Chapter 1370: Plans to Marry You Somehow, his questions always managed to confuse her.

“How about we just forget about our deal?” Long Yuetian asked. All of a sudden, she wanted to back out.

“Miss Long plans to go back on her word?”

“N-no…”

Trust was necessary for business cooperation. Long Yuetian was aware of this after being the CEO of the Long Heng Group for so many years.

!!

“I guess it’s okay,” Long Yuetian compromised. “However, I have a request.”

“What’s your request?”

“Can you not tell Yiling and the others about our relationship for now?”

“Reason?”

“It’s a bit embarrassing,” Long Yuetian replied.

“Afraid of affecting your chances with other guys?”

“Other guys? What do you mean by that?”

“That young researcher is interested in you.”

“You mean Cheng Yi?” Long Yuetian laughed. “That’s definitely not the case. We’re just friends with common interests.”

“I respect your decision,” Zhai Zhongshen replied.

Then, he extended his hand and said: “Try it.”

He was asking Long Yuetian to hold his hand.

Long Yuetian froze again when she saw this gesture. She was clearly at a loss for words.

His hand was large and he had long fingers.

As she looked at his hand, Long Yuetian recalled what happened a few days ago when Zhai Zhongshen ripped a steel rod from someone’s hand.

His hands were very strong.

Something compelled her to reach out for his hand.

When their hands touched, Long Yuetian felt tense from head to toe.

All of her attention was focused on her hand.

Long Yuetian was lost in thought when suddenly, a strange sound could be heard in the reeds behind her.

Jian Yumin fell ungracefully out of the reeds.

As he stumbled, he could not stand up quickly.

Jian Yumin awkwardly looked up at Long Yuetian and Zhai Zhongshen.

However, Long Yuetian was even more embarrassed than Jian Yumin.

She hurriedly pulled her hand away.

Jian Yumin smiled awkwardly and stuttered out: “You guys continue… We… We didn’t see anything!”

“We?”

There was more than one person?!

Three more people popped out from behind the reeds.

It was Jian Yiling, Zhai Yunsheng, and Luo Xiuen.

As there were four people, it made it four times more awkward.

Two minutes after Long Yuetian left, Jian Yiling suddenly recalled something she wanted to ask her.

And thus, the other three people accompanied Jian Yiling to look for Long Yuetian.

Then, they bumped into this dazzling scene that left them all dumbfounded.

Was Zhai Zhongshen dating Long Yuetian?!

It’s not what you guys think. It’s not like that,” Long Yuetian hastily said. She tried to explain her relationship with Zhai Zhongshen to everyone else.

There was a smile on Zhai Yunsheng’s lips as he said: “Miss Long, you don’t need to be so nervous. You’re Yiling’s friend. It’s totally alright for you to be dating my uncle. Yiling can call you auntie in the future.”

Then, Zhai Yunsheng turned his head to Jian Yiling and said: “In the future, you need to call Yuetian your auntie okay? You’re cool with that, right?”

“I’m alright with that,” Jian Yiling replied docilely.

“No, it’s not like that.” Long Yuetian started again.

Long Yuetian looked back at Zhai Zhongshen. She wanted him to clarify the situation for her: “Please explain the situation to them. Tell them that we are not in that kind of relationship.”

“I do have plans to marry you.”

Instead of clarifying the situation, Zhai Zhongshen’s words had the complete opposite effect.

Why did he say that?!
