Chapter 171: Estrangement
Everything was ready, Xie Yutang brought the store deed exchanged from Yan Mar'er and went directly to visit Chi Mansion.
"Master, there is a person named Xie Yutang from outside." After hearing the maids' report, Chi Fangrui was silent. How could this Xie Yutang come to his house in a dignified manner. However, the other party's identity is suppressed, how can Chi Fangrui not welcome it.
Chi Xia also heard that Xie Yutang was coming, she was very happy in her heart, now that Chi Wan is so down, if she wants to live better than her, Xie Yutang is a good choice.
She hurriedly chose a beautiful and figure-showing dress for herself, and asked the maid to put on a light makeup, and when she rushed out, she happened to see her father waiting at the door.
When Chi Fangrui saw Chi Xia, he had no choice but to let her follow him, to be honest, their Chi family was the power of the prince's side after all, and it was best not to be involved with Xie Yutang. However, his daughter's meaning is also obvious, and Chi Fangrui just wants to take one step at a time.
He stepped forward and saw Xie Yutang wearing a dark purple coat in high spirits, and when he thought of the prince's power now weakened, wasn't he the most proud?
Chi Fangrui put on a welcoming smile and said, "General Xie came to the Humble House today, and he didn't have much preparation below. ”
"See General Xie." Chi Xia also saluted, her every move was as soft as a willow, like a beautiful girl.
"No, no, no, I'm bothering you." Xie Yutang didn't notice Chi Xia at all, and he didn't even look at it.
He waved his hand, and someone handed over a bag of things, "This is the fresh Gusu Biluochun I got recently, I thought that Master Chi you are the most fond of tea, so I specially brought some." ”
Chi Fangrui is indeed a tea drinker, and after he happily accepted the gift, he said, "General Xie has bothered. ”
"I didn't expect General Xie to know that my father is a tea drinker," Chi Xia said, "Actually, I also love tea, presumably General Xie also understands tea, this Gu Su Biluochun is naturally good to drink at this season, why don't you let the maids make a cup now, how about the three of us drink together?" ”
Xie Yutang smiled awkwardly and said, "Thank you Miss Chi for your kindness, it's just that I have other things to do this time." Master Chi, may I ask if Miss Chi Wan is not in the house? ”
"Yes," Chi Fangrui knew that the other party was looking for Chi Wan, and he was really guessed now, after all, Xie Yutang was interested in Chi Wan before Mu Zhufeng, "Why don't you go to the side hall and wait for a while, I'll let the next person call her over." ”
"Then there is Master Lao Chi!"
Now Chi Xia Ke is not lightly angry, what's the matter, obviously Chi Wan has just been divorced, so she is in a hurry to come over to see her and comfort her! I don't get close to such a good self, so I have to get together with that second-hand one!
Hum! Chi Xia simply brushed his sleeves and left, hiding in his room and sulking.
Thinking of seeing Chi Wan soon, Xie Yutang didn't mention how excited he was, looking at the deed in his hand, he wondered how Chi Wan would praise himself?
"Thank you Yutang, I didn't expect you to recapture Fenghetang for me, you are so powerful." Xie Yutang imagined all kinds of pictures of Chi Wan admiring himself in his mind, and he even smirked unconsciously.
In the eyes of Xie Yutang's subordinates, he is now like a loyal dog begging his master to pet, and they didn't expect that his master would have such a side, which can be regarded as an eye-opener. Fortunately, there are no outsiders here now, otherwise it would be a shame.
Hearing the slight footsteps outside, Xie Yutang hurriedly sat upright, only to see a pink dress, embroidered shoes, and a slender figure appeared at the door. It was Chi Wan, she pulled a simple bun, and wore a beaded hairpin, and her hair hung lazily on both sides, like a beauty.
It's just that Xie Yutang always felt that Chi Wan had lost a lot of weight, and there was no light in her eyes, she was very frustrated, just like those candidates who failed the list outside, and she couldn't keep her spirits up.
"Wan'er......" Seeing Chi Wan's appearance, Xie Yutang was a little worried, even the way she walked was delicate and weak, trembling and falling down in a second, "Wan'er, what's wrong with you, are you sick?" ”
"No," Chi Wan refused categorically, "what did you come to me for?" ”
"Can't I come to your house to visit you?" Xie Yutang asked rhetorically, "I also know that Mu Zhufeng has divorced his wife, and I am worried that you will come over to take a look." ”
As soon as she heard Mu Zhufeng's words, Chi Wan's face darkened again. In the past few days, she has locked herself in her room every day, but she still thinks of Mu Zhufeng from time to time, and even dreams of him.
Although he is considered his enemy, Chi Wan also abides by his moral bottom line, and this time he crossed the Lei Chi, which is undoubtedly a kind of mental torture for her, and she still can't forgive herself for doing those excessive things to Mu Zhufeng.
Seeing that Chi Wan's face was getting worse and worse, Xie Yutang stood up anxiously and walked to her side, seeing that she was sweating a little and hurriedly asked, "Chi Wan, are you okay, do you want me to call a doctor?" ”
Chi Wan waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's just that there is something on your mind." Because of this concern, she didn't eat much for almost a day, and sometimes she would wake up in the middle of the night with nightmares, so she was not in a state.
"What's on your mind?" Xie Yutang asked.
Ji Wan hesitated for a moment and replied, "Yes...... Mt. Mu. ”
Hearing this, Xie Yutang only felt that his heart ached. He never thought that Chi Wan, who could torture, would become such a sick person, and it would be that Mu Zhufeng!
"Do you know that Mu Zhufeng murdered the prince and sent him to prison," Chi Wan reluctantly took a sip of tea and felt very bitter, "Actually, I was more or less involved in this matter, but I was too much, and he was punished like this by the prince because of me." ”
Chi Wan couldn't help it, but in Xie Yutang's view, it was her longing and reluctance for her husband.
"This divorced wife...... Didn't you tell him? ”
"No, it's probably because he doesn't want to implicate me, so he used this method to cut off the relationship between me and him."
Chi Wan touched her heart, she really couldn't stand Mu Zhufeng, all this was not the result she wanted at all. She wanted to save it, but she couldn't do anything about it, and she didn't know what to do.
The whole process was complicated, not to mention that there was Xie Yutang's entourage on the spot, and Chi Wan also guessed that Chi Fangrui had some eyeliner by his side, so he didn't dare to say anything.
But because of the simplicity of what he said, Xie Yutang wanted to be crooked. He has discovered now that Chi Wan has affection for Mu Zhufeng! Whether it was the long-term love or the impact of Mu Zhufeng's behavior on her, Xie Yutang only knew that Chi Wan had never shown such an expression to herself.
affectionate, her eyes flow, like a vast star, but none of the stars is herself; Sad, her eyes drooped slightly, and her reddish eyes were pitiful, but these tears were not shed for herself; Blaming herself, she bit her lower lip lightly, and deeply reflected on her mistakes in her heart, but the source of all these mistakes was because of love, love for Mu Zhufeng.
Xie Yutang couldn't bear to look at Chi Wan like this again, because now her smile and every emotion came from Mu Zhufeng. It seems that even if she is divorced, her heart has already remained in Mu Zhufeng's body, and she has no chance.
Xie Yutang was also very sad, he only felt that his whole person was bitter now, and all the original good expectations and hopes were disappointed, leaving only the embarrassment between the two confrontations.
He pulled out the deed of Fenghetang from his cuff and placed it on the table next to Chi Wan.
"I've already asked for Fenghetang from Yan Mar's side, and I originally wanted to make you happy, but I think you have no intention of managing this store now."
"Whatever you do with it now, it's what belongs to you." At this time, Xie Yutang left Chi Wan's last sentence before leaving, Chi Wan was shocked, she looked at the store deed she had signed with Yan Mar before, and her heart was sour.
She never imagined that Xie Yutang would give herself such a big gift, Chi Wan pinched the thin pieces of paper, and felt that the affection in them was heavy.
Fenghetang is not just a store for the two, from the beginning of the takeover, to the end to be able to create such a brilliant Fenghetang, it is the result of the joint efforts of the two.
He helped her arrange customer sources, publicity, and even used his connections to help her invite senior people to guide, if it weren't for his help, Chi Wan would not have achieved this store in the streets and alleys of civilization now.
Xie Yutang leaned against the wall outside, and he let out a long breath at the clear sky. I almost couldn't hold back my pent-up emotions just now, but fortunately I came out in time.
He peeked at Chi Wan, who was in a daze inside, and only peeked at it and then stopped looking. He covered his eyes with one palm and smiled self-deprecatingly.
Compared to Mu Zhufeng, what I did was nothing. Chi Wan, where do you put me in your heart, and what kind of existence do I have for you?
Xie Yutang asked himself, in my heart, Chi Wan, you are a very important person, not only because you saved my life, I admire you, admire you, and even fall in love with you.
And for me, this Fenghetang is like a testimony of love between us, whether it is the joint efforts of you and me when I first started, every day and night spent in it, or the time when you took me in when I was killed.
I think about those experiences now, didn't you do it because you loved me? If you have someone else in mind, why would you do these things to me?
Xie Yutang advised himself: That's it, it's all in the past, don't think about it anymore, there is no point at all......
