Chapter 49 Do I put a lot of pressure on you?

The man who had been so sick just now seemed to be slumped in his seat, but now he seemed to be awake, but not completely sober.

She held the car door with one hand, lifted up the hem of her skirt with the other hand, and quietly stepped out with her legs, as if as long as she didn't make a sound, she would be unnoticed and no one would notice.

The moment their eyes unexpectedly met across the distance, the two of them froze at the same time.

After a moment of dead silence, the people in the car were the first to react, stumbled out of the car, grabbed their small satchels and fled.

The clerk who had just bent over to find something from the shelf stood up and was about to scan the code when a black shadow flashed quickly in front of his eyes.

She felt a strong wind whistling past her face, and her bangs were blown up. She only had time to grab the bell in front of the door: "Sir! Don't you want any sobering medicine?!"

Ji Yanchen blocked people in an alley.

This alley was only 100 meters away from the parking place at most. Her physical fitness was still as poor as in high school. She bent over and gasped for breath, looking at him sadly, and sweat broke out on the tip of her nose.

Ji Yanchen was breathing a little heavily, but it was not for the same reason as her.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the delicate yet distant face in front of him. It was difficult to connect her with the series of stupid things just now. He couldn't help but taunted her: "You are the one who cheated in front of the police and ran away. Song Shiwei."

Song Shiwei snorted feebly, and because of the embarrassment of the just-completed chase, she felt like breaking a jar. She shook her weak legs and wrists and stood up straight to show her aura: "I am a law-abiding citizen! I have personal freedom!"

"Law-abiding citizen, why are you running?"

Ji Yanchen scolded her coldly, took a step forward and stretched out his hand to pull her, but she twisted her shoulders to avoid it, but the night breeze kindly sent a strand of her hair to his hand.

There was a soft prick on his fingertips, and his eyes darkened because of her subconscious avoidance.

He put away his hand and asked quietly: "Why are you pretending to be drunk?"

Song Shiwei gradually regained her breath and calmed down. She bit her head and said nonsense: "I'm not pretending, I just sobered up."

Ji Yanchen looked at her steadily and commented lukewarmly: "Your behavior of getting out of the car and sprinting for [-] meters is not something someone who has sobered up can do."

"..." Her cheeks turned red with embarrassment and she gritted her teeth, "Because a dog is chasing me!"

Song Shiwei ran a hundred meters inexplicably in [-]-degree weather. At this time, Song Shiwei was hot and depressed, and her lungs were about to explode.

She originally thought that as an adult with sound business ethics, even if he saw her running away, he would let her go out of embarrassment. She had no idea that he would be so dishonorable and would go out of his way to catch up with her and block her for the two of them. We are embarrassed together, what is he trying to do?

Ji Yanchen almost laughed angrily at her. He didn't have the experience of a drunkard, so he compromised and said, "Go back to the car first, and I'll take you home."

But she didn't appreciate it, turned her face away and refused indifferently: "I'll take a taxi back by myself."

He stepped back again and whispered: "It's too late, you are not safe alone."

Song Shiwei looked at him with a strange expression, wanting to say that you were more unsafe, but she still pursed her lips and held back.

The person in front of him easily guessed that she was hesitant to speak, and said helplessly: "No matter how unsafe I am, I am safer than a stranger, Prosecutor Song."

She said sullenly and coldly: "Not necessarily."

More than 50% of criminal cases are committed by acquaintances, and paranoid personality disorder accounts for more than [-]% of criminals.

He really wasn't necessarily safe from strangers. Ji Yanchen silently looked at the resistance in the person in front of him, his deep eyes becoming darker and darker.

Every movement and sound she made silently reminded him that all the progress they had made before was wasted because of tonight.

He just confessed his love, does that make her so annoying?
Knowing that if she was allowed to leave now, she would hide even further, Ji Yanchen made a prompt decision and calmly suggested: "Let's talk."

She refused as expected, turning her face even further, leaving him almost with the back of her head: "I don't want to talk."

They both knew it, and she heard his monologue in the car.

But even if this layer of window paper is already as transparent as possible, Song Shiwei still wants to pretend to be dead and hide on the other side, not wanting to pierce it.

But the other client obviously didn't think so. His eyes were calm and straightforward, not giving her any chance to escape: "What did I say that annoyed you today? At least tell me this?"

Song Shiwei lowered her eyelashes and remained silent.

She had no way to say it to him. It wasn't that she hated his confession, but the mixture of panic, confusion, panic, pressure and other emotions made her unable to cope and had to choose to escape.

Before today, she thought that his liking for her was about the same as her liking for him, so it didn't matter if she behaved a little more casually in this relationship.

But tonight his unexpected confession shocked her. For the first time, she realized that his definition and expectations of this relationship were completely different from hers. This made her feel extremely pressured and she could only escape by procrastinating: "...I am today I’m very tired, let’s talk tomorrow.”

Ji Yanchen lowered his eyes and looked at her face, and asked calmly: "Can I still get through your call tomorrow?"

The air of the summer night was sultry and quiet, and they tacitly understood each other in the silence. The subtext of his question was, would she hide herself again tomorrow, evade and reject his approach again?
Song Shiwei remained silent. She wasn't good at lying, and that was indeed her plan.

After a while, the person in front of him whispered again: "I'm sorry if I scared you today."

"I dare not say these words when facing you, but by chance today, you heard them all."

He paused for a moment, his voice a little bitter, "Do I make you feel a lot of pressure?"

Song Shiwei didn't say anything immediately.

Her answer is self-evident, but if she answers truthfully at this moment, he will definitely explain to her sincerely and promise to let her put aside her worries. With her current disturbed and confused state, it was very possible that she would be persuaded by him.

She didn't want this, she didn't want to be led by him to move forward in this relationship.

After a moment of silence, she opened her lips and asked instead of answering: "You are not my boyfriend, why do you say that to others?"

Ji Yanchen looked at her, his dark eyes slowly darkening.

He suddenly realized another terrible possibility. Could it be that her displeasure was not because of his confession in the car just now, but because of his sudden appearance tonight?

She pretended to be drunk not to get information, but to renew her relationship with her ex-boyfriend?

Song Shiwei didn't know the dark psychological changes of the person in front of her. She just wanted to make a quick decision and escape from this place of right and wrong.

"Your identity is that of a pursuer, but you have repeatedly crossed the line. It is hard for me to imagine that you will do anything more outrageous in the future."
