Chapter 275 What if I disagree?
Pei Jingchuan didn't speak, but his provocative gaze was clearly visible.
Then, he slowly looked at Xie Nanzhi, "Nanzhi, don't keep me waiting too long."
Xie Nanzhi frowned deeply, not sparing a single glance.
Pei Jingchuan wasn't in a hurry; he was quite certain of Xie Nanzhi's choice. He glanced at Wei Chizheng one last time before striding away.
As Pei Jingchuan disappeared, the air seemed to freeze, and even the dust particles hung suspended in mid-air, afraid to fall.
The two looked at each other, Xie Nanzhi pursed her lips, and after a few seconds, she walked up to Wei Chizheng with tense steps.
She seemed unsure how to begin, or perhaps unwilling to face the situation. In the end, it was Wei Chizheng who broke the silence first.
He stared at her, his haggard face radiating anger. "So, you're planning to marry that scumbag?"
Xie Nanzhi met his gaze, which seemed about to shatter at any moment, and said, "Wei Chizheng, I had no choice, did I?"
Wei Chizheng's hands, hanging by his sides, slowly clenched, his knuckles bulging like jagged rocks, turning white as if they were about to crack. His Adam's apple bobbed heavily on his tense neck, causing his temples to throb, and the veins beneath his skin were faintly visible.
He stared intently at her. "What if I disagree?"
His gaze was intense, sharp, and assertive.
Xie Nanzhi thought that he must be unwilling to accept it.
I am extremely unwilling to accept this.
But……
Xie Nanzhi frowned slightly, forcing a cold expression in her eyes. "Wei Chizheng's identity ceased to exist three years ago, and even his name was canceled long ago, which means our marriage no longer exists. Therefore, I can choose who to marry without your consent."
Although he revealed his identity to the outside world, his name was no longer registered in the public security bureau's household registration system. Wei Chizheng's current identity documents all belong to Steven.
To be precise, Xie Nanzhi is indeed single now.
Wei Chizheng looked pained, his knuckles digging deep into his palms, oblivious to the blood seeping out. Only the muffled groans escaping from his throat betrayed his suppressed suffering.
Xie Nanzhi looked away blankly and slowly turned around, but in that instant, Wei Chizheng hugged her from behind.
She didn't resist, nor could she bear to resist.
Sometimes, she even wondered if things would have been different if she had never met Wei Chizheng.
He was still the second young master of the Wei family, that powerful and invincible man with no weaknesses. He wouldn't be troubled by love, wouldn't lose his composure because of a woman, and certainly wouldn't be in such pain as he was now.
His chin rested against her shoulder, his body trembling.
Wei Chizheng remained silent, his heavy breathing and every inch of his skin conveying sorrow. Xie Nanzhi suppressed the stinging in her nose and said, "Pei Jingchuan is right. I can't just watch Wang Shufen die. So, please don't make things difficult for me anymore. Let's... leave it at that."
Her voice was like a piece of iron polished by sandpaper, hoarse and rough, mixed with the sourness in her nasal cavity, echoing softly in the empty corridor.
After a while, Wei Chizheng let go of her hand.
The next second, Xie Nanzhi walked away without looking back.
Back in her ward, Xie Nanzhi stood by the window for a long time until her eyes became sore before she took out her phone and called Zhou Mubin.
Zhou Mubin has been in the industry for so long and has a wide network of connections. He is also using his connections to help Wang Shufen find a suitable kidney donor.
When he received Xie Nanzhi's call, he thought she was asking about this matter. "Nanzhi, I'm so sorry, there's no news yet."
Even with Wei Chizheng's powerful intelligence network, there's been no news yet, so she didn't really have high hopes for Zhou Mubin either.
Xie Nanzhi said, "I'm not calling you about this."
Zhou Mubin wondered, could there be anything more urgent than this?
Then Xie Nanzhi said, "I want to transfer all my assets and shares to Wei Chizheng. Can you help me with that?"
Zhou Mubin was taken aback. "So eager?"
He knew Xie Nanzhi had always had this idea. After all, the start-up capital of Nanzheng Group was Wei Chizheng's private property, but at this critical juncture, was it necessary to be distracted by this matter?
Xie Nanzhi didn't explain much, "Yes, as soon as possible, preferably complete the procedures in the next two days."
Zhou Mubin had a bad feeling; he felt that this matter was not simple.
Zhou Mubin asked tentatively, "Nanzhi, are you hiding something from me?"
Xie Nanzhi said, "Go and take care of it first, we'll talk about it when we have time."
She didn't want to talk about it, and Zhou Mubin didn't pry. He figured she was smart enough to have her reasons for doing so.
Zhou Mubin: "Okay, I'll let you know when it's done."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Mubin was about to get to work when Jin Moli pushed open the office door and walked in.
Holding a cup of coffee, she saw Zhou Mubin about to leave and quickly asked, "Lawyer Zhou, are you going out?"
Zhou Mubin buttoned up his suit jacket, looking somewhat hurried. "Hmm."
Jin Moli leaned closer and asked, "Are you going to meet a client? Do you want me to come with you?"
Zhou Mubin didn't hide anything from her, "Nanzhi asked me to help her with some things, so you don't need to come along."
It was his childhood friend again.
Jin Moli's eyes showed dissatisfaction. She put down her coffee and took Zhou Mubin's arm. "Lawyer Zhou, you are so busy every day that you can't spare a moment. Miss Nan is really inconsiderate. Why does she need your help with everything? Even if you are childhood friends, you should know your limits."
Jin Moli didn't want Zhou Mubin and Xie Nanzhi to have much contact.
She always thought Xie Nanzhi and Xibei were troublemakers who were always trying to break them up, so she often said things intentionally or unintentionally to drive a wedge between them.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mubin frowned and pushed her hand away. "Xiao Mo, I don't want to hear you say such things again. Nan Zhi and Xi Bei are childhood friends with me. I'm willing to do anything for them."
Zhou Mubin was furious, but Jin Moli calmed down instead. "Lawyer Zhou, have you misunderstood something? I didn't mean anything by it."
Zhou Mubin glanced at her, his brows furrowing even more.
Why is it that the more time I spend with her, the less wonderful she seems at first?
Looking at Jin Moli, Zhou Mubin suddenly thought of Cui Xiao.
Cui Xiao never pried into his private affairs, and she would never take advantage of their relationship to do anything presumptuous.
Jin Moli felt uncomfortable under his gaze, so she tried to appease him, "Lawyer Zhou, try the hand-ground coffee I made for you. How does it taste?"
Jin Moli picked up the cup of coffee again and handed it to him, eagerly awaiting his reaction.
Zhou Mubin took a deep breath and finally took the drink.
This isn't the flavor he likes.
It seems that no one can brew coffee that tastes like Cui Xiao's.
Zhou Mubin didn't comment. After putting down his coffee, he said softly, "If I can't come back after get off work, you'll have to take a taxi home yourself."
Having just displeased him, Jin Moli didn't want to say anything more provocative. "Okay, I'll call you when I get home."
After giving a nod, Zhou Mubin left.
Afterwards, Jin Moli walked out of Zhou Mubin's office and suddenly heard people talking about her.
