Chapter 466: Ex-girlfriend who despises the poor and loves the rich (13)
"Brother Zhongli! How can you talk to me like that? How am I not worthy of you?" Zhen Meizhu was ashamed and sad when she heard what Zhongli Ximo said, "How am I not as good as that woman Zuo Shichu? She has nothing but a nice face, but I am not bad looking either, not to mention I have a family background that can help you gain a foothold in the group..."
The more Zhongli Ximo listened, the uglier his expression became. He closed his eyes and said, "If I want to marry, I will only marry someone I like, not someone who is more suitable and can help me more! I, Zhongli Ximo, do not need the help of women to achieve my career. I will say it one last time. I have no other feelings for you. I hope you will not be sentimental, otherwise don't blame me for not cherishing our friendship!"
His words were very harsh. Zhen Meizhu looked at him in disbelief. She didn't expect him to be so heartless to her: "Brother Zhongli! Why have you become like this?" Her eyes were filled with tears. She looked pitiful and extremely moving. She was obviously a little beauty. Unfortunately, in Zhongli Ximo's eyes, she was not attractive at all.
"I can let it go since you came to Shichu this time, but there won't be a next time. Do you understand?" Zhongli Ximo warned her with a cold face, then ignored her and went upstairs with his long legs. He had to hurry and explain to Zuo Shichu, and he had no time to waste on someone he didn't want to do it with.
When Zhongli Ximo stood in front of Zuo Shichu's door, he lost his courage and became hesitant instead. He felt a little guilty because his identity had brought trouble to Zuo Shichu.
But he was not the kind of person who would avoid things, and after hesitating for a moment, he rang the doorbell.
Zuo Shichu opened the door with a cold face. Zhongli Ximo touched his nose, changed his shoes obediently, and followed her in.
"Go ahead." Zuo Shichu sat on the sofa, folded his arms, and looked at him very seriously. Zhongli Ximo suddenly felt like a prisoner being interrogated.
He sat opposite Zuo Shichu and said, "I'm sorry, the woman who just came to bother you is called Zhen Meizhu. She is my neighbor and I knew her when I was a child. But I went abroad to study after college and I haven't been in touch with her for a long time. I didn't expect that she would have such thoughts about me and would come to you on her own initiative."
Zuo Shichu looked up at him and said, "She was so confident to come to me and warn me not to be delusional and to let me leave you. Wasn't it because of you or your family that gave her the confidence?"
Zhongli Ximo quickly shook his head: "No, I don't! I really have no relationship with her, let alone any romantic relationship. The engagement and marriage are all her wishful thinking."
"But she said your mother is optimistic about her becoming her daughter-in-law." Zuo Shichu raised his eyelids and said, "If I knew you had a fiancée already reserved, I would not get together with you. This is my principle."
"No, she's not my intended fiancée..." Zhongli Ximo felt very tired, "I'm really single and I don't have any emotional debts."
"Okay, then I hope that no weird woman will come to me again in the future and let me leave you wisely." Zuo Shichu nodded. "If there is another one, I don't know if I can continue to endure it. My relationship with you will have to end regretfully."
"No, don't! I promise that no other woman will cause you trouble!" Zhongli Ximo quickly assured him that Zuo Shichu was very much to his liking and he didn't want to end his relationship with her.
"What if it was your biological mother who came to see me?" Zuo Shichu sneered, "If she came with a check and asked me to leave you, I would definitely accept it and then leave you naturally."
The corner of Zhongli Ximo's mouth twitched, thinking that if his mother found out that he was having an affair with Zuo Shichu, who was just an ordinary man, and rejected the marriage candidate she favored, it would be very likely that she would use a check to get rid of Zuo Shichu.
"You don't have to be so heartless, do you?" Zhongli Ximo said with a wry smile, and then joked, "I'll give you twice the amount, can you stay?"
Zuo Shichu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with a raised corner of his mouth: "Then I can consider it."
Zhongli Ximo couldn't help laughing when he saw her money-grubber look.
"Okay, now you should explain your identity to me." Seeing that he had relaxed, Zuo Shichu suddenly brought up a topic that caught Zhongli Ximo off guard.
Sure enough, when he heard Zuo Shichu's words, his face froze for a moment. After a while, he glanced at Zuo Shichu and said, "I am actually the president, not the president's assistant or secretary... Also, I am from the Zhongli family. You should have known this from Zhen Meizhu?"
Zuo Shichu glanced at him with a fake smile and said, "I never thought that the eldest young master of the Zhongli family would actually hide his identity and play emotional games with ordinary girls? Should I feel very honored?"
Zuo Shichu was a bit sarcastic, but in fact, to put it nicely, they were lovers, but to put it bluntly, they were just bedmates and fire buddies. They were only interested in the body and not the heart, and there was no emotion between them at all. Even if Zhongli Ximo concealed his identity, there was nothing wrong with that.
But Zhongli Ximo didn't realize that Zuo Shichu's questioning was a bit too much. Instead, he honestly admitted his mistakes and was willing to be ridiculed by her...
The two people involved in the situation will not be aware of the ambiguity for a while.
In short, Zhongli Ximo humbled himself, apologized humbly, and racked his brains to appease Zuo Shichu, which prevented Zuo Shichu from dumping him.
When he left Zuo Shichu's house, he just felt lucky that he had successfully coaxed people and did not get kicked out.
But when he got in his car and drove for a while, his mind calmed down and he realized that he had valued Zuo Shichu too much. He had clearly agreed with her that they were just bed partners, not lovers, so why did he spend so much effort to win her back? And when he knew Zhen Meizhu had found him, he hurried over to explain to her?
Is this the attitude towards a bed partner with whom you only have physical contact but no emotional connection? Zhongli Ximo felt that something was very wrong with him.
So he called his childhood friend Qin Shou, who was always a sea king and would never capsize, and said, "Beast, if your fiancée found one of your lovers, what would you do?"
"Fiancée? When did I have a fiancée? Don't scare me!" Qin Shou said hurriedly.
"If, I mean, if, you have a fiancée, but she finds out that you have a lover outside, and she goes to your lover and says harsh words to him, what would you do?" Zhongli Ximo said.
"Fiancée? That depends on whether I like her or not. If I like her, then of course I will get rid of my lover! No, if I like her, then I won't have a lover at all, Zhongli, your assumption is wrong!" Qin Shou said. Although he is a romantic, he still has some principles.
