Keeping the promise

Chapter 243 Obsession

A few days later, when night fell, the city streets were illuminated by bright lights, like a colorful galaxy.

At this moment, Zheng Zichun was standing at the door of a luxury hotel. She was wearing an elegant evening dress with exquisite tailoring and unique design. The silky smooth fabric gently brushed across the ground, as if telling of nobility and elegance.

She tilted her head slightly, her beautiful face brimming with confidence and calmness.

Xiao Yuzhou, who was standing beside him, was wearing a neat suit, with an upright and handsome figure. He gently stretched out his right arm, and Zheng Zichun understood and put his hand on it. The two smiled at each other, with endless tenderness and tacit understanding in their eyes.

Then, they walked slowly into the venue of the charity dinner with light but firm steps.

Every step she took was so graceful and elegant, attracting the attention of people around her. Zheng Zichun's skirt swayed gently with her movements, like a dancing fairy; Xiao Yuzhou's figure exuded a powerful aura that made people fall in love with him.

Inside the venue, the lights were bright and celebrities gathered. Zheng Zichun and Xiao Yuzhou attracted many eyes as soon as they entered. However, Zheng Zichun inadvertently scanned the crowd and found Li Yunting.

Li Yunting was wearing a neat suit and standing not far away. His eyes also caught Zheng Zichun's attention, but this time, he just watched from a distance, with complicated emotions in his eyes, but he never moved forward.

Xiao Yuzhou was soon surrounded by some people who wanted to cooperate, and everyone was talking eagerly.

The business topics were endless, but Zheng Zichun had no interest in it, so he gently let go of Xiao Yuzhou's arm and walked aside.

She walked to a relatively quiet corner, picked up a glass of champagne, took a sip, and tried to calm her slightly confused mood.

Although Li Yunting did not come forward to disturb him, his appearance still caused a ripple in Zheng Zichun's heart.

At this moment, Zheng Zichun was looking at the lively scene in the venue, but his thoughts were a little wandering.

Zheng Zichun left the bustling crowd and walked into a quiet flower room. The room was filled with fresh floral fragrance, and various gorgeous flowers competed for beauty.

She walked slowly, her eyes lingering on the beautiful flowers, and her mood gradually relaxed.

On the other side, Li Yunting's eyes followed Zheng Zichun's leaving back, as if he was pulled by an invisible force and unconsciously followed her footsteps.

When Zheng Zichun turned around, their eyes met unexpectedly in the flower room. In an instant, time seemed to freeze and the air seemed to become heavy.

Li Yunting was just about to explain that he had no intention of following, but suddenly he heard a "click" and the door of the flower room was locked tightly.

He rushed to the door, turned the handle hard, and shouted loudly: "Open the door! Open the door quickly!" However, no one responded from outside the door.

Zheng Wancheng was filled with anger at first, believing that this was Li Yunting's conspiracy. She glared at him and said sternly, "Li Yunting, what on earth do you want to do? Is this another of your tricks?"

Li Yunting defended himself anxiously, "It's not me, Zheng Zichun, believe me, I don't know why this happened."

Zheng Wancheng didn't listen at all and snorted coldly: "Do you think I will still believe you?"

Li Yunting had no choice but to continue trying to open the door, but it still had no effect.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and Zheng Wancheng gradually calmed down. She looked around and found that Li Yunting's expression did not seem to be fake.

At this time, she took out her mobile phone, but found that there was no signal at all.

Zheng Wancheng frowned, feeling annoyed. Li Yunting also gave up trying to open the door, turned to look at her, and said helplessly: "It seems that we can only stay in the same room for the time being, waiting for the people outside to notice something unusual."

Zheng Wancheng turned his head away, not looking at him, and said coldly: "This is all your fault!"

Li Yunting sighed: "I know you blame me, but this is really an accident."

The atmosphere in the flower room was awkward and subtle. Both of them were silent, each thinking about their own things.

Zheng Zichun was secretly upset about his bad luck, while Li Yunting was thinking about how to break the deadlock and make Zheng Zichun soften his attitude towards him.

Time passed by, and the silence between the two remained unbroken. Li Yunting would occasionally glance at Zheng Zichun, trying to find a topic to start with, but he would stop talking again and again. Zheng Zichun kept staring at the flowers, but his mind was not on them at all.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yunting finally mustered up the courage to say, "Zheng Zichun, whether you believe it or not, I really didn't mean to pester you on purpose. It's just that there are some things I've been wanting to find a chance to explain to you clearly."

Zheng Zichun turned his head, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes: "What do you want to say?"

Li Yunting took a deep breath: "Regarding the past, I know I did a lot of things wrong. Because of my obsession, I hurt you. But I really have been regretting it and have been trying to make up for it."

Zheng Zichun sneered: "Make up? Do you think the damage has been done and can be made up?"

Li Yunting looked gloomy: "I know it may be difficult, but I still hope you can give me a chance to prove that I have changed."

Zheng Zichun remained silent, feeling mixed emotions.
