Quick Wear: Pampering Your Lover

That day, Yan Jin was secretly happy that he had quietly monopolized the treasure, but he didn't expect that after he slept a little longer, someone would come from behind and rob his house.

He gave Mingzhen the brooch he had prepared for a long time and also matched a skirt for her. Only then did he feel satisfied.

In fact, what the three of them gave were gifts from their parents to their future daughters-in-law, but they did not say it explicitly in order not to give Mingzhen the opportunity to refuse.

The next morning, the four of them packed their luggage, took many local specialties prepared by Ming's parents, and set off on the journey back to S City.

As soon as Mingzhen came out of the airport, he saw Duan Huaizhi who had been waiting at the exit for a long time.

Duan Huaizhi stood tall and graceful, and upon seeing her emerge, a gentle smile immediately filled his eyes. He had a handsome face, a straight, cold, white nose, and a sharp, delicate jawline. At first glance, he appeared to be a cold and noble person, but at this moment, the smile in his eyes made him seem more lively.

"Zhenzhen!"

"Brother Huaizhi!"

Mingzhen happily threw herself into his arms, rubbing her rosy little face against his arms, her dependence and joy obvious.

This was something the other three had never felt before. As they watched this scene, they couldn't help but feel jealous, but they had no right to stop or occupy it, so they could only turn their eyes away in frustration.

Duan Huaizhi looked at the three people following behind his girlfriend, gently stroked the back of the head of the person in his arms, but his eyes were cold as he looked at the three people.

They were still taken advantage of. You know, Zhenzhen used to avoid them, but now she is willing to let them take her luggage and was even chatting and laughing with them when they came out.

Duan Huaizhi cupped Mingzhen's cheek and kissed her lips. With a faint smile, he said to the three of them, "Thank you for taking care of my girlfriend during this time."

Qu Yuanqian's tall and straight figure was unrestrained. He walked forward leisurely, pulled the person out of his arms, and said with a smile, "You're welcome. After all, we had a lot of fun playing with Zhenzhen."

Mingzhen glanced at her depressed boyfriend with a guilty look on her face, then quickly grabbed his hand and walked forward. "Hey, let's go, let's go back first."

Duan Huaizhi took her hand, but accidentally touched the warm jade bracelet. He lowered his eyes and glanced at it, his pupils shrank slightly, and the coldness on his body became even more intense.

Mingzhen shuddered with coldness, and quickly said goodbye to Yan Jin, Qian Anyang and Qu Yuanqian, and followed Duan Huaizhi into the car.

The car was driving smoothly and quickly. Inside the car, Duan Huaizhi didn't want to put pressure on Zhenzhen as soon as they met, so he suppressed his anger and gently brought her into his arms. After the driver lowered the tailgate with great tact, he leaned over and kissed her cheek again and again.

"Baby, I miss you so much."

He held her on his lap and buried his face in the crook of her neck. His hair tickled her. Mingzhen hugged him back obediently and said softly, "Brother Huaizhi, I miss you too."

After they returned to the apartment, the young man drove her back to her room, saying that he would prepare a table of delicious food for Mingzhen to make up for what she missed during the Chinese New Year.

Mingzhen returned to her room in a very good mood, and her cell phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

On the carpet of an apartment, a young man sat slumped on the ground, his blank, lifeless eyes looking nowhere. The room was filled with a strong smell of alcohol, and bottles of liquor were scattered all over the floor.

The space tightly covered by the curtains was dim and cold. A small warm lamp was smashed into pieces by the wine bottle. The dazzling light made his brain clear for a moment.

Xiao Gaoyi covered his still aching stomach and laughed at himself. Many unbandaged wounds on his body were already bleeding, but he didn't care. He took out his cell phone and dialed the number that he knew by heart.

After a while, the call was finally connected.

"Zhenzhen?"

Mingzhen was not surprised to hear the low and dejected voice from the other side, so he said "hmm" and put the phone aside.

During the winter vacation, Yan Jin, Qu Yuanqian and Qian Anyang talked to her about this matter.

They started to deal with the Xiao and Gao families. In order to prevent her from having any wild thoughts, they also specifically explained the bad things that the Xiao and Gao families had done behind her back and said that they would be punished by law.

Now that three months have passed, Mingzhen naturally knows that Xiao Gaoyi and the others are going through a difficult time, but she didn't expect that he could wait until now to contact her.

"How have you been lately?"

"Okay, what about you?"

Xiao Gaoyi was silent for a while, then said with difficulty: "I... am fine."

In fact, it wasn't all good. If he hadn't bought this apartment while traveling in City Z, he would have nowhere to live. Not only was he being pursued by his rivals, but also by some of his own people who disagreed with him politically. Furthermore, due to family reasons, the police were even looking for him.

He felt like he was crazy, going through all the trouble of calling her just to say these meaningless words? But he also secretly knew that he couldn't ask her, and even if he did, would it change anything?

"Zhenzhen, does the Xiao family's affairs have anything to do with you?"

He finally asked, his hand clenched pale as he held the phone, as if he was awaiting judgment.

There seemed to be silence on the other end of the phone for a second, and then the girl let out a low, clear laugh: "Brother Yi, what are you talking about? If I had that ability, would I still be bullied by you for a whole year?"

The answer is already obvious.

Xiao Gaoyi felt his stomach ache again. His eyes were red as he rasped, "Is your heart really made of stone? No matter how bad I was before, I sincerely repented later. I even dealt with my family personally for you. I've really given you my all!"

The harm he had done to her before was real. When he conspired with her to deal with his cousin, he actually understood what kind of person Mingzhen was.

He actually expected her to let go of her resentment towards him and even expected to establish a romantic relationship with her.

But he was sincere. This was the only sincerity he had shown in the past twenty-one years.

"You're still like this." Mingzhen laughed again, and she sighed softly, "What if I were ugly? Wouldn't I deserve to be bullied to death by you? Xiao Gaoyi, you talk about repentance, but do you believe it yourself?"

Her voice was very calm, as if she was just narrating a trivial matter, but the more so, the more panicked Xiao Gaoyi looked, as if the veil had been lifted, revealing his rotten flesh and blood.

"If you hadn't been interested in my appearance, what awaited me would have been endless beatings and humiliation. My self-esteem would have been completely shattered, but you still wouldn't let me go until, 'bang—', I jumped off the building and committed suicide."

"You'll just feel unlucky and then find the next 'toy', right?"

With every word Mingzhen spoke, his face became paler. By the time she finished speaking, Xiao Gaoyi lost all color and sat there like a cold corpse that had been frozen for a long time.

"No, no..."

His head felt dizzy and a sweet and fishy taste welled up in his mouth, as if he really saw the girl falling from a tall building with blood gushing out.

"Master Xiao, I heard you haven't been doing well lately. You finally managed to escape S City. Why are you so upset that you'd call me?" Mingzhen shook his head with a hint of regret. "I'm a good citizen and will definitely report you to the police. You... take care of yourself~"
