Chapter 110 The Antidote for the Abstinent Boss (25)
"People tend to talk nonsense when they're drunk, so don't take it to heart." Xie Qingyu's smile was somewhat forced.
"Why?" Zhou Shenye was indeed behaving like someone who had been abroad for a long time, speaking bluntly and not understanding roundabout ways.
"Just pretend I didn't say that yesterday," Xie Qingyu said, bowing her head.
“If you don’t want to get engaged to Zhou He, you don’t have to. You don’t like him, and he doesn’t like you either,” Zhou Shenye said.
Xie Qingyu suddenly looked up at Zhou Shenye, "Who said I don't like him?"
Zhou Shenye's gaze shifted, and his voice became somewhat hoarse, "Isn't that right? You were forced to get engaged to him after you came back. Do you really like a man who was thinking about other girls just a few days ago?"
“But we’re getting engaged soon, and when he becomes my fiancé, I’ll definitely try my best to like him. There’s nothing wrong with him.” Xie Qingyu answered the question in a relaxed tone, as if she were talking about something ordinary.
She wouldn't fall in love with just any man unless that man was her fiancé.
This is the answer Zhou Shenye clearly derived from her reply.
“He didn’t want to get engaged to you in the first place.” Zhou Shenye’s tone was somewhat hesitant.
"Whatever the reason, it's fine as long as you're willing now." Xie Qingyu finished a glass of milk and placed it on the table.
"And..." Xie Qingyu leaned forward, getting closer to Zhou Shenye, "Is Uncle trying to persuade me not to get engaged to Zhou He? I remember Zhou He agreed to it because of you..."
Upon hearing Xie Qingyu's words, Zhou Shenye's body stiffened completely.
These words coming from Xie Qingyu's mouth were undoubtedly a punishment for Zhou Shenye, reminding him of the mistakes he had made and how he had handed Xie Qingyu over to someone else.
If only I had known...
Zhou Shenye has never regretted his decisions, except now.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Uncle. I'll be going now," Xie Qingyu said casually before leaving.
This is one of Zhou Shenye's residences in China, and it's also the place he most often stays when he doesn't want to go back to his old house. It offers excellent privacy.
Xie Qingyu left from here without anyone knowing.
Zhou Shenye watched Xie Qingyu's departing figure, his palms clenched tightly, as if the smooth, comfortable touch still lingered on them.
A night of comfort is usually satisfying, but at this moment it seems to make one crave it even more.
She doesn't want to.
She was different from Xie Qingqing, Zhou Shenye knew that from the first time he met her.
He is not someone who can be used by the lure of money or status.
Moreover, he wants more.
It seems that once she identifies with someone, she won't change it.
It's like not liking Zhou He, but trying to get close to him because he's engaged.
Just because he is her uncle, she won't have any other thoughts about him.
Zhou Shenye tapped his index finger lightly on the table, some idea brewing in his mind.
Xie Qingyu, who had already left by car, didn't care about Zhou Shenye's current thoughts; she had already done what she wanted to do.
Looking at the task that was already 50% complete, a smile appeared on her lips; this time, the harvest had been quite fruitful.
When Xie Qingyu returned home, Xie Anshan was not there; only Wang Meilin was home, but she also looked like she was about to go out.
When Xie Qingyu returned, Wang Meilin's face flashed with disgust, only widening her eyes slightly when her gaze fell on the necklace around Xie Qingyu's neck.
"Did you order this necklace?" Wang Meilin asked.
"It was a gift from a friend." Xie Qingyu didn't seem to want to say anything more to her, only replying with this sentence as they passed each other, and then went upstairs without lingering.
She was held in someone's arms like a beloved doll yesterday and didn't sleep well all night, so she desperately needs to catch up on sleep now.
Wang Meilin, who was still standing at the door downstairs, watched Xie Qingyu go upstairs thoughtfully.
What friends could she possibly have? It's probably just the ones Zhou He gave her.
It looks very valuable; ordinary friends wouldn't give such an expensive gift.
The Zhou family is still quite wealthy.
If Qingqing hadn't broken off her engagement with Zhou He, that necklace would probably be around her neck now.
It's a pity now.
Wang Meilin thought about Xie Qingqing's current situation and couldn't help but want to scold her for being out of her mind, for canceling such a good marriage over something that had no basis in reality.
I'm waiting at home for news now, but I don't know what will happen. What if I can't get in touch with Zhou Shenye...?
Wang Meilin simply couldn't bear to think about it; if that were the case, where would she find such a good marriage for Xie Qingqing?
Wang Meilin's concerns are not unfounded.
Just as Xie Qingqing had finally managed to compose herself and go shopping with her friends, she received a call from 'Mr. Zhou'.
The moment Xie Qingqing saw the phone ringing, her face lit up with a smile, and she immediately found a quiet place to answer the call.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou~" Xie Qingqing's voice was sweet.
"Hello, Miss Xie." Assistant Feng's voice came from the other end, very serious.
Xie Qingqing answered the phone, her smile slowly fading, replaced by a smile more like a grimace. "What does this mean? Don't you have skin hunger? Aren't you the only one who can touch you?"
Xie Qingqing's voice became somewhat frantic and questioning towards the end.
Assistant Feng said something else, and Xie Qingqing's somewhat agitated expression gradually subsided until her last words were almost inaudible: "I disagree."
......
However, some things are not about asking for agreement or disagreement, but about informing others.
When Xie Qingqing returned home dejectedly, Xie Anshan was talking to Wang Meilin at home.
Xie Anshan is probably very excited today.
Unaware that Xie Qingqing had returned from the doorway, Xie Qingyu was the first to notice her coming downstairs.
"Qingyu, come here quickly. Your Uncle Zhou has given you a few auspicious dates for your engagement. Take a look and choose one that you think is better," Xie Anshan said, beckoning to Xie Qingyu.
"What did you say to Zhou He? I think these dates are all fine, especially the first two. It's good to settle things as soon as possible, which will also give you an explanation regarding your identity. What do you think?" At this moment, Xie Anshan seemed to have become a loving father in front of Xie Qingyu.
"So fast, let me take a look first." Xie Qingyu was sleeping soundly and became interested when she heard Xie Anshan's words.
Whether or not it can be done, choosing a time is still quite interesting.
"I disagree!" Xie Qingqing's sharp voice came from the doorway.
Xie Anshan then realized that she had returned.
Wang Meilin could tell something was wrong from her expression, and rushed forward anxiously, "Qingqing, what's wrong?"
"I don't agree, I don't agree to this swap marriage!" Xie Qingqing murmured.
Wang Meilin and Xie Anshan's expressions changed, and they immediately realized what was going on.
