Chapter 70 I'm waiting for you to tell me your secret.

Zhou Songyan sat in the restaurant in silence for a while, not in the mood to eat.

I drove to Heyun Residential Area.

When Grandma Zhou returned to the Zhou family's old house, Zhou Jingtian had already returned.

"Mom, what are you holding in your hand?"

Grandma Zhou stuffed the photo into her pocket: "It's nothing."

After saying that, Grandma Zhou went back to her room.

Zhou Jingtian muttered to himself behind him, "So mysterious, what are they hiding?"

Grandma Zhou carefully put away her great-grandson's photo before coming out to eat.

Zhou Jingtian glanced at the old lady who hadn't touched her chopsticks much.

"Mom, what's wrong? You don't have a good appetite."

Grandma Zhou put down her chopsticks: "You eat, I can't eat anymore."

She was very happy and excited to learn that she had a four-year-old great-grandson.

But thinking about the hardships her great-grandson and Li Mai had endured over the years, and the fact that she couldn't reunite with her great-grandson now, she felt so distressed that she couldn't eat.

Zhou Jingtian put down his chopsticks with concern: "Mom, tell me where you feel unwell, and I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup."

Grandma Zhou glanced at him and waved her hand, saying, "I'm not feeling unwell."

"You eat, I'm going back to my room."

Zhou Jingtian sensed something was wrong, but the old lady said she wasn't feeling unwell, so he didn't pay much attention to it for the time being.

...

Li Mai and Chengcheng finished eating outside.

There happens to be a boxing gym in the mall.

Chengcheng previously said he wanted to learn boxing.

Li Mai let her experience a class.

The little guy was covered in sweat.

The mother and son stepped out of the elevator and saw Zhou Songyan standing at their door.

His tall, slender figure leaned against the wall, exuding a languid yet noble air.

He looked over when he heard the elevator doors open.

His gaze locked precisely on Li Mai.

"Where have you been?"

Li Mai whispered, "I took Chengcheng out to eat."

As Li Mai spoke, she went over to open the door.

Chengcheng ran in to take a shower first.

Zhou Songyan entered the room and hugged Li Mai from behind.

Li Mai stiffened and whispered, "Zhou Songyan, let me go."

"Li Mai, I haven't eaten yet."

Zhou Songyan's tone was pitiful, like a puppy.

Li Mai hates her own soft heart.

Zhou Songyan said he hadn't eaten, so she happily went into the kitchen to cook noodles for him and even fried two eggs for him.

A steaming bowl of vegetable and egg noodles, wafting with aroma, was served.

Zhou Songyan had a great appetite.

Having grown accustomed to delicacies, he found the noodles made with quinoa to be extremely delicious.

The noodles warmed my stomach, which felt very comforting.

Li Mai made him some noodles and then went into the room.

She still had some work to finish, and she was working on her laptop in her room.

After taking a shower, Chengcheng sat down opposite Zhou Songyan, propped his head up with his hand, and asked, "Does it smell good?"

Zhou Songyan looked up: "It smells good."

"My aunt is doing well, please don't make her sad."

Zhou Songyan paused for a moment, then reached out and ruffled Chengcheng's hair: "I know."

After finishing the noodles, Zhou Songyan washed the dishes herself.

Li Mai hadn't come out yet, so he went and knocked on the door.

“Li Mai”.

Five seconds later, Li Mai opened the door, her fair face showing indifference: "Go now that you've finished eating."

Zhou Songyan slipped into the room and closed the door behind her.

"Zhou Songyan, what are you trying to do?"

Li Mai cried out in surprise.

"Shh! Keep your voice down, or Chengcheng will hear you."

"Don't be nervous, I'm not doing anything, I just want to take a look around your room."

"go out!"

Li Mai pushed him.

But despite her great efforts, Li Mai couldn't budge Zhou Songyan in the slightest.

Instead, Zhou Songyan hooked his hand and pulled him into his arms.

A deluge of kisses rained down upon them.

It seared Li Mai's nerves, making her forget to breathe, forget to resist, forget time.

So many nights.

She dreamt of being entangled with Zhou Songyan.

Upon waking, all that remained was endless emptiness and desolation.

In a confined space, ambiguity can cause people to lose their reason.

Li Mai was immersed in Zhou Songyan's passionate kiss.

To her, Zhou Songyan was like opium, something that would make her addicted once she touched him.

Her longing was too deep.

Her obsession was too strong.

They can't resist being provoked.

“Li Mai…”

A murmur brought Li Mai back to her senses.

She awkwardly pushed Zhou Songyan away.

In the quiet room, both of them were breathing somewhat unsteadily.

Zhou Songyan was still savoring the sweet taste she had just experienced.

It made him unable to stop, and he was on the verge of losing control.

Li Mai turned her back and said softly, "Zhou Songyan, please don't do this to me, okay?"

We've all broken up.

"That's not good."

"I don't want to be like this with you."

Li Mai's voice carried a hint of pleading.

Because she really couldn't do anything about Zhou Songyan.

A burning hot body pressed against my back.

Li Mai trembled all over, then was pulled into a warm embrace.

Zhou Songyan bent down slightly and rested his head on her shoulder.

"Li Mai, shall we merge?"

I want to be with you like we used to be.

"I want to kiss you, I want to hug you, I want to do all the intimate things with you."

"Zhou Songyan, stop talking."

“I’m going to tell you. How would you know if I didn’t?”

I don't want to know.

“I have to let you know.”

"Zhou Songyan, you're being a scoundrel. What's the point of you pestering me like this?"

“That’s interesting. At least I kissed you tonight and you didn’t reject me. That’s progress.”

Li Mai: "..."

It's her problem.

She kept saying she wanted to keep her distance from Zhou Songyan.

But she was powerless to resist Zhou Songyan's approach.

“Li Mai, you have feelings for me, don’t resist.”

Li Mai pushed him away and ran to stand by the window, as if that would help her clear her head.

"So what? Zhou Songyan, you're the heir of Beijing's elite circles, and you're handsome too. There aren't many people who aren't tempted by you."

"I'm just an ordinary person, it's normal for me to be tempted. But I know my place, there's no way we can be together."

"Yes, I once wanted to marry a rich man. You are rich, but you are too rich. I can't handle someone like you."

"So, can you please let me go?"

Zhou Songyan looked at her intently: "Are you done?"

Li Mai: "Mm."

Zhou Songyan approached, pinched her chin, and forced her to look up at him.

“Li Mai, I’ve already told you, this time I’m in charge.”

"I don't care what you're afraid of, or what secrets you're hiding from me, I will never let go."

The pressure from her fingers increased, and Li Mai cried out in pain, "Let go of me!"

Zhou Songyan released her hand but hugged her tighter, whispering in her ear, "I'm waiting for you to tell me your secret on your own."

...

When Zhou Songyan left, he saw the bag by the door that was clearly untouched, and his eyes darkened.

Li Mai didn't go out; she let out a sigh of relief when she heard the door close.

He turned around, closed the computer, grabbed his clothes, and went to take a shower.

Just as Zhou Songyan was about to start the car, his phone rang.

He looked at the name displayed on the screen and hung up immediately.

Not long after, the other party sent another message.

Zhou Songyan deleted it without even looking at it.

Guan Qing almost smashed her phone to pieces.

Zhou Songyan used to be quite patient with her; he would answer her calls and reply to her messages.

Since she confessed her feelings, Zhou Songyan has been very cold towards her and doesn't pay much attention to her.

After the last incident, Zhou Songyan completely ignored her.

She sent the information that Li Mai had a son.

I don't know if Zhou Songyan has seen it.
