Chapter 1233: I’m Here to Pick You Up
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The intense pain immediately brought Chi Shuyan back to her senses. When she saw the familiar man in front of her, her face changed drastically again.
Under the light, she couldn’t see his expression clearly, nor did she want to.
It was just that when she saw this face, she couldn’t help but think of the ambiguous scene she had seen in the afternoon and how cold the man had been recently. Her heart ached.
But whether or not this man had a new lover, whether or not he had found another woman, had nothing to do with her now.
This man’s recent heartlessness and today’s incident had been like a blow to her head, making her see many things clearly.
She never felt that she was someone who couldn’t let go. It just took some time.
If this man hadn’t come looking for her now, she would have probably forgotten about him in a few days. She just didn’t expect him to come here so late to find her!
Chi Shuyan restrained her emotions and subconsciously wanted to break free of the man’s grip on her wrist, but his hand was like an iron vice. No matter how she struggled, he held her wrist tightly and didn’t let go; conversely, his grip grew stronger.
Chi Shuyan gritted her teeth and said coldly, “Let go!”
“I’m here to pick you up and go back!” After a long while, the man loosened his grip a little, but he still didn’t let go. His deep voice rang out. When he said the words, his eyes didn’t leave her face at all as he stared fixedly at her, his face frighteningly calm.
Chi Shuyan inexplicably felt that something was off about the man’s scorching gaze. She even vaguely felt that his mood was off, but she didn’t dwell on it. Her attention was all on what the man had said just now.
Chi Shuyan’s first thought was that she had misheard.
When the man repeated his words, Chi Shuyan finally got it.
But when she heard him clearly, her heart thumped fiercely and she was even more stupefied. A bitter smile also appeared on her lips as she sobered up.
Pick her up? Go back where?
Hadn’t he always wanted to break up with her?
She had disagreed before when he wanted to break up. She had finally given up, but this man said he was taking her back. Who did he think she was?
Was he playing with her?
Or did he really think she was at his beck and call?
If it were before today, she would have followed him obediently. Now, however, she didn’t want to have anything to do with the man at all, let alone go back.
Chi Shuyan’s face and eyes didn’t have the slightest bit of warmth at that moment as she looked at the man in front of her. She continued to try and shake off the man’s tight grip on her with a cold face, but it was too tight.
Chi Shuyan stared at her wrist, which was faintly red, and then at the tall man, who was still staring at her coldly. She couldn’t help but look a little tired.
She spat out coldly again, “Let go! Qi Zhenbai, I think we’ve already said what needs to be said. What is the meaning of this?
“I didn’t want to understand before, but I understand and accept it now. Don’t worry, I won’t pester you anymore after we break up. As for when you start a new relations.h.i.+p, that’s up to you and your freedom to do so!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Chi Shuyan felt the bones in her right wrist almost break again. The intense pain almost made her scream.
Qi Zhenbai seemed to realize that he had lost control of his strength and immediately pulled back a little, but the expression on his face inexplicably made Chi Shuyan’s heart thump.
In particular, the other party stared at her in a way that made her hair stand on end.
If she wasn’t very familiar with the man in front of her, she would have suspected that he was crazy.
Chi Shuyan didn’t know that when she hadn’t picked up his calls earlier, he had almost been driven crazy. Even if he hadn’t gone crazy, he hadn’t been far from it.
Chi Shuyan had always been very sensitive to danger. At that moment, she keenly sensed that the man in front of her was abnormally dangerous, and she couldn’t help but take a few more glances at him.
Despite his back being to the light, she could still see the man’s cold and hard face. On the surface, his expression was completely and scarily calm, but on a closer look, there was a hint of ruthlessness on his face. There was also a hint of wildness in his calm eyes.
It was just that the other party was very good at suppressing his emotions.
Chi Shuyan didn’t know why this man was so agitated. The more she looked at him, the more alarmed she became, but it was obvious that she couldn’t provoke him now.
She was really worried that if she said more, this man would directly crush the bones in her wrist, and she would ultimately end up in the hospital. The losses outweighed the gains.
As for arguing with this man, she couldn’t afford to lose face outside.
Realizing how dangerous and abnormal the man in front of her was, Chi Shuyan regretted coming upstairs without asking anything, and regretted meeting this man face to face.
It would have been fine if this man was clear-headed, but his condition was clearly off. How could she get through to him?
Chi Shuyan thought about the possibility of using the Immobilization Talisman. She gritted her teeth and said, “If we’re going to talk, let go of me first. Let’s sit down and talk!”
“I’m here to pick you up!” The man didn’t say anything else, but repeated himself.
Chi Shuyan didn’t know whether to choke or get angry. She took a deep breath and said in a better tone, “Let go of me first. Let’s sit down and talk!”
The man stared at her for a while before agreeing, but he didn’t let go of her wrist.
Chi Shuyan: …
Chi Shuyan really didn’t want to be entangled with this man, nor did she want to talk to him about anything. What was there for two people who had broken up to talk about?
After the man turned around, she directly threw out a few Immobilization Talismans and stuck them on his back. She stuck on five in a row, but they had no effect on the man in front of her at all. The man in front of her still held her wrist tightly and didn’t let go.
Chi Shuyan: …
