Su Yingxue only breathed a sigh of relief after Zhao Dakuang left.
She turned to look at Tan Zhengchu and whispered, "You are too cruel to Zhao Da Kuang. It seems that you two are natural nemesis."
Tan Zhengchu smiled slightly, with a hint of doting in his eyes: "If he dares to touch a hair on you, I will never let him go."
After that, he called the waiter and asked them to bring another set of bowls and chopsticks, then began to serve food to Su Yingxue: "Eat quickly, don't look at other men."
Su Yingxue felt warm in her heart, but she couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "You are so overbearing that it's unbearable!"
Tan Zhengchu just smiled and put a piece of tender beef into her bowl: "Eat it, my woman, and have less contact with other men in the future."
Su Yingxue picked up a piece of tender beef and mutton, dipped it lightly in the sauce, and put it into her mouth. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, this tastes great! Tan Zhengmo, you are really a master at finding delicious food."
Tan Zhengmo smiled slightly, with a hint of doting in his eyes: "As long as you like it. Although the location of this store is inconspicuous, the taste is absolutely first-class."
Tan Zhengchu sat beside Su Yingxue, watching her eat with relish, with a slight smile on his face. Although he didn't like this spicy and pungent food, as long as Su Yingxue liked it, he was willing to endure all the discomfort. His eyes fell on Tan Zhengmo from time to time, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes. Tan Zhengmo's identity was special, and there were too many grievances between him and Tan Zhengchu in the past. Tan Zhengchu had never really felt at ease with Su Yingxue being alone with him.
Tan Zhengmo seemed to notice Tan Zhengchu's gaze, but he didn't care. He had already decided to let go and fulfill Su Yingxue's wish. Tan Zhengmo smiled slightly and said calmly, "Zhengchu, don't worry, I won't interfere in Yingxue's life anymore."
Tan Zhengchu snorted coldly and did not respond. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, and it was obvious that he did not completely believe what Tan Zhengmo said.
Tan Zhengchu put down his chopsticks and said in a cold tone: "Zhengmo, I know you came back this time to see Yingxue. After the wedding, I hope you will return to Ruicheng immediately."
Tan Zhengmo was slightly stunned, then nodded: "Okay, I promise you."
Tan Zhengchu continued, "Your family's status is special. I don't want to pursue the past, but you must abide by the agreement. You can move freely in Ruicheng, Myanmar, but you cannot set foot in Pengcheng."
Tan Zhengmo was silent for a moment, and finally sighed: "Zhengchu, I know your concerns. I promise you that I will never break the agreement."
Su Yingxue listened to the conversation between the two, and her heart was full of doubts. She knew that there was a complicated grudge between Tan Zhengchu and Tan Zhengmo, but she didn't know the specific details.
She took a deep breath and whispered, "Zhengchu, Zhengmo, I don't want to interfere in the feud between you. But I hope you can live in peace."
Tan Zhengchu frowned slightly and said nothing.
Tan Zhengmo smiled and said, "Yingxue, don't worry. What happened between Zhengchu and I is over."
Su Yingxue's heart moved. She knew that what Tan Zhengmo said was not entirely true, but she also understood that there were some things she could not change. She gritted her teeth and finally made up her mind: "Zhengmo, I will never see you again. The grudge between you and Zhengchu is too deep, and I can't ignore his thoughts."
When Tan Zhengchu heard Su Yingxue's words, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes. He stood up and said calmly: "Yingxue, it's getting late, we should go back."
Su Yingxue nodded and stood up to leave. Tan Zhengchu walked to the door, turned back and said to Su Yingxue: "I'll wait for you outside."
Su Yingxue took a deep breath and turned to face Tan Zhengmo. Her eyes were firm: "Zhengmo, I know you treat me well, but my heart already belongs to Zhengchu. What's between us can only be the past."
Tan Zhengmo's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure: "Yingxue, I just hope you can be happy. If you want, we can be friends."
Su Yingxue shook her head and said firmly: "Zhengmo, some things cannot go back to the past. I hope you can take responsibility for your past actions and stop interfering in my life."
Tan Zhengmo was silent for a moment, and finally sighed: "Okay, Yingxue. I respect your decision. I hope you can be happy."
Su Yingxue smiled slightly, with a hint of relief in her smile: "Zhengmo, you also need to be happy. Let's say goodbye now."
After saying that, she turned and left, her figure looking particularly lonely under the light.
Tan Zhengmo looked at her back, a hint of loneliness flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly hidden.
He knew that from this moment on, all the grudges between them had disappeared.
Tan Zhengmo stood there, watching Su Yingxue leave in a hurry. After a long time, he turned around and sat down. He called her name softly, but his voice was drowned out by the night wind and he received no response.
Su Yingxue's figure gradually moved away and finally disappeared from his sight.
Tan Zhengmo's expression gradually became lonely. He fell into deep thought, recalling every word Su Yingxue had just said. A trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and he murmured to himself: "Losing her may be the retribution I deserve... God finally punished me."
He lowered his head slightly, feeling helpless. At this moment, he finally understood that once something is lost, it can never be recovered.
Su Yingxue walked out of the hot pot restaurant, the night wind brushed her cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness. She looked up and saw Tan Zhengchu standing at the bottom of the stairs, holding a cigarette in his right hand, with an indifferent expression.
The light from the street lamp shone on him, outlining his tall silhouette, making him look particularly lonely.
Su Yingxue's heart moved, and she quickly ran towards Tan Zhengchu, threw herself into his arms, and hugged his waist tightly: "Zhengchu, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have sneaked out just now."
Tan Zhengchu was slightly startled, and the cigarette in his hand almost fell. He loosened his hand and stamped on the cigarette butt heavily, fearing that it would burn Su Yingxue. A trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and he gently hugged her waist and whispered: "Silly, I know you feel bad. It's okay, I'm here."
Su Yingxue leaned in his arms, feeling the warmth coming from him, and a sense of security surged in her heart. She said softly: "Zhengchu, I will never see him again."
Tan Zhengchu was slightly startled, then nodded: "Yingxue, I know you feel bad, but you did the right thing. There are too many grievances between Tan Zhengmo and us, you can't stay out of it."
Su Yingxue raised her head and looked at him firmly: "Zhengchu, I have already made it very clear to him just now. Don't meet him again. I can't embarrass you because of these things."
