Chapter 177: Brother Shi x Shen Qi, which one is the real her
Inside the restaurant box with elegant decoration and pleasant atmosphere.
Shi Mingting and Fu Jingyuan were sitting inside talking about an important business cooperation.
The two were university alumni. Shi Mingting was two years older than Fu Jingyuan and was Fu Jingyuan's senior.
Now the two are good friends and their companies have a lot of business dealings.
As they were chatting, the phone in front of Fu Jingyuan suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was his sister calling.
He greeted Shi Mingting beside him and pressed the answer button.
When he heard that his sister was coming to have dinner with him, he turned to his friend beside him for advice.
"Ming Ting, my sister wants to come and have dinner with me. Do you mind?"
The man waved his hand, "Don't mind, let her come."
Seeing Fu Jingyuan hang up the phone, Shi Mingting said, "Wasn't your sister away from Haicheng before? When did she come back?"
When talking about his sister, Fu Jingyuan smiled.
"She just came back recently. She graduated from Yuncheng University this year, and her father asked her to return to Haicheng to live and work."
"Oh, I heard Uncle Fu remarried recently. How is stepmother?"
Fu Jingyuan seemed to have thought of something and was distracted for a moment, until the waiter pushed open the door and came in to serve the food, he suddenly came back to his senses.
After the waiter served the dishes and left the box, he looked at the glass of water in front of him and spoke calmly.
"It's okay. I don't mind it. My sister is a little bit against her. She said she married my father because she liked him as a person, not because of our family's money. The two of them only got a marriage certificate, but didn't have a wedding."
Shi Mingting picked up the water cup in front of him and took a sip. "Yesterday, my parents urged me to find a girlfriend and get married quickly. Did Uncle Fu urge you?"
Fu Jingyuan shook his head. "I haven't urged him recently. He urged me so many times before, but I ignored him. I guess he knows that I don't want to find a girlfriend."
After staring at Fu Jingyuan for a while, Shi Mingting spoke slowly, "You haven't forgotten her yet?"
Do you know who Shi Mingting is talking about? Fu Jingyuan lowered his dark eyes and said nothing.
Seeing that his friend was silent, Shi Mingting knew what was going on, "She should not be in Haicheng now!"
Fu Jingyuan stroked the watch on his hand and spoke as if he didn't care.
"Yes, I happened to meet him some time ago."
Shi Mingting had admiration on his face, "You are really infatuated. You have remained chaste for her for so many years. I have never liked a woman before, and I don't know what it feels like to like someone."
Fu Jingyuan reached out and patted his friend.
"You're a workaholic. In your eyes, women are not as important as your work. But are you really planning to never date or get married for the rest of your life?"
"Well, I probably won't meet someone who makes my heart flutter in this life."
Hearing his friend's words, Fu Jingyuan murmured, "You never know, maybe you will meet the person who makes your heart beat fast soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the box was pushed open from the outside.
Shen Qi, wearing a red one-shoulder long dress, walked into the box with Fu Nanxi.
When he saw Shen Qi, Shi Mingting was stunned for a moment. He suddenly remembered what happened that day when he went to the Shen family villa.
When he saw Shen Qi's gaze heading in his direction, Shi Mingting calmly withdrew his gaze.
Originally, Shen Qi had a very sweet smile on her face, but when she saw that her ex-fiancé's brother was also here, the smile on her face immediately faded a little.
In order to leave a good and polite impression on Fu Jingyuan, she took the initiative to walk up to Shi Mingting and say hello.
"Hello, Brother Shi."
Hearing the woman greeting him, the man did not look up at his brother's ex-fiancee. He hummed indifferently and turned to chat with Fu Jingyuan beside him about the cooperation between the two companies.
While chatting with Fu Jingyuan, Shi Mingting inadvertently glanced at Shen Qi who was sitting next to him.
She was gentle and well-behaved today, and her voice was soft, completely different from how she was when she was drunk that night.
He is now a little curious, who is the real Shen Qi!
……
After finishing the meal, several people stood up and left the box together.
Fu Nanxi and Shen Qi walked in front, and Fu Jingyuan and Shi Mingting followed behind them.
As he was walking, Shi Mingting saw Shen Qi in front of him suddenly slip and fall towards him.
He didn't have time to think, and subconsciously reached out to support the woman who was about to fall.
A soft and fragrant body suddenly pressed against me, and my nose was filled with the faint fragrance of the woman.
The man's heartbeat accelerated unconsciously. He had never had such close contact with a woman before.
The two looked at each other, and an indescribable awkwardness instantly spread between them.
Shi Mingting cleared his throat twice and used the force to straighten Shen Qi.
Shen Qi hurriedly thanked him, "I was scared to death. Thank you, Brother Shi."
Facing Shen Qi's thanks, the man still had a calm expression on his face, "Be careful when you walk next time, and be safe."
He clenched his sweaty palms tightly and hid them at his side.
After they left the restaurant, Shen Qi and Fu Nanxi went to meet up with their friends and sing karaoke together.
Shi Mingting was originally planning to talk to Fu Jingyuan about work again, but he suddenly didn't feel like talking about work anymore.
"Jingyuan, I have some things to take care of when I get back. Let's talk about work next time."
The man never showed his emotions, and Fu Jingyuan did not notice his mood changes. "Okay, we'll talk next time."
After saying goodbye to Fu Jingyuan, the man walked to his car.
In the driver's seat of the black Maybach, the man spread out his big hands and looked at his palms.
When he was helping Shen Qi just now, his palms were sweating and now they were sticky.
Before, whether at a dinner party or in the company, there would be women who would take the initiative to get close to him, deliberately twisting their feet in front of him and falling into his arms.
Every time he saw those women's clumsy tricks, he would just avoid them and never let those women get close to him.
He is a mysophobe. He doesn't like being touched by others, and he doesn't like touching others even more.
But tonight, seeing Shen Qi was about to fall, he somehow reached out and caught her.
The most important thing was that he didn't feel any disgust in his heart. He shook his head and felt that he was overthinking. He went to help Shen Qi because his second brother broke off the engagement with her and he felt guilty.
My heart was beating faster, definitely because he had never been in contact with a woman.
Regardless of whether the person he helped today was Shen Qi or not, his heartbeat would probably speed up, which was a normal phenomenon.
Thinking of this, he took out a tissue and wiped his sticky, sweaty palms, started the car and left the parking lot.
