Chapter 123 Take a Step Towards Him
Unlike the previous times when she had gone out before dawn, Shi Yin changed her clothes and went downstairs at 7:30 this morning as usual. She walked down the stairs, but after only a few steps, she felt someone's eyes on her.
She raised her eyes.
Look in the direction of the gaze.
I saw Han Zhan sitting on the sofa in the living room.
The man was wearing home clothes, which added a touch of laziness and a sense of life. Under his gaze, Shi Yin arrived at the entrance of the living room. He walked towards her, and just before he got close, Shi Yin took a step and moved half an inch towards him.
"Uncle Han is making breakfast."
"Um."
"I'm cooking your favorite egg noodles."
"oh oh."
"There are more daisies than last night. Want to go take a look in the yard?"
"good."
Shi Yin nodded.
She wasn't a lively person, she was quiet and few in words. This kind of person wasn't only unpleasant, but rather a bit annoying. Shi Yin had a clear understanding of herself, and after answering him, she asked, "Han Zhan, do you think I'm not that easy to get along with? Is it difficult to approach me?"
Han Zhan didn't answer, but instead threw the question to her: "Wife, do you think I talk too much, like a sparrow on a telephone pole, chirping non-stop, noisy and annoying?"
"Won't."
"Is this true?"
"I never found you annoying." Shi Yin said.
She looked serious.
The words are sincere.
She is very much like a daughter of a famous lady from the old Beijing era, and in layman's terms, she is an honest person. Beneath her cold face, she hides a very sincere heart.
Han Zhan walked beside her, and when he looked down at her, he took her hand. He saw her eyes pause slightly, like the silly goose in the cartoon, stunned for a moment, which was kind of cute and innocent.
Han Zhan smiled. "Wife, I'm notorious. Whether in the upper circles of Beijing or across the country, I can't find a wealthy lady willing to marry me. I'm lucky enough to marry you. Even if you're harder to get along with than the emperor and more difficult to approach than the president, that's my problem. I haven't worked hard enough, and it has nothing to do with you."
"That's because they don't understand you. Once the lawsuit for spreading rumors is over, your image will be reversed. With your looks and figure that far surpass 99.9% of men, your own strength, and your status as the second young master of the Han family, the entire capital city will be filled with people who want to marry you."
"My own strength?"
"Well, you're better than Big Brother. I've always known that."
“…”
Han Zhan was silent.
The joking expression between his eyebrows faded a lot.
He lowered his eyes again to look at the person beside him, and the corners of his lips curved slightly. After so many years of being slandered, the most common thing he heard was comparing himself to Han Zheng. Without exception, he was always inferior to Han Zheng. In the words of those people, Han Zheng was the moon in the sky, and he was the dirt under their feet.
But.
But someone said that he was better than Han Zheng, and she had always known it.
Han Zhan silently held her hand tightly. He returned to his usual playful self and teased her in a nonchalant tone: "Wife, in your eyes, my appearance and figure are far better than 99.9% of men? I'm so outstanding, no wonder you like me."
Shi Yin: “…”
People are silent when they have nothing to say.
She rolled her eyes at him.
No words.
I looked down at the newly blooming daisies in the flowerbed.
Han Zhan was amused by her expression. He took two steps to the side, walked around to her, and bent down to look at her face that was warmed by the morning sunlight: "Wife, I'm not the second young master of the Han family anymore, what should I do?"
Shi Yin: "You must live a good life too."
Han Zhan: "Will you dislike me? After all, having the Han family as a facade will make me look a lot better."
"I'd be happy for you."
"How do you say that?"
"You've escaped from the sea of suffering." Shi Yin looked up at him, her gaze resting on his shoulder. "You've been hurt in that family. It's a blessing to be able to escape. It means that every day in the future, you will be happier than before."
This was not the first time Han Zhan heard the word happy from her.
Whether it is Chinese New Year or birthday wishing.
She always wished him: "Safety, health, happiness and joy."
It seemed that in her eyes, a healthy body was the most important thing, followed by a positive mood and a sunny and positive attitude. It was as if she was blessing the people she cared about with something she longed for but could never obtain.
No matter what.
Han Zhan was very pleased that she came downstairs at 7:30 this morning to look at the flowers with him and have breakfast with him. God knows he didn't sleep all night last night. Before dawn, he went to the garage to take a look at the Porsche Macan still parked there. Then he went up to the first floor living room and waited for her, while sending the servants to check on her car in the garage every ten minutes.
Fortunately, the car was parked there.
She didn't sneak away.
As he wished, he saw her at the time when she usually came downstairs.
The housekeeper's voice came from the side door, calling them to eat. Shi Yin turned back towards the house, and Han Zhan followed her: "Wife, will you get off work on time today?"
"meeting."
"Will I have breakfast with you tomorrow morning?"
"Um."
"Next time the Shi family has an overseas assignment, can I go with you?"
"You can go if you have time."
"I'm quite free! If I come along, I can take your family's place and travel for free without having to pay for it myself. It's a great opportunity. Honey, you're still the best at managing the household."
"Wife, I haven't seen you wearing this outfit today. Is it new?"
"right."
"It looks really good, even casual suits look classy."
"Honey, there's another pair of koi fish in the artificial lake that's in love. They're always sticking together, so sweet and affectionate."
"Honey, do you want to fertilize the succulents on the flower stand? I think they're too thin."
"Honey, the shirt you bought me has a button missing. I sewed it back on, but it looked awful. So when are you going to buy me a new shirt?"
"Honey, it's a sunny day this Saturday. Do you want to go to the amusement park? Except for the haunted house, everything else is free to play."
"Wife, Lu Cheng said that his family hired a master who is very good at making Chinese pastries, and the snow cake he made is very delicious. I immediately refuted him and said that the snow cake my wife makes is unbeatable in the world. So, wife, when will you make it again? It's not that I want to eat it, but I want to use it to look down on Lu Cheng."
"Wife..."
-
Afternoon.
Psychological counseling room.
Across the desk, Shi Yin stared at Dr. Rong opposite her. As if after careful consideration, without any hesitation, she said straight to the point: "I have an idea. I want to try it with Han Zhan."
"Not scared anymore?"
"I'm afraid." Shi Yin said frankly, "If I don't avoid him on purpose, I'll have nightmares at night."
"You want to try it with him?"
Shi Yin pursed her lips, her eyes determined: "Well, I'm afraid of pain, and even more afraid of dying on a nightmare night. But no matter how I drive him away, he is running towards me. Between the two of us, he has taken ninety-nine steps towards me, and I want to take the last step."
