Stars In His Eyes

Though He Zhilan was not completely shocked by Zhou Hongjian’s confession, it certainly was unexpected, for Zhou Hongjin confessed with utmost seriousness.

The word ’meticulous’ fits Zhou Hongjin perfectly, as there are few men in this world who handle matters of the heart with such precision...

To the point of pedantry.

Zhilan firmly believed Zhou Hongjin was a good person, just as Lin Chan had stated, Zhou Hongjin was a mature and stable man.

But facing Zhou Hongjin’s confession, He Zhilan could only respond, "Zhou Senior, I’m sorry."

"Can you not reject me so quickly? You’re young and perhaps have never thought of relationships in school, so, I think I can wait for two years for your reply." He Zhilan’s apology would indeed make Zhou Hongjin regretful. Although he had anticipated scaring He Zhilan and even her rejection, her sorry still made him feel disappointed.

"Zhou Senior, you’re a wonderful person, but I am already married." After some contemplation, He Zhilan decided not to hide her marital status from Zhou Hongjin. It was the best way to reject Zhou Hongjin without hurting his pride.

Zhou Hongjin was taken aback. Before he could respond, Huang Cai called Zhilan from upstairs, "He Zhilan, your brother is on the phone!"

"I’m coming up!" He Zhilan was so excited that she even forgot to bid Zhou Hongjin goodbye. She turned and ran back to the building the moment she heard He Teng was on the phone.
