Chapter 70
The office seemed unusually quiet, and Shu Wan could clearly hear the frequency of her own breathing, which was chaotic and short.
She put her hands behind her back, holding the corner of the work table, and gently scratched it with her fingernails.
She looked at the third button of his shirt and replied slowly: "Zhou Ye ran away from home because of this incident... I think you should first convince Zhou Ye to accept your remarriage, and then we can talk about it.
this."
Zhou Lian heard the words deeply and said "oh" in a long tone.
There was a hint of yin and yang in Shu Wan's ears.
Before she had time to think about it, he had already asked: "Is this what you think?"
Shu Wan nodded: "Yeah."
After finishing his words, Zhou Lianshen raised his foot and kicked away the chair that stood between the two of them.
Without its obstruction, the distance between them was even closer.
His sharp breath, mixed with the faint scent of cedar and sawdust, always made Shu Wan's reaction slow.
"I haven't found his person, how can I convince him?" Zhou Lianshen looked at her, paused, and asked, "Do you know where he is?"
Shu Wan's eyes averted for a moment and she immediately replied: "...How could I know."
Shu Wan's reaction fell into Zhou Lianshen's eyes. He found it very interesting, as if he was playing a cat and mouse game with her. Shu Wan didn't even dare to look at him. Maybe only by handing her a mirror could she know what she was doing at the moment.
His expression looked so guilty.
Zhou Lianshen rarely had such interest and did not expose her.
He was silent for a long time and said warmly: "Xiaoye actually longs for maternal love. He relies on others easily. It used to be Zhu Jingyan, but this time we quarreled and we didn't contact him. He may have put Zhu Jingyan in my camp in his heart.
"
He looked at Shu Wan and spoke slower and slower: "Getting along with Xiaoye is actually not that difficult."
Shu Wan's eyelids twitched, maybe because of a guilty conscience, but she always felt that every word Zhou Lianshen said at this moment had a special meaning...
She didn't dare to move and asked him: "Why are you telling me this?"
Zhou Lianshen smiled faintly: "It's nothing."
While talking, he saw that her hair was a little messy, and he raised his hand to help her straighten it out.
Shu Wan instinctively blocked it, and his eyes darkened.
Then, he held her hand, pushed it away, and helped her straighten her hair somewhat forcefully.
Zhou Lianshen noticed that Shu Wan's earlobes were red. She had fair skin, so such a change would be particularly obvious. Suddenly he thought that when she was shy and nervous, not only her earlobes would turn red...
The beautiful scenes in my mind are a bit disturbing.
Zhou Lianshen's Adam's apple rolled, but he finally suppressed the impulse that surged into his heart at this moment.
He looked away, stepped back, patted her coat on the back of the chair, and said, "Get dressed, I'll take you home."
Shu Wan was stunned for a moment and refused: "Boss, I have a car."
Zhou Lian looked at her deeply and said with an imperceptible hoarseness in his voice: "I want to give it to you."
"..."
Zhou Lianshen persisted, so Shu Wan had no choice but to take his car back home.
Now that he has come to Xiangtan Community, he is already familiar with the roads.
The car stopped in the community, Shu Wan unbuckled her seat belt and turned her head to look at him.
The interior lights of the car were not turned on, and it was already dark outside. His facial features were hidden in the darkness, with clear outlines but a vague expression.
Shu Wan didn't dare to stay or be alone with him in such an environment. She spoke first: "Thank you, boss. I'm going upstairs."
"Um."
Zhou Lianshen responded to her calmly, without the slightest intention of entangled, as if he really just wanted to send her home.
Shu Wan immediately got out of the car, and the Cayenne's headlights once again illuminated the road for her.
In the quiet night, Shu Wan could hear her own heartbeat very clearly.
In the car just now, Shu Wan didn't dare to look at her phone. Now she returned home and saw Zhou Ye giving her more than a dozen WeChat messages.
Shu Wan quickly replied.
Knowing that he had not eaten until now, Shu Wan couldn't help but feel guilty and promised him to go there right away.
Shu Jing and Xu Hui were both not at home, so they probably went out to play cards. Shu Wan made Coca-Cola chicken wings as quickly as possible. She was worried that Zhou Ye wouldn't be full, but there happened to be leftover rice in the pot, so she fried some rice.
Put it in the box and quickly went downstairs.
…
Zhou Ye waited for her all night, nagging and complaining about her for a long time, and Shu Wan coaxed him for almost an hour.
When she came out of the hotel, she looked at the time and it was already past ten o'clock.
She let out a tired breath and planned to ask Didi to go home.
Before I even took out my phone, someone not far away suddenly pressed the car horn twice.
Shu Wan followed the sound and went out——
In the parking space a few steps away, the black Cayenne had been waiting for who knows how long.
The driver's door was open, and he leaned there, lighting his second cigarette of the night.
He had a suit draped on his arm, his tie had been taken off at some point, and two buttons at the collar of his shirt were undone.
When the night wind blew by, you could see his collar swaying in the wind.
He was standing under the streetlight, with clear and serious features.
The moment her eyes met his, Shu Wan's mind suddenly buzzed!
Zhou Lian took a deep breath of smoke, which was blown away by the wind.
The hand holding the cigarette made a gesture to her.
Shu Wan stood there and hesitated for a few minutes before walking over.
She stood one step away from the man, lowering her head and not daring to look at him, let alone ask him why he was here. She could only shout weakly: "Boss..."
She didn't dare to ask, but Zhou Lenshen did.
He shook off the ash from his cigarette and said, "It's so late, why did you come to the hotel again?"
Shu Wan had no choice but to say harshly: "There is a friend living here, that, I..."
Before he finished speaking, his wrist suddenly tightened.
Zhou Lianshen could easily pull her into his arms with a little effort.
He lifted her chin with his fingers, and from the cigarette between his fingers, white mist slowly rose.
Shu Wan blinked and heard him say with a smile: "Shu Wan, you are quite competent as a stepmother."
"..."
"If I don't come with you tonight, how long are you going to keep it secret from me?"
Shu Wan pursed her lips, feeling embarrassed and ashamed after having her lie exposed.
She was dumbfounded for a long time before asking: "...when did you know about it?"
Zhou Lianshen raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He dropped the cigarette in his hand on the ground and squinted his eyes as if thinking about something.
After about a minute or two, he slowly said: "Dad, I'm quite safe now. Nothing's wrong, but I don't want to go home just yet..."
Shu Wan felt her scalp numb as she listened.
He asked: "Did you send this?"
Shu Wan frowned in annoyance and quickly explained: "I was afraid that you were worried about him and anxious, so I asked him to send you a WeChat message to report that he was safe. He didn't want to, so I... I sent it for him."
The further you go, the quieter your voice becomes.
Zhou Lianshen did not show any displeasure. He just repeated her words slowly: "You are afraid that I will be anxious..." Then, in a slightly calm voice, he asked her: "Why?"
