Chapter 155: You Can Only Marry Me in This Life

It turned out that having a few people stay for Western food was the right decision.

Su Yi had thought that Western food in this era wouldn’t be that good, but the taste was beyond her expectations.

Moreover, the two children were extremely excited and said they would have a good chat with their little friends when they got back.

After half a glass of red wine, Su Yi’s mood gradually rose.

However, she knew her alcohol tolerance and didn’t dare to drink more.

Although Zhou Jinchuan didn’t feel anything yet, he thought that he was out and about, and he was also with her and the children, so he didn’t dare to drink much either.

He only tasted one glass and then stopped, saving the rest to take back.

Leaving the Western restaurant, they went straight to the guesthouse they had stayed at last time.

They still asked for two rooms, Zhou Jinchuan with Ye Xiaowu, and Su Yi with Ye Nuannuan.

However, they had just come back from outside, and the two children were not sleepy, they still wanted to watch TV for a while before going to bed.

Su Yi saw that Ye Nuannuan’s big eyes were already a little blurry, but because she was so happy today, she didn’t want it to end so soon, plus she saw that the guesthouse room had a new TV, she was happy to watch it.

So she smiled and turned on the television for them.

After turning on the TV, Su Yi went out to wash up. When she came back, both children had closed their eyes.

One was half-lying on the bed, the other was lying on his back on the chair.

Su Yi couldn’t help but burst out laughing, afraid of waking them up, she quickly covered her mouth.

Zhou Jinchuan had also just come back from washing up next door. Seeing this scene, he quickly carried Ye Xiaowu to the next room.

After settling Ye Xiaowu, he turned around and gently knocked on the door.

Su Yi knew it was him, so she opened the door a crack, “Aren’t you sleeping yet? We have to get up early tomorrow to go back, the kids have to go to school.”

Zhou Jinchuan glanced through the crack in the door and saw that she had let her hair down, knowing that she was ready to sleep.

He quickly looked away, coughed lightly, and said, “Alright, I’ll go back to sleep then.”

Su Yi saw that he clearly had something to say, so she opened the door, “Come in.”

Zhou Jinchuan hesitated for a moment, then raised his foot again and walked in.

Afraid of waking Nuannuan on the bed, Su Yi took him to the window, which was a distance away from the bed, and sat down. “Tell me, bringing me out to buy things, watch movies, and eat big meals, isn’t there something you need to confess?”

Her words made Zhou Jinchuan laugh, “As your partner, taking you out shopping, watching movies, and eating big meals is something I should do. Besides, you’ve been working hard lately, and you’ve lost some weight. I just wanted to take you out to relax.”

Su Yi looked at him meaningfully, “Really?”

“No.”

“Okay, I was wrong.”  While saying that, Su Yi was still a little uneasy, so she probed cautiously, “That, a month has passed, did your marriage application you submitted come back yet?”

Zhou Jinchuan paused for a moment, then said, “Not yet, but it should be soon.”

Su Yi saw that his expression was a little unnatural, so she pressed further, “If there’s anything, don’t hide it from me. Did something bad happen with the Su family and have an impact?”

Zhou Jinchuan didn’t want to hide it from her. He had indeed encountered quite a few obstacles during this time, but he had resolved them all.

Thinking that since most of it was settled, telling her would only make her worry, so he didn’t say anything.

Now that she was suspicious, he nodded slightly, “They did call and ask about the Su family, but I’ve explained everything. They are them, and you are you. We’ve already cut off all ties, it won’t have any impact.”

Hearing that he had received a call, Su Yi felt relieved.

During this time, she had been secretly worried about this issue.

However, even with her worries, it was useless, and it couldn’t change the fact that she and Zhou Jinchuan were from different backgrounds.

So no matter what the outcome, she was prepared.

Seeing her uneasy expression, Zhou Jinchuan jokingly eased the tension, “Before, it was always just me who was anxious, now finally someone is anxious with me.”

Su Yi snorted playfully, “I’m not anxious, I’m just a little puzzled why there’s no result yet. If it doesn’t get approved, I can also make other plans.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Jinchuan was clearly taken aback. “You have other plans?”

Su Yi leaned against the window, half-joking and half-serious, “If it’s not approved, I have to make other plans, right?  Am I not going to get married for the rest of my life?”

Zhou Jinchuan was immediately hit in a soft spot. He took a step towards her, approaching until he was very close, then bent down to meet her gaze. “Well, you can only marry me in this life.”

His words instantly pulled Su Yi’s heart back from its anxiety.

This was the first time Su Yi had seen Zhou Jinchuan act so domineeringly.

Those dark eyes seemed resolute in the dim light of the window.

Su Yi, who had already prepared her tough words, couldn’t say anything. She just silently looked at him.

Seeing this, Zhou Jinchuan curled his lips and gently tapped her forehead with his finger. “I promise, no matter what problems we encounter, I will deal with them. Just wait peacefully, it won’t be long.”

Su Yi awkwardly pulled the corners of her lips, muttering, “I’m really not in a hurry…”

As soon as she finished speaking, her mouth was gently sealed.

Su Yi thought of Ye Nuannuan still sleeping soundly in the room, and quickly widened her eyes in fright, making two muffled sounds pointing towards the bed.

Zhou Jinchuan understood and pulled the curtains closed.

Now they were separated from the room, but they were exposed to the outside.

Fortunately, it was already very late, and there were hardly any pedestrians on the road downstairs in the guesthouse.

Perhaps stimulated by Su Yi’s words just now, Zhou Jinchuan was exceptionally clingy tonight.

He clung to her, caressing her for a while, and then coaxed her repeatedly that he was just joking before he was willing to leave.

The next day, the sky was just beginning to lighten.

Su Yi struggled to wake Ye Nuannuan up. The little girl’s eyes were still closed as Su Yi combed her hair.

Ye Xiaowu wasn’t much better.

Seeing this, Su Yi directly asked Zhou Jinchuan to pack breakfast and planned to let the two children sleep in the car for a while.

They would eat when they were close to their destination.

On the way back, both children were fast asleep in the back.

Only Zhou Jinchuan and Su Yi were awake in the car. Perhaps because of the late night before, the atmosphere in the closed car was noticeably more ambiguous than before.

Seeing her looking down and not speaking, Zhou Jinchuan would turn his head to look at her with a smile from time to time.

Su Yi, seeing this, could only find a topic to talk about, “Is this car good to drive?”

Zhou Jinchuan smiled and said, “Want to learn?”

“Yeah, a little.”

“Then I’ll teach you starting tomorrow.”

Actually, Su Yi knew how to drive. She had a driver’s license in the modern world, but unfortunately, there was no valid reason to drive now.

Since Zhou Jinchuan was offering to teach her, she readily agreed. Maybe she would need it someday.
