Chapter 63 Chapter 63 A Gift
Breaking up? Why?
Li Chengchuan looked at Jiang Yuming with suspicion, and subconsciously listened attentively. Together with him, they squeezed in front of Xing Kui's house, sticking to her door and eavesdropping, with a secret expectation trembling in his eyes.
Jiang Yuming knew the reason. Xing Kui had been determined for the past five months. No matter how they tried to break her up, it had never worked. This was closely related to the fact that Xu Ye really met her requirements for solving the problem of being forced to get married.
However, Xu Ye's success and failure were both due to his age. The residents of the town where the Xing family lived were very enthusiastic and open-mouthed. During the day, Jiang Yuming casually asked around and gained a huge amount of information.
Originally, they all thought that Xing Kui had a relative who was ten years apart in age, so the age difference between Xu Ye and her would not be an obstacle.
Who would have thought that the man was older than the woman in that pair of relatives? Who would have thought that just by swapping the genders, outsiders' attitudes would be so different.
Although Jiang Yuming was excited about the upcoming breakup with Xing Kui, he was only worried about Xu Ye's misfortune and felt sorry for Xing Kui.
Xu Ye had better take good care of her tonight so that she has no time to feel sad.
As for Jiang Yuming himself, he could endure it a little longer tonight and lick away her tears in his dreams.
"Are you two sick?" The door creaked open suddenly, and Xing Kui's forehead twitched. She was at the entrance, and even if the two of them were whispering at her door, she could not hear what they were saying, but she could always hear any movement.
Li Chengchuan and Jiang Yuming, who were eavesdropping, said: ...
The two men stood up, and Jiang Yuming patted Li Chengchuan on the shoulder: "Old Li, I thought we walked into the wrong door. No wonder the key didn't match. Come on, let's go to your house for a drink."
I wasn't eavesdropping, I was opening the door... Jiang Yuming! Do you think she believes it? Li Chengchuan! Your ears are red!
Xing Kui glared at the two men walking away arm in arm and slammed the door.
He stood inside the door and counted down to five seconds before opening it again and glaring at the two people who were trying to turn back: "Why don't you leave!"
The two men looked left and right, they wanted to confirm whether Xing Kui really wanted to break up.
Xing Kui felt helpless. At this moment, Xu Ye walked out from behind her, holding her shoulders with his maltose-like hands. "We are still boyfriend and girlfriend. Brothers, please don't disturb me and your sister-in-law."
"Still?" So it's almost not! Xu Ye's 20th birthday is coming up in a few days, and Xing Kui must have thought about breaking up after that day.
Gui wants Xing Kui to be his sister-in-law, so please call her sister-in-law from now on.
Behind the door to the right of Xing Kui's house, in the deep darkness, a hand wearing a gold-gray watch raised a glass of water to his thin lips, and the man who had not been seen for many months took a sip of water calmly.
Sparkling crystal chandeliers are arranged neatly beside the huge fountain pool, elegant piano notes linger in the manor, partygoers are in elegant attire, guests are toasting each other, and waiters in black are walking around carrying expensive wines.
In the room at the top of the tallest building in the manor, behind a row of luxurious dresses, Xing Kui leaned against the wall, slightly tilting her neck and breathing, her insteps stretched straight under her almond-yellow dress.
The room was filled with the aroma of peaches, as the hot sweat caused the scent of shower gel to evaporate.
Xing Kui trembled slightly, and her weak toes stepped on Xu Ye's shoes, sweat dripping down. Her cheeks flushed, and she stared at Xu Ye's clothes that were dirty again.
Xu Ye's dark brown eyes were blurred, and he reached out to get the juice: "Baby, are you thirsty?"
Xing Kui drank half a cup in one breath. It was a mixed juice. When she went upstairs, she saw the chef juicing oranges and apples. The skin was so smooth that it reflected light, without any flaws.
Seeing her drinking juice, Xu Ye's Adam's apple rolled: "Baby, I want to drink it too."
The gorgeous lights illuminated the juice in the glass, and ripples appeared on the water's surface. Xing Kui narrowed her eyes, willing to indulge today's birthday girl. Xu Ye had occupied her attention for the past few days, preventing her from thinking about bad things.
But they had to reach the end in the end. Facing reality, he pressed a finger against his wheat-colored forehead: "Xu Ye, we have to break up."
"I don't want to break up." Xu Ye stood up and hugged her, his messy hair tangled around her neck, as if accompanied by hot and wet tears, "I'm afraid others will hurt you."
His chest was full, his emotions were swollen, and even though he said he didn't want to break up, he didn't make it difficult for Xing Kui, because staying would also hurt her. "Let's do it again."
Xing Kui looked at the clothes on the ground and asked, "Do you know how many waves of clothes have been delivered?"
Xu Ye said honestly: "I don't know. I was so happy that I fainted. The brothers outside should know."
Xing Kui: “…”
At the mention of his brother, brother Xu perked up and kissed her neck: "Have I kissed you more times than Brother Zhou and Brother Jiang? I want to do more than them before we break up."
"I'm a pervert, remember this." Xing Kui covered her face shyly, but when she spoke, it seemed as if she understood it.
At that time, Zhou Jing and I had a regular kissing pattern every day. The number of times could be calculated based on the number of days, and including the last day, it was about forty times.
She didn't count the times with Jiang Yuming, but Jiang Yuming herself said it was nineteen times on the first day she was with Xu Ye.
Xing Kui thought about it. She had been dating Xu Ye for five months. Even if they kissed once every other day, it would still be more than the two above. Hmm... the two above probably didn't count...
Of course, it counted. Among the throng of guests at the party, Zhou Jing swirled his champagne glass. He wore a simple gray-striped white shirt and suit pants. His tall and slender figure exuded a seemingly gentle yet actually aloof aura.
He didn't want to compare the number of times, as he thought it was boring. No matter how many times he kissed, he would not be the final winner. However, he was very smart. The idea flashed through his mind and a formula and its result came out.
Even if they kissed once every two days, Xu Ye would still surpass him.
Zhou Jing frowned slightly with displeasure, drank champagne and stared at the building behind him.
How long will Xu Ye keep pestering Kui Kui? She's already changed her clothes three times.
The same question also settled in the minds of the other two. Li Chengchuan and Jiang Yuming were standing side by side next to the red wine fountain in the corner. People kept approaching them to talk. Li Chengchuan hated unnecessary communication, while Jiang Yuming was a socialite who could get along with everyone. The two complemented each other and handled things with ease, but only on the surface.
Jiang Yuming, with a charming smile, just wanted to get rid of Li Chengchuan, rushed into the room where Xing Kui was, pushed Xu Ye aside, and let him take over.
He had only kissed nineteen times! Not even half as many as last week's, and a new bitch had surpassed him.
Li Chengchuan, with a cold and xenophobic face, was thinking about how to trick Jiang Yuming into opening Xu Ye's door and pulling him out.
"Lao Li, what are you thinking about?"
Thinking you're rather shameless, Li Chengchuan took out his phone and glanced at it: "What time is it? The birthday boy hasn't shown up yet."
Jiang Yuming narrowed his eyes and said, "So anxious."
Li Chengchuan pursed his lips, as if sighing in his heart, his sharp brows etched with a hint of irritation: "You don't understand how it feels to have a wife in love with a brother."
Jiang Yuming raised his eyebrows: "Yes, I don't understand."
In the top-floor room, Xing Kui changed into a black dress decorated with gold stars and walked out, breaking up with Xu Ye peacefully. The two walked downstairs together. On the next floor, Xie Chengwen was eating dessert.
As soon as he saw them, he raised his fork and said, "Aoi."
Xing Kui walked over. "Thank you, Auntie." She apologized. "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I said I'd give you an answer in October. I'm afraid I can't accept Jin Nuoyan's inheritance rights."
"It's okay, don't be nervous." Xie Chengwen had already heard Xu Ye's explanation of the situation and smiled kindly, "If you accept that situation, I won't give it to you."
She lowered her head with a smile, "How can I believe that a person who doesn't care about her mother can be good to my son." Xie Chengwen forked a piece of exquisite little dessert. Such a beautiful dessert made by the world's top pastry chef was something that Xing's mother had never tasted in her life.
Xing's mother devoted her entire life to her family. Before she got married, her father sent her to a factory after finishing junior high school to work and earn money to support the family. After she got married, her life simply changed from supporting one family to supporting three: her parents', her own, and her husband's parents.
Unlike Xing's father who betrayed his wife and daughter, Xing's mother has been honest and upright for decades.
Xie Chengwen believes that Xing Kui's growth into an outstanding person is due to the efforts of Xing's mother. Perhaps Xing's mother was also very sharp-minded when she was young. She would teach her daughter to strive for success and would argue fiercely with Xing's father when he said "girls should do this and that".
Xing Kui may not care about the outside world's views, but her mother will be hurt by this. If Xing Kui ignores her mother and insists on having her own way, Xie Chengwen will immediately take action to break up the couple.
But Xing Kui didn't.
So at this moment, Xie Chengwen admires Xing Kui even more than before.
She had seen too many children who had read more books than their mothers, but in the end they resented their mothers for their ignorance and for restricting their hands and feet. Xing Kui was different from them.
She is very much like pure gold, but because of her goodness, she also floats in the turbulent waves.
Xie Chengwen picked up the dessert plate on the table. The carved edge of the plate was painted with the "G·PROMISE" logo. "You go downstairs first. I have something private to discuss with my son."
After Xing Kui left, Xu Ye looked at his mother and said, "Mom, what about the heir of the family..."
Xie Chengwen had discussed this matter with him before, saying that he hoped his wife could inherit it. Now Xing Kui and Xu Ye broke up, but Xu Ye felt that he would not fall in love with anyone else.
Xie Chengwen sat at the round table, her hands crossed, "Son, do you think Mom is old?"
Xu Ye denied: "No."
Xie Chengwen nodded. "Yeah, Mom thinks so too. Mom can still dominate the world for a few more decades. Let's let Kui try her luck first. I'm curious about what she'll become in the end."
Xu Ye's eyes lit up: "What do you mean?"
Xie Chengwen clapped her hands. "I'm so satisfied with this heir! In the future, she won't be my daughter-in-law, but the daughter-in-law of some old Li or old Zhou family. I'm so anxious! Tell me what you're going to do next, quickly."
Having the support of the elders would undoubtedly add a lot of points. Xu Ye curled his lips and said, "I'm going to give Xing Kui a gift..."
In the party hall, Xing Kui walked in, wearing a black and gold dress, like a sunflower under the night sky. Next to the red wine fountain in the corner, Li Chengchuan finally smiled: "I prepared a gift for Xing Kui."
Jiang Yuming: What a coincidence, he has one too.
Zhou Jing in the distance put down his champagne glass. He hadn't seen Kuikui for a long time, so he naturally had to prepare a gift for Kuikui.
Outside the Xu family manor, a luxury car stopped and a man with a belly as big as two footballs got out of the back seat.
Li Zhengjun took out a box of milk from the back seat of the car, turned his head, and said, "Oh my God, his daughter's boyfriend's house is so luxurious!"
During the day, four cars - which looked shiny to Li Zhengjun - came to his hometown and specifically asked to pick him up to attend Xu Ye's birthday party. Xing Chunxia wanted to go with them, but the drivers refused.
What birthday party? Li Zhengjun thought Xing Kui was refusing to break up with Xu Ye, so he rushed over to talk to Xu Ye's parents. Xing's mother insisted he bring a carton of milk, even though he didn't want to bring anything else.
Carrying the milk, Li Zhengjun looked around at the gate of the manor and felt that this place was probably rented. Even if it was not rented, the Xu family should be just averagely wealthy.
What wealthy businessman lives in the mountains and loves to be bitten by mosquitoes? If he were rich, he would definitely live in a high-rise building in the city center.
The driver accompanied him to the entrance, where a bodyguard stood and asked to check the invitation.
Li Zhengjun: "What is it?"
The bodyguard looked him up and down. His body shape made him look like a rich man, but his dress was nothing like that. Then he looked at the milk in his hand. It was Jin Nuoyan's rival brand!
Immediately, the bodyguard stopped them in a stern voice: "It's Master Xu's birthday. No one can enter without an invitation."
Li Zhengjun was an honest man. He didn't dare to act recklessly when the bodyguards spoke harshly. He cowered and looked at the driver beside him for help: "Are you driving to the wrong place?"
"That's right." The driver stepped forward. "He's the father of the young master's girlfriend, Miss Xing Kui. You'll know if you go in and ask."
The bodyguard froze. He had seen Xing Kui when the young master brought her back today. Forgive him for his low level of education, but seeing how the young master took such good care of his girlfriend, there were only three words in his mind: love her terribly.
It’s over. Didn’t he speak rudely to the young master’s father-in-law just now?
Li Zhengjun was even dumber than him, carrying the milk, at a loss as to what to do. What young master, what Miss Xing Kui, and why did the bodyguard's attitude suddenly change... "Driver, this..."
The driver, mindful of his master's instructions, kept his mouth shut the entire way until this moment, when he finally spilled the beans: "Oh, do you know Jin Nuoyan? The Jin Nuoyan with shops all over the country and even the world, the Jin Nuoyan with a market capitalization of over 100 billion. Your daughter's boyfriend is the son of Jin Nuoyan's boss, his only son."
Li Zhengjun felt dizzy. Jin Nuoyan, 100 billion, daughter, boyfriend... It was over. Hadn't he been very rude to his son-in-law a few days ago?
It was a long way from the entrance of the manor to the party center. Li Zhengjun's legs were shaking when he was led in by the Xu family's servants, but he walked more and more vigorously, looking left and right.
Xing Kui didn't expect Li Zhengjun to appear here. She walked to the fountain and saw Xie Chengwen and Xu Ye, who had received the notification, walking towards her.
Following her gaze, Li Zhengjun also saw the mother and son who looked similar. He guessed the identity of the older woman and smiled: "This is my mother-in-law, right?"
The eight-year age difference was nothing. He had never seen such a wealthy family in his life. As long as there was enough money, Li Zhengjun would cover his ears and nod.
Xie Chengwen smiled slightly: "Not anymore, my son and your daughter broke up not long ago."
Li Zhengjun almost lost his balance and glared at Xing Kui: "This child is willful and has been spoiled by her mother since she was a child. I think this matter can be discussed."
"What are you discussing?"
Xing Kui clenched her fists. Li Zhengjun didn't mention the ferocious look on his face when he asked her to break up with Xu Ye. He even blamed Xing's mother. He asked her to break up, and then asked her to get back together. Why? She didn't care what the cheating man thought!
She glanced at Xie Chengwen and Xu Ye. "You said it yourself, 'No matter how fast Xu Ye runs,' you don't think a family like this would give you a second chance, do you? Words spoken are like spilled water. Congratulations, you've spilled 100 billion."
Li Zhengjun was shocked. There was no second chance. He threw out 100 billion. Xie Chengwen agreed and said, "Yes, congratulations." Li Zhengjun's eyes widened, and he lost his balance and was about to fall. 100 billion! That was 100 billion!
It was so cool! Seeing the cheating man get humiliated, Xing Kui felt a sense of relief. She'd wanted to see Li Zhengjun's face when he learned he'd lost hundreds of billions, and that night, it became reality. Who brought Li Zhengjun? And only Li Zhengjun, not Xing's mother. What a genius! I really have to thank this person.
"Who sent you here?" Xing Kui asked.
Li Zhengjun was still immersed in the regret of missing out on 100 billion yuan. He said weakly: "I took a car."
Xing Kui looked around. Xu Ye was standing on her left, Zhou Jing was coming from behind her left, and Li Chengchuan and Jiang Yuming were also coming from behind her right. Was the person helping her among these four?
"What car?"
"A car that shines."
The four men all arrived near Xing Kui. They all thought of the same gift for Xing Kui, but Li Zhengjun was alone and could only take one car.
The driver would definitely report to the employer which car the person got on. They knew the answer in their hearts, but the other three saw that Li Zhengjun could not explain it clearly and wanted to claim some credit.
So much so that four people had to speak at the same time.
"It's mine." Suddenly, Xie Chengwen put her arm around Xing Kui's shoulder and said, "Kui, I want to meet your parents. You won't blame me, will you?"
Li Chengchuan & Zhou Jing & Jiang Yuming: "..."
Three sword-like gazes pierced Xu Ye. How could your mother steal his/his/his credit?
Xu Ye touched his nose. His mother even took away his credit.
The car that Li Zhengjun got on was sent by Xu Ye, so it's okay for Xie Chengwen to take the credit.
When Li Zhengjun arrived, there were four cars to pick him up. When he was about to leave, no one offered to see him off. He didn't have the courage to ask the rich people, so he could only give Xing Kui a cold look.
"Let's see what you'll do in the future if you don't want a rich husband."
It’s none of your business what happens. Xing Kui ignored him. Seeing Li Zhengjun taking a taxi and leaving dejectedly, she also said goodbye to Xie Chengwen and the others.
Previously, she had three options for her career planning, and now the answer has been decided.
She will look for information about the MCN company when she goes home tonight.
Other things were happening on the same night. For example, all the brothers in the Brotherhood of Love group received a message about changes in group members.
[“3丨” removed “run” from the group chat]
For example, Xu Ye, who was kicked out of the group, stood in Xu's gym and sent a message to a brother.
[I think Xing Kui is quite good. You have a deep misunderstanding of her. Go get to know her better.]
