What did you say to him?
Sitting in Li Weidong's car, Zhang Yue looked on with curiosity: "I think he was so angry he was about to vomit blood."
Li Weidong smiled and said, "It's nothing, just some funny stories from my childhood."
"I don't believe it!"
Zhang Yue pouted: "You must have told me some secret. Tell me, okay?"
She was fair-skinned and delicate, and her coquettish manner made her even more adorable.
Li Weidong didn't even glance at it, and just kept driving.
Zhang Yue didn't care about his attitude and instead spoke more enthusiastically: "Brother Weidong, let me tell you, I was tricked into coming out today and thought I was definitely going to suffer."
"Then you suddenly appeared, and when I saw you, do you know how excited I was?"
She gestured excitedly: "In my eyes, you're like a god who descended from heaven. Including this time, you've saved me three times!"
At this point, Zhang Yue leaned closer to Li Weidong, winked, and said, "Look, we're so destined to meet, and as the ancients said, a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's own body."
"Why don't you marry me?"
Li Weidong couldn't dodge the question any longer, so he had to say, "I thought I had made myself very clear."
"I don't care."
Zhang Yue waved her hand: "How old is Zhou Xiaoye this year? Seventeen? She's just a young girl. Besides, I've heard that you got engaged to her because her parents wanted to sell her to an old man for a dowry, right?"
"You're such a good person, sacrificing your reputation to get engaged to her and save her from dire straits. I can totally understand that. After all, if you have the ability to save someone, no one would stand idly by."
"But that doesn't mean you have to ruin your whole life!"
She became more and more serious: "You're already twenty-four years old this year. People your age already have children in school. Are you still going to wait for her?"
"Besides, what if she falls for someone else after she goes to university and sees a wider world?"
"But I'm different."
Zhang Yue raised her delicate chin, her face full of pride: "I'm twenty-three years old this year, the same age as you, and I'm more educated, as you know from last time, so we have a lot to talk about."
"My dad is the county magistrate, my family is well-off. If you marry me, with my dad's power, our business can grow bigger and bigger, and..."
That's enough.
Li Weidong interrupted her: "No matter how good your conditions are, you're not her."
Zhang Yue was stunned.
After a long silence, she forced a smile and said, "Then tell me, what's so good about her?"
Li Weidong thought of Zhou Xiaoye, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly: "She doesn't need to be good in any way. As long as it's her, I like her."
If when he was first reborn, he wanted to help Zhou Xiaoye only to make up for the regrets of his previous life, then after spending so much time together in this life, he had already fallen in love with Zhou Xiaoye.
Zhang Yue persisted, "I won't accept this until you give me specifics!"
Li Weidong sighed: "How should I put it?"
“I’ve already said that I love her as long as she’s the one. If I have to say something, I was arrested because of a wrongful conviction before, and she thought something had happened to me, so she set fire to Tiger’s house.”
"And he wanted to commit suicide with me."
With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?
Zhang Yue was stunned.
Li Weidong glanced at her and softened his tone: "You said it yourself, you're good-looking and have no shortage of suitors, so why hang yourself on one tree?"
Zhang Yue turned her head away from him and said only, "No one else is as good as you."
Li Weidong was completely speechless and simply stopped talking. After dropping her off at her apartment building, he took out the watch.
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Yue was a little annoyed.
Li Weidong explained, "I know you wanted to give me a thank-you gift, but the gift you gave put a lot of pressure on my fiancée, so please don't give me anything again."
After saying that, she added, "If possible, please don't come to my house again. There should never be any relationship between us in the first place."
Zhang Yue was stunned.
The next second, her eyes reddened, and she snatched the watch, saying, "What's so great about it? If I don't want to go, I don't want to go. Who cares!"
She got off the bus and left, wiping away a tear.
Li Weidong breathed a sigh of relief. Although he felt a little reluctant, it was great that this trouble was resolved no matter what!
He watched Zhang Yue enter the family building before turning his car around and heading back to the company.
...
Now let's talk about Tiger.
He was furious after being beaten up by Li Weidong.
"Li Weidong, I'll never forgive you!"
Tiger limped home, his hatred overflowing.
Before I even got home, I ran into one of Master Hei's henchmen.
"Hey, Tiger, what have you been up to?"
The man who came was named Wang Yongjun. His status in Master Hei's group was similar to that of Hu Zi; both were low-level henchmen.
Wang Yongjun looked Hu Zi up and down and sneered, "You got beaten up? You can't do this. A man of the dignified Fourth Master Hei, getting beaten up like this when you go out, you've disgraced our Fourth Master."
Tiger was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk to anyone, but he didn't dare to offend anyone, so he reluctantly said, "What can we do if we can't beat them?"
"If you can't beat them, call for help!"
Wang Yongjun gave him advice: "If you can't beat them alone, call on a few more brothers and you'll have no trouble beating them."
Tiger rolled his eyes: "Why should I call you 'people'? What gives me the right to call you 'people'?"
The reason why Master Hei took him in was because he claimed to be Li Weidong's cousin and knew Li Weidong, which gave him the opportunity to join the sect.
For the past six months, it's been as if Master Hei has forgotten about him. He hasn't looked for him much at all. If he weren't still living in Master Hei's house, he would have doubted whether he was even considered one of Master Hei's men anymore.
