A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times

Chapter 181

Xiao Han immediately struggled out of his embrace and stood up. Xiao Zimo did not stop her.

"When...when did you return to the country?" Xiao Han asked somewhat awkwardly.

Xiao Zimo stood up and looked at her, "I just got back yesterday."

Xiao Zimo had just finished speaking when Xiao Han's phone rang.

Xiao Han took out her phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. She glanced at Xiao Zimo before answering the call.

A man's voice came from the other end, "Hello, Xiao Han, this is Bai Zhan. Aren't you about to get off work? I'm already at your hospital."

Xiao Han was stunned, suddenly remembering that she had told Bai Zhan about meeting her mother on WeChat yesterday.

She glanced at Xiao Zimo and said in a low voice, "Oh, please wait for me for a bit, I'll come down to find you right away."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Han said, "Xiao Zimo, I have to step out for a bit."

"Your boyfriend?" Xiao Zimo suddenly asked.

"What?"

Xiao Han was confused. Xiao Zimo shouldn't know about her asking a man to pretend to be her boyfriend to deal with her mother, right?

"Was that your current boyfriend who just called you? You're about to take him to meet your parents soon? Xiao Han, it seems I'm just a passerby in your life after all?"

He had called her Xiao Han, not Hanhan.

"I suppose it makes sense. With so many options here, you can do better. I understand."

"Like hell you understand!" Xiao Han suddenly spoke.

Xiao Zimo: "..."

"He's not my boyfriend. I just got him to help me deal with my mom's pestering about matchmaking! I'm nearly going crazy! My friend found a guy willing to act for me!" Xiao Han rolled her eyes at him, "You should know how it feels to be pestered about blind dates!"

Xiao Zimo was stunned for a moment, "So...you're still single now?"

"Like hell I'm single!"

"..."

Xiao Han glanced at him and mumbled, "Unless you divorce me! Then I'd be single..."

Upon hearing her words, Xiao Zimo unconsciously quirked up the corners of his lips.

So she still remembered they had gotten married.

He walked over to Xiao Han and pulled her into his embrace. He had assumed she was attached when he came back and didn't dare overstep.

Now, he had nothing holding him back.

"Hanhan..." Xiao Zimo held the back of her head and kissed her lips.

Although surprised, Xiao Han didn't push him away. Instead, she craned her neck to respond to the kiss.

Feeling Xiao Han's reaction, Xiao Zimo grasped her waist with both hands. He lifted and sat her down on the desk, nestling between her legs. He held her waist and passionately kissed her.

Sitting on the desk, their heights matched perfectly now that she no longer had to crane upwards.

Xiao Han wrapped her arms around his neck as they kissed with some abandon.

...

After some unknown amount of time, Xiao Han’s phone rang again, interrupting them. Still catching her breath, she hurriedly answered the call and saw it was from Bai Zhan. She immediately responded, "Hello Bai Zhan, I'll be right down..."

Hearing her odd tone, Bai Zhan asked, "Are you busy? If so, I can wait in the hospital's cafe."

"No no, I'm coming down now!" Xiao Han quickly replied.

After hanging up, Xiao Han glanced at Xiao Zimo. "I...I'll go down and explain things to him. He came all this way...I feel bad."

But Xiao Zimo didn’t respond. His gaze was fixed downwards, staring at her intently.

Xiao Han followed his line of sight and saw her blouse was askew, offering glimpses of the fair terrain underneath.

She immediately covered her collar and glared at Xiao Zimo, "Pervert!"

How dare he openly ogle her there!

Xiao Zimo suddenly smiled, "Hanhan...nice development."

"I--” Xiao Han flushed red and deliberately declared, “They’re fake, I got them enhanced!”

Hearing her excuse, Xiao Zimo couldn't help but chuckle lowly, “Real or fake, I’m more familiar than you.”

Xiao Han froze, “What do you mean?”

Xiao Zimo drew his gaze back and tidied her hair. "Nevermind. Weren’t you going to meet your pretend boyfriend?" He lifted her off the desk, "I’ll go with you.”

As Xiao Zimo led her away, Xiao Han suddenly recalled certain glimpses from their wedding night.

She grabbed Xiao Zimo’s arm and accused, "Xiao Zimo! What happened that night was real. You...you touched my..."

Xiao Han straightened her chest indignantly as she glared at him.

She had assumed those memories were just dreams. With Xiao Zimo’s gentlemanly behavior, she didn’t think he was the sort to take liberties.

Yet he had actually groped her!

Xiao Zimo paused before gently responding, “Hanhan, isn’t it a little late to react now?”

"You-- Xiao Zimo! You deceptive scoundrel!" Xiao Han kicked his shin in anger.

Xiao Zimo just smiled as he grabbed his glasses from the desk and slipped them on, "Hanhan, you still owe me a wedding night. When will you give it to me?"

"In your dreams!" Xiao Han huffed and stormed away.

Watching her leave, Xiao Zimo's lips curved up subtly. "It'll be soon."

...

Downstairs, they spotted Bai Zhan from afar, waiting by his car and waving at them when he caught sight of Xiao Han.

Just as Xiao Han started to hurry over, Xiao Zimo grabbed her hand to interlock their fingers.

Surprised, Xiao Han glanced back at him. Xiao Zimo gave her a faint smile as he walked them over.

Seeing the intimate gesture, Bai Zhan removed his sunglasses, clearly perplexed.

“What’s going on?”

"Um...Bai Zhan, sorry but it looks like I wasted your time today." Xiao Han apologized.

She and Bai Zhan had a nice chat last night. He seemed like a decent guy so she felt bad going back on their arrangement now.

Glancing at their joined hands, Bai Zhan mused wryly, “So...should I be under the car instead of here?”

“I really am sorry.”

Bai Zhan looked to Xiao Zimo. He had rather liked Xiao Han's straightforward personality during their chat and was even considering pursuing her seriously.

Yet not even a day later, she was here holding hands with another man!

Naturally, Bai Zhan felt a bit miffed.

“Where did he appear from in just one night?”

Just as Xiao Han moved to explain, Xiao Zimo suddenly replied, “One night is enough, no?”

Bai Zhan laughed mirthlessly, seemingly having imagined something untoward. “White Yichen always flaunts his relationship around me. Now his sister-in-law's friend wants to flash her affections too? You two are just...unforgivable!"

Hearing the name, Xiao Zimo's hostility faded somewhat. "White Yichen? How do you know him?"

"None of your business!" Annoyed, Bai Zhan got into his car. "Glut yourselves on your affectionate display! I'm leaving first!"

He drove off with a flip of his sunglasses.
