Chapter 676: Fierceness and Tenderness
Huo Yan stood motionless under the water column. In a moment, she was soaked and tears began to roll down her face.
I had guessed this would happen!
Zhuang Zhoucheng would not stay in Kyoto, but she still hoped so.
He had been lying to her and perfunctorily answering her questions, saying things like "a few days, a few days", and after a few days, it became forever.
Huo Yan squatted on the ground and cried, hugging her knees tightly, tears flowing out with the water.
Zhuang Zhoucheng brought her a bathrobe. When he opened the door and saw her like this, he frowned slightly, put the robe aside, walked over, and turned off the water with a gloomy face.
"The water is so cold, you still want to go to the hospital?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng stood tall in front of her, and his heart ached when he saw the small ball squatting on the ground.
He stood for a moment, half-knelt in front of her, and pulled her soaking wet body into his arms:
"Stop crying, huh?"
Huo Yan bit her lip, tears streaming down her face, but she didn't cry out loud.
Zhuang Zhoucheng patted her back gently and asked in a low voice:
"Yan'er, what do you want me to do? Move the headquarters to Kyoto? And bring everyone in the banker's family to Kyoto?"
"Why didn't you say so earlier? Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Huo Yan suddenly grabbed his clothes and pulled hard. He pulled her hand away, but she clenched her fist and hit his shoulder.
"You won't live in Kyoto, so why are you provoking me? Why are you marrying me? I won't leave Kyoto, you know that, yet you still force me!"
Huo Yan looked at him with red eyes.
Zhuang Zhou Chengda tightened his grip on her wrist, pulled her up, and shouted angrily:
"What difference does it make which city you live in? If you have me in your heart, why would you care about these things?"
Huo Yan's tears rolled down her cheeks as she looked at him with tearful eyes:
"Do you think that I should just live for you? That I don't need to have my own life, or do anything else?"
Zhuang Zhou looked at her with anger and sullen expression:
"Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. If you feel that living in the capital is unfair to you, then leave. I, Zhuang Zhoucheng, don't need you!"
"...Zhuang Zhoucheng, you are so cruel..."
Huo Yan's tears kept rolling down.
Zhuang Zhoucheng released her hands, calmly unbuttoned her wet cuffs, and then unbuttoned the buttons on his body one by one, declaring in a cold voice.
"If you want to continue your studies, you can! I've already arranged for you to enroll at Beijing University. You can study for your master's degree here in Beijing. The educational level at Beijing University is on par with universities abroad. If you don't want to continue your studies and want to work, that's fine too. Come to me and start small. I'll support you in whatever direction you want to pursue. I'll teach you step by step, and you'll learn much more than if you ventured out on your own."
Huo Yan pursed her lips, her lips trembling slightly, and looked at him with red eyes.
"What is this? Zhuang Zhoucheng, what is this?"
Huo Yan pushed him away and rushed out of the bathroom.
Zhuang Zhoucheng immediately chased after him, but before Huo Yan could run out of the room, Zhuang Zhoucheng pulled her back.
"Let me go, Zhuang Zhou, let me go!"
Huo Yan twisted his hand hard, turned around and bit his wrist hard. Zhuang Zhoucheng's eyes were red with anger, but he let her go crazy.
Huo Yan bit him fiercely, but he didn't move. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she let go of his hand and stood in front of him with tears streaming down her face.
"Zhuang Zhoucheng, you can't do this. You decide everything by yourself. I don't want to stay in the capital, I don't want to study here, and I don't want to live in the Zhuang family forever."
Huo Yan cried out loudly, and as the tears rolled down, she immediately raised her hand to wipe them away, looking at him stubbornly.
Zhuang Zhoucheng responded coldly:
"reason!"
"I just don't want to. Do you need a reason?" Huo Yan shouted angrily.
"That's unreasonable?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng's cold face made people feel chilled. Huo Yan bit her lip and looked at him.
Zhuang Zhoucheng stepped forward and Huo Yan took a few steps back.
Zhuang Zhoucheng suddenly shouted angrily:
"Come here! You're still lawless!"
Zhuang Zhoucheng grabbed the man and pushed him towards the bathroom. Huo Yan stumbled and entered the bathroom. Zhuang Zhoucheng said angrily:
"Stand still, try to run away, and see if I break your legs!"
Huo Yan looked at him with tears on her face.
Zhuang Zhoucheng gave her a cold look before turning around to fill the bathtub with water.
While the water was being released, Zhuang Zhoucheng stood with his back to her, probably trying to calm down his anger.
Huo Yan looked at Zhuang Zhoucheng's broad back, tears of grievance rolling down her cheeks, which she kept wiping away.
The pool overflowed, and Zhuang Zhoucheng finally came to his senses. He first tested the water temperature, then turned around and pulled Huo Yan forward.
"Soak for a while. You haven't fully recovered yet. Don't get sick again."
Zhuang Zhoucheng said in a low voice as he took off her clothes.
Huo Yan suddenly hugged Zhuang Zhoucheng and cried softly:
"Zhuang Zhoucheng, please don't be so overbearing, okay? Please don't force me to do things I don't like, okay?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng stood still, took a deep breath, pulled her body away, and carried her into the bathtub.
"Don't catch a cold, your body is cold." Zhuang Zhoucheng said in a low voice.
Huo Yan stood up, but Zhuang Zhoucheng pushed her down again, his anger rising:
"obedient!"
Huo Yan looked at him and bit her lip. The fierce Zhuang Zhoucheng from before was back, and his gentleness was all her illusion.
"I don't want to be obedient anymore, Zhuang Zhoucheng, I want to go home..."
Huo Yan lay on the edge of the bathtub, crying inconsolably.
After knowing each other for two years, he still had the same temper as at the beginning, getting angry at her at every turn without giving any explanation.
He arranged all her affairs by himself and never asked for her opinion.
Zhuang Zhoucheng half-knelt down and gently stroked her head with his big hand:
"Isn't home where I am?"
When Huo Yan heard his voice soften, she immediately hugged his hands and begged softly:
"Zhuang Zhoucheng, can't we go to Kyoto?"
"Then tell me, what is it in Kyoto that you can't give up?" Zhuang Zhou asked seriously.
This day will come sooner or later. School is about to start. I can't delay it for a few days, so I might as well lay it out and explain it clearly now.
"Relatives? I can send a special plane to Kyoto at any time to bring your father to the capital for treatment. Friends? Your college classmates have all gone their separate ways now. How many of them are still in Kyoto? Even if you live in Kyoto, how often can you see them? If you are not husband and wife, why do friends need to see each other every day? What do you think, huh?"
"You clearly knew that your family didn't like me and that I would be bullied, yet you still insisted on having me live with the banker..."
Zhuang Zhoucheng said in a firm tone:
"That was in the past. I neglected these things before. I promise that such things will never happen again. Now, I am the head of this family, your husband, and no one dares to touch you anymore. All the servants in the Zhuang family will be replaced tomorrow, and you will be responsible for the management of the new servants. You can even ask the eldest wife to do the same. In the Zhuang family, you are now the mistress. Do you understand?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng held her face seriously and spoke every word seriously.
Huo Yan bit her lip and said softly:
"This is the compensation you're talking about, right?"
