Chapter 227: Showdown
Bear everything for him?
When Yan Ziqi heard this, she suddenly laughed at herself in her heart, is she too old to keep up with this era? Why can young people nowadays speak so wildly?
Suddenly, Yan Ziqi felt that today's conversation with Lan Xiaotian should be a meaningless waste of time.
"Miss Lan, I don't think there's any need for us to continue. For the sake of today's two cups of coffee, I will finally tell you that the success of the good man you like may be the result of a woman's bruises, and his goodness has nothing to do with you, and you are not qualified to sit back and enjoy In fact, a good man is cultivated by himself, not robbed. β
After saying this, Yan Ziqi opened her mobile phone and scanned the QR code on the table, and after paying the bill, she left.
Lan Xiaotian sat alone in the coffee shop, looking at Yan Ziqi's back through the huge glass window, she felt very uncomfortable.
*
Lan Xiaotian came home, as soon as she opened the door, Cheng Jie greeted her, "Xiaotian, you're back, don't be angry, okay? I need your support now." β
Cheng Jie took Lan Xiaotian's hand, his eyes flashed brightly, and the anticipation in his eyes was difficult to hide.
Lan Xiaotian slowly withdrew her hand from Cheng Jie's palm, and at the same time she spit out the words that she had been hiding in her heart and didn't dare to say.
"Cheng Jie, let's break up. β
Parted?
Cheng Jie was stunned in place, his pale face was full of surprise, "Xiaotian, are you okay?" I know I was wrong, but we really won't break up, you listen to me, it's my fault for signing up without your consent, but I don't think this matter is really the direct reason for us to break up." Seven years of affection, how can you say that you can let it go?"
"I'm sorry, Cheng Jie, I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I don't think we're really suitable. β
"Fart! Lan Xiaotian, do you know what you're talking about? It's not appropriate? Are you just like that? After talking about it for seven years, you told me that it was not appropriate, what did you do before?"
Cheng Jie's jumping feet like this are naΓ―ve in Lan Xiaotian's eyes, he is a child who doesn't grow up, the more he peesters her like this, the more annoying he becomes, he will make comparisons in his heart, and he will think of Ji Hangcheng.
"Cheng Jie, can you be more mature, do you know that I'm really tired with you, I feel like my mother, I have to participate in everything you do, I really don't understand why I'm so tired, what I want is a man who can take care of me, take care of me, and teach me how to grow, you know?"
Lan Xiaotian's refusal made Cheng Jie realize that the incident in front of her was not that she was playing a temper and making trouble.
Cheng Jie forced himself to calm down, he didn't want to break up, he didn't want to lose Lan Xiaotian, they had experienced so much that they couldn't say sink when they were close to the other side of happiness.
"Whew-" Cheng Jie took a deep breath.
"Xiaotian, let's all calm down, you listen to me, now we are all angry, and a lot of things we say are irrational, I know that you are reluctant to let me go, and so am I, let's not break up, okay? You're angry that I'm going to participate in the competition, okay, if you really care, I can not go, I'll go to the lawyer's exam, it's okay. β
Cheng Jie's concession started to have the slightest effect on Lan Xiaotian, and she thought that if she didn't like someone else now, maybe she could try to forgive Cheng Jie.
But not now, she has no way to accept all of Cheng Jie's shortcomings, and even she can turn a blind eye to his advantages.
How can you have a good relationship in such a state?
"No, no, no, Cheng Jie, no, it's not like this, I really have no way to be with you. β
Lan Xiaotian is reluctant to tell the truth because he doesn't want to discredit this relationship, why did he talk about it for so long, if it is because one of the parties is mentally cheating, then it is really a blasphemy of this relationship.
Lan Xiaotian pushed Cheng Jie away, she rushed into the bedroom and took out a silver-gray suitcase from a wardrobe, she opened the box and stuffed her clothes and her personal belongings into the box.
"Xiaotian, Xiaotian, I beg you not to do this, okay? I know it's wrong. β
Cheng Jie followed into the bedroom from the outside, and he grabbed Lan Xiaotian's hand to prevent her from making the next move.
"Xiaotian, I know that I have disappointed you, but I promise that this is the last time, I will definitely read hard in the future, and I will work hard to get a lawyer's license. β
Until now, the innocent Cheng Jie hadn't reacted, and Lan Xiaotian's decision to leave was because of other men.
β...β
"Enough, Cheng Jie, I'm really fed up. Listen, I'm not breaking up with you because I'm disappointed in you because I'm in love with other men, someone I can't get like stars in the sky, you know!"
Lan Xiaotian snatched the clothes in Cheng Jie's hand and threw them in the suitcase.
β...β
Tick tick, tick tick, time passed minute by minute, Cheng Jie just stood dumbfounded like a marionette whose soul had been drained.
Lan Xiaotian looked at Cheng Jie, she knew that she had hurt him, but there was no way, the relationship was that one of the parties had to play the role of a victim.
"Cheng Jie, I didn't want to say it, but you have to force me, so I can only tell the truth, and now I only want you
Be able to get out as soon as possible. β
What Lan Xiaotian said, Cheng Jie turned a deaf ear, he immersed himself in his own world and locked the door of his heart.
"Cheng Jie?"
β...β
"Cheng Jie?"
β...β
Lan Xiaotian shouted a few words Cheng Jie didn't react, and in the end she also lost her patience, when a person is the most ruthless, and when he has no desire, no thoughts and no love.
She stopped looking at Cheng Jie and began to organize her things again.
It wasn't until she finished packing and was about to leave with her suitcase that Cheng Jie spoke.
"Is it the chairman of the Ji family?"
Lan Xiaotian didn't react at first, she looked at Cheng Jie in confusion and asked, "What did you say?"
"Bang dang!"
As soon as Lan Xiaotian's voice fell, suddenly, there was a loud bang in the air!
Cheng Jie kicked Lan Xiaotian's suitcase to the ground.
"I'm fucking asking you, is that man the chairman of the Ji family???"
Cheng Jie's eyes were red, tears flooded his eyes, and his vision became blurred.
Lan Xiaotian bit his lip and admitted this fact after confirming that Cheng Jie would not hurt himself.
"Yes, it's him, I'm sorry Cheng Jie, I didn't know what the ideal partner I should be looking for before, until I met him, I understood that what I wanted to find should be a man who could take care of me and cover me from all the wind and rain. β
"Then I can too! Lan Xiaotian, I can!"
Cheng Jie was anxious to defend himself.
"You can? What can you do? You haven't earned a penny since you graduated from school. Not motivated, indulging in those unrealistic dreams all day long, always feeling that I can become famous overnight. Not only that, but you are also impulsive, and our marriage fund will be squandered when you say it. Also, where were you when I was trampled and ravaged by others? You can't save me from the dire straits, so why should I play and pay my feelings for you?"
Lan Xiaotian said and tears flowed out, "Cheng Jie, it's been seven years, and the youth and time I have paid for you for so many years can also offset my mistakes, right?"
Cheng Jie stood in place, his hands and feet were cold, at this moment, he suddenly remembered a TV series he had watched, "Snail House", he felt that he was the man who was cuckolded in it.
"Lan Xiaotian, you said that I can't stand up to the sky and the earth, and I can't shelter you from the wind and rain, do you think it's all my fault? Let me ask you, when I just graduated, I obviously had a lot of opportunities, who beat me to death with a stick? It was you and my mother, right? You spoiled me like this, and in the end, you have to blame me for not being able to support Adou, do you think it's fair?"
β...β
Lan Xiaotian was silent.
Cheng Jie was crazy, he took a step forward, held Lan Xiaotian's shoulders tightly with both hands, and roared softly: "You speak! You fucking talk to me!"
Lan Xiaotian shook her head desperately, and she pushed Cheng Jie away.
"I don't want to say, what do you want me to say? Cheng Jie, I'm so disappointed in you. β
Dropping this sentence, Lan Xiaotian left, she took the elevator and went downstairs without breathing, and a cold wind hit her when she walked out of the corridor.
Lan Xiaotian sniffed, and finally cried uncontrollably, she didn't regret it, it was a matter of time before she broke up with Cheng Jie, even if Ji Hangcheng didn't appear, she would find that Cheng Jie was not suitable for her in the future. fate
Therefore, now Lan Xiaotian is glad that he did not recognize the facts after marrying Cheng Jie.
Of course. She also knew that it was impossible for herself and Ji Hangcheng, she didn't think about sabotage, of course, there may be a moment when her mind is not clear, but most of the time she can still control herself.
Lan Xiaotian cried in the cold wind for more than an hour, she had figured out a lot of things in the past few days, and she also knew how to go next.
Lan Xiaotian is actually really grateful to Dong Qiyang, it was he who let her know that there was a good man named Ji Hangcheng in this world, so that she was fortunate to get along with him for a while, and also made her understand that he was her ideal partner.
Lan Xiaotian cried bitterly in the bleak cold wind for more than an hour, and that night, she felt as if she had suddenly grown up...
The next day, Lan Xiaotian took a taxi from the hotel to the Institute of Psychology, because he cried for too long last night, his two eyes were swollen today.
As soon as he entered the office, Lu Jian immediately cared about her like this: "Oh, Xiaotian, what's wrong with these eyes?"
"It's okay, leader, I have something to tell you. β
"Okay, okay, come to my office. β
"Bang..."
As soon as the office door closed, Lu Jian couldn't wait to open his chatterbox, "Xiao God, how are you doing? Are you still happy working in our office? Is the Ji Group okay? I could see that day, your relationship with him is quite unusual, you see that you are so beautiful and capable..."
"Leader!"
Lu Jian's words and then Lan Xiaotian couldn't listen to it anymore, she knew what he was going to say.
"Leader, I'm here today to hand in my resignation letter. β
Lan Xiaotian said and took out a letter of resignation from his bag, "Please approve it." β
"This..."
Lu Jian looked at the resignation letter on the table, confused.
"Why quit if you did a good job?"
"Because I'm leaving Shencheng. β
Yes, this is the decision Lan Xiaotian made after crying in the cold wind for an hour last night, she doesn't want to stay in this city anymore, because there are too many bad things.
For example, she broke up with Cheng Jie, she spent seven years of youth to commemorate this love, and all her beautiful fantasies turned into bubbles.
Also, Ji Hangcheng, Lan Xiaotian knew that she was impossible with him, so she was determined to leave the city and stay away from the man who made her out of reach.
"Why did you leave Shencheng? Aren't you still going to settle down here?"
Lu Jian's retention was not because of Lan Xiaotian, what he valued was because of the bond she could attach to Ji's climbing.
"Oh my God, did something happen. You speak well, speak up, I can try to help you. β
In the face of Lu Jian's kindness, Lan Xiaotian refused, "Thank you leader, that's it, I will hand over all the work to Sister Huang in the next two days, thank you for taking care of me for so many years, thank you!"
After Lan Xiaotian said this, he left without looking back, leaving Lu Jian with a confused face, he thought, as soon as this little girl leaves, will she even lose the business with the Ji Group?
It's over!
But looking at Lan Xiaotian's resolute look, Lu Jian also understood that he didn't seem to be able to do anything else except accept this resignation letter.
Lan Xiaotian came out of the Institute of Psychology and took a taxi directly to the Ji Group, because she also had business to hand over there, and before leaving, she selfishly wanted to meet the man who was like the brightest star in the sky to herself.
When she arrived at Ji's Group, Lan Xiaotian first handed over the business with the people in the personnel department, and after doing those trivial things, she went upstairs to the chairman's office.
When Ji Hangcheng saw Lan Xiaotian, his expression immediately became displeased, and then he directly called Cheng Yuanwan in.
"Secretary Cheng, how do you manage it? Is it that my place has now become a place where any idle person can come and go freely?"
Cheng Yuanwan glanced at Lan Xiaotian with some embarrassment when she heard this.
"Secretary Cheng!"
"I'm sorry, Chairman, I..."
"Ji Hangcheng, you don't have to be like this, I just came today to say a few words to you alone, don't worry, I won't trouble you!"
Lan Xiaotian took the initiative to stand up for Cheng Yuanwan to relieve the siege.
Ji Hangcheng was speechless, he felt that he had created something, why was it so difficult to live a life of peace?
Why did he go a Lu Xuan, and there would be another Lan Xiaotian, what does he feel about now is that this woman is like he went to the supermarket to shop, and the shopping guide had to give him a gift, but he had to pay for something that was completely useless.
Yes, that's the feeling, it's disgusting.
Ji Hangcheng waved his hand at Cheng Yuanwan, he knew that if he didn't let Lan Xiaotian "play" her eloquence today, it was estimated that this matter would not be passable.
"Okay, Chairman!"
After Cheng Yuanwan left, there was a brief silence between Ji Hangcheng and Lan Xiaotian.
β...β
It wasn't until Ji Hangcheng felt that it would be a boring waste of time to continue like this, that he spoke first: "Miss Lan, since you are here, it proves that you have something to say to me, just say what you want, everyone's time is precious, don't waste it like this, okay?"
Lan Xiaotian heard the impatience between Ji Hangcheng's words, "Are you so impatient with me?"
"What? I'm impatient with you? No, Miss Lan, this logic is very problematic, why should I be patient with you? Who are you?"
The current Ji Hangcheng's tone of speech is very similar to when he was twenty years old and was still a son, but he felt very uncomfortable, not at all the calm kind of chairman of the board.
Lan Xiaotian frowned, "Why are you like this?"
Ji Hangcheng didn't care, he leaned back in the chair lazily, crossed his hands behind his head, and looked at Lan Xiaotian with a playful expression, "I've always been like this, everyone has shortcomings, and I'm the same, don't imagine me too perfect." β
Lan Xiaotian heard the meaning of Ji Hangcheng's words, she smiled self-deprecatingly, and then said: "You don't have to be like this, I didn't come today to pester you, I came to say goodbye to you, don't worry." β
"Oh, Miss Lan is doing this too much, what is our relationship, we don't need this sense of ritual to say goodbye here. β
Since Lan Xiaotian came in, every word Ji Hangcheng said was thorny, and people's hearts were made of flesh and would be hurt.
Lan Xiaotian is the same, especially when he is hurt like this by the person he likes.
"Ji Hangcheng, can you not talk to me like this, I just like you, I didn't do anything hurtful, I didn't destroy you, I just wanted to express my feelings, is this wrong?"
Lan Xiaotian walked in front of Ji Hangcheng, crying pear blossoms with rain, "I don't want to do this either, but I can't control it." β
"Enough, Miss Lan, don't say anything superfluous, liking me is your business, you don't need to tell me, but now you tell me, it's your fault that it affects my mood. If you're going to say these innocuous things next, I don't think there's any need to go on, it's a waste of time!"
Ji Hangcheng also blew up, he felt that this woman was sick in the brain, and she was moaning about her feelings all day long, I had never seen anything like this.
"Yes! Ji Hangcheng I have something to say, I'm leaving Shencheng, I want to see you before leaving, you know? I broke up with my boyfriend, and I can't be with you, so I chose to leave, I really don't mean anything else, I said the same thing when I saw your wife that day!"
Ji Hangcheng didn't listen to a word in the first half of the sentence, but in the last sentence, he immediately lifted his mind as if he had been electrocuted.
"You went to see my wife???"
"You don't have to be so excited, she wants to see me too, of course it's not all about you, but also about her lending money to my boyfriend. β
The more Ji Hangcheng listened, the more confused he became, "Who is your boyfriend?"
"Cheng Jie!"
Cheng Jie? Ji Hangcheng's mind began to recall, he vaguely remembered that the bodyguard used to tell him that Yan Ziqi had been in contact with a little boy a few times, so that person was Lan Xiaotian's boyfriend Cheng Jie?
Seeing that Ji Hangcheng didn't speak, Lan Xiaotian continued.
"With the encouragement of your wife, Cheng Jie took me and his marriage fund to sign up for the draft, and not only that, but your wife also lent him money, and I felt that this matter was a harm to me, so I went to find her. β
There is something wrong with what Lan Xiaotian said, Cheng Jie went to participate in the competition because of his own wishes, which had nothing to do with Yan Ziqi, but because she didn't understand this matter in depth, it was normal to say the wrong thing.
