Chapter 23 Baby, I just want to be with you
When I came out of the bathroom, Xu Zhijian had already prepared breakfast and was casually browsing his phone.
Wen Nian patiently sat down opposite him and got straight to the point: "How much?"
"Oh." Without even looking up, he casually said a number: "Twenty."
The next second, the money was directly transferred to my account via WeChat.
A message popped up on his phone. He paused for a moment and couldn't help laughing: "There's no need to be so anxious. We're just friends."
I really want to roll my eyes.
Wen Nian silently endured it and ate by himself.
The meal was very peaceful.
Knowing that she didn't want to pay attention to him, Xu Zhijian was still thinking about the game in his mind and didn't say much.
Soon, the waiter brought the clothes.
Wen Nian changed and was about to leave immediately.
Before leaving, Xu Zhijian handed her a plastic bag, "The things you bought last night."
She took it hesitantly and looked down.
A few dolls, a bunch of hairpins, bracelets, and a bottle of wine...these are indeed some small items that I might buy.
Once again lamenting the consequences of drinking.
"How much?"
"Oh, it's not expensive, maybe two hundred thousand."
...I'll turn you.
The three words were stuck in his throat and he finally swallowed them back.
"These things are worth two hundred thousand!?"
As she asked the question, she suddenly realized that they were on the Xili cruise ship. The prices were ridiculously high, especially for luxury goods like this. The prices marked on them were probably things she had never seen before.
As expected, Xu Zhijian immediately said, "Everything else is fine, except that bottle of wine is a bit expensive."
Wen Nian almost vomited blood: "You won't stop me?"
"You keep trying to get under the counter, and there's nothing I can do about it. But I don't mind. If you insist on paying it back, it's not impossible."
Two hundred thousand...
Her current monthly salary is 30,000 yuan, and she needs to save for seven months even if she doesn't eat or drink to pay it back.
Hardness shouldn't come so early.
She opened her mouth, and after a long while, she managed to force out a sentence: "How about this, I will pay you in installments and pay you 50,000 a year."
Xu Zhijian smiled.
Wanting to be a bitch again, he bent over and leaned closer: "Sure, you can pay me back one yuan a year, then we can be together for two hundred thousand years."
He dragged out the last syllable of his voice, seeming to be very happy.
The clear eyes in front of me were close at hand, with a sly smile.
Wen Nian was almost bewitched by him again and took two steps back.
"Who wants to be with you?" She pushed him away mercilessly: "Money and people are two different things, don't get involved."
After saying that, he left with a snort, opened the door and left.
Just when he was about to chase after him, Xu Zhijian's cell phone happened to ring.
It's his mother.
Because he was busy and had no common topics, Qing Shuyi rarely called him. It was either not good news or it was about Xu Xiaoyu.
—
Wen Nian went back to the room first and found that Shen Wan was not there.
No reply to the message.
She was puzzled and made a phone call.
After a long time, the other party finally answered, and the voice was deliberately lowered, obviously a little nervous: "Hello."
"Hey, Wan Wan, where are you? I went back to my room and didn't see you."
"As for me... I'm eating outside and will be back soon. How are you? Did Xu Zhijian bully you?"
"No." She rarely saw Shen Wan speak so stiffly, and immediately realized that something was wrong.
"...Did something happen to you? Why are you so cautious? Where are you? Do you need me to come over?"
The cruise ship had complete security, so there wouldn't be any accidents, so she asked directly.
Just at this moment, a male voice came from the microphone: "It's so noisy... Can't I sleep?"
"No need! No need!" Shen Wan said hurriedly: "Hang up first, I'll talk to you when I get back!"
Beep—
Wen Nian held the hung-up phone in his hand, still not recovering from the shock.
Male?
She quickly glanced inside the room—
The suitcase was still in the same condition as when I left, and the quilt was lying neatly on the bed.
She...could it be that she didn't come back last night and spent the night with a guy?
—
Until the wedding started, Shen Wan had not returned.
Wen Nian was sure that she was fine. Apart from being eager to know what she had done and who that man was, there was nothing to worry about.
I found a corner in the hall to watch the ceremony.
The decoration here is even more breathtaking, magnificent and golden, with clusters of flowers and crystals tied with ribbons, just like the castle where a princess lives in an animation.
As the piano music slowly sounded, the hall-like doors opened to both sides, and the first thing that came into view was a light purple wedding dress, the wide skirt sparkling with starlight under the sunlight.
Wen Nian's eyes lit up with admiration, and his eyes almost grew on the bride.
"it's beautiful……"
She is very good at providing emotional value. As soon as the host spoke, she immediately clapped her hands vigorously with a standard gentle smile on her face.
Because I was too focused, I was startled by a sudden sound beside my ear.
"Do you like it? If you do, we can get married here in the future."
"Why you again?" Facing that nasty face, Wen Nian's expression changed 360 degrees: "You are harder to get rid of than even a dog-skin plaster."
Xu Zhijian raised his eyebrows, leaned lazily against the pillar, and said proudly: "The dog-skin plaster is not as good as me."
"nerve."
Seeing that she was about to leave, he hurried to catch up, "Hey, why are you leaving so fast? The wedding has just begun."
“If Shen Wan doesn’t play with you, I’ll play with you.”
"I can do everything she can do, and I can still do what she can't do."
After leaving the door, Wen Nian kept walking, wishing he could cover his ears, and only turned back when there was no road ahead.
Xu Zhijian grabbed her arm.
"What?" She pulled twice.
"Just in time, let me show you something fun." He turned her shoulder and gestured, "Look there."
This is the second floor. Through the railing, you can just see the scene on the first floor clearly——
In the corner of the open-air restaurant, a man and a woman were sitting.
The two of them stood close together, fingers interlocked. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that they had a close relationship.
Wen Nian was startled and immediately recognized that the girl was Shen Wan.
Xu Zhijian's voice was full of gloating, "She's having a great time with her boyfriend, but you've been abandoned, Wen Xiaonian."
How can there be such a shabby person in the world?
She was silent for two seconds with a dark face, then broke free from his embrace and asked, "Aren't you bored?"
"Isn't it fun? It's so interesting." He caught up and stood side by side with her.
Wen Nian: "Are you free, Xu Zhijian?"
"No, a lot of people want to play with me, but I just want to be with you, baby."
"Stop yelling!"
Xu Zhijian didn't take it seriously: "What's wrong? Isn't that how you girls call each other?"
"You're a girl so you can scream!?"
"...I'm crazy for talking to you." Wen Nian let out a breath, quickened his pace, and caught up with him in two steps.
"Hey, let me ask you something. Is your painter friend busy lately?"
She was impatient: "What does it have to do with you?"
"I heard that in order to refuse my sister's class, she explained to my mother hundreds of messages and even made a video call for over an hour to express her guilt."
"I'm just curious, how busy must one be to have this kind of perseverance?"
Wen Nian: "..."
Didn’t A Yue say that she refused very straightforwardly?
How humble this sounds.
She paused and looked at him: "Did your mother threaten her?"
