Feast for Shengsheng

Chapter 749 Worrying about gains and losses

Wen Ning glanced in Zhou Yi's direction from the corner of his eye.

Zhou Yi was talking on the phone.

But unlike usual, Zhou Yi looks particularly gentle like this.

Even when pronouncing words, they were whispering to each other, mixing English and Chinese.

It was just that the surroundings were so noisy that Wen Ning couldn't hear clearly.

Wen Ning vaguely heard the word "honey".

Wen Ning froze.

This was indeed the first time Wen Ning had seen Zhou Yi like this.

Zhou Yi usually treats Wen Ning very well, with a playful smile on his face.

Just as gentle.

But there is no such deep tenderness.

It can make everyone around him feel that Zhou Yi cares about the other person.

"Be obedient and stop making trouble." Zhou Yi was still coaxing.

"If you want to come to Boston, come on, I'll arrange a hotel for you." Zhou Yi responded.

It seemed like the person on the other end of the phone was coming to Boston.

Wen Ning didn't quite understand the rest of the words.

She just sat quietly in her seat, and the hot pot in front of her became tasteless.

Zhou Yi had finished his call and returned to his seat.

He glanced at Wen Ning and asked, "Why aren't you eating anymore?"

Wen Ning uttered an "oh," "I'm full."

Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows, clearly showing his disbelief.

Wen Ning has a good appetite, unlike those girls who are picky about food for the sake of their status.

Wen Ning had a slightly chubby, baby-fat face, which Zhou Yi found very comfortable to pinch.

The food in front of him was almost untouched.

"Feeling uncomfortable?" Zhou Yi asked directly.

"Maybe it's my period." Wen Ning made up an excuse.

Zhou Yi looked at Wen Ning calmly, but did not expose Wen Ning's lie.

After all, Zhou Yi knew better than anyone when Wen Ning would have her period.

But Zhou Yi wouldn't say anything.

"Eat a little more, you've eaten too little. If you don't eat well during your period, you'll feel uncomfortable at night." Zhou Yi said lightly.

He was coaxing Wen Ning.

Wen Ning couldn't resist Zhou Yi's coaxing, so he lowered his head and ate in small bites.

Zhou Yi didn't say anything until he finished eating everything Zhou Yi gave him.

But the conversations between the two became rare.

After Zhou Yi finished eating, he stood up to pay the bill and drove back with Wen Ning.

While waiting for the traffic light, Zhou Yi looked at Wen Ning.

"What did you want to tell me in the store before?" Zhou Yi suddenly mentioned what Wen Ning had said in the store.

"I forgot. It's probably not something important." Wen Ning responded calmly.

Zhou Yi looked at Wen Ning, who remained silent, "I really forgot. I'll tell you when I remember."

Zhou Yi then nodded.

Wen Ning didn't say anything, just lowered his head and looked at his phone.

"What are you looking at?" Zhou Yi seemed to be addicted to chatting with Wen Ning.

"Nothing, just checking emails and confirming homework." Wen Ning responded.

"Are you ready for the exam?" Zhou Yi asked Wen Ning.

"That's almost it."

"Which university do you want to apply to?"

“I want to go to Los Angeles to study.”

Wen Ning hesitated for a moment before quietly speaking his thoughts.

Her grades were not bad enough to get her into universities in Boston and New York, so Wen Ning should have applied to schools here as well.

After all, Zhou Yi is here.

But this anxiety, coupled with the phone call tonight, made Wen Ning suddenly decide to go ahead with it.

She wanted to stay away from Zhou Yi, otherwise it would be too dangerous.

Zhou Yi frowned, he never expected Wen Ning to make such a decision.

"The reason? There are so many good universities in Boston and New York, there's no need to go to Los Angeles." Zhou Yi said directly.

One in the East Coast of the United States, and one in the West Coast of the United States.

The flight takes six or seven hours, which is too troublesome.

Moreover, Zhou Yi's work focus is in New York, so it is impossible for him to go to Los Angeles.

"I don't have the ability to go to places like Harvard and Stanford. I don't really want to go to Columbia, so I want to go to Los Angeles." Wen Ning found a simple reason, which was also reasonable.

"I'll handle these things." Zhou Yi was direct.

"I've already troubled you enough, so I don't want to go to university, and I still need you to help me deal with it like this." Wen Ning responded.

Then Wen Ning seemed to muster up his courage and just looked at Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi had already started the engine and was driving back towards the villa.

"I want to go to Los Angeles by myself so I can learn to be independent. When I'm with you, I always feel like I'm being taken care of."

"I have no worries about food and clothing, and I don't need to worry about anything. I'm afraid that one day, I will be too obsessed with gains and losses and really lose the ability to live."

"I never lived this kind of life before, and now I don't want to fall into this kind of life and keep struggling."

Wen Ning's words were half true and half false.

It's not a lie.

But there was a deeper reason, which was to avoid Zhou Yi immediately.

Wen Ning was afraid that he would fall into Zhou Yi's tenderness and eventually become completely unable to struggle.

Zhou Yi was just listening, his bony hands gripping the steering wheel, not knowing what he was thinking.

Wen Ning didn't dare to speak. He lowered his head and became quiet.

"Are you trying to draw a line between you and me?" Zhou Yi responded.

When he opened his mouth, the car had already parked in the villa's garage.

The environment inside the car becomes quieter.

"No..." Wen Ning denied it, but he felt a little guilty.

Zhou Yi just looked at Wen Ning and said, "Wen Ning, have you forgotten our original agreement?"

This one sentence suddenly made Wen Ning's nerves tense.

"My job is in New York. If you go to Los Angeles, I can't go to Los Angeles, understand? I won't allow you to stay too far away from me either."

Zhou Yi made his words clear.

Zhou Yi was such a smart man, how could he not know that Wen Ning wanted to avoid him.

As for the reason, Zhou Yi lowered his brows.

"Also, you're lying. Huh?" Zhou Yi said bluntly.

Zhou Yi looked at Wen Ning sharply.

"When you lie, your ears turn red," Zhou Yi said bluntly. "So, Wen Ning, why did you go to Los Angeles?"

Wen Ning was so confused by Zhou Yi that he couldn't answer.

Zhou Yi's expression gradually darkened: "Because of Sammy?"

This sentence made Wen Ning stunned for a moment, but Zhou Yi saw panic in his stunned eyes.

"He's going to study in Los Angeles because his whole family moved there. You have a good relationship with him, so do you want to go too?" Zhou Yi asked directly.

"You like him?" Zhou Yi's tone became aggressive.

Zhou Yi doesn't usually care about Wen Ning, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know everything Wen Ning does.

Wen Ning is not a beautiful girl, but she is very likable.

There are many boys in high school who like Wen Ning.

But there are only a handful of people who have a good relationship with Wen Ning, and this person happens to be one of them.

Zhou Yi didn't take the other party too seriously, and intuitively thought that he could not pose any threat to him.

He also didn't want to control Wen Ning too strictly and make Wen Ning feel resistant to him.

And now, Wen Ning is actually applying to a school in Los Angeles?

Does this mean you're leaving him?
