At eight o'clock in the evening, when Zhou Beishen came back from the company, he immediately saw Zhao Yuanyuan standing outside the mansion.
"What are you doing here?" The man got out of the car and walked over with a complicated expression.
In fact, he could guess some of it. The current situation of the Zhao family is well known in Jincheng. There is probably only one reason why Zhao Yuanyuan came to him now.
At this moment, Zhao Yuanyuan looked a little embarrassed, and looked at the man in front of her with red eyes: "Beishen, can you help the Zhao family once?"
"Let's go in and talk about it." Zhou Beishen didn't agree, nor did he refuse.
Zhao Yuanyuan didn't move, she still stood where she was: "I won't go in, I came today just to ask about the result."
Hearing this, Zhou Beishen didn't force it. He looked at her for a long time before saying, "I'm sorry, A Yuan, I can't help you."
"Bei Shen, if you don't help the Zhao family this time, my dad will marry me to the Li family and exchange my lifelong happiness for the cooperation of the Zhao and Li families. Even so, can't you help me once? "
She looked at him beggingly, wishing that Zhou Ben could help her once, even if it was only once.
Zhou Bei frowned deeply, and said seriously, "Don't worry, I won't let your father marry you to the Li family."
He can't help the Zhao family, but he can help Zhao Yuanyuan avoid marrying into the Li family. He still has the ability.
However, this is not what Zhao Yuanyuan wants.
"Is that really the only way to go?" Looking at Zhou Beishen in front of her, she felt that he was extremely strange.
Perhaps it wasn't that he was unfamiliar, but that he had never really understood him.
"Ayuan, even though the police didn't find you, you and I both know why Zhao Yuanfang died. I did my best not to do anything to you." On one side was his favorite Jiang Wan, and on the other side was his childhood friend. , he was also very embarrassed.
He was already very sorry for not helping Jiang Wan, but if he helped the Zhao family now, he would push Jiang Wan away with his own hands.
Zhao Yuanyuan didn't defend herself. She knew that Zhou Beishen couldn't hide this from Zhou Beishen, and she was sure that he wouldn't do anything to her. That's why she dared to frame Jiang Wan so boldly.
She lowered her head and wept softly.
Zhou Bei listened deeply, indifferent.
I don't know how long it has passed before Zhao Yuanyuan raised her head and asked him: "Beishen, in fact, I've been wanting to ask you for so many years, have you ever liked me?"
This question came so suddenly that Zhou Beishen didn't know how to answer it for a while.
"Before Jiang Wan appeared, everyone said that we were the most suitable partners. At that time, you didn't refute it. I thought you liked me too."
"But then you got married like that, with almost no resistance. At that time, I was asking myself, did you really like me?"
"I went abroad in a fit of anger, waiting for you to chase after me, but you didn't." As she spoke, she laughed.
"I heard that you and Jiang Wan had a bad relationship after getting married abroad. You didn't even meet her. I think you like me in your heart."
"It was like this back and forth doubting and confirming. It was not until I returned to China this time that I was sure that you never liked me at all. In your heart, I have always been just a friend. Is it a good marriage partner?"
Zhou Bei listened to her saying so much in one breath, and his face was extremely heavy, "Maybe, in fact, before Jiang Wan appeared, I couldn't even tell what I liked."
Zhao Yuanyuan took a deep breath to keep her tears from falling, "Okay, anyway, I just came here today to get a result, otherwise I will always feel unwilling."
"If you don't want to help the Zhao family, I won't say anything, but for the sake of our friends, why not have a drink with me? It's just a respect for the happiness of my life that is about to pass away," she said.
"The Li family, I can..."
"No, if I can't marry you, it doesn't matter if I marry anyone. Anyway, the Li family can help my dad keep the Zhao family, which is actually pretty good." She smiled, as if she had figured it out.
Zhou Beishen had no choice but to nod his head: "Think it over yourself."
"You just say whether to accompany you or not? After so many years of friends, it's not enough to drink two glasses of wine, right?" she asked.
