"That's good then." Leng Zhiyuan was relieved, and she wanted to take her hand back.
At this moment, Ye Ziyi used force as he held her hand and said, "Zhiyuan."
"Yeah?" Leng Zhiyuan raised her head up.
"Zhiyuan, both the Leng and Zhou families will no longer be in trouble after this. What are you going to do? This poisoning case has serious implications. Someone has to take responsibility."
"I know. If I am not able to escape, then I will accept it."
"How can you be like that? Zhiyuan, I will definitely come and save you."
Leng Zhiyuan shook her head and said, "Director Ye, there is no need. I've always known of the feelings you have for me. I am very thankful, but I have already explained everything. Although I was in a contract marriage with Zhou Yao, I really fell in love with him. I am unable to accept you, so I am also unable to accept your good intentions."
As she spoke, she took her hand back and turned around.
"Zhiyuan, I understand, but I am not asking for anything in return for what I am doing for you. I am doing everything for you willingly. I will definitely think of a plan to save you." Ye Ziyi was firm and gentle as he spoke.
"Director Ye, are you really so persistent?" Leng Zhiyuan turned around all of a sudden.
Ye Ziyi froze.
"Director Ye, if you are so persistent in doing so, then I have a plan."
Ye Ziyi quickly regained his senses and said, "What plan?"
"Place your ear closer; I will tell you softly. Although this plan is dangerous, I believe that with your intelligence, you should be able to execute it perfectly, without any mistakes. Director Ye, I am relying on you."
...
Ye Ziyi left, and Leng Zhiyuan continued to sit in the corner. The food was not bad, and she would eat till she was full for every meal to save her energy.
Someone came over in the afternoon. Leng Zhiyuan raised her gaze to look over. When she had a clear look, it was the Zhou family that was here, and she was not surprised.
Ye Ziyi's speed was extremely quick. He'd already brought the news out. The news of her being in a fake marriage with Zhou Yao would probably have spread through the entire city, and the danger that the Zhou family was in was taken care of.
Old Master Zhou aged considerably during this, but his mental state was still fine. He held onto the walking stick as he looked at her, and he felt extremely bad. His moustache was shaking. Old Master Zhou had many things to say, but at this moment, he could only sigh loudly despite it all.
Master Zhou supported Old Master Zhou's left arm. They were all people who had been through big waves and challenges, the trouble this time did not leave much behind on their faces, but it was obvious that the poison in Zhou Yao's body and this contract marriage shocked them all. Master Zhou's eyebrows were tightly knitted up and contained his extreme disappointment, fatigue, and pain.
Both men did not know what to say and were not able to say much, but Madam Zhou was different. Her eyes were red for a long time. She used both of her hands to grab the bars of the jail cell. Her tears were flowing as she looked at Leng Zhiyuan and said, "Zhiyuan, this child..."
Leng Zhiyuan stepped forward. She rolled up her sleeves and helped Madam Zhou wipe her tears away as she said, "Mum, Dad, Grandpa, I am sorry. I was the one who fooled you all."
Madam Zhou held Leng Zhiyuan's hand tight and said, "You and Zhou Yao were really so bold. Marriage is a huge matter, and both of you treated it as child's play. What do you all want us to say?"
"Mum." Leng Zhiyuan's nose turned sour as she said, "Originally, both me and Zhou Yao planned to get our marriage certificate a few days ago, but the matter could not go on as we wished. It seems that I was unlucky."
"Zhiyuan, don't say that. Our Zhou family is an influential family, but our thinking is also not stubborn. At the beginning, it was true that we forced you two too much. We do not blame you two for getting into a contract marriage, but we have eyes. In the past three months, the relationship that you had with Zhou Yao got better and better, and you... once bore a child for Zhou Yao. Isn't it just a marriage certificate that is lacking? In our eyes, you will forever be the good daughter-in-law of our Zhou family."
The tears in Leng Zhiyuan's eyes flowed silently. She nodded her head and said, "Yeah, in my heart, you all will forever be my grandpa, father, and mother."
Ever since she married into the Zhou family, this family treated her very well and allowed her to feel taken care of. The care and love that they had for her, she had long thought of this family as her relatives.
She was so lucky that she met Zhou Yao and this family.
"Mum, the poison in Zhou Yao's body, I am sorry..."
Other than saying sorry, she did not know what else to say. Although she believed that her father would not poison Zhou Yao, after all, her father could not say that he was completely not involved with this matter, so she owed this family an apology.
Madam Zhou wept on her own and even stretched her hand out to help Leng Zhiyuan wipe her tears away as she said, "Good child, Mum knows that this time, you have suffered and have been grievanced. Him getting poisoned, you don't have to explain it. The Leng family and you are our choices. We believe your choice, and we believe you. Child, you spread the news of you two being in a contract marriage, and you wanted to distance yourself from us. You wanted to save us and protect us. Could we not understand your feelings? One family does not speak differently, and there are some things that we do not have to say too much about."
"Yeah, yeah!" Leng Zhiyuan firmly nodded her head. This was great. It felt really very good for her to have the support and understanding of this family.
"Zhiyuan, " At this moment, Old Master Zhou and Master Zhou stepped forward and said, "Your matters, Zhou Yao's matters, we can't do much about them, but there is something that you have to remember. As long as both of you are back, the main doors of the Zhou home will always be open."
...
Han Xuan came back from the jail cell and stayed inside her ward for the entire table. After the emergency resuscitation, Zhou Yao already passed the danger period, but he was still in a coma.
Han Xuan sat down by the side of the bed and lowered her gaze to look at Zhou Yao, who was asleep. In a few days, his firm chin had a layer of stubble on it, but it did not affect his handsomeness, and it added some touch of masculine charm.
She slowly stretched her hand out to touch his features, his full forehead, proper and handsome eyebrows, his tall nose that was just like the peak of a mountain... She'd met many handsome men before, but she really had not seen anyone so manly, pure, and with such a good family background like him.
Zhou Yao...
She chanted his name inside her heart silently.
A young nurse ran over hurriedly and said, "Older Sister Han, there is news."
Han Xuan stood up quickly and looked at the young nurse nervously as she asked, "What news?"
"It turns out that Major General Zhou and Leng Zhiyuan were in a fake marriage. They were in a contract marriage that lasted three months, and now this piece of news has spread throughout T City."
Han Xuan relaxed completely. She used her right hand to touch her chest as she panted for large breaths of air. It turned out that this was true. They were really in a fake marriage!
Leng Zhiyuan finally said it out loud, she finally confessed to it!
Haha.
Ever since she was sent to another city by Zhou Yao, she was living in a nightmare. She was jealous and did not want to accept it. She did not understand how a man that she'd known for the past ten years was conquered by a woman that he only knew for three months.
She was extremely depressed, and she was feeling down until some time not long ago when there was a note that was placed in her room.
There were two sentences on the note — Miss Han, congratulations, Zhou Yao has been poisoned with a flower poison, and very quickly, you will be summoned back. Also, Zhou Yao and Leng Zhiyuan were in a contract marriage; your chance is here!
