I don't understand why he suddenly got angry.

To me, of course, Zhou Xun was more important, and I had already fulfilled his request by accompanying him shopping. I really didn't want to go to dinner with him.

After a pause, I said, "I'm really sorry. I'll treat you to a meal next time. You know that Uncle Zhou is injured …"

Shen's eyes narrowed, and he stared at me without a word, as if I were a man with a heart.

I sighed.

A friend is a friend, a lover is a lover. I can't fall in love with him because he saved me.

Besides, he doesn't really like me.

I couldn't understand why he had to be so vague on purpose.

Pausing for a moment, I looked at him seriously. "Senior Shen, to me, you're just a good friend. However, Uncle Zhou is someone I like. People are all close to me, so I can't treat you more highly than Uncle Zhou."

As such, compared to having lunch with him, I was more willing to accompany Zhou Xun.

Shen Zixian looked at me but didn't say anything.

I replied, "In the future, even if you receive any information from me, you can just ask me directly. There's no need to beat around the bush. The more you cause people to misunderstand about us, the more uncomfortable I will feel."

Shen Zixian did not expect me to speak in such a straightforward manner, his face slightly changed.

I thought for a moment and said, "But to be honest, you might not be able to get anything from me. After all, I like Uncle Zhou that much, so I won't sell him out."

After saying that, I turned around and left.

I didn't look at his expression. I just hoped he really would keep his distance.

On the other hand, my intuition told me that besides wanting to get news of Zhou Xun, he must have some other motive for approaching me.

Why else would he still pretend to like me?

After returning to the villa, Zhou Xun's expression was calm. After seeing me enter the room, he said, "I'm back."

I walked over with a smile and kissed him on the mouth. "Uncle Zhou, are you jealous?"

He glanced at me. "No."

I hugged his neck and coquettishly said, "I was wrong this time …" However, senior brother Shen did help me before, and I'm repaying his favor … "

Zhou Xun pinched my face and said, "Have you forgotten that I'm still waiting for you at home?"

"I didn't forget." I kiss him ingratiatingly. "I'll go to the kitchen and make some soup to apologize."

He looked at me. "You made me soup to atone for my sins?"

I felt that he was a little weird today, and it was probably because I was shopping with Shen Zisheng. I paused for a moment, smiled and pinched his nose, "Stop messing around, you know I only have you in my heart."

He seemed to be satisfied, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up.

I shook my head in amusement, but my heart was sweeter than honey's.

After comforting him for a while, I decided to go to the kitchen.

However, he grabbed my hand and said, "Let's go together."

I was surprised.

He said carelessly, "I haven't gotten out of my bed for the whole day. I was just in time to walk around."

I was a little worried about his injury, but it was his shoulder that was injured. After two days of recuperation, it should be fine for him to walk, so I didn't object.

He followed me to the kitchen. I washed and cut, and he leaned against the counter, watching me silently.

I felt his eyes on me.

After serving the stew, I wiped my hands clean and suddenly hugged his neck tightly. "Uncle Zhou, you're jealous, aren't you?"

He raised his eyebrows and looked at me seriously. "No."

No wonder!

I chuckled and kissed the corner of his mouth. "You're lying."

The smile on his face widened as he pointed at my nose and said, "Naughty."

I chuckled.

He touched my face and gently said, "I've made you wait for so long, so these few hours today are nothing …" I just wanted to tease you. "

I didn't expect him to say such a thing.

This moved me more than the confession, and made me feel more sweet than he said he liked me.

My nose stung.

He held my face in his hands and dabbed at the corners of my eyes with his thumb, his voice softer and softer. "From now on, I'll wait for you. I'm willing."

My tears could no longer bear it and I said, choked with sobs, "…" "Alright."

He smiled and kissed me.

We stuck together all night, and I was so happy that even when he taught me to play games he called me a fool, and I was so happy.

Early the next morning, I rushed to the meeting site, this time I didn't see Shen Zixian.

It is said that he returned home overnight.

I was a little surprised, thinking about how he asked me to go shopping with him yesterday, probably because he wanted to go back, so he bought me a present.

I just didn't expect him to be so anxious.

I guessed that the task of the task force had ended, and he followed me back.

Originally, I didn't know how to face him due to my heavy tone yesterday. But now that he has returned to his country, it's pretty good. At least, there's no need to feel awkward.

At the end of the afternoon exchange, Teacher Tang called out to me, "Speak, come over here for a bit."

I hurried over.

Teacher Tang said, "I have a task for you."

Next week, it will be the Chinese delegation's turn to make a report. Teacher Tang told me to prepare the materials and that I would be the speaker on stage.

It was a great honor to be able to show his face in front of the world's great medical arenas.

However, when I thought about how Brother Wei and the rest were older than me and more experienced than me, I hesitated for a moment before deciding to decline.

Upon hearing this, Teacher Tang patted my shoulder and said, "The original plan for this experiment was proposed by you. Just from this point alone, you have the qualifications to represent the Chinese delegation on the stage." As for the speech, there's still a week's time. You can write it slowly, and if you need to check on the information, you can come and find me. "

I didn't expect that Teacher Tang would give me such a high evaluation, so how could I have the nerve to refuse?

So it was settled, and for the next week I focused on it.

But I also did not forget to take care of Zhou Xun, daily soup for him, walking with him.

Every day was full.

What made me even more excited was that Zhou Xun was in good health, and after ten days of rest, he was already moving freely. Moreover, from his appearance, it was impossible to tell that he was injured.

Sometimes after he had finished his work, he would help me look through the files.

That day, just as I was about to go through a book, I heard something. "There's a huge library in the center of the city with a very complete set of materials. I've already asked Ah Ning to buy the reference book you wanted."

My eyes widened in disbelief.

He already knew what I wanted, so he prepared everything in advance. It was as if everything was under his control.

This really surprised me, and made me feel really happy.

Seven days later, the day of his speech finally arrived.

I secretly practiced in advance. Although I was a bit nervous, I was still well-prepared.

Below the stage, there were experts from various countries. I politely smiled at everyone, using a relaxed tone to start the match, and my attitude was neither humble nor haughty.

As time passed, I gradually relaxed and presented everything I had prepared.

I saw Teacher Tang smiling and occasionally nodding at me.

Senior brother Wei also secretly gave me a thumbs up, and everyone's applause didn't seem perfunctory.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

At the end, the applause continued.

The effect should be pretty good. I'm quite satisfied.

It was just that when I stepped down from the stage, I suddenly saw Zhou Xun standing in the doorway, clapping along with the rest of the audience.

He was actually present … When did he come?!

He smiled at me through the crowd, and his eyes were soft.

I couldn't help but look up, as if the people around me weren't there anymore. It was just me and him.

With great difficulty, I resisted the urge to run towards him.

Very soon, everyone surrounded me. Teacher Tang praised me for doing a good job, while Senior Brother Wei directly applauded me. Even some of the girls who were displeased with me in the beginning came up to congratulate me.

I seemed to be surrounded by applause and praise.

But at this moment, I couldn't help but look towards the door.

Zhou Xun was still standing there.

His eyes followed me, and I felt a strange sensation.

It was as if from now on, I could make his eyes stay on me and not be the only one who painstakingly chased after him.

In order to celebrate for me, Teacher Tang said that she booked a Chinese restaurant upstairs and invited everyone to have a meal with her.

Everyone cheered.

At this moment, Zhou Xun finally walked over.

I caught a glimpse of him, and for a moment my heart beat like a drum.

He stopped in front of me, smiled, took my hand, and greeted Teacher Tang.

Teacher Tang passionately invited him to have a meal together with her, but he agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Afterwards, everyone took the elevator upstairs, and I naturally walked with Zhou Xun.

I saw that all the girls were curiously sizing up Zhou Xun, and some of them even deliberately approached him.

It really was Zhou Xun. Even though they knew he was engaged, there were still women who rushed over like a flock of birds, unable to resist his charm at all.

The good thing was … This person has confessed to me... He said he liked me...

Thinking of this, I had some secret joy in my heart.

Just like how I was able to obtain a treasure that everyone was coveting.

At dinner, Zhou Xun sat next to Teacher Tang, while I sat next to him. Everyone congratulated me on the success of my speech. Someone took this opportunity to drink with Zhou Xun. But how could I let him drink when he was hurt, so I made an excuse and declined.

Everyone laughed at how strict I thought of Zhou Xun.

Some girls even talked about their husband going out to find a woman because his wife was too strict with him.

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but I had no intention of arguing with her.

She was only jealous of me. Since I had already become Zhou Xun's fiancee, what else was there to think about?

Zhou Xun didn't even give the other party a second glance as he concentrated on cooking for me.

After everyone had had three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became even more lively.

Perhaps it was because Zhou Xun gave people a cold feeling, but no one dared to talk to him.

We sat in the corner and whispered.

Zhou Xun fed me a mouthful of food before saying, "Darling, did you know that you were dazzling on stage just now?"

My face was a little hot as I stammered, "... "Really?"

"En." He scratched my nose and said, "I think you're very suitable for research."
