Chapter 47 Chapter 47 Don’t be discouraged, she won’t feel bad (……

After Shen Zhiye returned home, he began looking for projects that he could cooperate with the Xie family. Thinking that Ji Xiao was now with Xie Yanning, he felt uncomfortable all over.

Then he couldn't bear it anymore and called Zhao Cunli.

Zhao Cunli was a little confused when he received Shen Zhiye's call. Where did this young master get his number and why did he call him?

"Aren't you Yan Ning's boyfriend? Someone has come to her and seduced her, why don't you react at all?" Shen Zhiye asked.

Zhao Cunli:?

"Who? You?" Zhao Cunli asked back.

Shen Zhiye was stunned for a second. He thought Zhao Cunli had no temper at all, but now he was obviously trying to stab him on purpose.

"It's not me, it's Ji Xiao."

"Your roommate?"

"Ji Xiao is in Yan Ning's company now!" Shen Zhiye reminded again.

"At the company, it's probably business," Zhao Cunli said. "If it's work-related, what can I do?"

"Warn him to have some shame."

Zhao Cunli was silent for a few seconds: "If I ask you to stay away from her, will you listen?"

Shen Zhiye frowned and said nothing.

"You won't listen, and he probably won't listen either." Zhao Cunli knew very well that although he had the title of boyfriend, it was of no use to these two shameless people.

"I still have work to do, so I'll hang up first." Zhao Cunli said and hung up the phone.

Shen Zhiye:?

After hanging up the phone with Shen Zhiye, Zhao Cunli thought for a moment and sent a message to Xie Yanning.

Zhao Cunli: Shen Zhiye called me.

Five minutes later, Zhao Cunli received a call from Xie Yanning.

"What's going on? Why did he call you for no reason? Is he looking for trouble?" Xie Yanning asked.

"No, he just said that Ji Xiao is with you and asked me to take care of him." Zhao Cunli's voice was filled with a smile.

Xie Yanning was speechless, but this was indeed something Shen Zhiye would do.

"There's nothing going on between Ji Xiao and me." Xie Yanning poured himself a glass of water.

"I know. I'm just letting you know. I'm not looking for you about this matter." Zhao Cunli paused. "How about we meet on Saturday? It's been a while."

"Okay." Xie Yanning responded, "No need to work overtime?"

"No need, Senior Brother, let me rest for two days."

"Are you trying so hard to scare the boss to death?" Xie Yanning chuckled.

"It shouldn't be that bad."

"See you then."

"Um."

Xie Yanning hung up the phone and turned around to see Ji Xiao standing at the door with a cup.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. You were on the phone when I came in, and I was just about to leave."

"It's okay if you heard it. It's not a secret." Xie Yanning took a sip of water.

Ji Xiao poured a glass of water and deliberately lowered the flow of water, wanting to stay with Xie Yanning for a while longer, but Xie Yanning had already gone out.

He looked back at Xie Yanning, and she seemed to have completely forgotten him.

…

The team leader originally asked Xie Yanning to come back on Saturday, but Xie Yanning refused.

Xie Yanning had been working for so many years after all. She could feel that the team leader didn't like her and deliberately gave her some difficult tasks. After finding that she handled them well, he liked her even more.

Of course, he usually had a smile on his face, looked like a good old man, and spoke in a very eloquent way, as if he had taught her a lot, but in fact, it was all nonsense, and he didn't say anything real. If Xie Yanning was really an 18-year-old college student, she would probably think he was a good person.

Xie Yanning was not surprised. A man in his thirties or forties with little career development, if he was a little narrow-minded, would easily hate everything around him, especially capable young people, for fear that the young people would be promoted ahead of him. She had encountered many such cases when she was working before.

After communicating with several people in the same group and department and getting similar answers, she prepared to find an opportunity to fire this person. Some good talents were about to be squeezed out by this person.

When meeting Zhao Cunli on Saturday, Xie Yanning could tell at a glance that he was well dressed and had great attention to detail in his outfit.

She winked at Zhao Cunli, who gave him an embarrassed smile.

"Very handsome." Xie Yanning took Zhao Cunli to take several photos. As the year was coming to an end, the shopping mall had put up many decorations and many people were taking photos.

Zhao Cunli usually doesn't like to join in the fun, as he always feels embarrassed.

Now that she was being pulled by Xie Yanning, she felt a little restrained, but when she saw Xie Yanning who was also in the camera, she still gave a shy smile.

It's been a while since we've been out together, and we both had a blast. And the next time we meet, we'll probably be after the Lunar New Year.

Xie Yanning's company will be on holiday next week, and the Xie family has already made arrangements to go abroad to a warm place for vacation after the holiday.

As soon as the holiday came, Xie Yanning threw the computer aside, not wanting to look at that disgusting thing again.

Although she was free, Xie Yanning did not communicate more with others. She was addicted to surfing and had also tried skydiving several times.

On New Year's Eve, Zhao Cunli returned home with a bag on his back. He was not in a good mood. Just yesterday, Lin Zhi sent him a message asking him not to go back because someone saw him in City A and his parents already knew that he had a rich girlfriend.

Zhao Cunli was not planning to go back at first, but he was worried that if he didn't go back, those people would come directly to City A to find him, which would affect Xie Yanning, so he went back.

He stood at the door, looking at the greedy old face, and wanted to die with him.

…

Xie Yanning had been paying attention to the time difference, preparing to send blessings to his friends after midnight in China, and also received a few big red envelopes by the way.

I sent a message to the group at the right time, and everyone replied one after another. Xiao Yunqi also sent a video of fireworks and selfies in eight hundred different poses. Only Zhao Cunli didn't reply a single word.

Xie Yanning's intuition told her that Zhao Xiaobaihua might have encountered some problems. Every time she sent a message, Zhao Cunli replied very quickly.

[Lin Zhi: He was beaten into the hospital by his father...]

Xie Yanning: ???

Lin Zhi: There's a guy from the same village who's also attending university in City A. He saw you and Zhao Cunli, and his father wants him to ask you for money.

Xie Yanning: Is it serious? He didn't fight back?

[Lin Zhi: Oh, a fight, he fought back... This is the first time I've seen him fight back.]

[Lin Zhi: His father is extremely shameless. He might haunt you later.]

Lin Zhi sent a photo over. Xie Yanning clicked on it and took a look. It was Zhao Cunli's father. He didn't look like a good man. He looked ferocious. Zhao Cunli probably looked like his mother.

Xie Yanning knew what Lin Zhi meant by reminding her.

In the book, Zhao Cunli's father fell to his death after getting drunk.

I don’t know how long it will take, but I guess only then will Zhao Cunli be able to truly escape from the sea of ​​suffering.

"I've discovered that all the drama is on him alone." Xie Yanning sighed, sat up, and sent another message to Zhao Cunli, but still no reply.

The next day during the day, Zhao Cunli called her back.

"Sorry, I went to bed too early last night, so I didn't reply to your message. Are you having fun these days?"

"I already know the matter." Xie Yanning said.

Zhao Cunli's pretending to be relaxed and happy voice paused, and there was silence for a while.

"Do you need my help?" Xie Yanning would not give money, but he was willing to help in other places.

"No need." Zhao Cunli had already left the hospital and found a small hotel in town to stay in. He covered his face and sighed, "Aning, I..."

Zhao Cunli knew that it was right for him to break up with Xie Yanning. He knew very well what kind of people were in his family. He felt uncomfortable when he thought that Xie Yanning might be involved with that kind of person.

"Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year." Xie Yanning heard the other person's tone, realized what he was going to say, and reminded him, "When will you be back?"

"The third day of the New Year." Zhao Cunli said.

"I might not be back until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year." Xie Yanning paused, "Can we go out and play then?"

"Okay." Zhao Cunli responded.

After hanging up the phone, Xie Yanning leaned back in his chair and looked at the beach outside the window.

Sometimes looking at Zhao Cunli would remind her of herself in her previous life, but she was indeed much luckier than him.

"Xie Yanning, come out and play!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Xie Yanning was stunned for a second.

Xie Yanning stood up and looked out to see Shen Zhiye standing under the window. He had been secretly showing off his muscles on WeChat Moments every day, and today he finally had the chance to show them off openly.

"When did you come?" Xie Yanning asked curiously.

"Last night." Shen Zhiye chuckled, "Come and play volleyball."

Xie Yanning: ...

"I'm going to change my clothes." Xie Yanning retracted his head, "Wait for me."

"Okay, what do you want to drink?"

"Iced juice." Xie Yanning responded loudly.

Xie Yanning: Can you keep an eye on Zhao Cunli's situation? I have a bad feeling about this.

【System: OK.】

Xie Yanning changed his clothes and quickly went downstairs. When he walked into the sunshine, his originally depressed mood improved a lot.

Seeing that she and Shen Zhiye were going to compete, the parents of the Xie and Shen families also came over to watch.

Shen Zhiye, who wanted to show off his muscles, put on the T-shirt a little embarrassedly.

Xie Yanning: ...

She thought this person was so thick-skinned, but she didn't expect him to be embarrassed.

Xie Yanning played volleyball for the whole afternoon, and the two teams of parents also had a mixed match. In the end, Xie's parents narrowly won.

Mother Shen glanced at Father Shen’s big belly with disdain: “It’s useless.”

Father Shen sighed.

The next morning, when Xie Yanning and his mother went out shopping, they heard the system's exclamation.

[System: Zhao Cunli's father is dead! ]

Xie Yanning: Huh? How did he die?

Xie Yanning, who had seen a lot of ups and downs, was still stunned for a second when he heard the news, and his eyes widened slightly.

[System: He fell into the river drunk and froze to death... But someone saw Zhao Cunli and his father going to the river together at night.]

[System: Zhao Cunli is currently under investigation at the police station.]
