"I hope they're divorced or widowed. They have to have kids, so it'll save them a lot of trouble."
"Zhan Yan, don't say such words, I don't like to hear them. There are so many families in Dink now, and so many couples have no children. I thought they would stay together until they were old, but why can't it be you and Ji Weiyang instead? " Du Xiaomo's anger rose in an instant.
Zhan Yan no longer had the strength to explain. She only said one sentence, "Xiaomo, we have known each other for so many years, I have never asked you for anything. I just want to ask of you one thing, the sooner the better."
After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone, leaving Du Xiaomo with a busy call. Du Xiaomo was angry and angry at the same time, she kept shouting into the phone: Wei Zhanyan, you idiot!
"What are you shouting about in the middle of the night for? Be so cautious." A deep male voice came from behind, accompanied by a faint fragrance of tobacco.
Du Xiaomo turned her head around, only to see Ji Weixin leaning against the fence, with a cigarette between his two fingers. In the future, don't get involved in things between Weiyang and Wei Zhanyan. Others can do it, but it's impossible for families like ours. "
Du Xiaomo had just suppressed her anger at Zhan Yan's words, and upon hearing them, she immediately became angry: "Ji Weixin, do you think that just because you guys have a few people capable of gathering money, you are already a level above me? It is all because of your Ji Family that Zhan Yan acted like this today. She can't bear to bear children now, so you should just dislike her.
Ji Weixin threw the burnt cigarette butt onto the ground, as his face darkened, "Xiaomo, you don't have to make your words sound so unpleasant every single time. I was only speaking the truth. Don't look at how Wei Yang was tormenting himself all day. It was all just a waste, for example, for the old man, Zhan Yan definitely wouldn't be able to pass. "
"It seems like the reason why you Ji Family men marry wives is for the succession of generations." Du Xiaomo sneered, took a cigarette from his hand, took two puffs, and coughed non-stop. Oh, does Young Master Ji mean that as long as I give you a son, you'll be able to get the position of a mother with such a high rank? "
Ji Weixin's gaze slightly sunk, as he spoke in an extremely serious manner. Actually, Du Xiaomo's unintentional words were actually words that Ji Weixin had been pondering about for a long time. Xiaomo, do you want to bet once? "
Du Xiaomo sneered, and turned towards her bedroom. If she really wanted to use her child to threaten something, she wouldn't have secretly removed the fetus from her womb the last time.
Even though Du Xiaomo was unwilling, but she still searched everywhere for people to rely on to find a suitable matchmaker for Zhan Yan. She had always been very efficient in doing things, and very quickly found a reliable source for Zhan Yan.
The date was at a coffee shop, so on the way there, Du Xiaomo explained the situation to the other party while driving, "Haigui, I just got back from abroad not long ago. At the beginning, I was an American with a mixed blood daughter. It can't be called rich or anything, so I won't let you down. "
"Yes." Zhan Yan nodded indifferently, as if she didn't care about it. She then asked, "Why did he leave?"
His father passed away young, but he was still talented. After graduating from university, he was sent abroad, and only for the sake of the American Green-Card did he marry a woman from the United States. Before he returned to his country, he married her.
"Yes." Zhan Yan sullenly agreed again, but still did not have much of a reaction, as she silently charted the target of her meeting.
She was born poor, but she was very ambitious, and she could even treat marriage as a deal if she was too careless with her feelings. This kind of person was a little sentimental, but it was even better that she needed someone who could give her a stable life, not someone who could have a relationship with her.
All of her feelings had already been used up on Ji Weiyang. She didn't have the strength to love her, and she didn't need anyone to love her either.
Du Xiaomo led her into the coffee shop. The man arrived before her and had already chosen her seat. The French windows were extremely elegant and there was a small stage not far away from them.
The man looked to be in his mid-thirties. He wasn't that handsome, but he was very energetic and polite to a gentleman.
"Miss Wei, it's a pleasure to meet you." The man stood up and casually adjusted his suit before stretching his arm.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang." Zhan Yan politely shook hands with the other side, and then sat down. She ordered a glass of Willow Juice and casually held it with her white, leaden fingertip. After that, there was silence.
The other party, on the other hand, had been sizing her up the entire time. It seemed as if he was extremely satisfied with her, and even the man's eyes were shining.
"You two go ahead and chat, I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first." Du Xiaomo casually made up a reason, and then left. Before leaving, she lightly patted Zhan Yan's shoulders, letting her make sense of the situation.
Zhan Yan rarely spoke, it was usually a question for the other party, so she only answered it once.
"I didn't expect that Miss Wei would be so young and beautiful. It's actually quite a pleasant surprise." The other party's slightly humorous tone broke the awkward atmosphere.
Zhan Yan smiled faintly, treating it as an answer.
"I heard that Miss Wei was once a doctor. It must have been hard for her to learn to be a doctor."
"Fortunately, it's not as difficult as fighting alone in a foreign land."
"Has Miss Wei ever been to the United States?"
"I've only been to Los Angeles. I'm not used to living outside." Zhan Yan said warmly.
The other party was very cooperative, "That's right. After staying abroad for so many years, I still feel that our country is the best. Everyone has to return to their roots. If I don't come back, my daughter will only speak English, not even Mandarin. "
Zhan Yan smiled warmly, she took a sip of the willow juice, and heard the other party ask again, "Does Miss Wei like children?"
"Yes." Zhan Yan nodded.
"My daughter is quite mischievous, but she is still very sensible. I believe that you will definitely like her." Mentioning his daughter, Mr. Jiang's face turned warm.
Zhan Yan's clear eyes also softened as she said, "If there's a chance next time, I hope to be able to meet her. She must definitely be a cute little angel."
Since Zhan Yan said this, it means that she has the intention to continue dating. She doesn't talk about relationships, so, as long as the other party's conditions are met, and looks pleasing to the eye, they can continue dating. When the time is ripe, they can get married. Only if she marries, would Ji Weiyang truly give up hope.
The other party was obviously very satisfied with Zhan Yan. Although Du Xiaomo did not say much about Zhan Yan's past marriage history and family, she did give some general details about her divorce, how she was a senior child, and her father was a retired national official, her family was well-off. Seeing her today, and seeing how pretty she was, there was nothing to criticize about her.
"Of course. Does Miss Wei like watching movies? "Why don't I invite you to a movie next time?"
"Sure." Zhan Yan responded indifferently. It was not warm, but it was not ice-cold either. Warming Tuntun, but more lovable.
Mr. Jiang was stunned for a moment. He stammered a little as he said, "Miss Wei, do you like dessert? The Tiramisu here is not bad. "
Zhan Yan inexplicably thought of that night when she personally made the Tiramisu for Ji Weiyang. Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared on her face as she shook her head and said, "No, I don't really like Tiramisu."
"Then what do you want to eat? It's already noon. I don't know if I have the honor of having lunch with Miss Wei? " Mr. Jiang's tone carried a hint of humor. He ordered the waiter to bring the menu.
Zhan Yan lowered her head to look at the menu, and at this time, the sound of steady footsteps came closer. The person who came was dressed in a milky-white resting suit, her black eyes slightly narrowed as she swept her indifferent gaze across the dining hall, and finally landed on that delicate voice from behind.
As she had her back facing them, Zhan Yan did not know that there were people approaching him, but Mr. Jiang could see him instantly. Of course, it was very difficult for him to ignore him, because men were simply too dazzling, and the aura around them could almost overwhelm everything.
The person stopped in front of the table. There was a lazy and devilish look in his eyes, but Mr. Jiang, who was sitting in his seat, stood up seriously and said, "Director Ji."
"Department Head Jiang, what a coincidence." Ji Weiyang laughed along with him, and the corner of his eyes seemed to inadvertently sweep across Zhan Yan's body.
Mr. Jiang did not dare to be negligent as he nodded and replied, "I didn't expect Director Ji to also be here for afternoon tea."
"A few times, the environment is not bad." Ji Weiyang said as he pulled open the bench and sat down, "Do you mind if we go together?"
Since he had already sat down, Mr. Jiang would naturally not say no. Furthermore, Ji Weiyang could be said to be his parents, he was naturally respectful to him.
On the other hand, Zhan Yan's expression did not look too good, she had never dreamt that Ji Weiyang would actually catch up to her here. She rolled her eyes at him in displeasure, knowing that today's blind date would be ruined.
The waiter helped Ji Weiyang buy a set of tableware, while he directly grabbed the menu and ordered. Everything that was ordered was what Zhan Yan liked to eat. As for Mr. Jiang who was talking leisurely just now, she could not interrupt at all. It was basically Ji Weiyang's orders, he nodded and agreed to it.
He ordered two people to eat it, of course it belonged to him and Zhan Yan. He also told the waiter to fry the steak until it was seventy percent done, because Zhan Yan ate it until it was cooked.
"What does Department Head Jiang want to eat?" Ji Weiyang casually asked, and directly threw the menu over to him.
Mr. Jiang ordered the same steak as Ji Weiyang, and just as he returned the menu back to the waiter, Ji Weiyang asked again, "Department Head Jiang, you have just arrived at Ji's, has the job been successful?"
"Thank you for your concern, Director Ji. My work is basically on the right track, Ji's is the backbone of S City, it is my great honor to work under you." Mr. Jiang poured himself a cup of wine and toasted Ji Weiyang.
This time, Zhan Yan finally understood. It was really a coincidence, the person Du Xiaomo introduced was one of Ji Weiyang's employees. Presumably, this Mr. Jiang had only just returned to her hometown and had not worked at the Ji's for long. Regarding this, Du Xiaomo probably did not know about it.
The two men spoke nonchalantly as Zhan Yan was completely treated as a transparent person. In her heart, Ji Weiyang had done it on purpose.
Mr. Jiang was busy dealing with the boss, and only after a long while did he remember Zhan Yan's existence, and hurriedly introduced him, "I forgot to introduce, this is …"
Just as he spoke up, he was interrupted by Ji Weiyang. He smiled as his arm naturally wrapped around Zhan Yan's waist, making him look extremely dubious, "I'm also curious, how does Department Head Jiang know my wife?"
As he finished speaking, he naturally picked up the cup in front of Zhan Yan that she had just used and took a sip of the drink in her cup.
"Your wife?" Mr. Jiang's face was filled with shock as he looked straight at Zhan Yan, as if questioning him.
Zhan Yan lowered her head and struggled to leave his embrace, but the arm around her waist became even tighter. Zhan Yan was slightly annoyed. Didn't she already explain it to him clearly, it was impossible for them to be together, and they had already divorced. From today onwards, they would each marry and have nothing to do with each other.
"Wife, why haven't I heard that you and this Department Head Jiang know each other before?" Ji Weiyang's eyes became even more devilish, that frivolousness and playfulness made Zhan Yan feel especially glaring.
"Mr. Ji, I think I should remind you that I'm not your wife, but my ex-wife." She could stress the word 'ex-wife'.
Ji Weiyang didn't seem to mind, as he leaned his head against her ear with a smile, and his breath was warm, "Didn't you say that you would change your identity in the next few days, and even insult my ex-wife? Department Head Jiang is still here, you're not afraid of being seen as a joke by outsiders."
After Ji Weiyang finished speaking, his gaze naturally turned towards the man opposite him. That Department Head Jiang was also a discerning person, even if he guessed correctly, he would be able to guess a few clues. Even if Zhan Yan was Ji Weiyang's ex-wife, their boss clearly still had some old feelings for his ex-wife. Naturally, he couldn't lose his job for a woman he had just met.
Very quickly, their food was brought up to the table. Mr. Jiang tactfully stood up to take his leave, while Ji Weiyang was naturally looking forward to see him leave.
Just that, Mr. Jiang had just left, causing Zhan Yan to become angry, "Ji Weiyang, how did you know I was here?"
Ji Weiyang cut the steak with his knife and fork, and casually replied, "Foolish Yan, do you think this is America? You dare to date another man right in front of my eyes? Do you think I will just sit by and do nothing? "
As a result, he had already known that Du Xiaomo was going to arrange a blind date for her, or perhaps he had done something to it, or else how could it be such a coincidence?
So from the start, it was as if he was watching her act out this farce that was destined to end in absurdity like a clown. So, Ji Weiyang, you are simply toying with me.
Thinking about that, Zhan Yan picked up her bag and turned to leave, but was pulled back into her seat by Ji Weiyang.
"Yan Yan, there's no need to be in such a rush to leave, is there? I can't eat so much food by myself, accompany me to eat." He used her fork to fork out a piece of steak, and politely brought it to her lips, but Zhan Yan moved her head away.
"I'm not hungry."
"Even if you're not hungry, you should at least eat a little. You have to eat something for lunch, right?"
"I want to go home and eat, okay?" Zhan Yan opened her beautiful eyes wide.
Yan Yan, haven't you seen the public service advertisement on Central TV recently?" China wastes 2 billion people a year on food, equivalent to 200 million people a year on food rations. It's a shame to waste it, and it's not easy for peasant uncles.
Zhan Yan glared at him, but still picked up her knife and fork, and sliced the steak in front of him with all her strength, it was as if she was cutting Ji Weiyang to vent his anger. Why hadn't she noticed that he was so talkative before?
After the meal, the two of them had a good time eating. Although Zhan Yan did not say a word, and was completely acting as a monologue, but he seemed to be enjoying the show, and would occasionally personally feed the food to her. At first, Zhan Yan had always been dodging the food, but she was not able to continue arguing with him because there were so many pairs of eyes in the restaurant.
The two of them didn't get into as much of a deadlock as they did after feeding each other like this. After dinner, Ji Weiyang drove Zhan Yan back to the Wei family. Along the way, he concentrated on driving. He looked out the window at the scenery with an indifferent expression on his face. Zheng Yuan's classic song "Happy Lovers" was playing on the stereo: "There's a song, and it's sung like this, and people who love each other don't get hurt." "All my life, all my love, all my sweet time, happiness on my face, all my songs, I will love you until the end of the world, there is a saying, I will be your bride, we will be your happy lovers …
Happy lover! Ji Weiyang looked in the rearview mirror, silently and deeply staring at the pale and indifferent face of the girl beside him. If this road could never end, he would rather carry her and continue to walk like this.
The car slowly stopped in front of the Wei Family Villa. Before getting off the car, Ji Weiyang begged, or warned, "Don't do this next time.
Zhan Yan pursed her lips, and did not answer, because under Ji Weiyang's influence, no matter how much she tried to get to know him, the result would still be the same as today.
He watched Zhan Yan leave, and only started the engine and left after she had completely disappeared from the villa. The car sped towards the villa at the top of the mountain, its speed extremely fast, the street lights on both sides of the road kept backing away, and at this time Ji Weiyang's phone rang. It was Tang Feng, the person who called, whom he always asked him to find the person who pulled Lu Anqi out of the police station last time.
"It was the men from the Lee family who did it."
A member of the Li Family would be Li Xiaoqian.
