Su Jin was stunned. Zheng Lin hadn't eloped with Bai Qingchi?
Su Jin: "Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it's true. I felt so sorry for the boss. If the doctor hadn't said you were out of danger today, the boss wouldn't have left your side for even a moment. He kept turning back to look at you as he left." Assistant Gao even produced a video to prove he wasn't lying.
For those three days, he would come over to check on the boss every now and then, and each time he would see the boss. He was like a waiting-for-husband stone, and he could often see the boss talking to his wife who was still unconscious.
He was very moved, so he recorded a lot of videos.
Su Jin looked at Assistant Gao's phone.
In the video, Zheng Lin kisses her forehead at sunrise and her cheek at sunset every day.
During her brief moments of wakefulness, patiently feed her.
Su Jin was also moved after reading it.
When Zheng Lin returns, she must restrain her temper a bit.
Assistant Gao, wearing a bear apron, wiped her hands on the apron twice. "It's not just what's in the video; the boss is really good to you."
Why didn't he take you with him?
"Who?" Gao Zixin quickly realized, "Oh, the boss's flight was this morning, he should be signing the contract right now. He's used to not taking me along, and he thinks it's... a nuisance if I'm with him."
Su Jin: "..."
"He should be back tonight. The boss cried last night; his eyes were full of tears."
Assistant Gao always spoke in an exaggerated manner, and Su Jin only caught one key point: he would be back that night.
In the afternoon, Zheng Youguo made a special trip to visit Su Jin.
She immediately started scolding Zheng Lin, blaming him for everything.
"When that kid comes back, I'm going to skin him alive! He can't even take care of his own wife."
"Dad, although there are many things I haven't remembered yet, I always feel that Zheng Lin and I may not be able to go on forever."
Zheng Youguo didn't like hearing this. "Young couples are all like this, mainly because they don't have children. If you had children, you wouldn't have these thoughts. It's time to have a child. I'm not that old-fashioned. You should think about it yourself."
Upon hearing this, Su Jin's face flushed slightly.
Having a child isn't something she can decide on her own.
“You used to be very decisive, I could see that. There were feelings between you two. Marriage is all about compromise and adjustment, and there are many more days to come that you can face together.”
Perhaps it had been too long since he had seen his beloved daughter-in-law, Zheng Youguo insisted on playing Ludo with Su Jin, and the old man and the young woman spent a pleasant afternoon together.
When Zheng Lin got off the plane and returned home that evening, he saw that the living room was a mess.
Snacks, drinks, and beer were all piled up on the floor.
Among the food were Zheng Youguo and Su Jin, who were laughing and chatting happily.
A die rolled to Zheng Lin's feet, and he picked it up.
Zheng Youguo and Su Jin both looked up to find the dice.
Zheng Youguo glanced at Zheng Lin, walked over and hit him hard on the back, "You brat, you know how to come back."
"Dad, are you causing chaos in Heaven?"
Zheng Lin placed the dice on the Flying Chess board.
Zheng Youguo: "Don't interrupt. It's so late, and you're only just getting home. What about your wife? She's still sick."
“It’s a last-minute business trip. You’ve been thinking about that contract for a long time. If I don’t go, I can’t let you travel such a long distance, can I? You still haven’t learned French.” Zheng Lin said to Zheng Youguo, but his gaze was on his wife, Su Jin.
Despite the brief separation, Zheng Lin was constantly thinking about Su Jin, and as soon as he finished something good, he rushed back without stopping.
"Why can't I go?" Zheng Youguo also cared about his reputation and especially didn't want to lose face in front of his daughter-in-law. "I'll hire a translator to go with us. It's not like the Zheng family doesn't have translators. During this time, you don't need to worry about the company's affairs. Keep the law firm open if it can, and close it if it can't."
Now that his son was back, Zheng Youguo didn't want to stay any longer and wanted to give the young couple enough time alone. He beckoned to his assistant, Gao, "Xiao Gao, take me home. You two, take care of yourselves."
Before closing the door, Zheng Youguo said again, "Zheng Lin! From today onwards, the Zheng Group does not welcome you, don't..." Suddenly, he forgot how to say this internet slang.
Assistant Gao quickly added to Zheng Youguo's words: "Don't get involved."
Assistant Gao helped Zheng Youguo walk away.
Su Jin was cleaning up the trash on the ground when Zheng Lin quickly said, "Don't move it, just leave it there."
Su Jin was still angry and pretended not to hear what Zheng Lin said.
She squatted there and continued tidying up.
Zheng Lin: "......"
How can you be so disobedient?
Zheng Lin put his arm around Su Jin's waist, carried her to the sofa, and pressed down on her shoulders.
"You shouldn't overexert yourself; just sit down."
"No." Su Jin pushed away the large hand on her shoulder, her face stubborn: "Don't you only have Bai Qingchi in your heart? Why are you trying to control me?"
"Bai Qingchi's father once did me a favor. Before he died, he entrusted Bai Qingchi to me. Now that such a big thing has happened, I can't abandon her. I can't let Old Bai not rest in peace in the afterlife."
He treated Bai Qingchi so well because of the kindness shown to him by someone else's father.
It's understandable to offer assistance, but in Su Jin's eyes, it all seemed distorted.
"Did he ask you to marry Bai Qingchi, hmm? Why don't you just marry her yourself and I'll back out." Su Jin used all her strength to struggle against Zheng Lin, trying to get up from the sofa.
Zheng Lin was so angry when he heard her say that he lost his mind.
Zheng Lin lifted Su Jin's chin with his hand and sealed her lips with his.
Su Jin bit his tongue.
Zheng Lin hissed and stared at Su Jin for a long time. "You've already bitten me. If you don't think that's enough, hit me a few more times."
Su Jin wouldn't fall for such a deceptive trick.
"You said it." She grabbed Zheng Lin's finger and bit it again.
The sharp teeth were rubbed back and forth on the fingers twice.
Su Jin released her mouth, first glancing at Zheng Lin's expression, then at his finger, where a deep purple bruise had appeared.
His eyes showed no emotion, nor any hint of blame.
Instead, he reached out another hand and put it in front of her mouth, saying, "If you're not satisfied, continue."
Su Jin is neither a dog nor a vampire, and she is not addicted to biting people.
She just wanted him to feel angry, but he's not angry at all.
Does he have masochistic tendencies?
"Get away." Su Jin crawled out from under Zheng Lin's arm, pointed at the Ludo game on the ground, and said, "Let's play a game of Ludo. If you beat me, I'll agree to let Bai Qingchi be your lover. If you lose, we'll get a divorce."
Zheng Lin immediately realized that winning or losing was not good for him.
He simply kicked the Ludo chess set under the sofa.
Looking back at Su Jin's past preferences, he felt that even with amnesia, they could still be useful.
He took milk and beer from the refrigerator and put them on the table.
"Drink up." Zheng Lin opened the beer and put it aside, then poured a glass of milk for Su Jin.
Holding the iced milk, Su Jin's eyes turned cold as she looked at the bubbling beer in the distance. "What does this mean?"
“Back when we were in school, didn’t you love drinking beer the most? You would always sneak off to bars with your friends, afraid that I would run into you,” Zheng Lin said, looking at the world-famous paintings on the wall with a slight smile. “But you never knew that I had heard about it. Not only did I hear that you went there often, but I would also catch you at the bar entrance. It’s just that you were always drunk and didn’t remember ever seeing me when you woke up.”
Zheng Lin picked up his beer and took a sip. "You always say you won't get drunk, but you get drunk faster than anyone else."
Every time I recall that time, the happiness outweighs the pain.
Zheng Lin carried Su Jin on his back, walking the route back to her home countless times, and heard her utter all sorts of drunken ramblings in his ear.
Ten years ago, the Su family had just gained a foothold in the business world. Su Jin's family lived in an old building where the roads were difficult to walk on and pitch black at night, without even a street lamp.
But Zheng Lin felt that it was the most beautiful street he had ever walked.
