Pathologically imprisoned by an AI of his own creation

On the stairs, Shen An held on to the railing and watched everything happening in the living room calmly. He waited until Liu Fengyue left before slowly going downstairs.

Liu Zhuoze, who was so angry that he didn't seem to notice her at all, sat down on the sofa and sulked.

Passing by him silently, Shen An walked straight out.

Liu Zhuoze finally noticed her:

"An'an? Are you awake?"

Although she was extremely tired, her tone of spirit was still strong, which made her feel a little weak.

Stopping, she nodded.

"Well, Mr. Liu, I have an appointment with Ji Yunzhou today to discuss work. I'll leave first."

As soon as she turned around, he chased her and grabbed her wrist.

"An'an, don't go out. You haven't had breakfast yet. What do you really want to talk about? I'll just ask Ji Yunzhou to come over in a while."

Shen An pursed her lips and said nothing.

You see, Liu Zhuoze can still walk, he can quickly step forward to stop her, but he just doesn't dare to stop Liu Fengyue or step forward to ask him for an explanation.

Who can be provoked and who cannot be provoked, as shrewd as he is, he can figure it out at a glance.

Therefore, Liu Zhuoze has never been trustworthy.

He was so good at weighing the pros and cons, why did she, Shen An, think that her cousin, whom he had just found for a month, would let him go against someone like Liu Fengyue with just a few words?

Liu Zhuoze didn't dare to break up with Liu Fengyue. The protection he promised was just an empty shell, and the anger he felt for her being hurt was useless.

Pulling the corner of her mouth stiffly, she tried to pull her hand away, but the restraint did not move at all.

"You hurt me."

After speaking lightly, Liu Zhuoze seemed to have just realized what he was doing, and hurriedly relaxed a little, but still pulled her.

"Don't go out."

He still didn't want to let her go, so he built a fence around her.

However, what use is this kind of fence in the face of violent storms?

Nodding, Shen An said softly:

"it is good."

Sitting at the dining table, the two fell into an awkward silence. It seemed that they had always been like this during the period when Shen An was under house arrest in the name of taking care of him.

Apart from Ji Yunzhou's arrival, there was basically nothing to say.

They really don't know each other well and have nothing in common.

How could a young master who was raised in a wealthy family's compound have anything to talk about with an orphan girl who relied on others' kindness to survive and complete her studies.

In terms of status, she is just his cousin, not even close to him.

Taking care of her was probably just a show to show off to someone.

He lowered his head and stared at the table boredly. This time, Liu Zhuoze broke the silence again and asked with difficulty in a hoarse voice:

"An'an, he... didn't do anything to you..."

"No……"

Without even raising her head, she replied directly. Her voice, which had been tortured by Liu Fengyue, was hoarse because of last night, which made people feel distressed.

What happened? As smart as Liu Zhuoze, does he really not know?

Shen An didn't believe it.

Then why ask her? Haha, it's just self-deception. In order to cover up the uneasiness in their hearts, hypocritical people are like this.

The inexplicable irritability in her heart still made Shen An suppress it.

She was willing to obey Liu Zhuoze for the time being.

For no other reason than that, although he did not dare to openly challenge Liu Fengyue and support Shen An like he said, he could not even give Liu Fengyue power.

However, he can indeed help the Ji family, and he is justified in doing so. In addition to his superiors and subordinates, he and Ji Yunzhou are also considered good friends.

For the sake of Ji Yunzhou, and for the innocent people implicated by her, the Ji family, who was targeted by Liu Fengyue, can get the peace they deserve.

Shen An was willing to endure it until the last drop of value was squeezed out of her existence by Liu Zhuoze.

After a while, the steaming breakfast was served.

Aunt Zhang's cooking was delicious. Liu Zhuoze cared about her preferences and would always take the initiative to ask. After about a month, he had figured it out.

There was basically nothing Shen An disliked about the breakfast on the table, and she even liked most of it.

But when you eat it in your mouth, it has no taste.

Liu Zhuoze fiddled with his cell phone, and Shen An guessed that he was sending a message to Ji Yunzhou.

The two fell silent again.

Liu Zhuoze didn't seem to be planning to go to the company today. After eating, he sat opposite Shen An on the sofa in the living room.

Scratching his head, he awkwardly mentioned a few nonsense words about the nice weather, and she responded politely.

But the perfunctoriness in his tone was not hidden at all, and Liu Zhuoze was not angry at all. Originally, he was going to the company today, but he was inexplicably irritated for some reason, and he didn't want to go.

He took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Qiqing.

After a while, Qi Qing opened the door and came in, delivered a stack of information, and after listening to Liu Zhuoze's instructions, he turned around and left.

He was leaning on the sofa to work, while Shen An was looking at his mobile phone opposite him in a daze.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a knock on the door again, and Ji Yunzhou was invited in. Liu Zhuoze looked up when he heard the sound, and saw Shen An standing up suddenly, with a hint of displeasure flashing across his expression.

"Master."

While shouting, he looked at Ji Yunzhou carefully.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with his face and that there didn't seem to be any wounds on his body, Shen An felt relieved before he felt a little worried.

Ji Yunzhou quietly hid his injured right hand behind his back.

Not paying attention to Liu Zhuoze's expression, Shen An took a few steps towards Ji Yunzhou and sat down until his stiff body finally relaxed.

Staying around someone like Liu Zhuoze is like working with an older boss, it's too stressful.

It's not as good as Wang Papi. It's weird that I haven't run against him for so long.

Handing the things in his hands to Shen An, Ji Yunzhou also said hello to Liu Zhuoze.

"what is that?"

Before Shen An could ask any questions, he put down the laptop in his hand and looked up at the two of them.

"I passed by the supermarket and brought her some snacks."

With that said, Ji Yunzhou and Shen An sat down opposite Liu Zhuoze. The level of tacit understanding between the two made him feel very uncomfortable.

In particular, Shen An's usually expressionless face had a smile on his face, and he shouted softly:

"Thank you, senior brother."

He had given her so many things, but before she heard Shen An shout "Thank you, brother", the fists around her clenched tightly again.

In fact, I don't really want to hear it anymore... It's just that if Shen An can laugh easily in front of him... Even if it's just pretending, just call him 'brother'...

He is very easy to coax...

The anger that wanted to break out finally suppressed Liu Zhuoze's heart and turned into heavy sadness.

Forget it, what qualifications does he have?

Shen An never did anything wrong. It was because he failed to find her in time, because he failed to fulfill his aunt's entrustment during her lifetime, and because he failed to take good care of his sister.

Only now did she lose her smile because of a cheap gift from a man.

Even if this man is his close friend and a famous engineer, Liu Zhuoze will still feel unhappy.

Ji Yunzhou is not worthy of her.
