CEO's Secret Pet: Woman, You Can't Escape Even If You Have Wings
Chapter 39: Tensions
Jiang Xiyan walked into the room with steady steps, carrying food. His eyes fell on Shen Jingyan inadvertently, and she was sitting quietly in front of the window, leaning against the soft sofa cushion, staring at the scenery outside the window with empty eyes. The sunlight shone on her through the gauze curtains, as if she was covered with a layer of golden light, making her look even more beautiful.
Shen Jingyan's figure was elegant and charming, her long legs gently crossed, her skirt drooping naturally, like a blooming flower. Her waist was slender, yet she still had a feminine charm that made people fall in love with her. Jiang Xiyan frowned slightly, and a trace of doubt surged in his heart...
He patted his throat lightly with his hands, making a crisp sound, then took a deep breath, raised his voice by an octave, and shouted loudly: "Shen Jingyan, come and eat!" This sentence was like thunder, echoing in the air, as if it would penetrate the whole house. He stared at the door, expecting the figure to appear.
Shen Jingyan seemed to have woken up from a long dream. She slowly turned her head and her eyes fell on Jiang Xiyan. There was endless expectation and anxiety in her eyes, just like the stars twinkling in the night sky, bright and fragile. Her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she only whispered a question: "Xiyan, do you... hate me?" This sentence was as light as a feather, but it hit Jiang Xiyan's heart like a heavy hammer.
At this moment, Shen Jingyan was like a flower swaying in the wind, delicate and helpless. Her beautiful face was filled with complex emotions, which made people feel pity. And her question, like a sharp sword, pierced straight into the depths of Jiang Xiyan's heart, making him unable to escape.
Jiang Xiyan was slightly startled. He didn't expect Shen Jingyan to suddenly ask such a question. He put down the tray in his hand, walked to Shen Jingyan, and sat on the sofa next to her.
His voice was gentle and low, like a spring breeze blowing through Shen Jingyan's heart, making her heart beat faster involuntarily. She raised her head slightly and looked at the man in front of her, only to see that his eyes revealed a deep concern and doubt.
"Jingyan, why do you ask that?" His tone became gentler, as if he wanted Shen Jingyan to put aside her worries and answer his questions honestly.
Shen Jingyan took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She knew that this man had a special meaning to her, and she didn't want to miss anything because of her indecision. So, she mustered up her courage and said softly, "I just want to know how you feel about me..."
Shen Jingyan lowered her head slightly and pursed her lips, as if she was trying hard to control her inner emotions, and said softly: "I feel that you have always been particularly indifferent to me, which makes me a little overwhelmed. I really can't figure out what I did wrong to make you treat me like this." Her voice trembled slightly, as if she was afraid that the other party would give a heartbreaking answer, but at the same time she was full of expectations, hoping to get an explanation or comfort from the other party.
Jiang Xiyan looked at Shen Jingyan's aggrieved look, and felt a little distressed. He reached out his hand, gently stroked Shen Jingyan's hair, and said: "Jingyan, I don't hate you. I just..."
Jiang Xiyan hesitated to speak, he didn't know how to express his feelings. His heart was full of contradictions and struggles, on the one hand he had special feelings for Shen Jingyan, on the other hand he didn't know how to face this feeling.
"Just what?" Shen Jingyan suddenly raised her head and stared at Jiang Xiyan. A glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in her dull eyes. She was like a drowning person, desperately trying to grab the last straw, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiyan, I like you... What about you, do you like me?"
This sentence seemed to have exhausted all her strength. After she finished speaking, she felt as if her soul had been taken away, and she became extremely weak. She quietly waited for Jiang Xiyan's answer, but she was afraid to hear that answer. Time passed by minute by minute, and the air seemed to solidify, making people feel suffocated.
Jiang Xiyan was caught off guard by Shen Jingyan's words. He was inexplicably moved, but he tried to remain calm. He was silent for a while, then said, "Jingyan, don't bother me anymore!"
"Why?" Shen Jingyan's movements were gentle but firm. She slowly approached Jiang Xiyan and gently kissed his lips. Jiang Xiyan's body trembled slightly. He didn't expect Shen Jingyan to be so proactive, but he quickly responded to her kiss.
The two hugged and kissed, as if the whole world had stopped turning. Shen Jingyan's heart was filled with joy and happiness, and she felt that she was the happiest person in the world. Her arms were tightly around Jiang Xiyan's neck, as if she wanted to keep him by her side forever.
After a while, Shen Jingyan let go of Jiang Xiyan. She looked into his eyes and said, "Brother Xiyan, please don't be with Jiang Qingtian, okay? I really, really like you. Let's go out, okay?"
Jiang Xiyan knew that Shen Jingyan's feelings for him were sincere, but he also knew the relationship between him and Jiang Qingtian. He didn't know how to answer Shen Jingyan's question, and he needed time to think.
"Shen Jingyan, you'd better not have any expectations of me..." Jiang Xiyan hesitated to speak.
Shen Jingyan stared at Jiang Xiyan with eyes wide open, incredulously, her heart filled with endless loss and confusion. Her lips trembled slightly, with a hint of despair in her voice: "Brother Xiyan, I really don't understand, what exactly did I do wrong? Why do you treat me like this?"
Jiang Xiyan stared at Shen Jingyan silently, his eyes revealing a kind of helplessness and fatigue. He sighed softly, trying to make his tone gentler: "Jingyan, don't get excited first, calm down and let's talk about it, okay?"
Shen Jingyan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a bitter smile, and said softly: "How do you want me to calm down? Don't you know how important this matter is to me?" There was a hint of despair and helplessness in her eyes.
Jiang Xiyan looked at Shen Jingyan's sad expression, and a feeling of helplessness surged in his heart. He sighed deeply, with a little helplessness in his tone: "Let's eat first, and talk about other things later." After that, he slowly turned around and left Shen Jingyan's room with heavy steps.
As the door closed gently, Shen Jingyan could no longer control her tears and burst out.
"Xi Yan...!" She sat weakly on the bed, buried her head between her knees, and let the tears flow freely. At this moment, her heart was filled with pain and confusion, as if the whole world had become dark and gloomy.
Shen Jingyan stood there silently, staring at Jiang Xiyan's figure that was getting farther and farther away. Her heart seemed to be emptied, leaving only endless loss and frustration.
She murmured to herself, "Why don't you give me an answer? Why is this happening?" There was a slight tremor in her voice, as fragile and helpless as a leaf in the wind.
She didn't understand. She had expressed her feelings so clearly, why was Jiang Xiyan still indifferent? Did he really have no feelings for her at all? Or was there some other reason that prevented him from responding to her feelings?
Countless questions came to her mind, but she couldn't find the answers. Shen Jingyan felt confused. She didn't know how to face this situation, nor did she know where to go in the future.
Watching Jiang Xiyan disappear at the end of her sight, Shen Jingyan couldn't hold back her tears. The crystal clear tears rolled down like pearls that had broken off the string, wetting her clothes.
At this moment, she wished that time could go back to the moment when they met. At that time, they did not have so many complicated emotional entanglements, and there was only pure appreciation and love between them.
However, reality is always cruel. No matter how hard she tries, she can't change it. Perhaps, some things are destined to become only memories, and that beautiful feeling will be buried deep in her heart forever...
Shen Jingyan lay in bed, tossing and turning, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. For some reason, he just couldn't sleep. The night was dark, but he had no desire to sleep. He just kept his eyes open in the silence. When he finally felt a little sleepy, he found that it was already dawn. He was startled and hurriedly checked the time. The hour hand was almost pointing to eight o'clock.
She panicked and jumped out of bed in a hurry. She grabbed her clothes and put them on without paying attention to tidying them up. Then she ran downstairs and rushed to the garage. After entering the garage, she quickly found her car, started it, and drove to the company like an arrow from a bow. She was anxious all the way, just hoping not to be too late.
Shen Jingyan came to the company and sorted out some documents that needed Jiang Xiyan's signature. She took these documents to the president's office. When she saw Jiang Xiyan, her eyes were involuntarily attracted to him. Her eyes were fiery and affectionate, as if she wanted to melt him in her sight. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a gentle smile, that smile was as warm as the spring sunshine.
She opened her lips slightly and whispered in a very gentle voice: "Brother Xiyan, you are my gaze. I can never move my eyes away from you. Jiang Xiyan, even if I just look at your back quietly like this, my heart will be like a lake with a boulder thrown into it, and it will instantly surge with endless waves. The layers of ripples, circle after circle, are endless and cannot stop."
At this moment, Jiang Xiyan's face was expressionless, and his cold voice was like the cold wind blowing from the polar regions, piercing and heartless: "Shen Jingyan, I have told you many times over and over again, don't pester me anymore, you really annoy me."
When Shen Jingyan heard this, her voice instantly became tearful. Her body trembled slightly, and she said in trembling words: "No, Jiang Xiyan, I love you. I love you to the point of madness. Every cell in my body seems to be madly shouting out my attachment to you. I can't control myself at all. There is no way I can stop thinking about you and not get close to you."
Jiang Xiyan looked at her coldly without any emotion. There was no warmth in his eyes, as if they were ice that had not melted for ten thousand years. "That's your business. What does it have to do with me?"
Shen Jingyan screamed desperately: "So what? I don't care. I just want to get close to you regardless of everything. Even if I can only get a little closer, I'm willing to do anything as long as I can be closer to you."
Jiang Xiyan frowned, his face full of annoyance, and said impatiently: "Can you please not be like this, especially in front of Jiang Qingtian, can you restrain your crazy behavior a little bit."
