Heartthrob, Your Image is Crumbling!

Chapter 385: Zheng Yanyan at the Door

"Stop crying,"Zheng Yanyan coming over this time indeed disrupted Zhou Yuwen's plan, but her love for him was real. On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, a little girl running around everywhere—no matter what, he had to coax her.

So Zhou Yuwen just sat on the bed like that, while Zheng Yanyan straddled him with her long legs clad in boots, tears still streaming down her face.

Zhou Yuwen wiped Zheng Yanyan's tears away little by little, coaxing her as he wiped, saying, "Baby, stop crying."

The more Zhou Yuwen said this, the more Zheng Yanyan naturally acted coquettishly.

Left with no choice, Zhou Yuwen could only cup Zheng Yanyan's small face and kiss her.

At this, Zheng Yanyan finally cooperated. After all, they hadn't seen each other for so long, and she had even thought that Zhou Yuwen no longer loved her.

Girls were just strange like that. When you wanted it, they wouldn't give it to you, but when you didn't want it, they would chase after you to offer it. During the kiss, Zheng Yanyan even lifted the hem of her sweater and actively took Zhou Yuwen's hand, slipping it inside.

This left Zhou Yuwen somewhat amused and exasperated as he asked, "Are you missing me, or missing something else?"

"You're so annoying!" Zheng Yanyan's pretty face flushed red, but she said nothing else.

Obviously, she was missing both.

Pressing down with both hands, she pushed Zhou Yuwen flat onto the bed and rolled on top of him, giggling merrily.

The two of them played around on the bed for a while, but Zhou Yuwen did not do anything more excessive.

After all, it was broad daylight, and it wasn't very convenient.

A short while later.

A knock suddenly sounded from outside the door.

This startled both Zhou Yuwen and Zheng Yanyan, and they froze in place.

At this moment, Zhou Yuwen was still lying prone on Zheng Yanyan. He asked, "Who is it?"

"Son, open the door. I brought some things over for you two." It was Zhou Yuwen's mother.

Zhou Yuwen felt helpless. 'Mom is really annoying,' he thought. 'She is not here to deliver things; she is here to spy on the situation.'

He opened the door.

Only to see his mother holding a new quilt, smiling at him. She said, "I was thinking that Yan Yan might not be used to your Sister-in-Law's quilt, so I picked out a new one."

"Thank you, Auntie."

Zheng Yanyan tilted her head from behind Zhou Yuwen and thanked Yang Lirong. She was tall and had fair skin; at a glance, one could tell she was a girl from a big city. Most importantly, Yang Lirong felt that Zheng Yanyan was very polite. She liked Zheng Yanyan a lot and waved her hand, saying it was no trouble.

"You traveled from so far away to come here. If you need anything, just tell Auntie."

Yang Lirong was quite enthusiastic, helping Zheng Yanyan make the bed with the new quilt.

Zheng Yanyan was very perceptive and quickly ran over to help Yang Lirong make the bed together.

The two of them were very harmonious. Yang Lirong said that if Zheng Yanyan needed anything else, she shouldn't hesitate to ask. They even specifically added each other on WeChat.

Zhou Yuwen watched from the side without saying a word.

This was the nature of women. Yang Lirong already somewhat disliked Su Qing, so now that Zheng Yanyan had appeared, she immediately began to fawn on someone. She even kept mentioning how Yan Yan was a girl from a big city.

This little girl ran all the way over here for you right during the New Year.

Isn't she better than that girl pestering you for a Mercedes-Benz?

How should one put it?

Zheng Yanyan definitely wouldn't be easier to please than Su Qing, but the two of them were six of one, half dozen of the other. Yet, Yang Lirong clearly favored Zheng Yanyan more.

After making the bed, she even pulled Zheng Yanyan aside to chat about family matters for a while.

The most important question among them was:

"Child, your parents aren't divorced, right?"

"Huh?"

Zheng Yanyan was taken aback for a moment, but she was very smart and quickly understood the meaning behind those words. She immediately flashed a confident smile at Zhou Yuwen's mother and said, "Auntie, my parents are not divorced!"

Hearing this, Yang Lirong instantly beamed with joy. She held Zheng Yanyan's hands and said, "It's good that they aren't divorced."

"I just hope he finds a child from a healthy family."

After speaking, she even cast a glance at Zhou Yuwen.

Zheng Yanyan and Yang Lirong chatted more and more happily, but Zhou Yuwen couldn't bear to listen any longer. He couldn't help but say, "Mom, are you done tidying up? If you're done, please leave quickly. Yan Yan still needs to rest."

Yang Lirong glared at Zhou Yuwen, saying, "What's the rush? It's rare for her to visit, shouldn't I show some care?"

"Alright, alright. You can care when you have more time. Hurry up and head out."

Zhou Yuwen said, feeling quite speechless, as he pulled Yang Lirong and pushed her toward the door.

Even as Yang Lirong was being pushed out by Zhou Yuwen, she remained unwilling to leave, continuously telling Zheng Yanyan to just let Auntie know if she needed anything.

It made Zheng Yanyan feel quite embarrassed.

After pushing his mother out, Zhou Yuwen followed her out as well.

Leaving the room, Zhou Yuwen said to Yang Lirong with some dissatisfaction, "Mom, why are you causing trouble again?"

"I've never seen you act so snobbish before."

"How am I being snobbish?"

Accusing his mother of being snobbish, yet she still wouldn't admit it.

She said, "I just see that it really isn't easy for the little girl. She specifically came all the way from Jingcheng to our small place. Do you really not know what the little girl is thinking?"

Of course Zhou Yuwen knew, but Zhou Yuwen couldn't say it.

Zhou Yuwen said, "What are you talking about? She was just bored staying at home, so she came out for a stroll."

Hearing this, Yang Lirong couldn't help but purse her lips. She didn't say anything, just chose to stare at her son like that.

No one knows a son better than his mother.

Being stared at by his mother like this, Zhou Yuwen felt very uncomfortable. He touched his cheek and said, "Mom, why are you looking at me like that?"

Yang Lirong snorted and said, "Don't try to fool me."

"You are exactly like your deadbeat father. Let me tell you, regardless of your relationship with the girl inside, she ran all the way here to find you right during the New Year. Just for that affection alone, you had better take good care of her for me."

Zhou Yuwen, nodding, said, "That is for sure."

Only then was Yang Lirong satisfied. Just as she was about to leave, she still couldn't hold back from asking, "There is really no relationship between you two?"

"No relationship."

Zhou Yuwen was too embarrassed to meet his mother's eyes. 'Sigh, what should I do now? I'll just hide as much as I can,' he thought. 'Though I guess everyone is well aware of the truth.'

After Yang Lirong left, Zhou Yuwen re-entered the room.

He saw Zheng Yanyan crossing her beautiful legs still clad in long boots, leaning back with her hands supporting her weight on the bed, watching Zhou Yuwen with great interest.

Seeing Zhou Yuwen enter, Zheng Yanyan smiled and asked, "Has Auntie left?"

"Yeah."

As Zhou Yuwen spoke, he turned on the kettle on the desk. These things had been left behind by Lu Wanting after she used them. There was definitely no problem with hygiene, so he could directly boil water. Watching Zhou Yuwen busy himself in the room, Zheng Yanyan found it quite amusing. She asked, "Zhou Yuwen, does Auntie know about Su Qing?"

Zhou Yuwen said, "You're quite smart."

Zheng Yanyan chuckled and said smugly, "Of course, I'm not stupid. She even asked if my parents were divorced. I'm guessing she must be somewhat dissatisfied with Su Qing."

Zhou Yuwen said, "You guessed it all completely right."

Zheng Yanyan grew even happier. However, seeing Zhou Yuwen boiling water with his back to her, she became a bit unhappy. Pouting, she said, "Come over and sit. I'm not thirsty right now anyway."

Zhou Yuwen sighed and eventually sat back down on the bed.

Zheng Yanyan quickly embraced Zhou Yuwen and stuffed her slender, beautiful hands into his clothes to warm up. Even though the air conditioner had been on for a while, her body still felt a bit cold.

They were piercingly cold. Zhou Yuwen was somewhat surprised, so he reached out, took Zheng Yanyan's small hands, and breathed hot air onto them near his mouth, asking why she was still so cold when the air conditioner had been on for quite a while.

Zheng Yanyan blushed. She said that she naturally had a cold constitution.

"Nonsense, even a cold constitution wouldn't make you this cold."

Zhou Yuwen directly complained.

Zheng Yanyan giggled continuously. Even though Zhou Yuwen was clearly scolding her, she was genuinely happy.

She said that perhaps she had just stayed outside for too long, and she would be fine after warming up for a bit.

Zhou Yuwen asked her how she got there, and why she had to transfer trains midway.

Zheng Yanyan then honestly recounted her legendary experience to Zhou Yuwen.

She got on the high-speed rail at nine in the morning, then arrived at the Xuhuai station at two o'clock. From Xuhuai station, she transferred trains to come over. There were no seated tickets, so she just bought a standing ticket.

"But it's really cold here on your end, Zhou Yuwen. I feel like it's even colder than our Jingcheng," Zheng Yanyan said.

Zhou Yuwen held Zheng Yanyan and said, "Isn't that obvious? The snow just melted over here, so it's definitely going to be a bit colder."

"Are you still cold now?" Zhou Yuwen asked as he helped rub Zheng Yanyan's hands.

Pressing against Zhou Yuwen, Zheng Yanyan said, "Not cold anymore. With you holding me, I don't feel cold at all."

"Are you a fool?"

"Hehe, even if I'm a fool, I'm your fool."

Zhou Yuwen simply rolled his eyes.

People are always multifaceted. When he looked at Zheng Yanyan in the past, he always felt that this little girl was somewhat vain and a bit headstrong. Yet now, seeing her silly appearance, Zhou Yuwen found her rather cute.

The kettle could boil water in just five minutes.

Zhou Yuwen went outside and found a plastic basin.

He brought it in to let Zheng Yanyan soak her feet.

Scalding hot water was poured into it. Zhou Yuwen told her to take off her boots and quickly soak her feet, which would be much more comfortable.

Zheng Yanyan was very happy looking at the considerate Zhou Yuwen in front of her. Thus, she straightened her legs, presenting her small feet right in front of Zhou Yuwen's eyes. "Take them off for me."

Zhou Yuwen said, "In your dreams."

"Take them off yourself!"

"Ahhh~ Why~" Zheng Yanyan pouted coquettishly.

But no matter how much she acted coquettishly, Zhou Yuwen was not going to help her take off her boots. He said, "Who wants to smell your stinky feet?"

Zheng Yanyan said, "Are they stinky? They aren't stinky."

After saying that, she even took off a boot and sniffed it herself.

Looking at her silly appearance as she sat askew on the bed.

Zhou Yuwen could only remain speechless.

Inside her boots, she was wearing a pair of cotton socks. After Zhou Yuwen mixed the hot water to the right temperature, he carried the basin over.

Zheng Yanyan placed her cotton-sock-clad feet in front of Zhou Yuwen, gesturing for him to take them off for her.

Even though she had worn boots, she hadn't walked much, so there really was no smell.

Seeing her spoiled nature, Zhou Yuwen rarely refrained from scolding her and helped her take off her socks. Just like that, from beneath the black tight pants, a pair of slender, jade-white feet was revealed.

Zheng Yanyan's legs were originally very long, and wearing those yoga-style tight pants made them look even more flawless. Her calves were tightly wrapped, making them look plump and soft.

And the jade-like feet beneath were even more crystal clear. The toenails were neatly trimmed, and the bottom of each toe was soft pink and cute.

She even playfully wiggled her big toe, acting mischievous with Zhou Yuwen.

Zhou Yuwen naturally didn't hold back and started tickling the soles of Zheng Yanyan's feet, causing her to giggle uncontrollably.

Zhou Yuwen told her that she didn't know how to behave at all.

Zheng Yanyan, however, pouted and said, "I came all the way over here, aren't I allowed to act a little spoiled?"

Zhou Yuwen placed her jade-like feet into the basin and asked, "Is it scalding?"

"Mhm, it's alright."

Seeing that there was no problem, Zhou Yuwen did not continue helping Zheng Yanyan wash her feet. Instead, he told her that there was still water in the kettle, so she could add more herself once it cooled down.

Zheng Yanyan blinked her eyes and asked Zhou Yuwen, "Aren't you going to wash my feet for me?"

Zhou Yuwen replied, "Keep dreaming."

Just as they were about to say something else, Zhou Yuwen's phone rang again. It was a call from Su Qing.

Su Qing was still a little uneasy, asking Zhou Yuwen what he was doing right now.

Zhou Yuwen said that he had already settled Zheng Yanyan in.

"I told my Mom that Yan Yan is our classmate, she came to visit me, and will temporarily stay at my house."

"Stay at your house?!"

Hearing this, Su Qing felt complicated for a moment.

She asked Zhou Yuwen, "Did Auntie say anything?"

Zhou Yuwen sighed instead. What could be done even if she did say something?

"Let's just muddle through for now. I'll take her to Jinling in a few days."

Zhou Yuwen did not avoid Zheng Yanyan when taking the call.

So Zheng Yanyan knew it was Su Qing on the phone, and she felt a little unhappy.

She finally had a chance to flirt with her boyfriend.

Having it ruined just like that by this wretched woman Su Qing would make anyone unhappy.

Su Qing was still saying over the phone, "Why not let Zheng Yanyan stay at a hotel first?"

"She is a single girl, what does it look like staying at your house? Staying at my house would be fine too!"

Zhou Yuwen said, "Stop coming up with bad ideas. If your Mom finds out, it will be even harder to resolve. Let's just arrange things like this for now."
