Three gazes fell upon Shen Jianxi from three different directions. She froze in place, feeling an urge to flee but with nowhere to go.
"Heh heh..." She let out a dry chuckle, her eyes scanning the surroundings before finally settling on the ground. "I was just joking, you guys. Why so serious?"
Her laughter died abruptly amidst the three stern expressions. Shen Jianxi lowered her head, took a large step back, and respectfully extended her hand.
"You guys talk, I'll be going now." With that, she looked for an opportunity and tried to dash towards the door.
Before she could take a few steps, a strong tug on the back of her neck stopped her dead in her tracks, forcing her to pivot in place.
Shen Jianxi turned her head and saw her collar being held by a certain dog surnamed Qin. When their eyes met, he deliberately dangled her collar.
Qin Lang, who was indeed preparing to do just that: ...
After saying this, Xiaer glanced at Qin Lang's choked expression, let out a snort, and walked out. Before closing the door, he didn't forget to hide his tail and put on a hat to cover his ears.
After the two left, Feng Chuyao pulled her directly into the car. No matter what she asked along the way, he didn't answer. After a while, Shen Jianxi gave up trying to talk and adjusted her seat to a comfortable angle, closing her eyes to rest.
Seeing her carefree demeanor, Feng Chuyao's anger intensified. He floored the accelerator, the sudden increase in speed forcing Shen Jianxi to grip her seatbelt.
Fortunately, there weren't many people or cars on this road, otherwise, there would have been an accident. (PS: Do not imitate this behavior, reckless driving brings sorrow to loved ones!!!)
As they drove, the tall buildings outside gradually disappeared, replaced by farmland, and then even the farmland vanished.
They were driving further and further into the wilderness.
The car's speed slowed down at some point, and Feng Chuyao only stopped when they reached a desolate open space.
He was the first to open his door and get out, then walked around to Shen Jianxi's side, opened her door, and looked at the person in the passenger seat with a stern expression. "Get out."
Shen Jianxi looked at his expression and then at their surroundings, feeling hesitant.
Would this person... fly into a rage and try to silence her?
She hesitated, reluctant to get out. Feng Chuyao, however, had lost his patience. Seeing her dawdling, he simply stepped forward and pulled her out.
Shen Jianxi got out of the car with great reluctance. As soon as she was steady, she leaped back a large step.
"Just like this!" She held up her hands and gestured between them. "You stand here."
Then, looking him directly in the eyes, she said with utter sincerity, "People need personal space."
Feng Chuyao: ???
He laughed in anger and deliberately leaned closer. The moment he moved, the girl in front of him moved even faster to put distance between them. Sudan Novel Network.
Feng Chuyao wasn't in the mood for a chase game now. He stood there with a dark expression.
"Do you have anything to explain? It's only been one day..." Feng Chuyao's throat tightened, still incredulous. "I need a reason. No one will disturb us here, just tell me, and I'll listen."
Shen Jianxi could no longer hear the rest of his words. Her mind was consumed by the phrase "only one day."
"How is that possible..." she whispered in disbelief.
"What?"
Her voice was so low that even though Feng Chuyao was standing opposite her, he couldn't hear it clearly and had to lean forward.
Shen Jianxi, in a daze, said, "My phone... can I borrow your phone?"
She had left in such a hurry that she hadn't grabbed her phone. Now, she had to use Feng Chuyao's.
Feng Chuyao's burning anger was abruptly interrupted. Seeing her unusual expression, he could only suppress his frustration and hand over the phone.
Shen Jianxi eagerly took it, opened the screen, and the date was clearly displayed, leaving her no choice but to believe.
"It's real..." She took a deep breath, looking even more closely. "...it's really only been one day."
This temporal flow, it had changed again!
To her, months had passed, but to Feng Chuyao, it had only been a day since that night.
"Are you done looking? Can you explain now?" Feng Chuyao took back his phone. His tone had calmed considerably after this ordeal.
"I..." Shen Jianxi was conflicted. How could she explain this? If she told the truth, she'd be considered crazy. "This..."
The man said gently, "Take your time, no rush."
"You can make it up, I'll listen."
Shen Jianxi: ...
She pursed her lips and smiled, trying to appear as innocent as possible to make her words more believable.
"Actually, there's nothing between us, do you believe me?"
"What do you think?"
The man crossed his arms, his eyes looking up slightly.
"Then let's break up." Shen Jianxi gave up. "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. This is the situation. Perhaps you can be more open-minded. I like all of you, and I don't want to give up anyone."
"Shen Jianxi!"
Three angry roars echoed through the sky.
