My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 84 Kneel Down 1

Lin Zhenxin shook her head, but she was indeed startled when she saw a few colleagues on her way out.

"Is it about work?" Li Yanan's eyes were deep.

This time, Lin Zhenxin nodded; the work-related issues were indeed troubling her.

"Two options: quit the late-night show and take on this new program."

"After all, finishing the late-night show too late is bad for your health."

Every day, the program ends at 1:30 AM. By the time she packs up and gets home, it's past two, too exhausting.

"What about the second option?" Lin Zhenxin was curious.

"Resign, I'll support you."

Li Yanan said it very neatly.

Even if she never went to work again in her life, he could support her, let her live comfortably.

The knot in Lin Zhenxin's heart disappeared when she heard "I'll support you," and she couldn't help but laugh.

This man, his skill in sweet talk is totally maxed out.

With just a casual remark, he could stir a woman's heart; fortunately, he disguised himself as an ordinary-looking man.

Otherwise, who could resist him?

"First, I can't bear to leave my late-night shift colleagues. Second, I won't resign."

"I don't want to stay at home every day and turn into a yellow-faced woman, only to be despised."

Lin Zhenxin couldn't see herself as a housewife. She believed a woman should have her own career to avoid being eliminated.

Moreover, she couldn't accept the life where she would have to revolve around kids and a kitchen stove from the moment she opened her eyes.

She couldn't stand it!

Li Yanan didn't say anything, sipping his coffee.

At least from his expression, Lin Zhenxin couldn't discern what he was feeling.

"Actually, what bothers me are the rumors. Rumors go around, and I don't know how many versions of me exist in others' mouths, as if I'm the one forcing Shelley to have a relationship with the station director for the anchor position!"

Lin Zhenxin never expected that one day the gossip in the break room would revolve around her.

"When you heard others speaking ill of you, did you also feel sad?"

Putting herself in his shoes, Lin Zhenxin suddenly felt a bit sad for the life Li Yanan had lived all these years.

"Not sad, because I know they're not true." Li Yanan's gaze was profound, looking at her disappointed little face.

Knowing half of these emotions were for himself, his parched heart felt warm.

"Zhenxin, remember, when you're strong enough, when you stand at a height others can't reach, you'll naturally ignore these rumors. Because they can't hurt you, because... you don't have time to bother with these people!"

Lin Zhenxin listened and looked at Li Yanan with a very complicated expression.

"Your thoughts are really mature."

"Little girl, I'm ten years older than you, of course I'm more mature." Li Yanan reached out to tweak her nose.

"Does that mean I have to call you Uncle Li?"

Being called a little girl, Lin Zhenxin didn't want to back down.

But she didn't notice that as soon as she said "uncle," a storm of desire rose in Li Yanan's eyes.

"I don't mind you calling me uncle in bed, treating it as a bit of fun between us as a couple!"

"Rogue!" Lin Zhenxin's face immediately turned red from his words. In front of Li Yanan, she was just a novice in a romantic relationship.

"At night, who doesn't know who clings to me and won't let go."

He whispered this in her ear, and the next second Li Yanan felt the flesh on his waist being pinched.

Their little movements under the table continued, but suddenly Lin Zhenxin's movements froze as if they'd been paralyzed.

Li Yanan raised his head to follow her gaze...

It was Tu Wanzi!

She looked haggard, as if she hadn't cared for herself, and her eyes lit up when she saw Lin Zhenxin.

Obviously, her purpose for being here...

was Lin Zhenxin!

Lin Zhenxin's expression changed instantly.

Tu Wanzi walked over quickly, reaching her front in the blink of an eye.

"Zhen... Zhenxin!" Tu Wanzi struggled to pull a kind smile from the corners of her lips.

"There's nothing we need to discuss." Lin Zhenxin responded coldly.

"Zhenxin, I have something to ask of you, please listen to me, okay?" Tu Wanzi, as if afraid she'd leave, reached out to grab her.

Of course, Lin Zhenxin didn't want to. Her avoidance was obvious, and before Tu Wanzi could get close, Li Yanan had already blocked her.

"Lady Tu, I'm just a minor character, you need something from me?"

Lin Zhenxin's voice sounded dry and sharp, different from the past.

Upon hearing this, Tu Wanzi immediately burst into tears.

Seeing that she couldn't get close to Lin Zhenxin because of Li Yanan's obstruction, she sobbed and, disregarding her dignity, knelt before them both.

"Zhenxin, I beg you to save Haohao!"

This kneel clearly attracted everyone's attention!

Even though there was music in the café, it couldn't drown out the whispering voices.

Lin Zhenxin took a big step back, her expression beyond simple description of unpleasant.

Li Yanan also didn't expect Tu Wanzi would kneel down, and he stood still for a moment.

"Save Haohao?"

Tu Haohao just fainted from a shock that night, how did it turn into life and death in just two short days?

"Zhenxin, I know I wronged you, I beg for your forgiveness, will you please come to the hospital with me? I'm begging you!"

Tu Wanzi had no image left to speak of.

Reaching out to grab Lin Zhenxin's leg, her fingertips almost embedded into her flesh, crying so pitifully.

Lin Zhenxin said nothing, but her whole body started trembling uncontrollably.

"Lady Tu, please maintain your dignity!"

Li Yanan put his arm around Lin Zhenxin's shoulders, but his mind was on that slap from Tu Shaohong in the past.

Zhenxin and the Tu Family...

"Even if Tu Haohao is dying, what does that have to do with me?"

Lin Zhenxin seemed to snap back to reality, abruptly pulling back her leg, her eyes bursting with a completely different kind of rage!

"I wish you all nothing but doom, and you're asking me for help?"

Her anger was obviously taking over.

"Dream on!" Lin Zhenxin threw down those words and ran out of the Starbucks.

Li Yanan glanced down at Tu Wanzi, then chased after her.

As for Tu Wanzi, she seemed as if her entire soul had been sucked out, as she limply remained on the floor, unmoving for a long time...

Lin Zhenxin didn't know how long she had walked, and when she came to her senses, she leaned against a sycamore tree by the roadside and started to vomit.

She hadn't had dinner, so she only threw up the coffee she had just drunk.

Li Yanan followed her all the way.

In crowded places, he shielded her from getting hit, and they finally stopped after walking two blocks.

"Zhenxin." Seeing she finished vomiting, Li Yanan reached out to hold her in his arms, gently comforting her.

Lin Zhenxin's stomach was in knots, and she clung to his shirt crying painfully in his arms.

The vomiting was purely a physiological response after being touched by Tu Wanzi, but the tears were from recalling too much from the past.

"It's okay, it's okay, let it out, you'll feel better!"

Li Yanan gently caressed her back, burying her face in his embrace.

After crying for an unknown amount of time, smelling the fresh pine scent from his embrace, Lin Zhenxin finally regained some calm.

"Please don't ask me for now, okay?" Lin Zhenxin said in a soft, sweet voice.

Li Yanan was slightly taken aback, then nodded, getting up to buy her a bottle of water from the nearby supermarket so she could rinse her mouth.

"Unless you want to tell me, I won't ask."

He reached out and stroked her hair, as if treating a child.

Lin Zhenxin tried to force a smile, but without a mirror, she knew it probably looked worse than crying.

"If you don't want to smile, then don't. In front of me, you have the right to be willful."

Li Yanan disliked seeing her this way, clearly suffering yet not wanting to worry others.

Lin Zhenxin was startled, and the tears that had already stopped fell again.

She buried her face in Li Yanan's embrace once more, having learned to hide her emotions since her father's death to avoid troubling those around her.

But the heavens showed mercy by sending this man to her side.

Letting her laugh when she wanted to laugh and cry when she wanted to cry, without any more fear or restraint.

It's so good...

"At the end of a long day, I come before you, you'll see my scars, you'll know I was once hurt, but also healed. Thank you to my listeners who've been with me till now, at 1:30 AM, let's meet again tomorrow night."

Lin Zhenxin exhaled deeply, placing her headset on the table.

When she returned that night, she brought back a Starbucks coffee for each colleague to make up for the afternoon's incident.

"Zhenxin, your package, I signed for it for you."

Sister Wang put the package on her desk and hurried away, as her husband was picking her up today.

Lin Zhenxin casually picked up a letter opener to open the package. She hadn't bought anything recently, and there was no sender's name on it.

Opening it up, she found money inside.

Over twenty dollars, along with a few coins, accurate to the cents.

Lin Zhenxin was initially bewildered, and then she remembered this amount was the same as what she had lent He Bainian at the supermarket.

—You're lying! I clearly saw your information in Brother Nian's office drawer!

Li Miya's words rang in her ears.

With a bang, she directly threw the package into the drawer, grabbed her bag, and left...

While Li Yanan went to shower, Lin Zhenxin entered grandma's room.

Sitting by the bed, she carefully turned on the light, looking at the elderly woman's sleeping face, her nose stinging with sorrow.

She didn't know what happened to Tu Haohao, but surely it must be urgent, otherwise Tu Wanzi wouldn't have kneeled to her in public.

"What does the Tu family's matter have to do with me?"

Under the warm orange bedside lamp, Lin Zhenxin's expression was cold, with a vibe that seemed to push people a thousand miles away.

When Li Yanan finished showering and came to the door, this was the scene he saw.

After some time, Lin Zhenxin looked up and saw him, reaching out to turn off the bedside lamp, leaving grandma's room.

"Do you want to know what happened to Tu Haohao?" As soon as the door closed, Lin Zhenxin heard Li Yanan's voice behind it.

She turned her head to look at him, Li Yanan was drying his hair, looking entirely refreshed after bathing.

After some hesitation, Lin Zhenxin finally nodded.

"Acute nephritis, kidney failure, needs a transplant." Just as Li Yanan finished speaking, it felt as if all the blood in Lin Zhenxin's body froze.

She finally understood what Tu Wanzi's intention was!

She actually had her eyes on her kidney!

"Why doesn't Tu Wanzi do the matching herself?"

Lin Zhenxin walked to the dining table, first sitting down, then getting up to take out a bottle of cherry wine from the wine cabinet.
