The girl’s skin was fair, her chin pointed, her forehead full, and her eyes naturally had double eyelids. Her petite nose and the slight dimples on her cheeks were visible due to the pursing of her lips.
Yes, it was these features precisely, clear as day in his mind. Unlike his memories of other women, which were hazy no matter how hard he tried to recall.
Why did he remember this so vividly?
Why this particular face?
Qi Ziehen’s excitement got the best of him as he raised his hand, gently cupping the girl’s chin. He couldn’t help but scrutinize her, and the distance between them became ambiguous, even intimate.
Noses nearly touching, their breaths were almost within reach.
From a distance, they looked like a couple in the midst of a kiss, and what’s more, it was the man who initiated it.
Shen Yan couldn’t take it any longer. She bit her lip, her nails digging into her palm, and in her frustration, she rushed over and pushed Shen Wan forcefully.
Crash!
The glass slipped from Shen Wan’s hand and shattered on the floor. Due to the push, she also collided with the edge of the dining table, bowing her body, her face turning pale.
“You wretch!” Shen Yan cursed loudly, her eyes red with anger as she grabbed Shen Wan’s slender shoulders and shook her violently. “You’re trying to seduce Brother Qi! You’re acting all coquettish and slutty! Just like your mother, always shameless and thinking about seducing men!”
Shen Wan turned her head to avoid Shen Yan’s incoming slap, but instead of fully avoiding it, she used her shoulder to absorb the blow. From Qi Ziehen’s perspective, it seemed like Shen Yan’s aim was slightly off, but the fierceness and malice in her actions were unmistakable.
Qi Ziehen hurriedly stepped forward, grabbing Shen Yan’s hand as she attempted to strike again, and he forcefully pulled her away.
“How are you feeling? Are you okay?” His gaze was filled with concern and a hint of remorse as he looked at Shen Wan. She shook her head, appearing stunned by the sudden turn of events.
Shen Yan, after being pulled away, stumbled and hit the wall, causing her back to ache.
But no matter how much it hurt, it couldn’t compare to the weight of the blow that Qi Ziehen’s gentle and tender demeanor towards Shen Wan had on her.
It felt like having one’s heart ripped out!
“Brother Qi, don’t let that wretched Shen Wan deceive you! She’s just pretending!”
“Enough!” Qi Ziehen’s voice was cold, his expression like a frosty mask.
Shen Yan stiffened, feeling as if she had fallen into an icy abyss.
She had never seen such a cold look on his face before, as if she were an unforgivable criminal.
“It has nothing to do with Shen Wan. It’s what I want…”
Want want?
He wanted to confirm why he could see her face while he couldn’t read other women’s faces due to his face blindness.
But this explanation was a bit convoluted, and Qi Ziehen had to pause to find the right words. In Shen Yan’s ears, it turned into “I want.”
Want what?
Want Shen Wan!
Suddenly, anger welled up from his heart, accompanied by a pang of heartache, like a rising tide, threatening to engulf her completely.
“You want her?!” Her tone suddenly rose, crispness and liveliness lost, replaced by sharpness and accusation. “Then what am I to you? Tell me!”
The young man furrowed his brow, his perplexed and bewildered expression seemed to say, “Are you related to me?”
The most genuine reactions often hurt the most.
Shen Yan looked at Qi Ziehen with a mix of love and hate in her eyes, tangled in complexity. Despite this, she couldn’t bring herself to blame him. However, her anger still simmered, eager to find a way to vent, and Shen Wan became the best target.
With a hateful gaze, she screamed and charged towards Shen Wan, shouting, “I’ll strangle you, you slut!”
Qi Ziehen stepped in front, saying, “Stop it! I didn’t expect you to be like this, impulsive and foul-mouthed. Xiao Yan, you’ve disappointed me.”
There was no concealing the disdain and disgust in the young man’s eyes.
Though he couldn’t remember Shen Yan’s face, in their usual interactions, she had always come across as a lively, kind-hearted, and cheerful young girl to him.
Qi Ziehen never expected to hear words like “slut” and “bitch” coming from her mouth one day, directed at his own sister.
“Disappointed?” Shen Yan muttered to herself, taking two shaky steps backward as if she had suffered a tremendous blow.
“Yes.” The young man’s gaze was resolute, his feelings clear. “Your recent behavior has made me feel like you’ve become a stranger.”
The commotion quickly attracted the people in the living room, and they hesitated to approach, only watching from a distance.
“What’s going on?”
“Why does the atmosphere feel so strange?”
“It’s that girl from earlier, but why is Younger Master Qi supporting her shoulder? It’s too intimate, isn’t it?”
“Could it be…. Qi Shao doesn’t prefer Shen Yan’s glamorous beauty but instead has a soft spot for a pure and lovely beauty?”
