Chapter 2478: Let’s Be Together!

She did not know if it was because of the heat or because she was injured.

Warmth rushed into An Rui’s eyes.

It had been many years since she had felt like this.

When she said the word ‘end’, her heart felt empty!

An Rui did not want to stay here any longer and got up from the chair.

She had just reached the entrance of the restaurant when someone hugged her from behind.

An Rui struggled instinctively.

“Let go!”

Instead of letting go, Zhou Li pressed her against the wall.

“Ruirui, look at me.”

An Rui did not look at him. She put her hands on his shoulders and pushed him hard.

With her understanding of Zhou Li, he would not hurt her heart easily. However, this concerned his job and future. If she went to look for Tiantian, things might turn around.

But she could not go to Tiantian every time she was in trouble.

There was still the next hurdle to overcome.

An Rui did not want to rely on others for everything!

Closing her red eyes, An Rui looked up at Zhou Li.

“Say it all at once!”

Zhou Li pursed his lips tightly. “Ruirui, I never thought of breaking up.”

An Rui found it funny. “If you don’t want to break up, then what did you promise Shen Mingxiu’s mother to consider?”

Zhou Li grabbed An Rui’s slender shoulders. “It’s not about breaking up. If someone uses this to threaten and force me, I won’t give in.”

An Rui looked at Zhou Li’s sincere and clean eyes and her heart softened.

He did not seem like he was lying to her!

However, he was unwilling to say what he wanted to consider.

“Ruirui, I have no feelings for you.”

Tears filled An Rui’s eyes and she looked away. “Who knows if you’re telling the truth?”

“The truth.”

He held An Rui’s hand and led her back to the dining table.

“You didn’t eat much. Sit down and eat more.”

An Rui refused to sit down.

Zhou Li had no choice but to sit down and pull An Rui onto his lap.

An Rui wanted to stand up instinctively, but Zhou Li held her waist tightly.

“I’ll feed you.”

He put the cooked mutton into her bowl.

An Rui looked at his gentle and doting gaze and the grievance and resentment in her heart dissipated.

Although he did not know how to sweet talk people, she liked it.

One action and gaze could calm her heart.

Seeing that An Rui had eaten the mutton, he took a few more pieces.

After she was seventy to eighty percent full, she stopped eating.

Zhou Li took a tissue and wiped her lips.

An Rui looked down at him and met with his gentle eyes. She seemed to be drawn by something and lowered her head, kissing his lips.

Her hands moved to unbutton his shirt.

Zhou Li held An Rui’s hand and said hoarsely, “Ruirui.”

An Rui leaned on his shoulder and bit his chin. “Zhou Li, let’s be together?”

Zhou Li was stunned for a moment. When he realized what she meant, he looked at her in disbelief. “Ruirui, you…”

“I did it willingly.”

Zhou Li kissed the top of An Rui’s head and said softly, “When I come back from my business trip, let’s register our marriage, okay?”

An Rui widened her eyes. “Oh no.”

She only wanted to have a good relationship with him and had not thought about marriage.

Besides, what era were they in now? They did not have to get married after getting together.

Of course, after she gave herself to him, she would definitely marry him in a few years. But she was still young and did not want to be tied down by marriage too early.

Without giving Zhou Li a chance to speak, An Rui hugged his neck and bit the tip of his nose.

“Carry me to my room.”

Zhou Like’s control had always been amazing, but in front of the girl he had liked for many years, he could not be a saint anymore.

He carried her up and walked toward the bedroom.

An Rui caressed his clean and fresh hair with her fingertips. She leaned her chin on his shoulder and saw the box he had placed in the bedroom from the corner of her eye.

What did he say earlier?

He came back from a business trip?

“Where are you going?”

“Country M.”

“How long?”

“At least three months.”

An Rui furrowed her eyebrows and looked at Zhou Li.

“Why did you take so long?”

“Mm.”

Seeing that he had only hummed, the enthusiasm in An Rui’s heart seemed to be extinguished by fire.

Feeling her unhappiness, Zhou Li kissed her cheek. “Ruirui, believe me.”

An Rui felt that Zhou Li was hiding something from her, but if he did not say it, she would not force him.

The two of them did not get along well tonight.

An Rui did not want to stay here anymore and pushed him away without saying anything, walking towards the apartment opposite.

Zhou Li looked at her back and sighed slightly.

….

When Zhou Li came to the Shen family again, he had brought a suitcase.

He had already informed the director at the hospital that if he could treat Shen Mingxiu with an overseas expert, it would be a major breakthrough for him.

He might be able to help even more people who had lost all feeling below their coccyx in the future!

Surprise appeared in Shen Mingxiu’s eyes when he saw Zhou Li again.

“Why? Did you agree to my suggestion that night?”

That night when Zhou Li came, Shen Mingxiu told him to scram, but Zhou Li did not turn around and leave. He endured many of his harsh words.

Until Shen Mingxiu did not know what to say.

He looked at the calm and gentle Zhou Li and suddenly felt like a clown!

He could not accept Zhou Li and An Rui’s relationship. He could not calm down, but he knew that it was hard to change!

So he made a request.

Zhou Li went abroad with him and could not tell An Rui about this!

She thought that Zhou Li would not agree, but he had actually packed his luggage and came over.

“Old Shen, I hope you can keep your word. We can’t delay the surgery anymore.”

Hearing Zhou Li’s words, Shen Mingxiu’s face burned.

“Zhou Li, don’t be a saint. Whether I’m well or not has nothing to do with you!” Shen Mingxiu glared at Zhou Li angrily. “Don’t you remember what I did to you in the past? You stepped on the glasses An Rui gave you and deliberately said how much I loved me in front of you. You even slandered me and An Rui in front of our classmates!”“I’m so evil, why are you still talking to me?”

Zhou Li looked at the agitated Shen Mingxiu and said gently, “Old Shen, you’re not evil. I understand that you’re unwilling! I accompanied you abroad for treatment because you’re my classmate and I’m a doctor. I can’t watch you miss the best opportunity for the surgery. As long as you can let go of the past, I will help you regardless of the past.”

Hearing Zhou Li’s words, Shen Mingxiu looked at the ceiling with red eyes.

There was an indescribable feeling in her heart.

Before Xia Fan’s wedding, he did not understand why An Rui would like Zhou Li.

However, after what had happened to him, Zhou Li was still able to treat him as usual. He did not look down on him or hurt him, and wholeheartedly wanted him to go abroad for treatment. He also did his best to agree to his unreasonable requests. It was only then that he realized that the aura and charm Zhou Li had was something he could never compare to!
