I wish you eternal life

Chapter 123 The Promise I Keep

After a day of sleepless sleep, Yuan Ziyi woke up the next morning and was about to go to work. He didn't expect to see a familiar figure as soon as he opened the door.

Master Zou?

I really didn't expect that he ran to his home so early in the morning.And there was no one following behind, it seemed that he came here on purpose to find him.

Seeing this person, Yuan Ziyi couldn't help feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Even though the two families used to be family friends, since his father passed away, his attitude towards him has plummeted.

It can't be said that it started after his father passed away, maybe he had some opinions on himself a long time ago, but because of his father's face, he didn't express it directly.

After all, he is an elder and also Zou Yuxi's biological father, so Yuan Ziyi said politely, "Uncle Zou, hello."

"Please call me Master Zou."

Yuan Ziyi was taken aback immediately.Mr. Zou can be Mr. Zou, anyway, what does it matter?
Even Zou Yuxi once rejected him thousands of miles away like this, let alone him?

I remember that when he was a child, he never looked friendly when he looked at his expression. The reason why he always liked to go to their house was because Mrs. Zou really liked him from the bottom of his heart, and secondly, it was to pester Zou Yuxi better, so he was ashamed She shamelessly ignored his indifference.

This person has always been in the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and Yuan Ziyi already felt the feeling that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of the building.

She calmed down the uneasiness in her heart and said, "I don't know why Mr. Zou is looking for me? I have to come here in person."

"It's nothing, it's just that your father passed away for so long, and I didn't pay homage to him. So I came here to take a look."

Tribute?Shouldn't it be going to the cemetery?How did you come home?

As if he could see what was going on in Mo Yan's mind, Master Zou added, "Of course, I'm just here to see things and think about others, and to see his past."

Does he really have such good feelings for his father?
From the looks of it, it's just that the ulterior motives are not drinking.

Yuan Ziyi didn't say anything, but made a gesture of invitation for him to come in.

Master Zou's tall figure walked by, instantly blocking a lot of light.

Even though he is over half a hundred years old, the arrogance emanating from him is not inferior to that of Zou Yuxi in the slightest.

As expected of father and son!

After walking to the hall and looking around at the furnishings inside, he looked at the flowers on the windowsill.

"I remember that Phalaenopsis was your father's favorite when he was alive. I didn't expect you to still grow it now."

"Of course! What Dad likes is also what I like. As long as I'm still in this house, everything will be kept as it is!"

"Really? I can't tell that Miss Yuan is really a person who values ​​love and righteousness."

There must be something in his words!
Yuan Ziyi didn't know if he wanted to dig a trap for himself to jump into, so he didn't bother to talk.

Then Master Zou looked back from the balcony and fixed on her.

Yuan Ziyi took a cup of warm water from the side and put it on the table: "Master Zou, if you have anything to say, you may as well speak up. There is no one else here, so there is no need to beat around the bush."

A glint of appreciation flashed across Mr. Zou's eyes, "I haven't seen you for two years, but you are much more sensible than before, at least you won't be as willful as before. Okay! Then I'll just say it straight: I think you should Remember the promise we made between us five years ago."

five years!promise!
Speaking of those things, complex thoughts flooded Yuan Ziyi's mind instantly, and even pain flooded into his mind like a tide!

If it wasn't for this incident, how could Zou Yuxi and Zou Yuxi have come to where they are today?
Looking back now, how wrong it is!

But in that situation, what could be done?

Yuan Ziyi gritted his teeth, his eyes as dark as the tide showed persistence: "Of course I haven't forgotten, that's why I haven't told Zou Yuxi the truth so far."

"In this case, I hope you can continue to keep a distance from him, or even stay away from him."

"Stay away from him? What do you want me to do?"

"Of course I left this city, don't worry, I also know your family's current plight, so I won't let you leave empty-handed."

What does this mean?
Yuan Ziyi stared blankly at him, then saw him take out a check from his pocket.

"This is a check that can be cashed at any time, and the numbers on it can be filled in by you. I don't think any smarter person will be troubled by money, and this number is enough to cover you and your brother for the rest of your life. "

Looking at the green check, Yuan Ziyi's body trembled slightly.

What a familiar routine, a plot that can often be seen on TV and novels, but unexpectedly happened to me?
At this moment, she wanted to get the check desperately, and then take her brother away, but she couldn't lift her hands up.

It's not that she wants to pretend to be noble, or to prove how sincere her love for Zou Yuxi is, but that this city has carried too many stories, and she can't live without it!

Money is important, but there are many, many things in this world that are more important than money!
For example: love!

Yuan Ziyi slowly raised his head and smiled, "Thank you, Mr. Zou, for your kindness, but ever since I met Yuxi again, I have decided not to give up on him easily, even if it would cause my head to bleed just to be with him in the future." I'm willing to be bruised and bruised all over my body!"

Thinking that he has been in power for so many years, and he always listened to those humble words, but this girl has always contradicted him since she was a child.

Even if you don't contradict, it is impossible to follow your own will.

Although there was a burst of anger in his heart, Mr. Zou did not lose his temper because of it.

After all, I have already returned to China, and there are many ways to deal with her in the future!
There will be a day when she will retreat in the face of difficulties.

Taking a deep breath secretly, he said with flames dancing in his eyes: "Miss Yuan, please pay attention to your manner of speaking!"

What attitude should he pay attention to?

Talk to him grovelingly like his servants?
Yuan Ziyi smiled wryly, "Sorry, if you came to drive me out of this city, then there is no need. After all, my parents are here. Even if I die in the future, I will die in this city. But Master Zou, If you feel that the city where I live is dirty, then you can just leave and go to another place to continue your happy life."

"Bastard! You talk to me like this. Don't forget that you promised me that I would not be with Yu Xi. But now you are entangled with him again. What does that mean? Do you want to break your promise?"

Speaking of the original promise, Yuan Ziyi's heart ached slightly: "After all, I am not with him now, so don't worry too much. Of course! If I really regret being with him in the future, then please You should be mentally prepared. After all, family affection is the most important thing for me. Now Mengmeng needs me, I also need Mengmeng, we all need a complete family. In contrast, sticking to a meaningless promise, What counts?"

"Don't use Mengmeng as an excuse. She is my good granddaughter, so I will love her well. She doesn't need your love."

Yuan Ziyi gritted his teeth: "No matter how much it hurts, you will never be able to replace the role of mother."

Master Zou smiled instead of anger: "I can't replace you, but Qiaoying can."

"Really? If it's possible, then why Mengmeng's attitude towards her is still quite satisfactory after living in the United States for two years."

"Then you mean that Qiaoying is inferior to you?"

"It's not a question of being comparable, but that I am actually Mengmeng's biological mother. In this world, no one can surpass my love for her!"

Now Mr. Zou's face turned even paler, and his eyebrows seemed to be raised, but his knowledge and self-cultivation made it impossible for him to throw a tantrum no matter how angry he was.

So he took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I haven't seen you in two years, Miss Yuan is really getting sharper and sharper. It seems that you are determined to disturb Yuxi and Qiaoying."

"The two of them are not a couple in the first place, so why do you insist on making them together? Besides, Yuxi is not a three-year-old child. Do you have to decide the major matters of his life? Parents order The matter of the matchmaker’s appointment only stays in ancient times, and now it’s the 21st century. It’s fine if you are not open-minded, and you still want to let him be a successor, helping others raise a half-breed child of unknown origin.”

"Bastard!" Master Zou couldn't help but roared angrily this time: "It's not up to you, an outsider, to intervene in our Zou family's affairs."

outsider?

yes!In his eyes, he is an outsider after all.

Zhong Qiaoying gave birth to a wild species and was also the best candidate for the Zou family's wife, but she gave birth to Zou Yuxi's biological daughter, but she can only be an outsider!
Does he really like Zhong Qiaoying so much?

Since he likes it, why not marry Mrs. Zou after divorcing her? Why do you have to force Zou Yuxi to be with her? Could it be because of Zhong Qiaoying's family background?
Even if it is not surprising, for businessmen, marriage is just a child's play, how can the charm of money be important?
Yuan Ziyi felt sad for Zou Yuxi even thinking about it.

Although he sometimes looks like a runaway wild horse, but in the end he is still under the palm of the Tathagata Buddha, and not everything can be controlled freely.

Maybe this is the world of the rich, and I can just be an ordinary person and forget it.

So she smiled lightly and said: "Since I am an outsider in Master Zou's eyes, please leave my house too. After all, an outsider like me cannot afford to welcome such a noble guest like you!"

Now Master Zou is so angry that his teeth itch!
At this age, is this the first time someone has ignored herself so much, she meant to throw herself out?

really interesting!
Although this woman has calmed down a lot after two years of polishing, there is still that arrogance hidden in her bones.

It seems that he still has to work hard.

But freezing to three feet does not happen in a day, and it will take some time for her to completely surrender to herself.

Finally, she took a deep breath and said: "Okay, very good! It seems that the daughter of the Yuan family has grown up and her wings are hardened. No wonder she speaks so hard. But I still remind you: no matter how close you are to Yuxi, I will never let you step into the Zou family's door. Also, don't forget our original promise, otherwise, I will make you regret it, and you can't bear the responsibility behind it."

After speaking, he was carried on his hands and strode outside.

Looking at his back, Yuan Ziyi fell into deep thought.

One Zhong Qiaoying is enough to give him a headache, now that there is another Master Zou, how can he survive in the future?

The most important thing is: Can I still stick to that promise at the beginning?Is it still necessary to stick to it?
Just thinking about what Master Zou said just now, she knew that she had no other choice.This man, if he hadn't been cruel and merciless back then, how could he and Zou Yuxi have come to where they are today.

When she thought of the past, her heart ached faintly.

Alas, I can't control that much anymore, let's go and see my brother first.

Now his condition has almost recovered, and the doctor said that he will be discharged from the hospital in a short time.

-

After adjusting his mentality, Yuan Ziyi hurried to the hospital!

At this moment, Zichen could get out of bed and move freely, and he just came in from a walk in the park outside.

Today's mental state looks very good. When he saw Yuan Ziyi, he said excitedly: "Sister, why are you here? Don't you have to go to work today?"

"I took a break with my colleague today, and I came here to see how you are recovering now?"

"The doctor said it's fine, and I can leave the hospital tomorrow. Elder sister, is the room at home ready? I haven't been home for a long time, and now I'm so excited that I can't sleep at night when I think I can go home. "

Seeing his thin sunken eyes shining with excitement, Yuan Ziyi's heart was both comforted and distressed.

God was really unfair to him.

Zichen Mingming was so cute and responsible since he was a child, and even full of love, why did life make him suffer so much?

I remember when I was in school when I was a child, he saw a poor beggar walking towards him tremblingly holding a bowl: "Can you lend me a dollar, I haven't eaten for two days, I will eat at this time tomorrow." Give your money back."

Seeing how pitiful the beggar was, without thinking about it, he took out the money he had used to buy breakfast from his pocket and put it in the bowl.

But that day he himself was so hungry that he passed out in exercise class,
The classmates laughed at him for being cheated, and it is absolutely impossible for the beggar to return the money to him.

He doesn't believe it.So on the second day at the same time and at the same place, I waited for the beggar to appear.

Not to ask him to pay back the money, but to prove that the beggar did not cheat him, and he was not cheated.

However, the first day passed, and the beggar did not appear.

Day 2 passed and the beggar did not show up either.

Day 3, Day 4, Day 5...

In the end he finally had to accept this reality. Of course, the sad thing was not that he was cheated out of the breakfast money!But why is the trust between people so fragile?
Everyone thought that after this incident, he would learn a lesson and would no longer be easily overwhelmed with sympathy.

As a result, a month later, he met the beggar again.

The beggar was even thinner than before. He told his brother the reason why he didn't show up before: it was because of his long-term malnutrition, and he lay in the ruins for several days and nights.

I thought it was impossible to survive this time, but it turned out that God favored me.He slowly came back to life by scavenging for food in the trash.

But this time, he was not looking for his younger brother to pay back the money, but just told him: He always remembered what he owed his younger brother, and he would pay it back when he got the money in the future.

This time the younger brother also believed and was deeply moved, so he gave the beggar all the pocket money he had saved for a month.

But since then, the beggar has never appeared again.

Yuan Ziyi once asked him: "Do you regret it?"

He looked up at the stars in the sky and said with a smile: "Don't regret it. If he really lied to me, it means he is still alive. If he didn't miss the appointment because he lied to me, it means he may have passed away. This is not what I want. the result of."

Yuan Ziyi sighed slightly.

How could there be such a kind brother in the world?
Shouldn't all good people live long lives?
Why is he so ill-fated.
