Chapter 848: Chapter 350 Zheng Yanyan: Crossing the Ocean to See You_2
It seed Yang Lirong was serious; she even started pulling out her phone to browse photos.
Zhou Yuwen was driving at the mont and naturally didn’t want to look.
But then he heard Yang Lirong say, “This one is the granddaughter of the forr mayor. She’s attending university in the city now. She found out about you and seed quite interested. Why don’t you add her on WeChat and chat for a bit?”
Zhou Yuwen said, “Mom, I have a girlfriend.”
“I would never do anything to betray my girlfriend.”
“Mom, since when did you beco so materialistic?”
With just a few sentences, Yang Lirong was left speechless.
When Zhou Yuwen pulled the car up to their house, he got out to carry the jars of pickled vegetables for his mother. Before stepping out, he couldn’t resist saying, “Mom, I never thought you’d be like this. You’ve really let down.”
This statent truly made his mother feel a pang of guilt.
However, the feeling of guilt didn’t last long.
“Zhou Yuwen?”
A familiar voice called from behind.
Yang Lirong turned to look.
In the distance, remnants of snow hadn’t completely lted.
To be honest, the alleyway of these self-built houses was a bit chaotic.
And in this disordered scene of wind and snow,
there stood a tall and striking beauty.
With her jet-black, glossy hair, a fitted wool coat, paired with slim-fitting pants and long boots—the girl, already tall, looked even more statuesque in her boots.
What a stunning girl!
Yang Lirong couldn’t help but praise her inwardly.
As for Zhou Yuwen, who had his back to the voice, just hearing it made him feel dood.
He reluctantly turned his head.
At this mont,
the two forr lovers t again.
Zheng Yanyan’s eyes imdiately welled with tears.
Without thinking, she ran straight into Zhou Yuwen’s embrace, right in front of Yang Lirong.
At that mont, she truly cried. For a young woman to travel thousands of miles to an unfamiliar place, then take a taxi to what seed like a slum—it wasn’t easy.
To be honest, when the taxi dropped her off, she had felt a bit regretful.
Because she was entirely unfamiliar with this place, standing there all alone.
The locals were all long-ti residents of this area, and when a stranger suddenly appeared, they couldn’t help but glance at her as they passed by.
Those unfamiliar gazes filled Zheng Yanyan with unease.
She was genuinely starting to regret it.
Just as she was about to leave,
a familiar car suddenly appeared in front of her.
She followed the car here.
The mont she flung herself into Zhou Yuwen’s arms, all her grievances disappeared. She even wiped her tears on Zhou Yuwen’s shoulder, saying desperately, “I—I thought I got the wrong place!”
Faced with such an emotional ex-girlfriend,
and under the shocked and perplexed gaze of his mother, Zhou Yuwen could only helplessly pat Zheng Yanyan on the shoulder and softly say, “It’s okay, as long as you’re here.”
This wasn’t the place to talk. Whatever needed to be said could be said inside.
Luckily, Zhou Yuwen’s ho wasn’t as rundown as Zheng Yanyan had feared. In fact, the interior was decently furnished, almost like a small villa despite being a self-built house.
Zheng Yanyan sat on the living room sofa, looking a bit unsettled.
Yang Lirong handed her a cup of hot tea to warm up.
In response, Zheng Yanyan stood up and thanked her specifically.
Yang Lirong spoke kindly, “Oh, it’s no trouble at all. Please, sit down.”
Despite her words, Zheng Yanyan still felt quite constrained. After all, this was Zhou Yuwen’s mother.
When Yang Lirong learned that Zheng Yanyan was from the Capital City, her interest was piqued, and she enthusiastically struck up a conversation with her.
anwhile, Zhou Yuwen stepped away to call Su Qing, saying, “Don’t bother looking for her. Yanyan is at my house right now.”
“She’s at your house!?” Su Qing imdiately frowned. “What is she doing there?”
“It’s complicated. Just head ho, and I’ll take care of it.”
Though Zhou Yuwen said that, he wasn’t quite sure how to handle the situation.
He glanced back at his mother and Zheng Yanyan.
It was truly odd how his mother had suddenly beco so warm.
She was even smiling.
Zhou Yuwen muttered to himself that this wasn’t good and quickly walked over to ask, “What are you two chatting about that’s so amusing?”
Before Zheng Yanyan could respond,
Yang Lirong smiled and said, “You know, Yanyan’s such a lovely girl. Why haven’t you ntioned her before?”
“…”
Zhou Yuwen said, “Fine.”
“Mom, Yanyan’s been traveling all the way from the Capital City. She’s probably tired. I’ll take her to a hotel so she can get so proper rest.” With that, he started pushing Zheng Yanyan’s suitcase, intending to walk her out.
But Yang Lirong grabbed the suitcase and said, “What hotel? We’ve got so many rooms here. Isn’t that enough?”
Zhou Yuwen responded, “Yanyan’s a big-city girl. You expect her to stay in this rundown house? I’ll take her to a hotel.”
Yang Lirong was displeased. “How is this a rundown house? Your cousin-in-law is from Singapore, and she stayed here just fine. Don’t talk nonsense. Let Yanyan decide.”
Hearing this, Zhou Yuwen smirked. “Fine. Yanyan, you tell her.”
Zheng Yanyan, sitting on the sofa, first glanced at Yang Lirong before turning to look at Zhou Yuwen. She sighed softly and asked, “If I stay at a hotel…”
“…Will you co and stay with tonight?”
“…”
Yang Lirong’s expression was curious—she looked like she wanted to laugh but held back, her face caught in an amused, slightly stern expression, all while exuding a nosy, gossipy vibe. Truly, it was a complex look.
She just stared at her son, waiting to see his reaction.
Zhou Yuwen, under his mother’s gaze, felt flustered.
“Alright, alright. Stay at my place then!”
Hearing this, Zheng Yanyan imdiately lit up and clung to his arm excitedly.
Well, there it was—the cold and aloof queen had turned into a clingy little darling!
What could she do? Zhou Yuwen was the only person she knew here.
Luckily, the room that used to belong to Lu Wanting had been tidied up a while back. It was still clean, making it just right for Zheng Yanyan to stay in for a few days.
Zhou Yuwen led Zheng Yanyan into the room and started setting up the bed for her.
The air conditioner in the room was newly installed and worked well for heating.
The blankets, though, were bought back when Lu Wanting was still staying here and had only been used a few tis. They could suffice for now, though he doubted Zheng Yanyan would be comfortable with them.
“Later tonight, I’ll take you out to buy a new blanket,” Zhou Yuwen said while busying himself with the setup, his back to Zheng Yanyan.
Zheng Yanyan quietly watched his broad back.
For reasons she couldn’t explain, her eyes reddened again.
Without thinking, she suddenly hugged Zhou Yuwen’s waist from behind.
She pressed her cheek against his back and softly murmured, “Hubby, I missed you so much!”
With such soft warmth in his arms, while troubleso, the feelings were undeniably real.
Zhou Yuwen could only sigh and comfort her with a bitter smile, “I missed you too.”
Then Zheng Yanyan began to feel her way across his body. She turned him around and leaned in for a kiss. Finally, Zhou Yuwen couldn’t resist and blurted out, “Baby.”
“Hm?” Zheng Yanyan blinked curiously, her eyes wide open.
Zhou Yuwen said, “Next ti, at least let know before you co…”
Of course, Zheng Yanyan heard the underlying aning in his words, and it sowhat ruined the mood. She imdiately looked aggrieved and asked, “You didn’t want to co?”
Her voice sounded on the verge of tears as she spoke.
Zhou Yuwen said, “It’s not that I didn’t want you to co, but I wasn’t prepared for it. Baby, don’t cry. Since when did you beco so weepy?”
In the blink of an eye, Zheng Yanyan’s tears started falling again.
This left Zhou Yuwen in a panic. He hastily started wiping her tears while speaking softly to comfort her.
Zheng Yanyan, truly feeling wronged, sobbed, “I spent so long on the train, and I even had to transfer midway. Then, when I took the taxi just now, the driver looked so scary. He even asked why I was here, and I was too scared to answer.”
“And after all that effort to see you…”
“You said I didn’t tell you.”
“So you just don’t want to co, huh?” Zheng Yanyan pouted, her words flowing out in rapid succession.
Zhou Yuwen felt helpless and could only gently cup her cheek, saying, “Alright, alright. Don’t cry, baby.”
“Fine, fine. It’s my fault, okay?”
