Chapter 57: Continue — Do you still want to continue with me?

After Ye Zhen Zhen had showered, she went to the table and opened her luggage case.

Although she had packed lightly for the trip, her small luggage case was filled to the brim on the return trip, like a bloated fat person.

Putting away her clothes and the D City local specialities, Ye Zhen Zhen glanced worriedly at the locked case she brought back from Li Jia Jia's room.

The case was made of iron and shaped like a cube. She had found it at the very back corner of the wardrobe. Unfortunately, the case had a combination lock. She had tried several numbers, but the box wouldn't open.

She reluctantly tried her birthday again, but Ye Zhen Zhen saw that the case did not budge in the slightest.

Giving up on the battle with the case, Ye Zhen Zhen rummaged through her bag for a while and then quietly tiptoed into Ji Zhe Yan's room.

Ji Zhe Yan hadn't closed the door, so when he heard light footsteps, his lips curved into a slight smile.

"Dr. Ji!" Ye Zhen Zhen hugged him from behind, leaning her entire weight onto him. "What's this?"

Ji Zhe Yan's gaze swept over the small booklet in front of him, his smile becoming a bit forced. "You actually stole a household register?"

Ye Zhen Zhen laughed proudly and released Ji Zhe Yan. "Dr. Ji, I am someone with a household register now; we can get married!"

Ji Zhe Yan looked at her, a somewhat vexed expression on his face. "But I don't have a household register. "

Ye Zhen Zhen: "..."

With drooped eyebrows, she set the household register on the table and directly sat on Ji Zhe Yan's lap. "Dr. Ji, you said you would reward me when I return. "

Ji Zhe Yan smiled and said, "Originally, there was a reward, but now it's been rescinded. "

"Why?!" Ye Zhen Zhen looked at him with wide eyes, as if she had received a grievance as large as the sky.

"Because we still have an account to settle. " Ji Zhe Yan wrapped his arms around her waist and held her close to his chest. Ye Zhen Zhen's heart trembled. She recalled how Ji Zhe Yan had said he had something he wanted to talk with her about on the phone.

......

"So what is it?" Ye Zhen Zhen's hand pressed against Ji Zhe Yan's chest, keeping a safe distance between the two, but the arms wrapped around her waist kept her close. Ye Zhen Zhen was unable to retreat at all.

"I heard from Officer Zuo that you seem to be in marriage negotiations with others in D City?" Ji Zhe Yan's lips curved, as if he was remembering Zuo Yi telling him this in a schadenfreude tone.

Ye Zhen Zhen's heart chilled instantly. She knew Li Su had been rushing to get her married, and she had heard that Li Su had narrowed it down to one person, someone who opened a food processing plant at home. Although the scale was not large, that household was quite well-off, with enough to spare if the households joined.

But, but...she felt that she was innocent! She even suspected that she left home because of this!

She saw the smile within Ji Zhe Yan's eyes and also smiled. "Dr. Ji, this is an old matter. Furthermore, I don't know anything about it. Do you care?"

"I care very much. " Ji Zhe Yan tightened his embrace.

Feeling the strength coiled in the arms wrapped around her waist, Ye Zhen Zhen struggled to maintain her smile. "No, you're not so petty. You hadn't cared when I was previously engaged to Qin Kong, hehehe. "
