Xie Zhi could only wipe the tears from her face and kissed her gently: "Jiaojiao, we are going to get married and be together for the rest of our lives. How can you just say no and then give up?"

Xu Jiaojiao smoothed her chest vigorously, feeling like she was going to be pissed off by this man: "When did I say I didn't want it anymore? Isn't it good to be in a relationship? Don't you men all like relationships where you don't have to take responsibility?"

Xie Zhi smiled bitterly when he heard this. Jiaojiao was right. Men all like this kind of relationship. "Jiaojiao, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll take you to dinner first."

Holding the girl's hand, they walked outside. Xu Jiaojiao and the others were in a hurry to leave, and they didn't have a letter of introduction or anything. They didn't know if they could get a room in the guesthouse. If they were found out, they would be charged with hooliganism or something.

The two walked out of the compound. The road was paved with asphalt, clean and tidy. Both sides of the road were planted with osmanthus trees, and it was basically shady all the way.

Xu Jiaojiao had no appetite anymore. Her mind was filled with the clothing factory that Boss Hu had introduced to her. She couldn't wait to go and take a look.

He found a bus stop nearby and successfully found the Qingcheng Garment Factory on the notice. His expression immediately changed from sad to happy.

Xie Zhi followed the girl. Although he didn't say anything, his mind was active uncontrollably, and he was thinking about Jiaojiao's words.

Jiaojiao was indeed right. He was useless. He had nothing but relying on his family. He could not do anything with his monthly salary. Even when Jiaojiao got off the car, Xie Zhi's mind was still racing, just like watching a movie.

Xu Jiaojiao got off the bus and saw a large factory building on the side of the street. A sign clearly read Qingcheng Garment Factory. Looking around, almost all of them were places selling clothes.

She walked into a clothing store at random, and found that the styles inside were much better than those in the small county town. At this time, a plump middle-aged woman was trying on clothes. Xu Jiaojiao watched the salesperson recommend to her with great interest.

It was a loose black skirt with pearls. The store was very large and the decoration was quite nice.

"Oh, comrade, this is really nice, it makes you look very noble."

The middle-aged woman took a close look at herself in the mirror and found that she looked quite good, but this also exposed her problem of being overweight.

Looking at the kitten-like girl behind him, he suddenly asked, "Does it look good, comrade?"

Xu Jiaojiao blinked her innocent eyes and pointed her finger at herself. Receiving an affirmative look, she then concentrated on looking at the middle-aged woman's clothes.

He stood up and looked around the shelf. This person was fat in the lower body and slender in the upper body, a typical pear-shaped figure. Fortunately, his chest was small, so it was easy for him to look classy when wearing clothes.

Xu Jiaojiao liked the man and was willing to help look. In the end, she picked out a sleeveless black long skirt with a waistline and a long hem, but the waist was not good-looking. Finally, she found a decorative belt.

“Try this.”

Xie Zhi took the cakes he bought from the store next door. They were fresh out of the oven, still steaming hot and smelling delicious: "Jiaojiao, eat some. It's easy to get a stomachache if you're hungry."

Xu Jiaojiao looked at Xie Zhi's ingratiating smile and felt a lump in her throat. She took the pastry and the two of them sat near the outside and ate it slowly. They could only be thankful that it was a pastry and would not affect others.

When the middle-aged woman came out wearing a skirt, the salesperson's eyes immediately lit up. She seemed to be a different person from the bloated one just now. The silver belt around her waist was really the finishing touch.

The woman admired herself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction after a long while: "You are quite good at dressing. You are quite suitable for making clothes."

"Aunt, are you okay?" Yuan Ling, who came from the men's clothing area, was obviously a little impatient when he saw the woman's outfit.

He said, "Aunt, you have a good eye. It's much better than before."

"It was this young comrade who helped me pick it out. Not only is she good-looking, she's also pretty."

Yuan Ling followed his aunt's line of sight and what caught his eye was the little cake he had been thinking about day and night. His playful expression collided with Xu Jiaojiao's surprise.

"Hi, Little Cake, long time no see."

Xu Jiaojiao felt a chill in her feet. When she saw this person, she remembered what happened that day. Her heart instantly tightened and she could hardly stand up. The moment she saw Yuan Ling coming over, she suddenly fell into Xie Zhi's arms.

Xie Zhi picked her up and said, "What's wrong, Jiaojiao?"

"Xiao Ling, you know a lesbian."

The moment Xie Zhi saw the man, his sharp black eyes swept over him, and the girl in his arms was gasping for breath.

Yuan Ling sighed: "It's you again."

Xu Jiaojiao forced herself to stand up, grabbed Xie Zhi's hand and hurried out. She really didn't want to see this madman again.

The middle-aged woman was stunned: "You know each other."

Yuan Ling swallowed the candy in his mouth. The taste of the candy was very similar to the smell of the girl. His tone was determined to win: "Aunt, I like her. She is very sweet, like a small cake."

"Don't you see that his partner is around?"

"So what? Since we've met, it means it's not the second time."

Xie Zhi tried his best to comfort the girl. He was so angry that he wanted to kill the man, but his remaining reason told him not to do so.

Because they had no letter of introduction, the two finally returned to Xie's house. Originally, Xu Jiaojiao had planned to take a good look at the garment factory, but when she saw that man, she lost all mood.

When the two came back, Wen Jing and her daughter were talking intimately with Ming Zhen on the sofa.

“Aunt Mingzhen, you are so beautiful, you must use this skin care product. My uncle brought it from abroad, and I thought of you first.”

Mingzhen's eyes widened: "Xiaojing, thank you, it's just that our Xie Zhi is unlucky."

The door was pushed open heavily, and Xie Zhi took the girl upstairs without even glancing at these people. Mingzhen's cheeks flushed with guilt, and she hurriedly followed.

"Jiaojiao, Auntie didn't mean that. Don't be angry, Jiaojiao."

Xu Jiaojiao smiled politely: "Auntie, it doesn't matter if you mean this. After all, Xie Zhi is so outstanding, I understand."

"Really? Jiaojiao, can you really understand?" Mingzhen looked at the girl in surprise.

It was not until she saw Xu Jiaojiao slumped on the sofa as soon as she entered the room, and Xie Zhi quietly put away his things and put them in the box, that she realized something was wrong.

The hand with the green jade pendant stopped Xie Zhi from continuing to move: "Xiao Zhi, do you want to leave?"

Xie Zhi coldly waved his mother's hand away and looked at her stunned expression: "Mom, I see that you and Wen Jing are getting along quite well, so I won't bother you anymore."

"You haven't even eaten at home, how can you leave, Xiaozhi, mom won't let you go."

Seeing that the man was still packing his luggage, Mingzhen could no longer hold back and stepped forward to stop Xie Zhi from packing, her pretty face full of tears.

"Xiaozhi, don't you want your mother anymore?"

Xie Zhi pushed his mother aside forcefully and said, "Mom, Jiaojiao is the wife I have chosen. I hope you can respect her. Anyway, we have already met. We will come back next time."

Mingzhen looked at Xu Jiaojiao with resentment. Seeing that she acted as if it had nothing to do with her, her anger deepened. A mother naturally has a possessive desire for her son.
