Chapter Seventy-Four: The Concern of Others

Xu Zirui was taken aback, his eyes filled with helplessness.

I thought Chen Huifang was worried about her health, but I never expected that she was worried about her marriage.

Feeling helpless, all he could do was shake his head.

"Mom, don't worry about it. You can't rush things like relationships."

Xu Zirui was helpless, while Chen Huifang just snorted coldly.

"You little rascal, you said the same thing before. We really weren't in a hurry, but in the end, we sent you to the Jiang family."

Chen Huifang suddenly fell silent at this point.

"Forget it, I won't worry about you anymore."

After Chen Huifang finished speaking, she turned and left.

Xu Zirui lowered his eyes, understanding Chen Huifang's meaning.

However, he only agreed to Jiang Xin's request because he was after his own interests.

With a wry smile, Xu Zirui temporarily put these matters out of his mind.

Only then did I begin to process the messages on my phone.

The person most worried about this is Zhang Feier.

I've made countless phone calls.

Xu Zirui had no choice but to call back.

Zhang Feier answered the phone immediately.

"Master, where did you go last night? Why are we only finding out now? Are you alright?"

Xu Zirui remained silent for a while in response to Zhang Feier's question.

"I'm fine, I just can't hold my liquor. Don't worry, Mr. Zhang didn't ask any questions, did he?"

As Xu Zirui spoke, Zhang Feier merely snorted coldly.

“Master, what time is it? You still care about my dad’s opinion?”

"You really scared me to death last night, thank goodness you're alright."

Zhang Feier sighed and then continued, "Don't worry, everything is fine at the banquet."

Xu Zirui agreed softly before hanging up the phone.

Just as I hung up the phone, He Yuqing called back.

Xu Zirui was somewhat surprised, then realized that it must have been Chen Huifang who said it.

He sighed helplessly.

"Brother Zirui, you finally answered the phone. What happened?"

“I heard from Auntie last night that you didn’t go home, and I was so worried.”

He Yuqing's voice was filled with worry.

Xu Zirui nodded slightly before continuing, "Don't worry, it's nothing. I was at the hospital last night."

Xu Zirui still gave the same answer.

Upon hearing this, He Yuqing on the other end of the phone remained silent for a while.

"Brother Zirui, you lied to me again. I went to the hospital specifically, but you weren't there. You went to that banquet, didn't you?"

He Yuqing exposed Xu Zirui's true colors.

Xu Zirui was taken aback and didn't know how to start the conversation.

Instead, He Yuqing on the other end of the phone sighed.

“Brother Zirui, you don’t need to hide this from me. I’m happy for you to see your success.”

After He Yuqing finished speaking, Xu Zirui felt a warmth in his heart.

"Qingqing, you don't need to keep following me. I can't give you what you want."

Xu Zirui's tone carried a hint of bitterness.

He could see through He Yuqing's thoughts, but he didn't know how to respond.

They were completely unable to respond.

Thinking of this, Xu Zirui didn't want He Yuqing to continue, and he didn't want to see He Yuqing disappointed.

"Brother Zirui, what are you thinking? Didn't we agree to help each other?"

Why are you thinking about all this?

He Yuqing snorted at the doctor, and Xu Zirui felt even more embarrassed upon hearing this.

"Qingqing, just think of it as me overthinking. I was just trying to remind you not to overthink things."

There was silence on the other end of the line.

Finally, He Yuqing burst into laughter a few times, "Brother Zirui, you're really funny. How could I possibly have such thoughts?"

"Besides, you're a married man, and I don't want to be a divorcee."

After He Yuqing finished speaking, she quickly made an excuse to hang up the phone.

Hearing this, Xu Zirui felt somewhat embarrassed and could only sigh helplessly in the end.

Meanwhile, Meng Chengze returned to the villa, his eyes filled with hostility.

First, there was Zhang Taohua's betrayal, and then her carefully planned drugging scheme was thwarted.

Meng Chengze urgently needed a solution.

Meng's mother was chatting with some relatives when she looked up and saw Meng Chengze.

A hint of dissatisfaction appeared in his eyes.

"Didn't I tell you to go find Xinxin? Why are you back now? What happened?"

Mencius' mother asked anxiously, which made Xu Zirui even more furious.

"Mom, there's been a rift between Jiang Xin and me, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to resolve."

After Xu Zirui finished speaking, Meng's mother immediately hung up the phone.

"What exactly happened? Your plan didn't work out?"

Meng's mother asked excitedly, and Xu Zirui shook his head.

"I didn't expect that Xu Zirui would beat me to it."

"You have no idea about the expression on Jiang Xin's face today; she was clearly defending Xu Zirui."

Meng Chengze clenched his fists, and Meng's mother also fell silent.

I never expected things to turn out this complicated. It would be dangerous if that man beat me to it.

"You little rascal, you really disappoint me. You can't even handle something as simple as this."

"Jiang Xin is so important to us, how could you do this to her!"

Thinking of this, Mencius' mother became even angrier.

Xu Zirui gritted his teeth.

"Mom, Zhang Taohua is useless now. What do you suggest we do? We can't just hire someone to beat her up, can we?"

"Wouldn't that be too obvious?"

Meng Chengze was helpless, but his mother had a gloomy face.

"Cheng Ze, those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles."

"If you want to hold onto Jiang Xin firmly, you have to be ruthless."

The mother's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and Meng Chengze was somewhat confused, but he quickly realized what was happening.

"Mom, are you telling me to just take action?"

Meng Chengze felt somewhat dissatisfied with Jiang Xin's current attitude.

Especially after what happened with Xu Zirui, they became even more disgusted.

He's afraid of getting dirty with a woman like that.

"You don't believe me when I say you're stupid. Don't you have President Zhao as your powerful backer?"

"As long as you get hold of General Manager Zhao, use him to put pressure on Jiang Xin and make her completely dependent on you."

"And you can also take this opportunity to deal with Xu Zirui."

After hearing the plan from Meng's mother, Meng Chengze suddenly understood.

I almost forgot about Zhao Chengfeng. Ever since the incident with Meng Xinxin, that old man has been quietly disappearing.

I was busy running around, and even had to solve so many problems.

Taking advantage of Jiang Xin's absence that afternoon, Meng Chengze immediately called Zhao Chengfeng.

"Mr. Zhao, you finally answered my call. I've been so busy these past few days that I'm completely overwhelmed."

As Meng Chengze spoke, Zhao Chengfeng's tone on the phone didn't sound so happy.

"Cheng Ze, what made you think of calling me? The company is in a hurry right now, and I'm very busy too."

As soon as Zhao Chengfeng finished speaking, Xu Zirui's expression changed immediately.

This is clearly a rejection of oneself.

However, Meng Chengze could not afford to miss the opportunity.

"Mr. Zhao, I actually wanted to talk to you about this cooperation."

"Don't worry about my cousin, I've already calmed her down, she won't cause you any trouble."
