Chapter 104 A romantic drama

Xie Xu chatted with Xu Jing and Gu Wenjun alone for about half an hour before ending the conversation.

When Xu Jing came over, her eyes were a little red and her face looked a little haggard. Fortunately, Gu Wenjun was with her. Xie Xu and Xie Huaiqian were standing outside and did not come in immediately.

Xu Jing came over and said to Chen Jiaohua, "Mom, let's go down first. Xie Xu wants to talk to Chen Zan alone."

After hearing this, Chen Jiaohua became alert: "What does he want to do? He didn't care about her for twenty years. Now that he knows he has such a daughter, he wants to take her back, right?"

Xu Jing comforted her, "Mom, he won't."

After saying that, he glanced at Chen Zhan again and said, "Let them talk among themselves. You have to trust your granddaughter too."

After listening to this, Chen Jiaohua's excitement gradually subsided.

When leaving, Xie Xu nodded slightly to the old man to show his respect.

Xie Huaiqian glanced inside and said, "Fourth Uncle, I'll go see Aunt Xu off."

Xie Xu came in and asked his secretary to wait outside.

Xie Xu has a very unique temperament, that elegant scholarly air. Chen Zan actually has many similarities with him.

When the man who knew the truth saw the girl again, he felt mixed emotions and slowly said, "When we met in the capital before, you lied to me and said your mother's last name wasn't Xu. Did you recognize me as your father then?"

Chen Zan turned the teacup in his hand with a cold look in his eyes. He didn't look at him, but he didn't say anything either.

Xie Xu sat down across from her and changed his strategy. "Do you want to know how Zhou Jingyu is doing now?"

The little girl paused, then slowly raised her head and looked straight at him.

"I know that during your hospitalization, the people around you must have been hiding information about Zhou Jingyu from you." Xie Xu continued, "I can tell you."

Chen Zhan's palms tightened, and he finally spoke, "Where is he?"

"Beijing." Xie Xu: "On the day of the car accident, he was standing in the middle. His injuries were more serious than yours. He was sent to the emergency room with very serious injuries. The next day, the Zhou family flew him back to Beijing for better treatment."

When Chen Zan heard this, she felt her chest slowly being squeezed and a tingling pain arose. So what she saw on the day of the car accident was not an illusion. Zhou Jingyu really wanted to save her at the risk of his life.

Xie Xu had been in the officialdom for so many years that he knew best what to say to open the other person's heart. "Chen Zhan, if you are so easily moved, then you are very wrong."

Chen Zhan gritted his teeth and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Before I came, someone from the Zhou family had already come. Do you really think that the old lady of the Zhou family would only give you the Jing Mansion as compensation because of your grandmother?"

Chen Zan was silent.

"Chen Zhan, that truck wasn't coming for you. The Wei family's target was Zhou Jingyu, and it just so happened that you were the one sitting in that truck that day."

"Also, Zhou Jingyu's original purpose in coming to Rongchuan was to use the Wei family as a stepping stone. You were just a chess piece he used to confuse his enemies..."

Chen Zhan interrupted him, "You don't have to tell me this, I know everything."

Since the beginning of the year, Zhou Jingyu has frequently taken her to private dinners and large-scale banquets. Mrs. Song and other wives of officials and wealthy people all flatter her, and Zhou Jingyu indulges her to climb over his head. She is not stupid, so how could she not see the trick?

Zhou Jingyu was promoted and returned to Beijing, so he was transferred back, and the relationship between them naturally ended. Chen Zan was also happy to help him, and even took the initiative to accompany him in many plays.

So she didn't need anyone to remind her that she, Chen Zan, was really deceived by the powerful people in the powerful family. She was very clear-headed!

Chen Zhan looked at him coldly, "Director Xie, can we stop talking nonsense?"

Xie Xu looked at her defensive and even aggressive eyes, stunned for a moment, and then sighed helplessly, "I remember that you were not a rude child. Huai Qian and the kids in Yushan all spoke very well of you."

Chen Zhan raised the corner of his mouth in a mocking tone: "Why, Director Xie, do you want to teach me a lesson?"

A wry smile crossed Xie Xu's face, "I don't think I'm qualified."

She turned her face away and pursed her lips.

I thought I could be calm.

Xie Xu: "Okay, then let me tell you something you don't know. Before I came here, I looked into your relationship with the Wei family. Have you ever thought about why the Wei family suddenly sent you to Zhou Jingyu's bed, and why that kid from the Wei family insisted on pestering you for those two days? Chen Zan, if Zhou Jingyu hadn't instigated this and hadn't given you any hints, you wouldn't have recognized the situation so quickly and turned to him."

Chen Zan was shocked.

Xie Xu: "Everyone in the Forty-Nine City who is obsessed with power is a scheming person. If he truly loves you, he wouldn't expose you to the public at this dangerous moment."

Chen Zhan listened, feeling as if his heart was being strangled by a frozen hand. His breathing became difficult, and he clutched the wheelchair armrests tightly to prevent himself from losing his composure!

"Another thing you may not know is that Wei Yunxi is dead." Xie Xu continued, "He was in a car accident abroad and was crushed to death on the spot. It was the work of someone from the city of Beijing."

Wei Yunxi bullied men and women and did all kinds of bad things. Chen Zan felt relieved when he died, but his face became visibly paler.

"So, Director Xie, you're also from the city of Beijing. You've told me so much, but what's the point?"

"Zhou Jingyu's transfer order will be issued within two months. If you're attracted to him and continue to stay in the Xu family, there's no chance for you to be with him. I know your mother wants you to study abroad, and I also know you're interested in applying for a graduate degree at Peking University."

Xie Xu finally explained his purpose, his words tinged with bitterness. "Chen Zan, when I broke up with your mother, it was very ugly, and I didn't even know you existed. Ever since I found out you're my daughter, I've always felt guilty. If possible, as your father, I want to take you back to the Xie family and make amends to you."

Chen Zhan found this ridiculous. She tried to remain calm and said, "Director Xie, I haven't always had a father, and I won't have one starting today. I don't need your compensation. If you feel guilty, I hope you won't bother us anymore, okay?"

Xie Xu was not one to force others to do things. He had anticipated Chen Zhan's attitude and took a step back, saying, "Chen Zhan, I will always be your family. Come to me whenever you need me."

——

Xie Xu took a few days off and came to Rongchuan specifically to deal with the Wei family's funeral. After the matter was settled, he naturally left with his people.

But he left Xie Huaiqian in Rongchuan. He went home every few days, but was turned away every time, which made Chen Jiao displeased.

Xie Huaiqian also had a hard time. His fourth uncle couldn't stay in Rongchuan for long, so he had to do the job he left behind.

It seemed that Fourth Uncle thought highly of him. The mother and daughter of the Xu family were on guard against him every day like they were guarding against a thief. As for Chen Zan, he had no chance to see him.

We could still see each other during the first one or two weeks when the hospital changed the dressings, but after the injury healed, we just had to wait for the plaster to be removed, and we wouldn’t see each other again.

Chen Zan recently had his cell phone taken away by Xu Jing, so he stayed at home and prepared to study abroad. Xu Anan called Chen Jiaohua several times. The old lady was very easy to talk to and invited her to come over to visit.

Xu Jing lost her trust in Xu Anan because she had hidden the fact that she helped Chen Zan with Zhou Jingyu. Every time she came home, Xu Jing was there. Xu Anan was fearless at home except for Xu Jing.

Being stared at like this by a mother like this every day is really too stressful. She only came over and sat for two minutes, looked at Chen Zan, and then left.

In mid-August, Chen Zan's plaster could finally be removed. Xu Jing's band had a performance that day, so she asked Gu Wenjun to take them to the hospital, and Xu Anan also came.

When she went downstairs, Xie Huaiqian had already parked his car outside the unit door, looking like he was waiting to show his courtesy, but Chen Jiaohua still disliked him. There was nothing she could do about it since his last name was Xie.

Xu Anan also knew something about Chen Zan's life experience. She quietly touched her arm and said, "This is the person from the Xie family. I heard he's your cousin?"

Chen Zan said coldly: "He is not my cousin."

Xu Anan raised her eyebrows slightly. Why are all these young men from wealthy families so handsome?

Xie Huaiqian looked at him coldly again, and drove obediently behind, sending information about Chen Zan to his fourth uncle at any time.

Let Chen Jiaohua wait downstairs first. It was inconvenient for her to go up and down the hospital, so let Xu Anan push her to remove the plaster.

After sitting in a wheelchair for a month, Chen Zan was finally able to walk normally, and she couldn't help but smile.

Xu Anan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. "I thought you were going to die. It turns out that smiling more is the key to survival."

In order to avoid talking about Chen Zan's sad story, everyone deliberately avoided mentioning that person.

Xu Anan took the bill and went downstairs to pay first, while Chen Zan went to the bathroom by himself.

When they came out, they suddenly saw a few burly men in black suits in front of them. Seeing this, the other people who came out of the toilet quickened their pace and left, fearing that they would get into trouble.

Bai Qi stood in front of her and said respectfully, "Ms. Chen, Mr. Zhou wants to see you."
