"Sister Feifei, you're so lucky! Battalion Commander Qiu is known as a young and promising talent around here. All the leading ladies in our cultural troupe are interested in him, but he's been so cold to them. It turns out he's doing this for Sister Feifei!"
Zhao Feifei was beaming with pride from the compliments.
"Brother Ze'an is just so reassuring. He was the same way when he was little. He only took care of me every day and never paid any attention to other girls..."
Qiu Ze'an stood at the entrance of the guesthouse and heard Zhao Feifei's nonsense. Qiu Ze'an sneered:
"I take you with me every day? How come I didn't know about this? Zhao Feifei, who are you engaged to? Whose fiancée are you? How come I didn't know I was engaged to you?"
Zhao Feifei bit her lower lip:
"Brother Ze'an, don't say that. Last time you went back, Aunt Zhou said that Uncle Qiu was going to my house so that our two families could discuss the marriage!"
"Let's go back to our room and talk things out. Let's not make a fool of ourselves in front of others."
Zhao Feifei was surprised that Qiu Zean returned so quickly.
It's a pity. If he could have gotten to know Commander Zhou's family, this matter could have been passed over to Commander Zhou, and Qiu Ze'an would have had no way to deny it.
Unless he throws away his future and bears the reputation of being a traitor and abandoning his childhood sweetheart.
Fortunately, she had been there for several days, and the news had spread far and wide; those who needed to know already knew.
Zhao Feifei wasn't a very decisive person, nor was she very bright. It was Aunt Zhou who suggested spreading rumors to her.
Now, Zhao Feifei only regrets not asking Aunt Zhou before leaving how she should deal with Qiu Ze'an if he came back early and broke off relations with her.
No, no, that's not right either. She should have brought Aunt Zhou along.
Yes, bring Aunt Zhou along, so that if anything happens, Aunt Zhou can give her some advice.
Moreover, Zhao Feifei had her own ulterior motives. No matter what, Aunt Zhou was Ze'an's stepmother and had given birth to a son and a daughter for Uncle Qiu. To a certain extent, her words could still represent the Qiu family.
She called Aunt Zhou right away, determined to persuade her to come no matter what.
Qiu Zean looked at Zhao Feifei with disdain:
"A man and a woman alone together, you expect me to come inside and talk to you? Zhao Feifei, you may be shameless, but I am!"
"Besides, I have nothing to hide from others, so I'll just say it here!"
Zhao Feifei's face turned pale, and she looked at Qiu Ze'an pleadingly:
"Brother Ze'an, we grew up together, how could you say that to me..."
Qiu Zean said sternly:
"Zhao Feifei, I'm trying to reason with you, not because I'm looking out for you, but to save face for Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao. If you continue to speak so vaguely, I'll have no choice but to go to the leadership and request an investigation!"
Qiu Zean couldn't let this matter escalate further; it would be too detrimental to him.
Even if he never marries, he would never compromise and be with Zhao Feifei.
However, if things continue to develop, even Uncle Zhao, if he doesn't want to ruin Zhao Feifei, will have to force him to marry her.
Put yourself in a do-or-die situation and you'll find a way out; self-examination is the fastest way to prove your innocence.
Zhao Feifei was startled, not expecting her brother Ze'an to be so resolute. Zhao Feifei was extremely anxious.
“Brother Ze’an, there’s no need for self-examination, I…”
Qiu Ze'an saw that even at this point, she was still trying to gloss over the matter, and he knew that she had been instructed by a "master". As for who the "master" was, he could figure it out with his toes.
Since she refused his offer of courtesy, he saw no need to consider Uncle Zhao's feelings any further. Qiu Ze'an turned and left, ignoring Zhao Feifei's calls from behind.
Song Chunwei witnessed the whole thing and naturally understood what was going on. He jogged to catch up with Qiu Ze'an.
"Ze'an, Ze'an, you really have nothing to do with this Zhao Feifei?"
Qiu Zean said irritably:
"Stop talking nonsense."
Song Chunwei sighed:
"How can you be so charming? Not only can you make the leading man of the performing arts troupe flutter around, but you can also make young women lose all sense of shame."
"What makes me inferior to you? You're just taller, fairer-skinned, thinner, and your face is slightly more even-shaped than mine, right?"
"These women are so shallow! Can't they appreciate a man's inner beauty?"
