Chapter 169

169. Haunted?“You have to listen to my explanation!!!”

Faced with the questioning, Su Zeheng finally raised his hands in panic.

“Let me explain! You vomited all over me last night, and I didn’t have clothes, so I could only wear this! I didn’t touch you! Absolutely not!!!!”

“Really?”

Wen Han glanced at her body, which she had already checked, and her cold expression turned into one of doubt.

“What… were you doing at my house?”

“I stayed because I was worried about you; I was just making breakfast.”

“Breakfast?”

“Yes, I asked Little Yuan to eat first and then sent her to kindergarten.” Su Zeheng sighed. “By the way, are you feeling okay now?”

“I’m feeling terrible…” Wen Han pouted like a spoiled child, pulling her fallen strap back up.

“Then don’t drink so much alcohol in the future.” Seeing her calm down, Su Zeheng smiled and moved closer. “Now, let’s eat. You should take your stomach medicine and hangover cure later.”

“Eh?” Wen Han frowned immediately. “Since when do I have hangover cure at home?”

“I bought it last night, but you were already asleep.”

“Oh…”

As if touched, Wen Han pouted slightly, but her face remained hard.

Su Zeheng saw all this and couldn’t help but smile gently. “Come on, get up and eat.”

“Ugh! Are you treating me like a child?” Wen Han snapped instantly. “Uncle, you don’t think that just because you’re nice to me, I’ll fall in love with you, do you?”

“No!”

“Hmph! You definitely do!” Wen Han stood up and hurriedly pushed past him toward the kitchen.

“This witch…”

Su Zeheng turned to look at her disappearing figure, revealing a bitter smile.

…

“Oh? Milk and sandwiches.”

As soon as Wen Han entered the kitchen, she saw the breakfast on the table.

She froze, intentionally remaining still, standing in place dumbfounded.

Uncle, are you coming or not? I’m so tired of waiting!

Her peripheral vision scanned until she saw his figure approach, and her heart lifted.

Meanwhile,

“Mm?”

As Su Zeheng walked through the living room and entered the kitchen, he saw Wen Han in a daze.

Was she… touched?

Recalling her drunken words from last night, his heart became gradually clearer.

In fact, she was even better than he imagined; she was just too stubborn, always hiding her fragile heart beneath a hard shell.

People like her are easier to feel pity for, and Su Zeheng couldn’t help but feel some compassion.

“Do you like it?” he asked, breaking the silence.

Wen Han snapped back to reality in a panic. “I… Hmph! It’s okay.”

Still being tsundere? Su Zeheng smiled but didn’t poke fun at her. “Hurry and eat; I still have to go to work later. I can’t be late today!”

…

Half an hour later.

Creak.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Su Zeheng, wearing slightly damp clothes, shook his head helplessly. “I need to go home and change.”

After saying that, he turned to leave, but was abruptly called back by Wen Han.

“Huh?”

“Um…” After hesitating for a moment, Wen Han looked up eagerly. “Uncle, the braised pork you made before was really delicious…”

“Ah?” Surprised for a moment, Su Zeheng raised an eyebrow. “Do you want to eat it?”

“Hmph!” Wen Han’s expression changed instantly. “I… don’t want it!”

A hint of a smile flashed across Su Zeheng’s face, unable to control his joyful expression. “Alright! How about I come over tonight?”

He tentatively suggested.

Wen Han understood and gave him a stubborn look, but nodded her head.

“I understand; I’ll wait for you tonight.”

Waving her hand, Su Zeheng left with a farewell and finally disappeared into the elevator.

The moment he left, Wen Han’s expression changed completely.

“Ugh! That was exhausting! But the effect was pretty good.”

Uncle definitely saw through my disguise, but he wouldn’t know that my disguise was actually a disguise to disguise my true feelings.

“Such a pure-hearted man is indeed easier to manipulate. If it weren’t for the Light Magic Society, I would have taken him down long ago.”

Nodding her chin, Wen Han blinked her alluring eyes.

“But… it won’t take long~”

…

“Hey! Old Chen!”

“Fat Brother, what are you doing?”

“Old Bai, nice clothes today! Haha!”

In the Light Magic Society, Su Zeheng, the last to arrive, greeted each colleague with a broad smile and a pat on the shoulder as he passed by.

Once he entered the changing room, Old Chen and the others stared at him open-mouthed, exchanging glances.

“Old Su… Can’t believe he’s haunted???”

…

“Xiao Lin, why haven’t you come find me recently?”

Entering the recycling station, Wen Han’s first glance was directed at Lin Wu Ju across the room.

Lin Wu Ju smiled faintly. “Aren’t we supposed to lure Su Zeheng? I doubt he’d be interested in a man.”

“That’s not necessarily true~” Wen Han flirted, flopping onto the sofa.

Lin Wu Ju put down the half-assembled LEGO. “How’s the task going?”

“Almost done.” Wen Han sneered coldly. “Su Zeheng already likes me; I’m just thinking about how to hurt him.”

“Is it that you don’t know, or you just can’t bear it?”

Swish!

The recycling station suddenly fell into silence.

A few seconds later, Wen Han raised her eyes coldly. “What did you say?”

“Those who toy with others’ feelings will end up getting played themselves.” Lin Wu Ju picked up the half-assembled item. “I don’t think my little witch would let herself get entangled in that way, right?”

“Hmph!” Wen Han scoffed. “Lin Wu Ju, do you really have so little faith in me?”

Lin Wu Ju silently pointed to his head. “Human emotions can sometimes be uncontrollable.”

“You can rest easy.”

I’m actually a man, you don’t think I know that?

“Su Zeheng is just a passerby to me. I approached him from the start just to toy with him; do you really think I would fall in love with someone…”

She hesitated for a moment, sneering disdainfully. “Someone who has never been in a relationship, doesn’t know how to interact with girls, and even gets shy while talking?”

“I really like your assessment of him.” Lin Wu Ju nodded. “Don’t delay this too long; Su Zeheng isn’t counted in the performance, which means we haven’t received any tasks this month.”

“…So?”

“If the performance isn’t outstanding in three months, we’ll still face punishment.”

“Weren’t we just after Ouxi Wei?” Wen Han frowned.

“Credit is credit, punishment is punishment.” Lin Wu Ju waved his hand. “You still can’t fathom the prince’s intentions.”

“…Got it.”

Wen Han didn’t take this matter to heart at all.

She quickly stood up and looked at Lin Wu Ju. “Su Zeheng is coming to my house tonight; are you coming?”

“I won’t go.” Lin Wu Ju’s expression remained calm. “You should cultivate your feelings with him, but don’t really fall in love.”

“Talk too much.”

Wen Han shot him a disdainful glance and turned to disappear into the chaotic void.

“…Almost?”

Looking at the empty recycling station, Lin Wu Ju rotated the ring on his thumb, a mysterious smile gradually appearing on his face.

“It is almost.”
