A Girl Conquers the World Through Her Tears

Chapter 13: Stunned Takasa Heng takes her to a five-star Hotel



Chapter 13

Lin Jianzhi was shocked speechless!

She suddenly remembered that this car had been here all along, parked here the whole time.

She had been so preoccupied thinking about eating dinner and buying milk tea that she hadn't looked at the license plate number.

Didn't he say he wasn't coming?

Her classmates went crazy, frantically whipping out their phones to take photos.

Class monitor Lang Shu was so anxious he yelled, "My phone is out of battery! It powered off automatically! Ahhh!"

Mu Yin: "I have battery! Make way - I'll take the photos!"

Lin Jianzhi didn't even know how she ended up sitting in the car. All she knew was that the noises around her were deafening, like ferocious floods about to drown her.

But Zhu Liheng's arms were long and he opened the car door for her...

Lin Jianzhi quickly ducked into the car, her frenzied classmates looked ready to chase after the car and run.

Zhu Liheng closed the car window and the interior finally quieted down.

Lin Jianzhi wept and tears streamed down her face. She had nearly been driven mad.

But the first thing she did was hand over her milk tea, "Zhu Liheng, do you, do you want to drink some milk tea? Wuwuwu!"

She didn't even know why she would do this. It was too embarrassing!

Her classmates' frenzied behavior must have led him to misunderstand!

Zhu Liheng glanced at her and took the milk tea, placing it in a cup holder. Then he started the car and drove back.

"I was thinking, I didn't tell you whether or not I was coming to pick you up. I was worried you would be waiting," he explained calmly.

"Mm...wuwuwu!" Lin Jianzhi was still crying.

She desperately wanted to say something, to explain clearly and respond properly.

But the more anxious she felt, the more she cried.

She really couldn't speak from crying so hard, her tears had nearly soaked through her collar.

Zhu Liheng silently handed her some tissues without making a peep.

This made Lin Jianzhi cry even harder!

By the end, she nearly had a breakdown!

"Pff-" Zhu Liheng couldn't hold back a soft laugh.

Lin Jianzhi's sobs caught in her throat. She looked at him blankly, at a loss.

Zhu Liheng turned the steering wheel. "It's nothing, please continue."

Lin Jianzhi: "Wuwuwuwu!"

She cried all the way home until she used up all the tissues in Zhu Liheng's car.

When they got out of the car and into the elevator, she apologized profusely the whole way up.

It was awful from start to finish!

As the elevator stopped on the 11th floor, tears still hung on Lin Jianzhi's face.

Zhu Liheng lifted his shirt cuff and wiped her face twice.

"You're home now, you can't keep crying," he said.

Lin Jianzhi stared at him in a daze. She had already cried herself silly, and now she was even more stunned, standing there like a wooden puppet.

Zhu Liheng used his shirt to wipe Lin Jianzhi's tears completely clean. Then he reached out and rubbed her face.

He rubbed away her wooden expression, kneading her face as if to restore some liveliness.

After doing all this, he took Lin Jianzhi's hand and pressed her fingers to the fingerprint scanner on the door.

Lin Jianzhi clearly felt Zhu Liheng's scorching breath right above her head.

His chest was less than a fist's width behind her back.

Click!

The door opened accordingly.

Lin's Mother's delighted voice immediately rang out from inside, "You're back? Oh! Little Zhu happens to be here too! Quick quick, dinner is ready!"

Zhu Liheng walked in calmly as always, "Thank you, Auntie."

Lin's Father came out to greet them, "What's there to thank! We should be thanking you! Little Jian go wash your hands and serve some food for little teacher Zhu!"

Lin Jianzhi felt as if she were a programmed robot, mechanically executing commands.

That scene at the door of her home just now had stunned her senseless!

Could Zhu Liheng be...

Lin Jianzhi didn't dare think further. She quietly ate dinner, afraid her parents would notice something off about her.

Yet Zhu Liheng chatted casually with her parents, discussing current events and professional topics - it seemed there was nothing he didn't know.

After dinner.

Her delighted parents quickly ushered her out the door, telling her to study well.

Click!

The door closed and it was just her and Zhu Liheng alone in the elevator again.

Lin Jianzhi blushed once more, her head almost dropping to her chest.

She discovered the light in front of her eyes gradually darkening as Zhu Liheng leaned in.

Lin Jianzhi felt as if she were nearly suffocating from lack of oxygen!

Zhu Liheng's voice sounded from above her head, calm as ever: "The milk tea was pretty tasty."

Lin Jianzhi: "!!!"

Zhu Liheng: "Get in the elevator."

Lin Jianzhi practically fled into the elevator as if escaping for her life. She completely didn't dare lift her head to look at him.

Zhu Liheng watched her the whole time as he followed her inside.

With Lin Jianzhi's mind full of that clean scent and the warmth of his breath, she didn't even notice the floor lighting up on the elevator panel showed the basement parking garage.

When she saw the parking lot ahead, along with the Audi A6.

Lin Jianzhi's mind couldn't comprehend it.

Weren't they having tutoring lessons?

Zhu Liheng opened the car door, "Get in."

Lin Jianzhi crawled into the passenger seat. Finally, she managed to utter a complete sentence: "Where are we going?"

Zhu Liheng's good-looking hands turned the steering wheel. "Practice spoken English and psychological resilience."

Lin Jianzhi: "Huh???"

The car exited the housing complex all the way towards downtown.

Ever since Lin Jianzhi entered intense third year preparations for exams, she had been busy studying and reviewing for tests every day for a whole year without coming here.

Now taking another look, she suddenly discovered how prosperous her hometown was.

Despite not being a big city, it was packed with cars and towering buildings.

At 7 PM on a summer night, daylight in front of Lin Jianzhi's eyes gradually shifted to darkness.

One by one, the streetlights lit up along both sides of the roads with a warm, dreamy aura.

She secretly glanced from the corner of her eyes at Zhu Liheng next to her, only to meet his gaze as he happened to turn his head to look over.

Lin Jianzhi hurriedly jerked her head back around with the little deer in her chest galloping wildly.

What she didn't know was that Zhu Liheng had merely been checking his rearview mirror. But her exaggerated reaction and response happened to catch his eye.

The girl's side profile without any makeup had flushed red cheeks and red all the way to the tips of her ears.

Soon after, the car pulled into a 5-star hotel parking lot.

Lin Jianzhi wasn't completely ignorant. At this moment, her mind was nearly going crazy!

Zhu Liheng, could he be...

She felt nervous and scared, yet also uncontrollably a tiny bit expectant.

If, what if, assuming...

It really was what she thought, then what should she do?

Her birth month meant she was already an adult, so perhaps it would be okay?

Lin Jianzhi felt extremely ashamed with a face red enough to drip blood, biting her lower lip.

When the parking lot lights shone on her, it made her current appearance seem slightly coquettish.

Zhu Liheng parked the car and happened to turn to look at her, stunned for a moment at the scene.

Lin Jianzhi shakily opened the car door and got out.

Zhu Liheng blinked and locked the car, leading her into the hotel.

Lin Jianzhi didn't dare speak or look around at people for the entire walk in.

She had forgotten to wear a face mask and cap! What if someone saw her?

What should she do?

Zhu Liheng brought her through the grand hotel lobby, walking straight towards the elevators with familiar ease: "A class reunion with my university classmates."

Lin Jianzhi abruptly lifted her head: "Huh???"

There seemed to be a vague smile on Zhu Liheng's expression: "A University classmates reunion. Can't consider them classmates, but seniors and juniors from the same research lab. They just happen to have a research project in Jingyi City and are upstairs eating dinner."

Lin Jianzhi nodded blankly. "Oh, I see, like that ah."

Zhu Liheng: "Bringing you to meet A University's pride and joy."

Lin Jianzhi continued to react blankly: "Oh, okay."
