Chapter 98 All the men in the world are ashamed compared to you.
"Brother, if you're trying to persuade me to marry another woman as Mom wants, then don't bother, there's nothing to talk about."
Xu Shiran was sitting at his computer desk in his room when Xu Si'an took the clay figurine away before he could even touch it.
"Don't touch it, my girlfriend made this for me."
"You want to find a girlfriend yourself."
Xu Shiran chuckled softly: "Xiao An, Mom and Aunt Shen have a verbal engagement."
Xu Si'an said "Oh," and replied, "What does this have to do with me?"
"I don't like her. If you like her, then marry her. Anyway, we both have the surname Xu. I'm an ignorant playboy, and even a fool like me knows who to marry, just like a powerful CEO."
Xu Shiran was well aware of the facts he was expressing.
"Xiao An, Weiwei doesn't like me."
Xu Si'an closed the box: "So you like her?"
"Yes, I like it."
Xu Si'an dragged his suitcase past him: "Oh, then you marry her. I'm leaving. I won't be back unless something happens."
"I don't want to come back even if something comes up."
He didn't go home until a week before graduation, when Xu Shiran told him that the date for his engagement party with Shen Zhiwei had been set for the day after his graduation ceremony.
"Xiao An, we made an appointment yesterday to try on the custom-made engagement dress this afternoon, but I have an important business partner to meet with at the last minute. Can you go in my place?"
Xu Si'an had no classes in the afternoon, and his wife was also busy, so he agreed.
Who knew that the moment he met Shen Zhiwei, he would suspect that it was Xu Shiran's conspiracy.
————
On the sofa in the airport, Xu Si'an rested his cheek on one hand, while casually tapping and long-pressing the screen on his phone with the other.
"Xu Shiran, five years ago, on the day you tried on your dress, you knew Shen Zhiwei would be there too, right?"
Xu Shiran's silence told Xu Si'an the answer.
The man chuckled, pressed his tongue against his back teeth, grabbed the warm water Qiao Xu hadn't had a chance to drink from the table, and threw it at his face.
Xu Si'an threw the glass with force, and it hit Xu Shiran's jaw hard before falling to the ground.
Glass and water splashed everywhere.
"You fucking screwed me over."
If it weren't for that day, Qiao Xu wouldn't have broken up with him.
How could he have been dumped and then lost his dog?
As for the smile Qiao Xu mentioned, he never smiled at Shen Zhiwei. At the time, he was looking down at Qiao Xu's WeChat message, and when he looked up and saw Shen Zhiwei, he didn't have time to hide the smile on his face.
From just one angle, from just one misalignment, Qiao Xu saw a completely different picture.
"I······"
"What do you mean, 'you'?"
"You're a fucking coward. You know all the dirty things Shen Zhiwei did, but you just turn a blind eye."
"Compared to you, all the men in the world are truly ashamed. Young Master Xu is so generous."
"Being able to share a woman with one's brother-in-law."
Xu Si'an saw Qiao Xu's figure, stood up and walked to Xu Shiran: "Xu Shiran, I forgot to ask you how you felt at that engagement banquet five years ago."
"Seeing me being forced to stand in the place that should have been your engagement seat, did you ever want to kill me?"
Xu Shiran raised her eyes to meet Xu Si'an's eyes.
Remaining silent.
Xu Si'an sneered, "That's why I said you're spineless. If it were me, and someone dared to marry my Qiao Qiao, I would kill them without hesitation and then pay with my life."
"Unlike you, who drugged me and sent trash to my bed."
"Generous!"
“That’s the difference between you and me, Xu Shiran. You can compromise on anything for Shen Zhiwei, including knowing that the child in her belly might be Shen Zhao’s.”
"As for me, I'm stingy. My Qiaoqiao, body and soul, can only belong to me, Xu Si'an."
Qiao Xu stepped forward after they had finished talking and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to board the plane."
Xu Si'an took her hand and led her back to the sofa, taking her handbag in his hand.
As they reached the door, Xu Si'an glanced back at him and asked, "Xu Shiran, aren't you particularly proud of personally getting rid of Shen Zhiwei and your own child?"
"Oh, by the way, can't you stand up?"
Xu Si'an raised an eyebrow smugly: "We used to be brothers. What I've tasted, Young Master Xu should experience too."
He put his arm around Qiao Xu's waist and walked out.
Xu Shi then realized he understood what he was saying.
So that night, it was because...
Ignoring his disheveled state, he caught up with Xu Si'an, but before his hand could even touch Xu Si'an's shoulder, he was attacked.
Qiao Xu was pushed two steps away by him and stood to the side.
Xu Si'an landed a punch on Xu Shiran's face without any hesitation.
"This punch is a price to pay for what you did to me five years ago, Xu Shiran. You underestimated yourself."
"This punch cost me and Qiao Xu four years of separation."
The two men were fighting, attracting a large crowd of onlookers.
Qiao Xu stood aside without trying to stop him; when it came to fighting, Xu Shiran couldn't beat Xu Si'an.
Seeing that Xu Si'an was gaining the upper hand, Qiao Xu stood aside.
It wasn't until airport security arrived that Qiao Xu went up to Xu Si'an and pulled him aside, asking, "Are you tired?"
Qiao Xu took out a wet wipe from her bag and used it to wipe the specks of blood from Xu Si'an's finger bones.
Qiao Xu looked at Xu Shiran, whose face was bruised, and felt no sympathy whatsoever.
She had overheard half of their conversation.
Having vented his anger by hitting someone, Xu Si'an felt refreshed and told his assistant that he would go find compensation if needed.
On the plane, the man leaned on Qiao Xu's shoulder in a posture reminiscent of Lin Daiyu.
"Qiaoqiao, your wound hurts."
Qiao Xu rolled her eyes. She had hit him with more force than a tiger just now, and now her wounds hurt?
"It hurts, but when we get to Beijing, Grandpa Fang will give you a few acupuncture needles."
Qiao Xu leaned against him and closed her eyes to catch up on sleep.
Last night I spent almost an hour under the shower. Even though the water was warm, it's easy to catch a cold in the autumn weather.
I had an unusual burning sensation in my throat last night when I went to sleep.
It's even more intense when I wake up in the morning.
So, when he woke up in the morning, the smug man got a hard slap across the face from her.
Qiao Xu had already fallen asleep before the plane took off. Xu Si'an reclined her chair and took out the black suit jacket she always carried with her from her bag and covered her with it.
When I kissed her forehead, I realized that Qiao Xu's body temperature was higher than when she left home.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Si Shen before turning it off.
During the two or three-hour flight, Xu Si kept his eyes fixed on Qiao Xu the entire time.
Every few minutes, he would place his palm on Qiao Xu's forehead.
Qiao Xu was awakened by the feeling of weightlessness as the plane landed.
I woke up feeling dizzy and disoriented, even worse than before: "Have we arrived yet?"
"Hmm, does your head hurt?"
Xu Si'an unbuckled their seatbelts and pulled her into his arms. He lowered his head to gently kiss her red lips, but Qiao Xu instinctively dodged away.
"Don't kiss me randomly, I have a cold, you'll catch it."
Xu Si'an didn't care about whether it was contagious or not.
In the past, when Qiao Xu had a cold and fever, Xu Si'an would use his own methods to help her release the sweat from her body.
"sorry."
Qiao Xu lazily hummed in his arms, "Why didn't you apologize last night?"
