Chapter 723: Mistaken Recognition, Mistaken Affection, Mistaken Love
Zhuang Zhoucheng is a capable man after all, and is capable enough to deal with Huo Yan.
He pulled Huo Yan into his arms and whispered:
"I just want to cuddle for a while."
Huo Yan didn't say anything and let him hold her.
In fact, I could see that he was hiding something, but I just didn't say it.
She had no right to say anything about Zhuang Zhoucheng's affairs. Huo Yan rolled her eyes.
At this moment, she was reminded of what Lu Zeng said to her one day. He said that there were many women around Zhuang Zhoucheng, including good women. He asked her to stop being distracted and focus more on her husband.
Huo Yan thought that Lu Zeng was warning her, telling her that her husband was actually very popular.
But now think about it, what did Lu Zeng actually want to say when he hesitated after saying that?
Remind her?
Huo Yan was willing to believe Zhuang Zhoucheng. Her man would not hug other women and loved her very much. In the end, she felt relieved.
After the Zhuang family's dinner ended, Huo Yan returned to his room, unable to find anything to say to his family.
I went back to the room to pack my luggage because I was about to go out for field research.
Zhuang Zhoucheng went to Xu Jingxi's place that night. Xu Jingxi had moved out of the hotel and was living in an apartment in Jingyuan.
This apartment belongs to Zhuang Zhoucheng. It has been renovated but no one lives in it, so Xu Jingxi is temporarily living in it.
Zhuang Zhoucheng's attitude towards Xu Jingxi was definitely different from that towards ordinary acquaintances, after all, they had been engaged for eight years.
I can't say I have any feelings for Xu Jingxi, I just feel guilty towards her.
Zhuang Zhoucheng thought about compensating her for wasting her best years on him, but Xu Jingxi's action was too decisive, so he gave up in the end.
Now that he is at his wit's end, even if he finds him again, Zhuang Zhoucheng can't just ignore him.
Xu Jingxi's body has been undergoing conditioning. In addition to the injuries on her body, her foundation has also been injured.
When Zhuang Zhoucheng learned that Xu Jingxi had his child, he could not calm down for a long time. If he had known that she was pregnant, he would have definitely married her.
"Zhou Cheng, I didn't want to tell you this, but in my current situation, you're the only one I can turn to. In order to be treated differently from my sister, and also so that I can have a place to stay... Hehe, you can call me despicable or shameless, but I hope you can help me this time for the sake of our past friendship."
Xu Jingxi's words were so clear that Zhuang Zhoucheng was at a loss as to what to do.
Xu Jingxi is unwilling to get married. Her fiancé was arranged by her mother and is from her mother's family.
She was a decent person before the engagement, but changed after the engagement, especially after Xu Jingxi moved to her fiancé's house, her true nature was revealed.
The Han family is also a well-known family. Xu Jingxi can't stand it. After returning to the Xu family, can she still cancel the engagement?
Now that you have entered the Han family, are you still clean?
Xu's mother had been pressuring the marriage, and Xu Jingxi couldn't cancel it, so the wedding date was postponed again and again until now.
"Zhou Cheng, I'm not trying to get ahead of you. I'm happy to see you happy. I just want to borrow your ability to help me this time. Perhaps, when I feel better, I'll leave here and leave Country Z. I'll always remember your care during this time."
Xu Jingxi was retreating to advance, telling this man how much she had suffered for him and how much she had wasted a woman's most precious youth on him.
Because of him, I haven't gotten married for so many years.
If a woman appears in front of him with a miserable and pitiful look, no man with a heart of stone would refuse her cruelly.
Zhuang Zhoucheng was actually not good at dealing with women's affairs. He always told his wife to listen to him, and if she didn't listen, he would force her to listen.
He has never dealt with relationships before and has no experience.
If it were any other woman, he wouldn't have to get involved at all and the problem could be solved cleanly.
But does anyone else dare to interfere with Xu Jingxi?
She almost became the queen's wife.
Lu Zeng was kept out of Xu Jingxi's affairs.
Zhuang Zhoucheng did this very secretly to prevent Lu Zeng from doing anything.
The reason why I won't deal with Xu Jingxi is because I haven't figured out how to compensate this woman.
As for himself, he would never let the lingering feelings from the past hurt his current marriage and family.
This was the reason why he suddenly became restless in the afternoon. Subconsciously, he didn't want Huo Yan to know his past.
His wife followed him cleanly, and they finally got married. However, after a few days of peaceful days, this incident brought up a past incident.
It’s not that his wife is narrow-minded and intolerant. No matter who it is, they won’t let it go so easily.
After a long silence, Zhuang Zhoucheng whispered:
"If you meet a good man, get married. A woman feels safe only when she has a family."
"A good man? I've only ever met one good man. It was my stupidity that forced me to give up on him under the combined influence of my family. I regretted it a thousand times, and when I finally mustered the courage to look for him, he was already with someone else. If possible, I'd live my life like this. A single woman can live happily. But not being able to be a mother is my biggest regret as a woman..."
Xu Jingxi spoke slowly, took out a bottle of red wine and shook it at Zhuang Zhoucheng.
"Would you like a drink?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng nodded. It was a newly opened bottle, but he didn't think about it.
Xu Jingxi poured a glass for each of them and handed it to Zhuang Zhoucheng. At this time, they still kept a distance from each other.
Because he is a married man, Xu Jingxi made it clear that she has no interest in Saner. Zhuang Zhoucheng should rest assured that she is sincere and has no intention of interfering in other people's marriages.
Zhuang Zhoucheng felt full of guilt and just laughed it off.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I'll arrange for a good doctor to come over someday and take good care of your body. When you get married and have a family, there are many ways to have children."
Zhuang Zhou took on this responsibility and couldn't shirk it even if he wanted to. Many years later, people realized that he had actually harmed a woman to this extent.
He lost one child after another. Maybe at this age, when he hears about his children, his mood is completely different.
A few years ago, if he had known that a woman had taken his child and injured his body, he probably wouldn't have batted an eyelid.
Have you informed him about the child?
Did he agree?
Does the injury have anything to do with him?
It’s different now. I’m soft-hearted and want a child to be with me. Sometimes when I see a child, I can’t help but stop and look at it for a while.
Zhuang Zhoucheng drank glass after glass of wine and then made love to Xu Jingxi.
This woman became more and more charming the more he looked at her. In a trance, he saw his wife's face and chuckled softly.
"Little guy, running around again?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng held his wife in his arms gently, and Xu Jingxi put her arms around his neck:
"am I pretty?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng nodded.
Xu Jingxi asked again: "Compared to her?"
When Zhuang Zhoucheng put his lips together, he fell asleep...
Huo Yan couldn't sleep all night and called Zhuang Zhoucheng. The call went through, but no one answered. He called again, but the phone was turned off.
Huo Yan was holding her pillow upstairs like a madman, she couldn't sleep!
I guess insomnia has come back to her again!
