After her identity was stolen, she lived in the short-lived villain's phone.

Chapter 309 Shen Yanzhi Always Wants to Get Closer
Chi Yu's expression hardened as she looked at the girl standing in front of Shen Yanzhi.

She was very young and not the family member of the drowning victim she had seen on her phone.

Chi Yu immediately stepped forward.

Shen Yanzhi kept an eye on Chi Yu's movements out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing Chi Yu walking towards him, Shen Yanzhi immediately stepped towards her.

Yang Youyou had originally tried to persuade Shen Yanzhi to accept the 20,000 yuan, but before she could finish speaking, the man coldly left her behind.

Yang Youyou's gaze shifted, involuntarily fixed on the man's tall and slender figure.

Then she saw the man who had been distant and indifferent towards her walk up to another girl and even take the initiative to talk to her!

Shen Yanzhi couldn't help but look at Chi Yu's pale face and asked in a low voice, "Why haven't you gone to the hospital yet?"

He moved closer, his tall figure making a strong presence. As he got closer, Chi Yu seemed to smell a faint, cold, and aloof aura emanating from Shen Yanzhi, which felt completely unfamiliar.

Don't be fooled by how Chi Yu was able to chat freely with Shen Yanzhi on her phone before; that was because she had a disguise.

It's like chatting online with someone every day, having a lively and carefree conversation across the screen. But then one day, you're caught off guard and your secret is exposed, and the other person suddenly appears in front of you, leaving you both looking at each other in bewilderment.

Chi Yu lowered her eyes, deliberately avoiding looking at Shen Yanzhi: "I just told the salvage team the approximate location where the phone fell, so that it will be easier for them to salvage it."

Looking at the humanoid phone spirit standing in front of him with its head drooping, wrapped in a large suit, like an ostrich, Shen Yanzhi felt for a moment as if his heart had been gently touched.

Before realizing that the phone spirit was Chi Yu, Shen Yanzhi had often regretted that it was just a phone spirit.

After learning that Chi Yu was a cell phone spirit, Shen Yanzhi wanted to get close to her, but he knew that she had only transformed into a human twice.

On both occasions, he didn't have much time to spend with her.

He never knew that after the cell phone spirit became human, it was even more obedient, softer, more innocent and harmless than when it was a dough doll, and it was something he could touch with a simple gesture.

His childhood experiences and his later role as CEO exposed Shen Yanzhi to countless power struggles and conspiracies.

His dislike of socializing stems not only from his personality but also from witnessing too much selfishness and greed in human nature.

One of the main reasons he readily accepted the existence of the phone spirit was that, in Shen Yanzhi's view, even data that had become sentient was more beautiful than the ugly human nature.

He would rather deal with a little sprite than participate in the hypocritical and superficial social interactions of high society.

Even though he himself is a person.

But Chi Yu was the only one to whom he owed a debt of gratitude on their very first meeting.

After discovering her secret, he couldn't help but think more and more about how to help her.

If the previous dough figurine was a filter he created based on his obedient and sturdy little figure seen through the screen.

But even though she had become a human, the feeling she gave him was exactly the same as the cleanliness and purity he felt when he saw the little figure on his phone.

Chi Yu did not hear Shen Yanzhi's reply, but she could feel that his gaze was always on her.

She pursed her lips, glanced at Yang Youyou not far away, and said in a low voice, "There's something else I need to tell you."

"Hmm?" Shen Yanzhi noticed something unusual from Chi Yu's subtle actions, and the image of Su Chengyan whispering in Chi Yu's ear just now flashed through his mind.

Although it was Chi Yu speaking and he listening, before Shen Yanzhi's brain could even process it, his body had already honestly lowered its head and turned towards Chi Yu: "What is it?"

He also lowered his voice.

The tall, jade-like man bent down and lowered his head, his attention entirely on the young girl in front of him.

From a distance, the two appeared to be whispering secrets, seemingly trying to avoid being disturbed. However, a closer look revealed that their current distance was even more intimate than when Su Chengyan had just whispered in Chi Yu's ear.

When Shen Yanzhi lowered his head, Chi Yu noticed the rapidly shrinking distance between them.

Not to mention he spoke to her in a low voice, his tone familiar, as if the two of them should be intimate and natural.

Chi Yu instinctively wanted to dodge, but then clenched her fist and froze.

She stood straight and rooted to the spot like a cabbage in a field, replying to Shen Yanzhi: "The person who just kicked my phone off the bridge was a relative of the boy who jumped into the river, the woman who got off the first car."

Shen Yanzhi hadn't expected Chi Yu to say this to him. His eyes immediately turned cold, and even the atmosphere around him seemed to drop several degrees.

Shen Yanzhi hadn't asked Chi Yu why she fell into the river before because he had already taken the blame upon himself when he learned that the phone had fallen into the water.

Shen Yanzhi felt that if he hadn't failed to put his phone in a safe place beforehand, the phone spirit wouldn't have suffered this fate.

Shen Yanzhi never expected that the phone spirit wouldn't have been accidentally knocked down by a passerby, but rather that it had been deliberately kicked down!

His expression was stern. "I'll call the police right away."

Shen Yanzhi looked at Chi Yu. He originally wanted to take her hand. This was a habit he often had when facing the little figure on his phone, and he couldn't help but touch it through the screen.

But he stopped himself as soon as he raised his hands slightly.

He said coldly and solemnly, "Don't worry, I will make sure she gives you an explanation for this!"

Chi Yu looked up and glanced at Shen Yanzhi with some surprise.

He completely believed her after she only said one sentence?

Before Chi Yu could react, Shen Yanzhi had already straightened up.

The distance between the two widened, and upon seeing this, Su Chengyan immediately walked over.

Shen Yanzhi asked Su Chengyan to take Chi Yu to the hospital, leaving this matter to him.

Su Chengyan was initially curious about what Chi Yu and Shen Yanzhi had just said, but he also knew that they had already been there for too long.

Su Chengyan nodded in agreement, but Chi Yu suggested that Shen Yanzhi go up with them to change into the clean clothes that Su Chengyan had just mentioned.

Retrieving the phone will take time, and given that the other party deliberately kicked his phone into the river, it will be necessary to contact the police and report the incident. There might even be a confrontation at the police station. Shen Yanzhi's wet clothes certainly don't look good.

Shen Yanzhi did not refuse and followed the brother and sister to Su Chengyan's car.

Su Chengyan took out his clean clothes and gave them to Shen Yanzhi to change into.

Then, he drove away with Chi Yu.

Watching the black Mercedes gradually merge into the traffic, Shen Yanzhi withdrew his gaze and returned to the riverbank.

Just then, Chen Jin arrived with his men: "President Shen, I've brought the salvage team you requested."

There were too many onlookers by the river, which seriously affected the traffic in the vicinity.

Traffic police arrived to maintain order after receiving the message, which forced Chen Jin and his salvage team to park their vehicle a little further away as instructed by the police.

This is what slowed down their arrival time.

　Both chapters will be revised. This is really the first time I've written a storyline focusing on the romance between the male and female leads. If you find anything uncomfortable, please comment and I'll revise accordingly.
