Chapter 825: She’s Not My Girlfriend

Zhuang Long guessed that she might have taken a plane back, so in the middle of the night, Zhuang Long rushed to the airport and flew to New York without saying anything to Ji Yinbing.

Clarice did not go home for Christmas and found it boring. She slept soundly in her apartment.

She had half a month off, but she had nowhere to go. Clarice planned to go to Julia’s for dinner that night. In the afternoon, the doorbell outside the villa rang. The housekeeper knocked on Clarice’s door with a frown.

Clarice opened the door and asked her, “What is it?”

The housekeeper said, “Miss Lawson, someone is looking for you outside the door. It’s a man.”

Clarice went downstairs and saw the person standing outside the door. Her face suddenly turned ashen. “Close the door!”

The housekeeper closed the door obediently.

It started to snow again outside. Clarice put on a warm coat and gloves and prepared to go to Julia’s for dinner.

She opened the door and was shocked speechless when she saw Zhuang Long standing at the door, covered in snow and his face turning purple from the cold.

“You…” Clarice’s heart ached and she was angry.” You’re indeed a fool. It’s snowing so heavily. Don’t you know how to avoid it? ”

Zhuang Long’s lips trembled for a long time before he stammered, “She’s not my girlfriend.”

Clarice looked at him deeply, her expression unreadable.

Zhuang Long added, “Her… her name is Ji Yinbing. She’s his good friend and his close friend’s girlfriend.”

Seeing that Zhuang Long was about to freeze, Clarice could only bring him back to the house.

She asked the maid to fill the bathtub in her room with hot water. Clarice called Julia and told her that she would not be going over tonight.

Julia asked her what had happened at the other end of the pass, but Clarice did not explain in detail. Zhuang Long stood behind her, trembling from the cold.

Clarice brought the frozen man back to the room. She personally peeled off his clothes and pressed him into the warm water.

The people who were freezing suddenly touched the hot water. Their bodies were like ants biting them, and they felt especially uncomfortable.

This feeling made Zhuang Long almost collapse. He was probably in an illusion as he kept saying, “I was wrong, I was wrong. I’ll listen to you from now on…”

Clarice’s heart ached.

She took off her clothes and followed him into the bathtub. She hugged Zhuang Long from behind. “Ah Long, Ah Long, don’t be afraid. It’s me. It’s me. Robert is already dead. No one will hurt you again, Ah Long…”

Gradually, Zhuang Long regained his composure.

Zhuang Long’s body was wrapped in hot water and was no longer as uncomfortable. Zhuang Long suddenly raised his head and kissed Chris.

Clarice was stunned, but she did not push him away. Instead, she hugged him even more tightly.

Zhuang Long had always thought that the night of revelry in the hotel was his first time with Xiao Li.

In fact, their first real time was on Christmas this year. That year, Zhuang Long had just turned 21, and Xiao Li was just 20.

Neither of them had dinner that Christmas.

The next morning, the two of them woke up a little early.

The chef made breakfast and brought it out when he saw them wake up.

Clarice faced the table full of delicacies, but she could not arouse her appetite. Zhuang Long saw that she was not interested and thought of how he had bullied her last night. His heart softened and he could not bear to see her lack of appetite.

“Why don’t I make you breakfast?”

Clarice was instantly interested.

“Okay.”

Zhuang Long went to the kitchen and Clarice followed him in.

“What do you want to eat?”

Clarice didn’t hesitate. “You,” she answered firmly.

Zhuang Long paused with the kitchen knife in his hand. He looked back at her with a fierce gaze. He shook his head and said, “Young people need to control themselves.”

Clarice looked like she had heard a joke.

“You’re the one who doesn’t know how to control yourself.”

Zhuang Long remained silent.

Since Clarice could not tell him what she wanted to eat, he would make some.

Zhuang Long made a basket of soup dumplings for Clarice, a plate of almond prawn steak, and a plate of rice balls made of fresh prawns and vegetables. Clarice had always been a person who controlled her diet. After all, she loved beauty and was afraid of gaining weight. However, this morning, she made an exception and ate too much.

“You’re really amazing.” Clarice’s praise was not exaggerated.

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Long said, “When I was young, there was a period of time when no one at home cooked and I could only cook myself. At first, the dishes I made were also very unpalatable, but I learned later on.”

These words made Clarice’s heart ache again.

“It’s okay. I know how to cook noodles. When you’re hungry in the future, I can cook for you.”

Zhuang Long asked her what she would do.

Feeling smug, Clarice said proudly, “I can cook spaghetti.”

“Then we can try it at noon today.”

“Sure.”

At noon, Clarice really made two servings of spaghetti. The taste was indeed very good. Zhuang Long gave her face and cleaned the entire plate.

They spent a few shameless days at home. On January 5th, something happened to Julia.

Clarice did not expect Julia to be so foolish.

In order to leave the Lawson family and marry the person she loved, she had openly challenged the dignity of the entire Lawson family and wanted to cut ties with them.

The family had to punish disobedient clansmen like Julia.

The family brought them many things that ordinary people did not dare to think about, such as wealth, fame, and status. It was not easy to cut ties with the family.

Julia insisted on leaving the Lawson family despite her parents’ advice. In the past few years, more and more young people in the family were dissatisfied with the family rules. There were many people who had the same thoughts as Julia, but she was the first to speak up.

In order to show off and establish their might, the law enforcement officers of the Lawson family decided to extract the blood in Julia’s body and replace it with someone else’s. She could leave the Lawson family, but she could no longer have the blood of the Lawson family flowing in her body.

A living person had to experience the process of having their blood drawn and then transfused. This punishment was inhumane.

This judgment quickly spread in the clan. Those who had something in their hearts were as obedient as quails.

Julia, on the other hand, accepted this judgment.

When Clarice heard this news, she could not be bothered to be intimate with Zhuang Long and drove back to the Lawson family’s private hospital. Clarice was the chosen heir of the family. She was the future head of the family, but her biological sister always wanted to leave the family.

When she arrived, everyone looked at her excitedly.

Clarice walked to the surgery door and saw the scene inside through the glass window.
