"What did you do to her! Do you know she is pregnant?"
Gu Shen didn't expect to be suddenly slapped by Jiang Tan, but Zhou Yinghuai's status was there. Even though he didn't know it clearly, he also knew that he was far from the one to provoke him.
"Miss Jiang." Gu Shen smiled suppressedly and said in a forced voice: "Why do you have to be so angry! Ye Mu is my wife, how could I hit her? Is there any misunderstanding?"
Jiang Tan lifted up Ye Mu's sleeves, revealing the scars on them, "Do you dare to say that these injuries have nothing to do with you?"
"Wasn't she like this before? She didn't become like this after meeting me."
Gu Shen retorted confidently, paused, and murmured in a low voice: "Miss Jiang, I know you care about Ye Mu, but you can't throw dirty water on me!"
Jiang Tan too understood what Ye Mu's expression meant now, it was clearly just patience. As for those injuries, anyone with a discerning eye can see that they are definitely not old injuries.
Jiang Tan felt as if there was a ball of cotton stuck in his throat, and there was a feeling of breathlessness and suffocation.
Her face tightened, and she gritted her teeth and said, "You mean, I framed you? Ye Mu, let me ask you, did he hit you?"
Ye Mu kept his head lowered. At this moment, he finally couldn't help it, and his eyes were wet with tears. "Tantan, please go and leave me alone."
She didn't say anything, but Jiang Tan understood everything.
"How dare he hit you? You have done so much for him before!" Jiang Tan was furious.
"It's all my fault, Tantan, please leave me alone." Ye Mu had long since lost the face to go to Jiang Tan. No matter how difficult these days were, she never thought of bothering Jiang Tan again, "It's all me." I will accept the path I choose, Tantan, please leave me alone."
Jiang Tan's rationality told Jiang Tan that she really shouldn't care about it. She couldn't control these things at all.
But her heart still ached, and there was an indescribable pain that made her couldn't help but whisper: "Ye Mu, is it worth it for such a man?"
The light was lonely, and Ye Mu watched her cry with a sad smile on his face: "I chose it, and I don't regret it."
Jiang Tan watched Ye Mu take Gu Shen's hand in the night and leave with his back turned.
She left quickly and never looked back.
Zhou Yinghuai had been silent until now. He took Jiang Tan's hand that had just slapped Gu Shen and said softly: "Does your hand hurt?"
Jiang Tan shook his head and said it didn't hurt. He was silent for a long time and then said, "Zhou Yinghuai, I never thought she would live like this."
"Everything is destined, Tan Tan, we must learn to accept the cause and effect of others." Zhou Yinghuai held her hand, his eyebrows were elegant and gentle: "It's already very late, let's go home, okay?"
Jiang Tan nodded and said yes, his voice low and hoarse.
Zhou Yinghuai took her hand and walked on the road with lights and shadows of trees.
Zhou Yinghuai said: "You don't have to be sad, you have done enough for her, but Tan Tan, no one can help anyone for a lifetime, unless..."
Jiang Tan was curious and asked, "Unless what?"
"Unless you are Jiang Tan, I am willing to protect you for the rest of my life."
The rain in Jiangnan always comes without warning. Jiang Tan slept until midnight and was disturbed by the rain outside.
Zhou Yinghuai slept with her in his arms from behind. Jiang Tan held his arm around her waist and wanted to move it away to close the window.
However, she had just moved one point, and Zhou Yinghuai had already woken up.
The man hugged her tighter and tighter, his voice was sleepy and hoarse, and extremely sexy: "What's wrong?"
"It's raining. I'm afraid the rain will come in."
"You lie down and I'll close it." Zhou Yinghuai's voice was soft and tired. After saying that, he stood up and closed the half-closed window.
Jiang Tan lay on the bed and looked at Zhou Yinghuai's back. When he came back, he stretched out his hands from the bed and said softly to Zhou Yinghuai: "Hug me."
Zhou Yinghuai lay down facing Jiang Tan. The bed on the other side was cool.
Jiang Tan wanted to shrink into his arms, but he pushed her back, "I feel cold."
"It's okay, I'm feeling hot." Jiang Tan was much more coquettish than during the day. She said, "Zhou Yinghuai, if you don't believe me, give me a hug."
She repeated it again, her voice softer than before.
"Okay, I'll hold you." Zhou Yinghuai chuckled, the laziness in his eyebrows was noble, and in the hazy night, he was sultry without knowing it. He hugged Jiang Tan, kissed her forehead, and said slowly : "I just said I felt cold, but you still didn't believe me."
"It's not cold!" Jiang Tan retorted firmly while hugging Zhou Yinghuai tighter, "It's warm."
Zhou Yinghuai looked at Jiang Tan, who had lowered his eyes and closed them, falling asleep again.
For a moment, Zhou Yinghuai felt as if he had finally turned back the time when they first met. He held Jiang Tan in his arms and felt a sense of joy at having found her again.
He pinched her chin, his movements were gentle, but he could not refuse.
Jiang Tan subconsciously raised his chin, looking at him with doubts and uneasiness: "What's wrong?"
Through the window, you can still hear the gurgling rain outside.
Zhou Yinghuai lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Tan's obedient features, leaned down and kissed her.
They are all too aware of each other's bodies and each other's reactions. Just one kiss can cause ripples and waves.
Jiang Tan closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
She heard Zhou Yinghuai's voice fall in her ears, and with a slight sigh, he said, "Tan Tan, just leave it to me."
The temperature in the room rose inch by inch. Jiang Tan saw Zhou Yinghuai's eyes in the night. The coldness and indifference in them were gone, replaced by indescribable tenderness.
Perhaps sensing that her gaze was too direct, the man leaned down, moved gently, and hugged her tightly: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Jiang Tan blushed and was speechless.
However, Zhou Yinghuai's voice was lazy and he said with bad intentions: "If you feel comfortable, tell me."
Jiang Tan was so embarrassed that she covered his mouth. The man chuckled, held her wrist with his hot hand, and kissed her.
Zhou Yinghuai thought that he had made the most correct choice in his life, which was to find a way to keep Jiang Tan.
After so many wrong paths and forks, he finally got everything back on track.
After a few rains, the summer in Jiangnan came to an end and autumn officially entered.
Jiang Tan didn't bring heavy clothes or a warm jacket. She caught a cold in the afternoon after enjoying the wind in the small yard in the morning.
Zhou Yinghuai's face darkened as he watched her sitting in front of him, sneezing one after another.
"I told you when I got up, put on more clothes." Zhou Yinghuai's tone was calm, but he could hear that he was worried.
"Your coat is too ugly, isn't it? I mean, I didn't expect it to be so cold all of a sudden." Jiang Tan whispered, "Should I put it on now?"
