Long Chen only left Zhao Churan's house at midnight.
He sneaked to Li Yuechan's bedroom without alerting anyone.
To Long Chen, this was as easy as blowing off dust.
Then, Long Chen reached out and gently knocked on the door.
After a while, Li Yuechan opened the door and yawned. She squinted her eyes and looked unhappy. "Mom, what's wrong?"
"It's me. "
Long Chen said softly.
Li Yuechan's sleepiness disappeared instantly and her beautiful eyes widened.
Then, Li Yuechan quickly reacted and pulled Long Chen into the room and closed the door.
"Why did you come back?"
Li Yuechan held back her tears and stared at Long Chen.
"If I don't come back, you'll marry someone else."
Long Chen said.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. "
Li Yuechan lowered her head.
"Tell me, what happened? I don't believe that you're marrying him because you're in love with him."
Long Chen said.
"How can you be so confident? You've been gone for three years. How many three years can a woman have?"
Li Yuechan clenched her fists.
"This is indeed my fault. So you're planning to marry someone else because of this?" Long Chen asked.
"I ....
Li Yuechan opened her mouth but could not say anything.
"Yuechan, I can tell from your eyes that you still love me. No matter what happens, you have to tell me. I can solve all the problems."
Long Chen said softly.
"It's not a difficult problem. It's just that I've fallen in love with Zhou Haiyang. It's as simple as that."
Li Yuechan said through gritted teeth.
"Are you serious?" Long Chen's face froze.
"I'm serious. You can go now. Don't come looking for me again. Our fate has come to an end.
Be together with Zhao Churan. "
Li Yuechan turned around, her back facing Long Chen.
"Alright," he said.
Long Chen turned around and left without any hesitation.
Li Yuechan quickly ran to the window to look at Long Chen's back.
However, Long Chen had already disappeared into the night in another direction.
Li Yuechan lay on the bed, her heart aching.
How could she fall in love with Zhou Haiyang? She just didn't want to hurt Long Chen.
"Yuechan, who were you talking to just now?"
Han Min's voice came from the door.
"Mom, No... No one. "
Li Yuechan hurriedly wiped her tears.
"Why is the door open?" Han Min walked into Li Yuechan's room.
Seeing Li Yuechan's red eyes, Han Min immediately pulled a long face. "Did you change your mind again?"
"Long Chen is back."
Li Yuechan said.
"Li Yuechan, I'm warning you, don't be half-hearted. Also, although Long Chen is capable, he is still nothing compared to the Zhou family. If you let Zhou Haiyang know about Long Chen's existence, we don't know if he will be able to survive. I don't think I need to remind you what to do, do I?" Han Min said.
"Why does fate have to play with me like this? Why?"
Li Yuechan was on the verge of breaking down.
"You silly daughter, don't you think that way? When you have a firm foothold in the Zhou family and gradually have power, you can come back to Long Chen and have him secretly date you. Also, you ..."
"Don't say anymore." Li Yuechan couldn't help but interrupt Han Min. "Mom, what you said is really outrageous."
"Anyway, you should think about it carefully. Do you want Long Chen to live, or do you want him to die for your so-called love? Think about it yourself. Now, whether you two get married or not, it's not up to your father and me. Go to sleep early. "
Han Min turned around and left.
Li Yuechan was in despair and didn't know what to do.
But she knew that she couldn't let anything happen to Long Chen.
...
Long Chen's expression was cold as he left the Li family's home.
Li Yuechan said that she had fallen in love with Zhou Haiyang. He didn't believe her at all.
The reason must be that the pressure from the Zhou family was too great.
It was so big that Li Yuechan was afraid and didn't dare to resist.
? However, Long Chen wasn't afraid.
He was even a little glad that he had arrived in time.
If he had returned a month later, he might have really lost Li Yuechan.
However, Long Chen would never allow such a thing to happen.
Unless Li Yuechan truly wanted to marry Zhou Haiyang, Long Chen would definitely stop her.
Not long after, Long Chen returned to Zhao Churan's house and sneaked into bed.
Zhao Churan turned over and snuggled into Long Chen's arms. She asked in a muffled voice, "Why did you come back so quickly? I thought you were going to spend the night at Yuechan's place."
"She doesn't need me, so I came back. You won't refuse to take me in, will you?"
Long Chen teased.
"Huh?"
Zhao Churan was jolted awake. She sat up and said, "What do you mean? Has Yuechan completely drawn a clear line between you and her? Long Chen, I think Yuechan was forced to do this. The Zhou family must have put a lot of pressure on her family. You can't misunderstand her. "
"I don't want her anymore."
Long Chen pretended to be serious.
Zhao Churan was shocked. "Just because she's getting married to Zhou Haiyang, you're not even in the mood to know the truth?"
"Yeah,"
"Long Chen, you can't do this." Zhao Churan was a little anxious. Yuechan was so pitiful and in despair. In the past three years, the most difficult time was when I was with her. We talked about everything about you and slowly got through it. Originally, she could have been like me and waited for you. However, who knew that the Zhou family would suddenly appear out of nowhere? Yuechan must have said some things that you would definitely not like to hear because she was afraid that you would be implicated when you went to look for her this time. No matter what, I will not allow you to let Yuechan down. You must be good to her."
"Don't worry." Long Chen hurriedly hugged Zhao Churan. "I'm just joking. How could I not want her?"
"You scared me. Don't make such a joke in the future, or I'll really be angry."
Zhao Churan rolled her eyes at Long Chen, then snuggled back into Long Chen's arms and asked softly, "Then what do you plan to do?"
"I plan to ruin the wedding on the day of the wedding and destroy the Zhou family. It's just that simple and brutal."
Long Chen said with a smile.
"You can't be so reckless, right?" Zhao Churan hurriedly replied, "The Zhou family isn't simply wealthy. If not, they wouldn't have caused Yuechan to feel so much despair. I've heard that the Zhou family has a powerful background in the Imperial City. It's extremely terrifying."
"Even if the Zhou family is the royal family, I will make them pay the price."
Long Chen said solemnly.
"Alright, since you're so confident, I'll help you regardless of the price. I'll go home tomorrow and ask my father to help. Although my father isn't a big shot, he has some connections. More people means more power." Zhao Churan said.
"Speaking of your parents, I haven't been back for three years. I should visit them."
Long Chen said with a smile.
"You're going to pay a visit the moment I talk about asking my dad for help? You little rascal, Hmph. "
Zhao Churan pinched Long Chen.
"Don't misunderstand." Long Chen said, "I'm not going to visit your parents to ask for his help. Besides, it's better not to let him know about you, Yuechan, and me. Otherwise, I don't know what kind of trouble he'll cause. After all, they won't accept you and Yuechan both marrying me together."
"That's true, then what should we do?"
Zhao Churan felt a headache.
"You have to believe me. I'm confident. As for visiting your parents, it's out of respect. After all, I kidnapped their daughter. They have to know who kidnapped her."
Long Chen grinned.
"What do you mean kidnapped? I'm the one who brought you into my heart. Hmph, then let's go home tomorrow." Zhao Churan said happily.
She hadn't returned home for a long time, because the moment she did, she would be nagged at.
"Churan, there's one more thing. My phone has stopped working. Help me pay for the call."
"Huh?" Zhao Churan was dumbfounded.
"Ahem, I don't have a single cent." Long Chen laughed drily.
In all these years in the Northern Territory, he had never used money. Other than not being able to use his mobile phone to contact his relatives in the outside world, he could have whatever he wanted.
Zhao Churan stared at Long Chen for a few seconds, and after confirming that Long Chen wasn't joking, she burst out laughing.
"What?" Long Chen scratched his head."Are you going to charge it?"
"Yes. Call me baby."
Zhao Churan blinked her eyes.
"My baby."
"Call me wifey."
"My wifey."
"Yes, haha, you're so good. Wait for me."
Zhao Churan turned around and took her bag from the bed. After rummaging through it, she found a card and handed it to Long Chen. "Here, there's three million yuan in there. Hubby, spend as much as you want."
