After the breakup, the abstinent president got married and had three babies
Chapter 308: Becoming famous
After hearing this, Brother Hai immediately turned his gaze towards him, his eyes full of doubt and confusion.
He frowned slightly and asked, "She saved your life seven years ago? What happened?"
In fact, Brother Hai only knew that Zhang Kai had a crush on Xia Ruoan, but he knew nothing about the reason.
At this moment, Brother Hai suddenly said, "Aren't you attracted by her beauty?"
It’s not surprising that Brother Hai would make such speculations. After all, he has been in the entertainment industry for many years and has seen all kinds of beauties.
However, he had to admit that he had never met a woman as beautiful as Xia Ruoan.
If Xia Ruoan entered the entertainment industry, he would definitely become famous quickly.
Because she not only has outstanding looks, but also has a unique temperament, she can handle almost any type of role without having to worry about being bound by a fixed image.
What is even more commendable is that she is the kind of beauty that is worth looking at for a long time. She is stunning at first sight, and as time goes by, her charm becomes more and more apparent.
In addition, perhaps because of the major Xia Ruoan studied, she often deals with flowers, plants, vegetables, and fruits on a daily basis.
Over time, these natural elements seem to have integrated into the depths of her soul, giving her a vibrant and lively aura.
This quality is like a magnet, attracting people to her involuntarily.
Even Zhou Mufan, who had no intention of marrying Xia Ruoan at first, had never even thought of breaking up with her. The reason was that he enjoyed the comfortable feeling of being with Xia Ruoan.
The dark times seven years ago are still deeply etched in Zhang Kai's mind. Back then, his career was just beginning when he suffered a series of setbacks that nearly destroyed him.
At this moment, Zhang Kai looked at Brother Hai in front of him with a serious look, and slowly said: "Seven years ago, I was almost destroyed. You should still remember it."
Brother Hai frowned slightly, trying to recall the past. After a moment, he responded, "Is it about that incident where that female celebrity accused you of forcibly possessing her?"
Zhang Kai nodded and added gravely, "Yes, but that's not all. There was also an incident where I was betrayed by my former companions, who falsely accused me of plagiarizing their work."
"This series of misfortunes plunged me into extreme pain and confusion, so I chose to numb myself with alcohol."
Speaking of this, Zhang Kai's eyes became a little dim, as if he had returned to that desperate moment.
"One night, I was very drunk in a dark alley."
"Somehow, I got into a conflict with someone, and then a fight ensued."
"During that time, I frequently went in and out of chaotic places, fighting with others. It felt like life had lost its meaning. Many times, I felt like I was about to die there."
Zhang Kai paused, then continued, "However, during that most dangerous fight, Xia Ruoan appeared in front of me."
"When the other person raised the knife to chop at me, she rushed over without hesitation and blocked the fatal blow for me. She also injured her hand, but at that moment, my world suddenly lit up."
Zhang Kai raised his head and gazed into the distance, his eyes gleaming with gratitude and affection: "For her, perhaps this was just a simple gesture, a simple favor."
"But for me, it is warmth and protection that I have never experienced before."
"From childhood, I have always lived under the shadow of my family. Although I am nominally the second young master of the Zhang family and seem to have an enviable status and position, in reality, it is just a superficial glory."
Zhang Kai smiled bitterly and shook his head, continuing, "My father's heart is completely biased towards my eldest brother, and my mother, in order to please my father, even treats my illegitimate eldest brother better than me."
"Growing up in such an environment, I never felt true love and support. It wasn't until Xia Ruoan showed up that I realized there were people in this world who were willing to stand up for me."
"As for me, what's the difference between having biological parents? It's almost the same as not having them!"
Zhang Kai laughed self-deprecatingly, his eyes revealing a hint of sadness and helplessness. Recalling his past experiences, he couldn't help but feel a surge of bitterness.
At home, he never received the attention and care he deserved.
And outside, the reason why those people flattered and tried to please him was simply because his surname was Zhang.
Even among the so-called friends around us, how many of them treat each other sincerely?
To a greater or lesser extent, all interactions between people are mixed with factors of interests.
Especially after the slander incident, Zhang Kai, who had thought he could get some comfort and support from his family, was completely disappointed.
Not only did his family not choose to believe him, but they also accused him of being a disgrace and bringing shame to the entire family.
His teacher even said mercilessly that he was ashamed of having a student like him.
However, it was not his fault at all!
"At that time, I really felt that life was meaningless, and even wanted to die. Perhaps only that way could I find true liberation."
Zhang Kai looked into the distance with empty eyes and slowly confided to the other party.
"Later, I almost succeeded in committing suicide, but she appeared and stopped me." When he said this, a faint smile appeared on Zhang Kai's face.
"She told me that if you choose to commit suicide, you will usually become a helpless ghost, forever losing the chance to be reborn. I don't know where she heard that."
“Even a blade of grass, pinned down by a heavy rock, still stubbornly grows with all its might, striving for a glimmer of hope.”
"So we should not give up on ourselves. If we give up on ourselves so easily, then there is truly no hope."
Brother Hai looked at him in surprise and asked, "And then?"
There was a hint of urgency and curiosity in his tone.
"Since you have known each other for a long time and he once saved your life, why do you still treat him like that?"
"That's simply repaying kindness with enmity! I'm sure she'll regret saving a heartless person like you."
Brother Hai frowned, looked at Zhang Kai with confusion, and blurted out words of accusation.
After hearing this, Zhang Kai's face flashed with surprise, and then he revealed a self-deprecating smile.
He snorted softly and said slowly, "Hehe... She doesn't care about me at all. She may not even remember what I look like."
After he finished speaking, his eyes became somewhat dim, as if he was hiding endless loss and sorrow in his heart.
"Afterwards, I wandered around the area, hoping to run into her again."
"However, contrary to my wishes, I never met her once."
"Until one day, when I saw her again, it was Zhou Mufan who appeared in front of me holding her hand." When he said this, Zhang Kai's voice trembled slightly, and he was obviously a little excited.
"At that time, Xia Ruoan had already become Zhou Mufan's girlfriend, and the look in her eyes when she looked at me was full of strangeness, without any trace of memory at all." Zhang Kai gritted his teeth and clenched his fists unwillingly.
Zhang Kai has always scoffed at and disdained others' compliments on his handsome appearance.
But at this moment, in front of Xia Ruoan, he wished that he could be more beautiful, so that maybe she would pay more attention to him and remember him.
"Isn't my face outstanding enough?" Zhang Kai muttered to himself, and couldn't help but reached out and gently stroked his cheek, his eyes full of confusion and bewilderment.
Seeing this, Brother Hai couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly, and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Don't you usually hate people talking about your appearance? Why do you care about it today?"
If Zhang Kai didn't hate hypocrisy and affectation from the bottom of his heart, he would probably have resolutely chosen to cut a few knives on his still handsome face.
After all, there was a time in the past when he was obsessed with having plastic surgery to make himself more perfect.
"I remember that you seemed determined to get plastic surgery at first, but why did you suddenly stop and stop doing anything?" Brother Hai narrowed his eyes, trying to recall the past.
He clearly remembered that Zhang Kai collected a lot of information about plastic surgery and acted like a professional.
As for himself, he racked his brains to think about how to persuade Zhang Kai to give up this crazy idea.
Who could have expected that in the end all the prepared arguments would be of no use at all.
As for why Zhang Kai changed his mind so suddenly, Brother Hai was really puzzled.
"Could it be... that you gave up the idea of getting plastic surgery because of that Xia Ruoan?" Brother Hai stared at Zhang Kai with suspicion and asked tentatively.
Zhang Kai just raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Brother Hai, then nodded slightly to indicate his agreement.
"Everyone is unique, that's what she said. And she also said that learning to accept the real self is actually a recognition and affirmation of one's own value." Zhang Kai said slowly, but he did not tell the whole truth.
In fact, in addition to Xia Ruoan's thought-provoking words, the more important reason is that Xia Ruoan has a deep fear of plastic surgery in her heart.
Whenever Zhang Kai mentioned plastic surgery, Xia Ruoan's beautiful eyes would always reveal an unconcealable look of horror, as if the person after plastic surgery was no longer the same person.
It was this fear from Xia Ruoan's heart that ultimately made Zhang Kai completely give up the idea of having plastic surgery.
At that time, Xia Ruoan and Xu Nanyiyi were talking about some female celebrities' plastic surgery. Xu Nanyiyi was an editor and Liang Zian was a director. It was normal for them to contact celebrity actors.
Xu Nanyiyi was even more fond of gossip, and told Xia Ruoan a lot of gossip about male and female celebrities.
There has been talk of plastic surgery.
Xia Ruoan said she was afraid of seeing familiar people become different, and that her face would look stiff and ugly in the future.
Therefore, Zhang Kai also gave up the idea of plastic surgery.
"What are you thinking when you come back this time? You know, Leng Zexi loves Xia Ruoan very much and they have three lovely children. You have no chance." Brother Hai looked at him worriedly.
"Don't do anything to repay kindness with enmity, or your Zhang family won't be able to protect you."
"Xia Ruoan is not only the daughter of the Xia family, but also Leng Zexi's wife. Her four brothers are also of high status."
“Her own achievements today are even more remarkable.
"Someone mentioned before about the vegetable auction. Those vegetables were grown by her, and the rich and powerful were scrambling to buy them." Brother Hai looked at him and said.
