197 Forced to ârelocateâ
In the end, the Zhou family respected Lin Liâs wishes and didnât hold a wedding for the time being. However, mother Zhou said that if Lin Li wanted to hold a wedding in the future, she would directly mention it. No matter when, the Zhou family would definitely make up for it!
After dinner, the few of them parted ways at the entrance of the hotel. Zhou han drove home with Lin Li, Mr. And Mrs. Lin. Mr. And Mrs. Zhou had a driver to pick them up. Mrs. Zhou was understanding that Mr. And Mrs. Lin were in Jiangcheng, so she wanted Lin Li and Zhou han to accompany the two elders to walk around for the next two days. As for the Zhou familyâs child, Zhou Jiabin, she brought him back to the institutionâs courtyard.
On the way back, father Lin and mother Lin were sitting in the back. Father Lin was probably too happy that night and had drunk a little too much. At this moment, he was holding mother Linâs hand and saying unhappily, â âOur Xiaoli really hit it off this time. Zhou han is better than Chengxiang, Zhou han is better than Chengxiang ...â
Mother Lin reached out her hand and patted father Lin. She was afraid that Zhou han would mind. She secretly cursed at this damn old man for being drunk and crazy at this time.
While she was scolding father Lin in her heart for saying something he shouldnât have, she was also worried that Zhou han would overthink it. Mother Linâs heart was beating like a drum as she looked towards the front seat. She smiled dryly and said, â âElder Lin, elder Lin is really drunk. Heâs talking drunk, talking drunk ...â
Zhou han smiled and said with a normal expression, â thereâs some Hangover tea at home. Itâs quite effective. Let dad have some when we get home, or heâll have a headache tomorrow.
Seeing that he wasnât overthinking things, she couldnât help but sigh. Mother Lin was relieved. She smiled and said, â âAh han, you must have a lot of social events when you start your own company, right?â
Zhou han nodded and focused on the road ahead. He smiled and said, â yes, I canât avoid these social activities. Now, itâs basically all business at the dining table.
Mother Lin nodded and said with concern, â âThen you have to be more careful in the future. Drinking too much will hurt your body.â
Zhou han nodded and suddenly freed one hand to grab Lin Liâs hand, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, and held it tightly. He smiled and said, â Iâm not afraid anymore. In the future, Lin Li will be by my side. She will make me some Hangover Tea.
Lin Li, who was originally in a daze, was unable to react when he suddenly grabbed her hand. She looked at his silly and cute expression in a daze.
Unlike Lin Li, mother Lin, who was behind him, laughed at Zhou Hanâs words. Her smile widened as she said, â yes, yes. Let Lin Li take care of you in the future, hehe.
Lin Li only reacted after a while. She glared at Zhou han from an angle that mother Lin couldnât see and pulled her hand back.
Zhou han glanced at her and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
After returning home, Zhou han first helped father Lin to sit down on the sofa. Then, he went to the kitchen to get The Hangover Tea he usually used for father Lin to drink. After that, he helped him into the room.
Father Linâs alcohol tolerance wasnât good, but he was a good drinker. Other than the few words he said to mother Lin in the car, he didnât do anything out of line and didnât make a fuss. After drinking the tea, he fell asleep on the bed.
Mother Lin got some water and wrung a towel to help father Lin wipe his face, so that he could sleep more comfortably.
When mother Lin took out the basin from her room and was about to throw it away, she saw Lin Li standing alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window connecting the living room and the balcony. Her arms were crossed in front of her chest, and there wasnât much expression on her face, making it difficult to read her emotions.
Mother Lin washed her face and placed it in the bathroom outside. When she came out of the bathroom, Lin Li was still standing in the same position, as if she hadnât moved at all.
Mother Lin sighed softly and walked over to her. She reached out and patted her on the shoulder. Only then did Lin Li react. She turned her head and pulled the corners of her mouth into a smile. mom.
Mother Lin stood side by side with her, looking at the bonsai trees on the balcony outside the floor-to-ceiling window. The leaves gently fluttered in the night wind.
âMom, arenât you tired? why donât you go back to your room to rest?â Lin Li asked softly.
Mother Lin didnât earn enough, so she asked Lin Li, â âDid Zhou han go into the study again?â
Iâm done, â Lin Li nodded and said casually. I still have some things to deal with.
Mother Lin nodded and didnât say anything else. She just looked outside with a serious expression.
Seeing that her mother was no longer speaking, Lin Li didnât know what to say. She didnât say anything more and turned her head to look outside.
She didnât know how long had passed. Although mother Lin didnât turn around, she slowly said, â âLin Li, you still canât forget about Chengxiang, right?â Mother Lin spoke very calmly, her tone so calm that there was no fluctuation in her emotions.
Hearing this, Lin Liâs heart trembled, and she hurriedly said, â âNo, I didnât.â
No matter how nice her words were, her actions would betray everything. Lin Liâs hand, which she didnât know where to place, betrayed her emotions.
Mother Lin turned her head and saw the faint smile on Lin Liâs face. She reached out to hold Lin Liâs hand and said gently, â silly girl, how can you forget a relationship of ten years so easily? why force yourself to pretend that nothing happened? â
I ... Lin Li turned her head and didnât dare to look at her. She only stubbornly said in a low voice, â I didnât. Iâve really forgotten.
A mother knows her daughter best. How could she not know if she had really forgotten about mother Lin? when she mentioned Chengxiang in the car just now, her expression had changed, and the change was so obvious. It would be strange if she had really forgotten about it. Furthermore, Zhou han must have noticed it just now, so he probably grabbed her hand to snap her back to reality. She was glad that Zhou han could be so understanding and tolerant, and she also believed that with Zhou Hanâs tolerance and love, she would not be able to forget. Even if Lin Li still couldnât forget the 10-year relationship in her heart, she would really let it go one day. When she thought about it again, she could just smile and let it go.
Seeing her insist that she didnât, mother Lin didnât say anything more. She pulled her by the hand and led her to her room.
At first, Lin Li was still immersed in her own emotions. After her mother took her back to her room, Lin Li came back to her senses and looked at mother Lin in a daze, somewhat puzzled. mom, why are you taking me back to my room? do you have something to tell me? â
Mother Lin glanced at her and pushed open the door of her wardrobe. She pointed at the clothes inside and said, â âGo, pack up all these and move over.â
âMove!â Lin Li was even more puzzled and asked,âmove to where?â
Mother Lin glared at her and poked her on the forehead. She scolded her with a smile, where else can I move to? of course, Iâll move to your room and Zhou Hanâs room!
âAh!â Lin Li was shocked and quickly waved her hands to explain, â âNo, no, we, weâre good like this, very good. Itâs not so troublesome to move them around.â
âWhat nonsense are you saying!â Mother Lin chided, â youâre already husband and wife, why are you still sleeping in separate rooms? if there are guests coming over, wouldnât you be laughed at? if your in-lawâs mother sees this and says that you donât like Zhou han being busy until late at night every day and disturbing your sleep, what do you think your in-lawâs mother will think? â
I ... Lin Li opened her mouth to explain, but she realized that her words were too weak. There was nothing that could be explained at all. All the reasons had been told to Zhou han, and she could only continue to follow his story to smooth out these lies.
Sighing, mother Lin said with a heavy heart, â âXiao Li, now that youâre married, youâre a wife and a daughter-in-law. There are many things that canât be the same as before. Itâs fun for couples to quarrel occasionally, and the husband will side with you because he loves you. But you canât be stubborn or paranoid. Itâs not good if you go too far.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI, I didnât ... Itâs not what you think!â Lin Li was helpless. She really couldnât explain it clearly now.
Mother Lin thought that she was just throwing a tantrum and continued, â Xiao Li, listen to mommy. Itâs not easy for two people to be together and become husband and wife. Itâs a blessing from their previous lives. We have to cherish it. The relationship between husband and wife is only love or whatever feelings or passion you guys are talking about. Itâs not reliable and wonât last long. You have to understand, understand, and tolerate. Put yourself in each otherâs shoes. Donât always only care about your own emotions and live life with a stumbling tone. Isnât it better for two people to understand each other and think for each other? â
Lin Li didnât know what else to say. She never knew that her mother could actually say so much about the relationship between husband and wife. She was almost as good as those relationship experts on TV and radio!
Seeing that she didnât respond, Mrs. Lin pushed her back and said, â âDonât just smile like a fool. Did you hear what I said?â
Lin Li laughed dryly and nodded. She could only say perfunctorily, â yes, I heard it. I heard it. She had no choice but to listen. If she didnât, her mother would probably continue talking to her.
Mother Lin nodded in satisfaction. She pulled her and said, â âQuick, pack up and move the things over.â As she said that, she began to take out Lin Liâs clothes from the closet.
Seeing this, Lin Li could only reach out and press her aching temple.
After sitting in the study room for nearly two hours, Zhou han finally finished all the unfinished work. He massaged his sore neck and walked out of the study room.
The study room wasnât far from the master bedroom. He reached out to open the door and entered. As he was really tired after a whole day, Zhou han didnât notice that the bathroom light was on at this moment. He walked straight to the bed and took off his coat. He took his pajamas from the cloakroom and headed to the bathroom tiredly.
He didnât think much about it and directly opened the door to enter. The moment he opened the door, he smelled the misty fragrance of shower gel. He subconsciously frowned and realized that something was wrong. When he looked up, he met a pair of big eyes that were a little dumbfounded at the moment!
