Chapter 1690: Strangle Him

The voice suddenly came out of nowhere . Ye Qianqian was shocked out of her wits .

She jumped back in fright before regaining her senses . In a hushed tone, she admonished, “You scared me to death!”

Shen Zhilie got up from the couch . He was topless and looked very cool .

He looked at Ye Qianqian and shone the torchlight from his cellphone toward her as she walked over .

Ye Qianqian tiptoed and said, “I can’t be bothered with you . I’m going to the bathroom . ”

“Alright . ”

Ye Qianqian found the atmosphere a little peculiar . She was feeling unsettled .

The surroundings were dark and black without any lights switched on . The air carried the smell of damp grass . It was very pleasing to the senses .

When Ye Qianqian heard Shen Zhilie’s reply, she used the flashlight function from her cell phone to light the way to the bathroom .

When she was done in the bathroom and emerged, she found Shen Zhilie seated on a stone stool in the yard .

Ye Qianqian walked over to where he was sat beside him . “Can’t sleep?” she asked .

“Yeah . Perhaps I’m just a little too excited . ” Shen Zhilie’s voice was a little raspy . He turned to glance at Ye Qianqian . “Your father seems to like me very much . ”

At the mention of that, Ye Qianqian felt even more unsettled . She quickly looked away and came up with an excuse . “It’s my first time bringing a boyfriend back . Even if you were a pig, he’d think you were great . You have no idea how worried he’s been that I might never get married . He was so anxious that he was on the verge of asking Fang Tongtong’s mother to set me up with someone . ”

As she spoke, she turned to look back at him .

The air in this small town had remained unpolluted . The moonlight on this summer night was especially bright and clear .

Under the moonlight, Ye Qianqian could clearly see Shen Zhilie’s eyes gazing at her .

Her heartbeat sped up without warning . Ye Qianqian fidgeted at little . With a gentle cough, she said, “Fang Tongtong is the girl you saw earlier today . She’s been my best friend since I was a kid . My BFF, so to speak . ”

“Yeah, I could tell that the two of you are very close . ”

“Indeed . In the past few years, due to us being in different places, we’ve hardly had the chance to meet up as much . If this had been in the past, we would have gotten physical in our arguments . ”

The corners of Shen Zhilie’s lips lifted in a smile . He made a hum of acknowledgment .

That low sound he emitted was unbelievably sexy .

Ye Qianqian was having a hard time suppressing herself . Her heart felt as if it was running on a motor . It kept speeding up and refused to slow down .

If this continued, wasn’t she going to die of a sudden heart attack?

Ye Qianqian stood up and faked a loud yawn . She said, “I’m tired . Let’s talk tomorrow . You should get some sleep soon . ”

“Qianqian . ”

“Yeah?” Ye Qianqian lowered her head and looked at him . Shen Zhilie sudden reached out and lightly held her hand .

His action was very gentle, almost as light as a feather .

Ye Qianqian felt her face heat up as she looked at him . She took a step back .

What was he up to?

Was he going to kiss her?

It was so late at night, and it was dark out . They were a single man and woman alone…

However, just as Ye Qianqian’s thoughts began veering off-tangent, Shen Zhilie suddenly released her .

“Good night . I’ll sit out here for a little longer . ”

That was it?

That was it??

Ye Qianqian felt so flustered at that moment . That was it?

Ye Qianqian felt as if there was a weight on her chest . Without another word, she turned around and stomped back into the bedroom .

Bloody hell! Stupid man!

Her steps were heavy . As Shen Zhilie watched her from behind, the smile on his face deepened .

He turned away and faced the moon with satisfaction brimming in his eyes .

Ye Qianqian had no idea that she had just fallen into a trap laid out by Shen Zhilie . Her heart was feeling empty . She laid in bed and lifted the covers over her head . She kicked the mattress in exasperation . She wanted to just strangle him!

Calm down… Calm down…
