[R18] These men are poisonous – “These Men Are Poisonous” Chapter 138 [English]

Chapter 138: The first to get the moon near the water and the tower

Some old apartment doors were pushed open. Fang Jinglun followed Zuo Ning and walked in. Looking at the brand new decoration and furniture inside, he wondered: “You have been missing for two years, are you living here? I thought you were never in S city?”

“I will come back occasionally.” Zuo Ning turned around, closed the door, and put the key in the entrance hall. “Do you remember Jiang Pinghai? He was the one who threw money at me at the school gate. You found him later and forced you to record a video to clarify for me.”

“Of course I remember, he had the nerve to say he was your second uncle.”

Zuo Ning smiled and said, “If you hadn’t found someone to threaten him into selling three houses and two cars under his name, the debts my father and eldest brother owed during his lifetime would not have been repaid so quickly. Although I, as an adopted daughter who has not even gone through the formal adoption process, do not have a legal obligation to pay off their debts, I don’t want to leave a stain on their lives.”

“It’s right to force that bastard to sell his house and car. He lives and eats, and everything is not paid for by your father and your eldest brother? It’s all because your grandma doted on him too much when she was alive. If that kind of unlearned and unskilled moth were left in our Fang family, they would have been driven out of the house long ago.”

“Jiang Pinghai has passed away.”

Fang Jinglun was stunned: “Didn’t you never contact him?”

“No contact.” Zuo Ning sat down on the sofa with a calm expression, “I just didn’t expect that after my life experience was exposed on the Internet two years ago, he would take the initiative to call me.”

“Why is he looking for you? Is he asking you for money, or threatening you with something?”

“No, he is returning this house to me. He has not lived a good life these years. His wife and children are separated, and he is seriously ill. It is probably like what is shown in the movie. He is about to die and finally regrets it.

Before the car accident, after my father sold the villa, our family of five lived here. There were many precious memories in it, and there were even many things that I couldn’t take away with me at the beginning. Just like the villa by the Lotus Creek, this was a place that I had been obsessed with but was afraid to face.

But two years ago, when I stepped into this place uneasily, I discovered that it was actually just an ordinary house. It even looked a bit older from the outside, and it was not the style of house I liked.”

Zuo Ning raised his finger and pointed at the furnishings in the room, “Look, I have replaced all the things that brought me memories. Now I will neither dwell on the past nor be afraid of facing the past. So can Dr. Fang diagnose that my depression will not relapse?”

Fang Jinglun smiled: “This is not easy to diagnose. After all, there will be a long time to come, but as long as I am here, I will not let that day come.”

Zuo Ning suppressed the smile on his face and looked at him seriously: “Fang Jinglun, do you think you are stupid?”

Fang Jinglun shrugged: “I don’t think so. If I were stupid, how could I fall in love with such an outstanding person like you?”

Zuo Ning shook his head helplessly. Gao Xia was like this, and Fang Jinglun was like this. They were both terribly persistent and heart-wrenchingly good, but she really didn’t want to love him anymore.

“Anyway, whether you want to continue traveling or stay here to write, I won’t interfere with you, but you can’t run away while I’m not around, you can’t disappear anymore, and you can’t push me away.”

Fang Jinglun’s handsome face rarely showed such a rogue expression, “If I had known that you and Jiang Pinghai would still be in contact, I would have come here two years ago. If I didn’t waste these two years, we might even have a child by now. What a pity.”

“Are you so confident that I will fall in love with you?”

“It’s okay not to be confident. After all, this is my only goal in life now.”

So Fang Jinglun really acted like a rogue. He came to Zuo Ning’s apartment every day after get off work.

Zuo Ning had already refused and followed him. It wasn’t until one day when she opened the door and was about to go downstairs to throw away the garbage that she was surprised to find Fang Jinglun just coming out of the next door room.

“You…you didn’t buy this house, did you?”

Fang Jinglun nodded seriously: “Yes, the moon comes first when you are near the water. The renovations during this period didn’t bother you, right?”

Zuo Ning rolled his eyes weakly: “Although Jiang Pinghai made a will to give this house to me, I don’t plan to live here for a long time. Now that the knot in my heart has been resolved, this place has no meaning to me. I don’t like such an old building at all. Don’t you know this? Why did you buy this kind of house?”

“It’s just because it’s too old and I can’t live in it if I rent it, so I have to buy it and renovate it.” Fang Jinglun looked innocent. “Just buy it. Anyway, the location is okay. I just sell it if I don’t want to live in it in the future.”

“Okay, you have money, you can do whatever you want.”

“Throwing out the trash? I happened to be planning to ask you to go out to eat together, let’s go.”

“Let’s forget it for today. I’m on my period and I don’t want to move.”

Only then did Fang Jinglun realize that Zuo Ning’s face was indeed not very good, and he quickly took the garbage bag from her hand: “Do you want to go to the hospital?”

Of course, there was no need to go to the hospital, but Zuo Ning felt lazy and had no interest in anything. He ate some takeout, took a quick shower, and went back to his room to lie down.

When she got up from the bed and went to the living room to find some water, she discovered that Fang Jinglun was actually washing the underwear she had just changed in the bathroom.

“Hey! What…what are you doing?”

“I’ll help you with the housework.” Fang Jinglun said matter-of-factly, “This is also part of the housework.”

Zuo Ning’s face suddenly turned red when he saw that he actually waved his underwear at her.

Qiu Yibai washed her underwear in the past, and later Yu Haonan, Gao Xia and Wen Kaian also washed them, but probably because she had had the most intimate relationship with them, she had always been calm, but now seeing Fang Jinglun like this, she really felt a little uncomfortable.

“I can just do it myself, you don’t have to do this.”

“If you’re like this, who will do it if I don’t do it? Just lie down and leave the housework to me. Don’t worry, although I’m not good at housework, I can still manage to do the cleaning and scrubbing.”

Seeing that he was acting like a master, Zuo Ning didn’t want to say anything more. He turned around and was about to go back to the room, but heard he ask from behind: “Um…how can I wash off the blood stains on your underwear? I’ve been using laundry detergent for a long time, why are they still there?”

Zuo Ning felt that his face, which had just cooled down, was suddenly burning up again. He didn’t even dare to look back, and he just stammered: “Then… just throw it away. I don’t want it anymore. Don’t wash it. I… I’m going back to the room to sleep. I’m so sleepy. You should go back to the next door as soon as possible.”

Her actions could almost be described as running away. Fang Jinglun, whose ears were already reddish, stared at the direction she left for two seconds, then suddenly bent over and laughed silently.

“She’s still shy, so that’s interesting. Hahaha, her reaction is so cute…”
