Chapter 19 - Repressing The Love In The Heart Everyday, Liking A Man That Has A Fiancée, The Love Will Not Be Requited
“The rain today…… is really heavy——”
Ye Jiacheng was the only person Shi Jian knew who could make a sentence have two meanings . Shi Jian tilted her head, thinking she might have overthought it, and shifted her gaze .
“What a coincidence . ” Ye Jiacheng greeted, his timbre refreshing, speaking at the moment when she was about to look away .
Shi JIan lowered her head and felt that Ye Jiacheng misunderstood her . She explained to herself with a muted tone: “Truly…… what a coincidence, I didn’t expect it to be you . ” She truly didn’t know Ye Jiacheng was the head architect of Junwei Park . Did running into him today mean that he and she were a pair that had mysterious intertwined fates? Thinking about it like that, Shi Jian inwardly felt joyous for two moments .
“En . ” Ye Jiacheng also honorably lowered his head, and cleared up his words, “I didn’t mean it was a planned coincidence . ”
“Oh . ” Then count it as her overthinking . Shi Jian made a noise in response . Ye Jiacheng said her thoughts aloud . She extended a hand and ran it through her rain soaked hair; it was nothing alarming .
Ye Jiacheng turned the heater even higher, forcing the dampness on her away . “There’s a towel in the storage compartment . ” Ye Jiacheng spoke again, then looked straight ahead and continued driving .
“Thanks……” Shi Jian turned and opened the storage compartment . There really was a white towel inside . She reached out to grab it, and saw what was underneath . There were two boxes of condoms . She gritted her teeth at seeing the brand of the condoms . She didn’t expect Ye Jiacheng to already be using this brand this early!
How on brand!
Shi Jian ineffably froze in place . Ye JIacheng turned his head, then subconsciously used both hands to move the steering wheel . He forgot that he left this kind of thing inside his car, and suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed . But these two boxes were bought the last time he went out to pick her up and felt horny .
That’s right, he was serious about wanting to fuck her .
Inexplicably, his throat went dry . Once someone became lustful, the flame at the bottom of their heart would flare up . Ye Jiacheng studied Shi Jian . He had wanted her to see the “two big boxes” some time ago . As a result, she stared endlessly . Can’t stop looking, can you?!
Don't tell him, she was just curious because she’d never seen them before…… Ye Jiacheng reached his left hand out and abruptly shut the storage compartment, not letting her look anymore .
Shi Jian’s face was red . She looked away .
“I bought them last time . ” Some things have to be said straightforwardly, so Ye Jiacheng might as well just say it . He always had the ability to upturn the heavens and earth . He dimly reminded, “On the night of my birthday . ”
So……
Shi Jian only felt that her breath was yet again forced back into her lungs by Ye Jiacheng . Ye Jiacheng’s tone revealed a bit of unwillingness . What did that mean? That he couldn’t use them and even blamed her for it?
Sigh, of course you were to blame, otherwise who else would it be? Ye Jiacheng drove slowly in the torrential rain . There was a large vehicle behind them unceasingly honking their horn . He automatically returned the honk . However, on relationships between couples, he was never a man who would hurt himself to make others whole . As if he was deliberately making fun of her, and as if he was blaming her, he continued: “If you think about it, these two boxes were bought for you . I’ll gift them to you! Do you want them?”
“……” Shi Jian stifled a choke .
Ye Jiacheng was satisfied; he had wanted this kind of reaction . The bad mood he’d been smothering these past few days was gone in an instant . The edge of his lip inadvertently curled up . He turned the car speaker on, choosing a relaxing and light song to help Shi Jian loosen up her feelings .
Jackass! Shi Jian leaned back in the shotgun seat . She could only admit that the present Ye Jiacheng was a master at handling affairs of the heart . Silently, she somewhat envied her original self, who was able to make Ye Jiacheng put away that player personality and turn over a new leaf, becoming an ideal husband admired by women .
As the car arrived downtown, the number of traffic lights increased . Ye Jiacheng received a call from his family . He used bluetooth earbuds to answer the call . Ye Jiacheng’s hometown was Qinglin City . The Qinglin dialect was ranked as the most difficult to understand dialect in the entire country . Ye Jiacheng didn’t worry that Shi Jian was next to him, and directly used the Qinglin dialect to converse with his mother .
Shi Jian used to not be able to understand the Qinglin dialect . However, as she was Ye JIacheng’s wife of a couple years, she naturally could understand some of it .
Ye Jiacheng and his mother’s conversation was about the fact that he was already twenty five years old, so he should soon “plan to get married and start his career” . His family never worried about the fact that he needed a career, but the part they were worried about was the settling down . Mama Ye asked: “Cheng Cheng, do you have a girlfriend yet?”
“Mom, can you not start with that sentence everytime you speak?!”
Mama Ye: “Isn’t mommy just worried about you?”
Ye Jiacheng: “……”
Shi Jian turned her head, not wanting Ye Jiacheng to realize she was “eavesdropping” . Probably because Ye Jiacheng truly didn’t know that she could understand him, he continued to say: “Mrs . Ye, don’t worry . Your son doesn’t worry about not being able to find a girlfriend . …… As a matter of fact, one is sitting beside me right now . ”

Shi Jian reached out a hand to poke at the corner of her mouth, using a bad habit to mask her guilt .
“@#￥%！#%%#……” Ye Jiacheng continued to use the Qinglin dialect, chatting with Popo1, “She’s pretty, and her personality…… is quite cute . ”

It was a bit sweet . Shi Jian smiled . So she was still in Ye Jiacheng’s good books .
“But she’s somewhat not normal, she’s a bit——” Ye Jiacheng continued .
Shi Jian was silent . A bit what?
Ye Jiacheng drove as he chatted with his mother . He finally thought of an appropriate adjective . in the Qinglin dialect, this word was usually used to scold someone when they were being dumb . He glanced at the shotgun seat in his peripheral vision, and said it out loud bluntly . After all, the person beside him couldn’t understand, right?
His mood was bright . Ending the call, Ye Jiacheng explained: “My mom called asking who I was with . I said it was a friend . ”
Is that right? Shi Jian turned her head, squinted her eyes, and asked: “Ye Jiacheng, why did you just say that I am not normal?”
Ye Jiacheng was momentarily stunned: “……”
His reply was still: “……”
He paused, coughed twice, and explained: “Sorry, I didn’t realize you could understand my hometown’s dialect . ”
“Badstard!” Shi Jian shouted in the Qinglin dialect . She couldn’t speak it well, but she knew Ye Jiacheng should understand it well enough .
Sure enough, Ye Jiacheng assessed her with a laugh: “Not bad . But your pronunciation isn’t accurate enough . ”
Shi Jian: Hmph!
Then, she thought Ye Jiacheng would ask her how she understood the Qinglin dialect, but Ye Jiacheng didn’t . He continued to drive, and didn’t consider it a matter of any importance at all, verifying that sentence he said to her that night: “I have no interest in you . ”
Because he had no interest, he naturally wouldn’t be curious .
Shi Jian was annoyed . Her mind wandered . She’d tried to do too much the past little while, and got the opposite of the results she wanted . She’d made Ye JIacheng lose interest in her . She remembered Popo said to her once, that Ye Jiacheng was a rebel, that people despised his cleverness . In fact, Ye Jiacheng had always been Ye Jiacheng . She’d just never experienced the bad side of Ye Jiacheng before .
Ye Jiacheng brought her back to the dorm . Shi Jian deftly unbuckled her seatbelt and even expressed her gratitude: “Thanks . ”

“No need . After all, we……” Ye Jiacheng turned his head, “Are friends . ”
Shi Jian nodded . Before she left, her eyes inadvertently swept over the storage compartment . She knew that she didn’t have wife status right now, so she couldn’t care too much about some things, shouldn’t care too much . But…… at the next second, Ye Jiacheng followed her line of sight and opened the storage compartment for her, “You really want it? Alright…… take it . ”
“……”
He thought she didn’t dare! The thing she was afraid of was that he would act recklessly . Shi Jian extended a hand and forthrightly took it . Then, in a spurt of energy, she said: “Ye Jiacheng, you took my advance payment . I hope you can keep out of trouble . Don’t be reckless . ”
Ye Jiacheng naturally understood what this recklessness meant . He looked at Shi Jian askance, how was she that cute! For a hundred yuan, not only did he have to save his heart for her, but his body as well? That many requirements, did he need her to help him resolve them?
Ye Jiacheng exhaled somewhat forcefully, then said word by word, “Coincidentally, I recently have been—— eating—— vegetarian . ”
“Alright…… see you . ”
Shi Jian stepped out of the car, bringing with her two boxes of condoms that were put into her backpack . Inwardly, she kept repeating: Matchmaker god, help me . Don’t pull random strings for Ye Jiacheng anymore . The female lead has already appeared, right?
But, what must she do to make Ye Jiacheng fall in love with her like in her past life?
——
In the general office, clenched her jaw as she listened to Emily speak about how she manages her husband . Emily married a good husband, and like all women with a blessed marriage, she especially liked to publicly show her affections . Weibo and WeChat Moments didn’t exist yet, so Emily could only show off her relationship while chatting . So after work, the thing that Emily liked the most was to start a conversation, then talk about how her husband spoils her .
Shi Jian sat right next to Emily, listening with longing and a clenched jaw . She truly liked to listen to Emily talk about her relationship, and then also reminiscing…… Emily finally finished talking about yesterday’s nutritious and delicious black chicken soup, and asked her how she’d been .
Emily knew that Shi Jian’s heart was occupied by someone, but it seemed to be a “one sided relationship” situation .
She was powerless . Shi Jian spoke with a sigh . The people in the general office basically knew that she just broke up . Emily had even more enthusiasm to find her a partner . She could only tell Emily that she wasn’t giving up on that man, and didn’t need a partner to be found for the time being .
“Pitiful,” Emily said .
Yes . Shi Jian acknowledged with a nod . She looked at her watch; she had to go accompany Zhao Wenwen shopping at Nanwan again soon . She already had her salary card in her bag prepared . According to Yi Pei and Zhang Kai’s idea, she and Zhao Wenwen should buy buy buy together . This way, Zhao Wenwen can enjoy herself .

Shi Jian left with her bag, inwardly feeling frustrated . She didn’t even greet Zhang Kai as she passed by him, choosing to ignore him .
Zhang Kai: “……eh?”
Shi Jian had been feeling downcast these past few days . Emily in the general office knew, and how could it slip past Zhang Kai’s piercing eyes? Zhang Xiaoxian was a female author Zhang Kai liked, and was an expert in meticulously describing emotions . On some things, he was even more sensitive than the average woman .
Shi Jian left . Zhang Kai entered Yi Pei’s office to discuss tomorrow’s work . After they finished discussing matters related to work, he brought up Shi Jian with interest: “It seems like Vivi invited Shi Jian out again today . ”
Yi Pei: “En . ”
“……sigh!”
“Zhang Kai . ” Yi Pei looked up and explained in a businesslike tone: “If you have something to say, just say it . No need to sigh like that and beat around the bush . ”
“I, I just feel that Shi Jian is a bit pitiful . ” Zhang Kai said, leaning half his body against Yi Pei’s work desk . His tone switched to one that would be used when opening up one’s heart between friends, “Pei, Shi Jian seemed to be feeling down recently…… probably because her feelings were hurt . ”
Yi Pei didn’t want to continue this kind of pointless talk, but he didn’t interrupt Zhang Kai .
Zhang Kai continued: “Say, a girl being made to do the thing she hated most by her favorite person, wouldn’t she feel absolutely tormented?”
“You looped around saying so much . ” Yi Pei tossed aside the pen in his hand, his arm leaving the tabletop . He faced Zhang Kai, his expression undisturbed as always: “What, you think Shi Jian fell in love with you?”
Yes, men with capital are good at pretending to be confused and trying to understand someone, right? Zhang Kai heaved a sigh, and said sincerely: “I also hope that the one Shi Jian likes is me, at least liking me is uncomplicated, right? Better than it is now…… Repressing the love in the heart everyday, liking a man that has a fianceé, the love will not be requited……”
Yi Pei was silent, as if he was stifling some kind of emotion . He picked up his roller ball pen again . Zhang Kai gave him a glance; it turned out Yi Pei didn’t not feel anything .
“Zhang Kai . ” Yi Pei spoke, “Go to Hong Kong in my place next week . ”
Zhang Kai: “Eh?”
“You may be too bored . ”
Zhang Kai: “……”
