Forced into a relationship

The latter was furious and wanted to fight back but was easily suppressed by Lin Pingcheng.

Lin Youya, with a birthday hat on her round head, looked around and soon found Han Zhou and Gu Zheng in the crowd. She ran over excitedly.

Seeing this guy approaching, Han Zhou's face darkened and he subconsciously wanted to slip away. However, when he noticed the other's pure eyes, he felt that everything that had just happened was just an unintentional act of the child and there was no need to hide from him.

Lin Youya did not come empty-handed, but brought two pieces of birthday cake. She looked attentive and said in a crisp voice: "Brother Han Zhou, Sister Guzheng, eat cake!"

Han Zhou took the cake and said, "Thank you."

Gu Zheng looked at the child with a strange look in her eyes. She didn't know if she had a psychological trauma, but she also took the cake and thanked him: "It's delicious."

Lin Youya was very happy and said, "Yeah, yeah, it's delicious, I'll get some more!"

As he said this, he ran away with his short legs.

Gu Zheng looked at her back and chuckled, "This kid really likes you. He seems to regard you as an idol."

Han Zhou said helplessly: "I don't want to be regarded as an idol."

What he said was the truth.

Not long ago, Lin Youya started to show him all kinds of attentions, and flattered him like they were free, saying that Brother Han Zhou was so great, so tall and handsome, and more than one meter taller than me.

Gu Zheng was stunned at the time and explained that Brother Han Zhou was not that tall. If he was one meter taller than her, he would be a little giant.

Unexpectedly, Lin Youya shook her head firmly and copied Lin Anyu's rounding method, saying that Brother Han Zhou was just that tall.

Gu Zheng couldn't help laughing out loud and said that if that was true, then one meter and two meters could be rounded off further, then everyone would be zero meters and everyone would be the same height.

Lin Youya then realized that she had been cheated. She flew into a rage and pointed at Lin Anyu's nose and called him a dwarf, saying that he was such a grown man but was as tall as a child like her.

So "Shorty" became the new nickname after "Big Head Lin".

Lin Anyu was not angry. Instead, he smiled and seduced, "I am a dwarf, so your brother Han Zhou is also a dwarf."

Lin Youya became even angrier and yelled, "Stop talking nonsense. Brother Han Zhou is clearly two meters taller than me!"

Degrading oneself and elevating others, such double-standard operation made everyone dumbfounded, and Lin Anyu was even more jealous.

However, Lin Youya's behavior was obviously not entirely out of admiration. While pestering Han Zhou, she had been quietly hinting at him to teach her how to become so strong.

Of course, the so-called calmness was just what this guy thought, and his real purpose was already written on his face. However, Han Zhou also gave him face and kept pretending to be stupid and pretending not to understand.

He had just recently learned from Gu Zheng the way to avoid making girls angry, which was not to easily reveal a girl's true thoughts. He believed that the little girl would understand his painstaking efforts in the future.

Lin Youya quickly ran back and placed the cake on the table beside them. She took another piece in her hand and looked around and said, "Has Sister Yixia left? I want to give her a piece as well."

In order to prevent this guy from using the leading actress' sister to provoke Gu Zheng again, Han Zhou told her Mo Yixia's name not long ago.

Han Zhou nodded and said, "Yes, she left."

He actually wanted to find Mo Yixia just now. That guy would not take off his mask when he went out, and he didn't talk much when he was with his mother, so he could basically just act like a wooden man and couldn't eat anything.

So he asked Lin Anyu for an empty room, intending to invite the guy to the room to eat something, but after asking, he found out that the other party had already left.

"Oh."

Lin Youya was a little disappointed. She actually wanted to see what the leading actress' face looked like under the mask, but unfortunately her expectation was dashed.

Han Zhou checked his phone and realized it was getting late. After thinking for a moment, he said to Gu Zheng, "I'll take you home later."

Gu Zheng was stunned, and stopped chewing for a few seconds, then laughed: "With your thin arms and legs, it's not a big deal for me to take you home..."

She quickly remembered Han Zhou's performance in the previous video, and changed her words without changing her expression.

"It's not impossible. My home is quite remote. It's dark and there are few people around. There are no street lights on the road."

Chapter 25 I really deserve to die

Thinking that Han Zhou would take her home, Gu Zheng's smile brightened. She had been looking forward to it, but after waiting for a long time, her expectations were dashed.

The banquet was about to end when Lin Anyu suddenly appeared from nowhere and said that it might be unsafe after dark and that the driver had to take the two of them home.

He looked nervous and kept looking back, as if he was avoiding something. He hurriedly urged the two to get in the car, then he quickly got in and slammed the door shut.

Looking at the small figure approaching quickly outside the car window, he said anxiously: "Uncle Zhang, hurry up, drive!"

The car started and Lin Youya's gnashing shouts came from behind the car.

"Don't run, little dwarf! Don't go home if you can!"

Lin Anyu kept slapping his thigh and laughing loudly as if he had achieved revenge.

Lin Youya's face was covered with cream and she was so angry that she was jumping up and down. Han Zhou, who was sitting in the back seat, naturally saw it. He thought that maybe this was the main reason why Lin Anyu suddenly offered to send them home, just to avoid the limelight.

The car first drove to Huadu Community.

Guzheng didn't say a word the whole time, only saying "thank you" before getting off the car, and then quickly walked into the community.

He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Lin Anyu always felt that the other person looked at him with some displeasure when he got off the car.

He replied with a smile, "It's my duty", but the latter seemed to become even angrier, clenched his fists and ran away angrily.

Lin Anyu was dumbfounded. He and Gu Zheng had an average relationship and didn't know each other very well. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out why she was unhappy. He could only treat it as his own illusion and sent Han Zhou back home.

Han Zhou rejected Lin Anyu's request to stay overnight with a clean and neat "Get lost" and went upstairs alone.

He has always had the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. Although the status bar makes his body look no different from that of a normal person, he has not forgotten that he is a patient. He usually does not smoke or drink, goes to bed early and gets up early, and tries his best to maintain good work and rest and eating habits.

"I used two extra points today. Thinking about it now, I still feel a little sad. I have to finish all four daily tasks tomorrow. The other tasks are easy, but the task of making Mo Yixia laugh is really troublesome. I have to work hard every time. I have to think of a way to quickly earn points..."

"By the way, we need to find an opportunity to verify whether Gu Zheng's analysis is true..."

Han Zhou walked into the bathroom thinking, and was about to go to bed after taking a shower, but suddenly he heard a hurried knock on the door.

He frowned slightly. It was almost eleven o'clock now. Who would come to his door so late at night? And the sound was more like banging on the door than knocking, which reminded him of some bad memories.

There was no peephole on his door, so he had no way of seeing what was happening outside. And it was impossible to pretend that no one was at home, after all, the lights were still on. So he put on his clothes and walked to the door. He listened for a moment before opening the door, but he did not lower the security chain.

Just as Han Zhou had thought, as soon as the door was opened, someone pushed against it and tried to get in. Their movements were as rude as a group of bandits. They cursed at each other and slammed the door.

If it weren't for the anti-hotlink blocking, I'm afraid these people would have rushed in at the first moment.

"Damn it, Mr. Han, do you think you can hide? Open the door quickly!"

Han Zhou took a few steps back and looked coldly at the ferocious guys outside the door. He was basically sure what they were doing and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Seeing that the person who opened the door was a young man, the burly man in the lead signaled the others to shut up and said in a deep voice: "Where is Han Long? Let him come out."

"I don't know Han Long."

"Fuck you, mother-in-law!"

A sturdy little man sneered, "You are kidding me, this is Han Long's home, how can you live here if you don't know him? Open the door for me!"

Han Zhou ignored him, lowered his head and input the phone number, saying: "If you don't leave, I will call the police."

The sturdy man should be the leader. Hearing this, he showed no fear. He stuffed a cigarette into his mouth and said coldly, "You can call the police, or we can leave now. The police are very busy, but we are not. We will come every day in the future."

The others all sneered.

Han Zhou knew that they were a group of scoundrels, so he didn't call the police for the time being, but still held the phone to threaten them and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"What the hell do you think? You're asking even though you already know the answer, right?"

"Call Han Long out, that guy owes us a lot of money, don't try to play dead!"

"You bastard, you kept us awake all night."

The sturdy man had a face full of flesh, but he didn't swear like the others: "It's only natural to pay back debts. If Han Long hadn't refused to pay back the money, you wouldn't have seen us today, so you'd better not hide it for him."

Han Zhou sighed in his heart, thinking that this was indeed the case, these people came to collect debts.

He shook his head and said, "He's not here."

The little guy spat and shouted, "Still talking nonsense, you said he's not here, so he's not here? Let's go in and take a look!"

The sturdy man turned around and glared at him, and the latter instantly wilted. Then he looked Han Zhou up and down for a moment and asked, "What is your relationship with Han Long, father and son?"

"That's it."

"Is it?" The little man raised his head and sneered, "Didn't you just say you didn't know him? Could it be that Han Long taught you this rhetoric?"

Han Zhou said calmly: "He left here more than a year ago and has never come back. If you want to find him, you'd better go somewhere else."

The sturdy man carefully looked through the crack in the door and felt that there was indeed no one. He said in a deep voice: "Every wrong has its perpetrator. I don't want to embarrass a young man like you, so don't make it difficult for me. Call your father and tell him to stop hiding."

Han Zhou was a little surprised. He had seen many debt collectors since he was a child. Most of them were hooligans. Many of them tried to force Han Long to submit by intimidating him. He didn't expect that the debt collector this time was a principled one.

He thought about it, found Han Long from his mobile phone contacts in front of several people, and dialed the number. A prompt tone soon rang in the phone, saying that this was an invalid number.

"He changed his number a long time ago, and I can't get in touch with him. Even if I could get in touch with him, he wouldn't answer my calls."

"You're trying to fool us?" The little guy was in a bad mood and cursed, "You said this is Han Long's phone number? You just made up an empty number and you want to fool us?"

Han Zhou looked at him deeply, put the phone in front of the strong man, and showed him all the call records of this number. He flipped through the records and said, "He cancelled this number when he left a year ago. I live alone now."

The sturdy man didn't say anything and seemed not to believe it. The others kept swearing. The neighbors probably heard the noise outside and the sound of light footsteps in the house, but they didn't dare to go out to check.

So Han Zhou simply went back to the room, took out the diagnosis, and handed it directly to the people outside.

"This is the diagnosis record from a year ago. The doctor said at the time that I would not live more than two years. Not long after that, Han Long ran away. I don't know where he is, and it's no use looking for me."

"Keep making it up. You won't live more than two years? Why don't you say you won't live more than tomorrow? You think..."

The smaller man scoffed and opened his mouth to retort, but the rest of his words were stuck in his mouth.

He didn't know why, but he suddenly thought of his son who was left behind in the countryside, and his heart suddenly tightened.

If what this guy said was true, then doesn't that mean he only has less than a year to live? And he's an abandoned child without a father or a mother?

He knew that Han Long had a wife, but heard that she died very early, so Han Long's son was motherless.

Han Zhou knew how troublesome it was to be associated with these ruffians, just like a dog-skin plaster that could not be shaken off, so he decided to completely sever his relationship with Han Long.

But in fact, from the day he abandoned him, Han Long was no longer his father.

Of course he understood the other party's choice, but the other party should have thought of the consequences in advance.

Han Zhou had been very calm from beginning to end. When he saw that everyone was suddenly silent, he said, "If you don't believe me, you can go ask the neighbors. I have been living alone now and have nothing to do with Han Long anymore, so please don't harass me in the future. I don't have any money, and I won't pay it back for him even if I do."

The people outside the door remained silent.

They have seen many guys who temporarily abandoned their wives and children in order to avoid debt, but that was mostly out of necessity, not because they didn't care about their families. This was the first time they had seen such a situation.
