Case Handling Notes: Invincibility in the World

Chapter 22 Uncle?

Putting down his daughter, Chu Wuzheng glanced at Chu Jing's chubby stomach.

"How is it? Are you full?"

Chu Jing nodded vigorously. "Auntie cooks delicious food."

"Go wash up, your mouth is full." Chu Wuzheng patted her on the head.

Chu Jing went into the bathroom, leaving the two of them in the living room. Shen Shiyu had already got up and was about to say goodbye, but Chu Wuzheng sat down directly opposite her.

"Is the school easy to find?"

"Well, I took a taxi." Shen Shiyu replied.

"You also came back by taxi?"

Shen Shiyu was not in the mood to chat with him here, so he could only respond with a "hmm".

At this time, Chu Jing who had just finished washing his face ran out and lay down next to Chu Wuzheng's thigh. "We came back in uncle's car."

Chu Wuzheng pondered for a while. "uncle?"

"Uncle is Auntie's friend, and he invited Auntie to dinner." Chu Jing whispered.

Chu Wuzheng raised his eyes to look at Shen Shiyu, there was no expression on his face, but there was an indescribable gloom in his eyes, Shen Shiyu was inexplicable, and he looked hairy all over his body.

"Hey, go home and do your homework, grandma will pick you up later." Chu Wuzheng said to his daughter.

Chu Jing picked up her schoolbag and obediently entered the room.

The door was closed, Chu Wuzheng withdrew his gaze, stood up and stared at the little food left on the table and fell silent for a moment.

"Is there any more? I didn't eat either." He said something.

Shen Shiyu shook his head. "That's what I did."

"Then why don't you do more?" Chu Wuzheng asked.

"You didn't tell me you were coming back to eat..."

Chu Wuzheng interrupted her directly. "I've already said that I'm going to come back. You can think about it if you want to. Why do you use your brain? You're thinking about a blind date, right?"

Shen Shiyu was so aroused by his aggressive tone that he wanted to scream up to the sky.

Co-authoring that she was ordered by him for nothing and did a lot of babysitting work for him, but in the end she didn't even get a thank you, and she had to face the accusations he deserved?
Concerned about Chu Jing in the room, she could only lower her voice to talk to him.

"Chu Wuzheng, can you be more clear-headed? You made it clear that you asked me to cook for the children, and you didn't tell me that you were coming back for dinner. Why are you blaming me now?"

"Yes, you are clear-headed. You drank with others until midnight and slept on the road. How clear-headed are you?"

This sentence made Shen Shiyu blush with embarrassment, he really wanted to go up and give him a kick, and couldn't help but cursed "crazy!".

Seeing Shen Shiyu leave in a huff, Chu Wuzheng let out a heavy breath, and almost poked out the chopsticks in his hand.

But then he still used it to pick up the dishes, and ate all the remaining food on the table in a few mouthfuls. Every mouthful seemed to go down sideways, and finally all his brains were stuck in his chest.

When Shen Shiyu walked to the gate of the community, he found that Zhang Jie was still there.

"I waited until it was dark, how can I have a meal with you?"

He smiled honestly, even if Shen Shiyu wanted to refuse, he couldn't find an excuse.

The two chose a restaurant on the side of the street at random. Zhang Jie said he wanted to treat guests, and he also took care of Shen Shiyu's taste.

During this meal, the two of them did not drink alcohol, and the conversation was all about more realistic issues, including income and some views on love and marriage.

Compared to last time, this time it looks like a real blind date.

"Shiyu, can I call you that?"

"Yes." Shen Shiyu smiled generously.

Zhang Jie also laughed. "Actually, I've always thought your name sounds nice."

"It was started by my parents." Shen Shiyu explained. "Because it was spring when they adopted me, and it happened to rain for a long time, so my dad thought, 'Good rain knows the season'."

About being adopted, Shen Shiyu also mentioned it to Zhang Jie during the first meal.

"After my adoptive parents passed away, my brother and I were left behind. My brother is also in Beishi. He doesn't have any serious job and his personality is not easy to get along with, so my family may be more difficult for people to accept." Speaking of this, Shen Shiyu was very frank.

Zhang Jie nodded kindly. "Two people together are indeed the fusion of two families, so I am willing to accommodate your family."

Shen Shiyu paused slightly.

Seeing that she was silent, Zhang Jie seized the opportunity to express his heart.

"Shiyu, I like you very much, I believe you also have a crush on me, I want to try it with you."

His words became more and more earnest.

"You who study psychology will always see things too clearly and think too much, but as long as you give us a chance, you will find that maybe things are not as complicated as you think."

"But things are not as simple as you think." Shen Shiyu smiled bitterly. "What if I have someone else in my heart?"

Zhang Jie was stunned.

"I have a man in my heart, and I have pretended for almost ten years. I was with him before, but we separated later, and I have never forgotten him." Shen Shiyu's tone was flat, but his words were sincere. "I don't want to lie to you. The reason why I agreed to a blind date is because it is impossible for me and him, so I want to find someone to live with, so we are not suitable."

"Why? Because I'm not just for marriage?" Zhang Jie asked.

"No." Shen Shiyu shook his head lightly. "I don't want to use your sincerity as a bargaining chip to test my sincerity. It's not fair."

Zhang Jie called the waiter and turned down the heat, otherwise, looking at her through the heat from the hot pot, she would always feel foggy.

He was silent for a long time before speaking.

"I am very grateful that you can confess to me like this, so I also want to confess to you, even after hearing what you said just now, I don't really want to give up on you."

"Actually, the love affairs I have talked about before are also very unforgettable. For example, my first love, she abandoned me and went with my good friend. I couldn't forget her for a long time. Later, I figured it out myself."

"The process of figuring it out by myself was very painful. Looking back now, if I could have had someone by my side at that time, I should have been relieved faster."

Zhang Jie stretched out his arm and grabbed her hand on the table. "Shigu, so I want you to think about it, let me be the one who will accompany you, I want to accompany you out of the pain, just like helping myself back then."

His words were very touching. Shen Shiyu had been alone for too long, so it was naturally a lie to say that he was not touched.

But she did not agree to Zhang Jie.

No matter how much she deceives herself, she can't deny that the current love affair is the "antidote" Lan Youyin said to her, and she doesn't want to take advantage of Zhang Jie's sincerity.

She has already moved selfishly once in the relationship, and the punishment she got hurt her heart so much that she never dared to move again.

Zhang Jie did not give up, he took her home, stopped at the gate of the community, and held her hand again.

"At least give me a chance to pursue you," he said.

Seeing his car drifting away on the road, Shen Shiyu had mixed feelings in his heart.

In the next few days, Zhang Jie made Shen Shiyu understand what hospitality is hard to give up.

He would wait for her almost on the way home from get off work when he had time, and he would always prepare a cup of warming ginger tea for her in the car. When she was in the mood, he would take her to eat and go shopping. If she was tired, he would definitely Without further ado, send her home.

Zhang Jie was never in a hurry to confirm something with her, but would share some daily life with her every day, and then make a phone call. His pursuit offensive was not very violent, a bit like a long stream of water.

The two are developing well.
