There is a river next to the school, and at other times, it is a good place for couples to meet.
But today was a grand day at NTU, so there was no one here, and the river was flowing in the quiet.
A sullen figure was sitting on the bank, looking into the darkness of the river, wondering what was going on.
Suddenly the phone rings.
Only it was as if the young girl did not hear it, letting the phone ring, punctuating the darkness with a few moments of life as it were.
Finally, a second figure appeared, and this one ran so fast.
The sound of footsteps startled the young girl, but she did not turn her head.
It was only the dim face in the darkness that finally left crystal tears.
Zhou Yazhi simply wept silently, without choking, without sobbing.
Not even seeing, not even feeling that she was crying.
The figure walked over and sat next to her.
He opened his mouth and said, “What are you doing sitting here?”
It was Chen Hao, and when Chen Hao saw Zhou Yazhi, his whole body relaxed.
But when he saw Zhou Yazhi sitting by the river, there was another pang of fear.
Zhou Yazhi did not say anything.
Chen Hao continued to speak, “You sneaked here, trying to date behind my back, huh?”
Zhou Yazhi suddenly raised her head in indignation, tears kept rolling out of her eyes, cutting across her cheeks and falling down her arms.
“Am I dating a ghost?” Zhou Yazhi’s voice was calm.
Chen Hao coughed, “I feel like a ghost at this moment, okay?”
Zhou Yazhi once again bowed her head, seemingly not wanting to be talking.
Chen Hao, however, seemed to have a lot to say, gushing, “I feel like I deserve a beating today.”
“For the first time, I feel like I deserve a beating!”
“It was obvious that an angelic girl was in front of me and I almost missed it, and even almost regretted it for the rest of my life.”
“I realised that, so I panicked, I was afraid that I would never meet such a let such a nice girl again in my life, if she gave me another chance, let me jump from here even!”
Chen Hao kept talking.
It seemed that he was afraid that once he ran out of words, he would really run out of words.
Zhou Yazhi did not open her mouth, but her body trembled and she choked up.
Suddenly raising her head, her eyes blurred with tears, she could no longer see the person in front of her clearly.
But at this time, Chen Hao’s hand helped Zhou Yazhi wipe the tears from her cheeks, gently and slowly: “Today’s matter is very complicated, do you want to listen?”
“I’ve been listening!”
Zhou Yazhi finally spoke again.
“Because of some things in my family, I can’t let people think I’m good, I’d better let people think I’m fop, I’m scum, I’m defeated, this concert, it was indeed arranged for Zheng Chuyin.”
This time, Chen Hao was prepared to say everything to Zhou Yazhi.
Because he felt that if he didn’t say it clearly, he was afraid that he would really lose this girl in front of him.
If it was said before, Chen Hao had not paid too much attention to Zhou Yazhi.
But the moment he couldn’t find Zhou Yazhi just now, his panic, his fear, his nervousness, were all telling him.
He cared for Zhou Yazhi, and had never cared so much for any woman.
Even Shen Yu, the moment he broke up, Chen Hao had anger and loss, but it was as if there was a sense of relief.
Two completely different feelings, completely different considerations.
Chen Hao knew that Zhou Yazhi had really come into his heart and he understood his choice.
Chen Hao made the reason for this concert clear, and did not shy away from saying explicitly that it was indeed for Zheng Chuyin.
He did not shirk his responsibility by saying that it was all arranged by his housekeeper, nor did he say that it was not at all what he wanted.
Finally, Chen Hao said, “I don’t care about all these plans or whatever, I don’t care about anything, I just want you to grow old with me slowly until the end of time!”
The tears in Zhou Yazhi’s eyes were getting bigger and bigger, and no amount of wiping could finish it.
Chen Hao was straightforward and domineering, holding Zhou Yazhi in his arms and feeling the trembling of Zhou Yazhi’s delicate body.
Chen Hao’s heart was trembling.
Struggle!
Zhou Yazhi struggled, and how could she match the strength of this guy Chen Hao.
“Let go of me!”
“No let go!”
“If you don’t let go of me, I’ll shout!”
“Go ahead and shout, it’s useless to scream your throat out!”
“You’re shameless!”
“You’re wrong, I’m not shameless, I’m shameless!”
“You’re an A**hole!”
“If you’re a jerk, you’re a jerk, it doesn’t matter what you say as long as you get your beauty back!”
“……”
Zhou Yazhi couldn’t say anything else and didn’t struggle.
There is a saying that as long as a woman still cares about you, it is only a matter of time before she forgives you.
If a woman doesn’t care about you anymore, she won’t give you a second glance even if she says the sky is broken.
And Chen Hao, the animal, seems to understand the essence of having a thick skin and eating enough.
But it was at the moment of success.
Chen Hao’s mobile phone rang again.
“Your phone is ringing!”
“Just let it ring.”
“You answer it, it’s so noisy!”
“As you command, Lord Daughter-in-law!”
“Who’s your daughter-in-law now!”
Chen Hao went to get the phone, Zhou Yazhi finally broke away from Chen Hao’s bear hug, the tears in her eyes, finally stopped.
Chen Hao originally wanted to just turn off the phone and didn’t want to answer it either.
But instead, he was stunned to find that it was actually his watch that was ringing, the blue halo of light unusually loud and clear in this dark night first.
The identity of the person who could use this to contact himself was naturally those few people.
Chen Hao said to Zhou Yazhi, “I’ll take a call, Hong Lian, look after it!”
Under the shade of the tree, Red Lotus kept standing.
“Okay Young Master!”
Zhou Yazhi watched Chen Hao’s rush away, wiping her eyes with her hand as she kept her gaze on Chen Hao’s body.
Just as she had recognised Chen Hao for the first time, it seemed that she could never take her eyes off.
And Chen Hao walked to the far side and connected the miniature telephone device installed on his watch.
“Brat, answering the phone is so inky!”
It was Chen Hao’s father, Chen Fenglin, calling.
“Ah, Dad, what is it, aren’t we not allowed to contact father and son?” Chen Hao was in a hurry, and was trying to ride the hot iron to break down the defences that had suddenly risen in Zhou Yazhi’s mind.
“Yang Jue didn’t call you?”
“I did, but I was busy, so I let him talk afterwards, what is it?” Chen Hao sensed that something big was happening.
“This way, you take Jing Li and hurry back to the clan to get married!” Chen Fenglin’s words carried an unquestionable tone.
Chen Hao’s face gloomed, “I didn’t say I wanted to marry Jingli, moreover, I’m still in the middle of the clan examination and can’t return.”
“There’s no need for an examination, as long as you marry Jingli, you are the sole heir of the family!”
“What do you mean?” Chen Hao said in amus*ment, “Since when is the examination of our Chen clan’s family heir such a child’s play?”
“It’s not child’s play, Jingli’s status is special, good thing your old man set up a baby marriage for you a long time ago, the old guys of the clan all want the clan’s son to be able to marry Jingli, luckily there is a baby marriage, otherwise it wouldn’t be your turn, hurry up and bring Jingli back with you, this is the only test the clan has for you now!”
“……” Chen Hao did not speak, seemingly brewing his wording.
