Unexpectedly, Jiang Xucheng's adoptive parents did not object, and they happily said on the phone that they would rush back before our engagement party.
We went to the hotel to book a private room. The hotel owner, Song Biao, is a good friend of Jiang Xucheng.
We were promised that we would be provided with the best food and drinks on that day and the venue would be cleared.
Song Biao told me: "There is a newly opened bridal shop next to our hotel."
"The styles and other things inside are all the latest. The sun is nice today, take her in to try it out."
Although we are just engaged, all kinds of beautiful wedding dresses are an irresistible temptation for me.
I was so happy that I couldn't wait to go to the bridal shop.
Should I choose a Chinese or Western wedding dress? Should I choose tassels or hairpins as my hair accessories?
"Zhang Baizhi."
Suddenly I heard Xu Qiran calling my name with gritted teeth, and I looked towards the source of the voice blankly.
Xu Qiran had just come in from the hotel. He ignored Jiang Xucheng beside me and grabbed my arm with a gloomy face.
I was furious when I saw him dare to appear in front of me: "Mr. Xu, didn't your friend say that you were lying in the hospital? How come you still have the leisure and elegance to come to the hotel?"
"Please also stop interfering in my affairs from now on!"
"Why are you so heartless? We had a good past together. Have you forgotten it? I already know I was wrong. I even drove Yanyan away. Why don't you change your mind?"
Xu Qiran had dark circles under his eyes and he went out without even shaving. Now he no longer had the image of a playboy in the hotel.
He even dared to mention Yanyan to me.
Like it was my fault that he drove that little girl away.
Jiang Xuran punched Xu Qiran in the chest, and Xu Qiran took a few steps back.
The hand holding my arm loosened.
Xu Qiran looked at us in disbelief and said in a broken voice: "Zhang Baizhi, you can only be mine!"
I ignored his madness.
Jiang Xucheng worriedly pulled him behind him and said, "Whether you are hurt or not, it's all my fault for not taking good care of you. There will definitely not be a next time."
"You can only be mine!"
Xu Qiran stared at me closely and kept repeating this sentence.
"That's enough for you!"
Jiang Xucheng suddenly took a big step and rushed towards Xu Qiran: "Enough, no matter who you are, my woman is not someone you can mess with."
This time Jiang Xucheng took ruthless action.
He punched Xu Qiran hard and he was so beaten that he had no strength to resist.
Soon, Xu Qiran's face was covered with bruises.
I felt that if the fight continued someone would die, so I quickly stopped Jiang Xucheng.
Jiang Xucheng stopped decisively.
I said coldly to Xu Qiran: "I'll let you go first. If you come to cause trouble again next time, my husband won't let you go."
When Xu Qiran heard me call Jiang Xuran "husband", his face was filled with grief.

Jiang Xucheng held me in his arms and went downstairs. I planned to go to the bridal shop as I had decided before.
But we didn't expect that after we took two steps, Xu Qiran took advantage of Jiang Xucheng's unpreparedness and pushed him hard on the back.
Jiang Xucheng was pushed and rolled down the stairs.
He held me tightly in his arms to protect me from any harm.
Although the stairs are not long, some scratches are inevitable.
"Bai Zhi, I beg you, please come with me."
"I already feel the pain of my past mistakes. I will make it up to you in the future."
Xu Qiran struggled to come to me and looked at me pleadingly, as if he was humbled to the dust.
Jiang Xuran grabbed my sleeve and shook his head: "Don't go."
As Xu Qiran was crying, I focused on helping Jiang Xucheng up.
I looked at Xu Qiran and said angrily, "I don't want to see your face anymore. It makes me sick."
Xu Qiran's face turned pale in an instant, and his feet became unsteady and tilted, as if he would run out of strength and fall down in the next second.
