Zhou Sinian had no idea what Yun Qing was thinking. He was sitting on pins and needles in the back seat, and tried to explain several times, but he didn't know where to start.
To say that he didn't sabotage her relationship with Xue Jiayu behind her back is clearly unrealistic. As the parties involved, all three of them knew exactly what happened back then. Even if Yun Qing didn't see through the inside story at the time, after tonight, she probably knows everything.
He had told himself he didn't care about her thoughts, but at this moment, Zhou Sinian still subconsciously wanted to explain; he didn't want to become unrecognizable in her eyes.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke: "Yunqing, don't you have anything you want to ask me? For example, what Xue Jiayu said about that matter."
The car was driving very smoothly, and Yun Qing was almost asleep when she heard this. She opened her eyes and said, "What's there to ask? Isn't what he said the truth?"
She knew all along; Zhou Sinian's body was as if bound by an invisible rope, unable to move.
His voice was hoarse and rough, as if it had been ground by sand: "When did you find out?"
"Does it matter?" Yun Qing really didn't think there was any need to dig into this matter, since she hadn't been affected at all.
However, Zhou Sinian misunderstood her meaning, thinking that she had already sentenced him to death in her heart.
At that moment, his face instantly lost all color, looking extremely pale.
"Are you disappointed in me?" The rough voice trembled almost imperceptibly, trying to maintain a semblance of dignity.
Yun Qing was puzzled and disappointed. What did that mean?
"Did you do something to wrong me?"
"I was the one who broke you up with Xue Jiayu, Qin Ming, Zhao Yue... You must hate me a lot, right?"
So that's what happened. At this moment, Yun Qing really felt that Zhou Sinian was overly self-conscious. If she really liked him, with his clumsy tea ceremony performance, what could he possibly sow discord between them? She was just going with the flow.
Thinking about it this way, Yun Qing was almost moved to tears by her own actions. She had been spoiling Zhou Sinian way too much.
"Come here." She beckoned with her finger.
Zhou Sinian was puzzled, but he still obediently moved closer to her, facing her directly.
Yun Qing reached out and cupped his face, pouting with a helpless look.
"You're so naive, really. Who would treat you like a child if you left me? Do you think I can't see through your little tricks? You're just pretending not to know."
At that moment, fireworks exploded in Zhou Sinian's mind; he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
After a long while, he finally snapped out of his excitement and hugged Yun Qing tightly.
"Tell me why? Why are you pretending not to know?"
Feeling the rapid heartbeat beside her ear, Yun Qing smiled slightly and lifted her head from Zhou Sinian's embrace.
"Aren't you just asking the obvious? After all, you can change boyfriends, but Brother Si Nian is one of a kind, um—"
Before she could finish speaking, her lips were instantly sealed shut. The person beside her transformed into a wild beast, pouncing and biting her forcefully, as if trying to devour her whole.
The partition on the vehicle slowly rose.
In the boundless night, a black Maybach suddenly reversed and drove off in the opposite direction.
When they arrived at the apartment building near Yun'an Group, the speeding car stopped. Zhou Sinian took off his suit jacket and wrapped it tightly around the slender woman in his arms.
Yun Qing curled up in a ball, the blush on her face lingering for a long time, her exposed calves flushed a light pink, and there were two faint hickeys on the back of her slender neck, silently revealing their ambiguity.
Zhou Sinian entered the elevator with unsteady steps and opened the door to his room with trembling hands.
The room was pitch black, no one turned on the lights. After a while, heavy breathing could be heard in the darkness, accompanied by soft moans.
At the Zhou family home, Bai Xiaohe listened to the busy tone on her phone and fell into deep thought.
What's with this unreliable son? He even sent a WeChat message earlier, saying that he invited Yunqing to be his guest and that the grandmother and grandson shouldn't sleep yet to avoid being exposed.
It's bad enough that they're late, but now they're not even answering the phone.
Zhou Yunnan was dozing off on the sofa, rubbing his eyes with his chubby little hands, pouting pitifully, "Grandma, I'm sleepy~"
“Oh, my dear grandson, Grandma will take you to bed now. It’s all your fault for that useless father. He made us wait for nothing. He’s been out gallivanting somewhere. When your mother comes home, she’ll give him a good talking to.”
"Yay! But Grandma, will Mom really be willing to come back?"
"Of course, Xiao Nan, you have to believe that your mother loves you the most, and your father also holds a place in her heart."
"Yes, I believe that's what Dad has always said."
"Yes, your mother was just a bit playful. She will eventually come back to this family. All we need to do is wait patiently. As the saying goes, 'A prodigal daughter who returns is more precious than gold,' and that's exactly the point."
...
The next day, Yun Qing opened her eyes.
Seeing Zhou Sinian beside her, a blush rose on her face. Her waist was still hurting, all because of this culprit.
Under that indignant gaze, Zhou Sinian quickly woke up.
When their eyes met, he blushed and, recalling everything from last night, felt a surge of sweetness.
Before this, he never imagined that one day he could be so close to the person he loved.
I thought that their fate had long since run its course, and even if they got back together, it would only be for the sake of the child, and at most they would live a life of mutual respect.
Unexpectedly, fate was so kind to him; Yun Qing truly couldn't forget her old feelings for him.
At that moment, he was completely convinced that she must have had her reasons for leaving three years ago.
She even called Si Nian "brother".
Now that things have come to this, what is there left for him to hold onto? She just made a mistake that all women in the world would make. What's the point of him clinging to it? It would only increase suspicion and give those with ulterior motives an opportunity to take advantage of her.
Besides, Yun Qing has now deeply realized her mistakes, and she doesn't even care about his past attempts to sow discord between them. Doesn't this prove that he is the most important person to her, and everyone else is just an occasional diversion?
She's so tolerant and loves him so much, he should be a virtuous husband and stop being jealous.
Adhering to this principle, Zhou Sinian quickly got up to help Yun Qing wash up and personally prepared a delicious breakfast.
After finishing his meal with Yun Qing, he made a heartfelt confession, explaining his thoughts word for word.
Yun Qing was deeply moved upon hearing this, and tears streamed down her face as she exclaimed, "With a husband like this, what more could a wife ask for!"
Then, Zhou Sinian suggested, "My dear, there's no time like the present, let's get our marriage certificate today. From now on, Yunnan will never have to envy other people's parents again."
Although she didn't understand the relationship between the two, Yun Qing thought about it for a moment and agreed.
