When Ling Ran came back, Zhou Xiang had just finished cleaning the table and was about to wash the dishes.
Ling Ran took the dishcloth and said, "I'll wash it. You go take a shower first."
"All right!"
Zhou wanted to put down the work here, take a shower, and wait for Ling Ran to blow her hair.
"How about I cut my hair short? I don't want to blow-dry my hair after washing it."
"Lazy girl, don't you have me here? I love to blow dry your hair."
"real?"
"real."
After Ling Ran finished his shower and closed the door, Zhou Xiang went upstairs with him.
Looking at the drunk Wu Haotian, Zhou's mother was worried, "Haotian, should I take care of him for the night?"
Wu Haotian shook his head. "It's okay. I can take care of them, mother and daughter. You can go back and rest!"
Seeing that he insisted, Zhou's mother left. Zhong Lan smelled the alcohol and was a little worried. "Mr. Wu, are you okay?"
I took off my coat that smelled of alcohol, went to the bathroom to brush my teeth, and then came out.
"It's okay. I still have to take care of you and your daughter. I won't get drunk. I'll get rid of the alcohol smell on me so that I don't stink you up."
"Or, you can have a good sleep. I can handle it myself."
After hearing this, Wu Haotian no longer smelled of alcohol. He walked around the screen, squatted beside the bed, and looked directly into Zhong Lan's eyes. "What I'm most afraid of is what you said. I'm afraid that you will say that you can do it, I'm afraid that you will say that you and the child don't need me.
I know that I was too obsessed in the past and was always cold-hearted in my pursuit of you. Please give me a chance, give me the chance to take care of you and your daughter. Ever since you left, I felt that everything was wrong.
After a long time, I finally understood that it was because I didn't have you. Without you, nothing was right with me.
Then I realized that you are already in my heart, covering up the original feelings.
Then I understood that the original feeling was transformed from admiration and was an unrealistic unrequited love.
I finally understood that my feelings for you are tangible feelings."
Zhong Lan was stunned. Was Mr. Wu confessing his feelings to her? Did he no longer love Zhou Xiang? Could he have changed his mind so easily?
"Silly! You are the only one who can make me change my mind. Only a silly girl like you who doesn't ask for anything in return can attract my heart."
Huh? Did she ask that?
Wu Haotian had originally confessed his feelings under the influence of alcohol, but now seeing Zhong Lan's stunned look, he couldn't hold back any longer. He leaned out half of his body and kissed the pink lips that seemed to be inviting him.
When the faint smell of alcohol wafted into her mouth, Zhong Lan remembered to close her mouth, but it was too late. The man she loved was leading her tongue to dance. She didn't know whether she was intoxicated by the man she loved or by the smell of alcohol, but Zhong Lan only felt dizzy and short of breath.
"Silly, breathe!"
The words she heard reminded her that she still had to breathe. She took a few deep breaths and her head finally cleared up.
She wanted to question Mr. Wu, but when she met his tender eyes, she couldn't bring herself to ask.
Wu Haotian tapped the tip of her nose and asked, "Do you want to question me?"
"You know again?"
“Haha, when you’re not pretending to be expressionless with a straight face, your emotions are written all over your face.
You don't need to ask, what I just said is the truth, Zhonglan, I like you, do you still have feelings for me? Are you willing to forgive me? Are you willing to give me a chance to take care of you and your daughter? "
"Just like it?" Zhong Lan couldn't help but ask.
Wu Haotian was a little embarrassed. "You, you only said that you liked me. I, I was afraid of giving too much at once, not getting the chance, and it would be difficult to take it back. I can only suppress my emotions."
Zhong Lan pouted. "Why are you suppressing it? The more you suppress it, the more it rebounds. You suppressed it too much before, didn't you?"
Wu Haotian covered her mouth and said, "Let's not talk about the past. The past is a beautiful memory, just put it in a corner of your heart. Now there is a better future. Are you willing?"
Zhong Lan really wanted to nod, she was willing, but she felt embarrassed as Miss Zhou's words and the boss's words kept ringing in her ears.
Wu Haotian released her hand and kissed her pouting lips. "Why don't we just do this secretly? Let's wait until Ling Ran and Zhou Xiang are done with their revenge for you, then we can announce it to the public, okay?"
Zhong Lan shook her head, "I don't want to deceive the boss and Miss Zhou, you'd better accept the punishment honestly!"
Although Wu Haotian was disappointed, he was not desperate. Zhong Lan was clearly willing in her heart, so he could just pursue her for a while longer! He had said that he would pursue her well.
"Okay! I'll accept the punishment, but!"
"But what?"
"But I won't give up my benefits." After saying that, he kissed the lips that tempted him again.
This time, Zhong Lan knew how to breathe. She raised her arms and put them around Mr. Wu's neck, offering her passion as well.
Wu Haotian was ignited by Zhong Lan's passion, and his kiss gradually deepened. Finally, he used his utmost perseverance to push away the person who tempted him, "Lan, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Zhong Lan smiled seductively, "So what? Who told you that you only like me?"
Wu Haotian's legs were numb from squatting, but he didn't dare to stand up. Hearing this, he pinched her cheek and said, "I dare not. You can laugh at me for being timid or cowardly, but I can only passively accept it."
Zhong Lan's expression turned serious, "Mr. Wu..."
Wu Haotian waved his hand, "Wait, call me Haotian."
Zhong Lan shook her head, "No, the boss will be angry."
"Screaming behind someone's back."
Zhong Lan still shook her head, "I can't do it. I will forget it."
Wu Haotian didn't force her. She was the type who wouldn't lie. "Okay! Just keep calling me that! What did you want to say?"
"I want to say that we slowly got along like this, without going through a romantic relationship and having a child directly. I don't want my child to grow up in a loveless family.
You are afraid and you can only passively accept it. Okay, let's work it out together. When you are no longer afraid and you dare to take a step forward for love, then you can ask me if I am willing, okay?"
Wu Haotian gently touched her head, "Okay! I understand. You've given me a chance, and you've also given Ling Ran and Zhou Xiang an explanation. Okay, I'll try my best."
Zhong Lan took his hand away and said, "My hair is very greasy."
“Not greasy, very beautiful.”
Zhong Lan just didn't understand. How could Mr. Wu, who was so eloquent and good at praising people, be so timid as to not take the first step towards love?
If he said he was cowardly and hesitant about his feelings for Miss Zhou, that's believable. He also said he had feelings for her that were palpable, so why didn't he dare to take the leap? What was it that made him afraid to commit?
Seeing that Zhong Lan stopped talking, Wu Haotian thought she was tired and gently told her to lie down and go to sleep.
Zhong Lan lay down obediently, "Mr. Wu, good night!"
"good evening!"
Wu Haotian stood up, tucked the quilt for her, and kissed her on the forehead.
How wonderful! He will have a family too.
He slept soundly that night, but whenever his daughter cried, he would immediately get up to change her diaper, wash his hands, and prepare a hot towel for Zhonglan.
