Since the harm is inevitable, at least, it can be done above board, thinking of this, he decided to ask Furong to come out and talk openly and honestly.

After this round of performances of the troupe, Su Ze called Shangguan Furong and asked her if she was free to sit together at night.

Shangguan Furong said happily: "Okay! ”

Su Ze said: "Then go to the western restaurant in Xiyuan." ”

Shangguan Furong replied, "Okay".

After work, both of them arrived as scheduled, Su Ze asked Shangguan Furong what she wanted to eat, Shangguan Furong smiled and said, "Look, I can do anything."

Su Ze then ordered two steaks, a sizzling squid, a plate of vegetable salad, an oxtail soup and coffee.

Facing Shangguan Furong, Su Ze didn't know how to speak, with a smirk on his face, he finally mustered up the courage to say: "My parents suggested that we get married, what do you think?" ”

Shangguan Furong listened, with a sweet and shy smile on her face, and said softly: "You decide, I'll listen to you." ”

Su Ze thought that her next words might be unpleasant, so she smiled gently and said, "Well, eat first." ”

After the meal, Shangguan Furong took a sip of coffee, and Su Zefang said: "You also know that our family's business is in trouble and we urgently need your family's money to tide over the difficulties, even so, you don't mind, are you still willing to marry me?" ”

Shangguan Furong smiled: "I don't understand the business thing, but I think it's a matter of two companies, and it has nothing to do with our relationship, what do you think?" ”

Su Ze smiled perfunctorily and said, "Yes." After a pause, he added: "When I was in the United States, my mother called me and asked me if I would like to be engaged to you, and I agreed without hesitation, do you know why?" ”

"Why?" Shangguan Furong's face turned crimson, and she looked at him expectantly and asked.

"Because of this." Su Ze took out a handkerchief embroidered with lotus flowers from his pocket and said, "When I was ten years old, I fell down on a bicycle and made a cut in my leg, and you took out this handkerchief to bandage me. ”

Shangguan Furong's face flushed slightly, and she smiled shyly: "But I can't remember it at all." ”

Su Ze shook his handkerchief and said, "Don't you remember this?" ”

Shangguan Furong smiled: "I don't remember, I have used such a handkerchief." ”

Su Ze was a little disappointed and said, "You were still young at that time, and you may have no memory. After a pause, he added, "When I returned to China, I found that the reality was different from what I imagined. ”

When Shangguan Furong heard this, she said vigilantly, "What do you mean? ”

Su Ze smiled helplessly and said: "You are not what I imagined, you and the Furong in my memory, there is no similarity, I don't know if it's me or the years that are wrong." ”

Shangguan Furong stared at him with wide eyes in astonishment, unable to say a word.

Su Ze continued: "But the situation is forced, I am still engaged to you, I admit that my company is now in urgent need of your family's money to save the emergency, and I don't want my parents' hard work for more than 20 years to be ruined, but I still feel that it is necessary to tell you the truth, and then it is up to you to decide, whether we want to get married or not." ”

These words were completely unexpected by Shangguan Furong, and she said expectantly: "So, you want to say that you don't love me and don't want to marry me?" ”

Su Ze bowed his head and said nothing.

Shangguan Furong looked at him in confusion for a long time, and then said, "You just said that it is up to me to decide whether we want to get married or not, is it okay?" ”

Su Ze lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Count." ”

"Okay, remember what you said!" After Shangguan Furong finished speaking, she picked up her bag and walked out.

Su Ze shouted "Furong", but did not chase it.

He is conflicted in his heart - out of true affection, he wants to end their relationship; For the sake of his parents, he hopes that the marriage can be successful.

Shangguan Furong got out of the restaurant and got into the car, drove all the way home, and walked to the door, but she was distraught and didn't want to go in, so she turned the car around and went to Fan Xiaohui's house.

Fan Xiaohui was watching TV at home when she heard a knock on the door, walked to the door and asked "who".

Shangguan Furong said: "Me! ”

Fan Xiaohui heard that it was Furong's voice, so she opened the door and said with a smile: "Why did you come here so late?" ”

After Shangguan Furong entered the house, she threw herself into her arms without saying a word.

Fan Xiaohui was stunned: "What's wrong? ”

Shangguan Furong Fang let go of her, sat down on the sofa, and said, "I just finished eating with Su Ze." ”

When Fan Xiaohui heard the word "Su Ze", her heart tightened, and she sat down beside her and asked, "What did you say, your behavior is so abnormal." ”

Shangguan Furong lowered her head and said: "He said that I am different from what he imagined, but his family's company really needs my family's money, and it is up to me to decide whether to get married or not." ”

Fan Xiaohui was surprised: "What does he mean by this?" ”

Shangguan Furong said: "What he means is that he doesn't like me that much, but for the sake of money, he can marry me if I want." ”

Fan Xiaohui listened and was speechless.

Shangguan Furong raised her head, looked at her and said, "Xiaohui, what do you say I should do?" ”

Fan Xiaohui looked at her in a daze, not knowing how to answer, after a long time, Fang lowered his head and said, "This is related to the happiness of your life, you can decide for yourself." ”

Shangguan Furong said: "Even if he says he doesn't like me so much, my love for him hasn't diminished a bit, I really can't do it if I give up on him!" ”

Fan Xiaohui was still speechless.

Shangguan Furong asked again: "You say, after getting along day and night after marriage, will he slowly fall in love with me?" ”

Fan Xiaohui lowered her head and whispered, "Maybe." ”

Shangguan Furong said happily: "So, I can gamble, didn't someone say that marriage is a gamble?" ”

Fan Xiaohui said "yes", and her voice was small.

Shangguan Furong said again: "Su Ze is talented, good-looking and rich, and there are a lot of women who like him, as long as he is willing to marry me, I will be satisfied, and I don't care about anything else." ”

"But ......," Fan Xiaohui said worriedly.

Shangguan Furong saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, so she asked, "But what is it?" ”

Fan Xiaohui smiled disguisedly and said, "It's nothing, it's good if you're happy." ”

Shangguan Furong said happily: "Hmm." After speaking, he said, "When I first heard him say this, I was very distressed, and I drove to the door of my house, and then turned around and came to you, and I talked to you, and I quickly figured it out." ”

Fan Xiaohui forced a smile and said: "No wonder I didn't even have a phone call in the middle of the night, so I suddenly came here." ”

Shangguan Furong smiled: "Oops! I can't tell you, I have to go, and if I don't go back, my parents will be worried. ”

Fan Xiaohui said: "Okay, slow down on the road." ”

Sending Shangguan Furong away, Fan Xiaohui fell into an inexplicable sadness - if they got married, she would lose love; If they break up, Su Ze will be in trouble, and she doesn't want to see either of them.
