337: What about the matter between us?
Yu Xiaoye seemed to have escaped death. As soon as his body gained a glimmer of freedom, he quickly turned over and climbed up with the help of something in panic. As soon as he got up, he ran away with weak legs.
Zhou Ziheng didn't chase her out in time. Seeing her stumbling away, he was very worried that she would fall into the river, so he shouted from behind:
"Xiao Ye, don't run——"
Yu Xiaoye acted as if he didn't hear anything and continued to run forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. His body was a little unstable, as if he would fall at any time.
Zhou Ziheng was extremely worried. He grabbed the clothes, shoes and socks on the ground and quickly put them on without caring whether they were dry or not. While tying his belt, he chased towards the river.
Yu Xiaoye went back to find a boat, but his brain seemed to have crashed. When he ran to the river intersection, he stood by the river and couldn't tell the direction, not knowing which way to go.
Zhou Ziheng took the opportunity to catch up with her, grabbed her hand and said:
"Come on, I'll take you back."
Yu Xiaoye tried to break free from Zhou Ziheng's hand, but Zhou Ziheng held it and would not let go.
Yu Xiaoye knew how strong he was, and if he didn't let go, it would be useless for her to struggle.
In the end I had to give up.
The two walked towards the direction where the boat was moored.
No one spoke along the way.
What can I say?
No one knew what to say.
Yu Xiaoye didn’t know, and Zhou Ziheng didn’t know either.
Zhou Ziheng is very experienced in other matters and can handle them with ease, but when it comes to feelings, he is also a novice.
He didn't know whether the kiss just now was right or wrong, or whether it should be done.
I just want to kiss her uncontrollably, love her and touch her without crossing the bottom line. It's almost an instinct.
After that kiss, my body gradually calmed down. When I thought about it again, I felt that what I had just done was too crazy.
But, the kiss has already happened, and he will bear the consequences no matter what!
He grabbed Yu Xiaoye's hand, loosening and tightening it, as if conveying something.
Yu Xiaoye didn't respond at all. Her fingers were held stiffly by him. She lowered her head and let him lead her away.
When they arrived at the shore and found the small boat, Zhou Ziheng let go of Yu Xiaoye's hand. The two of them got on the boat and sat at the two ends of the boat just like when they came.
Yu Xiaoye sat there without saying a word, his eyes evasive, like a frightened deer.
Zhou Ziheng, who was sitting opposite, rowed the boat while staring at the person opposite him, feeling inexplicably anxious.
The boat rowed to the other side.
Zhou Ziheng got off the boat first and waited until the boat was tied before helping Yu Xiaoye down, but Yu Xiaoye had already stepped off the boat by himself.
When I was getting off the boat, my feet stumbled and I almost fell.
He staggered two steps and ran away before he could even stand firmly.
There was basically no danger here, so Zhou Ziheng didn't chase after him anymore. He just followed behind silently all the way. Somehow, he felt heartbroken.
Thinking back to that passionate kiss just now, my heart felt a sharp sweetness as if it was cut by a knife.
Mixed feelings.
The two men walked for a while, one in front of the other, and passed through a forest. In front of them was the headquarters.
Yu Xiaoye looked up at the houses in front of him and suddenly decided to move in.
Seeing that she stopped and seemed to be waiting for him, Zhou Ziheng hurriedly took two steps and came to her side.
At this time, Yu Xiaoye seemed to have recovered her composure from the panic just now, but she still didn't dare to look up at Zhou Ziheng. She just lowered her head and her eyes fell on Zhou Ziheng's shirt which was not yet dry.
Zhou Ziheng leaned forward slightly, gazing at her gently, waiting for her to speak.
Zhou Ziheng thought the little girl was going to tell her about the things between the two of them, but Yu Xiaoye said in a difficult voice:
"Manager, can you go and apologize to Brother Jia?"
Zhou Ziheng was stunned. This girl was so panicked, but she still didn't forget to ask him to apologize to Jia Song!
Zhou Ziheng didn't tease her this time and agreed readily:
"Okay, I can apologize to him—but I'm not apologizing because I did something wrong, I'm apologizing because you made me do it."
When Yu Xiaoye heard that Zhou Ziheng was willing to apologize, he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but after hearing the second half of his words, he didn't feel relieved anymore.
But no matter what, as long as Zhou Ziheng is willing to apologize, it's fine.
Yu Xiaoye added:
"Also, I promised him that I would help him get thirty dollars in compensation. Can you accept that?"
"Okay, thirty dollars, I'll give it to you. Anything else?"
Yu Xiaoye probably didn't expect the director to suddenly become so easy to talk to, and was a little uncomfortable for a moment:
"Nothing else."
"—What about the matter between us?"
Yu Xiaoye lowered his head, quietly pinching the hem of his clothes, his mind still in a mess:
"Let's talk about it later."
After saying that, he walked away, as if he didn't want to talk about anything that happened today.
Zhou Ziheng looked at her leaving back and smacked his lips, "Let's talk about it later." Since she didn't explicitly refuse, there was a chance!
Moreover, she did not lose her temper at his forceful kiss, nor did she say anything unpleasant.
This shows that she doesn't actually hate him, otherwise she would definitely be furious and curse at him, and maybe even threaten to sue him for being a hooligan.
But none of that happened. Instead, he seemed to be obedient and submissive.
Zhou Ziheng was very grateful, and at the same time felt distressed.
The heart that had been hanging in my throat all the way finally settled down in my stomach.
He quickly caught up with her and wanted to hold her hand.
Yu Xiaoye reacted quickly this time, and directly shook it off, scolding:
"Don't let anyone see!"
Zhou Ziheng is not afraid of others seeing it, he wishes everyone could see it!
But in order to take care of the little girl's feelings, he still kept a distance.
The two of them came to the back of the pig farm, where there were many people. Yu Xiaoye was afraid that someone would see her and the director having a tryst, and the director's clothes might not be completely dry yet. If someone saw them, it would be impossible for them not to think too much.
She stopped again
Come down.
Zhou Ziheng stepped forward consciously, and Yu Xiaoye lowered his head and said:
"You go this way, I'll go this way, let's go our separate ways."
"Um."
After a pause, Yu Xiaoye continued:
"Don't forget what you promised me. Brother Jia is in the infirmary. Go apologize to him and ask him to come back as soon as possible. I'll be waiting for him to come back for rehearsal."
"Don't worry, I will definitely let him go back to rehearsal."
Yu Xiaoye nodded. Thinking that Zhou Ziheng was actually unwilling to apologize, but still did it for him, Yu Xiaoye still expressed his gratitude:
"Thank you, Director."
Zhou Ziheng said with a hint of resentment:
"Don't call me Director in private from now on. Call me Brother Zhou, or just call me by my name."
Yu Xiaoye shook her head stubbornly. If she was asked to change her address to Brother Zhou, she could still consider it, but she really couldn't bring herself to call him by his name!
He is so much older than her and is her superior. How can she call him by his name?
Seeing that she was unwilling to change her words, Zhou Ziheng did not force her and had to give up.
Before parting, Zhou Ziheng said with concern:
"If you have any troubles that you can't solve in the future, come to me."
Yu Xiaoye nodded silently and walked away.
Zhou Ziheng said from behind:
"Don't forget to think about it when you get back. Don't rush to reply to me. I can wait for you for as long as you want."
Yu Xiaoye didn't respond and continued walking forward as if he didn't hear anything.
On her wrist, she also wore a dogtail grass bracelet that she had woven herself.
