Chapter 835: An Important Life
“I hope Julia will get better. Otherwise…” Ji Yinbing looked at Bruce and felt that G.o.d should love this man dearly. He was so loyal.
All the love and affection in the world should not be let down.
Bruce deserved to be happy.
Xiao Li was helping Julia straighten the skirt of her wedding gown. When she was done, she stood up and her hand was grabbed. Xiao Li looked up and smiled frivolously at Zhuang Long. “What are you doing? Use less strength. It hurts.”
Zhuang Long said nothing, but he relaxed his grip.
Zhuang Long was about to say something when Xiao Li suddenly said, “Let’s talk later. Now isn’t the time to chat.”
Suppressing the thousands of words in his heart, he nodded reluctantly.
Xiao Li was still busy. She had to push Julia and go to every table with Bruce to have a toast. Zhuang Long followed behind them without a word. Bruce glanced back at him and asked, “Why are you following us like a shadow?”
Zhuang Long pointed at his corsage.
Bruce glanced down and stared at the words “best man”. After a moment, he smiled. Bruce handed Zhuang Long a wine gla.s.s and said with a smile, “Then you have to be in charge of s.h.i.+elding me from the alcohol.”
Zhuang Long stared at the cup. In the end, he took it.
Finally, they arrived at Fang Yusheng’s table.
“Thank you for coming to my sister and Bruce’s wedding.” Xiao Li poured a gla.s.s of wine. She was already a little drunk, but she didn’t show it. She raised her gla.s.s to the table and said, “Apologize to Suzanne for me.”
Xiao Li knew that Suzanne was angry.
Ji Yinbing nodded.
Xiao Li was about to drink when a hand suddenly reached out and s.n.a.t.c.hed the wine gla.s.s from her hand. Seeing that Zhuang Long had drunk Xiao Li’s wine, Fang Yusheng and the others did not say anything.
Putting down the wine gla.s.s, Zhuang Long placed his hand on Fang Yusheng’s shoulder and glanced at everyone with a dark expression. Finally, he looked at Qiao Jiusheng and said, “You can go back after playing for another half a month.”
“What’s wrong?”
Zhuang Long pursed his lips and smiled. He nodded.
Fang Yusheng asked, “What is it?”
Zhuang Long said mysteriously, “This is a major event in my life!”
With that, Zhuang Long followed Xiao Li and the others to another table. Fang Yusheng and the others were all puzzled. A major event in their lives?
By the time all the guests left, it was already past three in the afternoon.
Xiao Li was completely drunk. She leaned on the table like she had no bones. Zhuang Long picked her up and prepared to send her to her room. The two of them had just entered the elevator when Xiao Li suddenly opened his eyes. Her eyes were bright as she looked at Zhuang Long and said, “You’re not allowed to take off my pants while I’m asleep.”
Zhuang Long was speechless.
“I’m not interested in raping corpses.” Those who were truly drunk would be lying limp on the bed. It would be meaningless to do so.
Xiao Li was so angry that she laughed.
“Very good!” Back then, who was the one who had pushed her against the wall and bullied her like a lunatic?
“Where’s Qilin?” He had not seen Zhuang Qilin at the scene today. Zhuang Long had always wanted to ask, and only now did he find an opportunity. Hearing this, Xiao Li punched Zhuang Long. “Let me down. I feel like vomiting.”
Zhuang Long lowered her from his arms to the ground.
Xiao Li steadied himself and held onto Zhuang Long. She covered his mouth with her hand and remained silent.
As soon as the elevator door opened, Xiao Li stumbled out. She found the trash can and vomited. Zhuang Long patted her back. Seeing that Xiao Li was planning to rest beside the trash can, Zhuang Long quickly scooped her up. He sent her to an empty guest room.
Xiao Li lay on the bed like a dead fish.
She said to Zhuang Long, “You’re right.”
“Yes?” Zhuang Long was pouring her a gla.s.s of water. Hearing this, he turned around and glanced at her.
Xiao Li said, “Doing that when you’re drunk does look like committing adultery.”
Raising his eyebrows, Zhuang Long did not reply.
Zhuang Long brought water over and helped Xiao Li sit up. Xiao Li lay in his arms and took a sip. Then, like a boneless cat, she fell back onto the bed and curled up into a ball. Zhuang Long sat beside her and looked at her. If Xiao Li were awake at this moment, she would realize how pa.s.sionate and gentle his gaze was.
Xiao Li buried her head between two pillows. Zhuang Long thought that she had fallen asleep, but Xiao Li’s m.u.f.fled voice rang out. “He’s at home. He said that he wasn’t feeling well and wanted to rest for a day. He was clearly very unhappy, but when I left home, he even smiled and wished me a happy marriage and happiness.”
Xiao Li seemed to be crying.
Zhuang Long heard her say, “Ever since that child lived with me, he was forced to grow up. He always said things that went against his heart. He clearly didn’t want me to marry Bruce, but he didn’t cry or make a fuss. He was so obedient. He was an angel bestowed by G.o.d.”
There was too much grievance in her heart. Xiao Li could not help but sob.
A hot body hugged her from behind.
Xiao Li knew that it was Zhuang Long, but she did not turn around, afraid that Zhuang Long would see her tears.
In front of Zhuang Long, Xiao Li thought that she was someone who cared about her reputation. Wouldn’t it be embarra.s.sing if he saw her tears? Zhuang Long seemed to know her concerns. He didn’t comfort her, nor did he turn her over. He just hugged her from behind.
Xiao Li was really drunk. In the beginning, he felt a little uncomfortable, but gradually, he fell asleep.
Sensing that the person in his arms had fallen asleep, Zhuang Long still did not let go of her. He kissed Xiao Li’s head and buried his head in Xiao Li’s neck. She smelled faintly of perfume. Zhuang Long did not know much about perfume, but he found the fragrance charming.
Many years ago, Xiao Li had loved this perfume.
Zhuang Long thought to himself: When she wakes up, I must ask her what perfume she uses.
With this thought in mind, Zhuang Long fell asleep.
When he woke up again, Zhuang Long realized that he was lying on his side. He had not been sleeping well these past few days. This afternoon, he hugged Xiao Li and slept soundly. He didn’t even know when Xiao Li pushed him away or when she got out of bed.
Zhuang Long sat up, thinking that Xiao Li had already left.
At this moment, the bathroom door was suddenly pulled open. Xiao Li walked out in a hotel robe.
The hotel’s sleeping gowns were all brand new and made of black silk. Xiao Li’s skin was fair, and she was wearing black, making her skin look even fairer. Her blond hair had been washed and wrapped in a towel, and there were a few drops of water on her neck.
To Zhuang Long, who had not had s.e.x for many years, Xiao Li was like a dose of aphrodisiac. Its aphrodisiac effect was indescribable.
“How long have you been awake?” Zhuang Long’s voice was hoa.r.s.e.
Stunned, Xiao Li glanced at his crotch.
Zhuang Long straightened one leg and bent the other. Xiao Li looked over and could see the reaction between his legs. Xiao Li was a little surprised, but Zhuang Long did not avoid her. He slowly stood up and leaned towards Xiao Li.
He took off the towel on Xiao Li’s head.
Zhuang Long stood behind Xiao Li and wiped her wet hair with a towel.
