How could Yan Zi not understand what Shi Ze meant?
Her relationship with Shi Ze was a secret from Su Ya. Naturally, Su Ya had secrets that she did not tell Yan Zi either. Therefore, Yan Zi chuckled out. “And neither am I.”
When Shi Ze said that he wasn’t Su Ya, he was saying that he had no secrets he was withholding from her. Giving him the same reply, Yan Zi was saying the same thing.
He looked at her deeply before reaching out for that glass of warm water. Even though it was a small movement, it still hurt because his right arm was injured.
He then switched to using his left arm. When he saw how Yan Zi seemed to be gloating at him, he slammed the glass fiercely onto the coffee table.
Shi Ze’s anger had Yan Zi remarking in a resigned manner, “Honestly, I thought that you already knew who she was at that time.”
He replied coldly, “Su Qianxun introduced her to me as Littly. You told Lu Yanchen’s wife’s name was Shi Guang.”
“That’s right, her name IS Shi Guang! Littly is her nickname!” Yan Zi laughed out speechlessly. “Haven’t you always been keeping track of Lu Yanchen’s news? You should know that he’s married as well. If so, how have you not caught sight of a single photo of his wife? The previous two times when you mentioned her to me, I did not intentionally bring up her identity because when I saw how you seemed interested, I thought you wanted to be like Yang Chifeng.”
“Be like Yang Chifeng?” Shi Ze looked at her confusedly, most likely not understanding what she was saying.
“At that time, Yang Sitong was still Lu Yanchen’s fiancée. For the sake of Yang Sitong, Yang Chifeng had tried courting Shi Guang intentionally. Later on, he seemed to have fallen for her for real. But of course, I think Su Ya still occupied most parts of his heart, and should be the one he loves the most. I thought that you wanted to be like Yang Chifeng and try stealing her away from Lu Yanchen.”
Shi Ze scoffed coldly. “Courting? What a lousy strategy that reaps no benefits for all that effort.”
Yan Zi merely laughed. “Indeed, it wasn’t of much use! I think Yang Chifeng hasn’t given up entirely though. To you men, the things that you can’t get are always the most precious. However, there’re many women that Yang Chifeng is interested in. In that aspect, both he and Su Ya have quite an open mindset. Much more open than a woman like me who had grown up abroad.”
“You’re referring to how they allow the other party to go sleep with someone once a month?”
“Right.” Yan Zi was truly curious. “I’ve always felt curious about Su Ya. For Yang Chifeng, she disregarded every single bit of reason and logic, giving her all to help Yang Sitong back then. In theory, she should love Yang Chifeng a lot. If it were that sort of love, why would she allow him to go fool around with other women outside? She even agreed to Yang Chifeng courting Shi Guang to help Yang Sitong. But, if it weren’t love, why would she still continue to be with Yang Chifeng, even deciding to marry him despite the Yangs going bankrupt? I really don’t understand her...”
Shi Ze smirked with disdain and mockery. “Love? As long as their values align, it’s more than enough for them to get along with one another.”
“Our values align and we get along well together too. Is this love between us then?” Yan Zi smiled at Shi Ze, her eyes lighting with delight as though she was looking at some exquisite treasure.
He met with her gaze and gave a faint smile. “...”
Indeed, their values did align and they did get along well.
He had once asked her if she had any thoughts about him getting married with Su Qianxun. She replied that it was fine as long as he was happy.
