Chapter 208
Chapter 212: I Have Long Been Used To Wandering And Not Being Dignified (17)
The marriage of Xu Zhan and Belinda was indeed a win-win deal.
Belinda likes him, but she doesn’t have to. The eldest lady, who portrayed herself as an infatuated goddess in the media, actually had a good time in private, but at the same time, she was not so talented in business. As her father’s only daughter, her father hoped that she could find a suitable son-in-law as his successor after discovering that her ability and character were not enough to inherit this huge business empire.
This candidate must have the ability, talent and courage, but must not have a family background that exceeds the Belinda family. Otherwise, instead of finding a successor for the family, they would recruit a giant crocodile. According to this line of thinking, people like Xu Zhan are completely excluded. Not only does he have more family background than Belinda’s family, but when his peers are still working hard to become the family heir, he has become a real ruler, and he is an extremely terrifying capital crocodile.
Belinda knew her father’s psychology, so she created an image of herself infatuated with Xu Zhan. In this way, her father did not dare to force her to get married earlier.
Their previous cooperation is also as netizens guessed, Xu Zhan is preparing to transform part of his group and enter the information field. In country A, this is already a market that is about to be divided. When Xu Zhan joins at this time, he will inevitably collide with leading companies and compete in the arena, which requires a lot of capital flow. So he found Belinda’s family.
Belinda’s father definitely disagreed at first, but after negotiating the content of the transaction and promising that the newly established company would have 25% of their family’s shares, her father agreed happily. Although traditional energy companies have not yet seen decline, their leaders are full of worries about the future.
And the engagement of Xu Zhan and Belinda is only the most insignificant part of this cooperation. With the news of their upcoming marriage, announcing the alliance of the two groups to the outside world is actually a kind of momentum and the best publicity. But in fact, neither of them planned to get married.
While he was busy at night in country A, there were often all kinds of news that didn’t make him worry. The news of his engagement with Belinda came back to China, and his subordinates told him that after hearing the news, they locked themselves in the room for several days.
While he felt that Chao Ci did not understand the importance and would only add to the chaos, he couldn’t help but feel a little worried. After working overtime for three days and sleeping for less than eight hours, he barely spared two days of rest and went back to China.
When he came back again, he became busier, and even the time to think about that uneasy lover became less and more luxurious. It’s just that when he was in a hurry to fall asleep, he could always think of the young man sitting in front of him that night, raising his head, placing all his hopes, and plucking up his courage to say to him “I want to marry you”.
He remembered that the youth’s voice was trembling, and the water in his eyes seemed to condense into tears at any time.
He showed a calm face at that time, and calmly rejected him.
But only he knew that his own heart was like a turbulent touch at that time.
So much so that when he dreamed back in the middle of the night, he could always see Ai’s desperate eyes and the voice of “I want to marry you”.
…marry?
It doesn’t seem like it can’t be considered.
One day in a dream, when he thought of this scene again, a thought that shocked him even came up in his heart.
But such a thought is like a floodgate, and when it is finally opened, the thoughts that follow it pour out like a flood.
Yeah, why not?
His feelings for Chao Ci were never as indifferent as he appeared.
A long time ago, he realized that he had an extraordinary love for this lover who was originally a whim.
He originally only regarded him as a dispensable substitute for Li Huaijing, but I don’t know when it started, his feelings for him far exceeded this category. He couldn’t even be without him for a day, sometimes working overtime or on a business trip for a few days, he would miss him like a demon. And the speed of development of this kind of feeling is as fast as the wild grass is soaring.
But he was not willing to admit his exaggerated love for his lover in a long speech. He feels that this kind of feeling is an irrational infatuation. He is self-disciplined and accustomed to taking his own life firmly in his own hands, while this abnormal infatuation with a lover is as uncontrollable as a virus. The lethality is huge.
He subconsciously rejected it.
Not only that, but he would often think of his first meeting with the youth, when the youth was deliberately seducing his niece.
Relying on his Asmodeus-like appearance, his gleaming peach eyes are half-closed, and he seduces others with a slack and mastery.
Everyone was seduced by his wishful thinking, and the same was true of his always strong niece, I am afraid they don’t even remember who they are. And among them, the people who were seduced also included him.
The young man can win the heart of anyone if he wants to. Almost at the first sight of the young man, he could see his demagogic nature.
But at that time Xu Zhan didn’t care about it. He was indeed lured by the youth, and he happened to have a look very similar to Li Huaijing, so he accepted it.
But when his own heart began to get out of control, he began to care like a demon.
He was thinking, if he didn’t come, would the young man be like this to Yawen? Or someone else, because of that banquet, the young man was far more than just seduced by one person!
The young man showed that he loved him very much and cared about him very much, but he thought, does he really care about himself like this? Or is he like this no matter who it is? Is it for the money, or does he just like to play tricks on people’s hearts and sneer in secret?
Xu Zhan, who has always been invincible, also has such moments of worrying about gains and losses.
But these are the thoughts buried in the deepest part of his heart, even he himself is not aware of and unwilling to admit. What he can realize is that he is unwilling to show his extraordinary infatuation with him in front of Chao Ci, or… liking him.
He even likes to deliberately say something that he knows will be sad when he says it, and then looks at his red eyes and water-colored eyes, and thinks with pantothenic acid in his heart and almost coldly, how real are you like this?
Are you really jealous, do you really want to monopolize me, or is it all just a way to play with people’s hearts?
When his first scandal erupted, his first reaction was worry. He was afraid that Chao Ci would blame him and feel sad when he saw the news. But after that, he was looking forward and nervous again. He was thinking, will Chao Ci really be sad?
Intentionally or not, he took this as a test.
The testable result hit the worst answer. The young man didn’t care, as if the previous concerns about him were all false.
His heart was suddenly filled with anger, and there was sourness that was surging but not recognized by him.
So he brought the young man to that dinner party. He didn’t know whether he wanted to scare him or punish him. It’s just that he didn’t expect Li Huaijing to be there, and his relationship with Li Huaijing, as well as his thought of using the court speech as Li Huaijing’s stand-in, were all spoken out by Sun Lanzhou.
Xu Zhan’s face was calm, but his heart was unstoppably nervous and worried.
It is normal for Sun Lanzhou to look at court speeches. Chao Ci was born with a hard-to-find appearance, not to mention Sun Lanzhou was born cold. But Xu Zhan didn’t think of this at first, he took Chao Ci there, but he knew that these scumbags always treated their lovers with contempt, he brought Chao Ci, just to let Chao Ci see, others are How to treat his lover, and how he treats the court farewell.
When Sun Lanzhou said that he wanted to “borrow” the court speech from him for a few days, Xu Zhan almost wanted to pick up the wine bottle on the table and give him a scoop on his head.
However, he resisted it, and instead threw this question to Chaoci.
He almost masochistically wanted to see Chao Ci’s reaction.
Chao Ci just called him “Sir” in a panic, and he threw away his armor and pulled the man into his arms, protecting him tightly.
Sometimes he doesn’t know what he wants.
When Chao Ci was obedient and obedient, he was worried about gains and losses and insisted on making this person sad. When Chao Ci was really sad and panicked, it was himself who was distressed.
His lover was obviously so close to him, and he clearly showed that he cared so much about him.
But he always felt that Chao Ci was like a gentle wind and a handful of warm sand, which seemed beautiful, but could never be grasped in the palm of his hand.
Time may be the herb that heals everything, and three years is not the same as months.
No matter how much he worries about gains and losses, after three years, the young man’s love and care for him has filled the inexplicable cracks in his heart.
He thought that the youth loved him.
He forced this person to feel sad again and again, and he got self-abuse-like proof from it again and again.
until the idea became stronger and stronger.
So…what’s wrong with getting married?
Even if he had never thought about it before.
But once this thought was raised and passed through his mind once, it couldn’t stop.
After marrying Chao Ci, they will be legal partners in the future. They will go on like this for the rest of their lives, and they will be buried together even when they die.
He thinks it’s good, even if he still has some concerns…
Look again, look again.
Give him more security, and let him find more excuses for himself.
He is in country A, and the engagement date with Belinda is getting closer.
He heard that Chao Ci gave Uncle Lin and those people a holiday, and he was alone in the villa for many days without coming out.
He must be sad.
Xu Zhan was very distressed, but for some reason, he was always reluctant to say soft words to him.
Just wait until he returns home.
It’s just that he hasn’t waited for him to return to China, and he has waited for the news that Chao Ci was gone.
