Chapter 796: Chapter 795: See You Tomorrow
Liu Zheng said, "You should go back and rest first! See you tomorrow!"
"Okay!"
After Song Yuhan left, Liu Zheng kept staring in the direction she had gone, his eyes somewhat hazy.
His gaze was gentle, as if he were looking at something he dearly loved.
"Is it really you?"
"How did... how did you become like this? Could it be that over these years..."
Liu Zheng’s face turned a bit pale, he slowly stood up, and walked back to his bedroom.
He opened the drawer of the bedside table and took out an old, yellowed photograph. Looking closely, the man in the photo looked very similar to Liu Zheng.
"Are we... are we biological brothers?" Liu Zheng trembled, tracing the contours of the man in the photo with his fingers.
"Why... why is it like this..."
"Brother... you’re still alive... that’s good... that’s good..."
"Why? Why did they leave you behind? Why did they abandon our mother and the two of us? Why..."
"Sob... sob..."
Liu Zheng covered his face and started sobbing, as if to vent the deep anguish in his heart.
He couldn’t believe they were biological brothers! It was unimaginable to him!
"Why did you come back? If only you had come back sooner, then... then... we wouldn’t have had to be apart for so many years... What about mom... What about me... Sob..."
...
The next day, the sun shone brightly, and Song Yuhan got up early, washed up, and when she came to the living room, Liu Zheng was already neatly dressed and eating breakfast at the dining table.
Liu Zheng looked up at Song Yuhan and said, "How about we have lunch together today?"
"Uh, sure!" Song Yuhan responded with a smile.
"Yuhan, how have you been feeling lately?" Liu Zheng asked with concern.
"I’ve been quite well! Why do you ask?"
"Nothing."
"What do you plan to do this afternoon?"
"After lunch, I plan to swing by the office."
"Why are you going to the office instead of spending time with us?"
"I have an important task at the office," Liu Zheng said mysteriously, "Don’t worry, Yuhan, I definitely won’t leave you guys behind."
"Oh! I see!"
"Then let’s head out! I’ll treat you to a French meal!"
"Wow!" Song Yuhan exclaimed excitedly, "You’re treating? Then I won’t hold back! Make sure you charge me well!"
"Sure! Don’t worry about it, just enjoy the meal!" Liu Zheng said, smiling.
"Great!" Song Yuhan clapped her hands and said, "Today, I’m going to have a French steak for dinner, and then... a bowl of ramen!"
"Ramen? What’s that?"
"It’s ramen!"
"Oh!" Liu Zheng nodded, saying, "Alright! I’ll reluctantly accept the invitation! After all, I’m not short of money!"
After finishing the meal, Song Yuhan cleaned up the dishes, and then she walked with Liu Zheng to the parking garage.
When she got into the driver’s seat, she glanced at Liu Zheng beside her and couldn’t help asking, "Didn’t you say you were going to drive me?"
"Oh, I forgot, I drank too much last night, so I didn’t drive!" Liu Zheng scratched his head and said with a laugh, "You’re not mad at me, right?"
"Haha! No, not mad!"
"Then just wait a moment! I’ll switch cars and then take you!"
...
Soon, a red Porsche sports car pulled up in front of Song Yuhan.
After Song Yuhan got in, Liu Zheng started the car and drove out of the residential area.
"This is my second time riding in your car," Song Yuhan remarked as she looked out the window. "The first time was right in front of my house."
"Hehe! It’s also my second time driving a girl! I think, it must be because of the good karma from a past life!"
"You’re right."
"Now that you’re my girlfriend, shouldn’t there be a reward?"
"What kind of reward do you want?"
"Maybe a kiss? Or a hug?" Liu Zheng blinked his beautiful phoenix eyes, looking at her expectantly.
Song Yuhan laughed and waved her hands in refusal, "No, no! I don’t want the neighbors to misunderstand our relationship, so let’s not!"
"Ah! Then I can only wish you luck in finding your other half someday!" Liu Zheng said with a look of regret.
Song Yuhan couldn’t help but smile and said, "I’ll try my best. I hope I really can meet someone like that."
"Hahaha... You definitely will," Liu Zheng replied.
"Thank you."
"I also wish you happiness."
...
"By the way, do you know where Liu Zheng’s parents are?" Song Yuhan suddenly asked.
"Him? I’m not sure," Liu Zheng answered.
"Not sure? How can you not be sure?"
"Because I’ve never met them. I’ve only heard some things about them, but they weren’t very specific."
"I see," Song Yuhan responded.
"Yu Han, don’t worry. Even though I don’t know where Liu Zheng’s parents are, I can help investigate if you want to find them. It might be easier for me."
"Okay! Then I’ll trouble you with that. But, please don’t tell mom and dad, or they’ll definitely blame me!" Song Yuhan instructed.
"Don’t worry! I’ll keep it a secret for you. But are you sure you can find them?"
"I... I’ll try!"
"Then let’s wait and see."
"Mmm!"
The two continued chatting for a while, and then the train car quieted down.
Song Yuhan leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes to rest.
Suddenly, a familiar figure caught her eye.
"Stop the car!" Song Yuhan called out loudly.
Liu Zheng immediately hit the brakes and steadied the car at the roadside.
Song Yuhan pushed the door open and walked towards the person.
"Sis, are you going out?" Song Hao asked puzzledly.
"Why are you here?" Song Yuhan asked, "You wouldn’t be following me, would you?"
"Sis, don’t overthink it. I wasn’t following you! I was here to meet a classmate, and then I decided to come find you for lunch."
"Really?" Song Yuhan looked at him suspiciously.
"Really!" Song Hao earnestly said, "I’m telling the truth!"
"Since you have friends here, I won’t disturb you," Song Yuhan smiled, "I’ll go buy some takeout for you to eat. Just wait here!"
"Okay then!" Song Hao nodded and watched as Song Yuhan walked away.
He turned to head upstairs, but suddenly, his steps halted, his sharp eyes intensely fixed on Song Yuhan’s retreating figure.
Is that her?
He couldn’t be mistaken, could he?
Song Hao’s brows furrowed, and his expression turned serious.
This was the first time he had seen her since they had parted ways.
He hadn’t expected her to have become so attractive and to possess such a beautiful appearance.
If it weren’t for the fact that she was already taken and that he had no interest in her, he would have definitely fallen for her.
But she was already spoken for, which disappointed him.
He was quite the businessman, and if he fancied someone, he naturally had ways to win her over.
Yet, if this was her choice, he would respect it and not disrupt her life.
After all, loving someone isn’t about possession.
Song Hao turned around and headed towards the elevator, then entered it and pressed the button for the top floor.
...
Song Yuhan reached the supermarket on the first floor, grabbed a couple of bags, and then hurried to the parked car.
She fumbled in her bag for her keys and was about to insert them into the lock when suddenly a pair of slender hands reached over and snatched her keys.
Song Yuhan paused for a moment then looked up to see Liu Zheng standing in front of her.
"What... what are you doing?"
"I’ll give you a ride home. It’s on the way, and I was just about to meet a friend. This way, you won’t have to wait for a ride and waste time."
"No need! I’ll just take public transport," Song Yuhan said.
"Don’t refuse, I’ve already agreed to your conditions. Or are you trying to drive me away?" Liu Zheng looked at her with a sad expression.
Song Yuhan: "..."
"Fine then! But we’ll still go Dutch."
"Of course!"
