Chapter 1198: Chapter 1202: Not Even Qualified to Shine My Shoes

“Alright, stop crying, get up, Grandpa will feel bad,” Han Zuo tenderly wiped away the tears on her cheeks and helped her stand up, thoughtfully patting her knees and straightening her pant legs.

Jingxue hugged his neck and leaned into his embrace. It took a while for her emotions to calm down. Then she released him, looked up at him with a bright smile, and said, “I’m fine now, let’s go back.”

The two descended the mountain and returned to the car.

Jingxue asked him, “Should we go to my house or yours?”

Han Zuo said, “It’s up to you.”

Jingxue said, “I want to sell the villa and move somewhere else.”

Every corner of that place bore the marks of Yian the Second’s and Yian the Third’s families living there; she didn’t want to set foot in that place again.

Han Zuo said, “Then let’s stay at my place.”

“Sure!” Jingxue looped her arm through his, tilted her head, and smiled at him playfully, “Then I’ll follow wherever you go, like the saying ‘marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog.'”

Han Zuo: “…”

Was he the chicken or the dog?

This girl really was…

Alright.

He couldn’t call her “this girl” anymore; she would be his wife from now on!

His wife was really… so interesting!

Hmm.

His own wife, no matter how unreliable, must always be described with positive adjectives.

This was something he learned from the Family Head, and it was just so biased!

Halfway through the drive, Han Zuo’s phone rang.

It was an unknown number.

Han Zuo answered the phone, chatted briefly with the caller, and hung up with a much cooler expression on his face.

Jingxue curiously asked, “Something happened?”

“It’s nothing,” Han Zuo said. “It’s about Qin Wanyue’s case; the police want me to go to the station to make a statement.”

Jingxue asked, “Why do they want you to go? Didn’t Beibei’s husband have your company’s lawyer only charge her with purchasing and using illegal drugs without charging her for drugging you?”

Being drugged by a woman wasn’t something to be proud of.

Gu Junzhu didn’t want these messy affairs linked to his capable hands, so when the Gu Family sued Qin Wanyue, they pushed the few young men who tried to forcefully take Qin Wanyue away to the forefront, never mentioning Han Zuo’s name throughout.

Han Zuo explained, “It was Qin Wanyue herself who told the police. She said that we were in a relationship, and the banned drugs were for her own use, not meant to harm anyone.”

The sentencing would be vastly different between these two scenarios.

If it was for personal use, the sentence would be lighter.

If it was meant to harm someone else, the crime would be much more severe.

“She’s shameless!” Jingxue tightened her grip on Han Zuo’s arm, indignantly saying, “You are clearly mine, what relationship does she think she has with you? She’s not even worthy of cleaning my shoes, let alone worthy of you!”

Han Zuo laughed due to her teasing, and his mood, darkened by the mention of Qin Wanyue, relaxed significantly.

He wrapped his arms around Jingxue’s shoulders, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her forehead. “Right, I belong to you. All the Qin Wanyues combined aren’t as precious as a single hair on your head.”

In the past, he would occasionally hear the Family Head and Ye Xingbei say such cheesy things.

Back then, he despised it tremendously, thinking that their Family Head had no shame, sweet-talking young girls.

But when it came to his turn, he realized it wasn’t just sweet nothings.

These were words from the heart.

He didn’t have to rack his brain deliberately to think about them; believing in his heart, these words naturally surfaced in his mind and seamlessly came out of his mouth.

Jingxue immediately beamed with joy, her face sweet and radiant.

Han Zuo’s mood also settled down, the anger and resentment brought by the three words “Qin Wanyue” dissipated without trace.
