Chapter 754
Chapter 754
I stared at Zhou Hanzhi's back as he left.
Looking at his back as he walked away holding Lin Xixi tightly in his arms, the man was tall and the woman was petite, and they were so close. Just from their backs, one could tell that they were a well-matched and loving couple.
My heart, which had been burning like a raging fire just now, quickly extinguished the flames at this moment. At the same time, I felt an indescribable emptiness, as if my heart had been hollowed out, and the cold wind blew through my entire body.
"Humph, Zhou Hanzhi is a wise guy. If he insists on bringing Lin Xixi in today, Xiaoyuan and I will have a big fight with him!" Xiaoye snorted behind me, then suddenly held my arm with a nervous look, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"
I suddenly came to my senses and realized that I was not standing firmly and almost fell.
Yes, what's wrong with me? Why do I still have emotional fluctuations when interacting with Zhou Hanzhi even though I clearly treat him as a stranger?
Why did my heart feel so cold and empty when I saw him and Lin Xixi hugging each other and leaving? I couldn't stand steadily. If Xiao Ye hadn't held me up in time, I would have fallen.
Is there something I can't let go of about Zhou Hanzhi...
No, there isn't.
There is nothing I can't let go of Zhou Hanzhi. I let him go a long time ago. I don't care at all about how loving and sweet he and Lin Xixi are. I stopped him just now only because I didn't want Lin Xixi and Lin Youde to go in and ruin the banquet, not because I didn't want them to attend together.
I couldn't stand steadily only because my heels were too high, not because I couldn't bear to see the love between Zhou Hanzhi and Lin Xixi!
"I'm fine. I didn't choose the right pair of shoes today. I always feel unsteady and about to fall." I came to my senses and let most of my weight lean on Xiaoye's body. I lowered my head to look at the pair of beautiful high heels on my feet and said softly.
Ono also looked down at the shoes on my feet. After a moment, he suddenly bent down and hugged me around the waist.
"Xiao Ye?" I was caught off guard and startled. I subconsciously put my arms around his neck to keep my balance.
"This pair of shoes is really not good. They are beautiful, but the heels are too high and it is easy to sprain your ankle. I will carry you back and everything will be fine." Ono smiled at me, holding my body steadily while striding into the hall.
His arms were strong and broad, which quickly washed away the coldness and emptiness I had just felt. Leaning in Ono's arms, I felt safe and warm, which quickly washed away the coldness and emptiness I had just felt.
However, Zhang Tingyuan kept nagging behind him: "If the shoes are not good, then change a pair of shoes. There is no need to carry her in so exaggeratedly. There are so many people in there. If you act like this, they will definitely talk about you and jokingly ask you when you will marry my sister. Although my sister is in love with you, we are not interested in her enough and have no plans to marry her off yet... Xiaoye, stop carrying her. Put my sister down and let me carry her!"
Xiao Ye automatically ignored the long paragraph Zhang Tingyuan said earlier, as if he only heard his last sentence. He snorted, "This is my girlfriend. I chased her with my own ability. Of course I have the right to hug her! If you want to hug her, go find a girlfriend yourself. Hug your own girlfriend. Don't even think about hugging my girlfriend!"
Zhang Tingyuan was so angry that his mouth was a little crooked: "What do you mean you got her by your own ability? It was my sister who agreed to be your girlfriend because she felt sorry for you! Hurry up and give my sister to me!"
Xiao Ye continued to not care: "That was also because I used my ability to make my girlfriend pity me. If you have the ability, you can also find a girlfriend by relying on your own pity!"
"Xiao Ye, you are a big scoundrel!"
"I am a scoundrel, I have a girlfriend to hug me, but you don't."
"I...you!"
These two guys are united in front of outsiders and cooperate with each other to attack in a group, but once they relax, they start bickering again.
However, listening to these two guys bickering, I felt much better.
Drawing a line between myself and Zhou Hanzhi was the wisest and most correct decision I made. This man never made me feel happy. He only made me sad, painful, conflicted and miserable.
But Xiaoye, you are my ever-bright and warm little sun, pulling me out of the abyss of pain and sorrow time and time again, letting me bathe in the warmth and happiness of the sun.
It is the soft-hearted sun that saved me.
I looked at Ono's energetic and handsome face, and suddenly I felt an urge in my heart to get closer to him, a little closer.
I silently tightened my arms and closed the distance between me and him.
But at this moment, a laugh was heard: "The young master of the Yuan family usually looks so unreliable. I used to think that this kid only knew how to race cars and go on adventures in the mountains and forests. It turns out that he also has such a delicate and gentle side!"
"That's right. This kid takes after his mother. He's very handsome, better looking than the top stars. But I've never seen him in a relationship. He just hangs out with the boys from the Han and Zhang families. Many girls confessed to him but he ignored them. I almost suspected that he had a problem with his sexual orientation."
"Haha, I know this. At that time, Madam Su made a bet with the eldest lady of the Ming family, betting on whether the young master of the Yuan family liked the boy from the Han family or the boy from the Zhang family. At that time, the total amount of bets placed by both parties exceeded five million!"
"Mrs. Su wants her little girl to marry the young master of the Yuan family, and Miss Ming has her eyes on the young master Yuan. Both parties have not only placed a bet, but are also competing hard, hoping to win both the man and the money."
"The gambling game lasted for more than half a year without a definite result. In the end, the young master of the Yuan family got attached to Miss Meng and they were almost inseparable. Now, no one can win. Both of them were very angry and wanted to see who this Miss Meng was. Until the last time they met at Mrs. Zhang's birthday party, both of them gave up."
"That's right. This Miss Meng is not only stunningly beautiful, but also very capable and graceful. She is as graceful and elegant as any other rich lady. No wonder Young Master Yuan likes her so much. Look at her. He doesn't even want to let her walk the whole way. He has to hold her carefully. He's really afraid that she will melt if he holds her in his mouth, and he's afraid that she will drop if he holds her in his palm."
These low-pitched discussions made my face hot and my heart warm.
I understand Ono's feelings, and I know Ono has done a lot for me, but Ono and I were pretending to be a couple at the beginning, so I didn't pay much attention to Ono's situation. If I hadn't heard the guests' discussions at this moment, I wouldn't have known that these things had happened to Ono.
My heart felt warmer and warmer. Ono was really good to me, and he gave me a unique preference.
At this moment, someone suddenly raised his voice: "It's just a hug, what's there to discuss? Does this count as love?"
