Letting Loose After Marrying A Tycoon-Chapter 497: Boyfriend, Do You Want to Hold Hands?
Chapter 497: Boyfriend, Do You Want to Hold Hands?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Han Miao never expected Baby Tian to experience such a thing.
The young man whom Baby Tian had a crush on for so many years was actually such a jerk.
Han Miao had always been clear about Zhou Heng’s scumbag nature, but she thought that Zhou Heng was at most a little fickle and liked to walk among different girls. Unexpectedly, Zhou Heng was not only a scumbag, he was also a complete beast!
It was a crime for Zhou Heng to force Baby Tian to have sex. It was a crime!
Han Miao’s heart ached for Lin Yutian’s plight. She didn’t even dare to think about how hopeless and afraid Lin Yutian was that night. Han Miao pressed Lin Yutian into her arms. “Baby Tian, don’t be afraid.”
Lin Yutian grabbed Han Miao’s sweater tightly and cried in her arms.
The young girl was afraid. As she cried, she said in a choked voice, “That night, I walked out of Zhou Heng’s room. I stood alone by the Great River of Imperial Dragon for a long time. I nearly jumped into the river. If not for a cleaner seeing and saving me, Miaoyi, I might have already died!”
Han Miao’s heart thumped wildly at Lin Yutian’s words.
“You’re so silly!”
Han Miao pressed Lin Yutian’s shoulder and pushed her away from her arms. She stared at Lin Yutian’s tear-filled face and said, “Baby Tian, you shouldn’t have risked your life for such a beast! You should have gone to the police!”
“But he has my video!” Lin Yutian also wanted to call the police to seek justice for herself, but she was more afraid that Zhou Heng would release that video.
Han Miao was a bystander. She was calmer than Lin Yutian. She said, “Let’s not talk about whether the video exists or not. Even if it does, Zhou Heng wouldn’t dare to release it. Zhou Heng is the person who violated you. You showed strong resistance throughout the entire process. After the video is released, it will instead help the police convict him!”
“Baby Tian, you were scared by Zhou Heng.”
Lin Yutian was an innocent girl. She was no match for that jerk Zhou Heng at all. Zhou Heng had just casually said a few words to scare her, but she was already at a loss.
But as a bystander, Han Miao was calm and smart. She didn’t think Zhou Heng would really dare to release the video. If he did, he would face the risk of entering the youth’s house because of a crime.
Lin Yutian wiped her tears and said, “I also thought of what you said. I also secretly called Zhou Heng and asked him to delete the video and apologize to me. But guess what he said. He said that it was impossible for him to delete the video. He also said that even if the video was released, the only one whose reputation was truly ruined was me. Zhou Heng’s family was rich and powerful, and he was underage. Even if he really committed the crime of raping a woman, he would only be locked up in juvie for a few years. When he came out, his life would still be wonderful. What about me?”
Lin Yutian was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She said, “Everyone will see the video of me being violated and will know my experience. My life will be ruined!”
“Damn it!” Han Miao was so angry that she exploded. She stood up, kicked Lin Yutian’s bedpost, supported herself with both hands, and scolded. “Son of a bitch! So damn vicious!”
Zhou Heng was neither a human nor a human, but everything he said was right. After that incident was exposed, Zhou Heng would at most be sent to the young man’s prison for a few years. After he came out, he would still be the rich young master of the Zhou Family.
Meanwhile, Lin Yutian would live under the strange gazes of her classmates. In the future, when she got married, she might be despised and picky by her partner.
Her entire life is ruined!
“Then are we going to hide it like this?” Han Miao was indignant. She said, “Why can a bastard get away with it! This might not be the first time that Zhou Heng has done such a thing! If we don’t expose his true colors, someone might even get hurt!”
“Damn it!”
Han Miao grabbed her hair and thought of something. She squatted beside Lin Yutian’s legs and said, “Baby Tian, my sister is very powerful. She must know how to handle this matter. If you trust her, I can hand this matter to my sister to settle...”
Before Han Miao could finish speaking, Lin Yutian shook her head vigorously.
Han Miao stopped talking.
Lin Yutian hugged Han Miao. Her tears fell on Han Miao’s neck and neck. She said painfully, “Miaozi, I beg you not to tell anyone about this. I am afraid! I am really afraid!”
Lin Yutian had good grades and would definitely be able to attend a major university in the future. She would also have a good job in the future. But if this matter was really exposed, the rest of her life would really be ruined.
Lin Yutian grabbed the sweater on Han Miao’s back tightly. She said hatefully, “Miaoyi, I can only endure it. For my reputation and future, I can only swallow my teeth!”
Han Miao’s heart ached for Lin Yutian and she cried. “Baby Tian, I really want to kill that bastard...”
Grandma heard the commotion in the house and knocked on the door. “Little Tian, Miaomiao, are you guys crying?”
Lin Yutian hurriedly covered her mouth and blinked at Han Miao. Han Miao hurriedly wiped her tears and looked up at her grandmother outside the door. “Grandma, we are watching a television drama. It’s too sad.”
Grandma was getting old and her health was not good. She had to go and rest. She said, “Grandma is going to sleep. Don’t cry. You still have to report to school tomorrow. You won’t be obedient if your eyes are swollen.”
“Alright, Grandma.”
Hearing her grandmother’s dragging footsteps leave, Han Miao took away Lin Yutian’s hand that was covering her lips. She said to Lin Yutian, “Baby Tian, we must take revenge for this. After the college entrance examination ends and we change schools, I will discuss with Junjun how to take revenge on that Zhou Heng.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer all this for nothing.”
“... Mm.”
At this moment, Han Miao’s cell phone rang.
Han Miao answered the call and heard Han Zhan call her downstairs. She wiped Lin Yutian’s tears and said, “I have to go back. Baby Tian, let’s meet at school tomorrow.”
“Mmm. Okay.”
Lin Yutian rushed into the toilet to wash her face before sending Han Miao downstairs.
The two of them took the lift down.
On the way to the main entrance of the community, Lin Yutian suddenly grabbed Han Miao’s hand and asked her, “Miaoyi, do you think I’m dirty?”
Hearing her question, Han Miao was so angry that her face darkened. She pressed Lin Yutian’s thin shoulders, her expression serious, and said to her in a serious tone, “Baby Tian, don’t think of yourself as very dirty. The dirty one is not you, but the Zhou Heng who hurt you. You are the victim, you are clean!”
Hearing Han Miao’s words, Lin Yutian’s broken heart was fixed. Her mouth pouted and she nearly cried again.
Lin Yutian controlled herself.
She held Han Miao’s hand tightly and said, “I keep thinking that if I had received Zhou Heng’s message that night and rejected him directly, nothing else would have happened.”
“I shouldn’t have trusted a boy I don’t know so easily. It’s also a sign of my lack of self-respect that I went out to fetch him in the middle of the night. If this matter gets out, someone will definitely scold me for not having self-respect and self-love.”
“Miaoyi, am I really not self-respecting?” This was the most conflicted part of Lin Yutian’s heart. She felt that she was being self-centered and gave Zhou Heng the chance to hurt her.
If this matter was exposed, many people would also look at her with unbearable gazes, such as—
She went to the KTV late at night to pick up a drunk boy and sent him to the hotel to rest. It was obvious that she wanted to have sex with him! Who could she blame if she lost her virginity?
She was the one who wanted to meet him but rejected him. She purposely posed to seduce Zhou Heng!
She had had a crush on Zhou Heng for so long and had even confessed to him. It was obvious that she liked him. If Zhou Heng slept with her, she would definitely be overjoyed!
... All sorts of thoughts were enough to kill this innocent girl.
Han Miao saw through Lin Yutian’s thoughts. She pinched Lin Yutian’s slender, meatless fingers, licked her lips, and said, “Baby Tian, I will never look at you that way. You like Zhou Heng and are worried about him. But Zhou Heng shouldn’t hurt you with your fondness for him.”
“Baby Tian, even if everyone doesn’t believe you, I will always believe you.”
Hearing Han Miao’s words, Lin Yutian finally felt at ease. “Miaoyi, I am very lucky to be your good friend.”
“Me too.”
Beep.
Standing in front of the car, Han Zhan had already seen Lin Yutian and Han Miao. Seeing that the two girls were holding hands and talking, sticking to each other and not letting go, he bent over into the car, honked, and urged Han Miao to come out quickly.
Hearing the sound of a horn, Han Miao turned to look out of the community. Seeing Han Zhan’s car, Han Miao hurriedly said to Lin Yutian, “My father is getting impatient from waiting. Baby Tian, I’ll get going first. See you tomorrow.”
“Okay!”
Lin Yutian escorted Han Miao to the entrance of the community and said respectfully to Han Zhan, “Uncle Han, good evening.”
Han Zhan reached out and patted her head. He quickly retracted his hand and said, “Miaomiao caused trouble for you today. It must be very tiring for you to rush her homework.”
Han Miao stuck out her tongue at Lin Yutian.
Lin Yutian said with a red face, “No, not at all.”
“I’ll get going first. Come to our house with Miaomiao next time.”
“Okay.”
Han Zhan and Han Miao got into the car.
Han Zhan drove personally and Han Miao sat in the passenger seat.
Han Zhan watched as Lin Yutian entered the community before starting the car and leaving. As the car drove into the main road, Han Zhan suddenly said, “That little classmate of yours cried. Why?”
In a moment of impulse, Han Miao blurted out, “Father, Baby Tian was...” Han Miao nearly said Lin Yutian’s experience. Only when she was about to say it did she remember that she had already promised Lin Yutian not to tell anyone about this.
As this concerned her good friend’s innocence, Han Miao had to be tight-lipped.
Han Miao shook her head and lied. “When we were waiting for you, we watched a movie and cried bitterly.”
“What movie is so good?”
“Loyal dogs.”
Han Zhan chuckled and said, “Every time your mother watches that movie, she will cry and her makeup will rub.”
“Useless.”
“Are you promising?”
Han Miao pouted and hugged her bag without saying a word.
When they arrived home, Song Ci was sitting alone in the living room watching television and waiting for them. There was a thick layer of face mask on her face.
Seeing that Han Miao and Han Zhan had returned home safely, Song Ci greeted them before getting up to go to the washroom to wash her facial mask.
After washing her face, she walked out and wiped her face with a bottle of skincare products. Song Ci had to do skincare for her entire body every night before bed. Her entire body, from her hair to her toes, was wrapped in money. Every part of her was exquisite.
After wiping her face, Song Ci told Han Miao, “Sleep early when you’re back. I’ll bring you to school tomorrow morning to report.” She still had to go back to her room to do full-body maintenance. After saying this, she entered the lift and prepared to return to her room.
Han Miao shouted at the slowly rising lift, “Mother, don’t trouble yourself. We can settle it ourselves!”
Song Ci’s voice came from above. “Mother is so beautiful. I have to visit your school more!”
Han Miao:”...”
Han Miao turned and asked Han Zhan behind her, “Father, when you married her, did you know that she was such a narcissist?”
Han Zhan stared in the direction of the lift with a doting gaze. He said, “Narcissistic people are usually the most beautiful. Your mother has the right to be narcissistic.”
Han Miao rolled her eyes and returned to her house with her bag.
Han Zheng and Han Jun were still awake and playing basketball in the basketball court behind the house.
Han Miao threw her bag in the living room and crossed the living room to the backyard. She squatted under the roof and stared at Han Jun. There were several times when she wanted to call Han Jun over and tell her about Baby Tian, but she controlled herself in the end.
The two of them were tired from playing, so they carried the ball and stood in front of Han Miao. Han Zheng asked Han Miao, “Are you done with your homework?”
Han Zheng had grown taller in the past half a year and was almost comparable to Han Jun. Han Miao looked up at her siblings and realized that they were both taller than her. Her heart turned cold.
She got up, picked up the basketball in Han Zheng’s hand, stared at the basketball hoop in the distance, and asked thoughtfully, “Do you guys think I can grow another five centimeters taller if I start basketball now?”
Han Zheng chuckled and suggested sincerely, “Why don’t you sleep and have a good dream?”
Han Jun said, “I know a famous bone plastic surgery hospital internationally. If you’re not afraid of side effects, I can contact that hospital for you and perform an enhancement surgery.”
Han Miao threw the basketball far away, snorted, turned around, and returned to the living room.
The siblings climbed the stairs to their rooms. Han Zheng’s room was on the third floor. He bid farewell to the two sisters on the second floor and returned to his room.
Han Miao and Han Jun’s room door was facing the door. Han Miao opened the door of her room and was about to enter when she heard Han Jun say, “Did you cry?”
Han Miao was shocked by Han Jun’s observation skills.
She had indeed cried, but the swelling in her eyes had subsided and was not obvious. But Han Jun was the person who knew Han Miao the best in this world. She only needed to look at Han Miao’s eyes to know that she had cried earlier.
Han Miao still lied. “I watched Loyal Dogs.”
Han Jun didn’t believe him. “You haven’t finished your homework. How can you have the time to watch that?”
“I watched it after I was done.”
Han Jun added. “Don’t lie. If you really finish your homework, you will definitely have a cup of milk tea or ice drink to celebrate. You won’t watch a movie.”
Han Miao:”...”
She was completely convinced.
“Junjun, can I trust you?” Han Miao looked at Han Jun seriously.
Han Jun walked up to Han Miao and stared at her fair, beautiful face. She said, “I am the only person in this world who can bully you and also the person you can entrust your life to.”
Han Miao stared at Han Jun for a few seconds before leaning into her arms wearily. Han Jun’s body stiffened slightly, then she raised her hand and hugged Han Miao. She asked Han Miao, “What’s the matter?”
Han Miao grabbed Han Jun’s arm and said, “Jun’er, Baby Tian was bullied.”
Han Jun narrowed her eyes.
“Tell me in detail.”
Han Miao pulled Han Jun into the room. The sisters sat on the small sofa in the room. Han Miao told Han Jun what happened to Lin Yutian.
After hearing this, Han Jun was also slightly angry. “Zhou Heng, is he that commissary in charge of studies in Class 21?”
Zhou Heng’s family started off by building a cruise ship. A few years ago, they started their family business in County Yang City. Later on, the family’s businesses became wider and wider. That year, when the Old Master was old, a few juniors in the family fought over the family assets and inheritance rights. The brothers’ conflicts were very unpleasant.
Later on, Zhou Heng’s second grandfather obtained the inheritance rights. In order to protect his life, Zhou Heng’s grandfather brought his wife and children to Wangdong City.
Zhou Heng’s grandfather opened an insurance company in Wangdong City. Later on, it grew bigger and bigger. Now, it was one of the five major insurance companies in the country.
Zhou Heng’s family was a truly wealthy and powerful family.
Against Zhou Heng, Lin Yutian was like an ant trying to bite an elephant to death. She used all her strength to deliver a fatal blow to the elephant. To the elephant, it was just an itch.
Han Jun had already been working beside Han Zhan for a long time. Han Jun knew very well which young masters and daughters of wealthy families were hidden in her school. Although she was not familiar with Zhou Heng, she knew him. She would also nod and greet him when she met him in school.
Seeing that Han Jun remained silent, Han Miao asked Han Jun, “Jun’er, isn’t it very difficult for Tian Bao to defeat that Zhou Heng?”
Han Jun said, “It’s like ascending to heaven.”
Han Miao’s face turned pale.
Han Jun added, “If this happened to you, I would risk my life to drag the Zhou Family down with me. It’s not worth it to offend the Zhou Family for Lin Yutian.” Han Jun was born with cold-bloodedness and indifference. She would do anything to protect her family. Towards others, what she valued was always benefits.
When Han Miao heard Han Jun’s words, although she was slightly disappointed, she couldn’t blame Han Jun for anything. Han Jun was the successor of Zeus Corporation. Her every word and action represented the Han Family and Zeus Corporation. Every decision she made and every word she said represented Zeus Corporation’s attitude.
For Lin Yutian, offending the Zhou Family and sending the young master of the Zhou Family to prison was indeed not worth it.
Realizing the reality, Han Miao wanted to cry but had no tears. “Then Jun’er, can Baby Tiano only suffer this in silence?”
Han Miao grabbed Han Jun’s hand and said, “Jun’er, help Tian Bao. She’s my best friend! I don’t ask you to deal with the Zhou Family. I just hope that you can think of a way to find out if that Zhou Heng has that kind of video!”
Han Jun couldn’t bear to reject Han Miao’s trusting gaze. She hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’ll reply to you tomorrow night.”
“Okay.”
–
The next morning.
Song Ci was wearing a warm gray turtleneck which showed off her waist, a pair of black wide-legged leather pants, and a pair of white shoes as she walked out of the lift.
She was wearing a long black coat over her shoulders. There was a white diamond brooch on the chest of the coat and a white leather bag on her wrist. She was elegant and charismatic. Anyone who saw her couldn’t help but look away.
Hearing the sound of the lift door opening, Han Zhan looked over at Song Ci and saw her fair waist under her sweater.
Han Zhan put down the small bowl filled with hot soup, picked up a handkerchief, wiped his mouth, frowned slightly, and asked Song Ci, “Must you wear this?”
Song Ci walked around in front of Han Zhan and said, “Doesn’t it look good?”
Han Zhan said, “You are the mother of three children. It’s not suitable for you to go to school revealing your waist.”
Song Ci said, “Of course not. The streets are filled with revealed waists.”
Han Zhan poured a glass of water and took a sip before saying, “They are ugly and can only show their waists. You are different. You look good and you can jjust show your face.”
Hearing Han Zhan’s compliment, Song Ci blinked and curled her lips. “You have a point.” Song Ci fluttered into the lift like a butterfly and went upstairs to change.
Seeing that she was finally willing to go back and change clothes, Han Zhan picked up the soup bowl, took a small spoon, and continued drinking.
Han Zheng complained softly. “Only Father can fool our mother.”
Han Miao supported her chin with one hand and stared at Han Zhan’s side profile with a smile. “Father, were you jealous just now?”
Han Zhan glanced at the three children and said, “When your mother was young, she was the number one beauty in Wangdong City and had many admirers. At that time, I met one or two of her admirers at every cocktail party.”
“Even if she is already a middle-aged woman now, she will still be stared at by the young and old things when she walks out. If I don’t watch her closely, I will accidentally have another love rival.”
Han Zhan pointed at his temples and said, “Your mother is harder to deal with than work.”
The three children looked sympathetic.
On the day of the report, the school was packed with people and cars were parked outside the school. Song Ci and the rest arrived slightly late and didn’t have a car seat. They could only park the car under the rented house and walk to the school to report.
Song Ci took off that warm gray turtleneck waist-length sweater and changed into an apricot-colored sweater. She walked at the front of the three children with a pair of sunglasses on her face. Her aura was fully released and attracted the attention of many people along the way.
Li Ao stood at the school gate and saw the beautiful Auntie Song from afar. He was too embarrassed to look at her. Song Ci walked up to Li Ao and snapped her fingers. “Neil, have you been waiting for a long time?”
Li Ao shook his head slightly.
Song Ci chuckled and said to Li Ao, “Follow me. Your mother entrusted me to help you register. Don’t get lost.”
Li Ao obediently followed beside Han Miao and acted like an obedient baby.
Song Ci first brought them to the Year Two office to report. The teachers were very passionate about Song Ci. After all, Han Zhan and his wife had already donated two buildings to the school and even sponsored many poor students.
After registering for Han Miao and the other two, Song Ci brought Han Zheng to report at the third-floor office building. After registering, Song Ci drifted out of the school like a butterfly and left.
ce Song Ci left, the four children heaved a sigh of relief.
Han Miao and Li Ao arrived at the classroom. The moment they entered, they heard someone shout. “Han Miao, we saw your mother. She’s still so beautiful!”
Han Miao cupped her hands and pretended to be humble. “Not at all, not at all.”
Li Ao looked at Han Miao’s obviously overjoyed expression, but still pretended to be calm and composed. His lips curled up slightly.
The school stipulated that from the second semester of the second year onwards, all students had to attend evening self-study. The students who stayed in the school had three lessons and the students just studied had two.
On the night of the registration, it was time for evening self-study.
In the afternoon Baby Tian arrived at school to report. Han Miao accompanied Baby Tian to the canteen for dinner. The two of them returned to the classroom a few minutes before the evening self-study.
There was no need for class tonight. The form teacher walked into the classroom and told everyone, “Tonight, we will rearrange our seats according to the results of last semester’s final exam.”
All the students were driven to the corridor and waited for the teacher to call out names before entering the classroom to choose their seats.
Han Miao’s results for the final exam last semester was 12th in the class and Li Ao was 19th. Han Miao tapped Li Ao’s shoulder and Li Ao turned to look at her, asking her what she was doing with his eyes.
Han Miao told Li Ao, “I will choose the second last row and try to sit by the window. Sit beside me later.”
With that, Han Miao was called in by the form teacher.
The desks in the class were arranged according to the standard of 2.42. There were two desks on both sides and four desks in the middle. Han Miao chose the leftmost seat in the second last row, close to the window. This was a spot that would not be discovered even if they held hands.
After Han Miao sat down, she didn’t allow anyone to choose the seat beside her. Li Ao naturally became Han Miao’s deskmate.
The form teacher of the second class didn’t come and entrusted the class monitor, Lin Yutian, to sit on the podium to maintain discipline. Lin Yutian carried the new teaching materials to the podium and sat down. She looked like she was reading, but she was actually slightly distracted.
After a winter break, everyone was slightly excited on the first day of class. The class was noisy and Lin Yutian couldn’t quiet them down.
It was Li Ao’s first time sitting beside Han Miao. This was an unprecedented experience. He was so excited that he couldn’t help stealing glances at Han Miao beside him.
Han Miao caught Li Ao peeping at her. She took off a post-it note, wrote something on it with a pen, folded the post into a paper crane, and handed it to Li Ao.
Li Ao put down the pen in his hand and carefully removed the paper crane. He saw the words: [Boyfriend, do you want to hold my hand?]
Li Ao’s ears turned red.
He silently folded the paper crane according to the marks. Then, he hid his hand under the table and secretly held Han Miao’s hand.
Their hands were hidden under the table, their fingers intertwined.
