Forced into a romantic relationship.

Han Zhou checked the time and replied, "The time is set for the afternoon. Take me to Yunhuan Residential Area first."

Yunhuan Residential Area?

Lin Anyu's heart tightened, and he stared at him with wide eyes, as if he had seen a ghost.

Gu Zheng seemed to remember something and asked curiously, "I remember the girl you tutored lived in this neighborhood, right?"

"Yes, my tutoring job ended yesterday. She just messaged me to come over and pick up some things."

Han Zhou looked down at the message, completely unaware that Lin Anyu was frantically giving him meaningful glances.

"Oh, then let's go find Ya Ya."

Gu Zheng didn't pay much attention, but Lin Anyu's mood grew heavier. He thought to himself, "Han Zhou is too arrogant. He actually dared to bring Gu Zheng to that girl named Mo Yixia. Does he have a death wish?"

Or is it that their relationship isn't actually what I imagined?

"Han Zhou..."

"Ok?"

Lin Anyu took a deep breath: "It's nothing, you guys buckle up."

With a mix of trepidation and excitement, he finally started the car.

A white car travels on the highway.

After driving for a while, Gu Zheng suddenly asked, "By the way, Lin Anyu, I heard that Chen Hao suddenly said he didn't want to attend the class reunion. You're quite familiar with everyone in the class, do you know why?"

She wasn't familiar with Chen Hao, so she didn't care whether he came or not. She only decided to ask about the situation after seeing in the group chat that something seemed to have happened at home.

"Chen Hao?"

Lin Anyu hesitated, looking like he wanted to say something but didn't know how.

Han Zhou asked in confusion, "If you're going to talk, just say it. What's with that expression on your face?"

"You don't know anything. This is someone else's privacy."

Lin Anyu hesitated for a moment, but in the end he couldn't help himself. After all, the matter had already spread, and even if he didn't say it, Han Zhou and Gu Zheng would eventually hear about it from other people, so there shouldn't be any problem if he said it now.

"I do know the reason, but this matter is a bit bizarre, so you should be prepared."

Seeing his mysterious demeanor, Han Zhou couldn't help but become interested: "Tell me about it."

Guzheng was also curious and immediately pricked up her ears to listen.

"Chen Hao's parents are getting a divorce."

Lin Anyu sighed and immediately dropped a bombshell, "He doesn't even dare to go home now, so of course he can't attend the class reunion."

Although he was sighing, he couldn't hide the smile on his lips, as if he was trying to suppress a laugh.

Han Zhou asked suspiciously, "Why are you so happy that other people's parents are getting divorced?"

Hmm... Could this guy be eyeing someone else's mother?

"I'm not happy, I just can't help it. Believe me, after you hear me out, you'll probably laugh even more than I do."

"Okay, then continue."

Lin Anyu took a deep breath, suppressing a laugh, and said, "This is what happened. About a few days ago, that kid Chen Hao did something stupid. He went into his parents' room when they weren't home and used... used..."

At this point, he suddenly hesitated, glancing back at Gu Zheng. If it were just Han Zhou here, it wouldn't matter, as his driving skills were indeed quite good. But with girls present, he still needed to be a little more careful about what he said.

"What's wrong? What should I use?"

Gu Zheng looked bewildered. "Go on, why are you looking at me?"

"Ahem, well then I'll tell you."

Lin Anyu coughed twice and continued, "That kid was full of energy that day."

Gu Zheng paused for a moment, then blushed slightly. Although Lin Anyu's words weren't entirely direct, she still understood what he meant.

Perhaps out of habit, she punched Han Zhou without saying a word.

Lin Anyu grinned and said, "If it were just that, it wouldn't be so bad, but that kid just seemed to have lost his mind."

"You can probably guess what happened next. One day, Chen Hao's father came home and found the condom. He was so angry that he almost exploded. He found his wife and gave her a good scolding, determined to get an explanation."

"Chen Hao's mother was also confused. She repeatedly said that she did not know anything about this. Then she was also furious. She felt that her husband was trying to slander her innocence. She even suspected that he was crying wolf. After all... the two of them had a big fight that day and almost tore the house apart."

Gu Zheng was stunned; this was indeed quite bizarre.

Lin Anyu laughed until tears streamed down his face, and continued, "They did suspect that the condom might be related to their son, so they made several phone calls to verify. But Chen Hao was engrossed in playing games at the internet cafe and didn't answer the phone. He only realized the situation was serious after leaving the internet cafe. Instead of trying to make amends, he refused to admit that he had used the condom. He just watched helplessly as his parents suspected and argued, which eventually led to their divorce."

At this point, he stopped smiling and curled his lip in disdain, "He dares to do it but doesn't dare to admit it. What an idiot. He has no sense of responsibility at all."

"And then?" Guzheng asked.

"Later, Chen Hao's mother couldn't bear it any longer and decided to take a condom to get a DNA test to prove her innocence. His father was also furious and still firmly believed that there must be a lover. When the test results came out and they found out that the DNA in the condom belonged to Chen Hao, they were both dumbfounded."

"I heard that the DNA test cost several thousand yuan and the result was so embarrassing. Although the truth has come out, the relationship between Chen Hao's parents has completely broken down. I heard that they did not give up the idea of ​​divorce and are still going through the divorce process."

Lin Anyu shook his head. His first reaction when he heard about this was to laugh. After all, the incident was too dramatic. Even now, he still couldn't help but laugh when he thought about it again. But when he thought about it carefully, the incident was not that serious. If Chen Hao had admitted what he did in time, his parents wouldn't have ended up getting a divorce.

Gu Zheng shared a similar view, expressing her surprise that Chen Hao was so irresponsible, actually tearing his parents apart.

Han Zhou's evaluation was much more concise, consisting of only two words—

"unbelievable."

And so, the three of them continued chatting about their high school days, and soon arrived at Yunhuan Residential Area.

Lin Anyu got along well with everyone in high school and knew a lot of interesting stories. He kept talking the whole way, and even told some embarrassing stories about Han Zhou, which made Gu Zheng laugh out loud.

Han Zhou retaliated with a cold laugh, revealing Lin Anyu's embarrassing secrets.

The group was chatting and laughing, but when the car stopped, Lin Anyu suddenly froze.

He saw a figure wearing a mask and a baseball cap standing at the entrance of the residential area. It was the girl named Mo Yixia. This was expected, and he was not surprised.

What truly sent chills down his spine was that he spotted another familiar figure at the subway entrance not far away—Zhong Ling, whom he had met once before.

At this moment, Zhong Ling was walking with a woman who seemed to have a lot of sense. Judging from their appearance, the two should be sisters. It was as if by some strange coincidence that they were walking in this direction.

Repairing... a chaotic battlefield?!

isn't it...

Lin Anyu broke out in a cold sweat. He glanced at Guzheng, who was looking around the car, and then at Han Zhou, who was oblivious to everything. He began to silently mourn for the guy.

What day is it today?

Chapter 112 How did I get myself involved?

Han Zhou was completely unaware of Lin Anyu's unusual behavior.

His attention was focused on Mo Yixia at the entrance of the residential area, so he didn't see Zhong Ling on the other side. He unbuckled his seatbelt and said, "Wait for me in the car for a while, I'll be right back."

Lin Anyu hesitated, his anxiety like that of an ant on a hot pan. Just as Han Zhou was about to push open the car door and get out, he quickly called out to stop him.

"and many more!"

"what happened?"

Han Zhou paused in his actions and turned to look at him with a puzzled expression.

"Could you also buy me a bottle of water?"

"Okay, what kind of water?"

"let me see……"

Lin Anyu's expression was solemn, and he started rambling, "As you probably know, I'm a rather picky person, so the selection of water isn't very extensive. The reason for the limited selection is that I'm quite particular about my taste, so I need water that's neither sour nor sweet, has a vibrant color, a rich flavor, is good value for money, and is colorless and tasteless..."

"If you keep talking, it'll never end," Han Zhou interrupted him, frowning. "What nonsense are you spouting?"

This guy is acting really strange today. Could it be that he really drank fake alcohol?

"It's nothing, just kidding. You go ahead and do your thing. Actually, I'm not that picky. You just need to remember one thing: I don't drink anything under five yuan. You haven't forgotten that, have you?"

"Amounts exceeding five yuan will be reimbursed."

Han Zhou ignored the guy, opened the car door and got out.

Lin Anyu glanced out the car window beside him and saw the Zhong sisters walk into a bookstore before he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

If he hadn't delayed them for a while, the two people walking this way might have seen Han Zhou getting out of the car, which would have made things complicated.

I wonder how long Han Zhou will chat with his student. I just hope it goes quickly and that he can get back to his car before Zhong Ling leaves the bookstore.

"Forget it, I'll just send him a message to remind him. How come he has absolutely no sense of crisis..."

Lin Anyu sighed; he had been worrying himself sick over Han Zhou lately.

From a devoted admirer to showing signs of becoming a player, it's hard to say whether such an extreme change is a good thing or a bad thing...

Lin Anyu looked worried and was about to send a message to Han Zhou when Gu Zheng, who had been observing him for a while, suddenly said, "You don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?"

"No no."

Lin Anyu's heart tightened, and he quickly chuckled twice, "I was just a little thirsty from talking while driving."

He felt somewhat guilty towards the guzheng, so he spoke rather hesitantly.

"Really?" Gu Zheng looked at him suspiciously for a moment, then said, "Then I'll get off the bus now and buy you some water. I'm thirsty too."

As she spoke, she unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to push open the car door.

"no need!"

Lin Anyu's expression changed drastically, and he quickly shouted to stop her. Seeing the growing suspicion on Gu Zheng's face, he forced a smile and said nervously, "Didn't I already ask Han Zhou to buy me water? He'll be back in a little while, and he'll definitely bring some for you too, so there's no need to trouble yourself."

Gu Zheng looked at him with a scrutinizing expression: "Wouldn't it be the same if I got off the bus to buy it? Besides, it seems that Han Zhou is going to bring something over from that girl later, so even if he wants to buy water for us, it might not be convenient for him to carry it."

Lin Anyu feigned composure: "That's true, but there's really no need to go to the trouble. Han Zhou knows my tastes better."

"Why don't you just tell me your taste?" Guzheng persisted.

Faced with the girl's suspicious gaze, Lin Anyu really couldn't keep up the lie, but for his good friend's sake, he still gritted his teeth and insisted: "Taste is subjective, I still want Han Zhou to buy it for me."

Gu Zheng grew impatient and frowned, saying, "Is there any difference between what Han Zhou bought and what I bought?"

She didn't immediately connect the dots; she just thought Lin Anyu was acting strangely, making such a fuss over even buying a bottle of water. She didn't think he was intentionally preventing her from getting off the bus.
