Chapter 126: Nana Zi

Jiang Chen thought the other party regretted returning the six thousand yuan to him and seized the chance to rip him off. He didn’t expect to be dragged to such a distant place.

But once they got into the taxi, it was too late to back out.

The meter read eighty-six yuan, he handed over a hundred-yuan note, and Xu Siyi just told the driver to keep the change.

Binhai Park, adjacent to the East Sea, is a landmark in the city and a favorite among both locals and tourists.

Although it was already autumn, the place was still bustling with people coming and going.

"It’s so lively!"

Xu Siyi was excited, looking around without a hint of hunger.

"Let’s go!"

"Wait a second, the beach is just ahead. Aren’t we going to eat something?"

"You’ve never been here before?"

Xu Siyi looked at him in surprise.

Jiang Chen shook his head.

Though everyone from East Sea knew about Binhai Park, he really hadn’t been there before.

"Right ahead is the beach barbecue, and there’s even a bar next door!"

Xu Siyi, annoyed by his dawdling, grabbed his arm again, "Just follow me!"

Xu Siyi wasn’t lying. There were a few barbecue stands by the beach, where one could enjoy the romance of eating barbecue, drinking, and feeling the sea breeze all at once.

Of course.

With such perfect timing and location, the prices were also much higher than usual. But with six thousand yuan between two people, they had more than enough.

Xu Siyi didn’t really intend to fleece him either. She casually ordered some food and added a few bottles of beer.

Not far away, waves were rolling, the din of people sounded, and the beach was filled with frolicking children and adults. The setting sun was slowly sinking into the horizon, casting a golden glow over the water.

"It’s so beautiful."

Sitting in a beach chair, Xu Siyi’s eyes brimmed with ecstasy.

Despite feeling somewhat coerced, Jiang Chen too found the place nice.

"Did you come here before with Shu Rui?"

He asked casually.

"Shu Rui, Shu Rui, can you not have her in your head all the time?"

Xu Siyi said subconsciously, sounding slightly irritable.

Jiang Chen was taken aback.

Xu Siyi’s gaze moved from the sea to him, her lips, moist and rosy from the lip gloss she wore, parted slightly, "...What I mean is, Shu Rui’s father just passed away, she’s still at home dealing with the aftermath. You shouldn’t disturb her during this time."

Jiang Chen certainly understood the reasoning, but why was it that he couldn’t even mention her name?

"Let’s have a drink."

Xu Siyi raised her disposable plastic cup.

The sun steadily set beneath the horizon.

Stars began to twinkle.

The liveliness of the beach showed no signs of dwindling.

"Jiang Chen, can I ask you a question?"

Xu Siyi’s wine-red hair fluttered in the sea breeze, looking alluring and sexy with the natural hairstyle created by nature.

"No."

Jiang Chen was single-mindedly skewering meat, not even lifting his head.

Xu Siyi felt a tightening in her chest. She inhaled, smoothed her hair, and with a woman’s illogical gift, ignored his wishes and continued, "Was Ai Qian really your first love?"

Jiang Chen paused, falling silent for a while, and finally deigned to put down the skewer in his hand to look up.

"Do you really want to hear it?"

Xu Siyi nodded without hesitation, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"Actually, she wasn’t."

Xu Siyi didn’t seem surprised. A trace of ’I knew it’ flickered in her eyes.

"Did you actually have a lot of girlfriends?"

"Not really, no."

"So when was your first love?"

Jiang Chen pondered seriously for a while.

"Big class? Or kindergarten?"

He shook his head, "I can’t remember very clearly."

Xu Siyi was stunned, where didn’t she know that the other person was teasing her, but she wasn’t angry; instead, she laughed coquettishly, "Do you think you’re Shin Chan?"

Jiang Chen grinned.

"I can’t compare to Shin Chan. If I had half of his talent for chasing girls, that would be great."

Xu Siyi suddenly leaned closer, propping her chin with her hand, and blinked her eyes.

"If you were Shin Chan, then who would be your Nene-chan?"

As everyone knows, in the animation, Shin Chan likes a lot of girls, or rather women, and he would flirt with almost any beauty he meets, but Nene-chan is the only one he truly wishes to tenderly protect from his heart.

Jiang Chen didn’t pick up the thread.

Xu Siyi didn’t continue on the topic either. She retracted her body, no longer forming such a forceful oppressive aura.

"You’re not bad yourself. Shu Rui openly told us she liked you."

"Really?"

"Why would I lie to you?"

Xu Siyi laughed, "If you don’t believe me, ask Jin Jin and Guo Ran. It was the first time we heard her say she liked someone. Jiang Chen, your charm is quite significant."

"It’s alright."

Jiang Chen revealed a slightly shy expression.

Xu Siyi looked at him, "But don’t be too pleased with yourself. Shu Rui is quite in demand. There are lots of guys chasing her. One time, a bona fide rich second generation, whose family owns a hotel, almost got together with Shu Rui. It fell through only because he didn’t allow Shu Rui to live stream, so they didn’t end up together in the end."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

Xu Siyi seemed utterly without guile, "There’s a lot more, want to hear it?"

Jiang Chen picked up his glass and took a sip of beer, feeling cool to the core.

"Aren’t you afraid Shu Rui will find out, and say you’re betraying her privacy?"

Xu Siyi was taken aback, as if only then did she realize what she had said, she quickly uttered, "I didn’t say anything just now."

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, looking at the crowd on the beach.

Reality is neither a fairy tale movie nor a novel; there aren’t that many pure and unblemished people. In life, who doesn’t have a past?

Not to mention a girl like Li Shuru.

No matter whether what Xu Siyi said was true or false, whether it was factual or exaggerated, he didn’t mind, and it seemed like he had no reason to mind.

"Have you eaten your fill?"

Xu Siyi stopped spilling her good sister’s past "romantic history."

"Yes, let’s head back."

It was getting dark, and it was a long distance from here; if they didn’t go back soon, it would become too late.

"Go back for what?"

Xu Siyi spoke discontentedly, "We drove all this way, you couldn’t have come all this way just to have a barbeque? If you want to go back, you go back. I’m not going."

Jiang Chen was speechless.

"If something happens to you here alone, what will you do?"

"Again, it’s none of your business."

Xu Siyi stood up and walked toward the sea.

"Boss, the bill, please."

Jiang Chen spoke hurriedly.

Although domestic safety is indeed very good, it isn’t devoid of bad elements.

Better safe than sorry.

Moreover, considering how beautiful Xu Siyi looked, if some misfortune were to happen, even though it wouldn’t be his responsibility, he definitely wouldn’t feel at ease in his conscience.

"Sir, that will be one thousand six hundred."

Two people having a barbecue for one thousand six hundred; in the past, Jiang Chen definitely would have found it difficult to accept, but now he didn’t have such a strong emotional reaction.

After all, he’d just bought a villa worth nearly two hundred million, and his forty-something thousand Yuan wristwatch got stepped on and broken in the afternoon.

After quickly paying the bill, he turned around, searched for a while, and finally spotted Xu Siyi’s figure. He immediately got up and followed her.

In fact, Xu Siyi, who had been secretly watching behind him, turned up the corners of her mouth, revealing a sly and enchanting smile.
