Marriage First, True Love Later-Chapter 238
238 A true confession
Lin Li didn’t even have to turn around to know that the person behind her was Zhou han. She didn’t know when it happened, but Zhou han and su Yicheng’s relationship seemed to have returned to the past.
Lin Li regained her balance and retreated from his arms. She said to him in a low voice, ” thank you. From that day on, there was an inexplicable sense of distance and politeness between the two.
Zhou han stared at her without saying a word. After a while, he turned around and left.
Lin Li stared at his back for a while, then retracted her gaze and headed directly in the direction of the bathroom.
Zhou han returned to his seat at the side. Ye Ziwen looked at him and smiled ambiguously.
He glanced at him and said, ” “What are you doing? are you horny?” She tried to use words to cover up the awkwardness and unnaturalness on her face.
Ye Ziwen ignored his words and nudged him with his shoulder. He asked,”Why? are you interested in her?”
Zhou han looked at him and felt that the smile on his face was so bright that it was asking for a beating.
Seeing that he didn’t answer, ye Ziwen seemed to be sure that he was interested in Lin Li. He smiled slyly and stretched out his hand in front of him, saying,”Treat me to a meal and I’ll tell you everything about her.” He didn’t miss the fact that Zhou Han’s eyes had never left Lin Li since she entered the venue. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have immediately stepped forward to help her steady herself when he saw that she was about to fall.
you know her? ” Zhou han raised his eyebrows and asked, ” you know her? ” His tone was a little low.
Ye Ziwen did not notice the change in his tone and only continued, although she cut her hair and seemed to have lost some weight, I can’t be wrong about her face. You know, I can’t forget beautiful women. As he said that, ye Ziwen laughed a little roguishly. but you don’t have to say. She looks better with long hair.
Zhou Han’s eyes darkened and he didn’t say anything.
When ye Ziwen saw this, he smiled and nudged him with his shoulder again. He said,”How is it? it’s just a meal.” This kid had drunk so much at the bar that he had even blamed him for the bill and the compensation. Although he knew that this must have been su Yicheng’s idea, he didn’t dare to have any ideas about su Yicheng. Not to mention that he was a two-faced Wolf, he didn’t dare to say anything just because su Yicheng was his future brother-in-law! However, there was no reason to let him suffer alone. At least he had to drag the next one to accompany him.
Zhou han came back to his senses and looked at him. He said indifferently, ” “There’s no need to trouble yourself,” He beckoned for the waiter to bring him a glass of red wine and gulped it down in one go.
Ye Ziwen was stunned and asked in a strange manner,”Didn’t you take a fancy to her?” If he didn’t like him, why was he staring at her? actually, he didn’t really want to ask him out for a meal or something. As a friend, he also wanted him to pull himself together and not live in the shadow Ling LAN had cast on him in the past.
“Yes, I’ve taken a fancy to her.” Zhou han nodded and took a glass of champagne from the tray of a waiter who passed by in front of him. He raised his hand and took another sip. His heart felt a little stuffy and uncomfortable. He didn’t know where that inexplicable anger came from, but it burned him and made him a little irritable.
“Then you don’t want it!” If you like him, you have to be more positive. Why is this kid still as wooden as before? “At most, I don’t need you to treat me. You’re so petty. Let me tell you, her name is Lin Li, and she’s Yingluo.”
Zhou han reached out to interrupt ye Ziwen and said,”She’s my wife.” Perhaps he didn’t even realize it himself, but his tone was unusually certain when he said this.
Ye Ziwen was stunned and his eyes widened as he looked at him in disbelief. When he finally reacted, Zhou han, who was standing in front of him, had already disappeared.
Lin Li stayed in the bathroom for a while, touched up her makeup, and then came out with her handbag. However, as soon as she came out, she almost bumped into someone. The strong smell of alcohol made Lin Li feel a little uncomfortable. When she raised her hand to cover her nose and was about to avoid it, she suddenly froze. She stared at the man in front of her, who was staggering as he walked, and exclaimed, ” “Zhou han!”
Zhou han stopped and looked at her for a long time before he could see her clearly. He said, ” “Oh, it’s you.”
“Why did you drink so much?” Lin Li frowned and looked at him with some disapproval.
Zhou Han’s mouth twitched and he only said, ” “Heh, it’s none of your business.” As he said that, he turned around and wanted to head to the men’s room in front. However, he seemed to have really drunk a little too much. His footsteps were obviously a little unsteady, as if he was stepping on clouds. His entire body swayed slowly, as if he would fall down with the next step.
Lin Li subconsciously stepped forward and supported his entire body, making him lean his center of gravity on her body. She said, ” “Why did you drink so much wine?” Her tone was filled with obvious concern.
Zhou han leaned against her and pressed his entire body weight against her. On top of Lin Li’s head, which she couldn’t see, the corners of his mouth curved up slightly, but he didn’t say anything.
Lin Li strenuously helped him to the men’s room’s door before letting him go. Her face was a little unnaturally red as she said, ” “You, you can go in by yourself.”
Zhou han still didn’t say anything. He turned around, pushed open the door of the bathroom, and went in directly. However, Lin Li’s back was facing him, so she didn’t notice how natural Zhou Han’s footsteps were when he went in. He didn’t stumble like he did just now at all, as if nothing had happened.
Turning her head to look at the tightly shut door of the men’s bathroom, Lin Li turned around and wanted to leave, but her steps were so heavy that she couldn’t take them. Recalling how he vomited after drinking, she still couldn’t let go of the worry in her heart.
So when Zhou han came out of the bathroom again, Lin Li was still standing not far away from the bathroom. When she saw him coming out from inside, she ran over to him in a hurry and reached out to help him up while asking, ” “How are you? are you feeling better?”
Zhou han didn’t say anything and just nodded.
Lin Li was still a little worried and said, ” do you want to go back first? ”
Stopping in his tracks, Zhou han lowered his head to look at her and asked, ” “You’re sending me back?”
Lin Li thought for a moment. She really didn’t feel at ease leaving him alone like this, so she could only nod. okay, I’ll go and tell Anran.
Zhou han nodded and said,”okay, I’ll wait for you at the door.” &Nbsp
When Lin Li went to inform Anran and came back, she saw Zhou han leaning against the pillar at the door with his eyes closed as if he was sleeping.
Lin Li stepped forward and was about to call out to him when he suddenly opened his eyes and stared at her. After a while, he said, ” “Are you all done?”
Lin Li was stunned for a moment, then she came back to her senses and nodded. okay, let’s go back first. She reached out to help him up.
Zhou han didn’t reject her and let her help him into the car.
After sending Zhou han to the car, Lin Li went to ask the staff at the venue to arrange a designated driver for her and asked him to drive Zhou Han’s car and follow behind her. When she came back after everything was arranged, she saw Zhou han leaning back on the seat and seemed to have fallen asleep. His mouth was slightly open, and his breathing was a little heavy and turbid.
Lin Li looked at him for a while, then finally adjusted the seat slightly to let him sleep more soundly. Then, she started the car and left.
Lin Li didn’t know if it was a coincidence or if someone was deliberately pretending to be asleep, but the second her car stopped in the parking lot and the engine was turned off, the person who was originally asleep opened her eyes and asked, ” “We’ve arrived?”
As she helped him up, Lin Li felt that something was wrong. Finally, she turned her head and looked at the person who had almost leaned his entire body weight on her. She couldn’t help but ask suspiciously, ” “Are you really drunk?”
Zhou han looked at her and deliberately pressed himself closer to her. His voice, which reeked of alcohol, whispered in her ear, ” what do you think? ”
Lin Li was a little uncomfortable from the smell of his alcohol. She turned her head away. Regardless of whether he was drunk or not, he must have drunk a lot.
When they returned home, Lin Li supported Zhou han with some effort to let him lie on the bed. It was unknown if it was unintentional or intentional, but when he fell down, Zhou Han’s hand was wrapped around Lin Li’s neck and he didn’t let go. He pulled Lin Li directly onto the bed with him. Fortunately, the bed was soft enough, so it didn’t hurt when they fell down.
However, after the two of them fell on the bed, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little strange. Lin Li wanted to remember, but she was pulled back by Zhou han. She saw that Zhou han was staring at Lin Li. His eyes were so deep that they were a little blurred. Lin Li was in a daze for a while and couldn’t react.
Zhou han raised his hand and gently brushed away the hair on Lin Li’s forehead. Then, his big palm gently touched her face.
The temperature of his palm was very hot and scorching. Lin Li couldn’t help but subconsciously support herself to sit up.
She heard Zhou han say, ” don’t move. The voice became a little seductive in this ambiguous and strange atmosphere, making it difficult to refuse.
As if she had been hit by a spell, Lin Li really stopped what she was doing and just stared at him blankly.
Seeing that she had stopped, Zhou han sighed softly, but his hand never left her face. listen to me carefully, okay? ”
Lin Li didn’t say anything and only looked at him with her big eyes. Her eyes seemed to be asking,”what is it?” What did he say?”
I’ve never used you as Ling Lan’s substitute. Zhou han looked at her and said in an unusually serious tone, ” I admit that I have feelings for Ling LAN for more than 10 years, and I also admit that this relationship has hurt me very, very deeply. However, I’ve never been someone who can’t let go of things. From the moment I divorced Ling LAN, my feelings for her had already reached the end. I’m still bothered by Xiao bin’s existence not because he’s proof of Ling Lan’s betrayal, but because he let me see for myself how wrong my feelings and love for the past 10 years were. after I broke up with Ling LAN, I didn’t start another relationship. It wasn’t because I couldn’t forget Ling LAN, nor was it because I was still living in the shadow of Ling Lan’s betrayal. Of course, it wasn’t because I was living in the unforgettable memories of her. I was just scared, timid, and didn’t dare to try again. But because it was you, I wanted to try again.
Lin Li almost subconsciously asked, ” why? ”
Zhou han smiled and opened his mouth slightly. His large palm slid from her cheek to her red lips, and his fingers caressed her red lips.
maybe it’s because we have similar experiences. Maybe it’s because I accidentally fell in love with you when we were licking each other’s wounds. Maybe … Actually, I don’t know … as he spoke, Zhou han didn’t look drunk at all.
Lin Li looked at him and felt her heart beating fast.
Gently caressing her red lips, Zhou han slowly lowered his head and leaned towards her. Just as he was about to kiss her lips, he was suddenly pushed away by Lin Li.
Lin Li sat up abruptly and said, ” you, you’re drunk. Then, she ran out of the room in a panic.
