Although living at my grandma's house is very happy, it's not like living with my parents.
Her grandmother taught her a lot of truth - a person's emotions should not be exposed. Once others guess you, it will be easy to control you.
Li Jing also understands this truth, and he can control Li Huzhu.
Li Huzhu already knows very well when to cry, when to laugh, when to be kind and powerful, and when to be pitiful.
However, she had never used these methods against Zhou Mulian.
When she met him, she was as sincere as a child, giving him all her joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, being passionate and devoted to him, and also taking things from him.
That was her best time.
It has never happened before, and it will never happen again.
Now we see each other again, but we have to exercise restraint at all times. Li Huzhu held back the tears all night and burst out of her eyes at this moment.
There was no resentment in her heart, but she was just bitter and unbearable.
“…Without the ring on my hand, I couldn’t sleep all night, and I had nightmares even when I barely fell asleep.
Later, I went to buy one myself and didn’t take it off until I returned to China.”
she said.
Zhou Mulian watched her burst into tears and said in a daze: "Hu Zhu, don't cry, I..."
He reached out and hugged her.
One of Li Huzhu's feet was still in the cold water basin. He hugged her tightly, her posture was weird and twisted.
She wanted to cry loudly, but her remaining sense told her not to do this.
Don't burden him.
His fiancée would be so sad if she found out.
"Mu Lian, why doesn't your fiancée come back with you?"
she asked chokingly.
Zhou Mulian didn't hear this sentence clearly, he only heard her say the word "fiancée".
He let go of his hand: "What?"
"Your fiancée."
Every word she said felt like a knife was cut in her heart, "Why did she stay alone in the United States?
how did you guys meet?"
Zhou Mulian: "What fiancée?"
"Aren't you engaged?"
Li Huzhu knew him best and knew that he was not lying, so her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Tears condensed on her eyelashes and fell in a blink of an eye.
Zhou Mulian was stunned and reached out to wipe her tears: "Who told you?
I'm not engaged, I haven't even had a girlfriend, I'm too busy."
Li Huzhu: "..."
Zhou Mulian retracted his hand with a cautious expression: "I didn't lie, Hu Zhu.
You know me, I'm not that kind of person."
"I know."
Li Huzhu said, "It's just...my brother said..."
Zhou Mulian: "..."
He did not sow discord between Li Huzhu and Li Jing.
If he still has a chance to be with Li Huzhu, Li Jing will be his uncle.
At this level of relationship, we are not going to stay away from each other forever, we still have to keep a thin line.
Besides, Li Jing didn't look down on him for just a day or two.
From the time he fell in love with Li Huzhu to the time they broke up, Li Jing reminded Zhou Mulian every moment: He had favored Li Huzhu, he was not worthy, and he should get out of his own way.
In order to prevent Li Huzhu from finding Zhou Mulian after graduation, she fabricated lies and even fabricated evidence, like what Li Jing could do.
"There may be some misunderstanding."
Zhou Mulian said, "I have never been engaged."
Li Huzhu hummed.
Zhou Mulian didn't know if it was appropriate to say the following words now.
At this time, there was a knock on the door of his apartment.
The mood was suddenly interrupted.
The knock on the door was urgent. Zhou Mulian was slightly surprised, but at the same time he was wary, worried that it was the Nanjing Zhou family's revenge. He immediately took out his pistol from the drawer of the coffee table, opened the safety, and loaded the bullet.
Li Huzhu thought of the last time he lost his hand, and understood where his wariness came from. She was very nervous for a moment, and asked him quietly: "Who is he?"
Zhou Mulian signaled her to be quiet, and deliberately stepped forward: "Who?"
There was a quick response from outside the door: "It's me."
