Chapter 235 Telling the Truth
London at night, began to fill with a faint fog. Because London is always in a humid environment, there is always a bone-chilling chill in these mists. Coupled with those shadowy street lights, as long as it is a remote place. It always makes you feel like there is something hiding in a dark corner watching you. People can not help but a little creepy, suspicious.
However, Zhou Yi and Susan are obviously not suspicious. Because Susan is a native of London, she is used to this kind of weird ghost weather. And Zhou Yi, as a member of superheroes, has no reason to be afraid. The two of them chatted and laughed all the way, coupled with the sound of the powerful engine of the sports car. It is very conspicuous in this kind of night.
Conspicuous to the point where some people have started noticing them.
As soon as Zhou Yi stopped the car in front of the traffic light, a black figure approached immediately. He shook the flashlight in his hand, shining on Zhou Yi and Susan, and then knocked on the window, signaling Zhou Yi to roll down the car window.
"Sir, don't you know it's a little unsafe here recently?" The man with the flashlight first flashed his police badge to Zhou Yi and the others, and then asked very seriously.
"Sorry, officer. It's my first time in the UK and I don't know anything. Is this a British custom at night?" It's not a pleasant thing to be stared at with a flashlight, so Zhou Yi spoke naturally. Also a pistol with a stick.
"Foreigners?" The police officer who had the first impression of Zhou Yi's words pouted angrily. It's not a good thing to meet a foreigner in such a place at this time. In line with his responsibilities, he still said to Zhou Yi. "Sir, and this lady. May I see your papers?"
"Of course, police officer!" It was naturally Miss Storm who would be so honest. If it were Zhou Yi, she would have to choke at least twice. And Susan obviously has some understanding of Zhou Yi. She first made an example, and then held Zhou Yi's arm, showing a pleading look at him.
Only such a well-informed eldest lady would do such a well-behaved thing. Zhou Yi thought this way, but he handed over his credentials along with it. British and American family. Zhou Yi, who has American nationality, will naturally not be made extra difficult.
After returning the documents in his hand to Zhou Yi and the others, the policeman said again.
"Sir, and this lady. If I were you, I'd go back to my resting place honestly now. It's better to sleep or do something good than just hanging out."
In his opinion, this was a well-meaning persuasion, especially when he saw Susan's beautiful face in the passenger seat again, he couldn't help but say a few more words.
"listen,
man. It is better to hide such a beautiful female companion. Taking her around at this time, do you want to give her to those noisy underworld to enjoy directly? "
"police officer?"
"What, sir? Do you have any questions?"
"I just want to tell you that I have written down your warning sign. Well, I think you will have a lot of time to chat with the people in the review section. By the way, I will tell you that not everyone can use it. Nonsense."
It has already been said to such an extent that Zhou Yi is no longer Zhou Yi any longer. So he immediately counterattacked. The already overwhelmed policeman would definitely like the endless questioning and investigation from the Censorship Section. Here Zhou Yi just wanted to say no thanks.
He stepped on the accelerator and sped away under the police's whispered curses. Zhou Yi threw this annoying policeman out of his world almost instantly. And this time. Susan, who had just been disgusted by the words she hated the police, said.
"Thank you, Yi! Breathe out for me."
"No thanks, this is what I should do." Zhou Yi said with a grin. "However, Susan, I have a small suggestion. Maybe you should learn how to be more aggressive."
"Well?" Susan, who was in a bad mood, made a muffled nasal sound from her nose, obviously not knowing why.
And hearing this voice, Zhou Yi couldn't help but laugh. He felt that he was not surrounded by a mature woman. But a little girl who is sulking with herself. Just like his two daughters.
Maybe Zhou Yi smiled too obviously, maybe Susan was a little too sensitive at this time. She noticed Zhou Yi's smile almost immediately, and asked a little unhappily.
"You are laughing at me, you must be laughing at me. A pampered eldest lady can't even bear being told."
"No, no, no. I didn't think so at all!" Zhou Yiliang, who didn't want to be put on such a big hat, shook his head hurriedly, and at the same time expressed his thoughts. "I just think you're a little too naive. Even when you're angry, you think like a child, just like my two daughters."
"Do you have a daughter?" Susan's expression changed when she asked this sentence. Zhou Yi even felt that her face was even more ugly than when the policeman said those bullshit before.
"Relax. Susan. Didn't my mother tell you?" Zhou Yi said immediately with a smile. "I adopted two children after the last time we met!"
Hearing that it was not what she thought, Susan's face softened a lot. But she immediately thought of her excitement just now, and her face suddenly turned crimson again. In order not to let Zhou Yi notice, she immediately found a topic and wanted to distract him.
"Why? I mean why do you suddenly want to adopt two children?"
"Because these two children are very pitiful. And from a certain point of view, I think that my encounter with them is a choice of fate. Yes, it is a choice of fate." Zhou Yi said, and began to increase his tone. .
"You know what, Susan. I've never felt a father's love. I don't know what it feels like. But I do know that a child without a father is different. Sharis cried as a child. There have been many times, why did other people have their father pick them up, but when we arrived at our home, only my mother and I would always pick her up."
"It was a very young age, and I guess Sharis doesn't remember it. But I remember, it was a very bad feeling. So, if possible, I hope that these two fates have arranged for my children not to To be tortured by this feeling!"
"Sorry, Yi!" Susan couldn't help holding his hand when she heard this, and said apologetically. "It's all my fault for reminding you of such an unhappy thing!"
Zhou Yi shook his head. A soothing smile appeared on his face.
"It's not a sad thing, it's just a pity. A pity for not having a father! Men are much stronger creatures than you think. Of course, I mean emotionally strong."
"I know what you mean, but are you sure you need my comfort?" It seemed that Zhou Yi was not as vulnerable as she thought, and Susan said jokingly.
"Certainly, if the consolation is in any sense. I'm glad to have your consolation."
"No, it's just spiritual comfort. Sir, you're thinking too much!"
The two laughed all the way and reached the end of the trip. The Storm family's villa on the other side of London.
Because of the death of Susan's parents, the Storm family is far less wealthy and grand than people think. Relying on two young people, it is impossible to maintain the appearance of a noble. And although she is a noble, you must know that even the current Queen of England is not so comfortable, and the decoration of Buckingham Palace can only be superficial. What's more, a small declining noble.
Apart from two properties, Susan's parents left them nothing more. But the Storm siblings are also considered elites among the human class. Feeding yourself and making yourself comfortable isn't a big deal. Of course, if you want to live extravagantly, it is obviously very problematic.
However, Susan didn't seem to want to live this kind of life, and Zhou Yi did not see such clues through his knowledge of her. Smart women who can become outstanding researchers are not interested in extravagant life. They have their own unique values.
And this is why Zhou Yi admires her, a smart and wise, intellectual and beautiful gentle woman. In a way, Susan overlapped with a certain woman in his mind. She is very similar to Qin, but there are many differences.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi smiled bitterly in his heart. What happened to yourself?
He just wanted to say something, but this time. Susan, whose face was a little crimson, said it first.
"I'm home, maybe I should treat you to a cup of coffee?"
Many deeper relationships begin with an invitation from the opposite sex for coffee. From this invitation, Zhou Yi thought a lot. And because of these associations, he still decided to refuse.
"Sorry, Susan. Maybe now is not the time?"
"It's not the time?" Susan didn't understand what Zhou Yi meant. And Zhou Yi quickly began to explain it to her.
"You're a good girl, Susan. But I'm not the good man you think I am. Remember what I said about Tony Stark, I'm friends with him, a good one. So from In a way, I'm no different from him."
"I've been through a lot, with a lot of women. It's real, it's not a tabloid hoax. I have to confess to you. My love life is messed up in ways you can't imagine. In a way, I'm not eligible for your invitation! Do you understand, Susan?"
Susan never expected that Zhou Yi could say such a thing. She has a certain understanding of Zhou Yi, but this understanding is also very limited. She knew he was a playboy, but she didn't know exactly where the flowers were. Unlike Tony, he doesn't like being exposed to the spotlight. This makes many things about him have a mysterious color.
Mystery can arouse interest, and Susan clearly has her own opinion on Zhou Yi. His remarks didn't make her discolored or angry. A man who can tell his secrets is far more trustworthy than a man who hides secrets from women in the end. Moreover, she trusted her own judgment. A responsible man will always get better. However, for now.
"You're right, now is not the time. But in the future, maybe you will change your mind." (~^~)
