The two of them stood in the dark and hugged each other intimately. The man’s arm tightly secured the woman in his broad embrace. One lowered his head and the other raised her head. Their gazes met at such a close distance. Under the faint moonlight, she seemed to glimpse a flickering flame in his eyes.
“I…l’m sleepy. I’m going back to sleep.” In a moment of desperation, Su Wen pushed him away forcefully and ran into the courtyard without looking back. When she realized that there was no reaction from behind, she stopped and looked back.
She thought that she might be chased, but all she could see was a tall figure standing in the darkness.
“What are you doing?” Su Wen curiously asked, “Aren’t you afraid of getting bitten by mosquitoes?”
“It’s okay. You go to sleep first!” For some reason, Zhou Hengyang’s voice was very different from usual. It was hoarse and contained a trace of forbearance.
“Okay!”
Su Wen didn’t care about him anymore. It was more dangerous to be with him. She turned around and entered the house first. As Xu Xiaoxiao was a guest and space was limited, Su Wen arranged for her Little sister and Sixth sister to sleep with her tonight.
She vacated their room, letting Zhou Hengyang and Xu Xiaoxiao sleep there.
After everything was settled, Su Wen lay in bed. As soon as she closed her eyes, everything that had just happened and his scorching gaze would appear in her mind.
Heavens! She had grown up all these years and this was the first time her mind was utterly blank, and she felt utterly clueless.
What was worse was that she was actually subconsciously looking forward to him doing something. As for what he would do, well, adults knew.
Indeed, men were seductive. She knew that being around the male protagonist for a long time, she was bound to be influenced. Not to mention that he had no interest in women at all, his personality and methods were also not compatible with hers.
To put it bluntly, Su Wen was a pragmatic person. She didn’t have unrealistic dreams. She knew who she could subdue and who she couldn’t.
For example, Shen Erkui was the former.
Zhou Hengyang was the latter.
She wasn’t a match for him at all. With a casual tease today, she was utterly defeated. If this went on, sooner or later, she would burn herself to death!
Su Wen hugged her pillow and wailed. She forced herself to get rid of the messy thoughts in her mind. She made up her mind to chase Zhou Hengyang back to the city after she was done with the matter.
Seriously, the factories in the city were clearly doing well, but instead of properly managing them, he was running off to the countryside. In the novel, he left the Su family for a long time before returning. When he returned, the Su family was already finished.
Big brother went to Su Wen’s house as a guest. He Yulan walked around the village after dinner. She walked to the Three Trees area and unexpectedly overheard a piece of shocking news.
She was so shocked that her jaw almost fell to the ground.
“You guys…What did you guys say?” He Yulan rubbed her ears and asked with uncertainty.
“Sun Yunyun is dating an old bachelor.”
“Really?”
“Of course it’s true. Many people saw it with their own eyes. You guys didn’t see that intimate one… It’s simply shameless.”
After listening for a while, He Yulan quickly figured out the situation of what happened at the riverbank. Finally, she had to say, “You can’t judge a book by its cover. It turns out that she has taken a fancy to an old bachelor.”
“Really? Really? Really?” Chen Guihua heard about it from somewhere and ran over excitedly. She squeezed into the crowd and repeated “really” three times.
“Of course. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Wu Lili. She was there. Oh right,
Sun Yunyun’s cousin Sun Xiaocao was also there..”
