Chapter 130 Shake
Zhu Xia buried her face behind He Lianzhou, closed her eyes, and said nothing. He was on the phone, speaking French, deep and pleasant.
The clear French windows reflected the overlapping figures of the two people. She gently wrapped her arms around his waist and listened to him making a phone call in silence for a while.
Zhu Xia was about to let go of He Lianzhou when he suddenly grabbed her hand and held it tightly, but did not turn around immediately.
Zhu Xia heard him say goodbye to the person on the other end of the phone in French, and then she felt the man she was hugging turned around, took the initiative and hugged her.
A light laugh came from above his head. Zhu Xia looked up and saw the Adam's apple on his neck move.
He Lianzhou held her waist with his big hands, lowered his head, his thin eyelids drooped slightly, and his cold eyes were filled with the silence unique to the night.
"Are you awake, or still sleepwalking?" he asked, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
"I'm possessed by a ghost." Zhu Xia said.
His embrace was extremely warm. When they first made physical contact, his touch had felt hard and hot. She was puzzled as to why their body temperatures were so different when they were all human beings.
Could it be that he popped out of a volcano?
"Have you finished working overtime?" Zhu Xia said in a low voice, buried in his chest.
He Lianzhou said "hmm" and stroked the back of her head with his palm.
"I have an operation tomorrow, you have to take me home tonight." Zhu Xia said softly.
"I'll take you straight to the hospital tomorrow."
Zhu Xia raised her face in his arms, her gaze lingering on his smooth jawline for two seconds, then looked up into his dark eyes.
"Are you afraid that I'll run away tonight?"
He Lianzhou stared at her, and asked in a voice as loud as the sound of jade: "Where do you want to run to?"
The man's expression was calm, and his tone was even, but Zhu Xia felt that his eyes were very cold, like an unfathomable deep ocean.
She didn't say anything.
He Lianzhou doesn't care whether love is restraint or indulgence.
No matter what Zhu Xia wanted, he would give it to her.
All the good things he had, he shared with her.
The above has an important premise: she has to want it.
But now, even if she doesn't want it, she has to take it.
When You Feng called at 1:30 in the morning, Zhu Xia was taking a shower in the bathroom of the Repulse Bay Villa.
It was late, and she went into the shower room to take a shower. The warm water from the shower head sprinkled on her body, and Zhu Xia opened her eyes, letting the mist invade her pupils.
You Feng is right.
A long time ago, she didn't want to fall in love, she wanted to fall in love with He Lianzhou.
There is a kind of feeling in the world where you do something even though you know it is impossible.
This emotion overrides reason.
hard to control.
Zhu Xia blinked, and the water droplets hanging on her eyelashes fell off.
A long-lost feeling of confusion began to arise in my heart.
She began to waver.

He Lianzhou stood on the balcony, smoking a cigar nonchalantly. He looked back in the direction of the bathroom. The master bedroom was very large and well soundproofed, so no sound of water could be heard.
Estimating the time, Zhu Xia was about to come out. He Lianzhou reached for the ashtray, put out the cigarette butt, and then stood on the balcony for a while to enjoy the sea breeze from afar. When the smell of cigarettes had almost dissipated, he walked back to the master bedroom.
There is a Windsor Castle-style dressing table in the bedroom, which was specially arranged by He Lianzhou when Zhu Xia stayed for one night many years ago. Before her, he, a single man, did not need these things in his room.
At this moment, the phone screen on the precious wood table lit up. He Lianzhou glanced at it casually and saw that the caller ID was [You Feng].
You Feng asked on the phone: "Xia Zi, where are you? Are you back? Do you want more snacks?"
He Lianzhou looked in the direction of the bathroom and said, "She's taking a shower."
The tone was calm, and no emotion could be heard. But it was also intimidating.
You Feng suddenly fell silent on the phone.
"Boss He, long time no see." You Feng said, restraining his lazy tone and appearing serious and indifferent.
They haven't been together for long, but they've occasionally run into each other at dinner parties in the UK over the years.
"I was just worried whether Zhu Xia had returned to the hospital to work overtime again." You Feng said lazily, "I feel relieved that you are here."
"Don't worry too much about other people's girlfriends." He Lianzhou said in a cold and nonchalant voice, "Especially late at night."
"If you have this time, you might as well take care of your ex-wife."
You Feng: “…”
Why are these two people always hurting people's hearts and lungs?
He talked about his ex-wife all the time, as if he was afraid that he didn't know.
After taking a shower, Zhu Xia wrapped a dry hair towel on her head and wore a lavender silk nightgown. She saw He Lianzhou holding her cell phone and answering the call.
Zhu Xia: “?”
He Lianzhou saw her and returned the phone to her.
Zhu Xia picked up the phone and found it was You Feng. She wanted to turn around and walk to the balcony, but He Lianzhou grabbed her wrist and pulled her to sit down in He Lianzhou's arms.
Zhu Xia was still a little confused. You Feng on the other end of the phone said, "I rang your door three times in the middle of the night, and you went off to hang out with Boss He."
The man holding her put his arms around her waist, his breath faintly falling on her skin. Zhu Xia was worried that He Lianzhou might have heard something, so she quickly said, "You sound like you're leaving a will."
The old father had nothing to do so he abused his daughter.
"You should find a job," Zhu Xia said. "Go back to your old job and open a bar in the harbor."
"You're already disliking your family before you even get married." You Feng said nonchalantly, "I won't disturb your world of two. I'm hanging up now."
"..."
He Lianzhou must have heard it all.
Zhu Xia looked back at him and pretended to be calm and asked, "Aren't you going to take a shower?"
He Lianzhou entered the bathroom, the door... Zhu Xia sat at the dressing table and took a look, the door was not closed. She patted her face with her palm, forcing herself not to imagine messy things.
He Lianzhou took a shower, changed into pajamas, short-sleeved shirt and long pants, and came back after drying his hair. Zhu Xia knelt on the bed, holding a pillow in her hands. The bedding was dark in color, which made the girl's skin glow white.
Zhu Xia initially wanted to tell him that she could sleep in the guest room, but the moment their eyes met, she knew that was impossible.
This man was very strong. Before she could run out of the room, he carried her back.
He Lianzhou turned off the lights, leaving a dim table lamp on the bedside.
The bed was very big. Zhu Xia was lying on the side near the floor-to-ceiling window. As soon as she closed her eyes, a strong and powerful arm reached out and brought her into the man's warm arms.
Maybe because she had a good sleep, Zhu Xia was not sleepy now. She opened her eyes and said, "He Lianzhou, let me play with your phone."
Her phone was charging and she didn't want to unplug it.
"What's the password?" Zhu Xia took the man's phone and asked in a low voice.
"Same as yours." He Lianzhou said.
Same as hers…that would be her birthday.
Zhu Xia input 0621, and the lock screen really opened. She didn't click on any app, but stared at the phone screen with her big eyes open, not blinking.
The background is the library of my alma mater, on which hang three oversized flags that are only raised during graduation season.
And the girl with her back to the camera was one she was very familiar with.
