Chapter 319: Dongli Shenghua

Wei Shuyi didn’t receive any reply from Jiaren Wu and was a bit worried.

He sent over a dozen messages to her, but all of them were like stones thrown into the ocean.

Wei Shuyi was a little worried. He took his car keys and planned to drive to Jiaren Wu’s house to take a look. When he arrived at her neighborhood, he realized that the lights were off on the fifth floor. His heart sank, and he immediately felt that something was wrong. He was about to call Kang Hui when his phone rang.

It was a call from Jiaren Wu.

Wei Shuyi’s eyes flashed, and he heaved a sigh of relief.

After picking up the call, Wei Shuyi heard Jiaren Wu’s voice. “Mr. Wei, I’m at the Public Security Bureau. Guess what? That Didi driver was actually a murderer. He wanted to violate me, but I caught him instead!” She sounded excited.

“The police recently put up a bounty on this driver. He’s unlucky to have met me and dared to touch me!”

Unlike Jiaren Wu’s excited reaction, Wei Shuyi’s expression was ugly. He was silent.

Wei Shuyi waited for the chattering on the other end to quiet down before saying, “I’m downstairs.” His voice was low, and his gaze was gloomy.

Downstairs?

“What are you doing at my place?”

“I thought something had happened to you.”

He had thought that she had been kidnapped or killed by those drug traffickers.

His voice carried the joy of surviving a calamity, as well as a layer of almost undetectable exhaustion.

Jiaren Wu quickly understood what he meant.

She hadn’t replied to any of his messages. Wei Shuyi was worried that something had happened to her, so he had gone to her house to see her. Jiaren Wu was slow to realize that the two hours she hadn’t replied to any of his messages had been a torment for Wei Shuyi.

However, doesn’t this mean that this person also cared about me?

After hanging up the phone, Wei Shuyi leaned back in his chair. For the first time, he realized that being a police officer’s boyfriend, especially one who was a narcotics officer, was not easy. Things like tonight might happen again in the future.

She was surrounded by danger.

Jiaren Wu walked on the edge of a knife, dealing with the most heartless group of people in the world. An accident could happen to her at any time.

Wei Shuyi asked himself if he could shoulder this danger together with Jiaren Wu. More importantly, if… if something happened to Jiaren Wu during a mission, would he be able to survive the rest of his life alone?

Ever since he was young, Wei Shuyi had accepted the concept of the one. He could only have one wife in this lifetime.

If he were left with loneliness and nostalgia for the rest of his life, could he endure it?

Wei Shuyi fell into a daze.

He thought for a long time, but never got an answer.

When Jiaren Wu returned from the police station, Wei Shuyi’s car had already left.

She didn’t expect Wei Shuyi to be so affected by what had happened that night. For the next half a month, they never met. Jiaren Wu would contact Wei Shuyi on WeChat, and Wei Shuyi would also reply to her. However, he never took the initiative to contact her.

Gradually, Jiaren Wu noticed something unusual.

As she was a police officer, her senses were sharper than most people.

She almost asked Wei Shuyi what he was thinking, but in the end, she restrained herself.

***

One day, Jiaren Wu was on leave.

She went to the classroom of the Medical University to look for Wei Shuyi, but he wasn’t in his office. She found out from the other teachers that he had gone to class. Jiaren Wu looked at Wei Shuyi’s class schedule and realized that he didn’t have any class that afternoon.

After leaving the office, Jiaren Wu prepared to eavesdrop on Wei Shuyi’s class.

As soon as she reached the school building, she heard the bell signaling the end of class. After a while, she saw Wei Shuyi. He walked out of the classroom and walked along the corridor. There were so many men and women around him, but he stood out. His figure was tall and straight like a white poplar, and his face was extremely handsome.

Jiaren Wu originally intended to walk over and greet him.

However, thinking about Wei Shuyi’s strange reaction recently, Jiaren Wu resisted the urge to approach him.

When Wei Shuyi walked out of the school building, Jiaren Wu closely followed him, maintaining a distance.

She turned on her phone and called Wei Shuyi.

The walking man suddenly stopped and took out his phone from his pocket to answer the call.

“Are you free today? I’m taking a break today. I want to see you.” She looked at the tall and handsome man. He held his laptop bag in one hand and quickly walked through the flowery path on campus. He took a shortcut and walked toward the office building. Spring had long arrived. Wei Shuyi had taken off his coat and sweater. He was only wearing a navy blue shirt and pants.

Along the way, many girls were watching him from afar.

Most of the students in the Medical University were boys, but Wei Shuyi was more dazzling than those boys.

With him around, the school hunk that was selected later on paled in comparison.

Jiaren Wu looked at him from afar. In her mind, the image of the seventeen-year-old Wei Shuyi kept flashing past.

Wei Shuyi paused.

Spending his life with someone was a big concept. Thinking of the long years without the company of another person, he felt fear. He was still unprepared.

During this period, he had been thinking; if he could cut off contact with Jiaren Wu like this, could he forget her?

It doesn’t hurt to not love, does it?

However, Wei Shuyi could not ignore her charming and playful voice. His heart was jumping with joy when he heard her voice. He wanted to try not to like her, but his heart could not be controlled. Wei Shuyi struggled for a moment before saying, “I… have classes in the afternoon.”

“Is… Is that so?” Jiaren Wu was stunned for a moment before a self-deprecating smile appeared on her face.

He’s avoiding me.

Why?

Does he really not like me?

Jiaren Wu began to doubt this relationship.

From the beginning to the end, she seemed to be the hot-headed one.

Wei Shuyi nodded and hung up.

Let’s wait a little longer.

If I still can’t stop thinking about her, then I would resign to my fate.

Wei Shuyi returned to his office. He put down his laptop bag and sat down to pack his things. Behind him, Mr. Xu, who was playing games, raised his head and said to Wei Shuyi, “I’ve long heard that Mr. Wei is in a relationship. It’s said that his girlfriend is especially good-looking. Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. I’ve finally seen her appearance today. Indeed, she’s really good-looking.”

Wei Shuyi paused when he heard this.

He turned around in surprise and asked Teacher Xu, “When did you see her?”

Professor Xu replied, “Just a while ago.”

Wei Shuyi lowered his head, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his hazel eyes. His gaze became uneasy. Wei Shuyi asked Professor Xu, “What is she doing here?” he sounded nervous.

Professor Xu was a little puzzled. “She looked at your class schedule and went to the school building to look for you. Why? You didn’t meet her?”

The fountain pen in Wei Shuyi’s hand suddenly fell to the ground, making an abrupt sound.

He picked up the pen and realized that the tip was broken.

Wei Shuyi hurriedly threw the pen into his laptop bag and left the office.

He didn’t see Jiaren Wu downstairs or outside the school building.

An uncertain thought arose in his mind.

That phone call earlier…

Wei Shuyi felt uneasy when he realized that Jiaren Wu might have been watching him when she had called. He quickly called her back, but no one picked up.

Jiaren Wu walked out of the Medical University and walked across the street.

When she crossed the street, a car hit her.

Fortunately, the car swerved in time and only brushed past her left calf. Jiaren Wu came back to her senses and looked down at her bleeding calf. She did not know whether the wound was too painful or if her heart was hurting, but she stood in the middle of the road and slowly squatted.

She used her hands to conceal the weakness on his face.

Her eyes felt a little bitter and hot. Jiaren Wu wanted to cry.

A dark shadow blocked the sunlight and approached her.

“Student, you are injured.” A cold voice sounded above her.

Jiaren Wu looked up and met a cold face. This face had a kind of beauty carved into it. Even though his expression was intimidating, that face was so handsome that it made people remember it.

She seemed to have seen this face somewhere before.

“I’m fine.” Jiaren Wu suppressed her discomfort and stood up. She had just taken a step when her injured leg suddenly hurt. She suddenly bent over and knelt.

A pair of strong hands held Jiaren Wu’s body.

“We’re going to the hospital,” a serious, flat voice with an unquestionable authority said that.

Jiaren Wu looked at the man and eventually got into his car.

They went to the hospital and simply got the wound bandaged.

Seeing that Jiaren Wu was fine, the man asked his assistant to give her a name card. He said, “If there’s anything, you can call me.” Then, he took out a stack of red notes from his bag and said, “This is my apology.”

All apologies were less sincere than money.

The man’s actions perfectly explained the meaning of his words.

Jiaren Wu looked at the money and did not reject it.

The man got his assistant to carry Jiaren Wu and even hailed a taxi for her. After watching her get into the car, he returned to his car. Once in the car, he said to his assistant, “Go and check if the car accident was really an accident.”

“Okay.”

Jiaren Wu limped back to her apartment and placed the money on the table. She roughly estimated that it was about 13,000 yuan. Her injuries were light, so this compensation was considered excessive.

She picked up the money and placed it in the drawer under the coffee table.

A business card slid out of the stack.

Jiaren Wu picked up the name card and saw four words—Dongli Shenghua.

Jiaren Wu stared at the words in surprise.

Dongli Shenghua?

Isn’t that the president of Shenghua Entertainment?

She finally remembered why this person looked familiar. It was because she often saw him on Weibo. Even if this person was cold, because of that face, which was even more striking than that of a male celebrity, he had garnered seven to eight million fans on Weibo. Since he was a good-looking fellow, Jiaren Wu had also paid attention to him.

She had intended to discard the name card, but after some thought, she decided to keep it.

The phone rang again.

Jiaren Wu took it out and saw that it was a message from Wei Shuyi. She then realized that Wei Shuyi had sent her many messages and WeChat messages, as well as two phone calls.

On WeChat, Jiaren Wu saw the messages that Wei Shuyi sent.

Wei Shuyi: [Where are you?]

Wei Shuyi: [A teacher at the office said you came to look for me, right?]

Wei Shuyi: [Sorry, I didn’t mean to avoid you.]

Jiaren Wu stared at the last message before replying.

Alluring Beauty: [You don’t like me and want to break up with me, but you can’t say it in front of me, right?]

Wei Shuyi sent a voice message.

Jiaren Wu opened it. “No,” he said. “I’ve been thinking about it lately. As you said, I don’t know which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. Your profession is highly dangerous. I’m not sure I have the courage to go on alone if you… if something happened to you. You know, a lifetime is quite a long time. It’s a terrible thing to be alone all the time.”

Upon hearing this, Jiaren Wu fell silent.

He was thinking about this recently.

She didn’t expect Wei Shuyi to think so far ahead. From his tone, it seemed like he had already decided on her. For a moment, Jiaren Wu felt both delighted and upset. Her fingers tapped on her phone.

Alluring Beauty: [Let’s give each other a month to think about this. If you still have feelings for me after a month, let’s be serious.]

Wei Shuyi: [Sure.]

Putting down her phone, Jiaren Wu wrapped her wound with a plastic wrap and went to take a shower.

As she was injured, she didn’t go out for the next two days and spent most of her time at the police station. It was another afternoon in the week when she was eating in the canteen when she suddenly heard a commotion. Jiaren Wu looked toward the source of the noise and saw a handsome young master in a blue suit holding a rose.

It was Lin Zhi.

It had been a long time since she had seen Lin Zhi, and Jiaren Wu was a little dumbfounded.
