Then, he helped Xia Ling open the car door and escorted her inside.
Watching this tall and slender figure, even if the onlookers could not see it clearly, they wondered: was Shi Yan being kept by an old man?
The rumors were instantly dispelled.
Such a handsome man! And so gentle!
Kept? Are you kidding? Please come and keep her. They would never refuse!
If that wasn't kept, then what was?
Xia Ling got into the car.
On this side, Zhou Jing's phone had a small campus WeChat group, but the messages were about to explode. Everyone was asking, was Shi Yan being kept? Did Shi Yan have a brother who drove a Bentley? Did Shi Yan have a mine at home?
Zhou Jing: "..."
Looking at these people's malicious speculation.
Zhou Jing couldn't bear it anymore: [ Shi Yan does have a mine at home, but it's not hers, it's her husband's! ]
[ the one you saw is her husband, okay? ! stop fooling around here, you're just throwing dirty water on people! ]
Miss BRAINIAC: [ ... and you said you're not a scumbag. You have a husband and you're still hanging on to our senior Gu Xu for two years? Ambiguous. ]
Zhou Jing: [ what do you guys know! That senior Gu Xu is not good at all. He actually had a crush on senior Wen Shanshan, but because senior Wen was scheming against Shi Yan's husband, he deliberately went after Shi Yan, causing her husband to misunderstand. ]
Go You: [ make up, almost make up. Senior Wen's family is in real estate. She's the daughter of a rich family, why would she take a fancy to Shi Yan's husband? With your family background back then, how good of a husband could you marry? Is it worth it for senior Wen to rob her like this? ]
After a moment of silence, Zhou Jing searched for Ji Yi on Baidu on her phone.
On Baidu, the headline was Ji Yi in a suit, speaking at the university's anniversary celebration.
Ji Yi's handsome, cold, and imposing appearance, Zhou Jing took a few glances and was satisfied.
Then she ran to the WeChat group to reply.
[ driving a Bentley, isn't that outstanding? You've all seen this person before, but none of you would have thought it was him. ]
Pretending to be mysterious, she kept them in suspense.
Zhou Jing opened the message in satisfaction.
Anyway, this WeChat group was full of nicknames, no one knew who was talking.
She had eaten so many melons in the dormitory today, and now that she shared it, she instantly felt refreshed.
The WeChat group was blown up by her one sentence. Everyone started guessing about how outstanding Shi Yan's husband was. The Bentley was driving casually, and they even knew who this person was.
They kept guessing until the wee hours of the morning. They tried their best to eavesdrop on Zhou Jing, wanting her to finish her sentence.
But as the instigator, Zhou Jing had long fallen asleep. She did not see the shouts of the people who had fallen into the pit and were eating melons.

While sitting in the car.
Ji Yi played a CD.
It was a piece of jazz from a certain era.
The melody came out. It had a nostalgic feel to it.
Outside the window were the neon lights of the city. Xia Ling was sitting in the passenger seat.
She kept looking out the window.
Ji Yi, who was driving, had his attention on her.
"Shi Yan, are you avoiding me?" Ji Yi asked first.
His voice sounded over the music in the car.
Xia Ling turned around and looked at him.
"No."
As she spoke, she naturally averted her gaze and looked out the window again.
From Ji Yi's point of view, she had not been looking at him the whole time. Instead, it seemed like she was trying to cover something up.
He had initially been guessing, but now he was certain.
He naturally changed the topic. "I remember that you mentioned before that you and that Gu Xu seemed to have done some design together."
