Chapter 523: Seeing Xiao Fang
After I finished speaking, Xiao Yue lowered her ashamed head.
Of course I wasn't trying to persuade and educate Xiao Yue,
In this era that laughs at poverty but not at prostitution, what right do we have to educate others?
Everyone has the right to pursue a better life.
It's just that the means used are different.
Why would I hit Xiao Yue? She's only someone Wen Han sent.
Her task is just to monitor me.
I want to conquer her psychologically, to make her feel fear from the heart.
Then I will appropriately use words to educate her a bit.
After Xiao Yue finished smoking, she didn't speak. She secretly looked at me with her eyes.
Actually, Xiao Yue should be about the same as the former Yang Tao,
But Xiao Yue appears more pure and innocent, this purity is also a facade, an effect produced through training.
Back then with Yang Tao, I had been fooled once.
I treated her as a college student, genuinely wanting to save her from suffering, but the result was that Yang Tao took me for an idiot.
Sigh, if it weren't for Yang Tao, I wouldn't have become enemies with Bai Lang.
Now, if Xiao Yue plays the sympathy card again, it will have no effect whatsoever.
In my experience, I am no longer that youth who was moved by love.
I ignored Xiao Yue and began washing up.
Xiao Yue looked at me and said, "Mr. Zhao, you misunderstood my meaning. I sincerely like you. You have the aura of a mature man."
"That aura is exactly the type I like."
Hearing Xiao Yue say that,
"Xiao Yue, liking is fine. I cannot stop you from liking me.
But there is a red line between us that must not be crossed.
I don't like that kind of impulse."
Xiao Yue then said, "I understand, Mr. Zhao. We can have a romance between us.
By then, I believe you will also like me."
"Xiao Yue, truly liking someone is a matter of falling in love from the heart, a lifelong thing; if I say more it becomes cliché.
My heart's deepest love is my own wife; I will not fall for anyone else." I said coldly.
"I just need you to make room in your heart; I only need time." Xiao Yue said innocently, smiling.
I said nothing more, finished washing up, and then went to bed to sleep.
Xiao Yue saw that I was already asleep, and she also didn't speak further,
she washed up herself and also went to bed to sleep.
After that slap, Xiao Yue didn't dare to act out at night.
Everyone slept properly in their own beds.
I felt very annoyed, not because of Xiao Yue, but because of Wen Han.
Damn, this old brat, still doesn't trust me,
and still sends Xiao Yue to monitor me, to see whether I have actually abandoned the Da Heng Group.
He always feels that I won't let go easily.
When someone has guilt in their heart, it becomes troublesome.
Then let Xiao Yue follow me to see whether I have abandoned the Da Heng Group; that way Wen Han will believe it.
The next morning, I got up and went out for a walk.
Returning to the hotel, I ate a buffet.
Just then Xiao Fang arrived.
Xiao Fang had changed a lot by then; she had grown her hair long and permed it into the most fashionable pear blossom curls.
Xiao Fang's clothing was also different from before.
Looking at Xiao Fang, I said, "Xiao Fang, it's only been a few days and you've changed so much."
Xiao Fang laughed embarrassedly,
"Brother Jianqiang, you're teasing me again."
I laughed and said, "I really wasn't teasing you. Are you still used to living in Sijiucheng?"
"It's fine, did Mr. Wen tell you? I'm planning to go abroad." Xiao Fang said.
"He did, why do you want to study abroad?" I asked.
"It's not just to get into a TV station; now, studying abroad and obtaining a degree lets you enter a TV station directly; otherwise, you can only be a contract worker at a TV station.
Coincidentally, there are schools in the United States recruiting for the hosting major.
"I just need to pass the TOEFL." Xiao Fang said.
I also didn't understand what Xiao Fang said.
In short, Xiao Fang is going to study abroad. It seems that after Wen Han, this path is getting wider and wider.
I then said, "Let's not chat in the lobby; come, let's go back to my room. If you go out, we won't know when we'll see each other again."
"It's just a year of study; as long as you get the diploma, that's enough." Xiao Fang said smiling.
Xiao Fang and I quickly returned to the room,
I opened the door of the room,
Xiao Yue had just gotten up when she saw me and Xiao Fang come in.
Xiao Yue hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhao, Sister Xiao Fang, hello."
"Xiao Yue, how are you here?" Xiao Fang asked in a surprised tone.
"I, ……." Xiao Yue was at a loss for words, not knowing how to explain to Xiao Fang.
I directly said, "Xiao Yue was arranged by Mr. Wen to accompany me. Xiao Fang, you know Xiao Yue."
"We met before at the Boss Tea House." Xiao Fang said.
I commanded Xiao Yue, "Xiao Yue, first go out to the buffet to eat breakfast. I and Xiao Fang will discuss some matters. I will notify you to come back later."
Xiao Yue nodded,
"Okay, Mr. Zhao, you chat. Goodbye, Sister Xiao Fang."
After saying that, Xiao Yue left the room. Only I and Xiao Fang remained inside.
Xiao Fang looked at the messy state of the room, her face slightly flushed.
I also don't need to explain these to Xiao Fang.
Some things don't need explanation.
I pulled over a chair,
poured Xiao Fang a cup of water,
"Xiao Fang, how is the expense for studying abroad settled?"
"It was Wen Han who paid the money. Brother Jianqiang, I don't want to hide anything from you." Xiao Fang took a sip of water, then said.
I nodded,
"Xiao Fang, I called you here urgently because I have important matters to discuss with you."
"There are important matters to discuss with me. Brother Jianqiang, I'll ask you first: are you and Xiao Yue living together?" Xiao Fang directly asked.
"No." I directly replied.
"You two don't." Xiao Fang somewhat disbelieved.
"I'm telling the truth, Xiao Fang. You also know that this Xiao Yue was arranged by Wen Han for me; Wen Han doesn't really trust me, wondering whether I truly gave up Da Heng Group."
He had Xiao Yue come to feel things out.
Sigh, I cannot refuse.
If I refused, Wen Han would trust me even less.
So I could only bring Xiao Yue out.
But between us, nothing happened.
In my heart, only your sister-in-law.
"I am a man faithful to marriage; I will not betray your sister-in-law or my own marriage." I said, looking at Xiao Fang.
Xiao Fang at this moment smoothed her hair,
"Brother Jianqiang, I believe what you said. I believe you are one of the few good men in the world."
Shen Honghong, in front of you, has praised you more than once,
saying you can withstand temptation.
Many men simply cannot withstand temptation.
They have no resistance to women.
But you are an exception.
Brother Jianqiang, I understand your current situation.
Wen Han, he also said in front of me,
"You will not easily give up Da Heng Group."
You should know, that Da Heng Group was founded by you single-handedly,
really just giving it up all at once—no one would believe it.
I smiled,
"Xiao Fang, I truly have given it up; I've figured it out—these years of struggle have meant nothing.
I am also exhausted; look what I have now.
Da Heng Group is gone, my wife is a vegetative state.
It's meaningless, truly meaningless.
I have already made plans,
I am building a house at Niushiling; when it's done, I will return to Niushiling to spend my old age.
"Bring your sister-in-law to my side, see if we can cure her illness, then I will have no further wishes." I said, then took out a cigarette.
At this moment, Xiao Fang reached out and snatched my cigarette away,
"Brother Jianqiang, smoking too much is bad for your health. Tell me, what is this important matter?"
