Chapter 1755: Warmth in the Study
Seeing Teng Ziyue's expression, Huo Junting felt heartbroken. He suddenly realized that what he had just said might have made Teng Ziyue sad.
He stepped forward and wanted to hug Teng Ziyue gently, but before his hand touched Teng Ziyue's sleeve, Teng Ziyue dodged and looked at Huo Junting calmly.
"Junting, I don't know how you know that Hong Jingran is interested in me. You just said that I didn't agree to your proposal because of Hong Jingran. What you said is too hurtful to me."
Teng Ziyue's aggressive tone made Huo Junting feel a little heartbroken. He regretted the words he just said countless times in his mind.
Seeing Huo Junting's complicated expression, Teng Ziyue continued: "Junting, I don't agree to marry you now because I am not fully prepared. I am afraid that it will be like the New Year again."
Teng Ziyue's voice became smaller and smaller. In fact, these were the words that had been hidden in her heart. She never dared to tell Huo Junting, fearing that Huo Junting would think she was thinking nonsense.
After she finished speaking, Teng Ziyue's eyes were misty, and she looked at Huo Junting, who had a complicated face in front of her, pitifully.
The two of them were in a stalemate, and no one spoke until a car drove over not far away, and the sound of the horn pulled their thoughts back.
"Let's go home first."
Huo Junting touched Teng Ziyue's sleeves and found it a little cold, so he helped Teng Ziyue's shoulders to get into the car.
The car drove slowly on the road, and there was no conversation all the way. After returning home, the two of them also tacitly ignored each other and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Aunt Wang and Teng's mother felt that the two looked a little bad. After looking at each other, Teng's mother walked to Teng Ziyue's side.
"Yueyue, what's wrong?"
Teng's mother asked softly in Teng Ziyue's ear, her eyes intentionally or unintentionally looking at Huo Junting who was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.
"Mom, it's nothing. Is the meal ready? I'm a little hungry."
Teng Ziyue pretended to be calm and asked her mother, but she regretted it as soon as she finished speaking. It was still two hours before dinner time, and she was actually hungry.
"Are you hungry? Then I'll make it for you right away."
But Teng's mother didn't think much about it. After Teng Ziyue finished speaking, she stood up and walked towards the study.
Seeing the back of Teng's mother, Teng Ziyue was speechless. She was obviously lying just now.
At this moment, Huo Junting, who was sitting aside, suddenly stood up, coughed lightly in the direction of Teng Ziyue, and walked upstairs.
Teng Ziyue didn't understand Huo Junting's thoughts, but after hearing the cough, she still stood up and followed behind Huo Junting.
Huo Junting opened the door of the study, entered the door, and waited for Teng Ziyue in the room.
Seeing Huo Junting's behavior, Teng Ziyue suddenly felt a little embarrassed for some reason, just like the mood when she was with Huo Junting just now.
As soon as Teng Ziyue stepped into the study, Huo Junting pulled her into the study and closed the door heavily.
Just when Teng Ziyue was about to scold Huo Junting, Huo Junting pushed her into the corner.
"Junting, what do you want to do? It's still broad daylight, and my mother and Aunt Wang are still downstairs."
Teng Ziyue's words seemed to have no effect at all. As soon as she finished speaking, Huo Junting blocked her mouth.
The two hugged each other tightly. At first, Teng Ziyue wanted to refuse Huo Junting's invasion, but later, she compromised.
After a lingering, Teng Ziyue slept on the sofa, breathing heavily. She lay in Huo Junting's arms. She was still a little angry with Huo Junting before, but all the complaints had disappeared at this time.
"Yueyue, I was too impulsive today. Can you forgive me?"
Huo Junting smelled the fragrance of Teng Ziyue's hair, and his mind was full of what Teng Ziyue said in the underground parking lot today.
Whenever he thought of it, Huo Junting felt distressed.
Hearing Huo Junting's words, Teng Ziyue snorted softly and rubbed in Huo Junting's arms again.
"I forgive you, but I hope you won't be jealous again in the future. I don't agree to your proposal, but it doesn't mean that I don't want to marry you, but I hope you can give me some time, okay?"
Teng Ziyue's voice became more and more gentle, and every word and sentence made Huo Junting feel like spring breeze.
"Okay."
The word "okay" calmed the two of them down.
Perhaps because it was too intense just now, Teng Ziyue fell asleep after a while of calmness.
Huo Junting looked down at Teng Ziyue who was sleeping in his arms, and he was very happy in his heart. This feeling was something he would never get tired of in his life.
Teng Ziyue slept in Huo Junting's arms for almost an hour until she was awakened by the knock on the door of Teng's mother.
"Yueyue, come down to eat, didn't you say you were hungry?"
She was still dreaming, but the knock on the door of Teng's mother and the sound of her talking woke Teng Ziyue up.
Teng Ziyue rubbed her sleepy eyes unhappily, looked at the thin blanket covering her body, and guessed that it was Huo Junting who covered her. She stood up and was about to open the door when she heard Huo Junting's voice.
"I'll go." As soon as Huo Junting finished speaking, Teng Ziyue saw his figure.
Seeing that Huo Junting had gone, Teng Ziyue turned back and sat by the bed. At this time, she was not awake at all and wanted to sleep a little longer.
After the door was opened, Teng's mother saw Teng Ziyue sitting by the bed in the room with a sleepy face. After smiling at Huo Junting, she walked in.
"Yueyue, do you want to sleep a little longer?"
Teng Ziyue's motherly look warmed her heart. She wanted to sleep a little longer, but she stood up and looked at her mother and shook her head.
"No, I'm starving. Let's go downstairs to eat."
Teng Ziyue didn't want to disappoint her mother. She tidied up her messy hair, took her mother's hand, looked at Huo Junting meaningfully, and then took her mother's hand and went downstairs.
After walking to the dining room, Teng Ziyue saw that the table was full of her favorite food. Teng Ziyue, who was not hungry at first, had a strong appetite after seeing it. She smiled at her mother and sat at the table to eat.
Teng's mother was very happy to see Teng Ziyue eating with relish. Since she was released from prison, she felt that her life was getting more and more comfortable.
During this period of time, Teng's mother felt that it was the best thing to have her daughter by her side.
Before staying in the Ming family, she always felt that she was just repaying her gratitude, but she failed to repay her gratitude and was framed instead.
Perhaps Teng's mother should also be grateful for Ming Ya'an's frame-up. If Ming Ya'an had not framed her, she would definitely not be able to live the life she has now. Being able to see Teng Ziyue every day is the most satisfying thing for her.
