Chapter 323 Who Says I'm a Gold Digger 23



Lin Dan didn't know why she was crying. She had always been emotionally indifferent. No matter how big the problem was, she could face it calmly and rarely had any emotional fluctuations. If she hadn't been extremely tired, she wouldn't have lost control like this. Her heart was like a desert, looking vast but also barren. But even so, she wanted to have some persistence instead of living like a complete machine, so she kept her bottom line and took on responsibilities. Now, after she cried, her dry heart felt moistened and filled, and she felt so relaxed.

She stepped out of Han Xu's arms and wiped her red eyes embarrassedly, but Han Xu hugged her back again, chuckled and stroked her scalp, "Do you feel better after crying?" he asked very gently.

"I feel much better." Lin Dan nodded slightly.

"So you see, when you can't bear it anymore, you can actually seek help and comfort from others. Being weak is not a shameful thing." Han Xu gently rubbed her neck.

Lin Dan moved uncomfortably, but still carefully rested her chin on the man's shoulder, trying out what it felt like to rely on someone wholeheartedly. It's not that she doesn't know how to ask for help from others, she just doesn't know who to trust.

Seeing the two people hugging each other, Zeng Zhenyuan got angry for no reason. He knocked on the car window and urged, "Okay, let's go to the hospital. I've already made an appointment with the doctor. Anyway, I have to have surgery a day earlier or later, so why not go today?"

Lin Dan has never been a fussy person, and after calming down, she quickly agreed. The three of them drove to the hospital and had a physical examination first. Han Xu helped Lin Dan carry her coat, and Zeng Zhenyuan took her cell phone and put it in his pocket. The two stood on either side of the corridor and waited quietly.

One of them is gentle and elegant, the other is extremely handsome, but they are both tall and dressed very elegantly, and it is obvious at first glance that they are not ordinary people. The nurses passing by looked back frequently, wondering which patient could have been accompanied by two such outstanding men.

After a while, their assistants rushed to the hospital at the same time, each holding a bulging bag in their hands. The two took the bag and looked at it, then caught a glimpse of the other doing the same action, both with subtle expressions.

"What are you holding?" Zeng Zhenyuan raised his eyebrows.

"Some things Xiaodan needs for his hospitalization." Han Xu answered gently and politely.

"What a coincidence, I have prepared something too. Your stuff is a bit extra, why don't you ask your assistant to take it back." Zeng Zhenyuan opened his handbag and showed Han Xu the towel, pajamas, toothpaste, toothbrush, cup and other things inside.

Han Xu sneered: "Why is the extra stuff mine and not yours?"

Zeng Zhenyuan sighed and said with a half-smile: "Okay, give both to Lin Dan and let her choose. Isn't your company preparing to go public recently? Why don't you go back to work overtime?"

"Company matters are not as important as Xiao Dan." Han Xu did not hide his feelings for Lin Dan at all, and then said: "Isn't your fiancée back? Why don't you take her home?"

Zeng Zhenyuan said nonchalantly: "I gave up looking for Ouyang Xue a month ago." When he said this, his eyes dimmed slightly, and he immediately sent a WeChat message to his brother, asking him to find the media to release the news that he and Ouyang Xue had broken off their engagement. If it weren't for Lin Dan, he might never be able to get rid of his obsession with Ouyang Xue. He originally thought it was love, but looking back now, it seems that the unwillingness is far greater than the love.

He had seen Ouyang Xue cry too many times, but never once did he feel as sad as when he saw Lin Dan cry. It is said that the tears of a woman who cries a lot are worthless, and this is true to some extent. When Ouyang Xue cried, he would feel annoyed and anxious, but he would never empathize with her. He didn't even know what she was resisting. He never puts himself in the other person's shoes and just keeps giving or taking.

However, when facing Lin Dan, he had to be much more cautious, because he clearly felt how strong and independent Lin Dan was, and it would be an insult to her to regard her as a vassal or subordinate. This is probably the biggest difference between Ouyang Xue and Lin Dan, right?

Treating a vassal is different from treating an individual. Zeng Zhenyuan thought about it and laughed softly. Only then did he realize how ignorant he had been before. Ouyang Xue has a beautiful face, but apart from her beautiful appearance, what else does she have? He tried hard to recall the other person's strengths, but found them to be unremarkable.

If Ouyang Xue were put in Lin Dan's position, what would she do? What else could she do except cry in the man's arms? The more Zeng Zhenyuan thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed to him, and he couldn't help but take out a cigar and put it in his mouth. Just at this moment, Zeng Yixuan called him and asked excitedly: "Brother, are you my real brother? Have you been transported through time by others?"

"Speak human language!" Zeng Zhenyuan was a little impatient.

"How did you figure it out? Are you willing to give up that little devil Ouyang Xue?" Zeng Yixiuan asked uncertainly.

"What are you reluctant to do? Go and do your work. I won't be back today."

"Why don't you come back? Go drink again?"

"Lin Dan needs surgery, I have to stay with her in the hospital."

"Oh, then you wait, I'll come too." Zeng Yixiuan hung up the phone with a snap, moving as fast as the wind.

Zeng Zhenyuan could only grind his teeth while holding his phone. Having Han Xu was already enough to annoy him, and now there was another little bastard. If he had known earlier, he should have secretly taken Lin Dan in. While she was thinking, Lin Dan had come out of the physical examination room, and the doctor followed her with an ultrasound picture.

Han Xu and Zeng Zhenyuan reached out their hands to support her at the same time, then reached out their hands to take the ultrasound picture at the same time, and then stared at each other with dark eyes.

Both gentlemen are tall, handsome in their own way, and have their own temperament. Even in the entertainment industry, they are considered top-notch looks, which is very rare. The doctor looked at Mr. Zeng, then at Mr. Han, and couldn't help but marvel in his heart. Beautiful people are just different. Even when she went for the prenatal checkup, two tall, rich and handsome men came to accompany her. They seemed to care about Miss Lin very much. Aren’t these two boats so stable?

The doctor stared at the two big hands holding the ultrasound image at the same time, and was at a loss for a moment.

Lin Dan took the ultrasound image and looked at it himself.

Zeng Zhenyuan and Han Xu let go at the same time and asked in unison: "Do you want to rent a wheelchair?"

Lin Dan was amused by the two and waved his hand, "I'm not disabled, why should I rent a wheelchair? Let's go back to the ward first."

Zeng Zhenyuan and Han Xu hurriedly followed, and as soon as they entered the door, they took out the daily necessities from their bags and rushed to put them in the cabinets and washbasin. Zeng Zhenyuan even held up a set of expensive skin care products and asked, "Lin Dan, are you used to this brand? Do you want to change to another one?"

The assistant who was helping him clean up couldn't help but look up at the boss. When BOSS and Ouyang Xue were together, he would give whatever he wanted as a gift and never asked Ouyang Xue's opinion. It's nothing like now, when he is so gentle and considerate. He had more control over Ouyang Xue, but was full of respect for Miss Lin.

Thinking of this, the assistant couldn't help but look at Lin Dan. He had to admit that there were still differences between people. Facing a strong man like BOSS, Ouyang Xue would be afraid, but Miss Lin would not feel uncomfortable at all. This is probably because of their matching auras, right?

Lin Dan took the skin care products, looked at them, and nodded with a smile: "I'll use this. Thank you."

"You're welcome." Han Xu and Zeng Zhenyuan looked at each other, both hoping that the other would disappear quickly.

…………

The sanatorium prohibited outsiders from staying overnight, so Wang Jun stayed with his parents for a few hours and then left. Without a home to return to, he could only stay in a nearby hotel, with Ouyang Xue following him closely.

Wang Jun threw himself onto the sofa, looking extremely tired. "What are you going to do?" he asked in a deep voice.

Ouyang Xue immediately asked back: "Ajun, don't you want me anymore?"

Wang Jun smiled bitterly: "I can't afford it! Why didn't you tell me that you were Zeng Zhenyuan's fiancée? If I had known this earlier, I would not have been with you. You know, I regretted it when I found out that Dandan was pregnant. Seeing her struggling to support the family, I was tormented every day and night."

It was not until the day he was caught in bed that he learned that Ouyang Xue was Zeng Zhenyuan's fiancée. Looking at her crying face, he was somehow bewitched and agreed to take her away. He thought he was a hero who saved a helpless girl, but it turned out that he was a disaster who pushed more people into the abyss. Thinking back on it now, he wished he could beat that horny self of his to death!

Ouyang Xue rushed over and lay on his legs, crying breathlessly: "Ajun, please don't leave me, Zeng Zhenyuan will kill me!"

Thinking of Zeng Zhenyuan's cruel methods, Wang Jun hesitated again. To be honest, his relationship with Ouyang Xue was not very deep. They had been dating for less than a month in total before they were on the run, their lives a mess, and there was no romance at all. What’s even more terrifying is that while hiding, he kept learning news about his family and witnessed Lin Dan’s strength and selflessness with his own eyes. Under such circumstances, how could he have no grudges against Ouyang Xue and fall deeply in love with her?

He went out to do odd jobs every day, but the money he earned was not enough for the two of them to have a full meal. Ouyang Xue could not help at all except crying. He himself could hardly hold on any longer, but he had to face Ouyang Xue's sad face all the time. There was simply no hope or warmth in his life.

No one knew how much he missed the meals that Lin Dan prepared for him every day when the night was quiet. He was afraid to come back and face her, but he dreamed of coming back.

Seeing Wang Jun was indifferent, Ouyang Xue cried even harder and begged, "Ah Jun, please let me stay. If I go out, Zeng Zhenyuan will take me away. He is a devil, he will never let me go."

Wang Jun held the phone tightly and remained silent for a long time. Just at this moment, a Weibo update appeared on the phone screen, causing his eyes to dim. He flipped open the page and read it carefully, then sighed, "Don't worry, Zeng Zhenyuan won't do anything to you. Look, he has cancelled his engagement with you."

Ouyang Xue looked at her phone in confusion, then showed an expression of disbelief. The official Weibo account of the Zeng family chaebol posted a notice, which was written by Zeng Zhenyuan himself. The wording was very decisive: [From now on, I, Zeng Zhenyuan, will cancel my engagement with Ouyang Xue. The Zeng family will no longer have any connection with Miss Ouyang. I hope everyone will be aware of this. 】

Ouyang Xue stared at the Weibo post and shook her head slowly, not knowing how to react. She had imagined the situation she would face after returning: perhaps Zeng Zhenyuan would arrest her and put her under house arrest, or perhaps he would immediately force her to get married, but she never thought that he would cancel the engagement without any hesitation.

The shackles that had bound her were removed, but she seemed to have lost her support and collapsed to the ground in an instant.
