An Exclusive love

Chapter 456 - I Like You!

When they returned to the ward, the doctor was dealing with Zhou Yiyun’s wound.

“Miss Zhou, you will be certainly scarred in the future. Would you like me to introduce a surgeon to you?”

Beside them, Scar said gruffly, “No. I’ll arrange everything.”

The doctor had been scared almost to death by the man who was releasing the cold and dark air. After hearing that, he nodded immediately. “That’s okay. Remember to change the dressings every day. Aside from your arms, your face needs more care.”

“Yiyun.” Chen Chen held her with red eyes. “You can rest assured that I will make medicine for you, and that I won’t allow you to be scarred!”

After experiencing such a dangerous situation, Zhou Yiyun was very weak at the moment, yet she tried hard to give Chen Chen a smile. “It’s okay. Anyway, the plastic surgery is so developed now that the scar can be removed.”

“You… You…” Chen Chen cried too hard to say anything.

Jiang Rui took her into his arms. “Well, she needs to rest. Let’s go back first, and come here tomorrow!”

After finishing his words, he looked up at Zhou Yiyun. “Thank you, I owe a life to you.”

“Chen Chen is my friend.” Zhou Yiyun said lightly.

Before leaving, Jiang Rui had a talk with Scar at the door. On the way home, Chen Chen kept asking if he planned to bring Scar with Zhou Yiyun together. Jiang Rui had no way but to glance at her and ask,

“Don’t you have a headache?”

Chen Chen felt strange and touched her head. “No, I don’t! What’s wrong?”

“Didn’t you say you were hit?” Jiang Rui touched her head. “I should have asked that doctor to run a check-up for you just now, in case of any sequels.”

After hearing Jiang Rui’s words, Chen Chen remembered that Tang Yue had hit her head. The moment that she thought about it, she immediately felt dizzy.

“It hurts!” She held her head.

Jiang Rui looked at her with amusement. “Well, go to sleep for a while!”

Chen Chen agreed and reclined the back of her seat. Originally, she thought that she would be unable to fall asleep, but she became sleepy as the car moved forwards.

When she woke up again, Tuan Zi was lying on the pillow and staring at her.

“Mom, does it hurt?” She touched Chen Chen’s face.

Jiang Rui was afraid that Chen Chen would rub against the wound, and asked the doctor to place a piece of gauze on her face.

“No.” Chen Chen pinched her daughter’s face and found that Tuan Zi seemed to have grown taller. No wonder Xie Hong told her in the phone that Wen Zeyu was playing basketball every day and then measuring his height, for fear that he was shorter than Tuan Zi.

“Woof woof!” Hei Zi stood up on its hind feet.

Tuan Zi nodded. “Yes, we mustn’t be as forgetful as Mom.”

Hei Zi: “Woof!”

Tuan Zi: “Of course. I’m so smart!”

“Don’t whisper in front of me.” Chen Chen was driven crazy, pointing at the dog’s head. “Is it despising me again?”

Tuan Zi lied with a straight face. “No. Hei Zi said that Mom was still very pretty with the gauze on your face!”

“Really?” Chen Chen didn’t believe it.

Hei Zi: “Woof!”

Chen Chen withdrew her hand and said, “Stop licking my hand. It’s useless.”

Anyway, she wouldn’t believe what Tuan Zi and Hei Zi had said. Those two guys were very mean, just like Hei Zi’s owner!

“Dad didn’t leave until he finished making lunch. It will cool if you don’t hurry to get up.” Tuan Zi handed her pajamas. “Wen Zeyu will come to pick me up later, and we will be learning how to swim in the Children’s Palace.

Chen Chen got dressed and ran to the bathroom to brush her teeth. “I’ll go to the hospital to see your Aunt Yiyun!”

“Don’t forget to take the hairpins my grandma made,” Tuan Zi reminded her.

Chen Chen waved her hand and nodded perfunctorily. “I get it!”

At the hospital.

Zhou Yiyun failed to respond quickly after hearing Scar’s words.

“Will you,” Scar asked again, “be my girlfriend?”

“Well, Scar, you don’t need to do this…” Zhou Yiyun smiled bitterly. “You know, I was injured for the sake of Chen Chen. She’s my friend, and you don’t need to blame yourself. Besides, my face will be okay after the plastic surgery.

Seeing Scar persistently looking at her, Zhou Yiyun sighed. “I’m a star who earns a living with my face, so this face is my life. I knew what I was doing at that moment. I’m not a fool. How could I leave a scar on my face?”

“It has nothing to do with your face.” Scar glanced at her. “Didn’t you say that you would express your love in the afterlife? You don’t need to wait till then.”

Zhou Yiyun blushed and said, “At… At that moment, I thought I was going to die. You know, what people say when they’re about to die counts for nothing. I couldn’t think straight then.”

“A man speaks from his heart when death is near.” Scar looked at her. “When you’re dying, the words you say are true.”

Seeing him being so persistent, Zhou Yiyun’s patience began to wear out. “Scar, I said it had nothing to do with you, and I don’t need you to be responsible for me.” Before Scar opened his mouth, she continued, “Do you think that no one will marry me?”

“Or do you think I should be grateful to you for your sympathy?”

Scar pounded heavily on the bed, which startled Zhou Yiyun.

“No sympathy.” The man lowered his head. “I… I like you.”

Zhou Yiyun blurted out a sentence. “Liar. You like strong women!”

“How do you know?” Scar glared at her.

“Chen… Chen Chen told me.” Zhou Yiyun grabbed the quilt. “I dare not even kill a chicken.”

Scar held her hand immediately. “No, you have a strong will.”

Zhou Yiyun could clearly see herself in his bright eyes.

“You don’t know how brave you were when your face was cut with the knife to save Mrs. Jiang, and when you climbed up the stone platform and decided to jump down.” Scar got excited. “I have never seen you being so beautiful!”

Zhou Yiyun had heard a lot of sweet words in her life. Those silver-spoon men even described her as a fairy when they went after her. Besides, as she had just stepped into the entertainment circle, she had slept with several men who called her baby during sex.

But Zhou Yiyun was never touched, because she knew that those men only loved her face and her body.

Obviously at that time, she looked terrible with a bloody face, and she could definitely not be considered a beauty.

But Scar’s praise made her eyes turn red, so that she unconsciously burst into tears.

“Don’t cry!” Scar was anxious. “What I said is true.”

Zhou Yiyun was crying even harder, and Scar covered the gauze on her face with his hand. “You can’t cry, or the tears will aggravate the wound.”

“I wouldn’t have cried if you didn’t tell me these things, don’t you think?” Zhou Yiyun didn’t realize that she was acting like a spoiled girl before Scar.

“OK. OK.” Scar said quickly, “I won’t say it anymore.”

Zhou Yiyun was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, when she heard him say, “I won’t say it until you recover!”

“You…”

Scar made a gesture of surrender. “Yiyun, I’m asking you if you want to be my girlfriend, which means that I’m telling you that I want to go after you! You don’t need to reply to me now. I’m a soldier, and I will definitely keep my word. Wait and see!”

Zhou Yiyun still wanted to say something else, but suddenly opened her eyes widely. Seeing her look, Scar quickly looked back. Chen Chen was popping her head inside and grinning at him!

“Just say what you want. Don’t laugh.” Zhou Yiyun handed a glass of water to Chen Chen. “Or you will get a side stitch.”

Chen Chen took the glass and took a sip. “Haha! I heard everything you said!”

“What did you hear?” Zhou Yiyun took the cup and placed it beside her mouth.

“Okay!” Chen Chen glanced at the door. She could bet that Scar had to be overhearing them, or she would not eat meat for a week.

Zhou Yiyun stared at her for a long time without saying a word.

Chen Chen embarrassedly said, “Okay, okay! I won’t talk nonsense. What do you think?”

“You didn’t know if Scar liked you, but now he has expressed his love. How do you feel?”

Zhou Yiyun said lightly, “I still think that we don’t belong to the same world. We’re not the right match for each other.”

Chen Chen asked indignantly, “Not right? Not belonging to the same world? One person and one ghost?”

“Haha!” Zhou Yiyun was amused, almost tearing the wound on her face. She quickly closed her mouth and said, “You know what I mean.”

“I don’t know.” Chen Chen said angrily, “You just think of him as a soldier! Now it’s difficult for soldiers to have a girlfriend. The ones to choose are the girls.”

After hearing that, Zhou Yiyun wanted to roll her eyes. “Is Scar an ordinary soldier?”

But Chen Chen seemed to be very stubborn, nagging her to consider Scar. Later, Zhou Yiyun had no choice but to build up her courage to tell Chen Chen.

“Chen Chen, do you know about my past?”

She looked so serious that Chen Chen didn’t dare to make a joke and shook her head in earnest.

“I came to Beijing from the countryside at the age of 17, and worked in a restaurant.” Zhou Yiyun looked up with empty eyes, as if seeing the innocent and pure girl years back.

She had been spotted by a scout and joined an entertainment company. At that time, she naively thought that she could be a star. After half a year of hard training, her first job was to attend a charity ball.

At the ball, her so-called agent kept urging her to drink and then placed her on a director’s bed.

At that night, the eighteen-year-old girl learned about humanity and the harsh reality. She managed to get a supporting role and made a hit by her own effort.

After that, she began to be targeted by celebrities and the rich. Zhou Yiyun knew that she had no ability to protect herself. So she chose the most suitable one, an overseas Chinese who had returned to China and made investments; he also had a strong background.

After being his lover for two years, she had obtained the award of “Best Actress” and stood at the top of the entertainment circle. However, the overseas Chinese left the country because of health reasons and asked her if she wanted to leave with him. Zhou Yiyun refused, because she had spent a lot of effort to stand at the top, but she had not fully enjoyed the dazzling circle.

After that, Zhou Yiyun didn’t have any men. She had learned to skillfully cope with those men who wanted to sleep with her and to protect herself from harm.

“Later, I met Chief Jiang.” Zhou Yiyun breathed a long sigh of relief. If she had any other alternative, she wouldn’t have chosen to touch the bitterly painful past in her memory.

Chen Chen looked mournful. “It wasn’t the first time you met him at the restaurant on the hilltop.”

“Yes.” Zhou Yiyun knew that she was talking about Jiang Rui, and nodded. “I first met Chief Jiang on the bed in a hotel…”
