Chapter 116 - 116 Rejecting A Gift

116 Rejecting A Gift

Shen Yin stopped in her tracks when she heard that. She turned around and looked at Cheng Huo without batting an eyelid. “President Cheng, since you already has a girlfriend, you should keep a distance from other women. I don’t want to experience another disaster like today.”

When Cheng Huo heard that, he reached out to take her arm.

However, Shen Yin nimbly avoided him. She turned around and got into the taxi with Zheng Ling, preparing to return to the police station and get back to work. She did not give Cheng Huo any chance to explain, leaving him standing there awkwardly.

Cheng Huo only retracted his hand after a while. He clenched his hand into a fist then said with a slight smile. “I won’t let you off so easily.”

Shen Yin and Zheng Ling had just arrived at the office when they saw Meng Heng waiting at the door.

Zheng Ling cleared her throat and entered the office first. Only the two of them were left in the quiet corridor.

Meng Heng took a step closer to her, but cautiously kept his distance. He scratched his head and asked with concern, “About what happened this afternoon… Are you alright? Are you injured?”

Shen Yin looked at him in confusion. “How do you know what happened at the cafeteria?”

She thought that Han Xu, who had returned first, had told Meng Heng. To her surprise, Meng Heng took out his cell phone and quickly swiped on the screen a few times before showing it to her.

They had caused quite a stir. Someone had recorded it and posted it online, causing a heated discussion among many netizens.

Shen Yin rubbed her aching temples. Now that everyone knew about it, that person would definitely find out too.

Sure enough, when Shen Yin got off work and walked to the junction, she saw Lian Jing leaning against the car, his head bowed as he smoked.

She subconsciously wanted to run, but a smiling Zhong Xin blocked her way. “Miss Shen, President Lian is waiting for you.”

That sentence again!

Shen Yin really wanted to dissect his brain to see if it was filled with submission to Lian Jing!

She resigned herself to her fate and walked to the car. She opened the car door and got in without even looking at Lian Jing.

It was not that she was deliberately ignoring Lian Jing, but he seemed to have no self-awareness at all. He was attracting a lot of attention just by standing there. If she quarreled with him by the roadside, it might be recorded and posted online again.

Seeing that Shen Yin had obediently gotten into the car, Lian Jing stubbed out his cigarette and sat next to her.

The chauffeur and Zhong Xin hid at a distance, afraid that President Lian would fly into a rage and they would be implicated. Nothing would happen to Miss Shen, but they would become punching bags.

Lian Jing glanced at the woman who was looking out of the window and asked calmly, “Why did you leave the hospital without telling me?”

Although Shen Yin was stubborn, she was still a little nervous. Knowing that he wanted the best for her, she softened her tone and explained to him calmly, “The nurse said that I could go home to recuperate.”

“You obey the nurses but not me?” Lian Jing looked at her unhappily.

Shen Yin explained patiently,”When it comes to illnesses, a nurse has more say than you. Besides, I’m a forensic pathologist, and I am an accurate judge of injuries.”

Lian Jing looked at her coldly. “Then can you judge how much strength I need to break your injured neck?”

Shen Yin rolled her eyes at him. Just as she was about to open the car door and get out, a hand holding a box appeared in front of her.

Her eyes traveled up the arm and met Lian Jing’s calm and composed eyes.

She pointed to the beautifully wrapped box and asked, “What’s this?”

Lian Jing impatiently flung the box into her lap and called Zhong Xin back. Seeing her stunned expression, he could not help but flick her forehead. “It’s a gift to celebrate being discharged from the hospital, stupid.”

Shen Yin’s eyes immediately grew wary. “What kind of tracker is it?”

Lian Jing almost stopped breathing. After holding his breath for a long time, he looked at Shen Yin’s suspicious eyes. He became even more frustrated and snatched the box back. “If you don’t want it, then forget it. I would rather throw it away than give it to you.”

Shen Yin leaned against the car door indifferently. Her eyes watched as the scenery rapidly went past. She gradually grew sleepy and her eyelids became heavy.

Lian Jing gripped the box tightly and looked straight ahead. From the corner of his eye, he kept staring at the woman who would be the death of him.

Not only did she not feel any reluctance to give up the gift, she did not seem to care about it at all. She was just leaning against the car window and nodding off. The noble and self-controlled President Lian was instantly furious.
