Chapter 565 The Pot Fell from the Sky
Cheng Rui didn't want Cheng Hui to help him offend anyone, so he had to take care of his own affairs.
"I think we need to get to know each other better. It would be a bit hasty to get married now," said Cheng Rui.
Zuo Lan's eyes darkened, he really had changed his mind!
She clutched her collar tightly with both hands and collapsed, "We are already like this, what else do you want to know? Do you want to be Chen Shimei? Don't want to take responsibility?"
Cheng Rui was stunned.
Cheng Jianming was also stunned for a moment, then looked at Cheng Rui with disapproval. So he had already taken advantage of the girl? It would be inhuman to break up again!
"Cheng Rui!" he scolded, "You should think about when to get married!"
"Dad!" Cheng Rui looked at him speechlessly. Why didn't he trust him at all? Is he that kind of person?
"Dad." Cheng Hui also said, "Don't be led by the nose by someone's suggestive gesture. My brother is not that kind of person."
Cheng Rui was so moved that he almost cried. It had to be his sister!
Cheng Jianming also realized that it was a bit arbitrary to judge such a big thing based on a girl's words and actions.
Cheng Hui looked at Zuo Lan and really couldn't tell that her brother was a bootlicker in his previous life. He gave Zuo Lan whatever she wanted and did whatever she said. He was simply a crazy wife-doting man.
But Zuo Lan always acted arrogant and condescending, and being nice to him seemed like a favor.
Unexpectedly, he was just not passionate about her in this life. Instead, she became anxious and couldn't wait to marry him, and was willing to resort to any tricks.
"Zuo Lan, what do you mean by what you just said? What did my brother do to you? Did he take advantage of you?" Cheng Hui asked directly.
Zuo Lan didn't expect her to ask directly. Isn't she ashamed of herself as a little girl? Oh, no, she is married and has children. I was almost deceived by her face again!
"I don't want to tell anyone else about what happened between him and me." Zuo Lan said, clutching her collar.
"Don't want to tell anyone else? I thought you would tell everyone when you walked out of this door that my brother bullied you, acted like a hooligan to you, and forced him to marry you." Cheng Hui said.
"You..." Zuo Lan looked at her in surprise, with some panic in her eyes.
Cheng Rui's indifference towards her in the past few months was obvious to the naked eye. He used to write her only one letter a week, but later on, she was the only one who wrote to him, and he never replied!
Ask him for money, but he doesn't have a penny!
When I called him, he couldn't say more than a few words before hanging up, saying he had something else to do.
In fact, the only thing between them was to say "break up" explicitly.
Of course she was anxious.
In the past, she was a little dissatisfied with Cheng Rui's conditions. He was good-looking, but he was too honest and had no interest. He couldn't write poetry, sing or coax people. His only advantage was that he spent money on her.
But he didn't have much money, he was just an ordinary worker.
Good family background? In fact, it's just average. If you really get married, you can only have a bedroom in the Cheng family. The whole family lives together and you don't have your own house at all.
Now, I won’t give her a penny.
But Cheng Hui got up.
Cheng Rui also benefited from this. His salary was raised by two levels, and he heard that his company would soon allocate him a house.
In comparison, this is a very good condition.
The Zuo family discussed it and decided to capture Cheng Rui.
If it's hard to catch, you have to resort to some tricks.
There is no better way than to accuse a man of being a hooligan.
"What? Keep talking." Cheng Hui asked, "Do you really think so?"
"I didn't!" Zuo Lan said, "Cheng Rui and I have been together for so many years, and I haven't done anything to let him down. Of course he will marry me, without me forcing him!"
Cheng Rui frowned. He did not miss the panic in Zuo Lan's eyes just now.
Cheng Hui said, "It's a new society now. We advocate free love and give young people the opportunity to make mistakes. It's not the old society where you have to get married once you're in a relationship. If either party feels that it's not right during the relationship, they can break up. Now my brother is breaking up with you."
"Ah?" Cheng Rui was at a loss for a moment. Such difficult words were said just now?
"Oh." He responded without refutation.
"Why? I don't agree! Why do you want to break up just like that? I have wasted these years of youth. You have to give me a reasonable reason!" Zuo Lan shouted.
"The reason." Cheng Hui glanced at Cheng Jianming and said, "The reason is that my father doesn't agree. He doesn't like you and doesn't want you to be his daughter-in-law. Is this a sufficient reason?"
"Ah?" Cheng Jianming was even more confused. It was like a bolt from the blue!
But he was stunned for a few seconds and nodded stiffly, and said to Zuo Lan: "Yes, that's right, I don't agree, I'm sorry, what compensation do you want?"
Parents’ disapproval is the best reason for breaking up!
As for why the parents disagree? It could be that you have too much hair, too little hair, you are taller, shorter, fatter, thinner, whiter, darker, you speak louder, your voice is rougher, you have smaller eyes, a flatter nose, you have freckles on your face, dot, dot, dot... ten thousand reasons!
Any one will work!
With the excuse of "parents don't agree", Zuo Lan can't get anything done even if she goes out and talks nonsense.
If Cheng Rui was as good at acting as Cheng Kai, he would only need to shed a few tears and pretend to be helpless, and he could clear himself of all charges and put the blame on Cheng Jianming.
It's not that he plays with women and wastes their youth. He is sincere and wants to get married, but his father just won't agree! Threaten to die! What can he do?
Zuo Lan was confused. She had expected that discussing marriage today might not go smoothly, but the expected result was what Cheng Rui had said before: wait a little longer.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Hui's negotiation failed! Even the subsequent road was blocked for her!
what to do?
"Brother, have you touched her in the past few years? Are there any other actions besides holding hands?" Cheng Hui suddenly asked.
Cheng Rui blushed and shook his head frantically: "Just holding hands! Only holding hands! We didn't hold hands a few times!"
Nowadays, serious people are very conservative when they are in love. They are not allowed to get too close in public, let alone hold hands.
And it is even more impossible to get along in private, there must be outsiders present.
It's hard for a decent person to hold hands.
Of course, non-serious people can still have fun, as there are always more solutions than problems.
Cheng Hui asked Zuo Lan again: "Do you agree with what he said? Besides holding your hand, did he do anything else that was indecent to you?"
Zuo Lan sat there, not saying a word, neither nodding nor shaking her head.
She was still too young and didn't know how to answer in the best way for herself. She wanted to go home to her mother!
"You bullied me!" She suddenly covered her face and ran away.
Cheng Hui said to Cheng Jianming: "You can see it, this person has ulterior motives and is not a good match for my brother."
Cheng Jianming sighed and said nothing.
He believed Cheng Rui, and if he said no, then no.
Besides, if it really happened, Zuo Lan would not run away and would have made a fuss long ago.
Cheng Hui said to Jiang Quan, who was trying hard to pretend he didn't exist in the corner of the living room, "Call Chen Fei, there is a new mission."
Chen Fei arrived soon. Cheng Hui told him the address of Zuo Lan's house and said, "Go to her house and keep an eye on it. Listen to the wall and see if they are going to cause any trouble."
Chen Fei went there immediately.
While riding his bike, he felt that he really liked his current job!
He doesn't like sitting in the office and repeating mechanical work every day, day after day, year after year. It seems that his life can be seen at a glance. Sometimes he feels so scared that his scalp numbs at the thought.
It’s nothing like it is now, doing different things every day, meeting different people, and seeing different scenery. It’s fresh and exciting!
He arrived at Zuo Lan's backyard and just stood next to the back window when he heard that her family had gathered everyone together and was holding a meeting.
"We can't let Cheng Rui go so easily! We have to find a way to deal with him!" said Zuo Lan's father.
