Forced into a relationship

"Have you been overindulging yourself?"

Han Zhou was struck by lightning, and finally understood where this trace of disgust came from. He couldn't stand it anymore, and asked, "You have been maliciously slandering me today, why?"

He thought back and realized that this guy was fine until he left today. In fact, because he needed help from him, his attitude was even better at that time. He suddenly changed his attitude after he left...

Thinking about it more carefully, this guy suddenly called him a scumbag and mocked him for being fickle. The timing seemed to be after he had delivered water to the other person's friend...

Is it possible...

Han Zhou's expression changed slightly, and just as he was about to ask a question, he heard Mo Yixia remind him, "Remember to lower your head before you start saying stupid things. There are surveillance cameras in the elevator, and my mother might watch it."

Han Zhou followed suit, lowered his head honestly, and asked suspiciously, "You don't want me to get involved with your friend, do you?"

"You can be bolder. Even if you shamelessly use the word 'jealous', it's okay. I won't say you are being self-indulgent."

Han Zhou sighed: "I never thought you would be jealous. You are just being too self-indulgent in this regard."

Mo Yixia pretended not to hear and said calmly: "But you are right, I really don't want you to get involved with them, because as the relationship deepens, you will inevitably mention me in your future conversations, which is something I don't want to see."

"And I still can't think of a reason why you approached me, and now you plan to approach them for no reason. This has something to do with me. I should be worried about their situation."

"What's there to worry about?" Han Zhou said helplessly, "Don't think of me as a gangster. Besides, I won't have too many interactions with them. At most, we can chat when needed."

"Use it and then throw it away..."

Mo Yixia said "tsk", and asked, "For what?"

"Private matter."

Of course Han Zhou would not tell Mo Yixia that it was for another girl, otherwise he could imagine how this guy would answer -

"You started with one girl, followed her network to get to know other girls, used them and discarded them, but your ultimate goal was to get your hands on another girl. Do you still dare to say you're not a scumbag?"

The elevator slowly rose, the numbers on the display screen kept jumping, and it was about to reach the 32nd floor.

Seeing that Han Zhou didn't want to explain further, Mo Yixia didn't ask any more questions, but just said calmly: "Put the box at the door later and you can leave."

"Don't you want me to help you move in?"

"My mom is back. Believe me, you don't want to see her like this."

Will you have nightmares?

Han Zhou complained in his heart, but he didn't expect the matter to be so serious. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Doesn't it look like I'm a fugitive?"

Mo Yixia glanced at him sideways: "It's better than being killed on the spot."

What kind of hell is your home...

Han Zhou was horrified and immediately gave up the idea of ​​explaining to Jiang Baiqian face to face, for fear that he would see three hundred ambushed swordsmen and axemen as soon as he entered the room. Mo Yixia should not deceive him on this point.

It seems that all the previous preparations are meaningless. Now Jiang Baiqian can only see one thing - her daughter, who was supposed to stay at home, ran away, and ran for more than an hour.

This seemed to be a very serious matter to her.

"You protect..."

The elevator door opened, and Han Zhou struggled to move the box to Mo Yixia's door. He opened his mouth to ask her to take care of herself, but she seemed to misunderstand his meaning and interrupted him nonchalantly.

"You can go now. Don't worry. From today on, I will do whatever it takes to protect you. I will never let you be replaced."

Han Zhou opened his mouth slightly, feeling somewhat touched, but heard the other party continue to whisper, "With you taking the blame this time, it should be easier to go out next time."

The emotion on Han Zhou's face disappeared in an instant, and turned into dullness.

What's the blame?

Aren't you going to protect me at all costs?

It was a pity that Mo Yixia obviously wouldn't answer her. She handed him her access card and opened the door and went in.

Han Zhou had no choice but to take the elevator downstairs.

……

When Mo Yixia entered the room, Jiang Baiqian was sitting on the sofa watching TV. The sound of the door opening was quite loud, but she seemed to have not noticed her daughter coming back at all. She kept changing channels with the remote control with an expressionless face, and the frequency was getting faster and faster.

The sound from the TV kept changing intermittently, which was annoying to listen to.

Mo Yixia pretended not to see her mother. She went back to her room without saying a word, found some clothes to change into, and walked into the bathroom silently.

During the entire process, the two people's eyes did not meet even once. The atmosphere in the room was extremely depressing, like two masters ready to strike. It was a matter of seconds to see who would be unable to hold back and make a move first.

Soon, the sound of water could be heard in the bathroom.

When Mo Yixia walked out of the bathroom, she just saw Jiang Baiqian walking out of her room with an extremely gloomy expression.

"Where's your phone? Why did you bring it into the bathroom?"

The fact that she asked such a question clearly showed that she had searched the room.

I have to say that Mo Yixia is quite charming just after taking a shower. Only at this time will she temporarily put aside her mask and baseball cap, fully revealing her black hair and stunning face.

Her hair was wet, her skin was white with a rosy glow, and there were some water droplets on her fair neck, making her look even more moisturized. Her facial features were delicate like works of art, her nose was delicate and her lips were red, flawless. Even without makeup, she was still beautiful enough to attract people's attention.

A teardrop mole adorns the corner of the right eye. The beautiful eyes should be full of bright light, but they have become dull since some time ago. At this moment, they are as deep as dead and deserted stars.

"Don't be so nervous, I just forgot to take it out."

She walked into the bathroom, picked up her phone, unlocked it and handed it to the woman in front of her. Her tone was so calm that it seemed as if the person in front of her was not her mother, but a stranger.

"If you're really that worried, you can install surveillance cameras in the bathroom as well."

Jiang Baiqian's expression became colder and colder. She took the phone and kept checking it.

The two were silent.

A war is about to break out.

Chapter 30 It's your turn to do whatever it takes

Han Zhou didn't know how Mo Yixia negotiated with Jiang Baiqian.

However, when he came to her house the next day with a nervous mood, Jiang Baiqian did not show any abnormality at all and was still as enthusiastic as before.

And he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that there seemed to be some encouragement and expectation hidden in the other person's eyes.

Han Zhou then breathed a sigh of relief.

From a certain perspective, Mo Yixia actually deceived him yesterday, because the other party did not mention the serious consequences of going out rashly at that time, but only mentioned it afterwards.

But it was obviously too late to regret at that time. Things had already happened, and Han Zhou had no way to regret. He could only face it head on.

However, afterwards, Mo Yixia chose to face her mother's anger alone and did not let him be affected at all, which shows that although the other party had some ulterior motives, she did not intend to harm him.

Han Zhou actually felt quite sympathetic towards Mo Yixia. Her father passed away a year ago, and her mother was so strong and dictatorial that she almost deprived her of all her freedom. She was helpless on weekdays and could only try her best to fight with her mother. It was no wonder that she developed a world-weary mentality.

However, so far, he has not intuitively felt Mo Yixia's dissatisfaction with this world. It seems that there are many thoughts hidden under the other party's hat and mask, which have never been truly revealed.

The whole morning was completely calm. Jiang Baiqian didn't even mention what happened yesterday once. She prepared the meal as usual, greeted the two of them with a smile, and left with her bag when she saw that it was almost time.

Everything was as usual. Han Zhou felt relieved but also a little surprised. He didn't know how Mo Yixia talked to Jiang Baiqian. After all, it was a bit too exaggerated that she didn't even ask a question.

Or is the matter not as serious as she said?

Mo Yixia did not hide anything and told Han Zhou roughly the content of her conversation with Jiang Baiqian yesterday during the meal.

Han Zhou was stunned after hearing this. He could barely hold his chopsticks steady. After a while, he lowered his head and said indignantly, "Did you tell her that?"

"Yes, that's what I said."

Mo Yixia pushed a plate of fish in front of him as usual.

Han Zhou couldn't eat fish right now. He even worried that the food was poisonous. He took a deep breath, stared at the other person and said, "I remember you said you would protect me."

Mo Yixia now had an extra appetite and kept eating in small bites: "If it weren't for me protecting you, you wouldn't be sitting here now."

"But you are clearly fabricating facts and making me bear the blame that does not belong to me!"

Mo Yixia said without blushing or raising her head, "Except for the fact that the person who proposed to go out changed from me to you, the other things are not too different from the facts, so it can't be considered fabrication."

Han Zhou realized for the first time that this guy was quite shameless. He gritted his teeth and said, "This is the biggest discrepancy! I became the initiator and executor of the trip. How is this different from kidnapping?"

He suddenly remembered that when Jiang Baiqian brought the fruit over in the morning, she seemed to be holding a kitchen knife in her hand. He didn't think it was a big deal at the time, but now he feels scared when he thinks about it.

"It's not that serious. I insisted that your access card was broken. I also told my mom that you took me out just on a whim when we got to the gate of the community. You planned to take me around while borrowing my notebooks, saying that studying should be a combination of work and rest."

Han Zhou was stunned for a moment, then said angrily: "Why did you insist on adding that I want to take you around? When you lie, you have to combine the truth with the lies, and avoid the important points. Wouldn't it be better if you just said it was for study?"

Is this guy's focus off the track?

Mo Yixia gave him a strange look: "It's okay to just talk about studying, but do you think my mother will believe it?"

"That's true..."

Han Zhou thought about it, and then seemed to suddenly realize something, and said strangely, "I have taken all the blame in this story, so what role do you play in it?"

"A pure high school girl who is devoted to her studies and who resists with all her might but whose willpower is a little weak, and who is eventually seduced by your sweet talk..."

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. There's no way your mother would believe this."

Han Zhou interrupted Mo Yixia unhappily. He wasn't really that angry, and he knew the real situation wasn't as simple as the other party said. But this guy really deserved a beating today...

Mo Yixia raised her head slightly and said, “Of course she won’t believe it, but no matter what, the fact is that you don’t have to leave, and you don’t have to thank me.”

Can you think about who I left because of...

Han Zhou's mouth twitched, and he suddenly noticed that the other person's expression seemed to be softer than before, so he asked curiously: "You seem to be very happy?"

Mo Yixia didn't deny it: "Because I got three benefits from this negotiation."

"What's the benefit?"

Han Zhou was stunned. He didn't expect that this guy could gain something from a quarrel.

"First, I took advantage of last night's argument to lose my temper and successfully expressed my long-standing dissatisfaction."

"Second, I reached a new agreement with my mother, increasing the rest time in the morning and afternoon to thirty minutes."

"third……"

Mo Yixia glanced at Han Zhou meaningfully, "After what happened this time, it will be easier for me to go out next time."

Han Zhou's face darkened: "There won't be a next time! Even if there is, I won't take the blame for you! No, you took all the benefits, and I got nothing. You must compensate me."
