She packed simply before going out. She then went to the hospital and told Zheng Hongjuan that she was going there.

Zheng Hongjuan seemed to be reluctant to part with her, holding her hand as she escorted her to the elevator. She repeatedly asked her when she would return, and if not when she would return, they would never see each other again.

Xia Zhi did not go and say goodbye to Han Jing. For some reason, she did not want to tell him that Pei Yaochen had mysteriously given up and disappeared.

If Yi Zihan was not here, he would not be able to do it.

She was worried that Yang Yazhu would randomly guess her relationship with Han Jing once again when she heard about this situation.

A woman in love always made wild guesses and wished she could see all women but herself as rivals in love.

An hour and a half later, Xia Zhi boarded a flight to New York.

When she looked out the window at the rolling sea of clouds, her heart was filled with emotion.

A few months ago, she thought that it was her and Pei Yaochen's farewell.

Who knew that before long, he would appear right in front of her, proclaim that he was in love with her, and meet her for the rest of his life.

When she fell into a daze, she truly decided to not care about her status as an ugly duckling and climbed up to him. However, he once again left without a sound without any forewarning.

She was caught completely off guard by the heartlessness of his departure.

Even now, she still couldn't believe it.

Because it was still his desperate passion to save her that lingered in her mind.

She didn't want to face reality unless she saw him marry another woman and heard him say with her own eyes that he didn't love her anymore, that everything he had ever done was just a casual joke!

Only in this way would she give up!

Therefore, she had to find him. No matter how terrible or cruel the situation that would follow, she had to find the truth!

She, Xia Zhi, had never been willing to live her life in a daze.

This kind of character might bring her more pain than an ordinary girl, but she still wanted to live on with a clear conscience and die without a doubt!

Along the way, Xia Zhi's mind continued to wander. Sometimes, she would think that when she got off the plane, he would embrace her with a doting smile on her face, and sometimes she would think that he would just stand there and look down on her.

Just like this, she sometimes held boundless hope, and sometimes felt despair and sorrow. She would laugh and cry like a fool …

And at this moment, Pei Yaochen was standing in front of the window with his brows furrowed, looking at the patrolling sentries in the courtyard.

There were about twice as many of them as usual, which was unusual.

Could something have happened in the sect? Someone had attacked?

If so, that would be great.

He had been waiting for this opportunity to slip out.

As long as he could get out, he would have the ability to turn the tables!

As he was lost in thought, he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. Xie Ziyi's voice gently sounded from behind him, "Big Brother Yao Chen, I came to tell you a secret."

Pei Yaochen bellowed, "Scram!"

Ever since Xie Ziyi had betrayed him time and time again, he no longer trusted her at all, and even felt disgusted when he looked at her.

This time, he really gave up on her completely.

Xie Ziyi still walked in, and stood within a meter of him, and continued: "But I think this secret is something that you must be extremely interested in knowing right now. Because this secret was related to Xia Zhi. Don't you want to know how she's doing? "

Pei Yaochen suddenly turned and stared at her sinisterly, "You are not allowed to mention her name! "Also, let me warn you, don't think about doing anything to her!"

"I wasn't the one who wanted her. It was her grandfather who was after her. You don't know, she's on her way to find you. Pappy had arranged for her to be arrested as soon as she got off the plane, and had heard that he was going to send her to a deserted island full of criminals. I felt that this was too cruel, and though I hated her, I still felt that she should not be treated this way. So, I beg Grandpa not to do this. "Grandfather agreed, but only if I can convince you to agree to a condition." Xie Ziyi said softly, "Do you want to try and hear it?"

When Pei Yaochen heard this, he could not help but be enraged. He dared not not not believe what Xie Ziyi had said.

This was because Xia Zhi was such a stubborn person. No matter what happened, no matter if it was good or bad, she would always get to the bottom of it.

As for Pei Junshan, he was more clear than anyone else about just how cruel Pei Junshan could be in order to achieve his goals.

Therefore, even though he wanted to kill someone, he had no choice but to suppress his rage.

He coldly asked, "Tell me."

"Xia Zhi will arrive at the New York tomorrow night, so her first stop will definitely be to go to your place. Grandfather wants me to play an ambiguous farce with you in front of her, so you can say a few heartless words and let her take the initiative to leave."

"That's all?" Pei Yaochen raised his eyebrows.

"Of course not. In order to put an end to her thoughts, Grandpa wants you and me to get married as soon as possible. Of course, my grandfather said that if you are unable to accept me within a year after the wedding, then you will be allowed to divorce me, and then you can do whatever you want. Even if you were to go and find Xia Zhi, he would not care. This is the condition that he asked for, do you agree? " When Xie Ziyi said this, her heart was thumping hard, afraid that he would refuse.

However, in the next moment, she was ecstatic.

Because Pei Yaochen had clearly told her that he was willing.

She did not close her mouth as she hurriedly said to him, "That's great. Then I'll tell grandpa right now to not let his people move! "

Looking at Xie Ziyi's back figure, a trace of scheming flashed across Pei Yaochen's eyes.

When the plane finally arrived at New York, Xia Zhi stood up, but hesitated. After hesitating for a long while, she stood up and followed the crowd out of the plane.

When she walked out of the gate, she looked around greedily. When she realized that there was no trace of Pei Yaochen at all, her heart fiercely throbbed in pain.

Fantasy, it really was just an illusion …

Xia Zhi laughed bitterly and quickened her pace.

40 minutes later, she stood in front of Pei Yaochen's house.

Looking at the bright lights in the room, she was inexplicably excited. She ran forward a few steps and pressed the doorbell.

The door opened, and a familiar, familiar face appeared before her.

He was still as handsome as ever, but his indifference had returned. This time, even his gaze towards her was icy cold to the extreme.

Xia Zhi opened her mouth, but suddenly discovered that she could not say a single word.

Pei Yaochen asked indifferently: "Why are you here?"

"I... "I …" She even said two words, but in the end, she did not even manage to utter a complete sentence.

Pei Yaochen turned his body, "Since you're here, then come in and take a seat. Maybe there are some things that we really need to discuss clearly. "

Xia Zhi nodded her head and walked out. Before she even sat down on the sofa, a clear and melodious voice followed by the sound of hurried footsteps sounded out, "Yao Chen, it's so late. Who's here?"

She suddenly raised her head, only to see Xie Ziyi, who was wearing a white nightgown and had scattered hair, quickly rushing down from the stairs.

Her arms and thighs and a large chunk of her chest were exposed.

When she rushed down the stairs, she stopped in her tracks and looked at Xia Zhi in shock, "Uh. "Why are you here?"

She stood there delicately, her beautiful young body clearly illuminated by the bright light.

Xie Ziyi wasn't wearing anything underneath …

Xia Zhi's heart felt like it had been struck hard by a sledgehammer. She was struck with so much pain that she couldn't speak anymore.

Pei Yaochen frowned, he raised his head and said to Xie Ziyi coldly: "Xia Zhi and I have a few words to say, go upstairs first."

Xie Ziyi nodded meekly, "Okay. "But hurry up, don't stay too long, I'm afraid that waiting too long will cause you to fall asleep."

"Got it." Pei Yaochen waved and turned back towards the kitchen.

Xie Ziyi curled her lips, but still went upstairs with a twist of her body.

But after a while, Pei Yaochen walked out with a bowl of steaming hot noodles and a cup of milk, and greeted Xia Zhi who had her head lowered in a daze, "You must not have eaten anything yet, right? "I've prepared a bowl of beef noodles for you. Come over and have some."

Xia Zhi raised her head to look at him, "Is this our last meal?"

Pei Yaochen said calmly: "This is not the last meal of your life, but you can take it as the last meal that I, Pei Yaochen, will make for you."

Xia Zhi nodded, she stood up and stood in front of him, staring deeply at him, and asked softly: "So we really did end it?"

"You can think of it that way." Pei Yaochen remained calm and collected.

"Why?"

"I'm tired. I'm tired of being your hero. I tried, but I was tired. I still like a lighter life. "You've made me tired."

"It's not because your grandfather forced you to?"

"Do you think I might be coerced by him?" Pei Yaochen laughed sarcastically, "I didn't, I won't and I won't do it in the future. My life will be in my own hands. "

When Xia Zhi heard this, she felt a little powerless. Her lips were trembling violently. You've always been arrogant enough to make him sick. "It seems like I was right."

"Yes." You are a wise man, and I knew you would guess my true thoughts before I disappeared. It's just that I didn't expect you to come all the way here to ask for the truth even though you had already guessed that I had given up completely. Why? You've ruined the last bit of beauty between us. "

"What I want is your final decision! If you are determined, I will give up! " Xia Zhi reached out and splashed the scalding beef noodle soup into his face.
