Chapter 132 - Lesson Not Learned (2/2)

”...”

Zizi wiped her forehead as the situation was worsening instead of getting better. She lacked tears to shed.

”No Uncle...Like I said, nothing happened. We just…just…” slept together?

Damn that sounds even more wrong!

Soo Enlai warmly held her hands and pulled her to sit on the couch. He was apologetic. ”I am really sorry dear. As I expected, my sudden presence has scared you.”

It was inevitable to panic if an elder caught their children in such an intimate act, so he understood why Zizi could be denying the truth especially when they weren't married.

”Let me bring you some water. You look so pale.”

Yes please! I really need some water.

Zizi gulped down the glass of water in one breath. Soo Enlai anxiously said, ”Slow down, dear. There is no hurry.”

She took a few deep breaths. Her mind was all jumbled up and she couldn't think anything clearly.

Soo Enlai smiled and patted her head. He asked, ”Honestly, it took me aback to see you two together because Yunru had said that you two are not dating.”

She froze.

”It was when he returned after your first date. I asked him why, but he just said that you two are not suited to be together.”

Her gaze dimmed in sadness.

”But that stupid Yunru! Why did he have to lie that you two aren't dating? Is he playing games with his father now?” He pursed his lips.

Zizi widened her eyes.

”No...no we are not…”

Come on say it! Say that you are not dating him. Say that last night nothing happened between us. Say that you are not his girlfriend.

”I-I am not his g-girl-”

But she couldn't muster the courage to say it. She felt that if she denied it right now, the last thread that was loosely tying them together would break apart. That left a bitter feeling in her heart.

”What is going on?” Yunru yawned as he stepped down. He was pressing his forehead as it terribly hurt him. He felt his head splitting apart.

”Soo Yunru!” Soo Enlai faced him with a serious expression laced on his face. ”How dare you lie to me?”

”Huh? What are you talking about, Dad? Anyway, can you please make a glass of lemon water? It feels like a truck ran over my head.”

As he rubbed his brows, his gaze fell upon Zizi and he rapidly blinked his eyes. ”Princess? What are you doing here?”

Zizi froze.

Soo Enlai was enraged. He smacked him on the head.

”Ow! Dad! It's already hurting bad enough!”

”Shut up. How could you ask such a rude question to her after sleeping with her last night?”

Yunru paused his movements and looked at him, dumbfounded. ”What?”

”And now you are feigning ignorance? How dare you!”

Yunru was hell confused. ”What the hell is going on here? Who slept with who?”

Zizi had turned pale when she saw Yunru because she was scared to know if he remembered that she kissed him last night. She had no idea how to answer him if he questioned her about it. She was unsure of her feelings herself. How was she supposed to explain to him?

But now it seemed that he forgot what happened last night. Zizi quickly clutched his arm. ”Uncle, we need to talk a bit.” Without saying anything further, she pulled him away.

”Slap him hard if he acts mean!” Soo Enlai said.

”...”

”Hey! Where are you taking me?”

At a corner, Zizi quickly pulled him aside and said, ”Okay. There is a big problem here.”

Yunru said, ”What? And what are you doing at my home?”

Zizi cautiously asked, ”You don't remember?”

”No. Actually, I usually do remember stuff the next morning. But maybe I drank too much last night…Anyway, what is the problem?”

Relief washed over her. But at the same time, she felt a little disappointed.

Zizi hesitated. She had no choice but to say the truth. Soo Enlai clearly didn't seem as if he would hide it.

So she concisely explained what happened but omitted the part about the kiss. Yunru's eyes slowly widened in shock. ”What!?”
