Engage in Love - C143

Zhou Shunlin looked around, and in the end, his gaze quietly returned to Wei Zhenyin’s body, revealing a puzzled expression: “Yi, the last time you went back to the house, I seemed to have seen that necklace on your neck, why is it gone now?”

He must have already known that the gem on the necklace was in Shao Shihao’s hands right now, but she definitely could not speak of the truth now either. She could only feign ignorance and replied: “I did not bring that necklace.”

“Isn’t that a gift from your esteemed brother? It wouldn’t make sense if you didn’t bring it with you. ” Zhou Dewen sneered at her, as though he knew that she was looking for an excuse.

“I took the Elder Sister Wei’s necklace.” Just then, a few of them did not expect Shao Shihao who was on the bed would suddenly interrupt their conversation.

“Did she just take Xiao Yin’s necklace?” Zhou Shunlin said in an inexplicable manner.

Shao Shihao nodded her head: “I was the one who knew that Elder Sister Wei’s necklace was given to me by Honorable Big Brother. Previously, I didn’t know anything, but because I was jealous of Elder Sister Wei, I took the necklace away when Elder Sister Wei wasn’t paying attention.”

“Is that so?” Zhou Shunlin smiled at the two of them. His smile looked kind, but in reality, it was filled with a probing sense.

Wei Zhenyin didn’t think that Shao Shihao would ask so to help her. Although their relationship had improved a lot these few days, she knew that she had deliberately placed the necklace in her bag, which was beyond her expectations.

“I’m not sure either. I just can’t find it. I thought I forgot somewhere.” Wei Zhenyin replied in a smooth and kind manner.

“So that’s how it is. That necklace is very beautiful, so I asked a few more questions. Don’t think that I’m too nosy.” Zhou Shunlin deliberately laughed.

“No way, Uncle being able to come and see Shi Shi is great, I feel really happy about it.” Shao Shihao said sweetly.

Zhou Shunlin laughed in a great mood: “I still have a sweet mouth, I’m just here to visit you, but I don’t think you youngsters would like to be with us seniors, so I’ll leave first, and come visit you when I have time.”

“Take care, Uncle Zhou.” Shao Shihao laughed and said.

Only then did Zhou Shunlin bring Zhou Dewen and leave. Han Keping had mocked her for a while, but Wei Zhenyin did not pay attention to her.

For a moment, only Wei Zhenyin and Shao Shihao were left in the ward. Wei Zhenyin looked at Shao Shihao with a complicated expression: “Why did you help me just now?”

Shao Shihao blinked her eyes and revealed her usual innocent expression, “Did I help you just now?”

“You know what it is.” Wei Zhenyin said with certainty.

“Alright, it’s the Honorable Big Brother who asked me to say that.” Shao Shihao admitted it helplessly.

Wei Zhenyin was stunned for a moment. She recalled that Shao Shihao’s performance earlier did not have the slightest flaw, and if she had not thought it through in advance, she would not have said something that was so flawless. Otherwise, she would not have dispelled Zhou Shunlin’s suspicions.

However, Zhou Yuanzun had actually thought that Zhou Shunlin would come to test her, and even made Shao Shihao prepare to help her out. All of this seemed to be within his control, and Wei Zhenyin’s emotions were extremely complicated.

“Elder Sister Wei?” Shao Shihao shouted: “What’s wrong with you?”

“Thank you for today.” forced out a smile. No matter what, Shao Shihao had helped her today, if she were to be exposed, it would be a waste for her to spend so much time and effort to lay out her plans.

“Nothing, Elder Sister Wei has been taking care of me all these days, I should be the one saying thanks.” Shao Shihao suddenly said.

Wei Zhenyin also revealed a warm expression. The current Shao Shihao was different from the past, although he still had that innocent look on his face, but he seemed to be more understanding.

Ever since he returned to his home, Zhou Yuanzun seemed to be extremely busy. Every time she returned from the hospital, she would wait until midnight before seeing him. Sometimes, she would really be too sleepy on the sofa, so he would not say a word as he carried her back to her room.

Three days later, when Shao Shihao’s injuries were more or less healed, the Shao Family sent someone to bring her back, and she also needed to return to the company to find new evidence. As for the matters regarding Shao Shihao, she also needed to find an opportunity to ask Zhou Yuanzun.

When Shao Shihao returned home, Shao’s mother accompanied her all the way until they reached the living room. Only then did she sigh with emotion and say, “I’ve finally returned home.”

“Why did you come back?” Father Shao, who rarely stayed at work, was waiting in the living room. When he saw the two of them, he spoke in an unhappy voice.

“What are you talking about? Can’t you say something nice when your daughter finally returns?” Mother Shao reproached.

Father Shao angrily stood up. “What should I say that sounds good? She has been following that brat Zhou Yuanzun all day, letting others see him as a joke. When he goes overseas, she would follow him out, but now that she’s injured all over, she should know to come back? ”

“Father.” Shao Shihao said softly, “This isn’t related to the matters of the Honorable Big Brother, it’s all my fault.”

“Look, it’s already like this. She’s still thinking about that brat. He’s already married, yet you still haven’t restrained your thoughts. Don’t you feel ashamed?” Father Shao threw the newspaper in his hand angrily and growled.

Mother Shao also chimed in from the side, “Daughter, it’s not that I’m talking about you, but this time you are in the wrong. Your father is right, our Shao Family is not bad either, since Zhou Yuanzun is already married, don’t think about him anymore.”

Shao Shihao’s expression darkened, and said bitterly: “I know.”

“It’s good that you know it. Don’t meet with Zhou Yuanzun again in the future.” When Father Shao heard her say this, he restrained his temper.

“I won’t pester the Honorable Big Brother anymore, but we are still friends, how can we not meet?” Shao Shihao said with difficulty.

Father Shao said in a low voice, “I don’t care. Anyway, I won’t allow you to meet that boy surnamed Zhou again. I want to see how you are now.”

“Your father is right. Since you are willing to let go of him, then why do you want to meet him? Wasn’t he the one who caused trouble for himself? Listen to your father, don’t meet him. ” Mother Shao also echoed his words of consolation.

“Mom.” Shao Shihao’s face revealed a painful expression. Her parents had always doted on her, but this time, they didn’t know why they would actually oppose her so strongly. They actually didn’t allow her to meet with Honorable Big Brother again.

“Then it’s decided, it’s useless to say anything.” Father Shao said firmly, “Just stay at home and recuperate. If I find out that you’re pestering that Zhou kid again, you can forget about entering the house in the future.”

Wei Zhenyin returned to the Zhou’s to work, and Su Qianqian and Li Xin quickly surrounded her.

“I heard that you and the CEO came back a few days ago. The CEO was so busy these few days. On the other hand, why haven’t you come back to work these past few days?” Su Qianqian asked in a gossipy voice.

Wei Zhenyin didn’t know how to explain it, so she could only excuse herself. “Something happened, so I don’t have time for these few days.”

The two of them no longer bothered each other and after talking about the things that happened in the company the past few days, they followed Wei Zhenyin back to her job.

There was no work to be done during this period of time, so when she took over again, she was a bit new to it. However, she only needed to hone it for half a day before it went back on track.

When it was time to get off work, Wei Zhenyin was still busy. She thought that Zhou Yuanzun had been busy for the past few days, and would definitely not be an exception today. She might as well accompany him to work overtime, and then return at night.

Just as the surrounding people were about to leave, Zhou Yuanzun suddenly appeared in front of her.

Wei Zhenyin looked at him in a daze. She had not seen him for the past few days, and his face looked haggard and haggard, but his expression was still flying high. For some reason, her heart began to jump fiercely.

“What, madam doesn’t know your husband anymore?” Zhou Yuanzun teased.

“Who is your wife?” Wei Zhenyin rebuked, “There’s nothing proper all day long.”

Zhou Yuanzun showed an extremely disappointed expression, “I had originally thought that I would not be able to accompany Madam for the next few days and would have to compensate Madam today. I didn’t expect Madam to be so ungrateful.”

“Haven’t you been busy these past few days? “Why are you free today?” Wei Zhenyin looked at him doubtfully.

Zhou Yuanzun looked at her with a clear smile.

Wei Zhenyin rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, then looked at him: “Shao Shihao is released from the hospital.”

Zhou Yuanzun carelessly replied: “I know.”

“You haven’t gotten up to see her for the past few days. I can tell that she’s a little down.” Wei Zhenyin said seriously.

“Did you miss me?” Zhou Yuanzun talked about other things.

However, a hint of bitterness appeared at the corner of Wei Zhenyin’s mouth: “Zhou Yuanzun, isn’t Shao Shihao very important to you?”

“I should have also said that she’s my sister. You don’t have to be jealous of her.” Zhou Yuanzun explained carefully.

“I didn’t.” Wei Zhenyin retorted.

“No, you didn’t, but didn’t you notice that the air was filled with a sour smell?” Zhou Yuanzun looked at her, amused.

Wei Zhenyin looked at his smile and could not help but open her mouth: “Zhou Yuanzun, we were enemies at the beginning, and we are now on the same line, but why do you still want me to be infatuated with you?”

Zhou Yuanzun’s expression changed slightly as he suddenly walked into her room. He placed his hand on her cheek and asked, “Are you infatuated with me?”

“I don’t know.” Wei Zhenyin was startled, but quickly looked him in the eyes: “I have always carried out people who are fair and proper, and have never immersed myself in things, and now I don’t know, but after this mission, will I still be able to smoothly leave?”

“Why must we tell them so clearly?” Zhou Yuanzun said with an expression of temptation. “Our matter and your mission are not contradictory, are they?”

“But …” Wei Zhenyin’s brows deeply knitted together.

“Not so many, but I never thought I’d fall in love with you in the first place. These are things out of our plans, aren’t they?” Zhou Yuanzun suddenly said.

Wei Zhenyin was startled, she did not expect him to confess in such a sudden manner.

He had always called her Madam and had joked about them many times. Although she understood his intentions, this was the first time she heard him say that he loved her so openly.
