At the beginning, when Tonghua agreed to a flash marriage with Qin Zun, they had no feelings for each other. But later, as they spent time together bit by bit, day and night, Qin Zun tried to share the housework with her and care about her, and gradually she began to like him.

But later, because she noticed that Qin Zun seemed to be having an affair with other women outside, and more than once, and her feelings for Qin Zun were not deep at that time, she immediately cut off her secret love for him and sealed her heart and locked away her love.

She treated Qin Zun as a financial sponsor who provided money and household expenses, while she was responsible for the household chores and three meals a day for both parties.

Although this was the first time in more than 20 years that her secret crush on someone ended in vain.

But she felt that her feelings for the other party were not deep, and she was able to get away in time and cut off this relationship.

But now that she heard him say with her own ears that he liked her, her heart began to panic again.

Tonghua kept walking back and forth in the bathroom, trying to convince herself.

Maybe he was just joking when he said he liked her. After all, it was not impossible in that situation.

But Qin Zun's personality is not the kind of person who likes to joke, let alone say such things.

Tonghua kept walking back and forth in the bathroom, two different ideas kept fighting in her mind.

How about asking Qin Zun now, what does he mean by "I like you"?

But the incident has already happened. If I go down to ask him now, it will seem like I care a lot. What if he is really just joking? I will be so embarrassed!

I should think carefully about why things turned out like this. First of all, he took me to the food street without asking why.

Then he proposed to take her to visit her alma mater, and then he mentioned Senior Mu, and then...

But what does taking her to the food court and her alma mater have to do with Senior Mu?

Oh, she remembered that Senior Mu had taken her to do these two things a while ago, so Qin Zun was becoming competitive and wanted to surpass Senior Mu?

So, does he really like...

No, no, no, Tonghua shook her head. Doesn’t Qin Zun have someone he likes?

A woman he kept outside.

This news almost hurt Tonghua's heart. She seemed to really feel a little pain in her heart. Tonghua covered her chest tightly, gasping for breath as if she couldn't breathe.

At this time, Qin Zun knocked on the door: "Tonghua, are you in there? Can you come out for a moment? I want to talk to you."

Tonghua took a deep breath and replied after a while, "I'm feeling a little uncomfortable right now. Let's talk about it another day."

Qin Zun said nervously, "You were fine just now, why are you suddenly feeling unwell? Did you eat something unclean? Let me take you to the hospital!"

Qin Zun felt a little annoyed. He shouldn't have let her eat those things, but she looked so happy at the time that he couldn't bear to spoil her fun.

Tonghua squatted on the ground and said, "There's no need to go to the hospital. I just ate too much and my stomach feels uncomfortable. I'll be fine after digesting it."

Qin Zun: "If you feel unwell, you must tell me and I will stay with you."

She really didn't want to see him now. She was afraid that once she saw him, she would feel resentment and couldn't help but ask him: "You said you like me, then what about that woman? What about her?"

She was afraid of seeing the other party tell her with disdain that she had no right to ask her that and that they were not a real couple at all.

She needs some time to calm down.

Listening to the quiet sounds outside the door, Tonghua must have left. Looking at herself in the mirror with red eyes, she used all her strength to give a wry smile.

The next morning, Tonghua made breakfast and left home early to go to the company.

She was a little afraid of seeing Qin Zun now. Although she had calmed down on the surface, she was really afraid that once she saw him, her disguise would collapse in an instant and her emotions would get out of control.

I looked so ugly like that, hysterical like a nagging woman.

She decided to avoid Qin Zun for a few days and calm down to think about what she should do next.

Just then, she received a call from her younger brother Tong Zhengyuan.

Tong Zhengyuan: "Sister, how have you been lately?"

Fairy Tale: "What's up?"

Tonghua has complicated feelings towards her half-brother. When they were young, her relationship with Tong Zhengyuan was no different from that of other biological siblings. Both children were innocent and could play together.

Even if stepmother Zhang Guiying treats Tonghua badly, Tong Zhengyuan will stand up to protect her sister.

But later, as time went by, because of Zhang Guiying's relationship with them, she couldn't stand the good relationship between the two siblings.

Once she sees Tong Zhengyuan contacting Tong Hua, she will scold him, saying that Tong Hua is just an outsider and not worthy of Tong Zhengyuan's kindness to her.

The relationship between Tong Hua and Tong Zhengyuan also began to become distant.

Zhang Guiying was not nice to Tonghua and even tried to get the marriage gift from her, which made Tonghua have no good feelings towards her stepmother.

But whenever Tong Zhengyuan saw Zhang Guiying treating Tonghua badly, he would stand up to help Tonghua like his own brother.

Now Tonghua really doesn't know how to face him.

Tong Zhengyuan: "During this period, Xinyue's family has also agreed to our marriage. Now they are planning to hold an engagement party, and they need both families to come together. I hope you can come."

"It's an engagement party, right? You and your parents can go then. I won't go. I still have work to do."

Tong Hua was about to hang up the phone, but Tong Zhengyuan continued, "Sister, are you still blaming me?"

It was because of his marriage that Zhang Guiying wanted to sell Tonghua to someone else as a wife. It was impossible for her not to feel resentment.

But Tonghua knew that this was not his intention. Tong Zhengyuan was not at home at the time and had no idea about this. By the time he found out, it had been a long time since the incident.

Tonghua sighed: "It's been so long now, there's no need to talk about it anymore. Now you should just get married with peace of mind."

Tonghua has really done her best for her younger brother. Their family has not saved any money over the years. If it weren't for the sibling bond they had in their childhood, Tonghua would not have cared about this matter at all.
