He didn't speak, and Xu Zhan didn't explain any more, just stood by the bed and looked at him.

After a long time, Chao Ci slowly raised his head and looked at Xu Zhan with eyes filled with tears.

"How can it be the same?" he asked in a low voice, like a rhetorical question and an accusation.

Seeing that Xu Zhan didn't respond, he raised his voice a little more: "How can it be the same? From now on, she will be your wife, and I will be your mistress - maybe it is not my turn to be the mistress. There are so many people outside, who knows about me?

What kind of?!"

Xu Zhan was a little tired of him being such a hysterical and resentful woman. He didn't want to explain anything for a while, but just looked at him with a frown.

"What do you want?" he asked.

What do I want?

This question almost made Chao Ci feel confused.

He whispered the most extravagant dream in his heart, almost as if he was bewitched: "I think..."

"I want to marry you."

The man spoke the last word with an almost trembling tone. After he finished speaking, the room fell silent.

Chao Ci looked at Xu Zhan with hope and expectation.

But the man's eyes became colder and colder, and finally he even felt that they were approaching ridicule.

And Chao Ci's heart became colder and colder. He held Gu Yong like a solitary fire and said these words, but in the end he was blown out by the cold wind.

He slowly lowered his head.

Xu Zhan looked at him as if he had figured it out, then leaned over and tucked his broken hair behind his ears.

Xu Zhan didn't like Chao Ci to have short hair, so Chao Ci had been growing half-length hair in recent years. Chao Ci didn't know why at first, until he met Li Huaijing - he was the same way.

"Think less about these things, as overthinking will hurt your health." He said, holding Chao Ci's waist, "You have lost weight."

His tone was very light, as if he was stating a fact, and it was hard to hear the feeling of distress.

…………

After Xu Zhan came back that night, he stayed with Chao Ci for a day, and then flew back to country a overnight the next night.

Then there was no news for many days. When I waited for news again, another ten days had passed.

Foreign media reported that Belinda and Xu Zhan's engagement date seems to have been set.

Then various hot searches seemed to be taken over by Xu Zhan and Belinda. Various speculations were made about their engagement date and location. Even some vague remarks about Belinda’s friends were on the hot search.

A guess.

Although the actual engagement was kept secret, it seemed that they planned to give Belinda a surprise.

The engagement of the leader of a financial overlord and the only daughter of an oil tycoon is tantamount to the powerful combination of two business empires. Coupled with their handsome men and beautiful women, the focus of public opinion suddenly focused on them.

The day before three years passed, Xu Zhan told Chao Ci that Secretary Zhou would return to China to discuss contract renewal with him.

And that morning, Weibo exploded because that day was the engagement date of Xu Zhan and Belinda.

They seemed to have no intention of keeping a low profile, as many reporters came to the engagement site.

The public has been waiting for more than a month to finally see the engagement scene - it is indeed a grand event.

Xu Zhan directly bought a large manor in an excellent location. When the reporter walked through the door, he could not see the boundary. Later, when he inquired about it, he found out that the manor had more than 3,000 acres and was acquired by the Xu family from a wealthy man.

It is said that the purchase cost a total of US$890 million. This manor will be given to Belinda.

This manor is very new, and it can be seen that it has been renovated recently. But it has a very old history. Sculptures, antiques and murals can be seen everywhere. Even many paintings by famous Renaissance painters are placed directly in the hall. Anyone can

You can see the show off attitude of the original owner.

Some reporters who were videotaping the whole process were yelling and screaming, but the viewers who watched his live broadcast did not think he was noisy at all, because they, like him, felt like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden after watching this.

When Chao Ci read the news, he was standing at the door of the villa with his suitcase.

He left the key in a conspicuous place in the living room, and then he gently closed the door of the villa.

He had given the servants and chefs in the villa a holiday a few days ago. He only said that he was in a bad mood and wanted to be alone. They told Secretary Zhou about this, and Chao Ci also used the same excuse.

After he and Secretary Zhou asked Xu Zhan for instructions, they were given a holiday.

After living in this villa for more than two years, there is not much luggage that really needs to be taken away. Although he has lived in this place longer than Xu Zhan, and it is much more, Xu Zhan did not give him less.

When shopping, the clothes in the cloakroom are changed once a year, let alone luxury goods such as watches. There is also a Porsche in the garage that he bought for Chao Ci.

But I don't intend to take these speeches away with me.

Only a few things that originally belonged to him were left, which was enough to fill a suitcase.

Chao Ci didn't have any other ideas. He just felt that he had to leave. It would not be good to leave his old and cheap things at the sponsor's house. It would be awkward.

During the two months Xu Zhan was in country A, Chao Ci secretly bought both properties that Xu Zhan gave him. One was a high-end apartment with an average price of 150,110 square meters - not to mention the one Xu Zhan bought.

Among them, it is still the one with the most high-end configuration and the best location. One was a villa that cost 20 million when it was first bought. It has appreciated a lot in value now.

Because Chao Ci was eager to sell, the two properties did not sell so well, but they still sold for a total of 63 million.

After Chao Ci calculated it carefully, he was shocked. Will he become a billionaire?

After he walked out of the villa, he sent a message to Secretary Zhou, saying that he had something to do today and would discuss contract renewal tomorrow.

Then he bought several train tickets to fly to various places, including to foreign countries, but he arrived at the long-distance station, took the bus and left leisurely.

Of course, he also bought a lot of long-distance tickets.

His home is in a coastal town in province F, but he has no intention of going back.

Even though he felt that the benefactor would definitely not take a small person like him to heart, he could still see that Xu Zhan still cared a little about him - even for his favorite objects.

But he really has no interest in staying with the sponsor for another three years. He may not be that greedy for money. The most fundamental reason why he agreed to this so-called support three years ago was because Xu Zhan threatened him with his studies and his uncle's job.

The speech has to be like this.

Now Chao Ci has graduated a long time ago, and he still has a lot of money in his hand, so he is not worried about his future at all. In recent years, he has also sent three to four million to his uncle one after another, and his uncle bought everything in his hometown.

There are two houses and one apartment. Even if Xu Zhan does make his uncle lose his job later, Chao Ci doesn't have to worry about his uncle.

After all, my uncle's salary is just over 10,000 yuan a month. He will retire in ten years. Even if he keeps working for these ten years, it will only be over one million yuan.

Province F is more than half of China away from City A, so Xu Zhan wouldn't use any other underhanded tactics.

Chao Ci is going to City L of Yin Province.

He is lazy, and it doesn't make much difference to him whether he stays in a bustling place or a quiet town. And he has also thought about it. Xu Zhan may come to him during this time, and he can't stay in the same place.

If I stay here for a long time, I might as well take this opportunity to travel around.

And it was very suitable for the lazy-style travel that he longed for in the past. He could live in each place for a month or two, walk around when he was interested, and stay in bed when he was too lazy to walk.

The B&B in City J is also very good, and the B&B does not require an ID card, which is just right for him. Because now he dare not go to any place that requires an ID card. He doesn't know if Xu Zhan has such magical powers.

But he read that such bosses in novels were so powerful, so he had better be cautious. This was also the reason why he had just bought so many plane tickets and train tickets but didn't go to any of them.

It takes a full day and a half to take a bus from city a to city l in yn province.

Bored in the car, Chao Ci munched on snacks and took out his new mobile phone. He had thrown away his old mobile phone, including the card. The phone card he was using now was anonymous.

The money he paid to buy the house was put into another card that he did not bear in his name, and he also took out 500,000 in cash as a backup. The 60 million that Xu Zhan gave him was put into the card in his name, Chao Ci

I haven't spent much money in the past few years, that is, I transferred three to four million to my uncle. Now I still have more than fifty-five million left in the card.

Chao Ci didn't dare to use this card. He originally planned to use it in a few years when Xu Zhan had forgotten about him, but now he looked at the balance on the card and suddenly felt that it was meaningless.

He contacted many charitable foundations or various charitable organizations. He didn't read anything on the bus that day. He just read various information on the Internet to study which charities were reliable. Finally, he finalized six organizations and combined these five.

More than 15 million yuan was earned in batches.

After remitting the last amount of money, Chao Ci suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of relief and joy.

A good person like me deserves to be rich!

He laughed like a villain in his heart, but it was already late at night, and the bus was driving on the winding mountain road.

Suddenly, several huge rocks rolled down the mountain, hitting the bus and causing it to flip over the guardrail.

While the world was spinning, Chao Ci had only one thought:

I - grass - you - mother!!

Is this retribution for letting his financial backers dove in his favor?

…………

Chao Ci retracted his memories of the week.
Chapter completed!
