I looked into Zhou Minghe's eyes. They seemed calmer, without the panic and embarrassment he had just had when he saw Zhou Ci.

But my heart couldn't calm down for a long time, because I saw Zhou Ci again.

The love that is stirring in my heart is no longer love, but a very distant emotion. The reunion should be joyful, but I feel sad.

Zhou Minghe touched my chin with his hot fingertips and gently lifted it up: "Why do you look so absent-minded?"

I shuddered slightly and immediately opened his fingers, denying, "No, I just..."

Zhou Minghe didn't wait for me to say anything, and his fingers once again pinched my chin forcefully. This time, he trapped me in the corner and kissed me forcefully on the lips.

I was frightened by his action and quickly pushed him away. Zhou Minghe was not angry, but just chuckled: "Don't tell me that you are still moved when you see my uncle?"

"You're not even a fool." My emotions were instantly wiped out by his bold kiss just now. After glaring at him, I turned around and planned to check the baby's diapers again.

Zhou Minghe was still following closely behind him.

I was afraid of meeting Zhou Ci and the others again, so I quickly threw the things I wanted to buy on the cart and pushed it over to pay.

"I'll do it!" Zhou Minghe stepped forward.

"No, I'll do it." I immediately pushed him away: "You've already given gifts to the children today."

Seeing my determined look, Zhou Minghe had no choice but to stop competing with me and took two steps back.

After finishing shopping, I carried the bags downstairs and said, "Let's ask Auntie to go to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables. We won't go to the supermarket."

I told Zhou Minghe in the elevator that I was really worried about meeting Zhou Ci again.

Zhou Minghe agreed.

In the underground parking lot, we put our things in the car. Suddenly, Zhou Minghe received a call. He took a look and said to me, "Wait for me in the car. I have a call. It may take some time."

I nodded, opened the car door and got in.

Zhou Minghe walked towards the brighter elevator entrance to answer the phone.

I leaned against the car and looked at his slender figure.

He was talking facing the car. When the back door was open, the lights inside the car were on and he could see me sitting in the car.

He looked very serious when he spoke, but there was a hint of affection in his eyes when he looked at me. This contrast appeared on his handsome face, and I actually found him very charming.

Just as I was boldly and wantonly admiring his handsome appearance, the elevator door behind him suddenly opened.

The people who came out scared me. I saw Zhou Ci carrying things, He Lin holding their daughter and kissing her little face. It seemed that the family of three was planning to leave.

I almost instinctively bent down and curled up in the back seat.

Zhou Minghe's call seemed to be interrupted as well. He was holding the phone and talking to Zhou Ci.

"Uncle, aunt, Yueyue." Zhou Minghe seems to have always been good at handling interpersonal relationships.

He Lin was obviously on good terms with Zhou Minghe. She was a little surprised: "Xiao He, why are you here? Are you alone?"

Zhou Minghe smiled and replied, "No, I have another friend."

Zhou Ci's voice rang out: "He Lin, let's go back first. Don't you have a banquet for your friends tonight?"

He Lin smiled and said, "Oh, I almost forgot. Xiao He, come over and play with me tonight."

"No, I'm a bit busy lately." Zhou Minghe said, then asked, "How long do you plan to stay in Shanghai?"

"We'll leave in two days." Zhou Ci said.

He Lin said in a coquettish tone: "Husband, I want to stay for a few more days. I also want to visit Xiao He's famous company."

Zhou Ci seemed to be in a dilemma, and Zhou Minghe also smiled and said, "If you want to come, just call me in advance."

"Oh, by the way, I heard from your mom last time that you had a girlfriend abroad. Did she go back to Shanghai with you?" He Lin looked curious.

Zhou Ci immediately rushed to say, "He Lin, don't worry about Xiao He's affairs."

Zhou Minghe said lazily, "Auntie is quite well-informed."

Perhaps because Zhou Minghe didn't give a direct answer, He Lin, who was also a smart person, immediately smiled and changed the subject: "If it's convenient, you can also bring your friends to play at home."

After saying that, the three of them walked in the other direction.

Zhou Minghe walked quickly to the side of the car and saw me hiding under the seat. He sighed, sat in the driver's seat, and reached out to me: "Get up."

I then slowly sat back in my seat, Zhou Minghe started the car and quickly left the parking lot.

"Jingjing, do you feel that hiding from He Lin like this is not a solution?" Zhou Minghe said to me while controlling the steering wheel.

My heartbeat quickened, and I turned to look at him. "I think I should hide as long as I can. I have a private matter with her."

"Don't worry, I'm here, she won't dare to do anything to you." Zhou Minghe seemed to be comforting me.

"I'm sorry, did I make things difficult for you?" I lowered my eyes and blamed myself.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? We've just started. You haven't heard of those ridiculous things happening in the wealthy circle." Zhou Minghe said with an expression of disapproval.

“For example…” I immediately became curious.

"The daughter-in-law gave birth to her father-in-law's child, the husband raised the child, and the mother-in-law took care of him during the confinement period. So guess, in the end, what will the child call them?" Zhou Minghe suddenly and quickly said an example that shattered my three views and shocked my five senses.

"That's impossible." I immediately retorted, "How could it be this chaotic?"

Zhou Minghe raised his eyebrows: "What if I say this is true?"

I was speechless for a moment. Zhou Minghe doesn't seem like a gossip lover. The gossip that he can remember is most likely true.

I was silenced by him for a moment.

Zhou Minghe then laughed in amusement: "Well, just live happily, why do you care about other people's lives? You and your uncle have already moved on. If He Lin still jumps out to get jealous of you at this time, she is asking for trouble."

I pursed my lips and smiled: "I didn't expect that you are quite good at comforting people."

"I just don't want to see you panic like you did just now." Zhou Minghe looked at me distressedly: "When my uncle showed up, you lost your mind. I thought your love for him had rekindled."

I instantly blushed with anger: "Why do you think of me like that?"

Zhou Minghe put one hand on the car door, his expression showing a hint of insecurity: "Because compared to my uncle, he is obviously more popular with women."

I was stunned. Zhou Minghe, would actually be unconfident in front of Zhou Ci?
