Chapter 166

"I can't believe I actually succeeded," she said as she carefully placed the rose on the table, glancing at her WeChat list where a new contact had appeared.

She took a photo of the rose and sent it to Shang Xi, sharing her joy.

"This is the first time anyone has ever given me flowers."

Gray Tail stood in the living room, watching Zhou Ziyou busying herself, dumbfounded.

She... succeeded?

This woman... found a man?

Seeing the sweetness on Zhou Ziyou's face, his heart felt pierced by a needle, a sharp pang of pain.

Gray Tail was completely dazed, unsure of what to do.

He stretched out his hand, looking at his empty palm, his gray eyes widening slightly.

It felt like he had lost something very precious.

Something... he thought he possessed.

But in reality, he had never owned it.

He had gotten too close.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

So he thought he possessed it.

That's why he never reached out to grab it, because it was right before his eyes, so whether he grasped it or not made no difference.

But...

This treasure had flown away.

She had actually flown away.

Right before his eyes, he remained motionless, watching her fly away.

Fly into someone else's home.

Gray Tail felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his entire being in disarray.

"Gray Tail, look at this..." Zhou Ziyou hadn't finished her sentence when she saw Gray Tail turn and leave without a backward glance.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"Gray Tail!"

Zhou Ziyou stood dazed, following him to the door.

Outside in the hallway, Gray Tail's figure had already disappeared.

Zhou Ziyou didn't understand what was wrong with him, and he didn't answer her calls.

That evening, a heavy rain began to fall.

Although, they would eventually have to part ways.

Yes, even if they were siblings, they couldn't live together forever, they had to separate.

But she hadn't anticipated that their separation would come so suddenly, so completely out of the blue, too abrupt.

"So where will you go now? Do you have a place to stay? Let's talk about this tomorrow, okay?"

Gray Tail remained silent.

After finishing his packing, he looked at Zhou Ziyou deeply, a thin layer of moisture in his eyes, then turned and left.

"Gray Tail!" Zhou Ziyou's eyes were also turning red. She followed him to the door, "You have to... take care of yourself. If you need anything, come find me. I really do care for you like a brother."

That last sentence made Gray Tail uncomfortable at this moment, even though it had never bothered him before. Now, he felt quite annoyed by it.

He looked down at her, his voice muffled, "Sorry, I never saw you as a sister."

"What?" Zhou Ziyou felt hurt.

"Are you a white-eyed wolf?"

Gray Tail averted his gaze, softly saying, "I guess I am."

Zhou Ziyou grew angry. "You're the white-eyed wolf, have I not been good to you? I treat you like a brother, cooking meat for you!"

"Then don't treat me like your brother anymore, who wants to be your brother," Gray Tail said, pursing his lips before striding away.

Zhou Ziyou was truly furious now.

"You ungrateful brat, how dare you!" She ran after him, raining blows on his back and arms. "I'll beat you to death! How dare you treat me like this! You too!"

Thinking of her family, Zhou Ziyou felt heartbroken. "You're just like them!"

Gray Tail let her hit him, not fighting back or saying a word.

Zhou Ziyou cursed at him, "You stubborn mule! Mute!"

"You old man!"

Gray Tail couldn't hold back anymore, saying, "Go ahead and hit me! It doesn't matter, you're not my sister, I don't want you to be my sister!"

Caught up in her anger, Zhou Ziyou lost her reason too, furiously retorting, "You don't want me as your sister, then what do you want me to be? Your wife?"

Gray Tail froze, lowering his head, his ears turning red.

He touched his nose, nodding mutely.

He admitted it, "Yeah."

He wanted that.

He really wanted that.

Hahaha Gray Tail, you want a wife, don't you?
