Chapter 155 Wei Chizheng, let's just forget about it.
Xie Nanzhi glanced at Wei Chizheng, then at Mu Jiaojiao, who was clinging to his arm. The way the two were so intimate made her feel like a clown.
Having not slept all night, her parched lips had lost all life. She opened her mouth, but after thinking about it, she decided against it.
Xie Nanzhi got up from the ground. Her legs were a little numb, and she staggered a step, but luckily she reached out and grabbed the wall for support.
After pausing for a moment, she continued walking, saying, "I'm going back now."
Xie Nanzhi really didn't want to confront Wei Chizheng like a shrew; she wanted to save face for both of them.
Xie Nanzhi looked away from him, and just as they were passing each other, Wei Chizheng grabbed her hand. "Zhizhi, I didn't mean to ignore your calls."
"Okay, I understand."
Xie Nanzhi's calm demeanor was precisely what made Wei Chizheng extremely uneasy.
She shook off his hold, her voice even lower, "I need to go back and rest."
She was really tired.
I was physically exhausted, and mentally I was even more exhausted.
Xie Nanzhi just wants to go back and take a good shower, then cover herself with a blanket and get some sleep to get herself in better shape.
She turned away hastily, not wanting to worry about his affairs anymore.
The elevator doors opened, and Xie Nanzhi stepped inside.
The moment the elevator doors closed, Wei Chizheng darted inside.
Mu Jiaojiao was stunned, her view blocked by a door.
Inside the elevator.
Wei Chizheng bent down, reached out and grasped Xie Nanzhi's shoulder, suddenly pulling her into his arms. He held her tightly, apologizing repeatedly.
He said he was sorry, he said he was wrong.
Xie Nanzhi remained silent.
She doesn't like being trapped in a bad relationship, and even if she cherishes it, she will cut her losses in time.
After a moment, Xie Nanzhi said, "Wei Chizheng, let's just forget about it."
The next second, she clearly felt the man behind her stiffen, his strong hand unconsciously tightening.
Wei Chizheng didn't speak, but his hands were trembling.
The door opened, and Xie Nanzhi strolled away.
However, this time Wei Chizheng did not follow her. He just stood outside the elevator watching her as her figure gradually disappeared into the distance.
He slowly reached out his hand, but in the end, it was all for naught.
The sky was already beginning to lighten with the first rays of dawn, and Xie Nanzhi felt a tightness in her chest.
She took a deep breath and got into the car.
When Wei Chizheng returned to the apartment, Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Ah Zheng, you are so weak, you can't keep fooling around. Go back and rest."
Mu Jiaojiao wanted to help him up, but Wei Chizheng deliberately avoided her this time, saying, "You should go back early too."
Mu Jiaojiao's hand hovered in the air. She awkwardly lowered it. "A-Zheng, is Miss Nan angry? She misunderstood our relationship. Should I go and explain to her?"
Why didn't you stop her just now?
Perhaps Wei Chizheng also felt that it was time to stop.
He was captivated by her goodness, her gentleness, and everything about her.
But he had to leave eventually. He didn't want to cause her any trouble, and he even hoped that she wouldn't remember him at all.
As for the sweet memories of the past few days, Wei Chizheng is already very satisfied.
He has no regrets.
Wei Chizheng said with a gloomy face, "No need."
Mu Jiaojiao pondered and roughly guessed what he was thinking.
"Okay, call me if you need anything. I'll be staying in Hong Kong for the time being."
"Um."
After Mu Jiaojiao left, Wei Chizheng also returned to his apartment.
He stood by the dimly lit window, took out his phone and fiddled with it, looking at the messages Xie Nanzhi had sent him over and over again.
Wei Chizheng, where are you?
[Wei Chizheng, I'm at your apartment. When are you coming back?]
[Wei Chizheng, I can come to you. Just send me your address.]
...
Are you in trouble?
[Are you in trouble again? Are you injured?]
[Wei Chizheng, don't scare me.]
If you are safe and sound, please call me back.
Wei Chizheng could almost picture the expression on her face when she sent the message. She must have been very anxious, but she didn't dare to call the police and could only wait there alone.
She hadn't slept all night, and the red streaks of blood betrayed her exhaustion. Heaven knows how heartbroken Wei Chizheng was when he saw her.
Suddenly, a sweet taste rose in Wei Chizheng's throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He frowned and clenched his fists.
Xie Nanzhi went home and fell asleep immediately, sleeping until sunset.
Wang Shufen had prepared dinner. She got up, stretched, and sat down at the table to start eating.
Wang Shufen was shocked by her appetite.
"You have such a good appetite?"
Xie Nanzhi stuffed rice into her mouth and muttered, "I didn't eat lunch, of course I'm hungry."
Wang Shufen thought it made sense and didn't think too much about it.
After cleaning up the dishes, Wang Shufen went downstairs to go square dancing with her old friends. Xie Nanzhi lazily nestled on the sofa, idly watching TV dramas.
During this time, Xie Nanzhi had a phone call with Mr. Dong.
Xie Nanzhi told Mr. Dong about Wang Jing, explaining that he was a perverted pursuer, which was why he proposed such a collaboration.
Upon hearing this, Elder Dong immediately understood.
The cargo ship cooperation was called off. In addition, Old Dong told another piece of gossip: "I heard that the Wang family, the Liu family and the Sun family are in trouble. Overnight, the Wang family was investigated by the tax authorities, the Liu family's factory caught fire, and the Sun family's resort had an accident. I don't know who they offended. They are really in a bad situation."
For some reason, Xie Nanzhi thought of Wang Jing.
She asked, "Did the Wang family, the Liu family, and the Sun family bring their wives to the guild meeting last night?"
Mr. Dong said, "That's right, all three of them brought their wives. These three families have always been on good terms."
If what was just a guess was now Xie Nanzhi was almost certain that these things were inextricably linked to Wang Jing.
Because it was too coincidental.
The wives of these three families are the ones who spoke ill of her behind her back last night.
Old Dong asked in confusion, "Do you know anything suspicious about this?"
Xie Nanzhi didn't say much, "I'm not really sure either."
After chatting for a couple more minutes, the two hung up the phone.
For the next few days, Xie Nanzhi was busy at the gallery, mostly painting and forgetting to eat or sleep.
Every day, she would receive all kinds of flowers, as well as jewelry and luxury goods, but Xie Nanzhi refused to accept any of them.
Every night, Xie Nanzhi could see that car whenever she walked out of the gallery.
That day, Xie Nanzhi and Xie Yuanyang left work together. Xie Yuanyang couldn't help but ask, "This car has been here every day for the past few days. I suppose the flowers and gifts were sent by him too."
Xie Nanzhi remained silent with a cold expression, which could be considered a tacit acquiescence.
Xie Yuanyang, "You're dating him?"
A few days ago she was all smiles, but these past few days she's been wilting like a frostbitten eggplant. She must have had a fight with her boyfriend, which is why this man is trying to appease her.
This is a man's usual tactic.
"It wasn't him."
Xie Yuanyang was stunned for a moment, then Xie Nanzhi asked again, "In addition, I've broken up with my boyfriend."
Xie Yuanyang, "..."
Is it that fast?
Xie Nanzhi ignored the man in the car, got into her own car, and drove away.
After driving for a while, Xie Nanzhi noticed in her rearview mirror that the car had been following her. Suddenly, the car behind her accelerated and blocked her way.
Xie Nanzhi was startled and couldn't brake in time, crashing straight into the car that was blocking her way.
