Obsessive Love, The Possessive Real Young Lady - Chapter 43
Shen Jiayan knew that Su Sui always handled matters with great efficiency.
But she never expected it to be this fast.
Just as she was hesitating about what kind of excuse to use to refuse the overseas trip plan,
Su Sui managed to bring the passports and plane tickets for the three of them to the airport in just one day.
Shen Jiayan looked at the security checkpoint so close at hand and was momentarily bewildered.
“Um…” Shen Jiayan’s gaze fell on Su Sui’s profile, “Maybe we should just skip it, after all, Gao Wei’s physical condition isn’t very suitable…”
“Finally got the words out?” Su Sui turned to look at her, “It must have been tough holding that in for two days.”
“Why not go? I’m feeling great now!” Gao Wei immediately jumped up to rebut, then even grabbed Shen Jiayan’s arm and shook it, “Sis, we’re already at the airport, come on~”
Shen Jiayan glanced at her but remained silent.
Seeing this, Su Sui leaned in and whispered to Shen Jiayan, “This trip’s expenses were earned from my investment management. It has nothing to do with Shen Wenshan. Relax.”
Shen Jiayan:…….
She was seen through again.
“Sis! Let’s go” Gao Wei tugged at her sleeve and pulled her toward the security checkpoint.
The three boarded the plane and settled into first class.
After taking her seat, Shen Jiayan realized that Su Sui had thoughtfully arranged for her and Gao Wei to sit together.
This was completely beyond her expectations. For Su Sui to go this far was already a display of great restraint for someone of her nature.
Waves of warmth surged in Shen Jiayan’s heart.
This feeling of warmth made the corners of her lips curve upwards involuntarily.
She looked to her left, just across the aisle, where Su Sui was engrossed in a book.
She unintentionally called out, “Su Sui…”
“Hm,” Su Sui replied, looking up at her, “What is it?”
Su Sui’s deep, fox like eyes sparkled with tiny stars. That kind of gaze always made Shen Jiayan feel as if she could see right through everything.
But in reality, she couldn’t hide anything from her…
Shen Jiayan guiltily lowered her head and changed the subject, “N-nothing.” It’s just that it’s been too long since we had such a peaceful moment together, so it just slipped out.
Su Sui didn’t press the issue, withdrew her gaze, and returned to reading her book.
The air in first class was very quiet, with only the soft rustling sound of turning pages.
Gao Wei, sitting next to Shen Jiayan, looked at Su Sui, then at Shen Jiayan. She reached out and poked Shen Jiayan’s shoulder, “Sis, let’s switch seats, you and me.”
“Why?” Shen Jiayan asked, puzzled, “Haven’t you never been on a plane before? Didn’t you say before that if you ever had the chance to fly, you had to sit by the window to watch the scenery?”
“Oh, that’s because there’s someone better looking than the scenery,” Gao Wei said, her eyes drifting towards Su Sui as she spoke.
Shen Jiayan followed Gao Wei’s gaze and immediately understood. She quickly covered Gao Wei’s eyes and pressed her back into her seat, “Sit properly.”
“What are you doing, Sis” Gao Wei whined, “I just want to be closer to Su su Jie.”
Shen Jiayan:…….
Good grief, she’s not even calling her Su Sui anymore, she’s calling her Su su Jie!
Shen Jiayan glared at Gao Wei, “Say one more nonsensical thing, and I’ll throw you off the plane.”
“No, no, don’t,” Gao Wei quickly begged for mercy.
Shen Jiayan ignored her, but Su Sui, who was reading, secretly raised the corner of her lip.
Soon, the plane took off.
As the plane climbed higher, Gao Wei seemed particularly excited. Her eyes were constantly fixed on the beautiful scenery outside the window, chattering nonstop to Shen Jiayan.
However, Shen Jiayan’s attention was entirely focused on Su Sui, secretly observing her movements to see if she was jealous or angry.
Watching like that, she unexpectedly fell asleep.
The moment her head tilted sideways, two people two hands simultaneously appeared, steadily supporting her forehead.
Shen Jiayan groggily opened her eyes and saw Su Sui holding her forehead with one hand while gripping Gao Wei’s wrist with the other.
She blinked, then blinked again. What is this situation?
Seeing that she was awake, Su Sui immediately let go and sat back down.
While Shen Jiayan’s thoughts were still a bit fuzzy, she heard Gao Wei whisper excitedly next to her, “Su-su Jie, you held my hand just now.”
This made Shen Jiayan’s mouth twitch, “Can’t you be a bit more composed? Always talking nonsense.”
“Why should I be composed?” Gao Wei retorted, “I don’t even know how long I have left to live! What’s the use of being composed?”
“So, do you really like her?” Shen Jiayan asked.
Perhaps Shen Jiayan herself hadn’t noticed the hint of nervousness hidden in her eyes when she asked this question. But this nervousness deeply pierced Gao Wei’s heart.
Her fingers tightened slightly, her hands resting on her lap clenching together. After a moment, Gao Wei closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her pupils were still black, free of any impurities. Her voice also returned to its usual cheerfulness and liveliness, “It’s not exactly like, it’s more like admiration.”
But there was a trace of bitterness in her smile.
“Sis…” she murmured, “I truly envy you.”
“I envy that you can fall in love without restraint.”
“I envy that you can choose the life you want without worry.”
“I envy that you possess a beautiful future.”
Then, her tone shifted, “So, I hope you can be like me. Even if the final outcome isn’t what you hoped for, at least you experienced it.”
Shen Jiayan lowered her eyelids, her lashes trembling slightly, concealing the dimness in her eyes.
“I understand what you mean.” She looked up and forced a faint smile towards Gao Wei, “You and I will switch seats.”
Gao Wei stared at Shen Jiayan’s look of sudden release and was stunned. What does she understand?! If she understands, shouldn’t she be letting me switch seats with Su Sui?! Why is she switching with me?!
Thinking this, a sense of foreboding arose in Gao Wei’s heart. Could this be… letting go painfully to fulfill her and Su Sui’s relationship??
After some back and forth, Gao Wei finally ended up in Shen Jiayan’s seat under the scrutinizing gaze of Su Sui.
“Hi,” she could only greet Su Sui awkwardly.
But the other person immediately pulled up the partition, so quickly that it could be described as merciless.
Three hours later, the plane landed smoothly at the X Country airport.
From the moment they deplaned, Su Sui clearly noticed Shen Jiayan avoiding her, even intentionally or unintentionally pushing her towards Gao Wei.
For example, now, Shen Jiayan was walking ahead alone, pushing a luggage cart. When Su Sui intended to help, she was shut down by a single sentence: “No need, just take good care of Gao Wei for me.”
“What exactly did you say to her?” Su Sui glanced at Gao Wei beside her.
“I didn’t say anything,” Gao Wei replied.
“If you said nothing, would Jiayan act like this?” Su Sui pressed.
Gao Wei pouted and, with a wronged expression, explained the entire incident to Su Sui.
“And then all I said was, ‘Even if the final outcome isn’t ideal, at least you experienced it.’ ” But as she spoke, she grew more flustered, “She… she just reacted like that.”
Su Sui: …
Truly useless, only messes things up. I previously thought Gao Wei was a formidable opponent with clever schemes, but now… She’s so foolish she’s practically bubbling with it!!
Su Sui silently despised Gao Wei for a moment.
At this time, Shen Jiayan was already pushing the luggage cart and was almost out of the airport exit. Seeing that the two hadn’t caught up, she turned and waved at them, “What are you doing? Hurry up!”
Su Sui and Gao Wei had no choice but to quicken their pace to catch up.
The three hailed a taxi by the roadside. Su Sui intended to sit in the front passenger seat.
However, the moment her hand touched the car door, two hands immediately slapped down onto the back of her hand.
“Don’t sit in the front passenger seat. You and Gao Wei can sit in the back,” Shen Jiayan said.
“I don’t want to sit in the back, I want to sit in the front and look at the scenery,” Gao Wei countered.
Su Sui: … She took a deep breath and said slowly, “Do either of you speak the local language? Can you communicate with the driver without any barrier?”
Shen Jiayan and Gao Wei simultaneously shook their heads.
Su Sui smiled, but the smile vanished instantly like a fleeting blossom, “Then stop fighting over it and sit in the back!”
The two reluctantly retreated to their seats.
The car started moving.
Shen Jiayan turned her head, looked out the window, and fell into a silence.
Gao Wei also kept her head down without a word.
Su Sui, watching them both through the rearview mirror, suddenly felt a pang of regret. Perhaps she shouldn’t have brought Shen Jiayan abroad, and definitely not that fool Gao Wei.
Thinking this, Su Sui’s gaze swept subtly toward Shen Jiayan.
Shen Jiayan was looking out the side window, her expression indifferent as she pondered how to use this trip as an opportunity to let Gao Wei experience the taste of being in love.
Suddenly, Shen Jiayan felt a gaze upon her. She turned back and found Su Sui staring at her. The look was extraordinarily deep and tender, causing her heart to pound rapidly.
Shen Jiayan quickly lowered her gaze. Should I really just hand Su Sui over? I’m unwilling. But she also knew that given the current situation between her and Su Sui, doing this was the best decision for both of them. After all, their status was the biggest obstacle to their relationship. Furthermore, Gao Wei needed Su Sui more than she did, and Su Sui would only get better with the companionship of someone with Gao Wei’s disposition.
While Shen Jiayan’s thoughts were in turmoil, the taxi stopped outside a 5-star resort hotel.
Gao Wei excitedly got out of the car and rushed into the hotel impatiently.
Shen Jiayan and Su Sui followed shortly after.
Su Sui walked ahead, with Shen Jiayan following about half a meter behind her. The two walked one after the other, each preoccupied with their own thoughts.
As they walked, Su Sui suddenly stopped dead in her tracks.
Shen Jiayan almost bumped into her and quickly braked. She frowned, “Why did you stop all of a sudden?”
Su Sui turned back, gazing at her with a half smile, “Come to my room tonight. If you dare not come, then I will…” But she trailed off mid-sentence and walked away briskly.
Shen Jiayan was left standing there stunned, watching her retreating back. She stood there blankly, as if petrified. What about it? Why didn’t she finish the sentence! This made Shen Jiayan so angry she felt like spitting blood!
Later that evening, Shen Jiayan had planned to just shower and go straight to bed, but Su Sui’s half-hearted threat kept echoing in her mind. If I don’t go to her room, then what?
Shen Jiayan struggled, tossing and turning in bed. Finally, she got up in annoyance. Forget it, you can’t guess what a crazy person is thinking. I’d better go and see. The thought of Su Sui getting truly annoyed and abandoning her and Gao Wei in this unfamiliar place was terrifying.
She casually threw on a jacket and left her room. After five steps, she knocked on the door of room 2013 opposite hers.
