"I don't know what I'm thinking. It's so easy to shake myself. Zhuang Zhoucheng, I don't know what to do either."

The soft voice came from Zhuang Zhoucheng's body, sounding a little muffled.

Zhuang Zhoucheng stroked Huo Yan's hair with his big palm and whispered:

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about anything. Just trust me, I will arrange everything for you, okay?"

"..."

Huo Yan took a breath. He was still in a state of confusion and didn't even understand what he was thinking.

Thinking of the look the eldest wife gave her, Huo Yan felt annoyed again.

"I, I feel so sorry for Ji Wuwei." Huo Yan said in a depressed voice.

This was the first time he spoke directly to Zhuang Zhoucheng about this matter after eloping with Ji Wuwei.

Both of them knew that it was a taboo topic and kept avoiding it, deceiving themselves as if nothing had happened.

Therefore, Zhuang Zhoucheng didn’t know what Huo Yan was thinking at the moment, whether he had reflected on himself after that incident, and whether he had accepted his fate after seeing the facts.

Or maybe, she is just obedient on the surface, but in her heart she is still thinking about leaving him or has other ideas.

No matter which one it was, he felt uneasy deep down.

Zhuang Zhoucheng gently stroked Huo Yan's hair, and after a long while he said:

"Don't worry, I'm here. I'll take care of it, okay?"

Huo Yan opened his mouth, wanting to speak but stopping himself. He held Zhuang Zhou's waist for a long time before speaking:

"Zhuang Zhoucheng, I want to study abroad. Can you let me go? Any country is fine. I want..."

She wanted to escape from everything here, wait for her to calm down for a few years and think things through carefully, then face these things again, and she might do better.

I am now immature, irrational, willful, and mischievous, and I cannot face all this calmly.

Zhuang Zhoucheng paused for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking.

Huo Yan didn't see him answer, so he raised his head slightly and looked at him:

"You won't let me go abroad again?"

He had indeed been lying to her. Ji Wuwei was right. He had no real intention of letting her go abroad. He just wanted to keep her by his side to satisfy his selfish desires. He was not really doing this for her good.

"Are you overthinking things again? Your application has already been approved. How can I stop you from going abroad? I'm just worried about you. If you go abroad alone, many unexpected situations cannot be prevented..."

"I can do it myself. Believe me, I can live a good life." Huo Yan spoke hurriedly, staring at Zhuang Zhoucheng.

"Let's talk about it later. It's still early, no rush." Zhuang Zhoucheng held her hair and whispered.

Huo Yan wanted to say something but stopped herself. She lowered her eyelids and put her face close to his waist again. In the end, she didn't insist on this topic anymore.

Zhuang Zhoucheng let her cling to him for a while, then gently pushed her away and said:

"Okay, go clean yourself up and get some rest."

"do not do it."

Huo Yan's round head pressed forward again, and Zhuang Zhoucheng held her face with his big hands and said seriously:

"Be obedient, huh? It's getting late. Can you wake up in the morning if you sleep late?"

"I'm on vacation now, can't I get up later?" Huo Yan muttered.

Getting up early is a life-threatening thing for her.

"Okay, I'll tell my family tomorrow so they don't have to wait for you for breakfast..."

"hinder!"

Huo Yan interrupted him and pushed Zhuang Zhoucheng away:

"You did it on purpose."

Zhuang Zhoucheng smiled and said, "Just bear with it for a few days, okay?"

Huo Yan didn't say anything. Zhuang Zhoucheng pinched her face and turned sideways to take out the clothes she bought today. She had to rinse them immediately, otherwise she would have nothing to change into tomorrow.

I took out all the clothes and looked at them. There weren't many, so I rolled up my sleeves and took them into the bathroom to wash them by hand.

Zhuang Zhoucheng rinsed his clothes and threw them all into the dryer. He set the timer, and when he came out, Huo Yan was lying on the bed without moving.

Zhuang Zhoucheng thought she was asleep, so he walked over and prepared to take off her clothes, but he saw the cell phone on the bed flashing.

Zhuang Zhoucheng's face darkened and he sat down beside the bed.

"Yan'er, go wash up. You've been outside all day. Don't you feel uncomfortable?"

Zhuang Zhoucheng put his palm on her waist. Shouldn’t girls be more clean?

Why is this little thing even sloppier than him?

"I'm waiting for you."

Huo Yan quickly slid the screen of her phone and turned to look at him.

Zhuang Zhoucheng raised his eyebrows, and Huo Yan climbed up:

"My hands and feet hurt, how can I take a shower?"

So, wait for him to serve you.

Zhuang Zhoucheng raised his eyebrows. After the first time, she started to be lazy, right?

"Your feet hurt from jumping around outside?" Zhuang Zhoucheng replied.

Huo Yan curled her lips, leaned towards him, and held his hand:

"I don't want to move, can I..."

"Can't!"

Zhuang Zhoucheng stood up and simply dragged her off the bed, no longer wasting time with her.

"Hurry up and take a shower and go to bed. You stay up until midnight every night. Do you do it on purpose?" Zhuang Zhoucheng picked up Huo Yan and pushed him into the bathroom.

"Get out, I need to go to the bathroom."

Huo Yan was pushed by Zhuang Zhoucheng and felt unhappy, so he pushed Zhuang Zhoucheng hard with his backhand.

Zhuang Zhoucheng looked at her and said helplessly:

"Don't dawdle, huh?"

Zhuang Zhoucheng walked out over there. Great, the girl was sitting on the toilet playing with her cell phone, having a lot of fun playing games.

Many times when people are extremely tired, they just don't want to move at all. They are unwilling to move even if things are within reach and always procrastinate.

Zhuang Zhoucheng waited outside for a long time and had to knock on the door.

"Yan'er, did you fall asleep in there, or did you have a stomachache?"

"I'll be there soon, don't rush me..."

Huo Yan's eyes darted left and right, staring intently at the screen of his mobile phone, his fingers moving quite quickly.

Zhuang Zhoucheng waited outside for a while, then knocked on the door again. The door opened immediately, and a tall figure blocked the doorway, staring at her with dark eyes.

Hey guys, playing games.

"I'll give you twenty minutes to clean yourself up and get out. If you can't get out in twenty minutes, you'll have to sleep in the bathroom tonight."

The old man spoke with a cold face, closed the door for her and left.

"How can twenty points be enough? It's a hindrance, Zhuang Zhoucheng..."

Huo Yan became anxious and yelled in the bathroom.

Zhuang Zhoucheng turned a deaf ear and went to the balcony, took the clothes out of the dryer and hung them on the balcony.

The clothes are already dry, but they need to be hung out to dry to dissipate the heat.

Huo Yan came out twenty minutes later. She had taken a shower and brushed her teeth. Her hands and feet no longer hurt. Everything felt better. She approached Zhuang Zhoucheng with her red little face.

"Twenty minutes is not enough. My hair isn't even dry yet."

Zhuang Zhoucheng pinched her face, wiped her with a towel, and blew her with a hair dryer when he was almost done.

"I'll do it myself, you go wash." Huo Yan grabbed the hair dryer and blow-dried it himself.

Zhuang Zhoucheng glanced at her hands, which moved freely. The scars on her arms had already formed scabs, leaving brown streaks. The gauze on her toes was completely wet, indicating that she was starting to recover.

Otherwise, how can she rely on me when it hurts?
