From that day on, Xu Kuangjie felt sad and happy.
The happy thing is that he is finally a normal man, but the sad thing is that the 30 million yuan was just gone, and the money was spent like water.
Ding Baoyi took 30 million and returned the 30 million to Xu Kuangjie.
Xu Kuangjie was puzzled.
Ding Baoyi's voice was calm: "Give this money back to your mother for me. Just pretend that I have never traded with her. After all, you gave me more than she gave me."
"Oh, if you marry me, I will give you even more."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, they were both stunned.
Ding Baoyi knew better than anyone that it was impossible for her to marry Xu Kuangjie.
Xu Kuangjie also knew that at this critical moment, it was impossible for him to marry Ding Baoyi.
Putting aside whether Ding Baoyi is willing to marry or not, he just can't get over the hurdle of his parents.
He is not as arrogant as Jiang Beiyuan. He can give up his family and property for a woman, start his own business or be self-reliant. Xu Kuangjie cannot do this. He has not been a rebellious person since he was a child.
"Just pretend that I didn't say anything." Xu Kuangjie cleared his throat and stopped the loss in time.
"It's okay, I didn't take it seriously."
Ding Baoyi spoke slowly and calmly.
She really doesn't care.
She really doesn't care at all...
…
The next day, Ding Baoyi received a call from her ex-boyfriend.
To be precise, it was her first love boyfriend at the last AK conference.
The other party's name was Ling Zhihao, Ding Baoyi's senior in middle school, and he was five years older than Ding Baoyi.
Ling Zhihao asked Ding Baoyi to have dinner at a Western restaurant. As soon as he entered, he took her hand and sat down, saying affectionately that he missed her so much.
Ding Baoyi pulled her hand back expressionlessly.
"We have broken up and you are married."
"Baoyi, my life is not happy at all..."
Ling Zhihao sighed.
"In the past few years, I have often wondered, if we had not separated back then, would we have been together now, would we have lived happily? You are a good girl, and I did not betray you back then. It's not that we don't love each other. It’s because our parents don’t agree with our love.”
"Um."
Ding Baoyi's eyes were dull.
"That opportunity has been missed, it will never come again, and I no longer love you."
"I don't believe you have any feelings for me anymore."
Ling Zhihao looked at her.
"I know all about your situation in the past few years. You have been hurt and betrayed. You haven't met a good man, have you?"
"That's none of your business."
"No, I know you still can't forget me,"
Ling Zhihao vowed that Ding Baoyi was still thinking of him and held Ding Baoyi's hand again.
"Otherwise, why did you still greet me at the press conference a while ago? You sent me to the hotel when I was drunk. You obviously care about me."
"It's just politeness between friends, and I didn't know you were married at the time!"
Ding Baoyi shouted and was about to brush Ling Zhihao away again when her cell phone suddenly rang.
She came to her senses, stood up, and walked to the door of the restaurant to answer the phone.
The voice on the other end was familiar and deep: "Turn around."
Ding Baoyi turned her head slightly and saw the black Maybach not far away.
Smooth body, familiar license plate number.
Xu Kuangjie: "Come out, I'll wait for you."
"Oh, I see."
She hung up the phone and looked at the frowning Ling Zhihao, her heart no longer disturbed.
The original relationship gradually faded over time. If Ling Zhihao was single now, there might still be a slight possibility for the two of them to develop. It can only be said that fate plays a trick on people.
"Don't contact me again, and don't call me again. Firstly, I won't have sex with you secretly. Secondly, even if you get divorced, it won't be possible for you and me. Let's all be well, right." It’s good for each other.”
After saying that, he left without any regrets.
Ding Baoyi got into Xu Kuangjie's car.
The sunshine outside was dazzling, blurring the outline of Xu Kuangjie, making it difficult for her to see clearly the expression on his face at this moment.
After thinking about it, she decided to explain: "Between me and that man, we-"
"Don't make me look down on you."
Xu Kuangjie's big hands holding the steering wheel tightened, and every word fell apart.
"He's already married, isn't he? It's better for a woman to keep her face. Don't do things that destroy other people's families. Then everyone will look down on you!"
“…”
His cold and sarcastic words were like a sharp knife cutting into her heart.
Her heart began to bleed, but he couldn't see it because her face was calm to the point of no emotion: "Whatever you think."
Who doesn’t know how to say harsh words
It doesn't matter even if it hurts.
“…”
Ding Baoyi didn't want to argue with him. She was very tired and her heart was numb from pain. When she opened the car door and was about to get out of the car, Xu Kuangjie grabbed her arm.
"Your illness is cured now. I cured it. If it were another man, he wouldn't be so patient with you!"
"Then do I still have to thank you? Kowtow three times to you?!"
"No need, I volunteer."
Xu Kuangjie came over and wanted to kiss her lips. There was a crisp sound and she slapped him on the face.
"roll!"
With one word of hysteria, Ding Baoyi slammed the car door.
Xu Kuangjie wiped the corner of his mouth with his thumb. There were mottled blood stains on it. Damn it.
After parking the car, he also got out of the car. Seeing that Ding Baoyi had already hailed a taxi on the side of the road, he strode over and took her arm.
"Can you please stop making trouble?"
"Let go!"
"Don't see your ex-boyfriend anymore!"
"I didn't plan to see him again. Besides, you have no right to control me."
not qualified
Is she saying he's not qualified
"Ding Baoyi, am I your boyfriend?"
"Before, I never said we would get back together."
The fire in Xu Kuangjie's heart was ignited, "So what do you want?! What do you want me to do?!"
Pedestrians passing by looked this way and whispered.
Only then did Xu Kuangjie realize that he and Ding Baoyi had become circus monkeys, letting everyone watch, and he exhaled irritably.
"Let's get back to the car first and talk slowly, okay?"
“…”
Ding Baoyi also realized that she had become the target of public criticism.
Like Xu Kuangjie, she is a face-conscious person. Ding Baoyi can't do anything like acting in the street.
Back in the car, Ding Baoyi took out the cigarette case from her bag and lit a cigarette.
Blue-white gossamer wrapped around her.
She hadn't smoked for a long time, and she wasn't a heavy smoker.
Xu Kuangjie snatched her cigarette and put it out.
"When will you get rid of your smoking habit? Now go check your lungs and see how terrible they are."
Ding Baoyi didn't speak. The word "hospital" flashed in her mind. Suddenly she thought of something, and her expression suddenly became solemn.
Startled by her sudden seriousness, Xu Kuangjie frowned, "What's wrong with you?"
*
There are not many people in the pharmacy now.
Ding Baoyi took a box of Yu Ting and wanted to pay. The waiter looked at Xu Kuangjie standing at the door, then looked at Ding Baoyi, and said the price of Yu Ting with a fake smile.
The moment Ding Baoyi took out her wallet to pay, Xu Kuangjie suddenly came over, held her hand, and then looked at the waiter: "Sorry, we don't want this medicine anymore."
After saying that, he pulled Ding Baoyi out of the pharmacy.
He was very strong and seemed to be angry. He didn't know why he was angry. He walked to a deserted roadside and then let go of her.
"Stop taking birth control pills!"
The roar was incomprehensible, and Ding Baoyi sneered, "If you don't eat, do you want me to be pregnant with your child?"
“…”
"I can't be a single mother, and I don't have the heart to raise a child. You can't be too selfish!"
"Leave it to fate!"
Xu Kuangjie sighed.
"If I'm pregnant, I will marry you. I won't let the child be a shady. If I'm not pregnant, isn't it in line with your wishes?"
"Why should I listen to you?!"
Ding Baoyi looked at him as if he was mentally retarded, and then went to the drugstore again.
Xu Kuangjie was so angry that he thought, forget it, she can eat it if she wants to. He, as a man, knows that this stuff is not good for the body. She doesn't know it herself, but what can he do if she is stubborn
Xu Kuangjie drove away holding his breath.
When Ding Baoyi came out of the drugstore, Xu Kuangjie was nowhere to be seen.
She pinched the pills in her hand.
thought long time.
It took so long that her fingers became cold, and her heart went from numb to a little strange.
I couldn't tell whether that strange feeling was the courage born from breaking through the mountains, or something else.
Finally, she walked to the trash can and threw the pills away...
…
Ten days have passed.
Xu Kuangjie lost 100 million.
Ten million once, one hundred million ten times, who can bear this
Wu Ting asked Ding Baoyi to meet at the original coffee shop.
Tit for tat.
"I said why don't you care about the 30 million I gave you? It turns out that my son gave you 100 million!" Wu Ting was angry.
Although 100 million is not much to the Xu family, it is still painful.
The wealth does not flow to outsiders, and no one wants their money to be given to unrelated people.
Ding Baoyi smiled instead of getting angry: "Auntie, he won't be happy if you check your son's account privately."
Wu Ting's eyes flashed upon hearing this.
"You are a woman who is not only smart, but also shrewd."
"Thank you for the compliment. Your son and I are both adults. We are consensual to each other, and we did not steal it. This 100 million yuan was given to me voluntarily by your son."
"What do you want?!" Wu Ting gritted her teeth.
"I don't think about anything, just take it one step at a time."
"Ha, I think you are deliberately relying on our Xu family, and you don't even care how much you weigh!"
Wu Ting paused as she spoke.
"Kang Jie will be engaged to a famous lady from the Zheng family this weekend. Then you will have no reason to stay with him!"
Ding Baoyi said nothing.
She frowned slightly, stirring the coffee in her hand, wondering what she was thinking.
After a while, he smiled softly and said, "If he agrees, it doesn't matter to me, I don't care."
Wu Ting felt unreasonable and left angrily.
This woman is too cold and doesn't love Xu Kuangjie at all.
Even if they get married, they will definitely not be content with the status quo. They are just coveting their Xu family's money.
Thinking like this, Wu Ting became even more dissatisfied with Ding Baoyi.
Compared with the cold fox like Ding Baoyi, Wu Ting prefers the innocent little white rabbit like Zheng Qiaoqiao.
…
In the evening, Wu Ting went to Xu Kuangjie's house and told him about the engagement straight to the point.
Xu Kuangjie was completely speechless, "Mom, I have no feelings for Zheng Qiaoqiao!"
"Son, don't tell me that you want to marry that person named Ding Baoyi. You gave her 100 million, right?"
"Mom - can you please stop checking my account all the time? Do I still have some human rights?"
"I'll check what's wrong. That's our Xu family's money. Don't let it go to outsiders!" Wu Ting said every word.
"If I marry her, she will no longer be an outsider."
"I disagree!"
Wu Ting directly refuted Xu Kuangjie.
She was very dissatisfied with and didn't like Ding Baoyi. She couldn't let a woman she didn't like become her daughter-in-law.
Xu Kuangjie disagreed: "When I marry a wife, of course I marry the one I like, otherwise the marriage will not last long."
"Silly boy, relationships are cultivated slowly. What a good girl you are. She is clean and pure. As time goes by, you will definitely like her!"
"Mom, you don't understand. I can only treat Ding Baoyi. You can see for yourself—"
Xu Kuangjie found his examination report in the hospital and showed it to Wu Ting.
Wu Ting looked at the report and was speechless.
"This... when did this happen?"
"It's been several years. I thought I was disabled until I met Ding Baoyi. If you still want to have a grandson in the future, just agree to let us be together. Otherwise, if another woman gets pregnant in the future, 99% of it will not be mine." .”
"you-"
Wu Ting was speechless.
Is this why my son likes that girl
Xu Kuangjie: "Ding Baoyi is my girlfriend now, and she might be pregnant with my child."
"This this… "
Wu Ting's mind was confused.
On the one hand, it is his son.
On the one hand, there is his grandson.
Both ends are important.
Now Xu Kuangjie is thirty-six years old. Jiangbeiyuan's family of the same age has three children, but Xu Kuangjie still has none. It would be false to say that he is not in a hurry, but the child also depends on who gives birth to it, right
Xu Kuangjie thought that if he said this, Wu Ting would stop caring about his personal affairs. He was wrong.
Wu Ting went to Jiangbeiyuan's house early the next morning to find Jiangbeiyuan.
Yan Nian sent his three children to school, and Jiang Beiyuan was the only one at home.
Seeing Jiangbeiyuan, Wu Ting burst into tears and asked Jiangbeiyuan to save Xu Kuangjie.
"Beiyuan... You and Kuang Jie grew up together. Now his soul has been taken away by that vixen. He can't listen to what I say. You should talk to him and let him marry a well-matched man. , there will be less conflicts after getting married like this!"
"Auntie, it's important to be a good match, but it's no use if he doesn't like it himself. It's up to him to decide on the marriage." Jiang Beiyuan said with a breeze in his sleeves.
When Wu Ting saw Jiang Beiyuan not helping her, she became anxious and tried to kneel down to Jiang Beiyuan.
Reluctantly, Jiang Beiyuan could only agree temporarily, "Okay, I'll persuade him."
"You must persuade him to come back! Beiyuan, you are smarter than Kuang Jie and have more ideas. You can find a way to let Kuang Jie see the true face of that vixen clearly, so that he will not like her!"
Wu Ting's meaning is very obscure.
He wanted Jiang Beiyuan to be a villain and make him stand between Xu Kuangjie and Ding Baoyi.
Jiang Beiyuan frowned quietly and nodded lightly, "Try your best."
Only then did Wu Ting feel satisfied.
Then Jiang Beiyuan called Xu Kuangjie to his company in the afternoon.
Jiang Beiyuan briefly talked to Xu Kuangjie about Wu Ting's visit to him.
Xu Kuangjie was angry and felt that his mother was embarrassed, "Don't take my mother's words seriously!"
He is no longer a child, he is already in his thirties and has his own opinions.
"Do you want to get married?" Jiang Beiyuan asked.
Xu Kuangjie raised his eyebrows, "Who are you referring to?"
"I miss my best friend."
"...Hmm, I think so."
Jiang Beiyuan's face was calm, as expected: "Then marry."
"But my mother can't do this. My household registration and everything are kept by my mother. She doesn't agree, so I can't get married at all."
"Find a way to get her to agree temporarily, but she can't do anything."
"What do you mean? Do you have a way?"
Xu Kuangjie's eyes were full of expectation, looking at his brother he had loved since childhood with admiration.
Jiangbeiyuan raised his fingers and said, "Reward."
The true nature of a businessman is revealed.
Xu Kuangjie gave him a roll of his eyes and said, "Stop plundering me. Money is tight lately. I really don't have any money!"
"Well, then you can go if you want."
"Okay, you can do it like this. I helped you a lot when you were chasing your wife. Anyway, I'm not having a good time, and you can't even think about it. Then let Ding Baoyi harass Yan Nian every day. Yan Nian will definitely regard her as a sister. Da, just step aside!"
The words just fell.
The latter raised his lips slightly, rubbed his chin, and narrowed his dark eyes slightly.
"You threaten me?"
Jiangbeiyuan smiled very gently.
Very, very innocent.
But it's so creepy.
Xu Kuangjie was stunned instantly:
"I was wrong... Master Jiang."
…
"Brother Kuang Jie and I are getting married!"
Three days later, Zheng Qiaoqiao threw a red invitation directly in front of Ding Baoyi.
The cover design is exquisite and perfect, with blue roses inlaid on both sides and two red hearts in the middle.
Ding Baoyi was sitting in the office, glanced at it and then looked away, turning the pen with her palm facing down.
"Is this invitation for me?"
Her voice was calm, pretending to be calm so that her tone sounded casual.
"Yes," Zheng Qiaoqiao folded her arms and snorted, "Brother Kuang Jie and I have unanimously decided to invite you to our wedding next Monday!"
"Do you want some money?"
"What?"
"If it's just money, I won't go." Ding Baoyi said lazily.
"Haha, I heard that brother Kuang Jie gave you 100 million for no reason. He gave you so much money, but you are still so stingy! But it doesn't matter, he is going to marry me anyway. Then you can bring nothing with you. That’s good.”
"oh."
Ding Baoyi put the invitation away and put it in the drawer.
"It's a free meal. If you don't take it, it's free. I'll go."
"It turns out that you are such a virtuous person. You are greedy for money and stingy. You are not worthy of my brother Kuang Jie at all!"
Zheng Qiaoqiao shook her hair, turned and left proudly.
As soon as she left, the smile on Ding Baoyi's mouth gradually solidified, becoming as stiff as ice.
After a while the office door opened again.
The person coming is Ling Zhihao.
"Baoyi, why don't you answer my call?"
Facing this man, Ding Baoyi rubbed her forehead with a look of disgust on her face, "I have blocked your number and contact information. Please don't contact me again."
"Baoyi..."
"Don't call me that. Didn't I make it clear enough last time? We can't go back. We can just live our own lives!"
"You can still go back if you want."
Ling Zhihao refused to admit defeat and looked at her affectionately.
"I thought about it all night last night. I am willing to divorce for you. Are you willing to stay with me?"
"Oh, you should divorce your wife. Keeping a scumbag like you is also harmful to people. Fortunately, I thought you were good before, but now it seems that you are nothing more than that. But don't talk about you in a high-sounding way. I can't If you don’t like the second-married man, go away and stay away from me!”
Ding Baoyi's temples began to beat, and she looked away in disgust.
Now she only has disgust for Ling Zhihao. How could such a person be her first love? She must have been blind at the beginning.
"Baoyi—"
"She told you to get out, but you couldn't hear her?!"
The voice behind him sounded like Satan, full of anger.
Xu Kuangjie grabbed Ling Zhihao by his collar and carried Ling Zhihao out directly.
He was 185cm tall, while Ling Zhihao was only 17cm tall. He carried him out of the door, and Xu Kuangjie closed the door of Ding Baoyi's office.
Condescending.
"Zi Zi, while your grandpa still has some patience, you can get out of here and get out of here!"
Ling Zhihao couldn't stand being called Zizi.
"...Mr. Xu, I'm just looking for someone."
"Bullshit. The person you are looking for is mine. She is going to marry me. If you dare to have any ideas about her in the future, I will make you crawl around in Ningcheng without food!"
"Marriage? Real or fake?" Ling Zhihao was dubious.
Xu Kuangjie took out the invitation.
The cover is facing Ling Zhihao.
No need to open it, Ling Zhihao wilts...
"This is impossible. Baoyi is a non-marriage person. How did you persuade her to get married?"
Xu Kuangjie replied with four words condescendingly:
"Because of love."
Ling Zhihao: "..."
…
Ding Baoyi asked Yan Nian to go shopping on the weekend.
The two of them walked around for an hour, and after not walking very far, Ding Baoyi complained that she was tired and stopped shopping.
"My back hurts. Let's find a place to eat."
"What's wrong with your waist?"
"...It's okay, don't ask."
"You and Xu Kuangjie, how are you two?"
At the mention of this person's name, Ding Baoyi's eyebrows darkened.
"He's getting married."
"Ah? Xu Kuangjie? Who are you following?"
Yan Nian was completely confused, why was it so sudden
"With a well-matched socialite."
"Then who are you?"
"Nvji."
"You are stupid, aren't you!"
Yan Nian got angry and swung Ding Baoyi's mallet.
"Who told you to say that about yourself?!"
“…”
Ding Baoyi gave a bitter laugh and said nothing more. The two of them went to a restaurant to eat.
Yan Nian ordered roast duck and braised pork elbow. Ding Baoyi thought it was too greasy, so she covered her mouth and waved her hand, asking Yan Nian to put these things away.
Especially the roast duck, she almost vomited from the smell.
Other vegetarian dishes were quickly served. Ding Baoyi got up and said she had to go to the bathroom.
I went there for a long time and didn't come out.
Yan Nian was a little worried that he might have fallen into a trap. He went to the women's toilet to look for it and saw Ding Baoyi leaning on the wall and bending over.
She is crying.
The kind that makes no noise.
She pursed her lips and tears fell from her eyes, one after another, falling accurately into the trash can.
She dislikes the fact that her tears are dirty.
Yan Nian felt extremely uncomfortable and stepped forward to hug Ding Baoyi.
"Can you please stop doing this? Just tell me if you feel uncomfortable!"
Ding Baoyi came back to her senses, sniffed, and smiled at her, "The onions just stung my eyes. It hurts too much."
"Fart! Where did we order the onions?"
"Can't I just take it with me?"
"Don't be blind to me."
Yan Nian sighed.
"You like him very much, right?!"
He knew who he was.
Ding Baoyi said nothing.
Yan Nian let go of Ding Baoyi a little, patted her shoulder, and frowned, "Don't hide it in front of me. We have been sisters for so many years, how can I still not understand you? You like him, so he You are so sad because you are going to marry someone else."
“…”
Ding Baoyi lay on Yan Nian's shoulder, covering her eyes with one hand.
"To be precise, I fell in love with him!"
Love so much that my heart aches.
It made her heartache more than any other man before.
He scolded her, but she had to endure it.
He ridiculed her, but she still endured it.
The relatives and friends around him all disliked her, but she still had to endure it.
She wants to show that she only cares about money.
She was disgusted by this look.
But it's better to play the role of a money-worshiping girl than to lose all your dignity and pride in front of him.
Seeing Ding Baoyi in such pain, Yan Nian's eyes turned red.
"Just tell him you love him, so he won't marry someone else!"
"He wants to marry someone else. It's useless for me to say anything. That's his own business. Besides, the relationship between me and him is not equal. His arrogant mother will not agree to us being together. ... Forget it, don’t mention him anymore.”
Ding Baoyi walked to the sink and washed her face.
She bent over and lowered her head, splashing water on her face. Before she could touch up her makeup, she suddenly began to retching.
Retching without any warning.
Her stomach felt extremely uncomfortable, and it was obvious that she hadn't eaten anything yet.
Reminds me of my disgust at roast duck just now...
Ding Baoyi's mind was spinning very fast, and she suddenly thought of something, and her face turned pale in an instant...
