Chapter 93: Zuo Huo’s Confession

Thinking of this, Song Yao could not help but feel dizzy.
Seriously, she clearly didn’t know how to drink, but she drank so much that she lost her memory. When she woke up, she didn’t remember anything.
Song Yao made up her mind. She didn’t want to touch alcohol anymore. If she really encountered that kind of emergency, she would think of a way to escape. Otherwise, for someone like her who was easily allergic to alcohol, one more sip of baijiu would kill her!
Gu Li fed Song Yao the millet porridge and said with a smile, “I see that you’re quite romantic. Although that Lin Feng from before was unreliable, the young man who came last night did look good! How did the two of you meet?”
“What young man?” Song Yao was a little dumbfounded. Could it be Zuo Huo?
Just as she was guessing, Zuo Huo entered the room.
“Auntie, let me do it.”
“Sigh! Alright! I won’t disturb you!” Gu Li closed the door proudly.
Song Yao lay on the bed and said weakly, “Why are you here?”
Zuo Huo took the opportunity to sit down. “Don’t you know that you’re allergic to alcohol?”
Song Yao looked at Zuo Huo weakly. “If I told you that I only found out about this last night, would you think that I was too careless?” Zuo Huo was speechless.
Song Yao sat up. “Eh? Where’s Boss He from last night?” Zuo Huo stared at Song Yao. “Let’s go.”
“Didn’t he say anything before he left?” Song Yao asked.
The man said, “I want you to help me collect 10,000 catties of chestnuts.”
“It’s alright…” Song Yao heaved a sigh of relief. “By the way, when did you come over last night?”
Zuo Huo frowned. “You can’t remember?”
Song Yao nodded and asked Zuo Huo, “When did you come yesterday?”
So she didn’t remember anything. Then she must not have heard He Ren’s confession.
At the thought of this, Zuo Huo’s lips curled into a smug smile.
After a moment of silence, the man said, “Don’t worry. After you fainted, I was the one who brought it back to you.”
Song Yao heaved a sigh of relief. For some reason, she felt much more at ease after hearing that Zuo Huo had sent her back.
“Thank you.” Song Yao finished the rice soup in her bowl and said to Zuo Huo.
Zuo Huo frowned. “Don’t you have anything else to say to me?
Song Yao wanted to say “you deserve better”, but she couldn’t bring herself to say it. In the end, she smiled and said, “It’s nothing.”
“Is it really nothing?” The man suddenly leaned closer, scaring Song Yao so much that she shrank back. Ever since she got divorced, this was the first time she was so close to a man her age. It was so close that she could see every pore on his skin.
This reminded her of countless nights in the past two years when she took care of Zuo Huo.
Her face instantly turned red. Song Yao turned her head away from him. “You can go out first. I want to change.”
Zuo Huo stared at her for a long time before standing up. “You should understand my intentions. If you want to be with me too, please respond to me directly! ”
“I have nothing to say to you!” Song Yao said stubbornly, “Besides, there should be many young ladies who like a good man like you. I’m a divorcee. How can I be worthy of you?”
“You know that’s not what I care about!” Zuo Huo frowned. “Song Yao, I just want you to give me an answer!”
“I’m sorry, I can’t answer this question!” Song Yao began to take off her clothes.
Zuo Huo did not dare to stay for long. After closing the door, he went to the front yard to help Song Ping repair the plaque.
Song Yao stared at Zuo Huo, who was working for Song Ping outside the courtyard, and could not help but feel touched.
She hoped that he didn’t like her because he was hot-headed, let alone because she took care of him for a few more days and pursued her to repay his kindness.
Song Yao lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep. Zuo Huo worked hard to help Song Ping saw wood.
“Oh no, young man, how is this something you can do?”
Song Ping was a little embarrassed. He hurriedly pulled Zuo Huo and called out to Gu Li, “Old woman! This young man insists on working! I can’t stop him?
Hurry up and call him in to sit!”
When Gu Li, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard the noise, she took off her apron and left the courtyard. “You’re here!”
“Young man, you can’t do this job! Come in and have a bowl of chicken soup. I made it myself!”
Gu Li wanted to pull Zuo Huo into the house, but Zuo Huo said, “Uncle, let me do some work.. I have plenty of strength!”
