Chapter 65: But You, I Have to Do It Too
Qiao Wen didn't know why Chen Ke had such a big reaction when she saw her, she saw the incredulity in Chen Ke's eyes, and then Chen Ke looked at Xie Zhengyu: "You guys have reconciled?" β
Xie Zhengyu didn't answer him, but threw out all the wine bottles beside him: "Can you cheer up?" β
"You've been recognized?" Chen Ke was desperate for answers.
"Chen Ke, calm down."
"Are you back together?" Seeing that Xie Zhengyu didn't answer, he turned to look at Qiao Wen again: "You can all do it, can I and Zining too?" β
Qiao Wen looked at him and felt a pain in his heart, and some words were not said for a long time.
"Enough. Chen Ke, Zining will get married next month! β
"What kind of marriage? Who are you married? How is that possible..."
He knew everything, but he denied it faster than anyone else.
"Chen Ke!" Xie Zhengyu scolded: "It's better to die than to live here, it's better to cheer up and think about how to convince your parents." β
As soon as he heard the words of his parents, Chen Ke took two steps back and sat down on the bed: "What can I use to convince?" β
Qiao Wen looked at Chen Ke's sluggish appearance and suddenly thought of Sister Zining that day, she knew that they couldn't go back, maybe Chen Ke also knew, but he didn't dare to admit it.
She looked at Chen Ke carefully again, only to find that there was a scar on his wrist.
"Him?"
Qiao Wen looked at Xie Zhengyu in horror, Xie Zhengyu didn't speak, but pulled Chen Ke and walked to the bathroom: "You'd better clean yourself up, if you don't cheer up, Zi Ning really won't be able to come back." β
After closing the door, Xie Zhengyu looked at Qiao Wen calmly: "Did you see it?" Just what you think. β
"Why, how can this be?"
"So Wen Wen, do you want me to be like Chen Ke too?"
Qiao Wen's mouth was tightly closed, seeing Chen Ke like this, she could no longer say those words in the morning, those words were undoubtedly cursing Xie Zhengyu, she couldn't do it.
"Wenwen, you answer me."
Qiao Wen turned his head away, clenched his hands into fists and tried his best to endure: "Why lie to him, you obviously know that it is impossible for him and Sister Zining." β
"What do you think to tell him? Directly say that Zining is in love with someone else, and you will never be able to do it again. And then what? And then wait for him to jump down from here, shall we collect his body? β
Xie Zhengyu's voice was terrifyingly calm, and Qiao Wen didn't dare to refute it anymore. She knew that what Xie Zhengyu said was right.
"Qiao Wen, why don't you speak?"
The two confronted each other, almost at a knife-pounding point.
At this moment, Chen Ke walked out.
His face was much cleaner, and Chen Ke, who had shaved his beard, allowed Qiao Wen to really see what he looked like at this time.
He lost a lot of weight, and the edges and corners of his face were more distinct.
"Will she meet me like this?"
"Sister Zining, Sister Zining is on a business trip and is not in Jiangcheng, you just take this time to take care of yourself, otherwise she will be sad to see you like this."
Chen Ke lowered his eyes and laughed at himself: "She will never feel sorry for me again." β
Qiao Wen knew that Wang Zining didn't want to see Chen Ke, so he deliberately told a lie and wanted to delay the time, but he didn't expect Chen Ke to know later.
Xie Zhengyu was helpless: "I called my aunt to come over and clean up for you, you better cheer me up and go back to work next week, otherwise Zining will never come to see you for the rest of his life." β
"She, she's coming to see me?"
Chen Ke's eyes lit up.
"I'll let her come to see you, and it's up to you whether you can redeem it then."
Qiao Wen wanted to say something, but was pulled out of Chen Ke's house by Xie Zhengyu.
After the two came out, they didn't get in the car and leave, Xie Zhengyu let go of Qiao Wen's hand, Qiao Wen didn't leave this time, she followed Xie Zhengyu and walked outside together.
Seeing this, Zhang Qin could only drive the car and follow behind.
The two walked for a long time, and Xie Zhengyu finally stopped.
Qiao Wen looked at the man standing in front of him and took a deep breath.
"What do you think?"
"You brought me here just to let me know that if I continue to disappear without saying goodbye, you will only be more radical than Chen Ke, right?"
Xie Zhengyu didn't speak, and raised his eyebrows slightly to signal Qiao Wen to continue.
"But you won't, you have more responsibilities on you. Grandpa, parents, and the company are all burdens on your shoulders, and you won't leave them behind because of petty love. Qiao Wen's eyes brightened: "Just like the three years I left, you also took good care of the company, didn't you?" β
Xie Zhengyu didn't expect that in just three years, Qiao Wen's mouth would become sharp and sharp, and he would speak with a straight voice.
"Qiao Wen, I do have a responsibility, but you and I have to do it too. It's true that I can't be half-dead like Chen Ke, but it's not much better. It's probably to numb yourself with work, use wine as food, use wine to kill your sorrows, and end up with stomach cancer......"
"Enough!" Qiao Wen frowned and looked at Xie Zhengyu, she hated him for cursing herself like this.
"Xie Zhengyu, you are very powerful, but you are not strong enough to fight against your grandfather and your family. Such a result must be a lose-lose situation. In the end, I will give up because I feel sorry for my grandfather and uncles and aunts, and they will be sad because of me, and you won't get anything at that time, do you understand? β
"It's you who don't understand!" Xie Zhengyu grabbed Qiao Wen's shoulders and leaned slightly: "You think back to what you just said, did you put me in it word by word?" You think about the company, you think about your grandfather and your parents, but what about me? Where did you put me? β
Qiao Wen was stunned.
"What? Speechless? Jowen, do you think you're being too cruel to me? βγ
For a moment, Qiao Wen felt his nose sour.
She seems to have just understood that she ranked Xie Zhengyu too low in this relationship.
"I'm sorry."
Xie Zhengyu looked at Qiao Wen who hung his head and sneered: "Wenwen, do you feel sorry for me today?" β
He stretched out his hand and brushed Qiao Wen's hair, and his voice became soft: "Wenwen, it's not just me, you're sorry for yourself." In this relationship, you not only put me last, but also yourself. You've never thought about your feelings, have you noticed? β
Qiao Wen's eyes instantly turned red.
She didn't dare to look at Xie Zhengyu again, but Xie Zhengyu forced Qiao Wen to look at herself: "Wen Wen, don't you dare to look at me, you just admit it, right?" β
Qiao Wen broke away from Xie Zhengyu: "Yes, yes what?" We can't change anything, otherwise how would we get to where we are today? β
"Wen Wen, after all, you still don't believe me."
"I believe it, of course I do. But if the price of our stay is to break with your family and let your uncle and aunt lose their son, how can I accept it with peace of mind? β
Xie Zhengyu hugged Qiao Wen: "No, Wenwen, we won't come to that point." β
"Xie Zhengyu, I can't gamble with my grandfather's health, do you understand?"
Xie Zhengyu kept stroking Qiao Wen's hair, trying to soothe her.
"Wenwen, even if it's a gamble, I won't put my family in the bet. Not before, and not now. All you have to do now is trust me, okay? β
Jowen didn't respond, she didn't know what to answer.
She was afraid that she would promise him with one mouth, and she could feel that she was a little defeated now.
But for Xie Zhengyu, Qiao Wen's non-response was already a tacit acquiescence.
So he hugged her for a long time and refused to let go.
ββββ
Qiao Wen didn't know how he was brought home by Xie Zhengyu.
She sat on the balcony, blowing the sea breeze and couldn't tell the reality.
"I bought this house after you left, and I mentioned it to you before, but unfortunately you left before you could wait."
Xie Zhengyu came over with water, and he sat on another chair: "Here." β
"Thank you."
"The first time I came to see the house, I knew that you would like it, and when I renovated it, I tried my best to restore the house on Huaibei Road. I think that when you come back one day, you will definitely feel so familiar that you will not want to leave again. β
Qiao Wen held the glass of water and did not speak.
"Wenwen, this will be our home from now on, do you think it's okay?"
"You don't have to."
"Why not? That's what I promised you. β
Qiao Wen only felt that his heart was very complicated now, what was it like now?
Suddenly, a bell interrupted Qiao Wen's thoughts.
"Excuse me, I'll answer the phone."
Qiao Wen picked up his phone and stood up: "Hey." β
"You've left Xuzhou." Lingda's voice was affirmative.
"Well, something."
Ling Da was silent for a moment, and then continued, "Because of him? β
"Hmm."
Qiao Wen could feel that Ling Da was a little angry, but she didn't know how to comfort her.
"It's okay, dispose of it early to save trouble later."
Jowen was silent and did not respond.
"Call me if you have something, don't worry about the B&B, I'll be back in two days."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Qiao Wen hung up the phone and turned around to see Xie Zhengyu staring at him, with a coldness in his eyes.
She wanted to ignore it, but she was still a little uneasy.
"Three years ago, it was Lingda who took you away."
Jowen sat back down, then nodded slightly.
"He hid you for three years."
"No, I asked him."
"You're really good at finding people."
Qiao Wen chuckled: "Yes, Lingda is indeed very reliable. β
Xie Zhengyu thought that Qiao Wen really knew how to make himself angry, such as speaking for Ling Da now.
"Reliable? Hmph, that's naΓ―ve. β
"Childish? Mr. Xie, you must know that if it weren't for Ling Da, you might not be able to find me in this life, but grandpa is more powerful than Ling Da. β
Seeing that Qiao Wen was now resisting himself like a little beast, Xie Zhengyu felt extremely uncomfortable, and he couldn't say evil words to Qiao Wen after all: "Wen Wen, can we not quarrel?" β
"Didn't Mr. Xie pick it up first?"
Xie Zhengyu got up: "It's my fault." β
Qiao Wen didn't expect Xie Zhengyu to apologize immediately, and the coldness on his face faded by half a point for a while.
"I want to rest."
"I'll take you to the room."
Qiao Wen followed Xie Zhengyu to the third floor: "That's it?" β
"Yes."
Xie Zhengyu pushed open the door: "This is your bedroom." β
Qiao Wen looked at the room in front of him and frowned, this was obviously Xie Zhengyu's room, and the layout and furniture in the room were the same as before.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Xie Zhengyu, are you kidding me? This is your room! β
"Ke Wenwen, we used to live together."
Qiao Wen only felt that he was going to be angry with Xie Zhengyu, and he turned his head and was about to leave.
"What are you doing, let me go!"
