Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

Chapter 520 The Blind Girl Bound by Gratitude (13)

Mu Zhou slowly moved away from the man's chest, and suddenly her whole body trembled.

Even breathing became heavy.

Those unfocused eyes widened, trying hard to see the person in front of them clearly.

Fu Hanji looked down at her, his expression frighteningly calm.

He opened the conversation on purpose.

He didn't want to be a stand-in and be mistaken for someone else.

He thought that this stolen time, even just a moment of tenderness, would be enough to soothe his dark feelings.

But now that he has such a beautiful woman in his arms, he is no longer satisfied.

Why can't it be him?

He wanted Mu Zhou to know who had kissed her.

Fu Hanji stared intently at her, his eyes filled with both madness and calmness.

At this moment, Mu Zhou's lips still had a few glistening drops of moisture remaining.

That's what he left behind.

He still had one hand around Mu Zhou's waist to prevent her from falling in her excitement.

Mu Zhou tremblingly stretched out a hand and slowly placed it on his cheek, trying to trace the man in front of him with his fingertips to confirm his identity.

Fu Hanji grabbed her hand and held her small hand in his palm.

"it's me."

His voice, after drinking, had a slightly languid quality, quite different from his usual cool and aloof tone.

But Mu Zhou still recognized who he was.

Her voice trembled, her lips parted slightly, and she whispered his name:

"Fu Hanji".

"Ah."

He answered seriously.

It was as if a huge boulder hanging overhead had finally crashed down, leaving Mu Zhou completely exhausted and almost collapsing into his arms.

Her mind was a mess, and her face showed confusion and panic.

Fu Hanji felt a dull ache in his heart.

He felt sorry for Mu Zhou's shock at that moment, so much so that he wanted to hold her in his arms and kiss her.

Yet she still stubbornly insisted that she had to face it.

He shouldn't be the only one trapped in the swamp of desire.

When Fu Hanji left Mu Zhou's house, there was a red handprint on his left cheek.

He stayed outside the door for a long time, until dawn before leaving.

But a short while later, he reappeared in front of Mu Zhou's door carrying breakfast.

He waited for a long time until he heard a sound from inside the house before pressing the doorbell again.

The person inside became much more alert and did not open the door directly as they had the previous night.

"It's me, I bought you breakfast."

A low, husky voice, typical of someone who's stayed up all night, sounded from outside the door. Mu Zhou hesitated for a long time before finally opening the door.

Her eyes were bluish, clearly indicating she hadn't slept well.

Fu Hanji knew he couldn't push her too hard, so he simply stuffed the breakfast into her hands and remained standing outside the door.

"Don't stop eating just because you're angry with me."

Not sleeping all night didn't make him feel particularly down; in fact, there was a faint glimmer in his eyes.

At this moment, he was definitely not in a bad mood.

However, Mu Zhou could not see any of these things.

Before leaving, he looked at Mu Zhou's still slightly swollen lips and apologized again for his recklessness the night before:

"sorry."

Mu Zhou held the breakfast bag in her hand, not wanting to say a word to him.

Fu Hanji naturally knew that she was angry with him, so he didn't force her to do anything.

The door was slammed shut, and he went back downstairs.

Fu Hanji looked at the rising sun on the horizon and a smile appeared on his lips.

It doesn't seem too bad.

Lan Ze called Mu Zhou several more times, but unfortunately, he couldn't get through.

He finally returned three days later.

But when he returned home, he found the bedroom empty and a divorce agreement on the table.

He never expected that Mu Zhou actually wanted to divorce him.

After failing to contact Mu Zhou anywhere, he finally found Mu Zhou's house.

The two sat down once again for a more open and honest discussion.

"Divorce is not a trivial matter. I hope you can think it through carefully. If you have any complaints about me, you can tell me."

"useless."

Mu Zhou stopped him from continuing.

“You can’t change. You are a person who loves academics. Nothing else can come before you. You are also suited to find someone who shares your interests and loves academic experiments as much as you do.”

Compared to the last time this topic was discussed, Mu Zhou was noticeably calmer this time.

Lan Ze has been working overtime until the early hours of the morning every day, and then rushes back immediately after finishing. He looks a bit haggard now.

He looked at Mu Zhou, suddenly unsure of what to say.

Lanze admitted that he really couldn't imagine having his work scheduled for the back of the schedule.

Mu Zhou is right.

But he really couldn't just let go like that.

Seeing that his attitude had softened, Mu Zhou said again:

“I know you married me only to repay a debt of gratitude. Now that the debt has been repaid and my long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, we are even now.”

Lan Ze shook his head subconsciously.

He could only tell Mu Zhou to think about it some more.

But Mu Zhou said:

"Tomorrow is Thursday, come pick me up at nine in the morning, and we'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau."

Her sudden assertiveness caught Lan Ze off guard, and he fled Mu Zhou's house in a disheveled state.

After a night of reflection, I was much calmer when I received Mu Zhou's call in the morning.

Yang Xue called me last night.

Because he didn't return to the lab after his business trip, but came directly to find Mu Zhou, there were many things waiting for him to sign and confirm.

When Yang Xue mentioned Mu Zhou and asked if he had brought Mu Zhou a gift, he was stunned.

"Director, City A is famous for its pearls, which are world-renowned. Several of my colleagues who went on business trips brought pearls back for themselves or their wives and families. Didn't you buy your wife a pearl necklace too?"

Upon learning that Lan Ze hadn't actually bought it, Yang Xue muttered a complaint under her breath.

"It's really not easy for someone like you to be able to get married, especially a wife who loves you with her life."

Lan Ze spoke subconsciously:

"It will be gone soon."

He told him that Mu Zhou wanted to divorce him.

Yang Xue was somewhat exasperated with him, and for the first time forgot his identity and began to analyze things for him.

After Yang Xue's analysis, Lan Ze seemed to understand but not quite.

He seemed to understand that what Mu Zhou cared about was that he was only marrying her to repay a debt of gratitude and had no feelings for her.

But how could there be no feelings?

After spending more than a decade together, his feelings for Mu Zhou had already taken root and grown silently.

Before he even realized it, it had already taken root, sprouted, and grown into a towering tree.

Perhaps, they made a mistake in their beginning, which is why Mu Zhou feels so insecure.

So he agreed to Mu Zhou's request for a divorce.

They can start over.

This time, he will learn to have a proper relationship with Mu Zhou, just like an ordinary man.

*

Outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, Lan Ze stared at the divorce certificates in the hands of the two people, feeling breathless.

He thought he could take the divorce in stride.

Anyway, they'll remarry eventually.

But looking at those three words, a feeling of heartache still welled up inside me.

He pursed his lips, calmed his breathing, and said to Mu Zhou as calmly as possible:

"Even if we're divorced, I'll still be your Lanze-ge. I was wrong in the past, so please don't reject my advances in the future. If anything happens, please contact me immediately, okay?"

His words were somewhat unexpected for Mu Zhou.

He can actually be quite eloquent.

She didn't refute, she just nodded.

So the two of them went out for lunch together.

Unexpectedly, she ran into Fu Hanji at the restaurant.
