hello dear translator

Zhao Xiran had a terrible dream, dreaming that Zhao's mother was bitten by a tiger, her body was covered in blood, and she kept shouting, "Of course, save me, save me!"

Even Zhao Xiran, who had woken up, still felt that the dream was very real.

It seems that such a thing has really happened in this world, or it may happen in the near future.

Constantly worrying, panicking, and at a loss, Zhao Xiran couldn't help leaning against the head of the bed. She didn't calm down until she felt a burst of cold under her vest and the sweat dripped from her forehead like raindrops.

Muttered in his mouth: No!Won't!Nothing like that will ever happen!It was just a dream!Mother is good, she must be well in some unknown corner!
The eyes that were open were so sleepy, they slowly closed again, and as time passed, they gradually fell asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, the warm sunlight came in through the light curtains. Zhao Xiran was not quite used to it when he opened it, so he instinctively covered his forehead with the back of his hand, looked out the window with vacant eyes, and suddenly remembered Today is the day when she and Cheng Xiao get engaged.

I hurriedly reached out to get the alarm clock by the bed, it was 6:15, not too late.

He quickly got up from the bed and went to the bathroom with his slippers on.

She was brushing her teeth in front of the sink while thinking about her engagement.

The other party is the Cheng family, who is extremely wealthy, and all the engagement matters have been arranged.As small as the bride's makeup, clothing, and time to go out, as large as the guests' banquets, all parties thank you.All those things have nothing to do with her except that she needs to show her face when the time comes.

Thinking about it, a wry smile appeared on the corners of her lips: Why does it feel like she is just walking around, as for whether she is engaged or not, who she is engaged to, it doesn't seem to matter anymore.

I was busy until I went out, but I didn't receive a call from Cheng Xiao.

Zhao Xiran originally wanted to ask him if everything was ready, but then he thought that they would meet at the hotel soon, so why rush?

Just like that, Zhao Xiran walked down the road according to Cheng Wei's arrangement, finished his makeup, changed his clothes, and arrived at the engagement hotel by the limousine car at 11:30 in the morning.

Yao Lingling, who had been waiting at the Century Hotel earlier, saw the limousine approaching and hurried forward.

While lifting the floor-sweeping dress for Zhao Xiran, he leaned into her ear and whispered: "Of course, you are so beautiful today!"

Zhao Xiran smiled slightly, "It will be more beautiful when you get married in the future."

The two walked hand in hand, and Yao Lingling suddenly asked, "Of course, why didn't Cheng Xiao come with you?"

Logically speaking, Cheng Xiao should have gone to pick her up.

But before putting on makeup, he called him five times in a row, but the other party didn't answer.

After thinking for a while, "He must be busy!"

"What do you mean he's busy?" Yao Lingling was very dissatisfied with Cheng Xiao's behavior, "They are all people who want to get engaged, and they are still busy now? What can be more important than getting engaged?"

Zhao Xiran also wanted to know.

But now in Country W, in Cheng Wei's sphere of influence, everything is not as convenient as it was in City D before.What's more, this engagement between her and Cheng Xiao, from a certain point of view, is just to get Cheng Wei more capricious.Everything is based on interests, and it's normal for Cheng Xiao to not be as concerned as he imagined.

It's just that Yao Lingling, who was outside the incident, didn't know about it, and only felt that Cheng Xiao didn't treat Zhao Xiran as well as before.

"Of course, you really have to think again about this!" Yao Lingling suddenly stomped his feet and said seriously.

"What?" Zhao Xiran was stunned.

"It's about the engagement!" She said worriedly, "Because the ceremony hasn't been held yet, it's too late to regret it."

If it was just a simple engagement, she might really be able to do whatever she wanted.It's just that Cheng Wei personally organizes the engagement ceremony this time.

Even if something really went wrong between her and Cheng Xiao, for the sake of Cheng Wei's face and for herself to find her mother earlier, she must abandon her ego and become a big ego.

"Yaoyaoling, stop joking!" Zhao Xiran joked.

Seeing that Yao Lingling still had a sullen face, she removed the smile on her face and said seriously: "How can it be as easy as you said to cancel the engagement? This is related to Cheng's status in country W, and also related to Cheng Wei's face, and Cheng Xiao's weight in Cheng Wei's heart!"

"Complete this transactional engagement, but what can you get?"

Zhao Xiran didn't speak, but her expression told Yao Lingling that she didn't get much, or even nothing.

She didn't want to get engaged to Cheng Xiao at this time. Her mother was missing and hadn't been found yet. Now she was so worried, how could she be in the mood to get engaged?

"Yaoyaoling, this is the end of the matter, it's meaningless to say more!"

Taking the trailing dress from Yao Lingling, he twisted and walked forward.

Today's Century Hotel can be seen everywhere with bright red decorations, or auspicious rabbits, or a picture of a baby born early, or a happy family... Every scene contains a strong sense of joy.

Lifting up a dark veil, Zhao Xiran bent down and got in, found a comfortable place to sit down, and waited for the welcome to call.

For some reason, a lot of fine sweat overflowed from the clenched hands, and the originally peaceful heart became more and more tense as time passed.

There is a little fear in the anticipation, fear that I will never be able to live the way I want from now on, and fear that Cheng Wei will firmly control the rest of my life.

Inadvertently heard a deep male voice coming from outside, it sounded like Zhou Yi's.

Gently got up from the sofa, lifted the veil, and looked at the place where the sound came from.

Zhou Yi anxiously said to the man standing in front of him, "Look again!"

"Secretary Zhou, we've searched everywhere we could, but we still haven't seen the young master." The man looked embarrassed.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Yi asked again: "What about Ji Kong?"

"He's in the front hall, I'll ask now." The man wiped off his sweat and was about to leave when Zhao Xiran walked over slowly.

"Secretary Zhou, did something happen to Cheng Xiao?"

She heard the conversation between the two of them clearly just now, and she was also staring at Zhou Yi without blinking.

"Oh." Zhou Yi seemed to have thought about it, he hesitated a few times before saying, "It's just that I haven't found him for a while, so I'm a little anxious!"

She winked at the man at the side, that man was also here for business, seeing that he had nothing to do here, she took the opportunity to escape.

"Miss Zhao, please wait here patiently!" After speaking, he left in a hurry.

Looking at the disappearing figure from a distance, I couldn't help picking up the phone to make a call again, but it rang for a long time, but no one answered the phone.

I dialed a few times in a row, still the same.

Suddenly remembering what the man next to Zhou Yi said, he took the mobile phone and twisted the dress skirt and went to the front hall.

As soon as he reached the entrance of the hall, he was stopped by Yao Lingling who was waiting there.

"However, it's not time yet, why did you come out alone? Hurry up, go back!" Yao Lingling reached out to push her, and at this time Zhao Xiran had already seen Ji Kong standing in the corner on the right side of the hall.

He kept waving towards that direction, and called again and again, "Ji Kong, Ji Kong!"

Seeing everyone around him looking towards the back of the hall, Ji Kong followed suit.

Seeing this, his expression changed instantly, and he ran over in a hurry, "Miss Zhao, are you looking for me?"

Zhao Xiran asked directly: "Did you see Cheng Xiao? I've been looking for him all morning, and I called him, but he didn't answer! In less than half an hour, the engagement ceremony will begin!"

Her anxiety and panic all fell into Ji Kong's eyes.

He wanted to tell her the truth, but he was hindered by Cheng Xiao's instructions when he left.I had to pretend to be ignorant and shook my head, "I don't know where the boss is!"

"Aren't you his secretary?" Zhao Xiran was shocked.

"Yes!"

"Aren't you always by his side?"

"This..." Ji Kong frowned and said, "Not all of them."

"Where did he go, don't you know? How did you become someone's secretary?" Zhao Xiran became more and more annoyed as he spoke, the more Ji Kong listened, the less he knew how to answer, he just looked at her quietly.

"Of course, but..." Yao Lingling at the side saw the eyes of the people around him turn around, and stretched out his hand to pull Zhao Xiran over, "Keep your voice down, and pay attention to your identity."

Hearing this, his expression changed.

Also let her pay attention to her identity, what is her identity?Brides-to-be?
It's ridiculous, now that she can't even find a man who wants to get engaged to her, what kind of bride-to-be is she?

He couldn't help but think of the time when he was planning to marry Cheng Xiao in City D, and she also ran away on the eve of the wedding!

Later, the wedding was settled by Cheng Xiao alone.

In the past, she didn't know what Cheng Xiao was facing at that time, but today's Zhao Xiran really experienced it.

With red eyes, he asked: "Ji Kong, tell me honestly, Cheng Xiao didn't show up, was it planned in advance?"

Ji Kong was dumbfounded.

What the woman was thinking of, he didn't know.All he knew was that something big would happen next!
"He just took revenge on me, for not marrying him before!" As he said that, tears came down like rain.

Yao Lingling was also stunned by this sudden change.

He kept stretching out his hand to pull Zhao Xiran who was standing beside him, and tried to persuade him in a low voice, "Of course, Cheng Xiao is not as bad as you think! The future is so late now, maybe it was delayed by something."

"Yes, yes!" The onlookers also echoed.

"Hurry up and send the bride-to-be backstage to get her makeup done, and the ceremony will start in a while." A woman in a dress said among them.

Zhao Xiran immediately surrounded several young women wearing dresses of the same color.

She knew that these people were arranged by Cheng Wei, maybe, or Cheng Wei was watching her not far away at this time!
Subconsciously looking around, I saw a sandalwood crutch at the right corner of the third floor, which was for Cheng Wei's exclusive use, and the others were over there.

Zhao Xiran burst into tears with a 'wow'. The emcees who originally wanted to take her back to the dressing room were all frightened and stared at her dumbfounded.

Even Yao Lingling, who had always known Zhao Xiran the best, couldn't react to her sudden appearance!

On the other hand, Ji Kong, who was standing opposite, looked more and more serious looking at everything in front of him.

I secretly guessed in my heart: what exactly does this woman want to do?
A few seconds later, I suddenly heard the sound of heavy footsteps coming from the stairway. Looking back, I saw Cheng Wei walking down slowly on crutches, and my heart suddenly became clear.
