Chen Feifei's face was pale, and there was sweat on her forehead. She had always been in poor health. At this time, she had one hand on the wall and the other on her heart.
She gasped, looking at the two people in front of her, wishing for a moment that she could faint. But her body, which had always been weak, showed no signs of fainting.
She looked at Chen Yongchang and then at Zhan Haoze. His gaze was filled with accusation and accusation.
"You, you guys …"
"Feifei?" Chen Yongchang's expression changed. But only for a while. There were some things that his daughter would find out sooner or later.
"Dad." Chen Nan panted and walked step by step towards the two people sitting. "Is what Brother Hao said true?"
Even though Chen Yongchang was used to seeing great storms, he still felt a little guilty when he met his daughter's eyes.
He didn't say anything. Chen Feifei turned to Zhan Haoze for an answer. "Brother Hao, you wouldn't lie to me, would you? Tell me, is what you just said true? "
Her face was full of disbelief, but there was still the photo on Zhan Haoze's desk.
Chen Feifei snatched it over and looked at the person in the photo. Needless to say, there was no need to ask anymore.
He was a very young man who looked like he was still in university. He looked 50% similar to Chen Yongchang. It was just that he was younger and more flamboyant.
Chen Feifei felt an unbearable pain in her heart. She thought she would faint again, but she didn't.
She put her hands on the desk and stood firm. She stared at Zhan Haoze's face and stubbornly asked for an answer.
Zhan Haoze's gaze fell on the photo in her hand. He looked up at Chen Feifei. This person wasn't Shi Mengwan. She was weak and sensitive. She could not bear the impending unveiling of the True Wood Eye.
"Haven't you already seen the photos?"
Without saying anything more, Chen Feifei staggered and almost fell.
She looked at Chen Yongchang again. She suddenly threw the photo away and grabbed Chen Yongchang's shoulder.
"Dad. Why are you doing this? Didn't you say so? You said I was your little princess. You said I was your only daughter. Didn't you say so? You said that everything in the Chen family will be mine in the future. Why? Why? "
She asked several questions in a row, insisting on an answer.
Chen Yongchang was shaken by her, but he didn't look at her. After Chen Feifei finished shaking, she started to hit Chen Yongchang.
"How can you do this? How could you do this? Didn't you say that you loved my mother the most? Didn't you say that you would never marry again after she left? Then who was he? Why does he still exist? Dad, how can you face my mom like this? How could you let me down? Dad. How could you do this? "
Chen Feifei's health was not very good. She did not have much strength at all. As he fought and cried, he went limp.
This time, she really fainted.
Chen Yongchang's expression finally changed. He quickly picked up Chen Feifei. He just didn't know if it was because he was anxious or something else. When he got up, he loosened his grip and almost dropped Chen Feifei.
Zhan Haoze had been watching coldly from the sidelines. Seeing this, he finally made a move.
He stepped forward, picked up Chen Feifei, and walked out.
Chen Yongchang followed behind him. His voice was sharp and cold. "Zhan Haoze, you're too ruthless. You called Feifei here, right? You did it on purpose, didn't you? "
Zhan Haoze did not answer his question, but he did not deny it either. Chen Yongchang was furious. "Alright, alright, alright. You're ruthless. That was a beautiful move of yours. "
"Uncle, don't be angry." Zhan Haoze carried Chen Feifei into the elevator. Looking at Chen Yongchang, who was flustered and exasperated, the corners of his lips curled up into a cold smile. "According to your plan, it's only a matter of time. You had this plan for a long time. I was just helping you advance it. "
"You –"
Chen Yongchang was speechless. Of course, he did not want to reveal it now.
At the very least, he had to wait until they got married. At that time, Zhan Haoze would not ignore Chen Feifei.
"Don't think that you can get away with it. Let me tell you, Feifei is your responsibility. "
Zhan Haoze did not say anything. He carried Chen Feifei downstairs. The car was already waiting downstairs, just like before.
Chen Yongchang looked at the group of people and swallowed the words he wanted to curse. In the end, he got into the car with a toothache.
… …
After the rescue, Chen Feifei finally woke up.
After she woke up, she didn't want to see Chen Yongchang. She chased Chen Yongchang out, but let Zhan Haoze stay alone.
The ward was very quiet. Chen Feifei had already smelled enough of the disinfectant since she was young. She was also tired of smelling it. But because her body was not healthy enough, she had to do it from time to time.
She stared out of the window in a daze for a full ten minutes. She didn't speak, and Zhan Haoze didn't speak either.
The game had already begun. The engagement had to be broken. In fact, the existence of this engagement was not approved by him. Since it was a mistake, of course he had to correct it. He had patience now. Chen Feifei looked at the setting sun outside. She finally retracted her gaze and faced Zhan Haoze.
"When did you know?"
Zhan Haoze didn't expect her to ask this. He didn't intend to lie to her. "A long time ago."
"How long ago is a long time ago?"
"When you were eighteen."
At that time, Chen Yongchang had already started to let him enter the company and take over some matters. He knew that Chen Yongchang wanted to groom him as a son-in-law. But later, he subtly discovered some differences.
Especially after the Chen Corporation went through that danger, it was clearly caused by Chen Yongchang's distrust of him. Although he turned the tide later and reduced the losses, he also successfully let the Chen Corporation fight a beautiful turnaround.
But the seed of doubt was planted in his heart. If Chen Yongchang really wanted him to treat Chen Feifei well, or marry Chen Feifei in the future, and take care of the Chen Corporation well, he shouldn't have such an attitude.
Although he wanted to solve the Zhan family's matter at that time, he wasn't completely unprepared.
After investigating for a while, he found out the reason from many clues. After knowing it, it was much simpler.
On the surface, Chen Yongchang was indeed a good father and husband. But deep down, he had some traditions. He wanted his son to inherit the family business.
His kindness to Chen Feifei was real. But his kindness came with conditions. And all of this was seen through by Zhan Haoze.
So early? Chen Feifei's eyes widened. After understanding the key point, she didn't care about how Zhan Haoze found out. There was only one thought in her mind.
"Brother Hao. You really don't like me, do you? "If he liked her a little, he wouldn't treat her like this.
Zhan Haoze was silent. He thought for a moment and told the truth, "In my heart, you're my sister."
"Sister? Heh. " Chen Feifei smiled bitterly, her eyes full of mockery. "Yes, I'm your sister, so you don't have to feel sorry for me. You don't have to pity me. You asked me to your company and let me hear such a cruel truth. Brother Hao, you're so cruel. "
Zhan Haoze didn't deny it. Chen Feifei took a deep breath and calmed herself down. "Why did you do this? Just to break off the engagement with me? "
"Yes."
He knew Shi Mengwan's heart knot. If he wanted Chen Feifei to publicly break off the engagement in front of everyone in Lin City, he had to make Chen Feifei stand up. The current situation was that Shi Mengwan didn't believe his words.
But if Chen Feifei stood up, Shi Mengwan would believe it.
Chen Feifei's lips were pursed into a straight line. Her pale face and red eyes would make any man feel pity for her.
"Brother Hao, do you have a woman you like?"
Zhan Haoze pursed his lips slightly and didn't deny it.
Chen Feifei smiled. She seemed to have grown up in an instant and suddenly understood many things. "You have someone you like, so you don't like me. The person you like might have misunderstood our relationship, so you want me to explain, right? "
She looked at Zhan Haoze and knew that her guess was true. She smiled bitterly with a bitter expression. "A girl who can make you care about her like this must be very beautiful, right?"
"Yes." Zhan Haoze nodded. "In my heart, she's the most beautiful."
The generous praise made Chen Feifei's face turn even paler. She bit her lip and her fingertips trembled.
"What do you want me to do?"
"You'll announce the news of our breaking off the engagement. You can find any reason. I don't mind. "
In other words, Chen Feifei could be the reasonable one. She could make up any reason —
She looked up at Zhan Haoze. "Aren't you afraid that if I say you're bad, the girl you like won't like you?"
"No." Zhan Haoze's voice was very soft. He thought of Shi Mengwan. "No matter what I am, she will like me."
Chen Feifei clenched her fists tightly to control herself from crying. Zhan Haoze's gentle tone when he talked about that woman was something he had never used on her before.
"What if I don't agree?"
"You will agree." Zhan Haoze looked at her fixedly. "Because you're a smart girl."
Chen Feifei smiled. "Brother Hao, do you know? This is the first time you've praised me. But I'm not happy at all. "
Zhan Haoze was still silent. He did have sibling feelings for Chen Feifei. There was also gratitude. But that was all.
"Brother Hao. I will agree to you. But I also hope that you can agree to two conditions. " Chen Feifei's expression seemed to have changed. She was much calmer than before. "Don't worry, just two. And I won't make things difficult for you. "
"Go ahead."
Chen Feifei stared at her fingernails. In the shortest time possible, many thoughts had already flashed through her mind.
Everything that happened today was a huge blow to her. If possible, she really hoped that she was still the happy little princess of the Chen family.
But now, she knew that she couldn't be that carefree little princess anymore.
"First, I can't agree to break off the engagement with you immediately. Give me some time."
Zhan Haoze frowned. Chen Feifei looked at him. "Brother Hao, if I stand up right now and say that I'll break off the engagement with you. It will be very bad for the company. I need to use your name. "
"Three months." Three months was the limit of his patience.
"…" Chen Feifei looked at him deeply and finally nodded. "Okay, three months."
"The second thing is that I haven't completely mastered the company yet. I also know that I won't be able to master it very quickly in a short period of time. I hope that you can help me, Brother Hao. It doesn't matter if it's you or if you find someone. I don't want the company to fall into the hands of unrelated people. "
When Chen Feifei said that she didn't want to do it, a flash of gloominess flashed across her face.
It was true that the Chen Corporation belonged to Chen Yongchang, but without her mother's power and help, Chen Yongchang wouldn't have been able to develop the company to its current state.
The company belonged to Chen Yongchang, and it was also her mother's. She didn't want outsiders to get involved in any way.
But she couldn't do it alone. She needed help.
"Brother Hao, I know you can do it, right?"
Zhan Haoze looked at Chen Feifei. No matter what, they had grown up together. The change in Chen Feifei in front of him was unexpected, but it seemed to be reasonable.
After all, after such a major change, it would really be abnormal if the person in front of him was still the same as before.
"I can."
"Thank you, Brother Hao." Chen Feifei smiled at him gratefully. "There's one more thing –"
Chen Feifei seemed to realize that she had more than three conditions. Her expression was a little awkward, but Zhan Haoze didn't mind. "Go ahead."
Chen Feifei bit her lip. Her expression was conflicted, painful, hesitant, but in the end, it was firm.
"My father, he's getting old. I think he needs a good rest. Tell me, as his daughter, if I send him to a place with a good environment to spend the rest of his life, others won't be able to accuse me of being unfilial, right? "
When Zhan Haoze heard this, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Look, this was Chen Feifei. No matter how weak she looked on the outside, she was actually a person with a clear goal inside. He was not surprised or shocked that she had such a thought.
"Of course." Zhan Haoze nodded. "Feifei, you're so attentive. Others will only say that you're a good daughter and a very filial daughter."
Chen Feifei seemed to heave a sigh of relief. "Yes. I'm a good daughter. "
There was a hint of bitterness in her words, as well as something else. Zhan Haoze didn't care anymore.
He stood up. It was getting late, and he still wanted to go back and have dinner with Shi Mengwan. "You decide the location. After you decide, I'll be responsible for sending uncle to recuperate."
Chen Feifei nodded. The moment Zhan Haoze turned around, she called out to him again.
"Brother Hao?"
Zhan Haoze turned around. Chen Feifei gritted her teeth, as if she was going all out. "Since my father is going to retire, someone has to take care of him. Someone has to take care of him, and my cheap little brother should be the most suitable candidate. Right? "
She blinked her big eyes and looked at Zhan Haoze. At this moment, she didn't pretend at all.
Zhan Haoze smiled. This was a rare smile that he showed in front of Chen Feifei. "Of course. No one is more suitable than him."
Chen Feifei seemed to be relieved. She looked up at Zhan Haoze and reached out her hand to him.
"Brother Hao, can you hug me? Just treat it as your final farewell. "
Zhan Haoze looked at her and gently put his arm around her shoulder. Just as he was about to step back, Chen Feifei suddenly tightened her arms.
He felt her trembling. She buried her face in his chest. "Brother Hao, I'm really jealous of her."
After saying this, she let go of her hand and turned her face away. "Brother Hao, you should go quickly. Otherwise, I'll regret it. "
Zhan Haoze looked at Chen Feifei. He had watched her grow up.
"Feifei, take care of yourself in the future. I believe that the Chen family will definitely flourish in your hands. "
"Of course."
Chen Feifei didn't turn her head, but her eyes were much more determined than when she first woke up. In the past, she only wanted to be in love, but now she knew. What love? It's all fake.
If even someone close to you could betray you, what else was real? Only the benefits that were in his hands were real.
Zhan Haoze left the ward. As soon as he left, Chen Yongchang came over.
"What did Feifei say to you? How is she? "
Chen Yongchang looked in the direction of the ward. He wanted to get closer just now, but he was stopped by Zhan Haoze's bodyguard.
Zhan Haoze glanced at Chen Yongchang. Thinking of Chen Feifei's request just now, he felt a little sympathy for Chen Yongchang.
In some ways, Chen Feifei was the same kind of person as him. This was also the reason why he could never fall in love with Chen Feifei. Even though he had been with Chen Feifei for more than ten years.
"Uncle Chen, go and see Feifei. As for what I said to her, let her tell you herself. "
Zhan Haoze wasn't in the mood to stay any longer. This time, when he returned to Lin City, the matter in front of him was his first priority.
Now that it was resolved, his footsteps were a little lighter.
After getting into the car, the driver didn't need to ask. He drove directly to Shi Mengwan's apartment.
When he entered, he smelled the aroma of food in the room. That familiar smell and familiar environment made Zhan Haoze's expression relax for an instant.
He changed his shoes and went straight into the kitchen.
Shi Mengwan had already cooked a dish. Just as she took it out and placed it on the cooking table, she felt her waist being hugged.
She was shocked and the pot in her hand almost fell to the ground. Zhan Haoze reached out to help her hold it steady, then put it back on the stove.
She turned around and glared at him. "Don't you know how to make a sound when you walk? You scared me to death, don't you know? "
"Sorry." Zhan Haoze pecked her lips. "I scared you."
Shi Mengwan looked at him and felt that he seemed especially happy today. "Are you happy that you scared me?"
"No." Zhan Haoze couldn't help but peck her lips again. Shi Mengwan reached out and pressed against his chest when he wanted to deepen his kiss.
"That's enough. I still have to cook. Get out of the way. Don't disturb me. "
Zhan Haoze didn't let go. Instead, he glanced at the cooking table. "What else do you want to cook?"
"Stir-fried beef, and this, spicy and sour shredded potatoes."
Shi Mengwan glanced at him as she spoke. Her voice was very soft. "I only know how to cook some home-cooked dishes. If you don't like it, you can eat outside. "
Zhan Haoze glanced at her. It was rare to see her so cute. He reached out and rubbed the top of her hair.
"Go and rest. I'll do it. "
Shi Mengwan was stunned for a moment. She watched as Zhan Haoze took off his suit jacket, then unbuttoned the sleeves of his shirt and rolled them up twice.
"You, you know how to cook?"
Shi Mengwan's voice was a little trembling. That wasn't possible, right?
She had never seen him cook before, so she thought that he didn't know how to cook.
Now that he looked like he was about to make a move, he stood there a little nervously, obviously worried.
"You don't believe me?"
