C177 (1/2)
Looking towards the source of the sound, it was Lei Zichen who was sitting firmly in the car. At first, Tao Tian was stunned, but when he recalled the scene from last night, he subconsciously took a few steps back.
”Why are you avoiding me? Do you think I know how to eat humans?!” Seeing that Tao Tian's expression was strange, Lei Zichen asked loudly with a puzzled expression.
”Why did you come to my house?” Tao Tian shouted from afar, but didn't approach him.
”Can you be a bit closer to me? I came to your house, so of course I'm here to pick you up to work.” Lei Zichen's words were unhurried. He didn't understand why Tao Tian would ask such an idiotic question.
”What are you blabbering about? Get in the car quickly!” Lei Zichen shouted in dissatisfaction as he looked at Tao Tian's hesitant face.
”Come on!” Seeing that Tao Tian still didn't move, Lei Zichen shouted again, ”Do you want to be late? Be careful that I don't deduct your salary. ”
”Oh, I'm coming.” Tao Tian was hesitating to see if Irene had ambushed anyone nearby. It was clear that Irene had single-handedly not disturbed anyone this time.
Tao Tian opened the car door and got into the front passenger seat.
”Where's Ann? She's still sleeping?” Lei Zichen couldn't help asking the moment Ye Zichen got into the car.
”Yeah, I still haven't woken up yet. I was too tired yesterday.” Tao Tian said as he fastened his seat belt.
”Yeah, this kid really did do quite a bit yesterday.” Lei Zichen couldn't help but smile when he thought of An An's adorable appearance.
On the other hand, Tao Tian had a look of worry on his face. She was in the dark, so everything had to be careful.
”Ah, Zichen.” After a moment of silence, Tao Tian couldn't help but ask, ”Is your fiancee Irene?” Carefully, Tao Tian looked into Lei Zichen's eyes.
”Why do you suddenly want to ask?” It was obvious that Lei Zichen's whole day of happiness was not about to be ruined by this.
”No ….” ”Nothing, I just wanted to ask.” Feeling somewhat unnatural, Tao Tian pulled up the buckled seatbelt on his body.
Yes, but at that time, it was because I thought that you had died. After so many years, Irene was silently guarding by my side, no matter what I did, she was always on guard. I thought, since I couldn't have you, who could I actually be with? Lei Zichen explained in detail, he didn't seem like a cold man at all.
”Will you marry her?” Tao Yao raised his face and asked.
”God allowed me to meet you again. Why would I marry someone else?” Lei Zichen said with a stern expression.
”But, I …”
”I know, don't worry, I will protect you.” Without waiting for Tao Tian to speak, Lei Zichen spoke first.
”No matter if it's you or An An, I will protect you two, mother and son. I will give you these years of time as compensation.” Lei Zichen's voice became gentle, his words causing a ripple in Tao Tianxin's heart.
”Irene, why didn't I come with you?” Because he had negotiated with Irene yesterday, Tao Tian still couldn't get over Irene's issue. He could only watch as Lei Zichen came and went, as if Irene didn't have the freedom to restrain him.
”Yao Yao, I don't want to lie to you. She told me that she will be here by noon today, so she will be here by noon today.” Lei Zichen's facial expression was somewhat subtle, but he quickly calmed down.
Noon? Tao Tian silently pondered in his heart. But she had seen Irene last night and would come no matter what. Lei Zichen didn't need to tell such a lie.
Furthermore, she saw Irene after separating from Lei Zichen. That was to say, Lei Zichen might not have known that Irene had arrived here a day earlier than expected to meet her. Her preparatory work could really be considered as abundant, having both her phone number and her home address.
Tao Tian thought back to the confrontation he had with Irene last night. Irene had forced herself on him, and he feared that the peaceful life he had lived in the past would never appear again. Thinking of this, Tao Tian felt a bit sad.
”What is it? Aren't you happy? ” Seeing that Tao Tian remained silent for a long time, Lei Zichen asked worriedly.
”Don't worry, I will take care of this matter. We have to leave on Monday. Are you willing to come back with me?” Lei Zichen suddenly asked.
”Zichen, listen to me …” Tao Tian didn't want to leave Lei Zichen, but was worried that Allin would threaten her safety. He was in a dilemma, and the only thing he could do now was delay time.
Fate was truly humorous. Every time Lei Zichen brought sunlight upon the land, she would be overjoyed, but she would need to use her heart to exchange for it. Just what did she need to do to escape from the cycle of reincarnation …
”Well, what do you say?” Lei Zichen listened attentively as he drove.
”Actually, you can go back first. After you've settled in, you can come back and pick us up. Isn't that good?” Tao Tian said with some difficulty. God only knew how much she wanted to go with him.
