The Rest of My Life

Zhou Xun stretched out his hand to hold mine.

I quietly avoided it.

The carriage fell silent for a moment.

Rui sat between me and Zhou Xun, and when he saw that we were silent, he looked at us curiously. Then he jumped into Zhou Xun's arms and leaned over to hug me on the shoulder.

I was stunned. I didn't expect his mind to be so sensitive. I quickly smiled and comforted him, "It's fine. Little Aunt and Little Uncle are having serious business. Rui, don't be afraid."

He nodded obediently and kissed my face, then said: "That Rui is good, and won't talk anymore."

I felt like my heart was about to be taken over by him, so I gave him a kiss as well.

Zhou Xun touched Rui Rui's face lovingly and then looked at me tenderly.

He then said: "Young Master Gu found me yesterday and told me that he can provide me with some information, on condition that his sister returns to the country to visit her family. The information he gave us was indeed very useful, so I agreed. "

I was silent.

It's not that I don't believe his words. On the contrary, other than the time when he lied to me for Ye Beibei, the rest of the time is trustworthy.

What I'm thinking is, what kind of information did Gucci provide that made him agree to Gucci's terms without hesitation.

He held my hand and said, "I'm sorry, Nian, but I should have discussed this matter with you first. After all, you are the victim. You have the most say in how to deal with GuQiong."

I lowered my head to look at our interlocked hands. "You …" "Let me go first …"

He did not move.

I sighed. "Since we're going to split up, shouldn't we pay more attention?"

His eyes grew dark and he stared straight at me.

After a while, he slowly retracted his hand.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

If he continued to stare at me, I would almost give in. It was his presence that made it impossible for me to persevere.

I collected my thoughts and replied, "I don't blame you …." But I want to ask you a few questions. "

He nodded and seriously replied, "Please ask."

I replied, "I heard from grandfather that Big Brother is going to transfer back to [Di] Capital..." Are you planning to start implementing the plan? "

Zhou Xun narrowed his eyes, his expression becoming solemn as he looked at me deeply.

I don't quite understand his reaction.

He slowly said, "Recitation, you really are very intelligent."

I started, and then realized that he was trying to answer my question in a disguised manner.

I guess I wasn't wrong.

I frowned and asked, "Is the information provided by Gu Qi related to mercenaries?"

The light in his eyes became increasingly profound as he said, "Correct, he knows what happened to Qin Xueman."

Hearing Qin Xueman's name, I remembered that she had disappeared not long ago. Zhou Ning had stayed in Switzerland to look for clues.

Due to the conflict between me and Zhou Xun in the past few days, I had forgotten to ask for follow-up information.

I couldn't help but ask, "Have you found her yet?"

Zhou Xun said, "A Ning found some clues and knew that she went back to the mercenary group. She went back on her own accord, but we don't know the reason."

I was surprised.

If she chose to surrender to Zhou Xun, that would also mean she had betrayed the royal court. Why would she take the initiative to run back? Wasn't she afraid that the royal court would deal with her?

Especially since she was the younger sister of the same father, the court would not let her off.

I looked at Zhou Xun suspiciously.

He said, "Then it was Gucci who gave me the information that his father had found her in the court and said he wanted to talk to her about her mother."

Things sounded complicated, and among them was the leader of the mercenary group, as well as the woman with a big purpose …

However, since Qin Xueman had chosen to follow Zhou Xun, why not first discuss it with him?

Wasn't she afraid of a scam from the court? Wasn't she afraid of a scam from the court?

I put the question.

Zhou Xun muttered to himself, "I haven't contacted her yet. I don't know what she thinks, but Gu Qi's information should be correct." Seeing me look at him, he explained, "I told you, Switzerland is the Zhou family's territory. If it wasn't for Qin Xueman leaving voluntarily, no one else would have been able to find her."

I frowned. "But …" Did you not sense that the mercenary had contacted her? "

At that time, Qin Xueman definitely had Zhou Xun's men by her side. Could it be that none of them had noticed Qin Xueman's match?

Zhou Xun was silent for a few seconds. "This is the second clue that Gu Qi gave me."

I don't understand.

He said, "We have someone here to cover for Qin Xueman."

I opened my eyes wide and blurted out, "Who is it?"

Zhou Xun replied, "You don't know him. Ah Ning has already dealt with him."

I thought to myself, Gu Qi only gave me the information yesterday, and I've already dealt with him. His reaction was really fast.

Moreover, from his casual appearance, he shouldn't be a very important person.

However, even if they were small fries, they could be bad at times, so they still had to be vigilant.

Zhou Xun suddenly looked at me and said, "Nian Nian, do you know? Before I agreed to part ways with you, I thought about many things."

I looked at him in silence.

He said in a low voice, "I don't want to let you go, but I know that what I'm going to do next is very dangerous. I'm afraid that it might implicate you, so I can only agree."

He stared at me and said, "Earlier, I told you, we will separate temporarily, but we won't announce it to the public … Now I've changed my mind. "

I was stunned.

He said, "I will choose a time to let the people outside know that we have already divorced. You have nothing to do with me."

I was getting more and more confused.

When I suggested we split up, he wouldn't agree, and I was anxious about that.

But now that he has agreed, I feel lost again.

He was probably afraid that I would be harmed after the plan was implemented, right?

This intention of his was naturally very impressive … Available...

I didn't say anything.

He said gently, "I know you want to stay in the Shen family. You can't let Shen Fang know about our separation. Therefore, I will delay the announcement to the public for a few months. Don't worry."

I looked at him, my eyes slightly sore.

He thought of everything for me, and it was delicate and considerate.

I almost impulsively hugged him and cried that we should not separate.

But I kept silent.

He said, "As for Grandpa, I will explain everything to him in the next few days."

After a moment of silence, I replied, "Alright, you can make the arrangements. I'll listen to you."

He looked at me deeply for a moment and said nothing.

After that, we went all the way to the Zhou Mansion in silence.

The Zhou family was much more lively than the Shen family. Uncle and Uncle came back on Tuesday with their wives and children. Brother Zhou and Second Brother Zhou were also at home. Other than Aunt Zhou, everyone else was with them.

The moment we entered, Grandpa Zhou waved at Rui Rui and me, "Come over quickly. I was just thinking that you guys should be here soon."

I was naturally delighted when he welcomed me in such a way.

However, thinking back to what Zhou Xun had just told me, I couldn't help but feel somewhat depressed.

I could only restrain myself from thinking about those things. With a smile on my face, I went up to Grandpa Zhou to pay my respects, and then greeted Uncle Tuesday and Uncle Wednesday.

Because of Aunt Zhou's matter, my two uncles and I were still quite distant, but Tuesday Uncle's attitude wasn't too bad, and he even sealed me a red packet.

Uncle Wednesday didn't say much, but during dinner time, he suddenly said, "Dad, shouldn't we bring Xiao Yi back?"

When he mentioned Aunt Zhou, everyone fell silent.

Even Rui Rui didn't dare to laugh out loud. He bit his spoon and looked at the adults in confusion.
