Zhou Yao was willing to die for her. Zhou Yao was willing to die and still unwilling to marry her!
There was such a huge difference between her and Leng Zhiyuan!
Han Xuan laughed coldly and said, “Miss Leng, you made me recall something. The ones who are in biased love are always the ones who are fearless.”
Leng Zhiyuan did not care about that sentence, and she softly said, “Miss Han, aren’t you using the gratitude that Zhou Yao has for your older brother, but can you understand the meaning of this gratitude to Zhou Yao?”
Han Xuan froze and did not say anything.
“When he was 16, Zhou Yao was in his rebellious teenage years. It was your older brother Han Hong who used his own life to hand the badge that was so heavy on his shoulders, and he handed it over to Zhou Yao. That was responsibility, his values. In the past ten years, Zhou Yao has lived for not himself only, and he was also living for your older brother.
“Since I appeared, you might have thought that Zhou Yao was extremely cruel to you. You thought that Zhou Yao forgot his roots, but you don’t know how much you have changed right now, and the one who is the most frustrated and whose heart hurts the most is him. Whatever he has, with his family background, power, status, they all could be so near within his reach, but he could not see any of that, and the only thing that he has is his title of being Major General. This title was given to him by the citizens! The only thing that he has assigned to him is his own life.
“Because of you, was he selfish with his own life? The time in Yun Nan, you were poisoned, and he could not bother about anything else and helped you to suck out the poison. Whatever he has, the things that you want, he was never selfish with them, but you did not want a single thing, and you actually wanted his heart. That heart, he cannot give it out, and he would never give it out!
“Miss Han, in the past ten years that your older brother has been gone, Zhou Yao treated you as his biological younger sister. You were never his stress or burden, but this love from you has made him and you come to this stage today. He is a person who is nonchalant and bold, and he loves his freedom the most. You have totally locked him down and burdened him, and you used the reason of loving him to make him unable to advance forward.
“Miss Han, did you really love your older brother? Your older brother paid with his life and made this path out for the citizens of our country. He is not something you can make use of whenever you like to.”
“Did you really ever love Zhou Yao? If you loved him, he is such a man with loyal feelings, why would you step on his painful spot and have such forceful requests?”
At last, Leng Zhiyuan curled the corners of her lips up into a smile as she said, “It’s not that I am not afraid of anything, but him being like this, how are you asking me to bear to push him out to you when you are behaving like this?”
Han Xuan and Zhou Yao had known each other for almost ten years now, but Han Xuan did not understand him, and she did not understand him before.
Han Xuan who was on the other end covered her mouth tightly with her hand. Hot tears weaved through her fingers. She was unwilling to cry out loud, and she was also unwilling to cry in front of Leng Zhiyuan.
But Leng Zhiyuan’s words pierced the deepest part of her heart. Her older brother was her pride, and he was also the country’s pride, but now, she was using her older brother’s sacrifice as a weapon in front of Zhou Yao.
Older Brother…
If Older Brother were still around now, what would Older Brother do?
She was living so painfully and struggled so much. Would Older Brother support her?
Han Xuan threw the phone harshly against the wall, and she hugged her kneecaps as she cried out painfully.
The busy tone rang out from the other end. Leng Zhiyuan knew that Han Xuan had hung up. She lowered her gaze down to have a look at the phone in her hand before she sighed out loud.
Han Xuan was not a bad person originally, but she loved him and was unable to get him, so she went on this extreme path because of that.
With this type of thing, nobody could help her.
Leng Zhiyuan was in a daze. At this moment, a large palm barged into her lowered gaze, and the phone that she was holding in her hand was snatched away.
She quickly raised her head up and saw Zhou Yao with one hand in his pocket, and he was standing up straight in front of her.
“You… Why are you back?”
She answered his call secretly, and now she was caught red handed, but she still felt a little embarrassed.
Zhou Yao looked at her firmly, and his expressions were very serious as he said, “Who allowed you to touch my phone?”
As she looked at his unhappy expressions, the guilty feeling in Leng Zhiyuan’s heart disappeared completely, she raised her chin up as she retorted boldly, “Why, is there a secret that I cannot see in your phone? You are afraid of me finding out? Look at how guilty you are right now!”
Zhou Yao had a glance at her cherry red lips that she’d lifted up slightly, then he frowned and said, “In the future, you are not allowed to touch my phone again.”
“Hmph, fine then. Who likes to touch your phone?” Leng Zhiyuan was also upset, and she raised her heels to head out the door.
This bastard. If he had something to say, didn’t he know how to say it properly? Why was he so serious? Would it be because she answered Han Xuan’s call on her own accord, and that was why he was so angry?
She was trying to persuade out of her goodwill just now, and it wasted the trust that she always had for him.
Bastard. She did not want to bother with him anymore!
She wanted to get out of the room, but she just took two steps, and a muscular arm suddenly curled around her soft waist. Her world turned upside down, and she was already up on the man’s shoulders.
“Zhou Yao, what are you doing?” she shouted out immediately.
Her soft back was pushed against the soft bed sheets. He threw her onto the large bed. She wanted to get up, but the man’s handsome body came pressing down. He curled his lips up as he smiled and said, “You are angry?”
The smile on the corners of his lips was extremely playful. Leng Zhiyuan had a glance at him and knew that she’d fallen for his trick. He was teasing her just now.
She clenched her fist and hit him. She was extremely unhappy, and she stretched her leg out to kick his thigh as she said, “I thought that you were really unhappy just now.”
“I was only joking around, Wifey. Don’t treat it seriously.” He used strength as he kissed her cheeks.
Leng Zhiyuan pushed him away quickly as she said, “I thought that you were really angry just now. I was still thinking, there might be a secret that cannot be seen inside your phone.”
“Of course I have secrets. My phone is full of national secrets.”
“You have such a glib tongue! You should know that I am referring to you and Han Xuan…”
“Han Xuan and I…” Zhou Yao raised his eyebrows before gazing at her intently, and he said, “Just now, didn’t you speak very well on the phone? And you are throwing a tantrum with me now, huh?”
He heard what she said?
He must have come over a long time ago, and he was probably outside the door as he listened to what she said.
Leng Zhiyuan averted her gaze and tried to defend herself as she said, “I just spoke nonsense…”
Zhou Yao stretched two fingers out to pin her small chin that was trying to duck away, and he forced her to look into his eyes. He was soft and gentle as he asked, “Wifey, you understand me so well?”
His gaze was hot and bright, and his eyes were just like the stars in the sky as he looked at her intently. There was joy in the bottom of his eyes together with satisfaction, love…that enveloped her, and he was about to melt her.
“I said that I was saying random things…”
“Really? Wifey, you are not being honest. I don’t know whether your body would also be the same…” His large, rough palm came over from the corner of her shirt, and he placed his hand inside.
“Zhou Yao, don’t…” She stretched her hand out to press his large palm, and she could not stop him at all. The black shadow before her eyes came closer, and he kissed her again.
Zhou Yao did not close his eyes. He opened his eyes as he looked at the woman beneath him, and he looked at her flushed cheeks that were beneath his palm. She pushed him slightly before closing her eyes. Her dazed expression had a soft attractiveness to it…
Zhou Yao closed his eyes and kissed her even more deeply.
