Zhu Ruiyan didn't want to pick up the phone, but she noticed that Qin Yizhao, who was driving, seemed to be unhappy from the corner of her eyes, because she could still remember what happened last time so she could only pick up the phone helplessly.
"Yanyan, where are you?" On the other side of the phone, Zhang Shuai's voice sounded anxious and fearful.
"I'm not at home. We'll talk about it later." Zhu Ruiyan could not hang up the phone in front of Qin Yizhao, she could only avoid the topic.
"Yanyan, what happened previously was my fault, but I really have no other choice now. I'll probably go to jail. I want to talk to you. "
Zhu Ruiyan's eyes were clearly filled with surprise, but she tried her best to remain calm and collected as she said, "I got it, let's talk about it when we get back." Zhu Ruiyan immediately hung up, and took the opportunity to shut off her phone.
Qin Yizhao faintly heard a man's voice from the other side of the phone, but he didn't know what he was talking about. But Zhu Ruiyan's clumsy cover was very obvious, it was obvious that he did not want him to hear the contents of the phone call, causing Qin Yizhao to look somewhat unhappy.
"Where do you live?" Qin Yizhao said lightly.
"Oh, in the third building of the hydraulic factory." The place Zhu Ruiyan lived in was an old residential area that had a few years of history, but she was very satisfied now, because she had a place to settle down. Although it was a little simple, it was good enough.
Under Zhu Ruiyan's guidance, the carriage quickly arrived at her house. Zhu Ruiyan got off the carriage in a sorry state with the umbrella. She stood at the corridor and helped Qin Yizhao turn the car around before going upstairs. However, she did not notice that Qin Yizhao had only truly left after seeing her living room lights turn on.
When Zhu Ruiyan returned home, she took a hot bath first. Standing in the bathroom, she kept thinking about the phone call Zhang Shuai had made. Although Zhang Shuai was a civil servant, his rank was not high. If he needed to go to jail, it would be something like taking bribes or something like that, but other people didn't need to break his joints.
As long as she thought of the schemes that Zhang Shuai had done to her back then, she would feel a chill in her heart. Until now, Zhu Ruiyan still could not understand how that warm and sunny man from before could become like this in an instant. However, since Zhang Shuai had come to find her, even if he was extremely unwilling, he would still want to make it clear.
Zhu Ruiyan came out of the bathroom to change into her pajamas and dialed Zhang Shuai's number: "Zhang Shuai, arrange for a time for tomorrow."
The two of them agreed to meet at a tea shop. On the second day, Zhu Ruiyan arrived at the tea house at the agreed time, and Zhang Shuai was already waiting for her in the private room.
She knew that he had been tossing and turning for a long time over what he had wanted to tell her yesterday. However, seeing Zhang Shuai again, Ruyan still felt her heart aching a little.
Fortunately, the heavens opened their eyes, and at the last moment, they stopped her from jumping into the fire pit without hesitation. Zhu Ruiyan still remembered what her mother had said before: "The man who truly loves you won't care only about your body, so he will definitely respect you and keep you two alive until the wedding night."
Zhu Ruiyan and Zhang Shuai both did not speak, and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a while. Zhu Ruiyan said somewhat angrily: "Zhang Shuai, honestly speaking, what do you think I am in your heart?
"Yanyan, I really have my own difficulties." Zhang Shuai had a helpless look on his face.
"Difficult? "It's really funny." Zhu Ruiyan said with disdain, "I am your fiancee. Even if you have any difficulties, you can't sell out your fiancee. Other people are afraid of women wearing green hats for themselves, but you are trying to put green hats on your head. Are you sick? "
"Yanyan, even if I bring back the green hat, I will still love you dearly. And I'll thank you. You can only save me if you do that. "
Zhu Ruiyan never thought that Zhang Shuai could be so shameless to this extent. She felt that she already had nothing to talk about with this man.
"Yanyan, I'll be honest with you. I had taken someone else's kickbacks to purchase a set of equipment for the bureau, but now there was something wrong with the equipment, and there was no small problem. The bureau was already investigating it. I was also worried that something might happen, so I could only ask for your help to please Qin Yizhao. His words have a lot of weight, if he was willing to help me, then I … "
"Zhang Shuai, you're done!" Unable to suppress the anger in her heart any longer, disdain filled her eyes, "You did all these wrong things by yourself and you want to use your fiancée to clean up the mess. Don't you feel ashamed by climbing up with a woman's body? It was a waste of my love for you, but before we got married I knew who you really were, and that's what God didn't like about you. "
"Yanyan, I have always respected you, right? If you don't want me to force you again, then I won't force you. We've been together for so long, yet I couldn't bear not to touch you.
"Yeah, you didn't touch me, but you brought other women to your bed, didn't you?" Zhu Ruiyan felt that Zhang Shuai was shameless to the extreme, to the point that he could even completely reverse the black and white, and not blame himself in the slightest.
"We're just friends."
"Friend? Heh heh, Zhang Shuai, do you think I'm stupid or not. Would a friend just go to bed? In the years that we've been in love, this sort of method should be quite common, right? "
Zhang Shuai did not speak. Zhu Ruiyan knew that he had tacitly agreed. When he was in university, he was already reminded that such a conservative boyfriend would be taken away by other people. At that time, Zhu Ruiyan proudly said that Zhang Shuai was not such a shallow person.
But now that she thought about it, her roommate's expression when looking at her was often a little strange. Maybe everyone in the world knew about Zhang Shuai's shameless actions, but only she herself foolishly thought that she had picked up a treasure.
At this moment, Zhu Ruiyan felt that she was really stupid in the beginning, and when all the lies were exposed at this moment, the pain was truly unforgettable. She even started to suspect if there was anything in this world that was worth believing.
But all of these were not important, looking at the man in front of him, Zhu Ruiyan no longer had the strength to hate him. Because in her heart, she felt that even if she hated him, she would still have to waste her time and energy;
Zhu Ruiyan said coldly: "Zhang Shuai, it has already ended between us, and as for you accepting the kickbacks, I am powerless to help. I do not think that I owe you anything, and you do not owe me either.
"Yanyan, you better not leave me alone." Zhang Shuai was getting a little anxious and he quickly pulled Zhu Ruiyan's hand, "As long as you can ask Director Qin to help me speak up in front of our Bureau Chief, I will definitely be fine. What happened between you and Chairman Qin that night? "
"Why are you asking me this? Shouldn't you be clear about it?"
Zhang Shuai lowered his head apologetically: "The pinhole camera that I prepared earlier was taken by him."
Zhu Ruiyan's entire body trembled, he never thought that Zhang Shuai would actually prepare a pinhole camera, he was actually so abnormal that he wanted to record the scene of his fiancée and the other men going overboard as evidence. Zhu Ruiyan's face suddenly became a little pale, and he tightly bit his lips.
Zhang Shuai saw Zhu Ruiyan's fury and quickly explained, "Yanyan, I know I'm in the wrong, but I really was forced into a corner at that time."
Zhu Ruiyan pushed Zhang Shuai away from her hands. She felt that he could no longer face this man for more than a second, and the person in front of his caused his to feel extremely disgusted.
Zhu Ruiyan didn't have the strength to be angry anymore. She lightly said, "Zhang Shuai, you are even more shameless than I imagined. But that's not important, and for the sake of a few years, let me remind you one last time. Chairman Qin said that he would definitely find out who the mastermind behind sending that woman to him was. I believe that he would definitely be able to find out. "Even though you don't have any feelings for me, I didn't betray you. This is my last feelings for you."
Zhang Shuai's expression became a little unsightly. What he cared about was not the end of this relationship, but rather the fact that Qin Yizhao had mentioned to check on him. He felt an inexplicable fear. Zhu Ruiyan stood up and walked out of the teahouse. She hurriedly paid the bill and called out to Zhu Ruiyan, "Yanyan, can you really bear to bear with the feelings we have for each other for so many years? Wait for me, let's talk. "
Zhang Shuai quickly chased after him, but he once again pulled on Zhu Ruiyan's wrist. "Yanyan, you can't treat me like this. I still love you, so why don't you give me another chance? "
Zhu Ruiyan didn't say anything as she struggled to shake him off. Zhang Shuai continued to speak, "Even if Yanyan is now in prison, I hope that you can wait for me there. When I come out, I will definitely marry you.
Zhu Ruiyan felt that Zhang Shuai was funny, he actually dared to say such a thing to him. He quickly ran to the other side of the road as he was waiting for Zhang Shuai at the Medical Insurance Bureau. When he reached the other side of the road, Zhang Shuai would not dare to disturb her anymore.
A tall figure across the street noticed what was happening. His gaze was somewhat disdainful. Why was it that every time she saw this woman, she would always be tangled up with a man?
Zhu Ruiyan did not want to hear anything, she just kept running forward with her head low. When she was crossing the road, she did not see a car driving towards him. Zhang Shuai screamed in fear, "Yanyan!"
After that, there was an exceptionally ear-piercing sound of brakes, and upon seeing the car that was less than a centimeter away from him, Zhu Ruiyan realised how dangerous it was previously, causing her legs to tremble slightly from her nervousness.
Qin Yizhao was also shocked, he did not know how this woman could be so stupid to cross the road, and almost got hit by a car. Just as Qin Yizhao was about to go and take a look at the situation, someone standing beside him called out, "Chairman Qin, the meeting is about to begin."
Zhang Shuai quickly ran over to Zhu Ruiyan's side to check if she was injured. The driver saw that Zhu Ruiyan was fine, so he started to scold: "Do you have brains when you're out of the house? "If you want to die and go somewhere else, don't implicate this daddy. This is so damn unlucky."
The frightened Zhu Ruiyan said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose."
