"Of course he is good, otherwise would I introduce him to Secretary Song?" Qiu Hengde knew Xie Fang's intention and snorted, "You are not planning to introduce Xiao Fang to Yu Xin, are you? This is not appropriate!"
Xie Fang frowned and said unhappily, "What's inappropriate? Do you think Yu Xin is older than Xiao Fang and has a daughter?"
Qiu Hengde waved his hands quickly and said with a wry smile: "This is just a superficial problem. It mainly depends on how the two get along with each other. Didn't you see that Yu Xin is not interested in Xiao Fang? Your sister has experienced a serious emotional injury. She has very high standards."
Xie Fang glanced at Qiu Hengde, snorted, and said, "I don't think so. Yu Xin needs a young man who knows how to be considerate and knows when to stop. Although Xiao Fang's financial situation is a little bit worse, he has good character and can do housework. If the two of them get to know each other better, maybe sparks will fly."
Qiu Hengde curled his lips and sighed, "If you want to intervene, go ahead and try. I don't want to meddle in women's affairs!"
Xie Fang chuckled and stretched out her hand, saying, "Then give me Xiaofang's phone number, and I'll play matchmaker and see if I can bring about a marriage."
Qiu Hengde shook his head helplessly. Unable to resist Xie Fang's request, he finally gave Fang Zhicheng's cell phone number to Xie Fang.
…
Lele fell asleep in the back seat. Fang Zhicheng sat in the passenger seat and secretly glanced at Xie Yuxin.
The car radio was playing "The Kite and the Wind", "Without lights, how can the back figure set out on the road; without clouds, the sky would not feel high; it would be so great if he and I were made for each other. How can I run with one hand? I'm afraid of falling down..."
Xie Yuxin couldn't help but hum along with the melody. Although her voice was very soft, it was melodious and filled with deep emotions. Fang Zhicheng felt his heart was broken.
This kind of heart-pounding feeling is like that of a fanatic who has been chasing stars for years and is able to be alone with his idol, and the sense of happiness that overflows his whole body.
Xie Yuxin suddenly stopped humming and asked, "I have a question!"
Fang Zhicheng was slightly startled and asked curiously: "What's the problem?"
"Why would you risk your life to save my brother-in-law?" Xie Yuxin turned down the volume of the car stereo.
"Instinct?" Fang Zhicheng answered briefly.
Xie Yuxin smiled faintly and said: "It's a lie..."
Fang Zhicheng asked back: "Then why do you think it is?"
Xie Yuxin raised her slender willow-shaped eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "You are a smart person. You know that at that moment, it was the biggest opportunity in your life. Saving my brother-in-law also means that you have made a breakthrough."
Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly and said, "So in your eyes, I am a very sinister conspirator?"
Xie Yuxin nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course. If it were an ordinary family, would you easily agree to accompany their niece to the amusement park?"
Xie Yuxin's voice is very sweet, but her words are extremely sharp. In news programs, one can often feel Xie Yuxin's "murderous aura". Fang Zhicheng never expected that he would have the opportunity to feel Xie Yuxin's "domineering" in real life.
Fang Zhicheng shrugged and explained, "In the moment before I went into the water, many thoughts went through my mind, including what you said, saving people with utilitarian purposes. However, I think, in the final analysis, I was still forced by instinct. I have learned to swim before, and I am very good at it. No one present has this ability except me. If I don't go down to save Minister Qiu, I will definitely feel uneasy many years later. As for agreeing to take Lele to the playground, it was because I felt that she was very lonely. Like her, I grew up in a single-parent family. Although my mother provided me with a happy and pure living environment, I still yearn for warmth, excitement, and attention more than others..."
Hearing about single-parent families, Xie Yuxin's face changed slightly. After a long time, she said softly: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
"It's okay. I know you are acting out of motherly instinct. You think I approached Lele on purpose, so you want to protect her. It's a good thing that we can speak our minds and clear up the misunderstandings between each other." Fang Zhicheng shook his head and smiled gently. "Please drop me off in the alley ahead. It's not far from the neighborhood where I live. I can walk back."
After Fang Zhicheng got out of the car and walked forward a few steps, Xie Yuxin rolled down the window and called softly, "Sunday, can you do what you promised Lele?"
Fang Zhicheng turned around, made an OK gesture, and said with a smile: "Of course. A gentleman's word is as good as gold!"
Xie Yuxin did not respond, but stepped on the accelerator and the car drove away. Fang Zhicheng stared blankly for a long time.
…
After returning to his floor, Fang Zhicheng saw light coming through the crack of the door of Cheng Bin's house next door. He stood there for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to ring the doorbell.
Not long after, the door was opened, and Qin Yuming was seen with her face bare and her eyes red and swollen from crying, which made people feel distressed.
"What's wrong? Sister-in-law!" Fang Zhicheng asked with concern.
Qin Yuming opened the door, her body trembling. When Fang Zhicheng walked in, she threw herself into his arms.
Fang Zhicheng didn't have a single blasphemous thought in his mind. He knew that Qin Yuming had suffered a great blow. He slowly helped Qin Yuming to sit on the sofa, got up and poured a glass of water for Qin Yuming, and asked softly, "Sister-in-law, tell me carefully, is it that Brother Cheng who did something dirty again?"
Qin Yuming took a tissue from the tissue box and wiped her tears. After a long while, she said, "I just received a call from a woman. She asked me to divorce Cheng Bin and told me why Cheng Bin didn't come home during this period. It turned out that Cheng Bin went to Yunnan to travel with that woman."
"How hateful!" Fang Zhicheng swung a fist and hit the tea vapor. The fruit plate on the table jumped up a few inches due to the vibration, and a purple grape rolled down with the force.
Fang Zhicheng felt very aggrieved. He had lent Cheng Bin 11,000 yuan in total. This guy said that he was hiding from the limelight, but in fact he was traveling around with his lover. How unpleasant it felt.
Eleven thousand was all his savings. If Cheng Bin had used it on Qin Yuming, he would have had no objection, but when he used it on Ye Hua, he was furious.
Qin Yuming was in low spirits. She choked up and said, "I don't know what to do. In fact, this family has long been broken up. Perhaps, I should let him go free, divorce him, and let him and that woman be together."
"Don't do that!" Fang Zhicheng realized that what he said was insincere, so he gently advised, "Don't listen to that vixen's one-sided words. Wait until you meet Brother Cheng, and then sit down and talk it over carefully, and then make a decision."
Fang Zhicheng was actually overjoyed when he heard that Qin Yuming was going to divorce. For Qin Yuming, divorce was not a bad thing. They had no children, so even if Qin Yuming divorced, she would not miss him. If Fang Zhicheng took the initiative to pursue Qin Yuming, he might have a chance...
Qin Yuming bit her red lips, shook her head painfully, and sighed softly: "No, I really don't want to live this kind of life. I even want to die."
Fang Zhicheng's heart was filled with heat. He held Qin Yuming's jade hand in his and said emotionally, "Don't do that. If you die, then... it's not worth it!" Fang Zhicheng's next words turned in his throat for a long time, but he didn't say them in the end. He actually wanted to say, "Then what should I do?"
Qin Yuming's heart was trembling. She had read Fang Zhicheng's "Secret Love Diary" and knew what Fang Zhicheng was thinking. Feeling the heat coming from his palm, she couldn't help but be alert. She said to herself, "No, I can't go on like this with him, otherwise, I will get burned!"
So, Qin Yuming hardened her heart, gently withdrew her hand, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and forced a smile: "Don't worry, Zhicheng. What I said just now was just my sister-in-law's angry words. I was just joking. It's getting late. You should go back. I'm fine."
