The Rest of My Life

Let me ask you, do you believe me?

I feel like my heart is about to stop.

But … We're not that kind of relationship at all.

Even if he had to pretend to be his girlfriend, there was no need … There was no need to go this far …

Besides, I hadn't agreed to be his shield.

I snapped out of it and gently drew my hand back.

Zhou Xun did not force him and released me.

Somehow, I was a little disappointed.

And then he couldn't help but spit at himself, how unreasonable.

Zhou Xun said: Go and sit on the sofa.

Then he told the servant to bring me my shoes.

I stammered out my thanks, but I did feel warm inside.

Ever since Gong Shan crawled onto Su Shiyan's bed, after my mother was immersed in her grief, it had been a long time since I felt such minuscule and touching concern for her.

Zhou Xun only smiled slightly.

It was a lovely smile, and it filled my heart.

I didn't dare to look at him again. I lowered my eyes and whispered, "Uncle Zhou, why did you suddenly come back?"

There was no sign.

Zhou Xun did not answer, but just passed the phone to me.

I looked over suspiciously.

I saw that his WeChat was open. It was the interface for me to send him messages.

I don't understand.

What did he mean?

He didn't answer me at the time, and I was upset for a long time.

He said slowly, "Didn't you miss me? I just ordered a plane ticket to be booked. "

I started, then looked up and squinted at him.

He smiled and looked me in the eye. "Huh?"

It was only one word, but because he had deliberately suppressed his voice, it seemed exceptionally warm and mellow, so pleasant to the ear.

I stretched out my hand and made a pinching motion with my hand. "I really want to pinch your face to see. I feel that you might have been swapped with someone else. Someone is changing your appearance."

As if he was amused by my words, the corner of Zhou Xun's lips curved up as she slowly said: "Something happened over at Hua Lin's side, so I came back early."

I couldn't help but ask anxiously, "What happened?"

However, he seemed unwilling to say more and said, "It's not a big matter."

It's not good for me to ask.

At the same time, a servant brought him shoes and socks.

He bent over my legs and tried to dress me himself.

My expression changed drastically and I hurriedly dodged. "I …. "I'll do it myself..."

He swept his eyes over my hands with a half-smile. "You can wear it yourself?"

In fact, it was possible …

After all, he had already taken down the string, but his movements were a bit slow.

Besides, even if I can't do it myself, there are servants.

But he had already put it on me.

Except for my grandfather, who took care of me when I was young, no man had ever worn shoes and socks for me since I was a boy.

This was an unprecedented experience.

I froze, not daring to move.

But my chest was pounding.

I knew that I was completely lost, that I could not break free. I didn't want to break free either, willing to let myself sink into the depths.

After Zhou Xun finished dressing me, he stood up and stared at me for a few seconds, then lightly kissed my forehead and said: "You can go rest. I'm going to the study to take care of some matters."

He actually … Kiss me.

Even though it was just my forehead this time, it still shocked me.

I replied in a daze, but I didn't know how to react.

It wasn't until he did enter the study that I came to my senses.

I reached out and touched my forehead, as if the warmth of his lips were still there.

I couldn't help covering my face.

It was as if I had become accustomed to his intimacy before I knew it.

To my dismay, I was about to tell him about the Shen family, but he made me forget about it.

I thought about it, then knocked on the study door.

Zhou Xun placed the document in his hand on the table, and asked with a low smile. "We've only been separated for a few minutes, why are you so reluctant to part with me?"

Even though I knew he was joking, I still wasn't used to it.

I could only cough lightly and pretend that I didn't understand. "It's like this. Uncle Zhou, I have something to report to you."

He looked at me and motioned me to continue.

I replied, "Gong Shan came over in the morning to look for me for forgiveness, but I rejected him …."

I told him everything that had happened, including my suspicions about him and the Shen family's movements behind his back.

After Zhou Xun heard this, he did not seem to be surprised at all, and said: "I had thought that you would keep it a secret from me."

I looked at him sharply.

Did he already know that I was suspecting him?

That's right, although Gong Shan brought up this matter to me in the Su Family's restroom, with his abilities and methods, how could it not be monitored?

I'm afraid he was waiting for me to make a decision.

I could not help but be secretly glad that I had chosen to confess.

He lightly tapped the table with his fingers. He looked at me for a moment and said, "I'm asking you. Do you trust me?"

I was stunned and continued to consider the wording. "At the beginning, I was very shocked and I had my suspicions. After all, it involved my mother … But in fact, I never thought you'd hurt me … "

Zhou Xun smirked: "Isn't that fine?"

I glanced at him. "But you …. "It's too good for me..."

He smiled. "What, do you think I have some ulterior motive?"

I did think so, and I was a little afraid to look at him now.

He smiled and said, "That's right, I really do have a goal in getting close to you."

I stared.

He didn't continue speaking and changed the topic, "You don't have to worry about the Shen family. I will send someone to investigate, including the death of your mother. I will give you an explanation."

I said gratefully, "I'll have to trouble you … …"

He continued, "As for Su Shiyan and Gong Shan, I will also help you take revenge."

I replied, "Thank you … …"

He leaned back in his chair and smiled at me. "But this is conditional, remember?"

I pressed my lips together, unable to speak.

He chuckled. "Alright, get out, my little girlfriend."

That, and his deep voice, made me think I must be blushing now, because my heart was starting to pound again.

However, I tried my best to maintain my rationality as I whispered, "Uncle Zhou, is there anything in my hand that you like?"

He had helped me so much, I would give it to him unconditionally if he needed it, if I had it.

Zhou Xun's eyes were deep and serene, he looked at me for a moment before laughing: "Idiot, of course I approached you so that you could pretend to be my girlfriend."

I was stunned and fled in the next second.

In one breath, I ran back to the room on the second floor. I clutched my chest with both hands, but my heart was still pounding.

I knew that as long as I got close to him, I wouldn't be able to control my heart.

If he were to provoke her, he could really take her life.

But now, it was too late to say anything.

He moved closer and closer. Even though I still didn't agree to his terms, he already considered me to be a tacit agreement.

But I can't argue.

Because he's been helping me, and the only thing I can return him is a fake girlfriend.

I didn't dare to look at him all night at dinner.

Fortunately, he didn't tease me anymore. He just quietly ate his meal.

The meal was fairly peaceful.

I thought about my internship and told him.

After Zhou Xun heard this, he pondered for a moment before asking, "Become Shen Zijin's assistant?"

I sat up straight and said nervously, "I was just his assistant …"

Zhou Xun nodded, and said: "Then go."

I said hesitantly, "Really. "Can we go?"

Zhou Xun smiled as he looked at me, and said: "This is your freedom, do you think that I will keep watch over you just because you are my girlfriend? "Don't worry, you can do whatever you want. I won't stop you."

ME: "…"

In fact, I was just thinking that the Shen family seemed to be after him, so I should avoid them.

As a result, he went back to the topic of his girlfriend.

I really didn't know how to respond, so I just hummed.

However, he was still quite happy from the bottom of his heart.

It's a good thing he didn't interfere with my freedom.

Then we finished eating in silence and said good night to each other.

Fortunately, he didn't do anything strange to me this time.

I let out a long breath and hurried back to my room.
