The Rest of My Life

Zhou Xun's face darkened, but he did not comment.

My heart tightened.

Zhou Xun put Rui Rui aside and stared at me. His eyes were dark and gloomy. I didn't know what he was thinking about.

And I realized, weakly, that Rui Rui was still here, and now was not the time to talk.

Luckily, Rui Rui was too focused on playing with his train model to notice my conversation.

I forced a smile at Zhou Xun and said, "Let's talk later."

Zhou Xun was probably worried about Rui Rui, so he didn't say anything.

However, he quickly carried Rui Rui out. When he returned, he was alone.

I saw his serious expression and felt a little regretful when I asked him about it.

Even if there's something going on between him and Qin Xueman, so what? Without Qin Xueman and Bei Bei, he wouldn't have fallen for me anyway.

But at this point, I could only tighten my body and wait for him to speak.

He sat down on the edge of the bed again and stared at me with his deep eyes. "It's fake, of course," he said.

For some reason, I didn't feel relieved at all. Instead, I felt more and more uncomfortable.

I'm actually thinking, is he lying to me …

That is to say, I no longer trust him in my subconscious, and will only have more suspicions in the future …

My eyes unconsciously became moist and moist, and an indescribable bitterness welled up in my heart.

Zhou Xun looked at me quietly for a moment, then slowly extended his hand and touched the corner of my eye, saying, "Five years ago, in order to save me, Qin Xueman was shot in the chest. Her condition is critical. Due to a certain reason, this matter must be kept a secret. After discussing it with Grandfather, I announced to the public that she was hospitalized because of my miscarriage. "

I looked at him in surprise.

So that was the case?

He nodded solemnly. There was not a trace of falsehood in his eyes.

I believed it all at once.

Was it because of this that he was especially tolerant towards her? Because Qin Xueman had saved his life before, even though he knew that Qin Xueman liked him and would bring him trouble, he still kept her by his side.

I felt ashamed for having let my imagination run wild. With a flushed face, I said, "Uncle Zhou, I'm sorry. I was thinking too much …"

Zhou Xun pinched my earlobes and said gently, "It's alright. The more you mind, the more you care about me. I'm not happy at all."

I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw that he really didn't seem to be angry, but I still felt embarrassed.

He smiled and kissed me, saying, "You did the right thing. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly."

I nodded, secretly glad I hadn't kept it to myself.

Of course, Wan Zhenghao didn't have any ill intentions. After all, she was only fifteen years old five years ago, and the Zhou family wouldn't have told her such an important secret. Perhaps even Aunty Zhou wouldn't have known about this.

My heart relaxed. As long as Zhou Xun didn't lie to me, there was nothing for me to care about.

As for Shen Zixian's series of warnings, I didn't take them to heart.

Zhou Xun did have a reason for looking for me, but I believe that my mother's death had nothing to do with him.

To be honest, I was suspicious of Shen Zixian before, but now I feel even more suspicious of him. Otherwise, why would he mention my mother, and even say that Zhou Xun might have been the one who killed my mother?

I never talked about my mother in front of him. How did he know I suspected my mother's death?

But even though I don't believe Shen Zixian, I hesitated for a long time and still couldn't delete Shen Zixian's WeChat.

Before I went to bed, Zhou Xun personally drugged my knee. Looking at his gentle face and feeling the care and care in his movements, my mood was even better.

The difficulties he had faced today seemed to have become negligible.

A good night's dream.

The next day Zhou Xun really did not go out, and after eating breakfast with me, he stayed in his room to process the documents.

She said that she would come and see me at around ten. While I waited for her, I also looked for the clinical data.

Although Zhou Xun and I basically did not talk, but because he was by my side, I still felt quite warm.

Midway through, he received a text message: "Did you already ask Elder Cousin Xun how did he answer you?"

Before I could react, a second message came in: [Let me guess if he told you that Qin Xueman suffered a serious injury in order to save him. He can't reveal it to the others, and he misled everyone into thinking that Qin Xueman miscarried him?]

I was very surprised that she had even guessed Zhou Xun's explanation.

This is different from what I imagined. I thought she didn't know about the matter of Qin Xueman being injured by Zhou Xun, but now it seems that she did.

In this case, wouldn't it prove that what she said was the truth?

Of course, I believe in Zhou Xun.

However, no matter what, there was always one of them who was lying …

While I was still in shock, she sent a third text message: [Cousin Xun wasn't wrong. At that time, it was because she blocked a shot for him that she miscarried.]

I was stunned.

Was this the truth?

Zhou Xun wasn't lying, but … If Qin Xueman saved her miscarriage, then he must feel very guilty … It made sense for him to keep Qin Xueman by his side.

I found myself in a state of confusion.

At this moment, the fourth text message arrived: [I advise you not to show my text message to Cousin Xun, because what I said is the truth.] It is very likely that Elder Cousin Xun will tell you more lies in order for you to continue to believe him. You know, in order to cover up a lie, there's a lot of panic. Do you wish him to keep deceiving you?]

My heart thumped when I saw it.

I have to admit, it hit the wall late at night.

Of course, I did not wish to be deceived by Zhou Xun. If he were to try to appease me and cause me more panic, I would definitely feel terrible.

This put me in a dilemma.

I pinch my cell phone and for a moment I can't make up my mind.

Perhaps it was because Zhou Xun felt that I was in a bad mood, but he raised his head to look at me. With a gentle voice, he asked, "What's wrong?"

I suppressed the surging waves in my heart and shook my head. "There are quite a few trash texts that come at once. I'm a bit fidgety."

Zhou Xun frowned slightly as he looked deeply at me, but he didn't question me further.

I heaved a sigh of relief. Afterwards, I became absent-minded, afraid that Zhou Xun would notice anything amiss. I could only lower my head and pretend to be studying the clinical data.

It was a good thing that Jun Yao had finally arrived.

Zhou Xun greeted her and then left.

There was only me and Qingyao in the room. Her face was solemn as she sized me up and down. Perhaps it was because she saw that my complexion wasn't bad, but a smile appeared on her face and she said, "It's better than I thought."

I wasn't having an abortion. I looked fine, of course, but I couldn't tell her.

It was also because I hid the truth from her and made her worry that I felt guilty. I held her hand and said, "It was just an accident. Don't worry, I'm fine."

However, after staying inseparable from me for four years, she keenly noticed that something was wrong with me. She said softly, "But you don't look too happy."

I was actually thinking about sending a text to her later, but I also couldn't tell her about it. It was mainly because I didn't want to involve her in it. Thus, I quickly adjusted my mood, shook her arm, and said, "I was just bored to the point of panicking."

When she heard this, Teng Qingshan smiled and said, "You just can't stay idle. In the past, you were busier than anyone else at school. You either read books or do experiments … …" It would be hard for me to let you stay in the house now. "

I couldn't help laughing too.

The medical department already has a lot of courses, and I don't like to play outside, so I wholeheartedly study. She went out with two other girls in the dorm a few times before she decided not to go. When we got to know each other well, she would often go to the laboratory with me. I conducted my experiments while she painted on the side.

Teacher Tang also rather liked her, so he didn't chase her away. Sometimes, when she was in a good mood, he would even discuss painting techniques with her.

Unfortunately … It had all become the past.

My life has changed so much since my mother died that I don't even know what's going to happen to me.

My life plan was, after graduation, to go to the hospital to be a doctor, and then to bring my mother to the capital. I should get married and have children, and when the time comes, my mother might forget about Su Yan …

But now it was gone.

I felt uncomfortable, but in order to not let her worry, I hurriedly calmed my emotions and changed the topic, asking her how was the business in the gallery.

Li Jun smiled and said, "It's quite good."

It had only been a month since the painting was opened, but it had already sold more than ten paintings at a high price. Among them, three of them were of her own, and the price wasn't low either.

I said in pleasant surprise, "In that case, everyone likes your painting very much!"

But she did paint very well, and even Teacher Tang couldn't stop praising her.

A bashful smile appeared on Li Jun's face as she said, "At the beginning, I felt that it might have been my family that encouraged me to buy it secretly …"

Although she had a father that almost wanted to sell her off, she also had a mother that doted on her, and a brother that gradually took control of the family business. He also doted on her a lot, so her family actually treated her very well.

I smiled and cast her a sidelong glance. "You're too unconfident. I've already said it before, you really draw exceptionally well!"

The corner of Li Yao's mouth curled up. She smiled as she pinched my fingers and said, "Yes, I did check it out later. It was indeed bought by someone else. It is said that it was collected by the customer."

I was especially happy as I held her tightly and teased, "From now on, you are a master painter of China."

She smiled embarrassedly, but excitement could be seen on her face.

After we chatted for a while, Teng Yao suddenly said softly, "Remembering, you …" Are you sure you don't want to leave the Zhou Mansion? "

She persuaded me on the phone yesterday, so I'm not surprised she mentioned it again.

I shook my head in surprise. "I … Love, Uncle Zhou … "

Li Jun opened her eyes wide.

I smiled bitterly. "I know it's good to leave, but I still can't bear to leave."

Even if Zhou Xun was lying to me, I still wanted to stay by his side.

Li Jun remained silent for a long while.

I think she probably understands me, after all she secretly likes Shen Zixian, as a one-love, she should be unable to resist the other party's little show of goodwill.

Sure enough, Teng Qingshan didn't say anything. However, a trace of hesitation flashed across her face, as if she was still worried about something.

I hurriedly said, "Don't worry about me. At least Uncle Zhou has treated me pretty well."

On the surface, at least, he was considerate.

Li Jun remained silent for a while before she said, "Yes. Actually …" This morning, I met with Young Master Shen. "

I looked at her in surprise.

She whispered, "I happened to go to the gallery to get something, and he was waiting for me there... He told me a lot, it's basically all your business. " She paused, then said in an even deeper voice, "He said …" "He likes you …"
