Chapter 28: The Jade Bracelet Shatters
The old house was renovated by Cheng Yi, everything was available, Xia Yan brought a cup of hot tea to Grandpa Zhao, and the two sat at the table and talked freely.
"Grandpa Zhao, over the years, you have taken care of this house alone, our Xia family is really sorry for you."
"Silly boy, where is it, I think that your grandfather Zhao and I were sold as coolies, if I hadn't met your grandfather, my old life would not have lived so long."
"No matter what, you have taken care of this house alone all these years, and Xia Yan must remember everything you have done to the Xia family."
"A few years ago, when your uncle just sold this house, it was really hard to live, every day someone came to measure and prepare to start demolition, and I couldn't get rid of it with a stick at that time. But later, I don't know if the conscience of the Cheng family found out or what, and said that if it is not demolished, it will not be demolished. ”
"Cheng's Group? The infighting in them is really strong. ”
"Later, just a few months ago, someone started to renovate the house, and I thought they were here to demolish it, but the young man told me that the house would not be demolished."
"Won't it be demolished?"
Xia Yan was a little surprised.
"Well, they said, this house is renovated and will be used to give it away, to give it to the sweetheart of their boss. I thought, their boss is quite old, after all, young people, who would like this kind of house. ”
"Giving it away?"
"Yes, I'll inquire again, this boss is only twenty-four or five years old, what do they call him Mr. Yi."
The cup in Xia Yan's hand almost slipped off, and her mind recalled what Cheng Yi said when she brought her to this house.
"I promise you, when you are healed, I will give you everything you want."
He said that he gave me everything I wanted, did he mean my grandmother's house?
"Yan girl, Yan girl, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm sorry, Grandpa Zhao, I'm distracted."
"It's okay, you're young, there's still a long time. Although we can't get back your grandmother's house, I think as long as they don't tear down this house, the ancestral inheritance of the Xia family will still be there, and one day, I believe that Yan Yatou will take it back! ”
"Grandpa Zhao, don't worry, I won't let people abuse my grandmother's house, I will definitely use my own efforts to get this house back."
Grandpa Zhao was very pleased.
But Xia Yan knew very well in her heart that she would not be able to take this house on her own strength in her lifetime, but even so, she would do everything she could to fight for it.
In Cheng Heng's private golf course, the assistant whispered in Cheng Heng's ear, and Cheng Heng put down the club that Cheng Heng had originally swung up, looking at the assistant incredulously.
"What? You said that Cheng Yi had already obtained the 'tangible cultural heritage certificate' of the old house? ”
"Yes, Mr. Heng."
"When?"
Cheng Heng was irritable with the club, his fingernails kept tapping the handle of the club.
"It was almost half a month ago."
"Half a month ago! You eat dry food! What are the spies around Cheng Yi doing, the news came out for half a month! Tease me! ”
Cheng Heng angrily threw the club on the ground and walked to the lounge without looking back.
"I'm sorry Mr. Heng, this is indeed our mistake."
"Didn't Cheng He react over there?"
"It seems that they had a big quarrel with Mr. Yi, and I don't know what they are going to do with Xia's villa for the time being."
Cheng Heng lowered his head and pondered for a while.
"Ask Xu Chuchu to come and play with me."
"Okay, Mr. Heng."
Xu Chuchu jumped up from the sofa excitedly when he received the news, you must know that Cheng Heng's private golf course is full of many high-level executives, and taking her to play means introducing her to her friends in disguise.
Dressed up carefully, Xu Chuchu came to the golf course.
Cheng Heng glanced at her and shook his head helplessly.
"You're going to play like this?"
"Can't you dress like this?"
Xu Chuchu glanced back at the others and found that the others were looking at him. Everyone else is dressed in casual clothes, but I am dressed in a puffy skirt.
"Let's go to the lounge."
Cheng Heng urged Xu Chuchu with some impatience.
Xu Chuchu didn't like these sports, although she was also a rich lady, but she only knew a rough idea of this, and today she was thinking about dressing up beautifully to give him a long face, but she was too hard.
Cheng Heng, who was in the lounge, drank the coffee in his hand, flipped through the magazines in his hand, and asked lightly:
"Have you been to see Xia Yan lately?"
Xu Chuchu didn't expect him to come up and ask about Xia Yan, so he was naturally a little unhappy in his heart.
"Why are you always Xia Yan Xia Yan, didn't you call me over today because you missed me?"
Cheng Heng took a deep breath, and his impatience was immediately suppressed. smiled slightly at Xu Chuchu, and said lightly:
"Didn't I tell you, people saved my life, and it's your best friend again, as my girlfriend, shouldn't you go to comfort others for me?"
"I know! Where will we go? ”
"Hurry up and go to Xia Yan's side, I still have something to do, I'll go back to accompany you in the evening."
"Okay then."
Looking at the back of Xu Chuchu walking away, Cheng Heng hooked his hand at the assistant.
"Think of a way ahead of time to get me rid of this woman."
"Mr. Heng, Miss Xu's family has a deep connection with Cheng's Group, and if you want to break up with her, I'm afraid it will make a big ......."
"So let you think, if she goes to Xia Yan's side today and can't get any more useful information, she will help me get rid of it immediately."
"Okay, Mr. Heng."
When Xia Yan left the old mansion and returned home, Xu Chuchu was waiting for her outside the door.
"Chuchu? What are you doing here? ”
Xia Yan greeted her with joy.
Xu Chuchu's deliberate smile seemed too unnatural, Xia Yan felt the estrangement at a glance, and the hand that originally wanted to hold her was hung in the air so awkwardly.
Xia Yan looked down for the key in her bag before opening the door for a long time.
"Come in, don't you have a spare key, open the door yourself and come in, it's cold outside."
"The key is back to you."
Xia Yan was stunned, looked up at Xu Chuchu, and when she met her determined eyes, Xia Yan reluctantly withdrew the key.
"I'll pour you a glass of water."
"No need."
Xia Yan's open leg stopped halfway, she turned around and asked lightly:
"You came to me today, is there something wrong?"
"Brother Heng told me that you saved his life, and he cares about your body, so I came to see you."
"I'm fine now."
"I know, I can see that you're recovering."
"So, is there anything else?"
"Where did you get the bracelet on your hand?"
Xia Yan frowned, not knowing how to answer her. If she had told her the truth, she would have been angry and jealous; If she didn't tell her the truth, she would still be angry and jealous when she went to investigate and found out that this bracelet was given by Mrs. Chu.
I really shouldn't have promised Cheng Heng to go to the drinking party in the first place.
Xu Chuchu looked at Xia Yan's silent and embarrassed appearance, and guessed that most of this bracelet was still related to Cheng Heng.
"If you don't speak, you just default to this thing having something to do with Brother Heng?"
"I'll give him back this bracelet, don't worry, it's just that I can't take it off now......"
"I knew it! Xia Yan, how can you do this! You know that Brother Heng and I are dating, why do you have to intervene again! ”
"I didn't! Chu Chu, listen to me, I have a hard time. ”
"Suffering? Can't you tell me what's going on? Do you have to go to my boyfriend? ”
"Chu Chu ......"
"Don't call me, you have to take off this bracelet today and return it to Brother Heng!"
Xia Yan had no choice but to go into the bathroom, even though her hands were covered with soap, the bracelet was still firmly clasped on Xia Yan's hand.
"I can't take it off."
"You just don't want to pay it back!"
Xu Chuchu grabbed Xia Yan's already red hand and slammed it on the edge of the pool, and the jade bracelet shattered in half like an angel with broken wings and fell to the ground.
"Xu Chuchu! You're crazy! ”
Xia Yan looked at the bracelet that was broken in half, and her whole person collapsed.
Now she has nothing, and she still owes Cheng Heng eight million in foreign debt, this priceless bracelet is broken, what should she do?
For a moment, she felt that the world was really too cruel to her, why did she have to torture her so much?
Xia Yan picked up the bracelet that was broken in half on the ground, and the tears of collapse could no longer be suppressed, she curled up to the side, sobbing wildly.
"What are you crying about! It's just a bracelet! You care so much about what Brother Heng gave you! I'm her real girlfriend, why are you crying here? ”
Xia Yan shook her head frantically, she was uncomfortable, not because of this bracelet at all, she cried, not because of Cheng Heng. She just felt that she and Xu Chuchu had known each other for so many years, and the relationship and trust between the two of them, in Xu Chuchu's eyes, might not be comparable to Cheng Heng's eyes and words.
She was really tired.
"Let's go."
Xia Yan said these three words tremblingly.
Xu Chuchu glanced at her with some uneasiness, and walked to the door without forgetting to turn around and warn:
"This bracelet was broken on your hand, you are not allowed to sue Brother Heng, rely on my head!"
Xia Yan shook her head again and again.
After Cheng Heng went home, he saw Xu Chuchu's unnatural appearance, and he had some doubts in his heart.
"Did you go to Xia Yan today, what happened?"
"Nope. Is Xia Yan looking for you? ”
Cheng Heng shook his head.
"Do you have something on your mind?"
"No, no, I just miss you."
"Oh, that's it, how about going to Xia Yan's talk today?"
"It's good, she's almost in good health, you don't have to worry."
"Didn't talk about anything else?"
"Nope."
Xu Chuchu's trance-like eyes throughout the whole process made Cheng Heng very concerned.
Cheng Heng's phone rang at this moment, and the caller ID turned out to be Xia Yan.
Cheng Heng glanced at Xu Chuchu and pressed the call button.
"Hello?"
"Cheng Heng? Are you free right now? ”
"Free."
"I want to see you, where are you?"
"I'm at home."
"Is Xu Chuchu by your side?"
Cheng Heng looked at Xu Chuchu again, and in the face of Xu Chuchu's dodging eyes, Cheng Heng had a premonition that something bad must have happened.
"Yes."
"Give me the location of your home, and I'll be there right away."
"Okay."
Cheng Heng hung up the phone, and Xu Chuchu hurriedly stepped forward to ask who it was.
"A friend, she's coming to my house, you clean up."
Xu Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief.
