After seeing the true nature of the woman he had been pursuing, the CEO's wife cried and begged

Chapter Twenty-Two: Misunderstanding

"Brother Zirui, I know what you want to say."

"But my aunt told me that you got sick because of that woman?"

He Yuqing looked over.

Dr. Xu looks extremely weak now.

It's all because of that woman.

Is Dr. Xu really willing to compromise himself to this extent for his ex-wife?

"Qingqing, this is my own business, and I'm not doing it for Jiang Xin."

Just as Xu Zirui was about to press the button, the restaurant door was pushed open.

And just then, He Yuqing saw the person who had come.

"Brother Zirui, is everything you just said true?"

"You're not doing this for that ex-wife?"

He Yuqing deliberately raised her voice.

Jiang Xin, who had just walked in, overheard him putting it away.

Jiang Xin hadn't noticed the person in the corner at first.

"Xu Zirui?"

Jiang Xin looked at the man, her eyes filled with confusion.

Since the divorce, I seem to run into them everywhere I go.

"Why is it him again?"

"Xinxin, didn't we make plans with some people? Let's not let them ruin our mood."

Meng Chengze whispered a reminder.

Jiang Xin resisted the urge to step forward and ask.

"Let's go to the private room first."

After Jiang Xin left, He Yuqing frowned.

"Brother Zirui, I just feel that you are not worth it."

He Yuqing frowned.

Xu Zirui stroked the teacup.

But his mind kept flashing back to the days he spent with Jiang Xin.

It seems that Jiang Xin brought him to this restaurant before.

Xu Zirui snapped out of his daze and looked at He Yuqing, momentarily lost in thought.

Inside the private room, Jiang Xin put down the phone.

"Things are in trouble."

"This game is over for today."

Jiang Xin looked displeased.

Meng Chengze was also taken aback after hearing this.

"Who is this person? Aren't they just deliberately trying to disgust us?"

Jiang Xin sighed as soon as Meng Chengze finished speaking.

"Let's go, there's no need to stay."

Meng Chengze, however, thought of Xu Zirui, who was outside.

"Xinxin, since we're already here, let's go out and have a look."

"I think I just saw Dr. Xu. Wasn't she the girl he was with last time?"

Meng Chengze explained.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xin did not hesitate.

Xu Zirui and He Yuqing chatted about their childhood.

The awkward atmosphere eased for a moment.

Jiang Xin noticed the two chatting and laughing.

"Dr. Xu, what a coincidence!"

"We meet again. Are you two on a date?"

Meng Chengze walked forward out of curiosity.

There was still a smile in the corner of her eye.

However, there was a hint of mockery in that smile.

Xu Zirui frowned, not expecting to run into them here.

"Oh, it's President Jiang! You've come to eat too."

He Yuqing responded with a smile.

"I'm having dinner with my brother Zirui today, would you like to join us?"

In the past, He Yuqing might not have taken the initiative.

But ever since I found out that Brother Zirui had become like this because of Jiang Xin.

He Yuqing's attitude has also changed.

Jiang Xin frowned and glanced at Xu Zirui again.

"Dr. Xu, it seems you really like Miss He."

"Why didn't you tell me sooner? Maybe I would have wished you well."

Jiang Xin felt awkward, especially when she thought about how the two of them had been chatting and laughing just now.

A feeling of bitterness welled up inside me.

Am I really inferior to this woman in front of me?

In terms of physique, appearance, and background, how can anyone compare to me?

Meng Chengze looked surprised.

"Dr. Xu, that's where you're wrong."

"If you like Miss He, you'd better take the initiative."

Meng Chengze seized every opportunity.

He made sarcastic remarks without holding back, seemingly oblivious to Jiang Xin's expression beside him.

Xu Zirui looked over and said, "President Jiang, this is my private life."

"We're already divorced. Even if I were to get together with Qingqing, it would have nothing to do with you."

"Besides, aren't you getting married soon too?"

Xu Zirui smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the outside world doesn't know Meng Chengze yet."

"President Jiang just took him out like that, parading around town."

"If this falls into the wrong hands, the Jiang Group will probably have to spend a lot of money to suppress it."

After saying these words, Xu Zirui stood up.

"Miss He, if you've eaten, let's go shopping. We still have a lot to do today."

Xu Zirui spoke softly.

Jiang Xin was taken aback. Why would Xu Zirui look at the people around him like that?

"Xu Zirui!"

Jiang Xin raised her voice, while Xu Zirui shook his head.

"Miss Jiang, is there anything else?"

"We have a date."

After Xu Zirui finished speaking, he took He Yuqing and left.

He Yuqing smiled apologetically, "I'm so sorry, we'll have to excuse ourselves now."

After Xu Zirui left, Jiang Xin completely lost the desire to eat.

Looking at that resolute figure, a hint of hatred surfaced in his eyes.

Meng Chengze was also dissatisfied.

"Xinxin, this Meng Chengze is really ungrateful. Do you want to eat something?"

Meng Chengze was talking to himself and was just about to order when Jiang Xin left in her high heels.

Meanwhile, Xu Zirui pulled He Yuqing's wrist and entered the mall.

"Brother Zirui, what's wrong with you?"

He Yuqing blushed and looked down at her wrist that had been grabbed.

Xu Zirui came to his senses and realized that he had been rude.

"Qingqing, thank you for helping me."

As soon as Xu Zirui finished speaking, He Yuqing simply chuckled.

“Brother Zirui, I did this for you.”

He Yuqing lowered her eyes, her mind already occupied with other thoughts.

At that moment, she also began to like Xu Zirui.

However, He Yuqing also knew that if she revealed it, they might never be able to meet again.

"Qingqing..."

Xu Zirui was puzzled. Could it be that He Yuqing had also developed feelings for him?

No sooner had she finished speaking than He Yuqing suddenly burst into laughter.

"Brother Zirui, given our friendship since we were kids, how could I possibly not help you if you're in trouble?"

"Not to mention I can't stand that man's arrogant manner."

"He's clearly a poor man from a poor background, yet he has the nerve to compare himself to you."

He Yuqing stood up for him, and Xu Zirui finally relaxed.

"I thought you had taken a liking to me. We're on the same side, so you can't have any improper thoughts about me."

Xu Zirui smiled, but He Yuqing's face was somewhat serious.

"Brother Zirui, what if I really fall in love with you?"

Upon hearing He Yuqing's words, Xu Zirui froze, then hesitated for a moment.

"Then you'd better suppress this idea quickly. I only see you as a younger sister."

Xu Zirui spoke earnestly, but He Yuqing simply smiled.

"Brother Zirui, what are you thinking about?"

"Do you have time tomorrow? I heard there's an art exhibition tomorrow, let's go check it out."

"Otherwise, I'll be set up to meet new blind dates."

He Yuqing looked at Xu Zirui with anticipation.

Xu Zirui nodded slightly.

If I go back like this, my mother definitely won't let me off the hook.

Maybe she'll find another blind date.

Instead of getting to know some new people, I'd rather be with He Yuqing first.
