She didn't move, and neither did Zhan Haoze.
Shi Mengwan gritted her teeth. The cold wind gave her a headache. In the end, she could only go around to the other side of the car and get in.
She didn't speak. She turned her back to Zhan Haoze and didn't look at him. She just looked at the scenery outside the car window.
This was the direction of her home. After Shi Mengwan saw it clearly, she couldn't help but call out.
"Stop."
As soon as she asked him to stop, Zhan Haoze really stopped.
She turned to look at Zhan Haoze, wanting him to get out of the car. However, before she could say anything, Zhan Haoze actually got out of the car.
This time, it was Shi Mengwan's turn to be shocked.
Was Zhan Haoze so easy to talk to? She was a little suspicious and couldn't help but glance at Zhan Haoze.
Her gaze followed Zhan Haoze outside the car. She found that Zhan Haoze had gone to a convenience store nearby.
Shi Mengwan glanced in that direction, then wanted to sit in the driver's seat and drive away. However, she found that Zhan Haoze had actually pulled out the key.
She could only sit there without moving and look at Zhan Haoze, not understanding what he was thinking.
Zhan Haoze soon came out, and he seemed to be carrying a bag in his hand. He got into the car, threw the bag on the back seat, and started the car again.
Shi Mengwan couldn't help but look back. Unfortunately, it was too dark in the car, so she couldn't see clearly. She looked at Zhan Haoze's face again.
"Zhan Haoze."
She bit her lip and seemed to be organizing her words in her mind. "I admit that I treated you as someone else. I … "
She turned her face away, unable to continue. What did she say?
She said that she did not treat him as someone else, that he was the person in her heart.
From the age of twelve to the age of twenty-five, for the past thirteen years, she had been thinking about him every single day.
But now, she had to force herself to tell him that she only thought of him as someone else?
Zhan Haoze glanced at her with a gloomy gaze. But he went back to driving seriously.
It wasn't too far from her apartment, so it wouldn't take long for them to arrive.
The car stopped and Shi Mengwan got out of the car. Zhan Haoze got out of the car and took the bag from the back of the car seat.
Shi Mengwan reached out to take the key from Zhan Haoze's hand, but he had already stepped into the car.
It was only then that Shi Mengwan saw clearly what was in the bag in his hand. Although only a corner was revealed, it was enough for her to see it clearly.
Looking at the boxes of ultra-thin Okamoto, she blushed and quickly followed Zhan Haoze.
"You …"
"Zhan Haoze."
Zhan Haoze walked quickly. He entered the apartment building in a few steps and pressed the button for the elevator.
"Zhan Haoze. Can we talk? "
Shi Mengwan bit her lip. She still wanted to say something, but the elevator came down and someone came out.
When he saw Zhan Haoze and the other man, he took another look at them. The combination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman was always more eye-catching.
"…"
Shi Mengwan couldn't say anything else. She lowered her head and stood a step behind Zhan Haoze.
The man had left. Zhan Haoze entered the elevator. Shi Mengwan stood there without moving for a long time.
Outside the elevator, Zhan Haoze and she looked at each other. The last person to admit defeat was Shi Mengwan. She stood in.
She felt powerless. This feeling of helplessness made her not in the mood to speak until she entered the house.
The moment she entered the door, she stood at the door and looked at Zhan Haoze, who seemed to have entered an uninhabited land.
"Zhan Haoze. Let's have a good talk? Okay? "
Zhan Haoze casually placed the bag in his hand on the coffee table, then walked to her and stood in front of her.
Shi Mengwan closed her eyes. When she opened them again, there was a hint of determination in her beautiful almond-shaped eyes.
"I'm sorry, I said it just now. I treated you as someone else. Maybe my behavior wasn't appropriate and made you misunderstand. I apologize to you. I hope you understand that I'm not a prostitute, and I'm not a very casual woman. "
Shi Mengwan didn't want to continue pestering him. She would rather lower her stance first.
She didn't quite understand what Zhan Haoze was thinking. No matter what, she felt that the way the two of them got along wasn't normal.
Every time they met, they would have sex, and after sleeping, they would split their things.
She thought that if she said this, he would understand. She looked up at Zhan Haoze and found that he was standing still.
"Zhan Haoze?"
"Are you done?"
She didn't express herself clearly?
"What I mean is, Zhan Haoze, this is my home, my place. I hope you can leave this place now."
Zhan Haoze looked at her face, which obviously wanted to chase him away, and took a step forward.
Shi Mengwan's back leaned against the door. She was 1.7 meters tall, but in front of Zhan Haoze, who was 1.8 meters tall, she wasn't tall enough.
She raised her head and looked at him. "Zhan Haoze, it's getting late. Please …"
A kiss landed on her lips. Shi Mengwan quickly reacted after a momentary daze.
She struggled with all her might, and her movements were more intense than before.
Zhan Haoze had no choice but to stop because of her interference. However, he didn't let go of her. Instead, he placed his hands on both sides of her body.
"Zhan Haoze." Shi Mengwan felt that she had already made her words very clear. "I've already said it. I just treat you as someone else. I –"
Her lips were pressed against his again. He was grinding against her lips with a force that made her feel pain.
"Wu wu."
She looked at him with a cold gaze.
He was also looking at her, not giving in at all.
It was almost a stalemate.
She felt pain and opened her mouth to bite him.
He retreated and took her again.
In the end, Shi Mengwan was the first to lose. She was panting and her legs were weak. She almost couldn't stand.
His big hand was on her waist. He wrapped her in his arms and didn't let her fall from his arms to the ground.
"Zhan –"
After kissing for too long, her voice felt a little hoarse. She swallowed her saliva.
Zhan Haoze's hand caressed her captivating red lips. His slightly cold fingertips gently brushed past, causing Shi Mengwan's body to tremble uncontrollably.
"You treat me as someone else?"
Zhan Haoze moved closer to her, his hand still on her lips. He narrowed his eyes and stared at her face.
"Yes." Shi Mengwan nodded. She looked away and didn't look at Zhan Haoze's face. "I treated you as someone else. Now I know that you're not, so let's just leave it at that."
"You want to end it?"
Zhan Haoze's voice was low. Shi Mengwan bit her lip and nodded again.
She didn't speak, and Zhan Haoze didn't speak either.
The room was very quiet. The air conditioner wasn't turned on. Shi Mengwan had been leaning against the door and felt a little cold. She subconsciously twisted her body.
Her waist tightened, and Zhan Haoze once again pulled her into his arms. He suddenly moved closer, and the distance between their faces was less than a centimeter.
"Treat me as someone else?" He asked again.
"Yes." Shi Mengwan gritted her teeth and turned to look at him with a firm gaze.
She saw the corners of Zhan Haoze's lips curl up slightly. His forehead pressed against hers. "If that's the case, then why don't you continue being someone else?"
Shi Mengwan was speechless. She didn't know what she could answer. The moment Zhan Haoze was about to pick her up, she realized that something was wrong.
"No, don't. No way. "
"Why?"
Zhan Haoze stopped for a moment, still staring at her face.
"Anyway, no way."
Shi Mengwan pressed her hands against his chest. Her mind couldn't think very fast at this moment.
His aura, his embrace, and his kiss would make her unable to think.
"You have a fiancée."
Yes, that was the reason. As if she had an idea, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Zhan Haoze.
"You already have a fiancée. You can't do this. "
Zhan Haoze's reaction was to pick her up forcefully and bring her into the room.
"Zhan Haoze."
"I don't have a fiancée."
"Chen …"
He didn't give her a chance to ask. He kissed her lips. When he passed by the coffee table, he gently hooked his pinky finger and picked up the bag of condoms.
… …
Shi Mengwan felt cold when she slept until midnight. She turned over and instinctively moved her body closer to the heat source.
She felt like she was surrounded by someone. The warm chest made her no longer feel cold. She almost sighed as she pressed her face against the heat source.
This pillow was really comfortable to hug. Shi Mengwan rubbed her face against the pillow, but she felt that something was wrong.
It was firm and warm, broad and strong. This wasn't the touch of a pillow.
She suddenly opened her eyes. What she saw was a piece of wheat-colored skin. She could even see two thin scratches on it. She had left them yesterday.
Realizing this, she instinctively took a step back.
The hand on her back made it impossible for her to retreat. She looked up and saw Zhan Haoze's enlarged face in front of her.
She panicked for some reason and started to pull his hand.
She clearly wanted to make things clear with Zhan Haoze yesterday, but in the end, the two of them rolled together again?
This wasn't what she wanted. Shi Mengwan felt a headache coming on.
Zhan Haoze's hand was taken away by her, but in the next second, it landed on her shoulder. Her body was pressed back, and her body was suppressed by someone.
The man had woken up at some point. He was lying on top of her and staring at her face with a burning gaze.
"Let go of me."
Seeing that he didn't let go of her, Shi Mengwan looked up at him.
"Zhan Haoze, why aren't you leaving?"
"Do you think I'm that kind of casual woman?"
Seeing that Zhan Haoze's brows furrowed, she reached out to push him again. "Zhan Haoze, don't you mind if I think you're another man?"
"I already answered this question yesterday."
As Zhan Haoze spoke, he lowered his head and bit her shoulder.
The force wasn't strong, but it made her feel a little pain.
"You …" Shi Mengwan was furious and spoke without thinking. "What kind of woman do you want? Let's not talk about others. Chen Feifei is your girlfriend, right? Aren't you afraid that she'll be unhappy if you know what you're doing to me here? "
Zhan Haoze stopped for a moment. There was a flash of darkness in his eyes.
"Don't mention her."
What happened between them had nothing to do with Chen Feifei.
"I don't want to mention her either." Shi Mengwan's emotions were complicated. "But the problem is, she's your girlfriend, isn't she?"
Zhan Haoze's face moved closer to her. "Do you mind?"
"I mind." Shi Mengwan looked at his face and didn't want to say that she minded very much. "But this isn't because I have deep feelings for you, but because I don't want to be a mistress."
No woman would like to be a mistress, and she was no exception.
Zhan Haoze stared at her face for a long time and finally said, "She has heart disease."
This could be considered an explanation. After saying that, he lowered his head and kissed her shoulder again.
Shi Mengwan, however, heard a different answer at this time.
So that was how it was.
Chen Feifei had heart disease. Perhaps she couldn't exercise vigorously.
What about Zhan Haoze? The two of them had done it so many times, so she could understand that his desire was very strong. Her health wasn't bad, but she begged for mercy under him every time.
If Chen Feifei had heart disease, how could she bear it?
Her heart felt as if it had been cut by him with a knife, and it hurt dully.
She was lying to him when she said that she treated him as someone else. But he really treated her as a prostitute.
She was just a substitute that Zhan Haoze found because he pitied Chen Feifei. She was a woman who helped him solve his desire.
Her heart hurt. It was so painful that even her body's senses became dull.
The man didn't notice her absent-mindedness and pain. It was like a sword that split her apart. Then, he pulled it into pieces.
She was broken into pieces. From body to heart, she would never be complete again.
..
Time passed by a few more days, and it was New Year's Day. Shi Mengwan's studio also had three days off.
She originally wanted to go and play with Su Qingsang, but Su Qingsang went to Japan with Xiang Caiping.
Before going, she asked Shi Mengwan if she wanted to go with her. Shi Mengwan knew that this was a trip that Su Qingsang wanted to improve her relationship with Xiang Caiping, so how could she be so blind?
She drove herself back to her home.
Compared to the five or six hours it took to return home thirteen years ago, the distance of the repaired highway was shortened by nearly half.
It only took Shi Mengwan more than two hours to drive home.
Shi Mengwan's mother was very happy to see her. As usual, Shi Mengwan bought a lot of things and gave her parents a lot of supplements, as well as some specialties that could only be bought in Lin City.
She usually sent them a lot, but it was different to bring them back herself.
This time, Shi Mengwan really wanted to stay for two more days to celebrate New Year's Day with her family.
Although such a new year was not popular in a small place, her parents were very happy to see her. They slaughtered chickens and fish, and her sister, Shi Mengru, was also very happy.
They kept surrounding her and calling her sister, asking her to stay for two more days. Shi Mengwan agreed, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes.
She had only stayed for a day when she received a call from a client. The other party asked her to rush an urgent letter.
That was an old client who had established a good working relationship with Xun Ge since the establishment of the studio.
After Shi Mengwan helplessly explained to her parents, she returned to Lin City again under her mother's disappointed gaze.
This time, she didn't alarm the other employees. She went straight back to the studio to meet the client. She wrote down all the other party's requests.
Because it was an urgent letter, Shi Mengwan returned to her office and began to prepare to draw.
Before she started, she scrolled through her WeChat Moments. She saw the pictures Su Qingsang posted, the hot springs in Japan, and the wooden plaques for prayer in Sensoji Temple.
She casually clicked like. When she saw the cherry blossom patterns, Shi Mengwan was inspired.
When she drew, she always didn't care. Time passed by for a few hours, but she didn't notice.
Her phone vibrated a few times, but she didn't notice.
The sun was setting, and the lights were on in the room. Shi Mengwan didn't notice that the neon lights were already shining outside.
She spent a few hours to make the first draft interesting. Then, she decided on the fabric and the materials needed for the accessories.
It was all done. She looked at the manuscript and was very satisfied.
Whether it was designing a gown or a wedding dress for the client, most of the time, it was based on the client's ideas. Although that also gave her a sense of accomplishment.
But suddenly having her own inspiration like this and drawing a picture that she was very satisfied with made her even happier.
She saved the manuscript into the computer, encrypted the information, and saved it.
After packing up everything, Shi Mengwan realized that she had been sitting for too long. Her arms and back were a little stiff.
Especially her legs, they were extremely numb. She tried to stand up, but she sucked in a breath of cold air.
In such a situation, she could only wait for her legs to go numb.
Shi Mengwan looked at the time. It was already past nine o 'clock in the evening. She didn't expect that she would draw for a few hours.
Her feet were so numb that she was wondering if she should call for a courier first. However, she heard a sound outside the office.
Shi Mengwan was shocked. She looked outside the office and was afraid for a moment.
The studio wasn't big, but because this office building was rented to her by one of her clients, the rent was relatively cheaper than outside.
The place wasn't particularly big, but because Shi Mengwan paid attention to the privacy of every designer.
She specially rented a two-story space that was high. Every designer was drawing on the second floor. Her office was at the innermost part.
Downstairs was the exhibition hall, as well as the reception room. Hearing the noise, Shi Mengwan felt nervous.
She suddenly remembered that when she went upstairs to draw, she didn't close the door of the studio.
At this time, was the person who came here a thief or someone else?
No matter which one it was, it was enough to scare Shi Mengwan. After all, she was the only one here.
Her first reaction when she picked up her phone was to call the police. But before calling the police, she should first find a place to hide, right?
She heard the sound of footsteps going upstairs, and she became more and more nervous. The place to turn on and off the lights was at the door.
She was anxious to turn off the lights and close the door. However, the numbness in her feet still hadn't passed. Waves after waves.
Shi Mengwan felt extremely uncomfortable, and she was afraid and anxious. Her back was even covered in a layer of sweat.
Seeing that the footsteps were getting closer and closer, she gritted her teeth and stood up, wanting to run to the door. She quickly closed the door before the person came.
Shi Mengwan dragged her numb legs around the desk. Just as her hand touched the door, the person outside had already come in.
She panicked and instinctively went to close the door. The door was pushed by someone skillfully. She was caught off guard, and her feet were numb. Her body actually fell backwards.
She thought that she would fall for sure, but someone was one step faster to support her body.
She was stunned for a moment. When she saw Zhan Haoze's familiar face, she suddenly exploded.
"You, you, you …" she said a few words consecutively. Her feet were so numb that she couldn't stand up.
The aftereffects of fear made her body weak. She gritted her teeth, raised her hand, and punched Zhan Haoze's shoulder.
"B * stard, you b * stard. Do you know that you scared me to death? You're too much of a b * stard. You b * stard! "
She didn't know many curse words, so she repeated the word 'b * stard' over and over again.
She relaxed, and her feet went limp. She was about to slide down again. Zhan Haoze quickly picked her up.
He placed her on the chair in front of the desk. "What's wrong with you?"
Shi Mengwan couldn't say anything. She just felt terrified. Just now, she really thought that a bad person had come.
She lowered her head, and her eyes were a little red. No matter how strong she was, she wasn't a woman.
Her heart was beating very fast and anxiously. It took her a few minutes to calm her heart down.
She looked up at Zhan Haoze and swallowed her saliva. She finally calmed down a little.
"You, what are you doing here?"
If he hadn't suddenly appeared just now, she wouldn't have been so scared.
The last time he woke up on her bed, he pressed down on her again, and when she went into the bathroom to take care of herself, he left as quietly as before.
She wouldn't be as disappointed as she was the first time.
She understood one thing. In Zhan Haoze's heart, she was Chen Feifei's substitute. She was just taking on his expectations for Chen Feifei.
Was it sad? Was it sad?
Was it sad? She felt bad.
But no matter how sad or uncomfortable she felt, she was the one who asked for it. She was the one who gave him a chance.
But if she did it again, she would probably still make the same choice. She missed her Dear Brother too much.
Even if there was only a sliver of a chance, she would try her best to get close to her Dear Brother.
She looked at Zhan Haoze, but she couldn't control her tone. There was a hint of rebuke in it.
Zhan Haoze looked at her pale face. "Are you okay?"
She didn't seem to be well.
"I'm fine." Shi Mengwan was no longer afraid, but her expression didn't recover so quickly. "You haven't told me yet. Why are you here?"
"I called you, but you didn't answer."
He called her? When did that happen?
Shi Mengwan's phone was placed on the desk. She reached out and picked it up. There were indeed a few missed calls.
However, they were all unfamiliar numbers. She couldn't help but look up at Zhan Haoze.
"Is this your phone number?"
"Yes."
Zhan Haoze nodded, took her phone, and saved his number.
Shi Mengwan looked at his actions and entered his full name. Zhan Haoze.
It was an extremely unfamiliar title that showed their current relationship.
She didn't stop him, but in her heart, she decided to block his number later.
"Why are you looking for me?"
"I went to your house, but you weren't there."
This sentence could be considered an explanation. Shi Mengwan watched him put down his phone. She was sitting, and he was standing. In comparison, he was much taller than her.
The pressure was very strong, and she didn't like it.
"Why did you go to my house again?"
She tried her best not to sound so resentful. "If you want a woman, you can go find a prostitute. No, with your conditions, as long as you wave your hand, there should be many women for you to choose. Isn't that so? "
Although she didn't understand how Qiao Ze had become the current Zhan Haoze.
She also didn't understand how the Dear Brother who had nothing back then had become an elite in the business world.
But even without these external blessings, just Zhan Haoze's face alone could attract many women, right?
Why did he insist on clinging to her?
Zhan Haoze narrowed his eyes and frowned because of her words.
