Chapter 1441

1441 Marry Me (1)

“A Sheng said you won’t interfere with Uncle Zhai’s work. He said Uncle Zhai can work and protect you simultaneously.”

Jian Yiling informed Long Yuetian what Zhai Yunsheng said to her.

As Zhai Zhongshen was standing next to Long Yuetian, he said to Jian Yiling: “Don’t worry Yiling. Just take care of yourself. I will manage the situation here.”

This meant he promised to protect Long Yuetian.

“Thank you, Uncle Zhai,” Jian Yiling replied meekly.

As she said this, her son waved his chubby arms. Little Zeze was super adorable.

As Zhai Zhongshen looked at his grandson, the look on his face softened a lot.

“Just take care of yourself and your baby. Don’t worry about what’s happening here. I will manage the situation,” Zhai Zhongshen repeated.

Then, Zhai Yunsheng came over and said: “Uncle, we still have things to do. We will head off for now.”

After saying this, he helped Jian Yiling hang up the call.

Long Yuetian’s hospital ward suddenly returned to silence.

It was so quiet that Long Yuetian could almost hear Zhai Zhongshen’s breathing.

As Long Yuetian recalled Jian Yiling’s words, she realized she would be spending a lot of time with Zhai Zhongshen in the coming days. This made her feel somewhat uneasy.

After battling with her thoughts, Long Yuetian summoned up her courage and said: “Second Master of the Zhai family, you don’t need to force yourself to help me. I can take care of myself. You don’t have to protect me.”

As she said this, Long Yuetian cautiously looked at Zhai Zhongshen. His eyes were incredibly sharp and looking at them made her feel inexplicably nervous.

Zhai Zhongshen did not answer immediately. Instead, he stared at Long Yuetian for quite some time.

His lack of response made Long Yuetian feel so nervous that she began to struggle to breathe.

“I’m not a shameless bastard,” Zhai Zhongshen finally said.

“What?” Long Yuetian replied in confusion. She did not understand what he was saying.

“I’m not a shameless bastard. I will only touch a woman who I’ve set my eyes on,” Zhai Zhongshen explained.

Upon hearing this, a bewildered and dumbfounded expression appeared on Long Yuetian’s place. “You mean... You’ve set your eyes on me?”

As Long Yuetian said this, she pointed a finger at her face in confusion and disbelief.

“Yes.”

“But why? We’ve only been on a blind date a few times... Is it because Yiling and I are friends? Or is it because...”

“You said you would marry me when you were a child.”

“Huh?”

When she was a child?

She said she’d marry him?

What the hell?!

Long Yuetian did not recall saying such a thing.

However, Zhai Zhongshen did not explain the matter. Instead, he told Long Yuetian to get some rest as she was probably incredibly tired after the series of events today.

Long Yuetian initially wanted to think about Zhai Zhongshen’s last few sentences. However, she quickly fell asleep.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn.

Her father barged into Long Yuetian’s hospital ward.

When he saw his daughter lying on the hospital bed, he angrily exclaimed: “Which bastard did this?! I will cut him into pieces!”

“Father, it’s alright. The Second Master of the Zhai family will take care of this matter,” Long Yuetian answered. She didn’t want her father to know that this matter was related to Jian Yiling. After all, she didn’t want him to blame Jian Yiling for her kidnapping.

“The Second Master of the Zhai family? He saved you right?”

“Mhmm.”

“Yuetian, this is a serious matter. In ancient times, if someone saves your life, you have to marry them! As the Long family has always been righteous, we can’t owe someone a favor and not return it. Apparently, the Second Master of the Zhai family is still single. How about you...”
