And thus, Zhai Zhongshen ended up driving Long Yuetian home.
This time around, Long Yuetian felt even more nervous.
“Do you feel unwell?” Zhai Zhongshen asked.
“No, I’m alright,” Long Yuetian replied. She wasn’t unwell. Rather, she just felt unfortable sitting in his passenger seat.
“Do you like younger guys?” Zhai Zhongshen asked. His voice was smooth and no emotion could be heard.
!!
“What? When did I say that?” Long Yuetian questioned. In her mind, she hadn’t laid her hands on someone younger than herself for many years.
Zhai Zhongshen did not reply. He seemed focused on driving.
Long Yuetian did not understand the intention behind Zhai Zhongshen’s question.
As she glanced at his face, somehow, she managed to bee even more nervous than before.
Unlike last time, Zhai Zhongshen planned to send Long Yuetian into her apartment.
“You… Don’t need to do this.”
“Are you not used to it?” the Second Master of the Zhai family asked.
“Yeah, I’m not used to it,” Long Yuetian replied.
“Well, you should get used to it.”
That was indeed true. After all, Long Yuetian was potentially entering a marriage of convenience with Zhai Zhongshen. This meant they would constantly be hanging out together in the future.
“I… I will try to get used to it,” Long Yuetian answered. She pushed down the uneasiness and disfort in her heart and invited him into her apartment.
“Are you not going to invite me to take a seat?”
Since he was here already, it was impolite to directly tell them to leave.
Long Yuetian stiffened as she invited the Second Master of the Zhai family to take a seat. Then, she poured a cup of tea for Zhai Zhongshen.
“Since you have to drive home, I won’t pour you a glass of wine.”
“Mhmm,” Zhai Zhongshen replied as he sipped the cup of tea.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Long Yuetian was incredibly anxious. For some reason, she felt like he was drinking the tea very slowly.
Why was he not leaving? Did he want something else from her?
Certain images ran through Long Yuetian’s mind.
If he wanted to do those things with her, should she resist or ply?
Could she even resist?
As she kept fighting her own thoughts, Zhai Zhongshen suddenly stood up.
Then, he walked out of the apartment.
Upon seeing this, Long Yuetian let out a big sigh of relief. At the same time, for some reason, she felt somewhat disappointed.

On the weekend, everyone set out to go rock climbing.
This rock climbing site was suited for experienced rock climbers.
The rock climbing site was located near beautiful scenery. There was a waterfall nearby and several flower fields.
Tents could be pitched up next to the flower fields.
Long Yuetian, Cheng Yi, and Jian Yiheng were the first group to begin climbing.
Jian Yiheng easily took the lead. He managed to climb to the top when the others were only halfway up.
Although Cheng Yi also liked rock climbing, he was far weaker than Jian Yiheng in terms of physical strength.
Long Yuetian’s rock climbing abilities were on par with Cheng Yi’s.
Zhai Zhongshen was seated in a rattan chair beside the tents. His eyes were fixated on the group who were rock climbing.
Initially, everyone assumed he would also climb today. However, it seemed like he was only interested in watching the action from below.
After a round of climbing, Long Yuetian was sweating profusely. When she returned to the tents, Jian Yiling handed her a towel.
“Thanks darling,” Long Yuetian said.
After Long Yuetian wiped her sweat, Jian Yiling handed her a slice of freshly cut fruit.
“I love you so much,” Long Yuetian exclaimed as she kissed Jian Yiling on the cheek. After all, Zhai Yunsheng was not here to stop her.
