Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 726 - 684: A Son of the Zhan Family Comes of Age
Yan Yu fell in love with You Mei at first sight, but looking at You Mei, it seemed she had feelings for Zhan Yunxiao.
In a moment of determination, he revealed the fact that Zhan Yunxiao was already married, hoping You Mei would back off.
But who would have thought, You Mei looked dejected and said, "I know, he told me. This is also one of the reasons I want to leave."
"You’re leaving Jiangcheng?" Yan Yu was shocked.
You Mei gave a bitter smile, rubbing her pendant, and said, "He’s been very good to me, took me out to dinner, gave me gifts, and was willing to chat about life with me. But he’s already married, and I came into his life too late. I can’t blame anyone, I don’t want to be a woman who causes his wife to misunderstand, and I refuse to be that kind of woman. So only by leaving here can everything come to an end."
"You don’t have to leave because of that!" Yan Yu said softly.
You Mei smiled without saying a word.
Soon, the waiter served the dishes, and the two of them switched topics, chatting while eating.
After dropping You Mei home, Yan Yu went to the hospital to report to Zhan Yunxiao.
However, his tone was not good.
Xia Luo was not there.
With a stern face, he said to Zhan Yunxiao, "I’ve already helped Miss You with everything. She said she’ll leave Jiangcheng. She hasn’t set a time yet, doesn’t Zhan feel guilty at all?"
Zhan Yunxiao was completely confused, guilty about what?
Moreover, what was his tone supposed to mean?
"Yan Yu, what do you mean?" Zhan Yunxiao asked.
Yan Yu scoffed, glanced outside, saw Xia Luo was not around, then lowered his voice and said, "Zhan, I really didn’t expect you to be this kind of person. Having your cake and eating it too, you’re already married, didn’t you say you liked Miss Xia? Why are you still giving Miss You hope?"
"What hope am I giving Miss You? Who am I giving hope to?" Zhan Yunxiao was even more bewildered.
"Hmph, just as I thought, you won’t admit it."
Yan Yu scoffed, then left in anger.
Zhan Yunxiao: "..."
As Yan Yu left, he almost bumped into Xia Luo.
Xia Luo was startled.
If it had been before, Yan Yu would have surely apologized to her, but this time, he just left without a word.
Xia Luo walked to Zhan Yunxiao’s bedside and asked, "What’s wrong with Special Assistant Yan?"
"Who knows, acting like he took gunpowder," Zhan Yunxiao said, face dark.
"Did you offend him?" Xia Luo asked.
Zhan Yunxiao: "I’m the boss. He’s the assistant. How could I offend him? If he keeps throwing tantrums like this, he can only be sent to Africa for construction."
"Alright, alright, don’t be mad. I bought some cold noodles, have a taste."
Xia Luo hurried to comfort him, taking out the cold noodles she bought for him to eat.
Zhan Yunxiao’s expression finally improved somewhat.
After staying in the hospital for two days, they confirmed there was nothing wrong before they processed the discharge papers.
Actually, in his condition, he didn’t need to stay for two days.
He just enjoyed being cared for by Xia Luo, so he insisted on staying for two days.
But there was too much work to do, he couldn’t stay in the hospital forever, so he had to be discharged.
Once discharged, Zhan Yunxiao was swamped with work.
He had to handle company affairs and also matters with the Hu Family and He Family.
After Hu Feifei woke up, she confessed truthfully to the police.
This matter could be big or small, depending on how Zhan Yunxiao handled it.
The Hu Family and He Family were practically kneeling and begging for his forgiveness, sending numerous intermediaries to plead on their behalf.
Finally, Zhan Yunxiao agreed not to press charges against the two.
However, both families made considerable compensations as a result.
Zhan Yunxiao also had someone spread the word about this incident, making those women who coveted him think twice: did they have thicker resources than the Hu and He Families to dare harbor delusions about him?
Zhan Yunxiao was busy, and Xia Luo returned to her normal life, going to school for classes every day.
But she noticed that You Mei had disappeared.
For two consecutive days, she didn’t see You Mei at school.
She called You Mei, but there was no answer.
"Do you know where You Mei went?"
Xia Luo asked a classmate from You Mei’s department.
The classmate said, "She seems to be sick."
"Sick? Do you know where she’s staying?" Xia Luo asked.
The classmate shook her head, "She’s a day student, doesn’t live in the school dorms, I don’t know where she stays. You can ask the teacher, they should have records."
"Okay, thank you," Xia Luo expressed her gratitude.
She went to find the teacher, who knew she was friends with You Mei, quickly retrieved You Mei’s address for her.
"She seems to be leaving. She’s already applying for a transfer. She’s a very smart girl, it’s a pity she hasn’t been here long before transferring," the teacher said.
Xia Luo frowned.
Was You Mei transferring?
She never mentioned it to her.
"If you can persuade her to stay, I’ll give you extra credit," the teacher joked with Xia Luo.
Xia Luo smiled awkwardly, "I’ll do my best."
After getting You Mei’s address, Xia Luo hurried over to find her.
Unexpectedly, as she was nearing the door, she saw a familiar figure enter.
Zhan Yunxiao?
Xia Luo’s heart skipped a beat.
She was all too familiar with Zhan Yunxiao’s silhouette; she could recognize him even if he changed clothes.
Moreover, he hadn’t changed at all, still in the suit she personally picked for him before he left.
An uneasy feeling welled up within her.
In a trance, she followed him inside, seeing the elevator stop at the twenty-first floor.
Upon recalling that the address the teacher gave her was also on the twenty-first floor.
So, she went up using another elevator.
When she arrived, the other elevator had long stopped.
Zhan Yunxiao had already come out.
Instead of looking for him, Xia Luo headed towards the address the teacher had given her to find You Mei.
For some reason, a strong feeling came over her.
Maybe You Mei and Zhan Yunxiao knew each other.
Sure enough, when she turned the corner, she saw You Mei’s door open.
Zhan Yunxiao entered, and You Mei seemed to happily give him a hug.
But quickly, You Mei closed the door.
Seeing this, Xia Luo felt dizzy, her body swaying as if she might collapse.
You Mei had told her she liked a certain man.
A very outstanding man, but their relationship wasn’t confirmed yet.
Could it be, the person she was talking about has always been Zhan Yunxiao?
"Xiao, where are you?"
Even after witnessing it herself, Xia Luo refused to give up hope.
She took out her phone and called Zhan Yunxiao. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"I’m...at the company, what’s up?"
Zhan Yunxiao paused for a few seconds before answering.
Xia Luo’s heart sank.
"It’s nothing, I just wanted you to come home now, there’s something I forgot and need you to bring it to me," Xia Luo said.
Han Yunxiao hesitated for a few seconds on the other end, then said after a moment, "Luoluo, I’m busy right now, I can’t leave. Can it wait a bit? I’ll bring it to you later."
"Alright, no rush," Xia Luo hung up the phone.
When Zhan Yunxiao heard the "beep beep beep" sound on the other end, he suddenly remembered Xia Luo didn’t tell him what to bring.
As he was about to call back, You Mei had already snatched his phone away.
"We agreed, no touching phones today, we’re going to drink the night away."
