Chapter 27 Do you really like Hong? A captivating stubbornness.
"You are unfortunate, yet very fortunate," Zhou Ze said with a smile. "I can sense from his words that he is also very proud of you."
"Really?" A hint of surprise and shyness appeared on her alluring face.
Nothing pleases children more than their parents' affirmation.
"Alright, let's stop with the small talk." Zhou Ze's expression returned to calm as he said, "I learned about your general situation from Hong."
"You've been following Hong since you were little, and you've been practicing spiritual cultivation with him, but it seems the results aren't quite ideal?"
Her alluring expression was somewhat downcast: "I followed the instructions exactly, but I don't know why it's not working..."
"Because you dare not face your true self!" When faced with similar problems, Zhou Ze always believed that cutting through the Gordian knot and being decisive and swift was the best approach.
Hesitation leads to defeat, and a soft heart leads to loss!
"You like Hong, don't you?"
Zhou Ze's voice was like thunder, exploding in Yao Rao's heart!
"Of course...he's like a father to me..."
Yao Rao was panicking inside. Despite having the strength of a councilor, standing at 1.9 meters tall, and having an exaggeratedly large figure, she acted like a little girl, creating a huge contrast!
"No, I'm talking about romantic feelings! I've seen you sneakily glancing at Hong several times, with that awkward look in your eyes. You think you're hiding it so obviously, but even a fool could see through it."
"You think Hong doesn't know? He just didn't say anything, afraid of hurting you, or perhaps he's been waiting for an opportunity, and that opportunity is me!"
Zhou Ze said indifferently.
Click!
Enchantingly devastated, she refused to accept reality and exclaimed, "Enough! Stop talking!"
"Why are you yelling so loudly..." Zhou Ze raised an eyebrow. This Hong Zhen was inhuman; he couldn't even handle his own problems.
As they spoke, a light blue domain bloomed, enveloping the entire training hall.
He didn't want his seductive voice to get out and cause controversy. It wasn't that he was afraid, he just found it troublesome.
As the domain expanded, a power similar to Hong's instantly calmed Yao Rao down considerably.
But she still held onto hope.
"I know the museum owner is afraid of trouble. As the number one person on Earth, he has too many people paying attention to him. Besides, he has his own children. If others find out that he has fallen in love with his adopted daughter..." she said with a confident and alluring expression.
Zhou Ze said calmly, "He has never liked you..."
Before Zhou Ze could finish speaking, Yao Rao raised her voice: "But why is he so concerned about me? This is clearly more than just familial affection; he obviously likes me too!"
"He just doesn't want to face it. He's afraid, afraid that the whole world will know about my relationship with him."
"If he doesn't like me, why doesn't he just say so? Why did he make me his bodyguard? He calls me his bodyguard, but I've been doing his secretary's job the whole time..."
Damn it, Sima Hong!
You owe me a debt of gratitude you can never repay in your lifetime! Be honest and loyal to me!
Zhou Ze felt like he was having a huge headache.
Women who have lost their minds, unruly children who haven't developed their intelligence, and elderly people who stage accidents to extort money—these are the most troublesome!
Even a bratty child can be intimidated by a stick, and an elderly person trying to extort money from another person will also have to be wary.
A woman who has lost her mind is crazier than a pig during the Lunar New Year...
"Hong cares about you because he's always treated you like a daughter! Given Hong's mindset, if he truly loved you, he wouldn't care what others thought. But precisely because of that, how could he possibly fall in love with the adopted daughter he raised himself?"
"You spend more time with him than his own children, don't you? His affection for you is no less than that for his own children, and may even exceed it."
"Making you a bodyguard was one of his measures... He's been worried about you and paying attention to you, but he didn't want to say it directly because he was afraid you wouldn't be able to handle it."
"After all, you seem very strong in terms of strength and have great talent in martial arts, but you are really fragile when it comes to emotions..."
Yao Rao was unable to refute it for a moment, but at this moment her brain had temporarily undergone super evolution, and her IQ was simply the highest on Earth!
She calmed down slightly and analyzed the situation logically: "He could easily keep me out of his sight, and over time I would gradually forget about him. The claim that he wanted me as his bodyguard is unfounded. He does like me, but he's afraid to face it..."
puff!
Zhou Ze felt like he was going to vomit blood.
Women's IQs are particularly absurd; sometimes they're zero, and other times they're comparable to Einstein's...
Sima Hong!
After cursing under his breath again, Zhou Ze adjusted his mindset and said sarcastically:
"Do you know the story of blondie and old man Deng?"
Yao Rao listened, wanting to speak again, but was immediately stunned by Zhou Ze's voice, which was mixed with the power of his domain:
"You are an orphan. Because you are Hong's adopted daughter, you have a noble status and no friends. You place all your affections on Hong..."
"If Hong deliberately distances himself from you, do you think you wouldn't overthink things? And what if, in this most vulnerable emotional state, someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of the situation?"
"The number of people who want to be Hong's son-in-law could circle the Earth a hundred times..."
Zhou Ze said meaningfully, "Speaking of which, Thor is the most qualified to speak on this matter..."
Hong may appear cold on the surface, but his inner passion is no less than that of Thor or Luo Feng.
"Thor..." Yao Rao's eyes were blank.
As the only two superhuman beings on Earth, Thor and Hong are under the watchful eyes of major powers around the world.
The affairs between Thor and his daughter are known to all the major powers in the world, and Thor has publicly made harsh statements about it.
Hong naturally had his reservations. After all, many things appear the same on the surface, but there are all sorts of underhanded dealings going on behind the scenes, and you can't find any evidence. Everything just happens naturally.
Zhou Ze slowly said, "So you understand now?"
"You're old enough to grow up. You can do anything, but please stop causing trouble for your father!"
Her alluring body trembled.
"But I really like the museum owner. I won't let him worry anymore. I won't fall in love with any other man besides him!"
She wiped away her tears, remaining stubbornly defiant.
Zhou Ze had said everything he could, and all his mental energy was fully mobilized.
Yes, even something like this is considered guidance in the context of cheating. As a student, Yao Rao also has an aptitude bonus when listening to lectures and understanding the content.
But when it comes to this kind of mindset and state of mind, it seems that no matter how high one's understanding or state of mind is, it's not enough, because from the very beginning, Yao Rao knew that she was deceiving herself.
"Actually, you know all of this clearly, and you know that Hong's feelings for you are those of a father and daughter. You even know that your feelings for Hong are not romantic love, but familial love. So why are you afraid to face it?"
Zhou Ze's expression was calm, as if he were an elder speaking slowly:
"This is because you rely on him too much, and Hong is not good at expressing himself, even appearing somewhat cold. He's a man of action, not words. His apparent coldness has even made you overlook his actual actions of caring for you..."
"Women naturally crave affirmation; you need constant affirmation to give yourselves a sense of security."
"So, you're so afraid of losing Hong... that this distorted emotion arose because you lost everything at a young age, and Hong was like a ray of light entering your heart..."
Her alluring eyes, brimming with tears, stared at Zhou Ze, revealing her extreme vulnerability and inner turmoil.
"A daughter is a father's little cotton-padded jacket..."
"With Hong's mindset, he saw things very clearly. He knew that if things continued this way, this situation was very likely to occur, but compared to the other option, he preferred this one..."
Her alluring expression remained calm: "No matter what you say, I just can't let go. Besides, I'm not related to the master by blood, and he's single..."
