The Rest of My Life

I really have nothing to be fooled by him.

In terms of the money he tricked me with, my grandfather's small fortune couldn't even compare to the things he gave me in the contract.

If you were talking about how gullible I am, it doesn't seem possible. After all... With his status, he will definitely find someone younger and prettier than me, and someone with a better family background than me …

After a moment of silence, I met his gaze and asked, "Are you serious?"

Are you serious about me?

I didn't ask, but Zhou Xun probably understood what I meant.

He pinched my face and said with a smile, "Recite. You can trust me more."

So he still didn't answer my question directly.

I was disappointed.

But I also know that if he doesn't want to talk, no one can make him say another word.

I smiled wryly to myself and tried to comfort myself. He didn't treat me as a plaything.

As for whether he liked me or not, his attitude told me everything.

Therefore, I better not hold on to my hopes in the future, lest I get even more disappointed.

Just like this, two days later, we set out for the imperial capital.

At this time, Su Yan had already been imprisoned. He only needed to wait for the verdict and he would be in prison for the next ten years.

Gong Shan fled to the countryside. Zhou Ning had someone watch her closely. If there was any movement, they would know immediately.

My grandfather's company still intends to sell it, and Zhou Xun has already asked someone to help him count the accounts.

Before I left, I went to pay my respects to my mother.

I told her about Su Yan being captured.

I don't know if she'll blame me under the ground.

She loves Su Yan so much that she has no bottom line. Maybe she thinks that it is too unreasonable of me to send Su Yan to jail.

But anyway, I did what I had to do.

I looked at the picture of my mother's smiling face on the tombstone and said softly in my heart, "Mom, if you... "There's another reason for me to jump off the building. Can you give me a hint …"

No one answered, only the hot wind blowing from the forest.

When I came down, Zhou Xun's car was waiting for me by the roadside.

He rolled down the window, revealing his handsome, unearthly face.

I smiled at him.

The next morning, we left the flower garden.

When the plane arrived at the imperial capital, it was just before noon.

As we drove to the east side of the city, I sat in the car and watched the familiar sights on both sides of the street.

It had been almost three months since he stepped into the city.

Previously, I came here to study, but I was alone in the capital. Now, I have Zhou Xun by my side.

Although his future was uncertain, he still had something to rely on.

The car drove for about forty minutes before it stopped in front of a villa in the suburbs.

I heard from Li Jun that some of the old aristocratic families in the capital are in the urban areas and not in the outskirts of the city.

This should not be the Zhou Mansion.

Furthermore, from the outside, the villa looked rather new as well. It seemed to be Zhou Xun's own residence.

As soon as he got out of the car, a wave of heat hit him.

It was the middle of summer and the weather was hot. However, compared to the approaching flowers, the temperature here was slightly lower. It was also relatively dry and not that hot.

Zhou Xun grabbed my hand and said, "Let's go in and take a look."

As I walked through the door, I realized that the decorating style was exactly the same as the one before the flower. There was almost no difference, and this made me feel as if the flower was about to bloom.

What surprised me even more was that Aunt Ning and the two girls who took care of me were both in the house.

Seeing my dumbstruck expression, Zhou Xun smiled and explained, "You like spicy dishes, so the dishes that Aunt Ning cooks are more suitable for your taste. So I brought Aunt Ning along with me." I saw that you were quite satisfied with Xiao Dong and Xiao Xiao, so you brought it along as well. "

Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, was a little taciturn, but she was very bright. They were about the same age as me, so I usually chatted with them when I had nothing to do.

I did not expect Zhou Xun to notice these details.

However, all his emotions eventually turned into feelings of gratitude.

I smiled and muttered, "Uncle Zhou, thank you …"

Zhou Xun touched my face with his warm palm, chuckled, and continued leading me upstairs.

The layout and decorations of the second floor were also similar to that of the flowerbed.

He stopped in front of a house and said, "We live here."

I knew it was the master bedroom, and the master bedroom over there was also in the same position.

He pushed the door open.

The interior layout was indeed similar.

I stood at the door without moving and stammered, "I …" We... Live together? "

When Zhou Xun heard this, he looked deeply at me and said, "Could it be that you want to sleep in another room with me?"

My eyes widened, and my cheeks were burning. "But …"

Isn't it normal to sleep in separate rooms?

Even though in the days before the flower, we shared the same bed.

Available... I thought that since he came to the capital, he would keep his distance from me …

I couldn't speak.

Zhou smiled slightly and stopped talking about it. Instead, he led me to the balcony.

Outside was a wide courtyard. Perhaps it was because it was in the suburbs, but the greening was very good. Above the yard was a small hill, and the forest was very dense.

Zhou Xun pointed to a patch of forest on the left. "Do you like it?"

I was stunned.

He then took a closer look and realized that it was actually an orange tree.

I was so shocked I couldn't believe it.

Zhou Xun gently hugged me from behind and said, "I had my people transfer the fruits over. I just don't know if they can be eaten."

After all, the climate in the north was different from that in the south. Even if they bore fruits, they might not be able to eat them.

However, this thought of his is sufficient to make my heart tremble.

My nose slowly became sore. After a long time, I finally squeezed out the words from my throat. "Uncle Zhou, thank you for doing all this for me …"

Zhou Xun pulled my body to face him.

He gently rubbed the corner of my eyes with his finger and gently said, "We'll stay here for a few days. Grandfather's health isn't too good. Let's just wait for the birthday feast before we go see him."

After hearing that Grandpa Zhou was sick, of course I immediately agreed.

Zhou Xun smiled and said, "It's almost summer vacation now. You might as well rest for a few more months, before returning to school in the second half of the year."

I didn't expect him to even think about me going to school.

To be honest, I was originally very nervous about this trip to the capital.

But from the moment I entered, the villa's renovation, the arrival of Aunt Ning and Little Dong, as well as Zhou Xun's intentions, all made me feel at ease.

I gradually calmed down.

No matter what kind of suffering or trouble I'll encounter in the future, as long as I think of Zhou Xun's intentions, I think I can persevere on.

Since I was a bit tired from flying, I went to take a nap after lunch.

Zhou Xun went to his study to take care of some matters.

When I woke up, it was already 3 in the afternoon.

I'm going downstairs to find Zhou Xun.

However, just as he reached the staircase, he heard an exaggerated male voice coming from the hall, "Ah Xun, are you trying to hide your talent?"

I looked over and saw that it was Jiang Jingchen.

Beside him was Ye Nantian and opposite him was Zhou Xun.

I couldn't tell if Jiang Jingchen was joking or questioning him.

Zhou Xun did not reply.

Jiang Jingchen's voice rose loudly, "Are you serious? "Then what about Bei Bei!"

I was about to go down and greet them, but I pulled my foot back.

North-North... Who is it?

I remembered that Shen Zixian said that Zhou Xun had a new appointment.

So Bei Bei was the person Zhou Xun liked?

The hall fell silent.

After about three minutes, or perhaps four minutes, Jiang JinChen spoke again, "Ah Xun, just tell me. Are you in love with that girl upstairs?"
