Chapter 369
Zhou Zhilei’s entire body was shaking. She had known Lu Shaoming for more than 20 years. It was until now that she truly realized how scary and cruel he really was.
At that time, she was really crazy with jealousy, and it was only right then that she decided to make use of that crazy Tang Xueli to provoke him.
Now, she regretted doing so.
How could she trade her entire life merely for one man?
Lu Shaoming looked at her for the last time. “You are like this right now. This is the greatest benevolence I can give you. In the future, don’t create any more shockwaves. Otherwise, I would let you know, your situation could get much worse.”
Lu Shaoming had one of his hands in his pocket. He used another hand to hold his car keys, and he left without a care.
…
Zhou Dayuan ran in front of Jian Han’s office. The door was locked, and he was unable to open it. He could only knock on the door. “Jian Han, Jian Han, open the door.”
“Not yet,” the man answered simply.
Jian Han had more tears flow down her almond shaped face. She took a breath through her reddened nose. She turned around slowly and used her chopsticks to pick a clump of rice to feed him. “You have some.”
Zhou Dayuan did not move, and he looked down at her from above.
The expression in his eyes was not sharp. He was so quiet, and he had some faint traces of…pain…in his eyes as he looked at her.
He would kiss her forehead and call her name again and again.
Jian Han cast her eyes downwards. Her small face was pale as her lips were a little pink. He did not eat, and she slowly withdrew her hand.
At this moment, the man bent down and opened his mouth. He ate the rice from her chopsticks in her hands.
He did not leave. Jian Han also did not move, the man’s long and lanky figure left her with a shadow. He chewed the rice and swallowed it down before looking at her. “Jian Han, can you not treat me like this in the future? I feel very insecure when you are sometimes hot and cold towards me.”
Jian Han could not control her tears. Her small hands firmly held her chopsticks, and her lips were quivering.
Zhou Dayuan went forward and kissed her quivering lips gently. He plastered against her and brushed her lightly. “I am sorry, I also do not want to give you stress. You are angry at me and have asked me to leave. I also want to be like others, leaving to give you some space for freedom, but I am really afraid. Jian Han, do you know why I am really afraid right now?
“I am afraid once I turn around, you would disappear again. It would be another endless six years. Last night, I had that little feeling of bliss. You slept beside me, in a spot where my hands could reach so easily. You gave me a warm nest, and I don’t want to lose it yet again.
“Jian Han, I am 32 years old. I really don’t have another six years to wait for you anymore. I am really afraid that we would not have the time to be in love with one another, and we would get old by then. I am afraid that as time passes, I won’t even know where the time disappeared to.
“Jian Han, I can give up on the entire world for you. I only want you. Is that okay? Me being like this, do you want to have it? Do you dare to want me or not?”
Jian Han had nothing to say in response because she could not formulate any answer. Her heart was secured by multiple locks. She could not save herself, and she could not help him.
She shed tears as she shook her head. “I am sorry…I am sorry…”
Zhou Dayuan’s eyes were filled with apparent disappointment. He closed his eyes and kissed her lips once again. “Its fine, I won’t force you. If you like it, then we can also maintain this status as we grow old together. Only that, don’t ever ask me to leave again. If you really do not want to see me I can stand at the side of the door to wait for you. I can wait for you forever.”
“Dayuan….” Tears trickled down Jian Han’s face non stop. She could not understand why there could be so many couples on earth who could have their own happy endings, just like Ning Qing, but they could not.
“Put your chopsticks down. Don’t eat anymore. The dishes have gone cold. I will go take a shower, and I will bring you out for a meal later,” Zhou Dayuan said, then he stood up and turned around as he headed towards the door.
“Dayuan.” Jian Han put her chopsticks and the bowl of rice down. She tugged the sleeve of his shirt and stood up from the chair. She went on her tiptoes to embrace his neck. “Dayuan.”
She called him.
Zhou Dayuan dodged her. His eyes were full of pamper as he said, “My shirt is dirty; don’t hug me.”
“I don’t care. I want to hug you.” Jian Han hugged him tight and said, “What did you say was in that bowl of soup?”
He had yet to finish his words.
“Oh, I ordered that bowl of soup for you. It was especially targeted to supplement a woman’s health after vigorous exercise.”
Jian Han’s small, pale face had two red spots on it. She laughed lightly and lifted her head to kiss his lips, and she kissed him deeply.
Zhou Dayuan do you know or not? I love you so much.
…
At night, Lu Shaoming drove back to the Ning family villa. After he entered the villa, he realized that Ning Qing had yet to return.
He lifted his hand up to glance at his watch. It was already 7pm.
Yue Wanqing carried Little Qinwen in her arms as she walked over. “Shaoming, Qingqing might be late tonight. She could not make it home for dinner. Let’s eat.”
