Chapter 161 Uncle Han, why are you here?
There were so many acquaintances coming to the island all of a sudden. That afternoon, I heard that Han Chen had already left with Zhou Jintang, so I just said hello to Zhou Jingyu without saying hello to anyone else.
Zhou Jingyu also decided to take Chen Zan to Haishi across the street to stay for one night. They would take a flight back to Rongchuan early tomorrow morning. Chen Zan's luggage was still there and he needed to go back to get it.
As for Han Shiyue, he followed Zhou Jingyu's yacht to Hai City in a daze, bought the nearest flight and went directly back to Beijing.
It was a long time later, when Chen Zan joined the Translation Department and Zhou Jintang went to have a drink with her privately, he accidentally learned that the young couple had not broken up after Han Shiyue went abroad.
It's just a long-distance relationship, and both of them have many outstanding suitors around them. Han Shiyue was working on a project with his supervisor abroad, and he met a senior sister in the same project group. They discussed the subject project, and they became familiar with each other after a few visits.
Someone secretly took photos of Han Shiyue and his senior sister going to and from class and anonymously sent them to Zhou Jintang in China, and the two of them quarreled on the phone across the ocean.
Han Shiyue also took leave from his busy schedule and flew back just to make Zhou Jintang happy. He promised her that apart from normal project exchanges within the group, he would never have any contact with that senior sister again.
So he was hastily coaxed into staying with her for only one night before he had to fly back to school. The two of them were together for a month after that, and the anonymous number started sending photos to Zhou Jintang every now and then.
With faith in Han Shiyue's character, Zhou tried hard today not to think about those things. He also blocked his number and never looked at those photos again.
It was not until Christmas Eve that Han Shiyue's school was on vacation. He had originally planned to return home to spend the holiday with Zhou Jintang, but he was suddenly told that his tutor asked his group to stay and they would not be able to return for Christmas.
That night, someone sent Zhou Jintang a photo of Han Shiyue and his senior sister sitting side by side in a bar. They didn't look too intimate, but it made people feel uncomfortable.
As the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, Zhou Jintang has Zhou Chengnian and Zhou Jingyu to support her, and brothers like Jiang Yushan to help her out. Not to mention the status of her father and grandfather, she is a real princess who is loved by everyone, and no one dares to offend her.
This number has been provoking her. If it had been before, she would definitely have been angry and tortured Han Shiyue. But this time she didn't. She calmed down, asked someone to find out who the number was, and booked a plane ticket to find Han Shiyue as soon as possible.
This time, I brought the photos with me, not only to question him, but also to make it clear to Han Shiyue that if he no longer loves me and cannot fulfill those promises, they can just break up, and there should be no one to sow discord between them.
But this time, Zhou Jintang went there empty-handed. Han Shiyue's phone was turned off, and she waited outside his apartment all night.
Han Chen appeared at that time. It turned out that the private apartment where Han Shiyue lived abroad belonged to Han Chen. Zhou Jintang then learned that Han Shiyue's group of students had followed their tutor to attend an academic exchange meeting. As for why the mobile phone was turned off, Han Chen said it might be out of battery.
This excuse is really ridiculous. Anyway, Zhou Jintang fell ill and stayed in the apartment for a day. The next day, with a high fever of 38 degrees, she asked Han Chen to tell her the address of the academic exchange meeting.
Han Chen looked at her expressionlessly at the time, "Do you really have to go find him?"
Zhou Jintang said yes stubbornly.
Han Chen is not a warm-hearted person, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is cold-blooded and ruthless. She was quite surprised that he actually drove Zhou Jintang there personally that day, but she was preoccupied with other things at the time and did not think too much about it.
After entering the venue, I found Han Shiyue in a corner of the hall. He and his senior sister were at the corner, talking and laughing. When they saw Zhou Jintang appear with a pale face, they looked very surprised.
He wanted to come over to pull her away immediately, but she dodged. Zhou Jintang asked him why his phone was turned off. Han Shiyue explained that he lost his phone yesterday. His senior sister also came over and said that she could testify.
Zhou Jintang looked at the two of them standing together, as if she was an outsider. She threw the photo into Han Shiyue's arms, slapped him, and decisively broke up with him.
Han Shiyue was completely confused at the time, and he was even more puzzled by the photos. He suddenly remembered that they did go to the bar to drink two days ago, but it was not just the two of them as shown in the photos.
He immediately went to chase after her, but was blocked by Han Chen. Zhou Jintang also took a taxi directly from the venue to the airport and bought a connecting flight back home.
At that time, Zhou Jintang thought that the two of them were finished. She hated being deceived the most, especially by Han Shiyue, who she grew up with. However, she did not expect that Han Shiyue would chase her back to China two days later.
She stayed at home in a daze for two days, and was called out by her friends for a drink. She heard someone mention that Han Shiyue had returned and was looking for Zhou Jintang everywhere. She asked her friends to tell her that he was waiting for her in another box.
Zhou Jintang thought he came back to explain what happened between him and his senior sister, but after thinking about the relationship they had shared for so many years, he still couldn't bear to let go. He immediately drank a few glasses of wine and left quietly to the private room Han Shiyue mentioned.
Maybe she arrived too early, but the room was empty. She opened two bottles of wine and poured them down the table. The alcohol took its toll, and she slumped groggily on the sofa. She heard the door open, and someone sat down beside her. Their cold fingertips gently peeled back the loose hair on her face.
There was music playing in the box and the lights were dim. Zhou Jintang could only see one person sitting next to her when she opened her eyelids. She thought it was Han Shiyue. After all, apart from the two of them, no one else should come in here.
She was still angry, so she didn't look at him directly. She turned her face to the inside of the sofa and said angrily, "What do you want to tell me? Don't think that I will soften my heart just because you come back. We have broken up. You can continue your affectionate relationship with your senior sister."
The man's voice sounded cold and deep: "Are you awake now?"
Zhou Jintang: "It's none of your business, get out of here."
The man continued, "Then why did you come here?"
Zhou Jintang bit his lip and retorted, "Don't you have something to tell me? Just say it clearly tonight. After that, we'll go our separate ways. You don't have to worry about me anymore, and I won't worry about you either."
At that time, she thought Han Shiyue would feel sorry for her as before, but she didn't expect that after she finished speaking, the man actually agreed: "Okay."
Zhou Jintang couldn't believe it and opened her eyes wide. She wanted to see his expression, and tears flowed uncontrollably. She didn't want to lose face, so she turned her face away quickly, "Are you in love with her?"
Han Shiyue didn't answer her question, but said, "I agree to break up. Zhou Jintang, let's break up."
Zhou Jintang's hopes all collapsed, his heart ached. He bit his lower lip tightly and said harshly, "We broke up a long time ago. Han Shiyue, remember, I was the one who dumped you."
Han Shiyue hummed again and stood up: "You just need to remember that you have broken up with Han Shiyue, and don't go abroad to look for me again."
Zhou Jintang just felt that this sentence was a little wrong at the time, but his brain was slow to react. When he turned around with a stiff neck, the man had already opened the box and left.
She didn't expect Han Shiyue to break up so quickly. He didn't even say a word to comfort her. His tone was extremely cold and ruthless. He suddenly smashed a bottle of wine against the door and shouted, "Han Shiyue, you are such a bastard."
Later, Zhou Jintang lay on the table and cried heartbrokenly, his hair was wet, and he fell asleep while crying.
She didn't know how long it had been before someone else came into the box. She was pushed awake and someone put hot honey water in her mouth and forced her to drink it.
Zhou Jintang woke up in a daze, and while subconsciously gulping down water, she opened her eyes to look at the man who was pinching her face.
Meeting those deep-set eyes, Zhou Jintang was still puzzled and said in a hoarse voice, "Uncle Han, why are you here?"
