138. Chapter 138 Fate (Part 4)



"When we were in Liujiazhai, I mentioned to him that we should go to the city to get the marriage certificate before we go back." Liu Ran was half drunk and muttered, recounting the strangeness of Zhou Xuyang's performance. "He found other topics to evade the topic, and I didn't mention it again. He also acted as if nothing had happened."

"Mingming, he was the one who was most anxious to get the certificate before."

"After he came back, he came home late more often, often in the early hours of the morning, reeking of alcohol and perfume, which was really disgusting. When I asked him the next day, he would only say that he had business socializing."

"Ha, he's just a bar owner, what kind of social activities can he have? Could it be that he suddenly became ambitious and wanted to add new business sectors? I doubted it in my heart, but I still endured it again and again."

"Women, once they are in love, they will automatically block out a lot of obvious things. When they sober up and think back, they will find loopholes everywhere."

"There were a few times when I came back early, but he didn't touch me and went to bed right away." Liu Ran wiped her tears and cursed, "Damn it, he wanted to pester me every day before! He was so energetic like a beast!"

"Are bugs so scary?" Liu Ran grabbed Wen Qi and insisted that she raise her own baby. "Look, how cute they are!"

Wen Qi suppressed his discomfort and nodded in agreement, "It's really cute."

Liu Ran stared at her for a few seconds and curled his lips, "Forget it, you are obviously afraid too."

"But I won't stop being friends with you just because of this!" Wen Qi took out the treasure bag and said, "I also prepared a gift for you. I was planning to give it to you on the day the office opened, but now... I'll give it to you in advance."

Liu Ran drank the whole bottle of wine and was almost drunk. She shook her head and tried to focus her eyes. "What gift?"

Wen Qi handed over the palm-sized sachet and explained its use.

Liu Ran was silent for two seconds while holding the treasure bag, then she hugged her and suddenly burst into tears, "Sisters are still the best! What a lousy man, let him go to hell! Having sisters is enough for me!"

Wen Qi patted her back comfortingly, feeling relieved, "Cry, it will be better after you cry. Tomorrow is a new day."

Liu Ran fell asleep while crying. Wen Qi reluctantly carried her to the guest room, wiped her face considerately, then turned off the lights and left.

At the same time, Zhou Xuyang was still crying in the bar. His eyes were swollen as if he had just been punched twice. The slightest movement caused him to feel swollen and painful, but he couldn't stop crying.

Xing Kai sneered, "Cry your ass off! You still have the nerve to cry! I want to beat you up!"

Feng Ce's face was as cold as ice, "People are driven away by you, what's the point of crying?"

Xing Kai continued, "Zhou Xuyang, you are really outstanding. You dare to cheat!"

"I was forced to do it!" Zhou Xuyang cried hoarsely, "I just wanted to live a normal life, but after that night, every time I closed my eyes, I could see Liu Ran eating the bugs and becoming like that."

"What kind? What kind?" Xing Kai said angrily, "How can Liu Ran protect herself if she doesn't become like that? If you don't want her to become like that, then go and protect her!"

As if that wasn't enough, he added, "I don't know who was frightened to death, it's good that Liu Ran didn't despise you!"

Zhou Xuyang covered his face in shame, "...I tried, but I just can't accept it."

Feng Ce took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and said, "Is this the first day you knew she was a Gu Master?"

"No, but that was the first time I saw her use the Gu worm." Zhou Xuyang's tears flowed even more fiercely, "Why am I so timid? I wish I were braver."

Feng Ce stood up and was about to leave. There was no need for him to stay anymore.

Zhou Xuyang didn't realize his mistake at all. No matter how much he said, it was useless. It had nothing to do with being timid or not. It was that Zhou Xuyang denied Liu Ran's background from the bottom of his heart. He subconsciously didn't want to accept Liu Ran's identity, and then began to deny Liu Ran and reject the relationship between them.

Before leaving, Feng Ce said coldly: "If you miss Liu Ran, you are destined to be lonely for the rest of your life."

Xing Kai also stood up and said angrily, "Just wait till you regret it!"

He thought Feng Ce was just speaking in anger, but he didn't know that as the King of Fengdu, Feng Ce was very accurate in judging people. If he said that a person would be lonely and widowed for the rest of his life, then that was what he meant.

Zhou Xuyang's destined person is Liu Ran. If he misses her, he will never meet her again.

Xing Kai also opened the door and got into the car, still muttering, "You were so determined to marry me back then, how come you changed your mind so soon? Is love so fragile?" He looked at Feng Ce, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

Feng Ce looked at him coldly, "What do you want to say?"

Xing Kai hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth: "You and Wen Qi must be fine, otherwise, I don't dare to believe in love anymore."

Feng Ce closed his eyes, his tone was very calm but inexplicably firm, "Don't worry about us, we won't be separated even if everyone is separated."

Xing Kai felt a little comforted. After being silent for less than two seconds, he sighed again, "What do you think Zhou Xuyang is thinking?"

Feng Ce said calmly: "It is indeed difficult for ordinary people to accept that their significant other is different from ordinary people, especially when the woman is stronger than the man."

Xing Kai was puzzled, "But isn't it the same for you and Wen Qi? You just said that you would never separate."

Feng Ce opened his eyes and looked at him, stating the facts in a calm tone, "We are different."

Xing Kai agreed. Zhou Xuyang was indeed not as good as Feng Ce. He was not as good as him in terms of ability or status, not to mention his courage and boldness.

Take Feng Ce being cursed by hungry ghosts, for example. No one would have survived that long, and might have committed suicide on the first day. From a favored child of heaven to an "evil ghost" that everyone fears, this huge gap is enough to crush anyone.

But Feng Ce managed to survive and even recovered miraculously. Although the biggest reason for this was because he relied on Wen Qi, it was also amazing that he could survive until he met Wen Qi.

For Feng Ce at that time, to say that the whole year was a long time was an understatement.

Moreover, Wen Qi and Liu Ran have different identities.

Xing Kai tried to put himself in his shoes. He could still accept a Taoist priest who saw ghosts, but a poison master who raised insects was really not acceptable.

Therefore, there are actually essential differences between these two pairs and they cannot be compared at all.

Alas, Xing Kai sighed secretly, after all it was because they didn't understand each other thoroughly enough.

If Xing Kai had seen Liu Ran using the poisonous insect earlier, he might not have been so obsessed with it.

If Liu Ran had known that Zhou Xuyang was so cowardly, she might not have agreed to his proposal.

Everything, all the coincidences, is caused by fate.

When Xing Kai came out of his thoughts, he found that the car had stopped in the underground garage of his community.

Xing Kai was surprised and said, "Why are you so considerate today? You even sent it directly to my door."

Seeing that he had come to his senses, Feng Ce got out of the car first and said bluntly, "Liu Ran is at our house. It's not convenient for him to go back. Let me stay here tonight."

"That's what I told you." Xing Kai also got out of the car and said with a smile, "Have a couple of drinks?"

Feng Ce nodded, "Don't take out the wine that's less than five million."

Xing Kai's eyes flashed with pain, "Corrupt capitalist! I'm just a small restaurant owner. I don't have such good wine to treat you. You should go home."

At this moment, Feng Ce's cell phone rang. It was a photo sent by Wen Qi. When he clicked it, he froze.

Xing Kai noticed that his expression was not right, so he curiously leaned over to take a look. Two seconds later, he burst into laughter, "Hahahahahaha, it's just five million. I will risk my life to accompany you tonight!"

In the photo was Feng Ce’s empty wine bottle that was once worth more than 20 million.
