After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?-Chapter 198: Won’t you invite me in to sit?

Kissing, would you count it as mischief?

Shen Qingqing blushed.

Shi Yu had sharp eyes, and what he saw was something remarkable, like discovering a new continent.

He grabbed Shen Qingqing’s neck and shook her, "You better confess honestly!"

Shen Qingqing was dizzy from the shaking.

"Nothing happened, don’t overthink it."

The situation wasn’t stable yet, so Shen Qingqing wanted to keep it hidden. If things went south with Jiang Zhixun, she could act like it never happened.

Otherwise, if the word got out, it would be quite awkward...

Shi Yu snorted, "Not telling me the truth? You think I’m stupid and can’t see through it?"

These two definitely have some progress!

Jiang Zhixun was acting unusual, as if deliberately keeping a distance from Qingqing.

Qingqing too.

She wouldn’t even give Jiang Zhixun a glance.

The more they acted like this, the stranger the atmosphere got between them, just like young people falling in love for the first time.

Claiming innocence, who believes that?

"Come on, spill the beans!"

Shi Yu threatened to tickle Shen Qingqing, "If you don’t explain, see how I’ll deal with you!"

Shen Qingqing was most afraid of tickling.

She surrendered before even being tickled.

She took Shi Yu’s son, placing him between them to prevent Shi Yu from actually tickling her.

The little guy thought Auntie invited him to play, and bounced around happily.

Shen Qingqing pretended to use the Emperor to force the vassals, "If you dare tickle me, I’ll take him away."

Shi Yu laughed uncontrollably, "Take him away, go ahead, without the little light bulb, Chen Shaojie and I can indulge a bit tonight."

Shen Qingqing, still a pure maiden, blushed at these words.

Do married people talk so boldly?

Feigning calm, "Then I’m really taking him?"

"Sure."

Shi Yu pinched her son’s little cheek, "When Auntie takes you to sleep, be good, okay?"

The little guy said something surprising, "If I sleep with Auntie, does that mean I’m getting married?"

Shi Yu laughed so hard her stomach hurt, "You can’t say that in front of Uncle Jiang, or he’ll be jealous!"

"Is jealousy sour?"

"It is."

"Then why does Uncle Jiang drink it? What if it makes his teeth sour?"

Shi Yu patted her son’s head, "You’ll understand when you grow up."

With the little guy’s interruption, the topic was diverted.

Even though Shen Qingqing wasn’t honest, Shi Yu could see through her and Jiang Zhixun.

In the ambiguous stage, it’s normal to be shy about admitting it.

Glancing at the time, "If you’re busy you can leave first, we’ll be here a few more days, come find me if you’re free, we can go hang out."

Shen Qingqing had classes and other things to deal with, her free time was limited.

But since Shi Yu rarely returned to Beijing, she planned to make time, "You guys go out and play, I won’t tag along, but we can have dinner together and chat."

"Sounds good."

The school isn’t far, just a twenty-minute walk.

There are plenty of places nearby to eat, arranging to eat and chat together means more time with friends; this trip back to Beijing wouldn’t be in vain.

After a few more words, Shen Qingqing was about to leave.

Before leaving, she said worriedly, "If those people cause you trouble, take care of yourself and the child first, don’t suffer losses. If necessary, tell me directly, we’ll find a way together."

Shi Yu nodded repeatedly and hugged Shen Qingqing, "I’m fine, no need to worry."

Before marriage, she wouldn’t let the Shi Family get the best of her.

Now with a family, a husband, and a child that support her, she’s even less likely to suffer.

After sending Shen Qingqing downstairs at the restaurant, Shi Yu wanted to accompany her for a bit more.

"Why don’t we just take you back?"

She had a child with her, so Shen Qingqing was too embarrassed to let the mother and child see her home.

She patted the little guy’s head, "Go back, it’s so cold out, plus you’ve been wandering all day, the child must be tired."

Even Shen Qingqing felt her calves and achilles were a bit sore.

No wonder many people dislike shopping; at such times, Shen Qingqing kind of understood.

She waved and walked away briskly.

Unexpectedly, she turned a corner and saw Jiang Zhixun standing at the street corner.

The tall man in a black coat stood there like a pine tree. freēnovelkiss.com

His distinguished aura and handsome looks made him notable – it was hard not to see him.

Feeling guilty like a thief, Shen Qingqing quickly glanced around.

She didn’t see Chen Shaojie.

Jiang Zhixun stood still without moving, just looked at her, "Sneaking around, are you a thief?"

Shen Qingqing replied angrily, "Why are you here? Where’s Chen Shaojie?"

Jiang Zhixun raised an eyebrow, "He left me halfway."

Shen Qingqing trusted Chen Shaojie’s character.

Leaving someone halfway wasn’t something he would do.

"Did you say something you shouldn’t have?" She eyed the man full of suspicion.

Jiang Zhixun shook his head, "Didn’t say anything."

Chen Shaojie just figured it all out himself, he simply didn’t deny it.

So, it wasn’t deceiving openly.

Shen Qingqing knew she wouldn’t get anything from him and didn’t want to tussle with him on the street.

She turned to leave.

The man leisurely strolled along behind.

Keeping a distance of two or three people, he did nothing and said nothing, just kept her within his sight.

Maybe it was his intense gaze, or maybe it was guilt, but Shen Qingqing felt uncomfortable.

After walking a street, she finally couldn’t resist turning back, "Why are you following me?"

Jiang Zhixun: "Taking my girl home."

"No need."

If it was before, she might’ve been happy about this small gesture.

But now, Shen Qingqing found it made no difference whether he escorted her or not, because she could go home herself.

The year Shen Qingqing went to the Northwest to find him, Jiang Zhixun discovered she was more independent than he remembered.

After four years abroad, this independence hadn’t diminished but grown.

He felt a chest tightness.

And a bit of heartache.

Her independence was forced out little by little.

Jiang Zhixun took a deep breath, quickly walking to Shen Qingqing’s side.

With a smile, "I want to escort you myself, Teacher Shen, could you give me the chance to be attentive?"

"Can I refuse?"

Jiang Zhixun nodded, "You can refuse."

Shen Qingqing hadn’t spoken when he added, "But I insist, the road isn’t yours, no one said I can’t walk it."

She angrily threw her bag at his chest, "You’re shameless!"

"You didn’t learn about it today."

The man naturally caught her bag, his distinct hands hooked the strap, coiling it twice.

It was an ordinary move, but Shen Qingqing felt flustered watching it.

She felt like a lamb falling into a trap, while he was the predator, gradually inching closer.

Shen Qingqing didn’t know how she used to interact with Jiang Zhixun.

But her experiences with Zhou Hansheng were clear in her memory.

Apart from rare conflicts, they mostly got along peacefully, like lukewarm water.

Jiang Zhixun and Zhou Hansheng were not the same kind of people.

Their ways of talking and doing things were completely different.

Shen Qingqing clearly perceived this, no matter what she said or did, facing Jiang Zhixun’s shamelessness rendered them ineffective.

Thus, one in front and one behind returned to the dormitory without Shen Qingqing planning to invite him in.

"Give it back."

Shen Qingqing tried pulling the strap, but it didn’t budge.

She pulled again.

Still didn’t budge.

"Teacher Shen, aren’t you inviting me in for a bit?" The man was all seriousness.

"To sit in your head!"

Jiang Zhixun: "..."
