54 Blacklisted!

Zhou Jingbai was forced to stay in the old house and was strictly forbidden to leave.

He didn't get a chance to go out for a while. He thought it was just a joke, but Zhou's mother actually had someone watch him and not let him go out, and also didn't let him handle work at home. After half

a month, he was finally released, but Zhou's mother's idea of ​​trying to get an answer during this time was unsuccessful.

The first thing Zhou Jingbai did after leaving the old house was not to go home but to go to the group. He didn't touch his mobile phone or computer much these days, and of course he didn't know the situation at the group.

After going back to deal with some trivial matters, it was already afternoon before he knew it. He stood in front of the French window and stared at the sun that was about to set outside.

"Mr. Zhou? The document you just said you wanted." His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the door.

It was already evening when he left the group. The high-rise buildings outside were brightly lit. After getting in the car, he drove towards home.

But when passing a street, he suddenly stopped. He stared at a direction intently, as if he was very concerned about something.

Following his gaze, he saw two people standing on the roadside, each holding a marshmallow in their hands. Their backs looked very sweet, and with the smiles on their faces when they turned around, they looked like a perfect couple.

Wen Zihuan looked at the marshmallow in his hand that was beginning to melt and quickly sped up. In addition, the wind was a bit strong today, and the marshmallow in his hand was already shaking and about to fall.

Lu Zhou on the side was even more flustered. He looked at the marshmallow and didn't know how to eat it for a while. He had never eaten this before.

Today, on the way home from work, when I was picking up Wen Zihuan, he suddenly saw marshmallows being sold on the roadside and said he wanted to eat some. I originally bought one for him, but he insisted on buying two.

Then the two of them were waving marshmallows in the wind, looking a little funny.

However, Zhou Jingbai saw more sweetness. He looked at the two figures for a long time without moving, as if he had been in another world.

Lu Zhou ate a small half of the last marshmallow and most of it melted, with some on his hands and cheeks.

Wen Zihuan couldn't help laughing when he saw him like this, and quickly took out a tissue to help him wipe it, "How come you ate it everywhere."

Lu Zhou stood still and let him wipe it. Wen Zihuan suddenly stopped halfway through, "You... wipe it yourself." After stuffing the tissue into his hand, he took his hand back.

If it weren't for the dim light in the evening, one would have definitely seen the tips of his ears turning pink.

The two got in the car after finishing their meal. Wen Zihuan hadn't spoken since getting in the car. Thinking about the moment when he helped Lu Zhou wipe his face and their eyes met, his cheeks began to feel hot.

He didn't know what was wrong. Generally speaking, his reaction should be called shyness? He

was thinking halfway when a hand suddenly reached out and touched his forehead, "Why do I feel a little feverish? Did you get sick from the cold just now? I remember there's a hospital nearby. Let me take you there."

"No, I'm fine." Wen Zihuan spoke quickly, but he didn't know how to explain why his face was so hot.

Later, he had to talk a lot to prevent Lu Zhou from sending him to the hospital.

After arriving home, he noticed that there was food on the table. "Didn't you have dinner? Why did you ask someone to cook?" He couldn't help but wonder.

"I saw that you didn't eat much, so I asked them to make some midnight snack." Lu Zhou said as he took off his suit jacket.

Although he had eaten dinner, he still sat down and ate a little. Wen Zihuan felt warm in his heart when he saw the table full of his favorite food.

Speaking of which, he didn't seem to deliberately mention what he liked to eat, but after living together for such a long time, Lu Zhou seemed to have completely figured it out.

Apart from his parents, this was the first time in all these years that he felt completely cared for and paid attention to.

"What's wrong? Is it not delicious?" Lu Zhou couldn't help asking when he saw his chopsticks suddenly stop.

"No, it's quite delicious, I just suddenly thought of a question." Wen Zihuan shook his head.

"What's the problem?"

"Lu Zhou, why are you so nice to me?"

The whole house felt quiet after these words came out. Wen Zihuan had prepared himself mentally before asking this question.

In fact, he had wanted to say this for a long time. Ever since he was rescued by Lu Zhou, he had been enjoying his one-sided care. After all,

why was that company able to run so well, allowing him to do the work he wanted to do and not do it when he didn't want to? Anyone who is not a fool could see it after this period of time.

That's because there was someone behind the scenes who had been helping to cover the bottom. Even if the secretary didn't say it, he would have guessed it.

He saw Lu Zhou working in the study with the light on in the middle of the night several times, but they were documents of his company.

He had to admit that he had a very bad opinion of Lu Zhou just a few months ago.

At that time, he thought he was a playboy, and he was a dissolute person who lived a life of debauchery.

But after spending time with him for a while, he felt that it was not the case. He seemed to have changed a lot compared to his previous impression.

Lu Zhou was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke, "I have already given this answer, right?"

"When?" Wen Zihuan was immediately confused.

"When you and Zhou Jingbai, I said that you would be better off with me than with him. You must be living a much better life than now."

After saying this, it was Wen Zihuan's turn to be silent. He had said this many times, but he never got an answer from him.

However, what he thought was a teasing remark at the time would become a reality now.

"You must have thought I was a gangster at that time, right?" Lu Zhou laughed at himself.

Wen Zihuan also laughed, and just as he was about to reply, he was suddenly hugged tightly by a warm body.

"I'm sorry."

"Why are you apologizing suddenly?" He was puzzled.

"When we were at the resort island."

Wen Zihuan soon realized that he was talking about that time, when he and Chu Yao had a fight and he went back to the hotel alone and was almost murdered.

"If I hadn't been impulsive and hadn't fought with him and followed you all the time, nothing would have happened." Lu Zhou's voice actually began to choke up when he spoke.

Wen Zihuan was also surprised. After all, since he met Lu Zhou, his face was either smiling or angry. He never thought that one day he would see him crying.

It can’t be said that he saw it, but he heard it, because he was being held so he couldn’t see Lu Zhou’s expression.

Ever since that incident, Lu Zhou has always felt guilty. He has always been fearless in doing things, but at that time in the same hospital, he didn’t dare to visit Wen Zihuan, and he practiced apologizing in front of the mirror for a long time.

In fact, he secretly went to see it a few times later, but Zhou Jingbai was with him every time,

so he didn’t go in in the end. Wen Zihuan smiled with relief. Although he really blamed Lu Zhou for this incident at that time, he thought it through later.

Those guys obviously hated him and wanted to kill him. It didn’t seem like they met him by chance, but it seemed like they were waiting for him, and they deliberately chose a place where few people passed by.

What’s more, he left first that day, and they didn’t chase him away.

"So is this why you treat me well?" Wen Zihuan asked back.

When Lu Zhou separated, he had already wiped away his tears without leaving a trace, "Yes, but... not all."

After saying this, the two looked at each other without continuing to talk.

In the middle of the night, the night light was turned on in the room, but it was not as quiet as outside, and panting could be heard from time to time.

Lu Zhou looked at the arms that had been hooked around his neck and gently pinched the slender waist under him, "Where did you learn that?"

Wen Zihuan was about to say something but braked quickly and finally just lowered his head.

Lu Zhou quickly guessed the answer and did not continue to ask questions, but his speed increased.

Wen Zihuan slept until noon. He was not woken up naturally, but was woken up by a phone call. He woke up instantly after seeing the note on it.

"I forgot to block it." He hung up after a moment's hesitation, but the phone rang again three seconds later.

The third time, he was really annoyed and answered the phone, but when he opened his mouth to speak, he found that his voice was hoarse.

"What's wrong with your throat? Are you sick?" Zhou Jingbai asked on the other end of the phone.

Wen Zihuan looked at himself under the quilt, who had changed into clean pajamas, and his cheeks instantly became hot. "Nothing, why are you calling me?"

"You didn't come to the company today."

"How did you know?" Wen Zihuan couldn't help but wonder, but he quickly realized that he had come to him again and failed. However, this time it was not that the front desk deliberately made things difficult for him and didn't let him see him, but that he was really not there.

"You're on vacation today. What do you want

to talk to me about?" Wen Zihuan looked around as if he was going to get a glass of water to moisten his throat. At this time, there was a knock on the door and someone walked in quickly. "Why are you up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer? Who are you calling? Just leave the company to me today, you don't have to worry about it. Is it the company's call?" Lu Zhou walked to the bed with a glass of warm water and saw the note on the phone screen. His face instantly sank.

"Drink some water. Your throat is hoarse. The pear soup will be ready soon. Drink it and then go to sleep." Lu Zhou did not directly participate in the conversation between the two, but he still let Zhou Jingbai on the other end of the phone say all the words he wanted to say.

After drinking the water, Wen Zihuan's throat felt much better. Lu Zhou took the cup and said, "How do you feel? Does it still hurt? I applied medicine to you this morning. I won't do it for so long next time."

"What are you talking about?" Wen Zihuan's pale face suddenly turned red.

How could Zhou Jingbai not hear what he was talking about? Thinking of how he had just asked if his throat was hoarse because he was sick, he became even more silent.

"Hang up on irrelevant calls. Don't disturb your rest." Lu Zhou advised but actually did it for him.

"Why do you still keep his number? Do you want to rekindle the old relationship?" Lu Zhou was a little jealous.

"I was busy with company matters during this period and forgot to block him." Wen Zihuan explained quickly, and then added the phone call just now to the blacklist in front of him.

However, Zhou Jingbai, who hesitated for half an hour before deciding to call again, fell into endless silence as the phone suddenly changed to "The user you are calling is busy".
