Chapter 294 Are You Happy

PreviousBack to directoryNext
"Nothing." Shen Zhiluo suppressed the doubts in her heart and shook her head. She probably thought too much about why Su Nanjin appeared here. Then, she asked casually: "Do you know any interesting places in Jade City?"

This really bothered You Chen. He usually tried to avoid crowds when painting and went to some relatively remote places. He shrugged in distress: "I really don't know about this."

Immediately, he enthusiastically suggested: "Why don't we search online."

This answer really made Shen Zhiluo dumbfounded: "Okay, my car is outside. You come and point me in the direction, and I will take you there."

She tilted her head and motioned for him to follow her, without noticing the interested eyes of the man behind her.

Throughout the afternoon, the two visited the scenic spots recommended on the Internet. In the evening, Shen Zhiluo sat under a big tree, put his hands behind his back, and looked up at the sky.

The white clouds were ever-changing, and the clear sky opened up the field of vision. Leaves of different shapes fell from time to time. Shen Zhiluo breathed a long sigh of relief. She had not been so relaxed for a long time.

"Are you happy?" You Chen also sat down next to her and asked softly.

Shen Zhiluo was startled, with a hint of reluctance in his smile: "Did I act too obvious?"

"A girl who goes out to play without the enthusiasm for pure play must be because she is unhappy and wants to relax." You Chen said seriously.

He tilted his head and looked at her. His clear black eyes were pure and untainted by the world. Shen Zhiluo could feel that he was really clean. There was a trace of envy in his eyes. Her innocence had long since disappeared when her parents died. no longer exists.

Shen Zhiluo smiled perfunctorily, but had no desire to continue talking, and took the initiative to change the topic: "I remember there is a famous Western restaurant in Yucheng, and I treat you to a meal as a thank you gift."

Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, You Chen didn't force it deliberately, and agreed with great interest: "It's my pleasure."

He hasn't met such an interesting person for a long time, and the process of exploration is often the most interesting.

At the same time, in the hotel, a sad-looking man pried open the corks of bottles of beer, then raised his head and drank directly. The alcohol was so strong that the man turned pale and coughed violently.

However, this discomfort was nothing worth mentioning to Su Nanjin.

When he thought that Shen Zhiluo would leave him and fall into the arms of others, he felt that his heart was being torn apart. Heart-rending pain swept through his body, keeping him awake all night, and he could only use alcohol to numb his nerves.

"Zhiluo, I love you..." The gentle voice disappeared into the air.

After dinner, when You Chen sent Shen Zhiluo back to the hotel, he also opened a room for himself. He was originally an artist who wandered around in search of inspiration and had no fixed residence.

Coincidentally, the new room opened for him by the hotel happened to be right next to Shen Zhiluo. Such a coincidence, even You Chen couldn't help but smile, and then he held the room card tightly.

Shen Zhiluo is an intellectually mature woman with a story, which has an unparalleled attraction for him as an artist. Also, by virtue of being near the water, first come first, Shen Zhiluo and You Chen gradually interact more and more.

It was during the gradual relationship that Shen Zhiluo discovered that You Chen really looked like Su Nanjin at the beginning. That was the best time in her memory. Therefore, she did not reject You Chen's approach, but An indulgent, default gesture.

On this day, after You Chen and Shen Zhiluo walked around in the park, the two casually found a bench to sit down. At this time, he suddenly asked: "Zhiluo, are you really happy? ?”

Hearing this, Shen Zhiluo was startled, and in the next second, his delicate eyebrows were tainted with a smile as usual, and he pretended to be relaxed and replied: "I'm happy, why aren't you happy? I have food, drinks, shopping, and... Beautiful men accompany you.”

Her smile did not change, but You Chen was not fooled, and instead looked into Shen Zhiluo's eyes with a serious face. The originally pure and clean eyes seemed to have vortexes in the depths of the pupils for a moment, blocked by a black mist like ink. The inner emotions feel like being sucked into an abyss as soon as you enter.

He said seriously: "Zhiluo, there is no need to lie to me. Your heart tells me that you are unhappy. We are so close, do you really not want to talk to me?"

The smile on Shen Zhiluo's face froze and gradually dissipated. After a moment, she smiled bitterly, her voice low and no longer as cheerful as before: "Is it really obvious?"

It is an uncomfortable experience to hold one's worries for a long time. Shen Zhiluo also wanted to find someone to express all her worries and fears, but there was no one she could truly talk to with peace of mind.

Xia Xia had something to hide from herself, and it would be in vain for her to tell her. What's more, Xia Xia's situation was not much better than hers and she didn't want to burden her.

You Chen nodded heavily, his clean eyes full of sincerity: "Zhiluo, I didn't mean to make you sad, but I really don't want to see you pretending to be happy even though you are obviously unhappy. This is too painful. Already."

The last sentence completely touched the softest part of Shen Zhiluo's heart. Her expression showed a little confusion and vulnerability, and her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible: "Then can I talk to you?"

At this time, her petite body was shrouded in deep loneliness, which also made You Chen feel distressed. He couldn't help but raised his hand and patted her back, comforting: "Zhiluo, as long as you want, I will be there at any time." I can be your listener, and I hope you can be happy."

Shen Zhiluo had not heard such warm words for a long time. Her eyes tightened and she had the urge to cry. Then she blinked and tried to hold back the tears. Her voice was muffled and a little girlish. Capricious: "Then you are not allowed to tell others."

Seeing that she was willing to speak, You Chen was naturally happy and made a promise without hesitation: "Don't worry, of course you won't tell anyone. I guarantee it with my personality."

Hearing this, Shen Zhiluo smiled bitterly, looked into the distance with his eyes in a daze, and narrated in a slow voice: "I once had a man I loved very much. After I married him, I thought this was the beginning of happiness. But I didn't expect that it was the first step into hell. I even died in a fire because of it. I was in a coma for three years and lost my memory before I woke up. My family was also ruined because of it. So, I really hate him and want to give him cramps. I paid the price for bone extraction, but later... later I realized that the injuries I suffered were actually caused by him to protect me, which is really ridiculous."

Speaking of those unbearable memories, Shen Zhiluo's face turned pale and her expression was painful. This was the first time she told her original story to others.

You Chen listened and felt very sorry for what Shen Zhiluo had experienced, but he knew even more clearly that the wound needed to be opened before it could heal again. Being silent would only make the wound fester and leave traces for a lifetime.

Shen Zhiluo obviously understood this, so she finally decided to tell everything on her mind. She reluctantly smiled at You Chen and continued: "I really don't know how to face them now, so I can only use this To escape in this way, am I very cowardly?"
