After Zhuang Long bought ice cream for Zhuang Qilin, he also bought a caramel-flavored ice cream cone for Xiao Li. Xiao Li was quite surprised to see the father and son return with an ice cream cone each. When Zhuang Long handed the ice cream to her, Xiao Li was even more surprised.
âHow did you know that I love to eatâ¦â Before she could finish speaking, Xiao Li thought of something and glanced at Zhuang Qilin again.
Zhuang Qilin pretended to smile cutely.
The reason why he did this was naturally to matchmake his mother and father. However, the reason why he was willing to do this was because he could tell that his father had feelings for his mother now, and his mother still had feelings for his father.
In that case, they might as well live together.
After all, living with his biological father was better than living with her stepfather.
In the end, Xiao Li took the ice cream.
She especially loved ice cream, but because of the strict requirements on her figure and eating habits, Xiao Li usually did not touch these things. She took a bite of the ice cream. It was cold and sweet with a caramel smell. It was reallyâ¦
Really sweet!
Zhuang Long saw her eating ice cream and turned his head uncomfortably to look at the busy street.
Xiao Li did not know that she had unknowingly seduced someone. She turned her body slightly and ate quietly. After she finished eating, she wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and said, âWeâve eaten and shopped. We should go back.â
Zhuang Qilin nodded.
Zhuang Long could not find a reason to continue asking the mother and son to stay. Zhuang Long sent the mother and son home. Zhuang Long thought that Xiao Li would be in a hurry to get out of the car, but she said to Zhuang Qilin, âQilin, go back to the house first, okay? Mom has something to tell your father.â
Zhuang Qilin glanced at his father. Seeing Zhuang Long nod, he carried his school bag and other things and jumped out of the car. The two adults watched their son run into the house. Zhuang Long then looked at Xiao Li and asked her, âWhat do you want to tell me?â
Was she trying to draw a line between them?
Xiao Li asked him, âAre you chasing me?â
Zhuang Long was stunned.
When he came back to his senses, he said, âIsnât it obvious?â
Xiao Li asked again, âWill you still persist even if Iâm entangled with Bruce?â After saying that, she saw Zhuang Longâs handsome face turn malicious. Xiao Li looked at him silently.
A moment later, she heard Zhuang Long say, âItâs not your fault. I did something wrong.â
Zhuang Long knew better than anyone how much Xiao Li had done for him.
All these years, Xiao Li had always kept her chastity for him. She seemed unrestrained, but she had never done anything overboard outside. When she really started to be impudent, it was also after she was determined to get a divorce. At the end of the day, this was all Zhuang Longâs fault.
When Xiao Li heard this answer, she seemed a little surprised.
She said, âYouâre so sensible that you make me feel that youâre unfamiliar.â
Zhuang Long said, âThatâs because you never understood the real me.â There was something that Zhuang Long had always been curious about. âWhat exactly do you love about me? You love me so much that you would ratherâ¦â Zhuang Long suddenly shut his mouth and went silent.
Xiao Li finished speaking for him. âYou love it so much that you would make a test tube baby at all costs?â
Zhuang Long did not speak, but he did not deny it.
Xiao Li chuckled and said, âI really miss our night.â
Zhuang Long raised his eyebrows and said, âIf you want it, I can give it to you tonight.â
Xiao Li shook her head.
âYou donât know what I mean.â
Zhuang Long could not help but ask, âWhat happened to us that night?â He could not remember what happened that night clearly. After he drank, his memories were a little blurry. Zhuang Long did not know what exactly happened that night.
Xiao Li seemed to have fallen into a memory and did not speak for a long time.
She only sighed and said, âZhuang Long, weâve known each other for many years.â
Zhuang Long was stunned.
âWhy wouldnât I know?â He believed Xiao Liâs words. It was impossible for her to lie to him. Xiao Li was honest and did whatever she wanted. It was beneath her to lie.
Zhuang Long could guarantee this.
Xiao Li blinked and reminded him as if she was joking, âKT virus.â
âAlright, Iâm leaving.â Xiao Li picked up her bag. Before getting out of the car, she said to Zhuang Long, âDrive my car back. Be careful on the road.â
Zhuang Long asked her, âCan I see you again?â
Xiao Li said, âI donât want to see you for the time being.â
Zhuang Longâs eyes darkened.
This heartless woman.
Zhuang Long returned home thoughtfully. On the way, he kept thinking about what Xiao Li had said.
KT virus.
Could it be that he had seen Xiao Li at the place where the KT virus erupted? He should have an impression of such a beautiful woman like Xiao Li. However, he searched his memory but could not find her. When he returned home, he heard from the butler that Ji Yinbing had not left.
Zhuang Longâs eyes lit up.
Oh right!
Ji Yinbing went to the KT virus outbreak with him. They were almost inseparable those days.
Zhuang Long immediately ran to the research lab.
Ji Yinbing was a little surprised to see him. Putting down her work, Ji Yinbing asked him, âYou came back quite late today. It seems like you guys are getting along well today.â Ji Yinbing was really happy for Zhuang Long. She wanted everyone around her to be happy.
âNot bad. We ate and shopped.â Thinking of a scene that made his heart burn, Zhuang Long said proudly, âWe even ate ice cream.â
Ji Yinbing looked at him deeply.
âIt seems like something good is coming?â
Zhuang Longâs shoulders slumped and he looked discouraged.
Seeing him like this, Ji Yinbing found it funny.
âOh right, let me ask you something.â Zhuang Long pulled himself together.
Ji Yinbing said, âAsk away.â
âDo you still remember when we went to the KT virus outbreak site that year?â
âOf course I remember. That was the first time I faced a real virus outbreak. How could I not remember?â Not only did she remember, she remembered it especially well.
Howeverâ¦
âWhy did you suddenly mention this?â
Zhuang Long said, âXiao Li told me tonight that weâve known each other before. She didnât say it explicitly and only mentioned the keyword KT virus.â He asked Ji Yinbing to think about it carefully and see if there was such a beauty among the people they had treated back then.
Ji Yinbing thought for a long time before saying blankly, âI donât think so. I donât remember. Xiao Li is such a good-looking person. Sheâs eye-catching wherever she goesâ¦â Ji Yinbing thought of something and suddenly exclaimed,â God, it canât be her! â
Zhuang Long quickly asked, âWho?â
âRemember, we saved a girl wearing a veil.â Ji Yinbing pointed at her head and said, âShe has golden hair and wears a veil. She didnât allow us to look at her face as she really cared about her looks.â
Zhuang Long seemed to have an impression of what Ji Yinbing said.
