Chapter 405: Aunty, Don’t Cry, I Will Comfort You
“Joke? How are you able to say that? Look at your own behaviour right now. Other than saying “Yeah” when you are speaking with me right now, don’t you know how to say anything else? Where did you place your thoughts? You looked at someone almost falling down and you were way faster than anyone else. If you really have the ability to do so, take out the hands that you’ve placed inside your pockets. You didn’t think of helping her?”
Lu Shaoming’s bright and sparkling glow had a coldness to it. His gaze landed on the man standing beside him. He seemed to be smiling vaguely before he said, “Since you said with your own mouth that you have broken up, then break up for real. Don’t say one thing, and think of a totally different thing inside your heart. Joke? If your actions weren’t so funny, would I still be able to laugh at you?”
Zhou Dayuan drank all of the red wine in his glass in one gulp. Sure, after being friends for so many years, he was aware that Lu Shaoming was evil with his tongue.
He placed the empty wine glass onto the counter, and he looked at Lu Shaoming. “Stop laughing at me from first place. You are really too…irritating!”Zhou Dayuan lifted his heels and left.
Lu Shaoming looked at his good buddy’s back profile. He lifted his eyebrows. Feelings were between two people. He could not help much, and he hoped that Zhou Dayuan would be free soon.
…
Zhou Dayuan sat on the sofa. The senior president beside him kept speaking to him. He responded a few times, but he was bored inside his heart. He didn’t know what to say to the guy.
He scanned his peripherals. At the clean and quiet corner, Tang Fan was holding a cup in his hands and feeding Jian Han milk.
That woman did not have any spare hands because her hands were very busy. She was carrying Little Qinwen in her arms.
Little Qinwen was only nine months old. Based on standards, he was probably around 20 pounds. She used much effort to carry him. She supported him with both hands. It was strenuous, but she was extremely cautious. She was afraid that she would hurt the child if she was not being careful.Tang Fan was saying something. The woman looked at Little Qinwen as she smiled. Little Qinwen really liked her a lot. He could not stop using his tiny lips to nudge her face and give her multiple kisses.
The three of them looked extremely harmonious.
He already had not seen her for six days. Ning Qing had called him. She had said that Jian Han’s house did not have any rice and vegetables. He did not find it weird— she was always like that. She did not know how to take care of herself in her own personal life.
Ning Qing asked him to come over.
How could he go?
In the bar, she asked him to get lost.
It was also not her that made the call. Ning Qing’s the one who called him. What use did it have?
He would not take the initiative to come to her door and would not gift himself to her again to allow her to ruin him.
When he first saw her today, she was bent over as she smiled at Little Qinwen. Ning Qing said that she was living in a mess. It was probably an exaggeration. He looked at her bright smile. She seemed to be doing fine.
Eight years ago, she left him without a single word, and she managed her own life very well.
She was always like that — without a heart or a conscience.
There were some moments. He really wanted to dig her heart out to have a close look.
Even though it was so, no matter how much he was angry at her, no matter how much he hated her, no matter how many grievances he had towards her, when he saw her falling backward bringing Little Qinwen along with her, his first reaction was to help her up; it was the instinct of his body.
Lu Shaoming was right. Ever since he has entered this large hall, he’s known that she was around. No matter how cold he pretended to be, his heart was still attracted to her.
He was really too pathetic.
He was alone and single, watching laughing softly in another man’s embrace.
Zhou Dayuan had a mouthful of red wine in his hands. He lifted his hand again to guzzle more wine. The senior president beside him saw him drinking so excessively and asked, “Young Master Zhou, what is wrong with you today? This is a perfect chance. I have brought my daughter Xiao Wan. I should introduce her to Young Master Zhou. I will let her to accompany you to chat for a moment. You youngsters should get along.”
Zhou Dayuan lifted his gaze to have a look. There was a young girl walking beside the senior president. She wore a green dress. Her back was slightly exposed behind the thin muslin. Her attractive figure was very exposed. She had a hot figure and a beautiful face.
Zhou Dayuan laughed coldly inside his heart. Yet again, someone wanted to set him up on a blind date.
He would not marry.
If he wanted to marry, he would also marry someone exactly the same as her, with a cold exterior, hot at night, a small villain that could match his energy.
Zhou Dayuan leaned lazily in the sofa. In his perpheral vision, he took another look. Tang Fan was asked to socialize by someone. Little Qinwen ate the only small cherry left on the plate. That woman bent her waist down and listened to Little Qinwen speak.
He saw Little Qinwen use his small finger to point towards his direction. Zhou Dayuan laughed lightly. There was a plate of cherries beside his hand.
Little Qinwen wanted to eat and dispatched her to come to get it.
Would she come or not?
It was obvious that the woman was hesitating. She was unwilling, but Little Qinwen was kicking up a fuss, and his temper was coming out.
That small fella was the same as his father. The people that treated him well, he would know to make use of them in a moment.
Why did that woman treat him so well? It was a given that she would get bullied.
As expected, that woman nodded her head with much difficulty.
She came.
…
Jian Han was unable to convince Little Qinwen. She walked towards Zhou Dayuan. She told herself not to be nervous, and to just treat him like a stranger inside her heart.
But she was unable to control her accelerating heartbeat. She lifted her hand up to tuck the strands of hair behind her ear, and it was only then that she realized her earlobes were burning hot.
That man was lazily lying back on the sofa. He looked sideways and was talking to a young girl beside him. He laughed softly, and she could hear his sexy voice.
He crossed his legs, and his legs were really long. He wore a pair of black handmade leather shoes. He had a pair of dark blue cotton socks. The socks exposed his thin, exquisite ankles — extremely pretty.
She did not know what he was saying, and that girl gurgled in crisp laughter.
She was like an alien intruding. She stood by his left side, but the cherries were in his right hand; she was unable to reach them.
It was only when she approached him closer that she found out that he was complimenting that girl. “The daughter of President Wan is really beautiful. You just came back from studying overseas?”
That senior president nodded his head immediately. His interest in Zhou Dayuan was written all over his face as he said, “My daughter is a PhD Graduate.”
Jian Han was awkward. She felt her entire body turn into a wooden stick. She did not know what to do. She looked at the back of her head that was clean and neat. She tugged her skirt with both hands and gently said, “Pardon…please let me pass.”
This sound successfully interrupted the trio conversing with one another. The man turned his head and looked at her.
There was warmth on his face, but he was also polite. “Oh, Miss Jian, what do you want?”
Jian Han glanced at him. The lines on the man’s face were like flowing water. He was handsome and powerful. She turned her gaze sideways, and pointed towards the plate of cherries. “That. Can you give me that?”
The senior president heard her request and was delighted. “It turns out that this young lady here wants the plate of cherries. Young Master Zhou, you should pass the plate over to this young lady.”
After he finished speaking, she did not see the man beside her move at all. The senior president froze and finally felt the abnormality between the two people.
Zhou Dayuan shook the glass of red wine in his right hand. The red liquid crashed against the glass and reflected a mesmerizing glow. The man’s handsome face had a chill to it. “You want it? Take it yourself.”
Jian Han was embarrassed. She saw that his attitude was firm, so she slowly bent her waist and stretched her hand out to take it.
She bent her waist, and the material of the light pink dress on her body fell onto the side of his black trousers. It was only when he looked now, that he realized that she was wearing light-pink. She rarely wore such bright colours. The style of the dress was extremely feminine. The crystal adorned collar was on her soft and gentle neck, and it exposed her slim arms.
Her hair was up in an updo. The loose strands gave her a different flavour. The dress was not tight on the waist, but it was Korean style, with a strapless design. She bent her waist down, and his gaze fell on her arc.
Only he knew about his own hurried breathing.
Jian Han’s small hand went to take the plate of cherries. It was a little difficult, and she tried hard not to touch him, not to smell the clean and mesmerizing scent on his body. She got close, and took the plate of cherries.
She just wanted the plate of cherries.
But at this moment, a large hand pressed against her small hand, and the plate of cherries.
She froze, and there was a masculine scent that neared her suddenly. The man bent down by her ear and said, “You like to eat cherries? Aren’t cherries what men like?”
The red on Jian Han’s earlobes subsided, and she understood the meaning behind his words.
“Try to say it, who ate you before? Me alone? Or was there also someone else?”
Jian Han’s body trembled. He was insulting her. The senior president was close by. Although he lowered his volume, it was still easy for others to hear what he was saying.
She did not lift her head up, but she could already feel the weird gazes cast on her.
She wanted to take her hand back. She did not want the plate of cherries anymore, and she only wanted to leave this evil man who bullied her.
But she was unable to do so. Those cold words were like an evil spell that continued on. “How come you are not saying anything? If you do not speak, then be like this with me. Waste more time with me. Don’t even think of leaving.”
Jian Han was bullied to this extent. Her small hands that had nothing to do were held tightly into fists. She bit her lower lip to stop herself from shedding any tears.
Her voice was extremely insulting as it did not seem like her own. “…Only you alone.”
Zhou Dayuan moved his Adam’s apple. He moved the tip of his nose, and took a breath of the fragrance on her body, and it was only then that he let go.
The woman escaped. She hugged the plate of cherries and ran as if she were running for her life.
…
Jian Han ran back to Little Qinwen’s side. She bent her body down. There was a huge smile on her face, and she handed the plate of cherries over to Little Qinwen. “Eat them.”
Little Qin Wen said “Ha.” He took one in the centre of his palm and ate in satisfaction.
But he ate one and realized that this aunty who had been smiling at him was crying. Those tears emerged like water from a cloud, and they dampened her face immediately.
Little Qinwen threw the cherry in his hands away, he hugged Jian Han’s neck. He used both of his tiny hands to frantically wipe her tears away. “Aunt….don’t cry… Hoo hoo…”
Zhou Dayuan’s eyes were dyed red. He stared at that lithe figure bending down a distance away. That figure was weak and hesitant, and it put him in absolute pain.
He was being evil.
He did not bother with any of that refined education he was brought up with. He was so shameless that he did not even recognize himself anymore.
She was crying?
He knew that she was crying. He also felt weird. That woman actually cried after being bullied by him. How much more did she want to bully him? He was just a distraction.
He would not regret it.
Never!
At this moment, the senior president beside him was laughing awkwardly. He did not hear anything specific, but both of them had a vague feeling of romance that even a fool could feel. “Young Master Zhou, you and that young lady just now?”
Zhou Dayuan lifted his gaze. He looked at that young girl smiling, “Do you have a PhD? Is that of any use? Wait for the day that you are just like her. Just by saying something, she has the ability to make me take her to bed. We can talk about dating then.”
“You!” The young girl had an extreme change in expression.
That senior president also stood up suddenly. “Young Master Zhou, you!” He dragged his own daughter as they turned around to leave.
…
After seeing the pair of father and daughter leave, Zhou Dayuan did not even keep his head up. The man was proud to his core, and he felt that he would never place anyone inside his heart other that woman.
He lifted his head to drink the remaining half glass of red wine. He placed the wine glass down, and turned his gaze sideways to look.
This glance made him stand up suddenly. Jian Han disappeared.
He looked for a moment, Little Qinwen was already in Lu Shaoming’s hands. There was no sight of her in the large hall. Where did she go?
Zhou Dayuan ran towards the exit.
He was running too hurriedly. He crashed into an attendant, the attendant spilled the wine on the tray onto his body. “Young Master, I am sorry, I will help you to wipe it.”
The attendant wanted to wipe him off, but that man ran off instead, extremely hurriedly and frantically.
