Xia Haitong looked at Ye Chengzhi a little blankly, as if he didn't hear what he just said.

He repeated the words again, and only then did Xia Haitong confirm that he had not heard it wrong just now.

But in the next second, she immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, she shook her head violently and said to Ye Chengzhi: "No, absolutely not!"

"Why?" Ye Chengzhi asked rhetorically.

"What, Chengzhi, do you know what your decision means?!"

Ye Chengzhi nodded: "I know, but I don't care, all I care about is ......"

"But I care!" Xia Haitong almost interrupted Ye Chengzhi's words by shouting, she looked at Ye Chengzhi who was a little surprised, don't look over her head and said slowly: "Chengzhi, I Xia Haitong owe you enough, I don't want to owe you anything more." I have nothing to say about the decision you made today if it was for yourself, but if it is for me, then please dispel this thought. ”

"Xiaotong, you don't owe me anything, everything is my willingness, I'm just ......"

"Enough Ye Chengzhi, are you annoyed! If I didn't understand enough before, I'll say it again today, I don't like you, I haven't liked you at all from before to now!!"

Xia Haitong looked very impatient, she knew that she must have broken Ye Chengzhi's heart like this, but she couldn't help it, if she didn't do this, how could he die to himself?

But what Xia Haitong didn't expect was that instead of getting angry, Ye Chengzhi smiled softly and said to her: "I know, but it's okay, I can wait for you." ”

Xia Haitong looked at Ye Chengzhi in a daze, how many times did he say this sentence to himself? And how many times did he be moved by this sentence?

She lowered her eyes, not daring to look at the man in front of her, she didn't dare, she really didn't dare!

Ye Chengzhi didn't force her to face herself, they were just silent with each other.

Time passed minute by minute, and it was not until the sky was getting dark that Xia Haitong raised his head and said, "Chengzhi, there are some things I must tell you." ”

Without waiting for Ye Chengzhi to speak, she added: "If after hearing all this, you still insist on today's decision, then I won't stop you again." ”

Ye Chengzhi nodded, and Xia Haitong told everything Li Siqin had done, what Ye Chengxuan had done to her parents, and even the existence of Lei Ming.

The sunset put away the last rays of light, and the night shrouded the two of them, as soon as Xia Haitong finished speaking, Ye Chengzhi immediately said to her: "I didn't expect Si Qin to be such a person, and I didn't expect the eldest brother to do anything to get you to ......" He bowed slightly, and said guiltily, "Xiaotong, I'm really sorry for making you suffer so many grievances, I'm sorry!"

Xia Haitong was stunned for a moment: "Chengzhi, this is none of your business at all, you don't need to apologize to me." ”

Ye Chengzhi shook his head: "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be implicated in this, in the final analysis, I tired you and your family." ”

Xia Haitong looked at Ye Chengzhi, at this moment, she had an indescribable feeling. She really wanted to ask the heavens, how good must this man in front of her be before he is willing to give up?

In this way, he will definitely not change his original intention.

As soon as Xia Haitong finished thinking about it, Ye Chengzhi's next sentence confirmed her thoughts.

"Xiaotong, as long as I give up the position of president, everything can be solved perfectly, can you understand my decision?"

Xia Haitong sighed secretly, shook his head, and said, "I told you at the beginning, so I won't persuade you anymore." But......" she held his hand, her eyes firm, "but I want you to promise me one thing. ”

"I promise you. He replied without hesitation.

Xia Haitong smiled and said, "Let me stay by your side and learn how to love someone." ”

As soon as the words fell, Ye Chengzhi's brows furrowed, and he said, "Xiaotong, I said that you don't owe me anything, you don't need to do this." ”

Xia Haitong leaned his head on Ye Chengzhi's shoulder, and said slowly: "Chengzhi, I don't want to stay by your side because I feel that I owe you anything, I was moved by you, do you understand?" She paused slightly, and said, "Do you know, there is a question I have been asking myself, there are so many excellent men like you, there are so many women who are hundreds of times better than me waiting for you to choose them, but why don't you want any of them, but you like such an ordinary me?"

In fact, she thought about the last half of the sentence for a long time before deciding to say it, because she felt that there were some things that she still had to ask to understand. And this is also the last concern in her heart, the last defense.

She raised her eyes to look at Ye Chengzhi, but just when he wanted to say something with his lips pursed, she snatched it.

"I've asked you this question before, but I think the answer you gave me was the same as if you didn't. What is called 'because it's you, I will like it', this answer is so profound, I don't understand, I really don't understand. ”

Xia Haitong's eyes were full of longing, as if he was expecting his answer.

Ye Chengzhi raised his head slightly, looked at the stars in the sky, and seemed to have some memories in his eyes: "Xiaotong, do you know what love at first sight is?"

Xia Haitong nodded, but said, "But I don't believe in love at first sight." ”

"But it does exist. After a slight pause, he looked down at Xia Haitong and said, "I am exactly like this to you." ”

Although Ye Chengzhi said sincerely, Xia Haitong still asked anxiously: "But why me instead of A, B, C, and D?"

"There are not so many whys in love, and if you can tell why, it is not love. ”

His words were still full of sincerity, she also knew how good Ye Chengzhi was to her, and she also understood that feelings were the most unreasonable, but her heart was still not steady, and she still felt very empty.

Perhaps because she likes to read detectives, she only believes in cause and effect. Love at first sight is beautiful, but it is like a beautiful fairy tale to her, just a fairy tale.

Just when she was hesitating, Ye Chengzhi's arms had firmly locked her in his arms. He whispered in her ear......

If you still can't believe in this beauty, then let me spend my life proving that fairy tales can also exist in the world.

At the end, he humbly added: If you want.

His words reached her ears and into her heart, and for a moment, all the worries in her heart disappeared.

She also hugged him and said to him firmly: I do.

The shadows of the two overlapped under the starry sky, and their lips also overlapped, a little shy, a little lingering.

After the kiss, the two sat next to each other, and then Xia Haitong suddenly asked with a worried face: "Chengzhi, when do you plan to resign, do you plan to cut this matter first, or explain it to your mother first?"

Ye Chengzhi smiled slightly and said, "I have left the resignation letter on my desk at noon today, and it is estimated that it will be discovered tomorrow." ”

Xia Haitong's eyes widened: "You, you have thought about resigning a long time ago, and you have written all the letters!" Wei pause, she said thoughtfully, "Why did you suddenly think of giving up the position of president to Ye Chengxuan?"

"Actually, I wanted to return the position of president to my eldest brother for a long time, but I hesitated when I thought of my mother, and I couldn't make this decision until today. ”

"That means that in fact, at the beginning, no matter what I say or do, your original intention will not change?" she rolled her eyes and snorted, "Wow Chengzhi, you even hid it from me, and you made me so moved just now, and now that I think about it, I was cheated by you." ”

Ye Chengzhi hurriedly explained: "Xiaotong, I didn't mean to, I didn't tell you in advance because I was afraid that you wouldn't agree, and then I ......."

Seeing Ye Chengzhi's nervous appearance, Xia Haitong snorted and laughed: "Okay, okay, you don't have to explain anything, I know what the reason for you is doing this." ”

Ye Chengzhi frowned and pondered, "Since this is the case, then why...... Why did you seem to be a little angry just now?"

Xia Haitong smiled and said as a matter of course: "That's what I did on purpose, who told you to hide something from me?" She took Ye Chengzhi's hand and said slowly, "Chengzhi, I know it's good for you to hide from me, but I'm not a three-year-old child anymore, I don't need so much protection, do you know what I want to say?"

Ye Chengzhi was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "Don't worry, no matter what I do in the future, I will discuss it with you first, and you will have something to hide from you." ”

Xia Haitong danced happily: "En!"

Neither of them went back to the city tonight, and to be exact, neither of them planned to return to the hustle and bustle of the city in the future.

Ye Chengzhi had already planned that his resignation should be discovered tomorrow, and then he would call Ye Chengxuan and ask him to release Xia Haitong's parents and sister, but he didn't plan to tell Ye Chengxuan everything Li Siqin had done.

First, he felt that Li Siqin had no reason not to let Xia Xueqing go, and secondly, although Li Siqin had done a lot of excessive things, he felt that all this was because she loved Ye Chengxuan too much, in the end, she was also a victim, in fact, Xia Haitong didn't want to have more trouble, since Ye Chengzhi had this idea, of course she agreed.

Xia Haitong said that after bringing her parents and sister back, she hoped to send her parents to a drug rehabilitation center first, and then take them back to live together after they got rid of drug addiction, and she didn't want Xia Xueqing to know about all this.

As for the place to live, Ye Chengzhi planned to live in the villa in the suburbs for a while, although Xia Haitong was worried that Ye Chengxuan would kill Ye Chengzhi, but he said that he believed that the eldest brother would not do this, and they would only live for a while, and then they would go to the countryside to live the quiet life she longed for.

They plan to hide for two or three years, live some simple life, and when the overall situation is decided, Ye Chengzhi will go home and plead guilty, he said that he will bring Xia Haitong at this time, because he wants to introduce Wang Defang to his future daughter-in-law.

Xia Haitong said that he was worried that his mother would resolutely oppose them being together, and Ye Chengzhi said that there would be obstacles at the beginning, but as long as they were determined and sincere enough, he believed that his mother would not oppose them.

Xia Haitong is certainly not as optimistic as Ye Chengzhi, but his black and white crane eyes let her see the future.

However, under the same starry sky, another woman was not as lucky as her.
