"Taiping, thank you for today, and your girlfriend!" Zhou Qianyun walked in front of Xu Taiping and said gratefully.
"Who wouldn't have had a hard time?" Xu Taiping shook his head, "Now the most important thing is to find Zheng Baiyu."
"Yes." Zhou Zhiyun nodded, "I'll definitely find him. Oh, right, I'll return your money, I still have a small apartment of my own, so I'll sell it when I get back. I'll repay you as soon as possible, I'll return over a million yuan here to my relatives and friends, is that okay?"
"No rush." Xia Jinxuan said, "Give it back slowly. You're my boyfriend's classmate anyways, and with this friendship, I'm not in a hurry to use the money."
"Thank you so much." Zhou Qianyun reached out and grabbed Xia Jinxuan's hand, saying, "I don't know how to describe my feelings right now. If there's a chance, I will definitely repay you."
"It's too foreign to say that. No matter what, you are the biggest victim today. You have to be strong!" She was nearly ten years younger than Zhou Qianyun, but doing this right now wasn't inappropriate at all. Zhou Qianyun was indeed very pitiful, her face was very pale, she had been holding on from the start, on the day of the great celebration, her husband had run away with all the money, and the person chasing after the debt had even found her a few million yuan. If it weren't for Xu Taiping and Xia Jin, tonight's matter would have been the darkest day in her life, if she wasn't strong enough, she would have already fainted long ago.
"Sorry everyone!" Zhou Qianyun deeply bowed to everyone present and said, "It's my bad judgement that has caused such trouble for everyone, especially Mom and Dad. Your daughter has let you down."
"Don't say it like that, we are a family, if you have any difficulties, you should face it together." Zhou Ziyun's parents walked to her side and hugged her. The surrounding people also comforted her. After all, it was too pitiful to be in such a situation.
Xu Taiping pulled Xia Jinxuan out of the crowd. He also felt that Zhou Jinxuan was very pitiful, but he did not intend to comfort her, because, after all, you were the one who found the man yourself, and if you misjudged him, you would inevitably have to bear the consequences, and Xia Jinxuan had already done enough for him. If Xu Taiping still tried to comfort Zhou Ziyun at this time, even if Xia Jinxuan did not say it, she would still feel uncomfortable, because, in the face of feelings, most women were selfish.
"Thank you." When he first met Xia Jinxuan, he thought that she was a little princess and was a problem. However, as time passed, Xu Taiping understood that Xia Jinxuan was a good woman that was hard to come by in this world, she had all kinds of shortcomings, the princess was sick, but she knew how to be considerate, she was also very smart. There were some things that Xu Taiping couldn't do on his own, and she could even help Xu Taiping do things well.
"Why are you thanking me? "I was just planning for myself. With your personality, you'll definitely take action in the end. I might as well get in front of you so that you won't be the hero saving the beauty. Hmph!" Xia Jinxuan said proudly.
"You really know me. Have you forgotten what happened the first night you met me?" Xu Taiping asked.
"How could I dare to forget? To be honest, if my bodyguard didn't provoke you that night, would you have saved me?" Xia Jinxuan curiously asked.
"Nope." Xu Taiping shook his head, "I'm not that good with worms."
"Hmph, you are speaking the truth and I am not happy. It seems that my charm is still not enough!" Xia Jinxuan said unhappily.
"The reason why the two of them are together is not because of their charm, but because of their attraction and consideration towards each other." Xu Taiping smiled as he rubbed Xia Jinxuan's hand, "What you've attracted me to is not your outer appearance, but your inner self."
"Then if I had a flower like appearance and then had my current inner self, would you choose me?" Xia Jinxuan asked.
"There's no other way to put it." Xu Taiping said awkwardly.
"Look, a man is still a creature with the best appearance. Luckily, I'm pretty enough. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to catch your heart!" Xia Jinxuan said proudly.
As the two of them were flirting, Xu Taiping's classmates suddenly surrounded them.
This time, everyone was no longer looking down on Xu Taiping. Everyone was flattering him, even Teacher Li. Although no one knew of Xu Taiping's actual identity, there was one thing that everyone was sure of, and that was that Xu Taiping was definitely a much stronger person than them. Otherwise, how could the owner of the Hilton Hotel fawn over him?
At this time, Xu Taiping wanted to talk to Xia Jinxuan, but how could he care about these people? He found a random reason to leave the banquet hall and followed Xia Jinxuan upstairs to talk about love.
There were fewer and fewer people left in the banquet hall. After they had comforted each other, they left. In the end, only Zhou Ziyun, her parents, and her brother remained.
Wearing her wedding dress, Zhou Qianyun sat under the champagne pagoda where she had promised Zheng Baiyu an eternal life a few hours ago. Her tears finally couldn't stop flowing down her face.
Only she could truly understand the sorrow and sorrow in her heart. This was a wound that no matter how many consoling words others said, they were unable to heal.
She didn't know what to say. The turn of events had happened too fast, so no one was prepared for it. Now that Zhou Ziyun's wedding was over, she was part of the Zheng Family, but now, all the Zheng Family had left. Zheng Baiyu's parents didn't know where to go, so where should their daughter go?
"Daughter, don't cry." Zhou's mother walked over to sit beside Zhou Qianyun and said, "No matter what, you are still our daughter. At worst, you can just go home. We can support you for the rest of your life. "
"I want to find him." Zhou Siyun said with tears in her eyes, "I don't think he would owe that much money for no reason at all. He should have his own difficulties."
"Silly girl, what other difficulties could you have for a man to run away with all the gifts on the night of their marriage?" Zhou Qianyun's mother sighed, "Daughter, as long as you open it up a little, there's nothing for us to worry about. The worst thing I'm afraid of is that you won't be able to open it, and you still have fantasies about that person."
"But I'm already his wife." Zhou Siyun shook her head, "What else can I do? "Don't tell me I divorced him? But I have to be able to find him as well."
"I'll find him sooner or later!" Zhou Qianyun's mother said, "As long as he is still alive in this world, we will definitely be able to find him. Oh right, that classmate of yours, Xu Taiping, I remember that he used to be someone from our place, right? You were still classmates in high school? "
"En!" Zhou Siyun nodded and said, "However, we haven't seen him for around ten years. I didn't expect that he would have such a drastic change."
"That's why we can't say for sure. Your future is also like this. Be strong, daughter. There is no obstacle that you can't overcome. As long as we work hard together!" Zhou Qianyun's mother said.
"Mom, I know, but I'm really sad." Zhou Zhiyun hugged her mother and cried.
To Xu Taiping, Zhou Qianyun was just a passerby in his life. The feelings from back then had long since disappeared with the passage of time, and now, Zhou Ziyun had become the wife of someone else, even if that person was just a scum.
Xu Taiping and Xia Jinxuan sat in front of the french windows, watching the night scenery outside the window. The two of them embraced each other without saying a word, but the whole thing went on without saying a word.
The next day, Xu Taiping slept until noon.
It had been a long time since he had slept so peacefully. When the sunlight shone through the window, he was standing naked in front of the French window.
Xu Taiping lit up a cigarette, but before he could even take two puffs, Xia Jinxuan grabbed him from behind and took his cigarette out of his mouth.
"You haven't finished coughing yet, so don't smoke. Besides, smoking is not good for your health." Xia Jinxuan put out her cigarette and said.
"Fine." Xu Taiping smiled and said, "I won't smoke anymore."
"Good baby." Xia Jinxuan leaned her head against Xu Taiping's back, closing her eyes, "Right now, the happiest thing for me is to be able to open my eyes and see you by my side."
"We can't be like this after we return to Jiangyuan City." Xu Taiping looked out the window, his eyes flashing with cold light. "If I don't find that person, I won't be able to sleep well."
"Who is that person?" Xia Jinxuan asked.
"I already have some idea. Once I go back, I might be able to find some traces of that person." Xu Taiping said.
Xia Jinxuan nodded, but didn't ask too much. She knew very little about Xu Taiping's past, and she wasn't as curious as him. To her, it was enough to grasp the current Xu Taiping.
In the afternoon, Xu Taiping and Xia Jinxuan had lunch downstairs, then they planned to head back to Jiang Yuan City. Unexpectedly, before the two of them could understand the hotel, Xu Taiping received a call from Zhou Ziyun.
"Tai Ping, you, can you help me? I don't know what to do now." Zhou Qianyun's crying voice came over the phone. Xu Taiping frowned, "What happened?"
"H-he came to find me again. He didn't know where he found out that I had paid off more than 3 million yuan, but now that he came back to apologize to me, I have no idea, I don't know what to do. I don't know why he called you, but I really hope you can help me." Zhou Qianyun sobbed.
Xu Taiping looked at Xia Jinxuan and said, "I'm sorry, Zhiyun, I don't want to interfere in your life. You're an adult, you should be able to decide what to do and what to do."
"Well, well, thanks, thank you." Zhou Qianyun said and hung up.
"What's wrong?" Xia Jinxuan asked.
"Nothing, other people's matters have nothing to do with us." Xu Taiping gently looked at Xia Jinxuan and said with a smile. Mobile users please browse and read, better reading experience.
