I knew it would be like this.
Yun Xiangxiang thought about it and could only say in a serious tone, “Ah Bi, my senior brother may look like someone from the entertainment industry, but he’s more straightforward. He’s already in his forties. I Don’t want his love life to have any more twists and turns.”
Zhao Guibi was silent for a moment before saying, “I’ll talk to him. What if he’s willing?”
“As long as you don’t threaten him, even if you tempt him, I won’t be able to decide for him even if he’s willing. As for the outcome, he can choose to bear it himself.”Yun Xiangxiang was decisive and straightforward.
“Alright, I Promise You That I won’t threaten him. I’ve just arranged to meet him. I’ll inform you after we’re done talking,”Zhao Guibi promised.
Yun Xiangxiang let out a sigh of relief. No matter what, Xue Yu was still her senior brother. Even if it was for her sake, Zhao Guibi wouldn’t go too far. However, she still had some concerns. “That Jiang Jingcheng’s character...”
? She didn’t want Xue Yu to suffer an undeserved disaster.
“Even though I don’t love him anymore, I still trust his character, so you don’t have to worry.”Otherwise, Zhao Guibi wouldn’t have done this, or else he would have implicated the innocent.
If ordinary people were implicated, then so be it. Zhao guibi still knew the relations.h.i.+p between Xue Yu and Yun Xiangxiang. What was so bad about implicating Xue Yu? She also didn’t have the face to face Yun Xiangxiang.
After Zhao Guibi and Yun Xiangxiang finished talking, they greeted their special a.s.sistant and went to their appointment.
The appointment was at a shop owned by Zhao Guibi’s high school cla.s.smate. The two of them had a good relations.h.i.+p and could be considered trustworthy.
Xue Yu had sneaked over after making sure that he had shaken off all the reporters following him.
He did not expect Zhao Guibi to throw out a few words as soon as he sat down. It scared him out of his wits.
“Let’s Get Married!”
Xue Yu:”...”
He stared blankly at the woman sitting across from him. She was wearing a small suit, her hair was straight, and her makeup was light and exquisite.
She was very beautiful. She was capable and had a powerful aura. This kind of beauty was easy for men to look up to, but it was not easy for men to get close to her.
“You... What did you just say?”Xue Yu came back to his senses and suspected that he was hearing things.
“I said, I’m responsible for you. Let’s get married,”Zhao Guibi repeated.
“Responsible?”Xue Yu was stunned again. “What did you do to me? Do you need to be responsible?”
Zhao guibi burst out laughing. Shouldn’t ordinary people care more that men were the ones who needed to be responsible?
“Didn’t the internet say that we were having an affair? You’re an actor. Reputation is more important.”
“I’m an actor, reputation is more important, but scandals can’t be counted. In a while, I’ll make a statement. From now on, the two of US should pay more attention to distance, and we’ll be fine.”Getting married for such a piece of news.., then, there would be no single actor.
He and Zhao guibi were innocent to begin with, not to mention that it was just speculation online. There were no negative effects.
“But I want to marry you,”Zhao Guibi continued.
Xue Yu was stunned again and asked hesitantly, “Why... Why?”
“Have you thought about the future?”Zhao Guibi asked instead of answering, “In terms of relations.h.i.+ps.”
“Let nature take its course.”Xue Yu was not discouraged by what had happened before, but he was not that desperate to leave his single life. Everything depended on what the heavens planned.
“What you need is not a gentle and careful wife. What you need is a wife who won’t drag you down, Won’t Stop You, and won’t suspect your partner. I can do all of these.”
Zhao Guibi listed out the details one by one, as if he was discussing a contract with someone at the conference table. “And I need a husband who won’t interfere with me, won’t Plot Against Me, and won’t betray me. I think we’re very suitable for each other.”
“No, I admit that it’s important for couples to be suitable, but there’s no foundation for a relations.h.i.+p. How awkward would it be to live under the same roof?”Xue Yu expressed his inability to accept it.
“Then let’s treat it as if we’re sharing a room.”Zhao Guibi didn’t care.
Xue Yu:”...”
“Why did you drag me into this?”Xue Yu had a headache.
“It’s not that I wanted to drag you into this. I told you to stay out of it, but you insisted on doing so. You delivered yourself to my door. I’m the female chairman of a public company, and I’m also a well-known figure on the rich list. You Can’t let me be accused of being a loose and unruly person, can you?”
Zhao guibi raised her eyebrows, so she had no way to replace him at the last minute.
Of course, the most important thing was that Zhao guibi would not tell Xue Yu that Xue Yu was a celebrity. Every move of a celebrity was watched, so Jiang Jingcheng would not dare to get involved easily. Otherwise, he would ruin his own reputation, she was in such a hurry to get married because it was justified. It was not suitable for her to confront Jiang Jingcheng right now.
Recently, Zhao Guiquan was getting restless again. After getting involved with Jiang Jingcheng for a long time, Zhao guiquan might collude with Jiang Jingcheng’s younger brother, Jiang Jinggeng. When that time came, the Zhao and Jiang families would really be entangled.
Zhao Guibi was even more worried that Jiang Jingcheng would add fuel to the fire and cause the two families to have no choice but to form an alliance through marriage.
When that time came, she would either hand over the Zhao Corporation in her hands or join forces with Jiang Jingcheng. She was not willing to do either.
After hearing Zhao Guibi’s words, Xue Yu slapped his forehead.
Xue Yu went back to the day before. After he finished filming, he was in a good mood to relive the delicacies he had discovered during the last filming.
In the end, he met Zhao Guibi and Jiang Jingcheng. Jiang Jingcheng pestered Zhao Guibi and refused to let him go.
“Guibi, we can start over.”Jiang Jingcheng’s cold voice hid his pleading.
“Director Jiang, do you see me as a spare tire or something that you can get rid of whenever you want?”Zhao Gui bi sneered, “You were the one who said we should break up. I respected your choice, so you fulfilled your mother’s last wish as a filial son. I never accused you of anything. Today, I want you to listen to me clearly. I’m not going back.”
“I know that I hurt you back then, but I hope that you can give me another chance and let me spend the rest of my life to make it up to you.”
“You don’t owe me anything, and you don’t need to make it up to me. We were together because you wanted me to be with you. No matter how it ends, adults have to bear the consequences for their own choices. You Didn’t force me to be with you.”Zhao Guibi’s eyes were cold.
“Then why aren’t you willing to give me a chance to pursue you again?”Even if it was just the right to pursue you again.
Zhao guibi chuckled. “Director Jiang, I don’t hate you or blame you. It doesn’t mean I don’t dislike you. When it comes to men, you don’t need to be unfaithful a hundred times over.”
Back then, Jiang Jingcheng could have abandoned her for his mother. In the future, he would definitely abandon her again for other reasons that couldn’t be both.
How shameless must she have been to hang herself on Jiang Jingcheng?
“I didn’t touch her,”Jiang Jingcheng said hurriedly. When he met Zhao Guibi’s half-mocking gaze, he looked a little embarra.s.sed and his voice was hoa.r.s.e, “At that time, I hoped that she could persuade my mother. I clearly told her that if she married me, she wouldn’t get anything. She still chose to insist on marrying me.”
