Part Two: The Great Sugar of Dongtu, Chapter 313: Tingting&a
y didn't give her the things their grandfather left her, but also cut off her financial support.”"Hmm.""I heard from YaoYao that her biological mother keeps asking her for money. She doesn't even dare...Before she could even speak, he pulled her into his arms with the force of his laptop bag, fixing her head with one hand and kissing her down, eagerly, domineeringly. He had entered the room, leaning against the doorframe, his laptop bag thrown to the floor. One hand held her head steady while the other encircled her slender waist, giving her no chance to resist.
He had been wanting to do it, no, actually, he'd wanted to for a while now. Even in the elevator just moments ago.
Her earlobes had earrings in them, making kissing impossible, so he went down instead. When a man really wants to use force, a woman is simply no match for him.
But now he was either evolved, or learned self-control, because after leaving a bright red mark on her collarbone, he stopped.
Of course, he also had ways to tame her. When she wasn't as resistant as before, he would keep it light, teasing her little by little.
In this regard, he was still confident. No one knew her body better than him, even including herself.
He let go of her after a while, pushing her out of his office and then closing and locking the door. She leaned against the door, looking down at the computer bag on the floor. A slight ache pulsed around her collarbone. She took her phone, using the camera as a mirror, and sure enough, there was a mark left by that bastard's teeth.
Looking up, she was startled by her reflection in the camera. Her red lips were slightly swollen, her cheeks flushed, and even her eyes held a hint of desire.
She patted her face, she couldn't repeat the same mistakes, she couldn't be led astray by desire.
Zhao Tingxing said that he fell in love with her again, having nothing to do with their youthful friendship;
He said that she only loved the him in her memories, not the him now, so he would make her fall in love with the him she sees today.
He reset their past to zero, back to a blank slate. He wiped away all past grievances or who was right and wrong, starting anew with a fresh identity to pursue her, seeking a new beginning.
Han Li couldn't help but ask himself, could he really start from zero
No, she didn't want to, whether she could or not. She didn't want to fall into a relationship again, even if her body reacted. She didn't want to lose herself.
After finding the answer within herself, she quickly regained her composure and dove back into her afternoon work. She had recently decided to take Han Zhao Yi back to the southwest to pay respects to her parents, who had passed away a little over a month before his birth. Looking back on many things, she realized that it was impossible to judge them as right or wrong. Mistakes were mistakes, and all she could do was force herself to move forward.
Han Zhaoyi learned that he was going to the southwest, and was very excited. He asked, "Is Zhao Tingxing also going"
Zhao Tingxing had told him a lot about things over there, and he also knew that he and his mother grew up there. So naturally, he thought they would go back with Zhao Tingxing. He also wanted to go back and see the grandmother and "wolf grandmother" that Zhao Tingxing mentioned.
"This time, only the two of us will go. I'll take you back to see your grandparents." This was Han Li's first time wanting to take Han Zhao Yi back. She now understood, even though her parents were disappointed in her all those years ago, it was because they worried about her future. Now that she was doing well, they would definitely be happy for her; even if they were still upset that she had raised Han Zhao Yi alone, seeing how lively and adorable he was, they would surely like him.
Yes, Han Li only now has the courage to take Han Zhao Yi back to see them. Only now does she have the confidence to tell them that she is doing very well, a hundred or a thousand times better than they expected.
He flew to southwest China with Han Zhaoyi and then drove back to County A. After coming out of that tunnel, he could see at a glance the two white spots in the distance, which were two cemeteries on the mountain range. They remained unaffected even after the earthquake last time.
Han Zhaoyi asked curiously, "Mom, you said Grandpa and Grandma live in that mountain"
"Yes, just a moment, we'll climb up the mountain to see them."
"Good," Han Zhao Yi seemed to be someone who belonged here. Seeing the endless mountains, he was very interested.
Every time Han Li came to County A, he would just glance at it from afar at the tunnel entrance and never went up the mountain to see it. This time, bringing Han Zhao Yi with him, they bought a lot of things at a funeral shop in the county town before going up the mountain.
I originally thought the graveyard would be overgrown with weeds, but when I got there, I found it was very clean and tidy, even with fruits and flowers placed before the tombstones. Obviously, someone had taken care of it recently.
Who could it be
For some reason, she was certain it was Zhao Tingxing who did it. Because their families were distant relatives and wouldn't likely come up the mountain to sweep graves.
Han Li knelt beside, letting Han Zhao Yi arrange the bought fruits and flowers. She stood by, burning incense from a nearby shop, gazing at the names engraved on their tombstones. A heavy feeling weighed down her heart, bringing tears to her eyes several times, which she managed to hold back.
"Mommy, do Grandpa and Grandma like apples I don't like apples," Han Zhaoyi asked.
Han Li was taken aback. Unlike Han Zhao, she hadn't thought this through. She didn't know whether her parents liked apples or not. Growing up, their living conditions were limited, and there were hardly any fruits at home. They only bought a few apples for offerings to deities during festivals.
She could only reply, "Anything you buy will be loved by Grandma and Grandpa."
After Han Li had finished burning the offerings, she carefully extinguished all the embers with mineral water before having Han Zhao Yi kneel down. She then introduced him to her parents in detail and had him kowtow three times to them.
She believes her parents can now see and be comforted by how she's living. Finally, the thorn that had been lodged in her heart has been removed. She has reconciled with her parents, and with herself.
Coming down the mountain and back to a county hotel, as soon as she entered the lobby, Han Zhaoyi let go of her hand and ran towards a familiar figure, "Zhao Tingxing, I knew you would definitely come."
Zhaoting pulled him up and hugged him, then walked towards Hanli, asking naturally, "Have you been there"
"Mmm." she replied, then added, "Thank you."
There was still an understanding between them, no need to explain, Zhao Tingxing knew why she said thank you. She could tell that the cemetery wasn't recently maintained by hired help, but had been consistently looked after.
Zhao Tingxing wasn't polite: "I've made them angry many times before, now it's good to be able to do a little better and put their minds at ease."
Han Li blurted out, "You always think of making up for it after the fact."
unconsciously with a hint of complaint.
Zhao Tingxing admitted: "I was wrong, and I will definitely think ahead in the future."
He had already thought ahead and booked two hotel rooms for them, right next to each other. Han Li took a look at the room numbers, 2203. Was that intentional
She went to the front desk with her room card to change rooms. The receptionist glanced at it and said, "Sorry, the number is blurry. Mr. Zhao booked you room 203, not 2203."
Zhao Tingxing deliberately said sarcastically from the side: "What are you thinking about There are no hotels in County A that are over 20 floors high."
Han Li's face flushed. Yes, she knew the moment she walked in, this hotel only had six floors.
Zhao Tingxing: “If you want to live in 2203, come back to the city tomorrow, and I'll arrange it for you.”
Han Zhaoyi asked, "Why live in 2203"
Zhaoting smiled very happily: "It's probably that you came to this world in 2203."
Zhao Ting came to County A. He didn't need to stay in a hotel, as there were houses all over the place that belonged to him, as well as his grandmother's villa.nt to issue an official message first.He has been operating in the southwest for many years, and with Zhang Ze's relationship, he can come to this office building as if it were his own, entering and l...
