Chapter 842 Finale 21
"What's wrong?"
Quan Jiu noticed that he was thinking differently.
Zhou Jing remained calm and ignored the intermittent fragments of memory in his mind.
"nothing."
He hugged the person in his arms tightly, bent down and kissed her between the eyebrows, picked her up horizontally and walked towards the pool.
"Are you hungry? I'll ask someone to bring some food over. What do you want?"
When the two entered the villa, the sky was still filled with sunset glow, but now, the surroundings were dark and quiet.
Quan Jiu dangled her white feet, her cheeks rosy from the hot spring steam. She nestled in Zhou Jing's arms and said without a second thought:
"Wine-fermented duck."
The scene before Zhou Jing's eyes blurred again. In the antique-style room, a crisp voice seemed to speak with a smile...
He didn't stop and his expression didn't change at all, but the doubts in his heart grew heavier.
After Quan Jiu soaked in the hot springs and ate and drank her fill, she soon wanted to fall asleep. As soon as she closed her eyes, a pair of large hands slowly moved up along her waist curve...
The man who had tasted the sweetness of life had unlimited energy. It was already late at night when the two of them went to bed again.
…
Han Xun was worried all day because of what happened yesterday and didn't sleep well that night.
Worried that Zhou Jing might be upset, he couldn't help but call him.
The call is connected.
Han Xun listened to the silence on the other side and spoke hesitantly: "...Brother Jing?"
"Um."
There was a two-second pause before someone responded from the other side. Zhou Jing's voice was low and hoarse.
When Han Xun heard this, he knew that he had been "sad" and hadn't slept all night. He didn't mention what happened yesterday, and his tone was deliberately relaxed:
"Peng Fei is organizing a party tonight. It's all friends, no outsiders. Do you want to come over and play for a while?"
Zhou Jing: "What time?"
Han Xun: "Eight o'clock."
Zhou Jing: "Send me the address."
He hung up the phone and lowered his head to meet Quan Jiu's crystal clear black eyes.
"You're going to a party?"
Zhou Jing pinched the tip of her nose: "It's not me, it's us."
Quan Jiu raised an eyebrow. She was already extremely beautiful, and now her allure was even more captivating.
"They are all your friends. It's not a good idea for me to go over there so suddenly, right?"
Zhou Jing didn't find it strange: "We'll meet sooner or later anyway."
………
That night.
When Han Xun saw Quan Jiu and Zhou Jing walking hand in hand into the box, his pupils widened and his fingertips trembled, and he didn't even realize that he had burned his fingers with the cigarette butt.
He couldn't help but ask, "Brother Jing?"
Others don’t know the inside story, but he knows clearly that Quan Jiu even has a son!
Is Brother Jing going to step in and become the "stepfather"?
When Peng Fei saw Quan Jiu for the first time, the surprise in his eyes had not yet faded away, when he suddenly saw the two people's hands clasped together, and he was knocked unconscious by a heavy hammer.
Zhou Jing remained calm, meeting the pairs of inquiring eyes in the box, and spoke calmly:
"Call me sister-in-law."
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
A group of people who were completely out of touch with the situation nodded instinctively, and after coming to their senses, they began to toast Zhou Jing.
"I was wondering why Brother Jing hadn't been out playing lately. Turns out he had a beautiful mistress hiding in his house."
Zhou Jing took Quan Jiu's hand and sat down: "Don't make fun of your sister-in-law."
The man smiled meaningfully: "I understand."
I didn't expect that a man who has been single for so long would be so clingy and protective when it comes to love.
The atmosphere in the box was getting more and more lively, but it did not affect Han Xun, Peng Fei and Xu Yuzan.
Peng Fei lowered his head and drank in silence. He was not surprised to see Han Xun. He felt upset.
"Did you know this a long time ago?"
Han Xun: "I just guessed before that they were together, and I only found out tonight."
Peng Fei was filled with indignation: "Brother Jing is so unkind. How could he do this..."
Han Xun knew how he felt. If someone else had snatched the Quan wine away, Peng Fei would at most be angry and rush forward with the bottle. But when that person turned out to be Zhou Jing, whom he had always admired and trusted, he couldn't tell for a moment whether he felt more sad that "the goddess ran away with someone else" or aggrieved that "his good brother actually stabbed him in the back" was more of a burden.
Xu Yuzhan's face turned very pale. When she saw Zhou Jing and Quan Jiu whispering with their heads down, she finally couldn't sit still anymore and left early with her bag.
Quan Jiu came back from the toilet and met Peng Fei, who was drunk, on the way.
The boy looked at her with a wronged expression, like an abandoned golden retriever.
"Boss lady."
Quan Jiu: "Are you drunk?"
Peng Fei shook his head: "This is just the beginning."
Quan Jiu knew what he wanted to say and took the initiative to speak:
"Being with Zhou Jing was my decision. I liked him, so I took the initiative to pursue him.
There are some things that are not my turn to say, but he is a quiet person and he is very reserved. If I don't say anything, he will probably keep it to himself for the rest of his life. I don't want to affect the relationship between you brothers.
Peng Fei, it's not that he doesn't care about the brotherhood between you two. On the contrary, he brought me to see you as soon as we established our relationship, so as to avoid causing you further harm."
A person like Zhou Jing is quite capable of keeping something secret for his entire life if he doesn't want someone to know it.
Peng Fei's eyes were moist, and he lowered his head in frustration: "...Why do you like Brother Jing?"
Although he cannot compare to Brother Jing in terms of appearance and ability, his family at least will not object. Moreover, when it comes to pleasing women, he thinks he is better than Brother Jing.
Quan Jiu said seriously, "It's not that you're not good enough, but even if I meet someone better and more perfect than Zhou Jing, I will only see him in my eyes. Do you understand?"
Peng Fei was stunned for a long time before he nodded dejectedly: "Yes..."
His drunkenness had worn off considerably, and he understood the meaning of Quan Jiu's words. His heart felt empty, yet also filled with a faint sadness.
I thought the two of them were just in a momentary mood, but since Quan Jiu could say this, it proved that she really liked Zhou Jing.
Peng Fei pinched his brows and said, "Forget it. Just treat the past as my ignorance and forget it quickly... If you think about it carefully, it's normal for you and Brother Jing to be together... But don't blame me for not reminding you, Mr. Zhou is not a kind-hearted person. He even wanted Brother Jing to arrange a marriage some time ago. You should keep a close eye on him."
Although Peng Fei, who didn't know that Quan Jiu had a child, felt that Mr. Zhou was a difficult person, he also believed that Brother Jing had the ability to solve the problem.
Quan Jiu's lips curled slightly: "Got it, thank you."
Peng Fei waved his hand and pointed to the men's bathroom:
"I've had too much to drink. I'm going to go vomit for a while. You can go back first."
Quan Jiu walked back, and after a few steps, he saw Zhou Jing and Han Xun at the corner.
She was stunned: "Why did you come out?"
Han Xun looked at her with a complicated look.
To be honest, he always felt that the relationship between Quan Jiu and Zhou Jing was unreliable. It was just a romantic encounter during a trip, and as strangers, they just had to be happy. But when it came to real life, it was completely different.
Before hearing what Quan Jiu said just now, he had always thought that the two of them were just attracted to each other and wanted to give it a try. After all, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They were both the pride of their kind, so it was normal for them to be attracted to each other.
