Chapter 2567 Side Story 71: Have or Not
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Zi Chen seemed to notice something as he turned around and glanced at her. “Why are you smiling?”
Tuan Zi was stunned. Her pair of blackberry-like eyes moved with shards of light. How did he know that I was smiling!? I’ve already covered more than half of my face!
However, she did not know that all her emotions were written in her eyes. He just had to look up to understand everything.
After a moment, she said in an upset manner, “I-I’m not smiling!”
Seeing that the girl was embarrassed from being caught red-handed, Zi Chen didn’t expose her. He just raised his brows slightly, and his lips curled up into an extremely faint smile.
He stood up, walked over, and lightly flicked her white forehead. “Are you not going to sleep? Close your eyes. Be good.”
Tuan Zi then closed her eyes.
The thick and long lashes moved slightly, revealing some sparks in her eyes.
Zi Chen straightened his body and took a few glances. Following this, he retracted his gaze and exhaled silently in his heart.
He really… did not quite dare to look into her eyes. He felt that if he looked at them for too long, even she could tell.
He stood quietly before the bed as he thought of something. Then, he curled his fingers lightly.
A little warm.
In actual fact, he hadn’t seen her in a long time and did miss her. But from yesterday until now, he had been controlling himself and did not contact her.
He wanted her to realize that she was no longer a child like the past. Anyone, especially the opposite gender, could no longer hug and kiss her like before, especially him…
After he noticed his feelings, any contact clearly had a layer of blurred color.
Tuan Zi wasn’t guarded against him, but he could not be unreasonable.
Tuan Zi treated him like a family member and was long used to him. He had to take away this layer of identity.
As she was precious, he had to be meticulous and careful.
Even though Tuan Zi’s eyes were shut, her other senses were sharp. She could feel that Zi Chen was standing beside the bed.
He was doing something and did not leave.
Her forehead faintly still had some warm contact left.
Actually, it was a very quick motion that could be ignored. But for some reason, it kept repeating in her mind, and she could not remove it.
She thought of how Zi Chen used to regularly coax her to sleep. At that time, he was also very patient as he patted the back of her head lightly and comfortingly.
It was just… different from now.
Tuan Zi couldn’t help but widen her eyes slightly to see what exactly he was doing.
In the end, Zi Chen saw her the moment she moved.
He glanced at her and was not surprised. “You want to eat? Or do you want to listen to a story?”
Thanks to this lady, he was very skilled in this area.
He long knew that she wouldn’t fall asleep so easily, so he was prepared.
But hearing this, Tuan Zi was suddenly dazed.
Zi Chen really behaved the same as before.
Sometimes, she made a scene and clung to him for very long. It was either for good food, she felt bored, or she wanted to listen to him speak.
The food was very nice, but his stories weren’t quite good. But hearing Zi Chen’s nonchalant voice talking about the ordinary stories, she found them interesting.
Yet, she did not go for these today. She just… wanted to look at him and talk to him properly.
Without hearing her reply, Zi Chen softly asked again.
His face, calm and collected as usual without a hint of annoyance.
But Tuan Zi had an unknown emotion. She was rather frustrated, and her heart was slightly cold. Zi Chen is actually just treating me like a child, right? But I’m not one!
Thinking of the dream the previous night, Zi Chen in her dream gradually overlapped with the one before her.
She clenched her teeth slightly, turned around, and faced him with her back. “I don’t want any!”
Zi Chen found it strange. This temper came suddenly.
He knitted his brows and saw her burying herself in the blanket, her messy hair on her pillow.
Without looking, he knew that she was angry.
He thought for a while, and his voice was gentler. “Who bullied you? Let me help you take revenge?”
Tuan Zi was even angrier. It turns out that to Zi Chen, I’m just a child who only knows how to eat, drink, and fight all day.
She felt stifled and finally managed to spit out a sentence: “I don’t need you to coax me.”
She suddenly realized that her series of actions today was really like a child being unreasonable.
Zi Chen brought her back and coaxed her to sleep. What could that show?
He didn’t even know how terrible he was in the dream to her. He did not know anything.
After a while, she heard the footsteps getting further and thought that he was leaving. She panicked and couldn’t help but look.
Yet, Zi Chen just returned to his chair and lightly rubbed his brows as if he were thinking of a problem.
She did not know that Zi Chen was just thinking of how he had offended her. Besides that, he was also wondering if all girls had fluctuating emotions during puberty.
He had never coaxed them before and was inexperienced.
Tuan Zi thought of it and felt that her sentence was inappropriate.
She calmed down, swiftly turned around, and looked at him. She said hesitantly, “Zi Chen, let’s talk?”
Zi Chen looked up at her.
Actually, he had a feeling that Tuan Zi had something to say.
He nodded.
Tuan Zi pursed her lips and tried hard to make her voice sound normal. “Are… you going to marry in the future?”
According to A’Yue, Zi Chen should have such thoughts.
She found it incredulous. After all, Zi Chen’s rejecting attitude was rather obvious at Godly Phoenix Mountain.
How long has it been? Perhaps A’Yue has thought wrongly…
She thought Zi Chen would immediately deny it, but she waited for a while, and Zi Chen still kept quiet.
He sat there, leaned against the chair, and placed his wrist on the armrest. His attitude was relaxed.
As his back faced the light, his expression was ambiguous. His face was nonchalant, but his eyes were dark.
Tuan Zi unknowingly became nervous, and the air became thinner.
Just when she thought that Zi Chen wouldn’t answer her, he looked at her and finally spoke. “Yes.”
Yes?
Yes!
Tuan Zi was shocked, and her entire person became confused. How did this happen? Didn’t he not have this thought beforehand? When I previously said I would help him find a wife, he was still very angry. Why did his attitude change by 180 degrees in the blink of an eye?
She finally could not hold herself back, and she suddenly sat up. “You can’t!”
Zi Chen raised his brows and looked at her with questioning intent. “Why can’t I?”
Tuan Zi was stumped. Isn’t it normal for him to want to marry someone and have kids? Why did I say no?
She grabbed her hair and squeezed her brain to think of an excuse. “B-because… A’Yue said that you must marry someone you like. Y-you still don’t have someone you like… How can you be so casual?!”
Zi Chen stared at her and slowly said, “Who says I don’t?”
