Chapter 990: Chapter 990: Chen Zhinan’s Eyes Darken—Am I the Pit of Fire?

Chen Zhinan approached her, "Shi Qingqing! I’m doing this for your own good."

"For my own good? Do you know what would really make me happy? You keep saying it’s for my good, but you don’t even know what I truly want."

Shi Qingqing touched his cheek with one hand, "A man offering himself, logically speaking, there’s no reason to return him.

Chen Zhinan was completely stiff, realizing he was being toyed with by a woman who even touched his face.

"But, you didn’t want me before, and now you’re the man I don’t want. Please, Mr. Chen, look in the mirror, and by the way, scroll as far away as you can. Don’t you know appearing in my sight sullies my eyes?"

"Who taught you to say these things!"

"I truly mean it. What, Mr. Chen, you can’t handle it? Oh, back then, amongst so many people when I confessed to you, you didn’t ask who taught me, and I was truly embarrassed then! Mr. Chen, if you still care for my good, please get out of my world. If you don’t appear, I won’t recall the humiliating scene from four years ago!"

"Shi Qingqing..."

"Still not leaving!" Shi Qingqing released his tie and kicked his calf, "Don’t appear in front of me! I hate you, I despise you!"

She shut the door before Chen Zhinan could speak.

As proud as she seemed in front of him, that’s how desperate she felt inside.

Leaning against the door, she slowly squatted down...

Covering her mouth so she wouldn’t cry out.

Sui Sui was right, you can really feel whether a man likes you or not.

And she felt nothing from Chen Zhinan towards her romantically.

Four years!

Perhaps after another four years, she’d forget him completely. Why did he have to appear now!

Stirring up what she thought was a calm heart.

Her heart was so tired, so pained.

It was like the wound she always tried to cover was being torn open once more.

The sound of footsteps outside gradually drifted away; she knew Chen Zhinan had left.

Good that he left.

She hugged herself, curling up protectively.

——

She never expected that after returning to the Shi Family, she would see Chen Zhinan.

He sat across from her parents, discussing something.

"Mom, Dad!" It was as if she couldn’t see Chen Zhinan and went straight upstairs.

"Wait a minute! Come back!" Mr. Shi called to her, "Your former teacher, you don’t recognize him?"

"Oh, I didn’t see you just now, Teacher Chen, hello, and goodbye!" Shi Qingqing called out to him distantly and aloofly, "Can I go to my room now?"

"No!" Mr. Shi’s expression was stern, "You’re old enough, how can you still not know the rules? All the manners we’ve taught you, where have they gone?"

Shi Qingqing glared at Chen Zhinan, her mind as clear as a mirror.

This definitely had something to do with Chen Zhinan.

He didn’t like her, so why was he getting in her way?

Even bringing in her parents.

Did he think this would change anything between them?

She slowly walked over, "Is something the matter?"

"We’ve neglected to discipline you lately, making you more and more unruly! From today on, Teacher Chen will help us manage you well; you must listen to him in everything!"

Shi Qingqing was instantly dumbfounded, "Mom, Dad, why? Are you pushing me into the fire pit? Do you know how he’ll treat me? I don’t agree!"

Chen Zhinan’s eyes darkened; was he considered a fire pit?

Since when did he become a fire pit in Shi Qingqing’s eyes?

"Qingqing! Think about what you’ve done over these past few years!" Mrs. Shi also questioned her seriously.
