Tong Le rested her head on the dining table, gazing at the last bit of red wine in her glass, regretting her marriage. If only she hadn’t married.
Zong Zeyu silently watched Tong Le and spoke up, "I actually regret not marrying you sooner. If I had confessed and proposed earlier, things would be different."
Tong Le lifted her eyes and smiled, "Well, it’s all your fault."
Zong Zeyu reached over to take the wine glass from Tong Le's hand. "I’ll go get you a glass of warm water."
However, by the time he returned with the warm water, Tong Le had fallen asleep with her head resting on the table.
Looking at Tong Le’s adorable face, which was squished against the table, Zong Zeyu couldn’t help but smile. He took out his phone and snapped a picture of her, sending it to Zong Jin with the message: "The little drunkard is asleep. I’m staying here with her tonight and won’t be going back."
Zong Jin replied, "Tong Le isn’t divorced yet. You should go home. To avoid any misunderstandings, I suggest you call one of Tong Le’s trusted friends to stay with her for her sake."
Zong Zeyu thought about it and found Zong Jin's suggestion reasonable. He followed Zong Jin's advice and called Tian Ling, asking her to come over to keep Tong Le company.
Before leaving, Zong Zeyu carried Tong Le to the bedroom. He intended to resist his feelings, but seeing her peaceful sleeping face made it impossible. He gently placed a kiss on her lips. Though Tong Le was unaware, he felt happy.
Half an hour later, Tian Ling arrived at Tong Le's apartment. Zong Zeyu had left a key under the doormat for her. Tian Ling entered the house just as she received a call from Ke Wenjie.
Tian Ling answered the phone, and Ke Wenjie’s voice came through with an accusatory tone. "Is Tong Le with you? I called her but she didn’t answer! Make her pick up! She’s becoming more and more reckless!"
Taking a deep breath, Tian Ling lowered her voice and scolded him, "If she’s not with me, who else could she be with? Why are you so paranoid? You’re the most petty man I’ve ever met! If Tong Le is with me, why can’t you trust that? Last time too, you called me to question me! How much do you not believe in Tong Le? She must be heartbroken!"
Ke Wenjie insisted, "Just let me talk to her!"
Tian Ling replied, "She’s exhausted from cooking and fell asleep! I’ll video call you now; after that, don’t call me again! You’re a grown man obsessively watching your wife—get a grip!"
After hanging up, Tian Ling chuckled to herself. She initiated a video call with Ke Wenjie and pointed the camera at Tong Le’s sleeping face.
Then she turned the camera towards herself as she stepped out of the bedroom and whispered, "Is that enough? Have you confirmed your suspicions? Is your paranoia cured yet?"
Ke Wenjie on the other end was speechless. He indeed had doubts about Tong Le, especially since she hadn’t answered his calls. He recalled how Lan Qingqing had sworn that Tong Le was seeing another man; that thought made him even more anxious.
Tian Ling said firmly, "Hang up! Tong Le is sleeping with me tonight; don’t call me again! A grown man acting so suspiciously all day long is just embarrassing!"
