Rui Chen Yang arrived at the hotel in the evening. Zuo Zi Wu got into his car and followed him to a private club.

It was said that this club was opened by a friend of his. At first, it was just a place for a group of friends to enjoy themselves, but gradually, a lot of business celebrities came to join them, and it became a fixed place for them to meet. It became more and more popular, and it was now one of the most important clubs in Ming City.

Zuo Zixian was only wearing the simplest of dresses, light beige and the high heels were the same color, his fair skin was accentuated by the makeup on his face, and his long hair draped over his shoulders casually. When he and Rui Chenyang appeared at the club's entrance, they attracted a lot of people's attention.

He had to admit that there were a lot of people, both men and women, the large number of people seemed to be very familiar to Rui Chenyang, and the Left Scholar had already spent close to half an hour greeting them. Luckily, Rui Chen Yang placed her on a sofa in the corner, allowing her to rest for a while.

"Zhi Wu, I'm sorry, these are my friends, I'm afraid you will have to make do with me tonight." He held a glass of red wine in front of her and smiled at her.

Zuo Zixian shook his head, his eyes glimmering as he looked at the men and women coming and going, "It's nothing, actually it's good to get to know more friends."

Although she didn't like occasions with so many people, she didn't want to embarrass Rui Chen Yang, nor did she want to disappoint him. Besides, under her current state of mind, there was a place for her to kill time and divert her attention.

Rui Chen Yang nodded, then was called over by a man his age not too far away. He apologized to Zuo Zi Shi and walked over.

This club had restaurants and entertainment venues. It seemed like those people all came to eat, while she and Rui Chenyang didn't seem to be hungry, so they just ate some dessert.

When they had their fill, those people suggested setting up the stage to play mahjong. The whole place was bustling with noise and excitement, and Rui Chen Yang was also one of them.

They played a lot of cards, and there was a rule that whoever won would be given money. As long as they were present, everyone would get a share of the money.

However, when the money was given to Zuo Zixian, she refused to take it. This made the atmosphere a little awkward, and someone started teasing Rui Chenyang: "Chen Yang, this companion of yours is quite strange."

That money wasn't much for the rich, but it was still tens of thousands of dollars. Some of the girls beside him had already happily taken it, and only Zuo Zisheng insisted on not taking it.

Rui Chen Yang maintained his gentle smile as he explained to the group of people slowly: "Don't make things difficult for her, she's not used to it."

Hearing him say that, everyone mumbled, but no one dared to not give Rui Chenyang face, so they stopped messing with Zuo Zixian.

He easily helped her get out of her predicament, allowing Zuo Zixian to relax a lot. However, he also knew that the first time he came here, he broke their rules, thinking that no matter what, he couldn't come here again.

There were a few rich and young people who had toasted to Zuo Zi Wu a few times, wanting to get to know her, but they were all politely rejected by her. All of this was reflected in Rui Chenyang's eyes who was sitting on the table, and a faint smile was hidden in his eyes.

She would reject everyone, but she would not reject him. This meant that he had the opportunity to become the man by her side.

By the time the group dispersed, it was already past 11 PM, and Zuo Zizhen was already drowsily sitting on the sofa. Rui Chen Yang rejected the invitation of the others to have another round of drinks and told them to go and drink as much as they wanted.

The window of the car was opened to let in some fresh air. Zuo Zixian felt a lot more awake from the cold wind and also felt a lot more comfortable.

"Chen Yang, thank you for helping me today." The hair that was blown by the wind fluttered in the wind, there were a few strands that stuck to her blue and white porcelain cheeks, looking very alluring.

Rui Chen Yang just shook his head and smiled, "I shouldn't have let my friends mess with you. In fact, it's just for fun, I hope it doesn't affect your mood."

He could see that she was in a bad mood, so he wanted to take her there to change his mood, but he could tell that he shouldn't have taken her there.

"Of course not, I had a lot of fun... The wine over there is not bad, and your friends are all very friendly. " She did not want to embarrass Rui Chen Yang.

"When are you going back to France?" he asked her, stopping at the red light.

Zuo Zizhen's heart stopped, only then did he remember this matter that he couldn't avoid. Yeah, she's been here for a few days, so it's about time she went back.

She shrugged her shoulders. "I think we should go back tomorrow or the next day. I should go back as well. The winery still has a lot of things to deal with."

Her expression was somewhat unnatural. Rui Chen Yang could see that, but he did not reveal it. He just suggested that he send her to the airport.

Zuo Zixian wanted to refuse, but after thinking for a while, he still agreed.

She thought, maybe she should have given Rui Chen Yang a chance, shouldn't keep him a thousand miles away. Besides, he was clearly the most suitable person for her right now.

When they arrived at the entrance of the hotel, Rui Chen Yang suggested that they take a walk in the nearby garden. Zuo Zi Xing immediately agreed, since she couldn't sleep right now.

The two walked side by side in silence under the moonlight. The night breeze was cool and refreshing, making people's mood much more open.

They walked to the river, which was reflecting the moonlight, and Zuo Zixian could not help but take a deep breath when he saw their shadows.

He raised his head and looked at Rui Chen Yang, there was another burst of glare.

He really did have a natural disposition and was dressed in simple casual attire. However, he was dressed elegantly, and his clothes were as white as snow, making him look extremely handsome.

If … How good it would be for her to fall in love with him.

Noticing her gaze, Rui Chen Yang turned his head, his clear eyes moving across her face, a smile on his lips.

After a while, Zuo Zixian realised that his face was actually close to his, and his lips were only a few centimeters away from his own!

She took a quick step back, stumbling. Luckily, Rui Chen Yang held her hand in time and prevented her from falling.

His eyes darkened, and with an apologetic tone, he said, "I'm sorry, Zixian. It was my fault, I shouldn't have forgotten."

Zuo Zixian pulled out his hand and laughed dryly, "I'm fine."

For a moment, the two of them seemed to fall into silence.

She lowered her eyelashes and avoided his gaze, feeling an inexplicable sense of guilt.

"Zhi Wu, I need to remind you of something." His clear and melodious voice suddenly cut through the stagnation in the air, his tone carrying a trace of solemnity.

Zuo Zixian turned his head to look at him in puzzlement, using his eyes to signal for him to make things clear.

Rui Chen Yang paused, then said: "I know I shouldn't say it, but I don't want you to get hurt."

Her eyes widened as she waited for him to continue.

He sighed and continued, "You should stay away from Ling Yi. There will be no conclusion between you and him. He and his fiancée have been engaged for three years, and that is the choice of his mother, who may soon be married. "

Under his calm expression, Rui Chen Yang hid a subtle ripple, but that ripple was too faint, so faint that even he himself was not aware of it, only maintaining his usual smile. His tone was full of the love he had for Zuo Zixian.

His words were calm, but it set off a wave in Zuo Zixian's heart.

He didn't need to remind her to know about this matter. Deep in her heart, she had a vague feeling that Ling Yi Heng would marry a Mika, but she had always been unwilling to face it directly. Or perhaps, it could be said that Ling Yi Heng didn't want her to face it. Faintly, a suffocating feeling began to envelop her heart.

After a long while, she smiled. "I know, Chen Yang, there's nothing going on between us."

Of course he could hear the pretense of ease in her voice, but he was considerate enough not to point it out. The two of them walked by the river for a while before Zuo Zixian felt tired and decided to return to the hotel.

He walked her downstairs to the hotel and watched her get on the elevator before she left.

The moment he returned to his hotel room, Zuo Zizhen threw himself onto the bed without taking off his shoes, his mind was in a mess thinking about what Rui Chen Yang had said just now, and then he thought about the scene of Ling Yi Heng and Mika dating, and he felt unspeakably uncomfortable.

She was so thirsty that she couldn't find any water, so she had to drink the whiskey that was sold at the hotel in her room. She drank it down directly from the bottle.

After drinking it, her consciousness also gradually faded away. In the end, she didn't have enough time to feel her sadness and fell into a deep slumber.

One night she slept until noon.

The hotel room service rang the doorbell for a long time before Zuo Zixian staggered to open the door.

She was told that the room had expired and asked if she needed to continue living there.

She called the front desk to confirm, stayed another day, then went back to bed.

She slept until the afternoon before she had the strength to get out of bed. When she opened her phone, she saw a message from Rui Chenyang asking her if she was sleeping well.

After replying to the message, she called Tabolte and told her that she had decided to go back the next day. She also asked if she had anything she could take back with her.

After making sure that Tabolte had no special needs, she booked herself a plane ticket and packed her luggage.

Having booked a flight back to France at nine o'clock the next morning, she felt a little down.

Unconsciously, she thought of the times she had spent with him in Ling Yiheng's home these past few days, and she actually felt a lot of reluctance. Thinking about the details of these past few days, it was like the daily life of a couple.

He shouldn't have thought about those people, but he just couldn't let them go.

Trying not to think about these things, she neatly packed most of her luggage and waited for tomorrow's departure.
