minutes and 14 seconds later.
Yu Duo frantically lifted her head. She couldn’t speak but kept hitting Zhou Wang, her little face flushed red.
Zhou Wang quickly grabbed a bottle of mineral water from under the seat and handed it to her. Yu Duo took it and gulped down several sips before she finally caught her breath.
"You... You big jerk, you must have done it on purpose. You even knew I would choke and prepared the water in advance. All of this was part of your plan, wasn’t it?"
Yu Duo was extrely aggrieved, her gleaming tears almost at the edge of her eyes.
Zhou Wang felt utterly wronged. He admitted he might have half-heartedly gone along with it, but this bottle of water wasn’t sothing he had prepared in advance; it was just in the car!
But he knew very well that he couldn’t argue with Yu Duo at this mont. No matter how insensitive a girl might be, she would surely feel extrely vulnerable in monts like this and think of all sorts of things.
So Zhou Wang just gently hugged Yu Duo and said in an unmistakably serious tone:
"Duoduo, I really like you. Rest assured, I will be good to you."
"Really?"
"Really."
"Then let’s pinky promise?"
"Pinky promise."
"People who lie are little puppies!"
"Little puppies!"
Zhou Wang answered every question without hesitation, and each response was filled with strength.
"Then..."
However, Yu Duo still seed uneasy. She bit her lip and suddenly looked up. "Then kiss ."
"This... I can’t."
Zhou Wang’s expression stiffened, and he quietly refused.
"Then you’re lying to ..."
Yu Duo started to look teary-eyed again.
Unable to bear seeing a woman cry, especially his own woman, Zhou Wang had no choice but to brace himself and give Yu Duo a kiss.
Thankfully, Yu Duo didn’t open her lips for a French kiss or anything like that, which made Zhou Wang breathe a quiet sigh of relief.
Seeing that Zhou Wang wasn’t disgusted with her, Yu Duo smiled again.
But soon, as if she thought of sothing, Yu Duo beca despondent again.
"What’s wrong?"
Zhou Wang, noticing Yu Duo’s change in mood, asked softly.
"I, I just suddenly thought of Sister Ranran..."
And Sister Qianqian.
Yu Duo silently added in her mind.
ntioning this topic, Zhou Wang was taken aback, then he comforted her: "I rember I told you before, that Ranran wouldn’t mind."
Yu Duo didn’t respond, still hanging her head down.
Realizing sothing, Zhou Wang also fell silent for a mont before asking: "Is it sothing you can’t accept yourself?"
Indeed, he only thought Yu Duo might be concerned about Su Yajing’s feelings, but he forgot that although Yu Duo seed naïve, she was also an independent individual.
Sure enough, Yu Duo pouted, her expression full of conflict.
"I, I don’t know... Zhou Wang, I guess I’m not in a position to be jealous, but whenever I think of Sister Ranran, I feel so bad. Yet, it’s obviously who took what belonged to her..."
"What do you an ’belonged to soone’?"
"I rember telling Sister Ranran before, I really longed for that kind of lifelong, two-person love. I said I wanted to find a super handso, super caring guy, and make them all jealous of ..."
Yu Duo seed oblivious to Zhou Wang’s teasing, just speaking to herself:
"I think I’ve found him now, but... this guy doesn’t belong to only . Boohoo, I feel so sad too..."
Zhou Wang responded with silence.
Such matters sotis have no solution. It all depends on how Yu Duo decides to think. No matter how flowery the words, they all sound hollow at tis like this.
Zhou Wang never expected every woman around him to naturally co to terms with such matters.
In fact, if it weren’t for a series of coincidences, coupled with his ’despicable and shaless’ behavior, and the cheating tools provided by the system, perhaps many would have left him already...
Sister, Jiang Qingkui, even Su Yajing... who could genuinely not care at heart?
As they say, they are all living persons.
However, Zhou Wang had no better solution at the mont. The system’s new "Bonds chanism" seed like a way to solve it, but he was still exploring.
Letting Yu Duo cry in his arms for a while, after her emotions cald sowhat, Zhou Wang hesitated slightly before asking:
"Do you ever think about leaving ?"
"I always do, but I can’t bear the thought."
Yu Duo said with a painfully cute face, "I couldn’t bear it before, otherwise, even after saying I wouldn’t contact you, I still couldn’t resist secretly finding out about your affairs. It’s even less possible now; I... I’ve done such things for you. If you don’t want anymore, I, I might just die, right?"
Hearing this, Zhou Wang let out a long breath and hugged Yu Duo tighter.
"I won’t, the things you’re worried about won’t happen, I promise..."
Listening to Zhou Wang’s whispers, Yu Duo didn’t doubt him, but she didn’t ask for another pinky promise either.
After an unknown amount of ti, Yu Duo gently pushed Zhou Wang, "Why hasn’t the power co back on yet? Shouldn’t you ask about it?"
Only then did Zhou Wang realize the electricity had been out for quite a while, though it suited him just fine...
He picked up the walkie-talkie and asked, "Hello, has the power been restored?"
After a few seconds, the voice of a young man ca cautiously through the walkie-talkie, "Uh, Mr. Zhou, should we have restored it already?"
"?"
Zhou Wang was stunned for a mont, then quickly spoke as Yu Duo widened her eyes beside him:
"Hey, don’t say things like that, what do you an ’should have restored it’? It sounds like I was the one ordering you to cut the power..."
