Once Upon A One Night Stand

Chapter 195

After a long time, Shu Tian replied, "Maybe I have no faith in myself."

Then she added, "Your family hasn't accepted me yet, not to mention Jiang Chujing's conditions. Also, I

am worried about what others will think of me. There are still many obstacles along the way.

Although these obstacles were invisible and intangible, they were always on Shu Tian's mind.

She didn't have much confidence in herself, and perhaps even she didn't think that she was a good

match for Li Han.

This man was very outstanding. The longer she had been with him, the more she felt his passion and

sincerity, as well as his purity, and those were all hardly seen in successful people.

"Don't underestimate yourself." Li Han knew that she had some stress, but he didn't expect her to be

that anxious. "I'm not a rich second generation. I have the right to live life at my will, and I am also

capable enough of choosing the one with whom I will spend my entire life. Jiang Chujing and my family

won't be a problem. You're the one who plays the key role."

He had said this before. However, it caused Shu Tian stressed even more. She didn't want to bring Li

Han a negative impact, nor did she want him to quarrel with his family. She even wondered if his

parents had known Jiang Chujing's existence.

Shu Tian shook her and interrupted this terrible thought.

"Tian?" Seeing that she was in a trance, Li Han called her softly.

Shu Tian recovered from her absent-mindedness and forced a smile, "Maybe it is because our

relationship becomes deeper, which inevitably makes me consider too much. But don't worry, I know

how to make myself feel better."

Li Han stared into her eyes, knowing that she felt uneasy, but he didn't want to push too hard. He

stroked her face, "Just let me know if you're unhappy, all right?"

"Okay, don't worry."

"And," He bent down, looked deep into her eyes, and said firmly, "We won't be apart."

He could not imagine that he would fall in love with someone else, except for Shu Tian. Love was so

luxurious for him that he could only love her and wanted to give his heart to her.

He wanted to focus all his attention on her. He badly needed the feeling of being firmly loved and

believed.

His eyes were too aglow, so Shu Tian felt his desire immediately. He just frankly and decisively let her

know his mind.

Shu Tian nodded with red eyes and snuggled up in the man's warm arms. Let it be. He had done so

much for her and changed so much. Then she had to be more determined.

[...]

Day by day, ever since the last conflict over pajamas, Jiang Chujing had been much more polite to Shu

Tian. She did not do any more annoying things. Occasionally, she went to please Li Han willingly. As

long as she didn't go too far, Shu Tian would turn a blind eye.

Fortunately, over the past few days, her condition had not continued to worsen, nor had she shown any

signs of self-harm that she had been worried about before. George said that the family life had given

her warmth and help. There was no way to know whether it was true or not. She could only say that the

result was not bad.

As the new year approached, everyone got busy at work, and even Shu Tian had to work overtime, not

to mention Li Han. He had spent at least 12 hours on work and could only sleep for five or six

hours. He even lost weight because of the hectic work.

Seeing that every family had done the decorations for Spring Festival, Shu Tian couldn't help but want

to buy some ornaments. By coincidence, when Shu Tian was on leave, Ye Lihua asked her to go

shopping. She didn't want to face Jiang Chujing at home, so she agreed.

They went to the mall near home. There was still half a month to go to Spring Festival, but it had taken

on a festive air.

Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei lived here, and they were familiar with the shops here. As soon as they

entered a shop, they heard the boss, a middle-aged woman, praising, "Oh, I haven't seen you for a

long time. Is this your daughter? She looked so pretty."

Embarrassed by the praise, Shu Tian quickly waved her hand and went to the side to choose Spring

Festival couplets.

Ye Lihua chatted with her old acquaintance, the boss, pleasantly. Shu Tian liked a pair of Spring

Festival couplets as she believed they contained auspicious omens.

Compared with those cliches, the couplets were not so vulgar. She picked them up, imagined the look

of them being posted at the entrance gate of Imperial Villa, and felt satisfied.

Later, she picked out a few more red paper cuttings that were believed could bring luck. There were all

kinds of them, and she could paste them in different places. There were also red lanterns, which would

look good for sure if she hung them next to the door.

In the end, she collected a bagful of stuff, took them over, and asked the boss, "Hi, how much are these

in total?"

The boss was chatting with Ye Lihua happily. She glanced at the pile of things in her hand and smiled

warmly. "Why are you buying so much? Do you have enough space for them at home?" Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Shu Tian didn't know how to explain and said awkwardly, "Except for myself, I also bought some for my

friend. "

Friends? She bought a friend Spring Festival couplets?

The boss was acute, realizing something immediately. She smiled even more brightly and looked at Ye

Lihua. "I told you that your daughter is beautiful. She must have many admirers. Who would be so

lucky to marry your daughter?"

She was talkative and did not make people feel uncomfortable. Everyone knew about Shu Tian's

divorce. Many people gossiped behind her and said that no one would want to marry her. Although Ye

Lihua did not show it, she was angry inside.

Hearing this, although she replied modestly, her face was already beaming with smiles. "You flatter

me."

"I am just telling the truth."

After chatting for a while, Ye Lihua finally paid and left. She immediately took Shu Tian's hand and

asked, "Did you buy these for Li Han?"

Shu Tian knew she had no option but to node perfunctorily. "Yes, I thought I had been here, so why not

buy some for him? It's not a big deal at all."

"It's not a big deal?" Ye Lihua gave her a funny stare. "Do you think I'm a fool?"

"You're not stupid. You're the smartest. No one on this planet is smarter than you, so Mrs. Ye, can you

let me go now?"

"Hey, you!" Ye Lihua tut. She raised her hand and patted Shu Tian's arm. "I mean, shouldn't you let us

know about this?"

"Oh, mom." Shu Tian bent down and rubbed her head against Ye Lihua's shoulder. She explained to

her like a cute kid, "I'll let you see him when there's a chance."

"Really?"

"I promise."

"Okay then." Ye Lihua was slightly relieved this time. "You didn't have a good end with Tang Zechen

before, and now you are with Li Han. Your father and I are afraid that you will suffer again. And

regarding these things, you will need to make your own decisions, so you can share it with me

whenever you want."

Ye Lihua's words touched Shu Tian to heart. It seemed they had changed a lot these days. Ye Lihua

had always wanted to get involved in her love life before, but now she respected her own thoughts

more.

"Mom..." Shu Tian pressed her lips and couldn't help but cry, feeling unspeakable pains in her heart.

Ye Lihua turned her face away and patted the back of her hand. "Alright, Spring Festival is around the

corner. Don't be unhappy. Let's go and buy some stuff from your Uncle Zhao."

After the shopping, it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon when they got home. Shu Changlei

cooked fish at home and waited for them. As soon as he saw them at the door, he took all the stuff in

their hands and put them in the kitchen and living room.

As soon as Shu Tian gave all the things to Shu Changlei, the phone in her pocket rang. She took it out

and saw that it was Li Han.

She glanced at the kitchen and saw that Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei were busy. Then she sneaked into

her room and cautiously said, "Hello?"

"Are you done shopping?" The man's clear voice came through the microphone, so deep and pleasing

that her ears couldn't help but press against the phone closer.
