The Rest of My Life

Zhou Xun hugged me tightly and said: "I'm afraid that even though you've decided to stay by my side, but in the future, you won't be able to take it anymore and will leave me again …" Do you know that when the flower approached, I was hesitating about whether I should bring you with me? I had thought of letting you go, but I couldn't bear to … This time, I did it on purpose to let you see it clearly … If you finally decide to leave, I'm going to let you go, too. "

My heart tightened. He was really forcing me to leave on purpose.

He paused for a moment, his fingers brushed the corners of my eyes, and he said, "When you said goodbye on the phone, I regretted it. I didn't even know what I was really thinking, so I just left Africa and went back home …" I thought a lot on the plane... I wasn't really relieved until I stopped you at the airport... "Darling, I'm afraid that you will leave me in the future, but for this worry, even if I let you go at this moment, I won't be able to do it."

My mouth dropped open in surprise as I listened to his confession.

He held my hand and said, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have tested you …" In fact, it's me who's being tested... I can't let go, so baby, don't leave me. "

My tears came again.

He never revealed his thoughts, and I couldn't tell if he was lying or not.

But even if he was lying to me, I still felt sweet.

With those words of his, even if I was beaten black and blue by him in the future, I would still accept it.

I tightly hugged his waist and cried, "I already said that I like you …" "I also said that as long as you are willing, I will always be by your side …"

Zhou Xun kissed my forehead. "But darling, didn't you just run away this time?"

I bit his mouth in grievance and grinded my teeth on his face, "I... I thought you didn't want me anymore... "I can't just keep pestering you and not let you go …"

Zhou Xun chuckled as he kissed me, then he pasted his lips against mine and said, "In the future, even if I make you angry and disappoint you, you are not allowed to leave me. Do you hear me?"

Even though my tone is overbearing, I happen to be in his debt.

We quietly embraced, enjoying the warmth after the misunderstanding melted.

As I leaned against him, I felt a kind of bitterness.

He's the only one left in my life, and I can't imagine life without him, but luckily... He didn't give up on me.

Then Zhou Xun told me about the trip to Africa.

He had planned to discuss a business deal with the mercenaries, but it was discovered later on that Zhou Ning was the one who took care of the rest.

As for the details, he didn't say anything more.

I cried and fell into a daze, and Zhou Xun coaxed me to sleep. And he came back in the middle of the night, spent hours on the plane, tired, and finally slept with me in his arms.

It wasn't until midnight that we woke up.

Aunt Ning left us some food.

As I ate, I couldn't help but glance at him, suspecting that I was dreaming.

Zhou Xun simply lifted me onto his lap and fed me.

My heart was sweet and unreal.

He smiled and pinched my nose. "Baby, if you keep looking at me like that, I'll eat you."

I understood him, of course, and my cheeks burned as I buried my head in his arms.

Actually... It's not like I don't miss him.

Especially during the month or so when I was injured, he had been holding it in, and I'm sure he hadn't gone out to get it, because he was in the hospital almost every day and had no time to look for anyone.

As for what happened after he went to Africa, I don't know.

However, a proud man like him probably didn't like to look for dirty people, not to mention that he was injured …

I rubbed his chest, somewhat regretfully.

Right now we are at the time of honey oil, I also want to satisfy him, but we are all injured, it is really inconvenient.

I moved close to his ear and stammered, "Wait …" When you recover from your injuries, I'll let you … "I told you to eat as you please …"

This caused Zhou Xun to laugh lowly, "Darling, you're too adorable."

My face was burning.

Fortunately, he didn't continue to tease me. I recalled that Shen Zixian had asked me if Zhou Xun really went to Vancouver. It seemed that he was constantly monitoring Zhou Xun's movements, or perhaps it could be said that he was very familiar with Zhou Xun's whereabouts.

I hurriedly told Zhou Xun about this matter.

Zhou Xun did not seem surprised. He said plainly, "He and Tao Zhizhou have been keeping an eye on me. They are probably keeping an eye on the mercenaries too. However, their forces are still unable to reach foreign countries. I think he is here to test you." "You did well. In the future, no matter what he asks, just pretend you don't know."

Actually, I really didn't know.

However, if I encounter such a situation again, I will know how to deal with it.

Just like that, we chatted with Zhou Xun for a while, ate some food, then fell asleep again.

When he woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky. Sunlight shone through the white gauze windows, filling the room with beauty.

Zhou Xun was smiling as he woke me up.

The warm embrace that I hadn't felt for a long time, the mint fragrance on his body intoxicated me. I couldn't help but take a deep breath, hug his neck and act like a spoiled child. "Uncle Zhou, I don't want to get up …"

Laughing lightly, he simply carried me to the bathroom, washed up slowly, and then carried me downstairs.

I saw her sitting on the sofa in the living room.

She was still wearing her professional attire, and the makeup on her face was exquisite, showing that there was nothing wrong with it.

I couldn't help but be curious. Wasn't it corporal punishment that Zhou Xun sent her to receive the punishment yesterday?

Zhou Xun directly said, "Go to the study room and wait for me."

Qin Xueman lowered her eyebrows and agreed.

It was only when she turned around that her eyes swept over me viciously.

I shivered for no reason.

I don't know why, but she gave me a more terrible feeling than Gudgeon did.

Perhaps it was because she saw my nervous expression, but the corners of her mouth curled up into a meaningful smile.

Not long after that, all of Zhou Xun's children arrived. Even Ye Nantian was wearing a military uniform. They went to the study room. Afterwards, Zhou Xun brought Zhou Ning and a few of his trusted aides into the hall.

Only Zhou An and I were left in the hall.

I looked at Zhou An and asked, "Do you regret following me?"

Zhou An shook his head and said, "It's my honor."

There was no dissatisfaction in his expression, but I felt sorry for him. Not long ago, he was Zhou Xun's trusted aide. Originally, he had the right to go to the study, but because he wanted to protect me, he could only stand outside like me.

I also finally understood the meaning behind her gaze just now.

She was mocking me. Even if I was with Zhou Xun, he still trusted her.

I couldn't help but to sigh in my heart.

Although Zhou Xun and I had solved the misunderstanding, and he had told me a few things, he did not mention the deeper secrets. I don't know what he did or what he planned to do. I don't even know what he's doing, if there's any danger...

I was curious and worried about him, but he seemed to be keeping it from me, and I didn't even dare ask.

She's been with him for four years, helping him manage his business. She'll only know him better than I do, and she'll be able to help him more.

I admit I was jealous.

It was fine as long as she could stand by Zhou Xun's side, advancing and retreating together with him … This really made me envious to the peak.

Zhou Xun and the others stayed in the study all morning. I read in the living room, but my mind was not on the book.

It was unknown what other important matter this was, but Zhou Xun wanted to gather all of his trusted aides and subordinates.

I waited, scratching my lungs, until we were almost ready for lunch, but they were still not finished.

Zhou Xun also didn't ask anyone to greet me, which made me a little depressed. I didn't know if I should call them to eat, or maybe I should just eat first.

Just as he was thinking, Zhou Ning came out.

He walked in front of me and said, "Miss Nian, Third Young Master will let you in."

I looked doubtful.

He's been ignoring me all morning. Calling me over now, it can't be to let me listen to what they have to say, right?

However, Zhou Ning had no intention of explaining. I could only look at Zhou An and let him push me to the study.

There were about a dozen people in the room. Other than Zhou Xun's five children and Qin Xueman, this was the first time I saw the rest of them. They were probably his trusted aides.

When the door opened, everyone looked at me.

Somehow, I felt a little nervous and subconsciously searched for Zhou Xun's figure.

He was sitting across from me, looking at me tenderly.

I immediately found my backbone and softly called out to him, "Uncle Zhou."

He said, "Come here."

Zhou An pushed me towards him.

He got up and picked me up. He placed me on the sofa beside him and said, "Change me."

I exclaimed and saw two medical personnel walk in with a medicine box in their hands.

Zhou Xun said, "Give it to her."

The two paramedics handed me the medicine chest and went out.

I study medicine, so naturally, I know how to treat wounds. Although there were other people in the room, I only had Zhou Xun's wound in my eyes. Ignoring everything else, I immediately pulled on Zhou Xun's clothes and carefully applied the medicine.

Zhou Xun touched my face with the back of his hand.

I looked up and smiled at him.

The corners of his mouth curled up, and I heard him say, "Continue."

These words were said to other people, and very soon, there was a discussion in the room.

I lowered my head and went on dressing him.

They seemed to be talking about Zhou Xun's trip to Africa. They seemed to have found out who had been in contact with the mercenaries back in the day, but unfortunately, they did not give out their names. And they speak in a certain language, many of which I do not understand.

I remember the mercenary leader's name is Wolf, probably a code name.

After a while, I redressed him.

They were still talking, and I wasn't in a position to interrupt them. I was just thinking about secretly calling Zhou An to help me out when Zhou Xun suddenly grabbed my hand.

I was stunned.

His eyes were elsewhere, and he wasn't looking at me, but he pulled me so hard that the heat of his palm reached me.

I thought for a moment, then sat down next to him obediently. In the blink of an eye, I saw Qin Xueman staring at my handshake with Zhou Xun.

Perhaps sensing my gaze, she squinted at me again.

I didn't intend to start a fight with her, so I smiled amiably and looked away.

As long as she doesn't provoke me, I naturally won't go against her.

Even Gu Qiong forced me to become her enemy.

However … Qin Xueman was more scheming than GuQiong, and I was actually a little scared.

Although she was occasionally hostile to me, she hid it well in front of Zhou Xun. I was always worried that she would suddenly strike me dead.

As they were lost in their thoughts, Zhou Xun and the others ended the conversation.

He said, "Let's eat together."

The kitchen had already prepared a meal, so everyone stood up and left.

Jiang JinChen walked up to him and said, "Ah Xun, there's something I want to talk to you about."

His eyes fell on me, making me look away.
