Chapter 122 The Antidote for the Abstinent Boss (37)
Zhou Shenye didn't ask Xie Qingyu until they got home and he held her in his arms, "You don't want to marry me? What are you worried about?"
Zhou Shenye's question is unreasonable.
Xie Qingyu had previously stated that she would live in China in the future, which clearly indicated that she had already linked Zhou Shenye with her future.
So his question was pointless.
Xie Qingyu looked at Zhou Shenye's face with a half-smile, without answering.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Zhou Shenye took her hand and kissed it. "I was just afraid you might suddenly change your mind."
“If you still think that way next time, then don’t get married.” Xie Qingyu could see the anxiety in Zhou Shenye’s eyes.
Perhaps it was because of the romantic relationships I was exposed to from a young age, whether from my birth mother or Grandpa Zhou, that I learned the truth that love doesn't last.
He will feel insecure about such a relationship.
The fear of loss can be a catalyst when a relationship is going well, promoting its growth; however, it becomes the biggest hidden danger when a relationship is in trouble, as even the slightest disturbance can be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
Therefore, Xie Qingyu wanted Zhou Shenye to realize this about himself.
Zhou Shenye clearly has a high level of understanding in this area.
He understood her meaning from Xie Qingyu's words and her eyes alone.
"It won't happen again next time, as long as you're always here." Zhou Shenye's meaning was clear: as long as Xie Qingyu stayed by his side for a long enough time, he would have enough time to confirm the authenticity of this relationship.
Xie Qingyu gave Zhou Shenye a kiss on the chin as a reward, "Then good luck!"
"So when are you going to marry me?" Zhou Shenye pulled the person who wanted to leave back.
"We'll talk about it when you propose to me," Xie Qingyu said casually. "Wanting a wife without proposing? You're dreaming."
Xie Qingyu's vivid expressions pleased Zhou Shenye, as if Xie Qingyu's words were a promise to him.
"It will be soon," Zhou Shenye assured him in a low voice.
Zhou Shenye spoke quickly, a little later than Xie Qingyu had expected, because he had dealt with some other matters beforehand.
The most troublesome issue is Zhou He's decision to break off the engagement.
It's unclear how Zhou Shenye spoke to Zhou Jin, or what benefits he offered, but Zhou Jin readily agreed to Zhou He's request to annul the engagement.
However, dealing with the Xie family was not so easy.
When Xie Anshan brought the news of the annulment of the engagement back to the Zhou family, Wang Meilin and Xie Qingqing didn't quite believe it. They even thought it was about Zhou He and Xie Qingyu breaking off their engagement.
It wasn't until Xie Anshan repeated that Zhou He had broken off his engagement with Xie Qingqing that they realized what had happened.
Xie Qingqing immediately called Zhou He.
Wang Meilin stood to the side watching longingly, and even Xie Anshan, who seemed to be silent, was looking at Xie Qingqing's phone screen.
But no one answered the phone.
No matter how many times Xie Qingqing called, no one answered.
"What exactly did they say? Why are they suddenly breaking off the engagement?" Wang Meilin looked at the unreachable phone and turned her anger towards Xie Anshan.
At that moment, Wang Meilin was so worried about her daughter that she didn't care about anything else.
If word gets out that the engagement has been called off, how will Qingqing ever get married again?
Wang Meilin believes that her daughter is exceptionally well-behaved, obedient, beautiful, and charming—a natural-born woman destined for a high-status marriage.
Previously, thanks to Xie Qingqing's marriage, she was the envy of countless people when she went out and interacted with others.
Later, when she thought Xie Qingqing could marry Zhou Shenye, she even imagined that she would become Zhou Shenye's mother-in-law and everyone would have to fawn over her when they went out.
Now everything is gone.
"Did Xie Qingyu say something?" Wang Meilin suddenly thought of Xie Qingyu. "She's already with Zhou Shenye, why doesn't she give this marriage back to Qingqing?"
Upon hearing Wang Meilin's words, Xie Anshan's expression softened somewhat.
Ever since Zhou Shenye answered his phone last time, he realized that Xie Qingyu had really caught Zhou Shenye's eye.
This was originally a good thing, but the bad thing was that Zhou Shenye's words made him tremble with fear.
So he hasn't dared to call Xie Qingyu these past few days, at most he's sent her a message asking when she'll be coming.
However, Xie Qingyu never replied.
A child you don't raise yourself will never be truly close to you.
Looking at Xie Anshan's expression, Wang Meilin became even more certain that Xie Qingyu was behind it all.
She was furious. "I knew she wasn't a good person. If we hadn't brought her back, she wouldn't have such a good life now, let alone be able to climb up to someone like Zhou Shenye. Who knew she would be such an ingrate?"
"Enough!" Xie Anshan roared as he heard Wang Meilin's cursing.
He knew Xie Qingyu wasn't close to him, but the fact was that Xie Qingyu was with Zhou Shenye. "Knowing that Zhou Shenye has taken a liking to her, what you should do now is try to build a relationship with her, instead of making trouble here!"
After Xie Anshan finished speaking, he looked at Xie Qingqing with a look of disappointment and frustration. "If he doesn't answer the phone, go find him. If you start with Zhou He, there might be a chance to turn things around regarding the annulment of the engagement."
Xie Anshan's words gave the flustered Xie Qingqing some direction. Since she couldn't get through to Zhou He, she called the group of people who usually hung out with Zhou He.
Looking at the chaotic state of his home, Xie Anshan turned and left.
Wang Meilin watched his departing figure, but could not say anything.
She knew Xie Anshan had someone else outside, but she couldn't control it.
All her hopes are now pinned on Xie Qingqing. For Wang Meilin, the annulment of the engagement is far more important than knowing which lover Xie Anshan has gone to.
After all, even if he messes around outside, he can't have a son.
Wang Meilin's body was damaged when she gave birth to Xie Qingqing, so she cannot get pregnant again.
Therefore, she made sure Xie Anshan couldn't have children. She knew Xie Anshan's obsession with having a son, so she had to make sure he couldn't have children either, otherwise the position of Mrs. Xie would no longer be hers.
Since she couldn't have a child, she let Xie Anshan go out and play as he pleased.
Xie Qingqing's call was finally answered by one of the people who often hung out with Zhou He.
Wang Meilin refocused her attention and gestured for Xie Qingqing to turn on speakerphone.
"They should be at the racetrack. I had something to do today and couldn't go. They might not have answered your call because of the race." The person who didn't go obviously didn't know what had happened.
"it is good."
As soon as Xie Qingqing hung up the phone, Wang Meilin immediately said, "Go find him."
Xie Qingqing knew the racetrack they frequented, and without even changing her clothes, she had the driver take her there.
On the way, Xie Qingqing kept reassuring herself that Zhou He was probably racing and that's why he didn't answer her call.
When she arrived at the destination, she immediately spotted Zhou He standing next to the race car.
Even before getting close, just by looking at him, Xie Qingqing felt that Zhou He seemed different.
