A few days later, the court suddenly informed Du Anran and Bai Ruyun that the plaintiff had dropped the lawsuit.

When they received the news, Du Anran and her daughter both had the same expression, both happy and shocked.

The Sky suddenly became clear, and even the gray smog dissipated. The Sun shone on their faces, and they both felt as if they had survived a desperate situation.

“Mom, don’t worry. I told you that Shihe has already settled the matter. If they come again, they’ll be pushing their luck. The court will definitely give us a fair judgment, ” Du Anran said happily.

“That’s great. The lawsuit came and went quickly. Fortunately, it was a false alarm. ” Bai Ruyun also calmed down. A smile finally appeared on her gloomy face after so many days.

“Mom, don’t worry now. Don’t lose sleep at night again. ”

“Well, I won’t. I’m finally relieved, ” Bai Ruyun said with a smile. “The plaintiff has finally found a conscience and knows that Shihe didn’t mistreat them. ”

“I think… I should thank someone… ” du Anran said with a smile …

“Who is it? ” Bai Ruyun saw her mysterious smile.

“Xie Chenjin, ” Du Anran said.

“really? He must have helped us a lot! ”

“Yes, so I plan to visit him and thank him! ”

Du Anran was in a good mood. After the people from the court left, she went to the Xie family. During this period of time, she came to the Xie family more frequently. Everyone in the Xie family almost knew her, and they even gossiped about her relationship with Xie Chenjin.

Most people said that Du Anran was Xie Chenjin’s new girlfriend, but the people from the Xie family were generally friendlier than the people from the Xin family. It was probably because Xie Chenjin was usually kind to people.

Most people saw that Du Anran did not put on airs, so they politely greeted her.

As soon as she entered Xie Chenjin’s office, she went straight to the point and thanked him. Xie Chenjin was reading the financial news with a cup of coffee in his hand.

When he heard her thank him, he did not look surprised at all. Instead, he looked indifferent.

“I’m not happy to say thank you. Let me treat you to dinner tonight! ” Du Anran said.

“You don’t have to thank me. I don’t need to take credit for myself. ” Xie Chenjin did not raise his head. He took a sip of coffee and continued to read the newspaper.

“what… Does that mean? The plaintiff dropped the lawsuit. You must have helped me. I can’t think of anyone else… ”

“someone found the plaintiff’s representative before I did. In the end, that person was instigated by someone. As for the details, it’s more appropriate for you to ask Xin Zimo. ”

Xie Chenjin still did not raise his head. As soon as he finished speaking, a tinge of bitterness welled up in his heart.

“Xin Zimo? Why… why would he help me? ” Du Anran was very surprised. “could it be that he did this? ”

“I said, as for the details, it’s more appropriate for you to ask him! ” Xie Chenjin repeated, and there was clearly impatience in his tone.

“Oh! ” Du Anran knew that Xie Chenjin had an inexplicable impatience when he mentioned Xin Zimo’s name, so she did not ask further.

“But I still have to thank you. Let me treat you to a meal! ”

“invite whoever you want. Don’t drag me into it! ” Xie Chenjin was already very impatient.

Du Anran did not dare to say anything more and left his office. She knew that if he was unhappy, his face would be as ugly as Xin zimo’s.

She did not want to look at his face. Forget it, he said that it was Xin Zimo’s gang. She would just pretend that she did not know, so that Xin zimo would not make any unreasonable demands.

On a certain wide road, a red convertible Ferrari was speeding on the empty road.

The surrounding trees were retreating at an alarming speed, and dust was flying everywhere.

There was a Mercedes following closely behind the Ferrari. Xin Zimo turned a corner and directly cut through a lane on the side, crossing in front of the Ferrari at lightning speed.

Chi Xue felt the brakes being stepped on. She looked at Xin Zimo in shock, and her forehead was already covered in cold sweat.

Xin Zimo was very calm. He rolled down the window and glanced at Chi Xue.

Due to the speed and wind, Chi Xue’s hair was disheveled on her face. She shouted at Xin Zimo, “brother Zimo, you don’t want to live anymore! ”

“You have to believe in my driving skills, ” Xin Zimo said indifferently.

“But you know what happens if I don’t step on the brakes… ”

“You have to believe in the performance of the Ferrari. ”

Chi Xue was still in shock. Xin Zimo was indeed calm and composed. The wind blew into Chi Xue’s convertible and blew up her hair. Other than the sound of the wind, there was almost no sound in the surroundings.

This road was very quiet. It was so quiet that Chi Xue was hallucinating. Was it because she and Xin Zimo were the only ones left in the world.

She looked at the side of Xin Zimo’s face. The firm lines on his face and the perfect curve were still so pleasing to the eye. She could not get tired of looking at him.

She was also dressed very beautifully today. She was wearing a red long-sleeved dress. The color blended with the car, like a Red Lotus blooming between heaven and earth.

“Why did you chase me here? I just wanted to take a break… ” Chi Xue said quietly.

“I just wanted to take a break too. We’re on the same road. ” Xin zimo looked at her.

“I don’t need anyone to accompany me, ” Chi Xue said.

If it was in the past, Xin Zimo’s words would have warmed her heart. But now, she was already numb. How could she still be worthy of Xin Zimo.

“Do you still remember when we were young, I used to take you out of the courtyard to play around in the wild, causing us to be scolded by adults? ”

How could Chi Xue not remember? If they were not childhood sweethearts, how could she not forget him.

After so many years, she had never forgotten him. Even though his age and appearance were changing, her feelings for him had never changed.

It was a pity that she loved him, but he never loved her.

Chi Xue nodded and fell into memories.

At that time, she was so innocent. Xin zimo lived in the same courtyard as her. Her father often forced her to carry Tang Shi. When he saw that she was absent-minded, he secretly took her out to play.

He took her along all the streets and alleys of city a without ever getting lost.

At that time, he was her idol in her heart. She was amazed that he could remember all the roads at such a young age.

Therefore, she was always the one who lost her way while he was always clear-headed.

“The scenery at that time was different from the scenery now. City a has also undergone tremendous changes. If you stay where you are, you will find that you can’t keep up with the pace of others, ” Xin Zimo continued.

“I don’t need to keep up with the pace of others. I just need to follow my heart, ” Chi Xue retorted.

“But if your heart is blurry, why do you still follow? ” Xin Zimo said, “It’s like walking in the fog. You can only see a part of the road, not the whole road. ”

“BUT MY HEART IS NOT BLURRY! ”

“We haven’t seen each other for 20 years. We were still children at that time. How can a child know what the future is, what love is, and what responsibility is? ” Compared to Chi Xue’s expression, Xin Zimo was still very calm.

“20 years ago, I was ignorant, but 20 years later, I still love you. Isn’t that enough? ”

“A one-sided love, your efforts and gains will definitely not be proportional. You can completely manage a love that is mutually pleasing. That is the best answer for yourself. ”

“I can’t do it. ” Chi Xue gritted her teeth.

“It’s not that you can’t do it, it’s that you aren’t willing to try. ”

As if the truth was exposed by Xin Zimo, Chi Xue bit her lip and bit deeper. Yes, she was unwilling to accept others. Why could so many women love him, but she couldn’t.

“Then, brother Zimo, why aren’t you willing to try loving me? ”ChiiXuee asked in return.

“If I had a love that was mutually pleasing, why would I try anything else? ”XinnZimoo’s face was indifferent.

Mutual affection… … Him and Du Anran ? ?

Chi Xue found it funny, but now she no longer had the right to mock anyone. After what happened in the hotel, she still had no face to talk about love with him.

“Let go of the past and start over. Spring has arrived. Work Hard, and you’ll get unexpected gains, ” Xin zimo said to Chi Xue.

“brother Zimo, I know that I don’t even have the right to stand by your side, let alone not make you like me. But even so, I won’t fall in love with anyone else. ”

“Cui Hao treats you very well. You can try to accept him. He really listens to everything you say. ” Xin zimo changed the topic. His tone no longer had the calmness from before, but was filled with ridicule.

“Him? ” Chi Xue sneered. “He’s just a shameless playboy who spends all day with women. He has no ambition, spends my money, and doesn’t do any proper work. How can I like such a person? ”

“He’s just confused for a moment, not to mention that he’s still young. You can try to make him change, rather than instigating him to go further and further down the wrong path. ”

“brother Zimo, it seems that you already know. Why, do you feel sorry for him? I’m just asking Cui Hao to play with Du Anran. ” Chi Xue showed some disdain on her face.

“I’ve told you many times that you’re not allowed to touch du Anran. ” Xin Zimo’s tone was cold, and his sharp eyes stared straight at Chi Xue.

“Not Allowed? What if I insist on touching her? Brother Zimo, you’d rather make me sad and desperate, but you’re not willing to let her suffer any losses. You’re really biased. ”

“If you dare to touch her, don’t blame me for not recognizing you as my sister. ” He had shown mercy because she had called him “brother. ” If it had been anyone else, they would have died countless times.

“brother Zimo, do you care about her so much? But I don’t think she cares about you so much, right? Aren’t you afraid that when she marries another man in the future, all your efforts and gains won’t be proportional? ” Chi Xue’s tone was filled with ridicule.

“there won’t be such a day! ” Xin Zimo was resolute and decisive.

“Brother Zimo, your confidence is just a mask for others to see. I’m afraid that it’s not up to you to decide whether there will be such a day, ” Chi Xue mocked.

“Didn’t anyone tell you that in city a, as long as I want to make the decision, no one can stop me? ”
