The Rest of My Life

Just as the servant finished his report, Zhou Xun walked in.

I was a little stunned.

Who would have thought that he would come to the Shen family on New Year's Eve.

Shen Fang immediately put on a smiling face and greeted him, "Ah Xun, why have you come?"

He called her so affectionately, as if Zhou Xun were not his nephew, but his own son.

Zhou Xun greeted him politely, saying, "I'm here to pick up the class."

His eyes fell on my face.

I looked him in the eye, and for a moment I couldn't make out what I was feeling.

On the other hand, Shen Zi Ruo immediately wiped her face, and happily waved at Zhou Xun, saying, "Brother-in-law, you're here. Come and sit."

She pointed to a spot beside her.

I looked at her in disbelief.

In fact, she and I were sitting opposite each other at the table. Zhou Xun would never be able to sit on her side of the table, and in the end she was overthinking things and actually wanted Zhou Xun to sit next to her.

I could only sigh to myself that she really had the courage.

Zhou Xun glanced at her briefly and ignored her. He walked around her and sat down next to me.

I saw Shen Ziruo's resentful and unwilling expression as she glared at me

This kind of matter isn't something that I can control. I can only shake my head to myself and pretend that I didn't see her resentment.

From the moment Zhou Xun appeared until now, his eyes had been fixed on me.

He gently said, "Darling, grandpa wants me to bring you home for the new year."

Was he purposely moving out of Grandpa Zhou?

I looked at him in silence.

He smiled slightly, waiting for my answer.

I opened my mouth and found that I could not refuse him straightforwardly.

Grandpa Zhou is an elder after all, I have to think carefully.

Shen Fang interrupted, "Since it's Old Master Zhou's decision, I shall recite it so that you can return with Ah Xun. Since Ah Xun came to pick you up, you shouldn't get into any more trouble with him. These two days, your anger should be over, our Shen family doesn't have any stingy girls. "

Zhou Xun took advantage of the situation and said, "Darling, I know I was wrong. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this once."

He was really cunning.

I cast him a sidelong glance but still did not let up.

Zhou Xun revealed a helpless expression as he turned to Shen Fang, saying, "Uncle, I would like to talk to Nian Bing alone, is that possible?"

Shen Fang's attitude was very good, "Of course you can, you should have a good chat. It just so happens that we finished our meal and went out first. "

In fact, breakfast had just been served and everyone had just had a bite to eat.

Shen Zi Shi stared at the plate with the fried eggs in front of him, his face was extremely ugly.

He coldly stared at Zhou Xun and said, "You really came at the right time!"

Zhou Xun maintained his smile.

Shen Zixian grabbed the fried egg and took a big bite, but he still left in the end.

Shen Zi Ruo seemed to want to stay, but was pulled away by her mother.

Only Zhou Xun and I were left in the dining room.

Compared to two days ago, my heart felt like it had been slashed by knives. I have calmed down a lot now, and if I were to face him again, I would be able to maintain a peaceful state of mind.

Zhou Xun didn't answer immediately, but stared at me quietly.

I felt uneasy and decided to break the silence. "Uncle Zhou, we really need to have a good chat, but today is the New Year's Eve. How about... We'll talk more about it in a few days? "

Zhou Xun suddenly held my hand gently and said, "Of course we can talk about it in a few days, but since you're not willing to spend the New Year with me, I can't explain it to grandfather."

I glanced at him.

As long as he's willing, he'll definitely have countless reasons to fool Grandpa Zhou. I'm sure he's using this as an excuse to force me to return with him to the Zhou family.

I looked down at our clasped hands and said nothing.

His voice became softer and softer as he said, "Grandpa already knows about your kidnapping..." "I also know that I didn't get there in time to save you …"

I looked up in surprise and met his eyes.

He said, "I took the initiative to tell grandpa."

I stared.

He held my hand tightly and slowly said, "I even told grandpa about Northern Bei … Grandfather told me to think it through clearly. If I decide to be with you again, then I can't let you down again in the future. "

This was something I hadn't expected.

He actually confessed to Grandpa Zhou about Ye Beibei.

Grandpa Zhou told him to think things through, and he finally came to pick me up …

Does this mean he chose me in the end?

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't moved.

But thinking about how he lied to me to see Ye Bei Bei, I still felt terrible.

Zhou Xun said in a low voice, "Grandfather also said that if you don't forgive me, I don't need to go back."

His tone was particularly pitiful, as if he had really been abandoned.

I was speechless.

He suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Darling, I know why you want to stay in the Shen family … "You can come back with me today, and I'll send you back tomorrow, okay?" He looked at me with his serene eyes and solemnly said, "I will help you."

My heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

He … He seemed to be hinting at me that he already knew that I had stayed in the Shen family to investigate my mother's past?

I looked into his eyes.

His eyes were deep and serene, as if he could see through everything.

I tried to calm myself.

It's no big deal if he finds out. I've never had any secrets from him.

He shook my hand and said, "Darling, just promise me, okay?"

I lowered my eyelids and said, "I can go back for New Year's Eve dinner with you, but you have to agree to one of my requests."

He gently replied, "Tell me."

I raised my eyes to look at him. "My request is that you agree to our divorce."

His expression froze.

Her pair of beautiful eyes became increasingly serene and profound.

I looked him straight in the eye and did not flinch.

He suddenly squeezed my fingers and said, "No."

I felt pain and tried to pull my hand away.

He squeezed even tighter, almost crushing my bones.

My face paled as I anxiously said, "Let me go first."

He must have reacted. He immediately relaxed, but didn't let go. Instead, he put my fingers on his lips and kissed them one by one.

I was a little annoyed, but now I was embarrassed and my face was burning.

He sighed and said, "I'm sorry, I was too nervous... I really don't want to divorce you... "I won't agree to that …"

I frowned.

He had an affectionate look, but... Wasn't the most important person in his heart Ye Beibei?

I couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Zhou, can't you let me go?"

He looked at me in silence.

I avoided his gaze and said, "Now that I'm pregnant with your child, you … Can you spare me for the sake of the child? You initially used someone as a shield to protect Miss Ye, so you should be well aware that a shield is very dangerous. It's just a gun handle. I wonder when you'll encounter danger … Do you want to put me in danger? Even if you don't love me, with your flesh and blood, can't you let me go for my safety? "

These words caused Zhou Xun's face to turn ugly.

My tears fell, "Uncle Zhou, I want to ask you something. Do you have a heart? Even if you only love Miss Ye, I have been by your side for more than half a year no matter what … Can you really see me in danger? "

Zhou Xun's face gradually turned black as he stared at me without blinking.

After a long while, his finger lightly brushed my cheek and said, "Darling, I will protect you."

I shook my head. "Then how did Nightfall catch me?" "Can you promise that you won't be against me in this court?"

Actually, part of the reason why the court caught me was for the research results.

Perhaps in the beginning, the grand court had targeted me because of Zhou Xun, but now it seemed that they had another motive for capturing me.

I took out the imperial court just to remind Zhou Xun that he still had to avenge his father, and that there would be many dangers in the future.
