Chapter 142 Belated Confession
Chapter 142 Belated Confession
In the evening when the lights are just coming on, light and shadows float on the wall.
After a long time, all the ambiguous sounds in the charming room came to an abrupt end.
Mu Jingyan took a long breath, with a look of unprecedented satisfaction on his face.
"Honey, thank you for your hard work."
Shi Jun nestled in his arms, his voice filled with breathlessness that hadn't completely calmed down yet.
"Are you hungry now? If not, I'll take a nap."
"I'm not hungry. You just fed me."
"......." This guy can really talk dirty anytime and anywhere!
Shi Jun had not fallen asleep for long when he was woken up by the ringing of the cell phone next to him.
In a daze, he didn't look to see who was calling and fumbled to answer the call.
"Hey..."
There was a husky voice, and the person on the other end of the line hesitated for a few seconds.
"It's still so early? Have you gone to bed?"
"Jiang Shuyang?"
"Well, it's me."
Shi Jun recognized his voice and opened his eyes, just in time to meet Mu Jingyan's inquiring gaze.
"Why did he call again?"
Shi Jun covered the microphone and sat up on the bed with an annoyed expression.
"how could I know."
Last time I said we were not friends, but classmates. The call had already been connected. If I hung up again, it would mean that our relationship would be completely broken.
Shi Jun released the microphone he was covering, his voice sounding deliberately distant.
"What's the matter with you calling?"
"Shi Jun, are you still mad at me? I called you these days, but you didn't answer. You always said you were busy when I sent you messages."
Before Shi Jun could say anything, the person on the other end of the phone added another sentence.
"I'm in Yuncheng now, in the lobby of the hotel you're staying in. Can you come down so we can meet?"
"Did He Yao tell you that I live here?"
"Shi Jun, can you please come down? I have something to say to you in person."
Jiang Shuyang did not answer his question, and Shi Jun confirmed his guess in his words that did not deny it.
The He family has been looking for opportunities to attack him and Mu Jingyan, so Shi Jun has to be on guard. Besides, he really doesn't want to see Jiang Shuyang.
In the past, he regarded Jiang Shuyang as his best friend. Even if Jiang Shuyang showed a little bit of unhappiness in front of him, he would try to comfort him with flattery.
Perhaps he valued his friend Jiang Shuyang too much at that time, so that conversation made him unable to forgive him until now.
"I'm not very convenient right now. If you have anything to say, can't you say it on the phone?"
"Shi Jun, please, I rushed here from Yan City just to see you. I really have something to say, and I want to talk to you face to face."
There was a pleading tone in the softened voice on the other end of the phone. Shi Jun hesitated, glanced at Mu Jingyan beside him, and reluctantly agreed.
"Okay, I'll be down in about ten minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Mu Jingyan got out of bed with him.
"I'll accompany you."
I thought he would object and went to see Jiang Shuyang by myself, but I didn't expect him to be so calm.
Before leaving, Shi Jun asked him, "I promised to go downstairs to meet him, aren't you angry?"
"Angry, but I said, no matter what you do, I'll stand by you."
Shi Jun raised the corner of his lips teasingly: "That's really unfair to you."
"If my wife feels that I've been wronged, you can consider giving me a little reward in the evening."
"You are so beautiful."
In the lobby on the first floor, Jiang Shuyang saw Shi Jun coming out of the elevator and walked towards him happily. When he saw Mu Jingyan who came out of the elevator a step later, the corners of his lips straightened instantly.
"Shi Jun, why did you bring him here too?"
A faint smell of alcohol lingered in his nostrils, and Shi Jun looked at him for a few seconds.
"you've been drinking?"
"Well, when I first arrived in Cloud City at noon, I had lunch with friends and drank a little."
Shi Jun guessed that the so-called friend he was talking about was He Yao, and remained silent.
Jiang Shuyang turned his gaze again to Mu Jingyan beside him.
"Shi Jun, can we talk alone? I don't want anyone else to be around."
When Mu Jingyan heard his words, he snorted coldly and looked at him.
"Do you have any self-awareness? Among the three of us, you are the outsider, okay?"
However, since Shi Jun was allowed to come down to see him, Mu Jingyan didn't want to embarrass Shi Jun. He looked around and didn't see any suspicious people, so he pointed to the sofa not far away.
"I'm going to sit over there for a while. When you're done talking to him, come find me and we'll go eat."
If it were the old Mu Jingyan, he would never be so kind as to let him be alone with another boy.
Shi Jun was not used to his own obedience in front of him today for a few seconds.
"Why did you suddenly become so perceptive?"
"Because I..."
Mu Jingyan was halfway through his words when he glanced at Jiang Yangshu and whispered something in Shi Jun's ear in a deliberately ambiguous tone.
"I still want a reward, and you promised me that you wouldn't let green stain my hair."
"..."
Although Mu Jingyan was not sitting with them, they were within each other's sight.
After Shi Jun sat down, he didn't look at Jiang Shuyang opposite him, but stared in the direction of Mu Jingyan.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Shi Jun, if you don't like me being in contact with He Yao, I won't contact him anymore. Please don't be angry with me, okay?"
Shi Jun finally withdrew his gaze and looked towards him.
"You asked me to come down just to say this?"
Jiang Shuyang shook his head, glanced in the direction of Mu Jingyan, gritted his teeth, and spoke as if he had made a decision.
"Shi Jun, I like you."
"The reason I contacted He Yao is because I like you. I want to know what I can do to make Mu let you go."
"You..." Shi Jun looked at him in disbelief, "You like me?"
"Yes, I fell in love with you when we first started school. I sat with you because I had some selfish motives."
"I know your mother is in poor health, so I wanted to wait for the right opportunity to confess my feelings to you, but I didn't expect..."
Jiang Shuyang said this and glanced hatefully in the direction of Mu Jingyan.
"But I didn't expect that he would take you for himself."
"Shi Jun, you and him are not suitable, can you leave him?"
Shi Jun finally came back to his senses from the shock that he liked her, curled his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"Jiang Shuyang, what does it mean for two people to be together?"
"He's much older than you."
Shi Jun curled his lips again and looked in the direction of Mu Jingyan. He happened to meet Mu Jingyan's eyes who was looking at him, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
"I feel it's good to be older. He's good at pampering people, and he'll take care of a lot of things, so I don't need to worry about it."
"Shi Jun, I can do it too. If you are willing to be with me, I can spoil you even more than he does."
Shi Jun retracted his gaze, turned his head and looked directly into his eyes.
"But Jiang Shuyang, I don't like you. I only ever regard you as my best brother."
"What about him? Are you with him because you like him?" Jiang Shuyang's expression was hurt, mixed with resentment, "He treated you like that before."
"I don't know, but he and I are engaged. We are husband and wife now."
"So what if you're engaged? You haven't got a marriage certificate yet."
"Shi Jun, if you promise to leave him and be with me, I won't mind the fact that you were engaged to him."
