Marriage First, True Love Later Novel

209 Back to the Zhou family

Zhou Han’s Hangover Tea was really good. After drinking it in the morning, although the headache caused by The Hangover wasn’t completely cured and still felt a little heavy, it was much better than when she had just gotten up in the morning.

This morning, Lin Li had been avoiding Zhou han, intentionally or otherwise. If it wasn’t necessary, she would never appear in his sight.

In fact, Lin Li knew that she was being too pretentious, but she still couldn’t let go of Zhou han and was a little embarrassed to face him like before.

Lin Li was worried about how to face him when she went back home at night. When she thought about how there would only be Zhou han and her at home at night, Lin Li couldn’t help but feel a little troubled.

She randomly clicked on the city Forum and found that the post posted in the early morning yesterday had been deleted. In addition, the post was replaced by an announcement from the Public Security Department. The announcement simply explained that the man in the video was not su Yicheng and that the video had been identified by an expert PS a photoshopped product. As for the matter of someone deliberately posting to defame a government official, the Public Security Department would investigate the matter PS soon PS possible, and the person behind the scenes who posted and planned it would be held legally responsible.

Although the post about ‘the mayor’s nude photo’ on the forum had been deleted, the topic and attention on this post did not decrease at all. There were still a large number of netizens discussing it. It was not only limited to Jiang city, but netizens from all over the country were also very concerned about this matter.

Lin Li even saw photos online of reporters standing guard outside su Yicheng’s house. She was a little worried about Anran, so she picked up the phone on the table and called Anran. The call went through very quickly, and Anran picked it up after a few rings.

Before Anran could speak, Lin Li asked anxiously, ” Hello, Anran. Are you home now? ”

“No, I’m at my mother-in-law’s.” Anran replied. Hearing her anxious tone, she asked, ” “What’s wrong?” Anran had fainted in the military compound while she was pregnant. Su Yicheng, father su, and mother su couldn’t possibly let the things happening outside affect her, so she had no idea how the rumors about the nude photo scandal had spread.

Lin Li had originally been worried that Anran’s life would be affected by this, but now that she heard her tone, as if nothing had happened, she was relieved. She only said, ” it’s okay. I was just asking. I was afraid that you would be affected.

Anran chuckled on the other end of the phone and comforted her, ” “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Lin Li nodded. She wanted to say something, but when she turned around inadvertently, she saw that Zhou han was already in her arms, staring at her computer screen with burning eyes.

She glanced at the computer and saw that the screen was full of discussions about yesterday’s posts. Looking at his gloomy face, she thought that the content must have provoked him again. He didn’t say anything more to Anran. After a few words, he hung up the phone.

After ending the call, he placed the phone in his hand on the table at the side and stood up. He used his body to block the computer screen and looked at Zhou han, saying, ” “General manager, what’s the matter?”

Zhou Han’s gaze slowly retracted and moved up to look at her face. He had been working the whole morning, but he remembered that a certain someone had been avoiding him the entire morning because of yesterday’s incident. So when he was almost done with his work, he decided to find some fun for himself and tease a certain someone who was pretentious and awkward. But now ...

Zhou han came back to his senses and handed the document in his hand to her directly. He said with a serious expression and a stern tone, ” “Did you insist on coming to work early just to slack off?” He had found an outlet for the inexplicable anger in his heart.

I ... Lin Li looked at him. She wanted to refute him, but she also understood his feelings.

Zhou han looked at her and said coldly, ” “Next time, don’t let me see you doing things that are not related to work.” With that, he turned around and went straight into the office.

Lin Li gestured a few times at his back, pursed her lips, and sat back down with the documents. She stared at the web page displayed on the screen and directly clicked on the Red Cross on the upper right corner with the mouse.

When it was almost time to get off work, Lin Li’s phone rang just as she was packing up the things on the table. It was a call from the institution’s compound. Lin Li put the documents in her hand aside and reached out to pick it up. The call was from mother Zhou. She thought that father Lin and mother Lin were still around, so she called to ask the Vietnamese in-laws to come to the compound for a meal that night. She didn’t expect the two to go back early the next morning after their meal.

Aiya, why didn’t you let them stay in Jiang city for a while longer? ” Mother Zhou said with some regret on the other side of the phone.

Lin Li chuckled and felt warm in her heart. She could truly feel her enthusiasm for her parents. It wasn’t just for show. She was sincere in wanting to make them stay. She felt a little fortunate in her heart. No matter what happened between her and Zhou han, at least her parents didn’t need to look at other people’s eyes when they came to Jiang city. That was enough.

Lin Li held her phone and said to mother Zhou with a smile, ” they weren’t used to living here. They said that they had neighbors in their hometown who could visit them. They talked and laughed for a whole day, and they didn’t know how fast time passed. It was dark in a short while.

Upon hearing this, mother Zhou on the other side of the phone also sighed a little and said, ” that’s true. After staying in one place for a long time, I’m used to everything. When I first came to Jiang city with your father, I was also not used to it. I didn’t know anyone and I was unfamiliar with the place and people when I wanted to go out. In the beginning, I always argued with your father about going back. Later, I got pregnant with Zhou han and slowly got used to it.

Lin Li listened with a smile on her face.

Xiao Li, it’s really hard on you to be so far away from home in Jiang city after you married Zhou han. For this reason, mother Zhou always felt that she owed Lin Li because she had been through it. She had experienced the feeling of missing her family and parents.

“Uh, no, no,” Lin Li said a little awkwardly. She inexplicably thought of last night, and then her face suddenly turned a little red unnaturally.

but don’t worry. If Zhou han bullies you in the future, you can tell me. I’ll make the decision for you. I won’t side with him. I’ll side with you. Mother Zhou said confidently on the other end of the phone.

“Hehe, sure.” Lin Li smiled and nodded. She thought of her little friend Zhou Jiabin. She hadn’t seen him for two days and still missed him. She didn’t know if the injury on his hand had recovered. Suddenly, she remembered that there was a child at home tonight, so she and Zhou han wouldn’t be too embarrassed. She quickly said, ” “Mom, I’ll go pick up Xiao bin tonight.”

let’s not talk about picking up the child or not. You and Zhou han have to come home for dinner tonight. Auntie and I have prepared a lot of food. We originally wanted to invite our in-laws to come over, but we didn’t expect that we would have already gone back. Alright, if you go back, you two will be responsible for eating all these food tonight. I won’t allow you to leave any behind. Mother Zhou said on the phone.

Lin Li chuckled and nodded. okay, I got it.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Li realized that the most depressing problem was whether she should go with Zhou han later. Let’s go together. It was a long journey and the two of them felt awkward just thinking about it while sitting in the car. If we don’t go together, I’m afraid mother Zhou will overthink.

As she thought about it, the smile on Lin Li’s face collapsed.

While Lin Li was still struggling to decide whether she should leave first and come up with an excuse to avoid mother Zhou or wait for Zhou han to go back with her, the door of Zhou Han’s office behind her opened. Zhou han had already packed his things and came out with his briefcase. He looked at Lin Li, who was sitting in her seat, and said, ” “Let’s go. Mother just called me and told us to return to the institution’s compound tonight.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Li could only nod. She took her bag and followed him into the elevator.

Ever since Zhou han caught her slacking off at work in the afternoon, he had been acting weird. He was gloomy and did not smile at all. Lin Li naturally knew why he was like this, but she was still a little afraid. She still couldn’t let go of that Madam Ling LAN.

She understood this kind of thing. She had already said what she needed to say. He couldn’t let it go and didn’t mean to say more. However, she was happy to be free with his enigmatic tone. If it were like this morning, she might be embarrassed all the way to her grandmother’s house.

Lin Li held her chin and turned to look at the scenery along the road outside. Zhou han, who was at the side, was focused on the road ahead. His brows were slightly furrowed. The atmosphere in the entire car was a little strange and harmonious.

The car slowly stopped in front of the Zhou family’s courtyard. Zhou han parked the car by the side of the road and then turned off the engine. Lin Li directly opened the door and got out of the car. Then, she didn’t wait for him and went straight into the courtyard. Along the way, the two of them almost didn’t say a word.

When Lin Li entered the house, Zhou Jiabin was sitting in the living room, stacking his building blocks. Although his hands were still wrapped in white gauze, they looked much more flexible than before. It seemed that he had recovered better.

Mother Zhou was originally sitting by the side with her grandson, playing with building blocks. When she saw Lin Li come in, she quickly stood up with a smile. Xiao Li, come and help me. As she said that, she looked around again but did not see Zhou han. eh, didn’t ah han come with you? ”

Upon hearing this, Lin Li also turned her head and looked at the door. Zhou han didn’t seem to have followed.

She patted mother Zhou’s hand and said, we came together. He’s parking his car outside. I’m going to take a look. With that, he turned around and left.

Zhou han parked his car at the door but didn’t get out of the car. He just sat in the car and was smoking a cigarette.

Lin Li furrowed her brows and reached out to cover her nose. She walked toward him. Her nose was a little sensitive and couldn’t stand the smell of smoke.

Even if it was blocked, it still couldn’t completely block out the smell of smoke. After inhaling a little, Lin Li couldn’t help but cough. cough, cough ... Weren’t you very powerful when you criticized me? why can’t you figure it out when it’s your turn? cough, cough ...

Upon hearing that, Zhou han looked up at her, then retracted his gaze. He raised his hand and took a deep breath, exhaling white smoke that slowly dissipated in the air.

Lin Li’s cough was a little uncomfortable, so she didn’t say anything more. She turned around and went back into the courtyard.
