Rich Contract: Kiss Goodbye, Paranoid

Xia Hong turned his head and looked at An Xueying with an unconcealable smile in his eyes: "Well, it's good that you have this confidence, and I also believe that the person I fancy will never let me down."

They didn't study it beforehand, An Xueying could say the same things when she should speak, which was quite in Xia Hong's mind.

At this time, Guo Wei, who had finished bathing and changing clothes, had already gone downstairs. She went to the kitchen to take a look, and returned to the living room to ask the guests to have dinner.

Xia Hong never liked to chat with people at the dinner table. Although these guests were guests, they all grew up with Xia Hong, so they naturally understood Xia Hong's habits. Even if they were guests, they had to abide by the Xia family's rules.Otherwise, just wait to be deflated.

Tonight's "war" can finally come to an end, An Xueying thought in her heart.She was very tired, but she couldn't fall down easily. To fall was to lose without fighting. Under such circumstances, she did not allow herself to be so cowardly.

Especially, in front of rivals in love.

Although she has no love experience at all, her heart tells her that she must not act cowardly and incompetent in front of Xi Meiying.

It was also rare for Xia Mochen to share dinner with everyone downstairs, but fortunately the dinner was spent in peace and quiet, no matter what everyone felt in their hearts, at least the superficial tranquility allowed everyone to have a good dinner.

After dinner, the guests didn't intend to stay overnight, so they didn't stay any longer and left soon.Before leaving, Xi Meiying reluctantly left a word to Xia Mochen:

"Brother Mochen, you know what day next Wednesday is, you must come, I'll wait for you."

An Xueying pushed Xia Mochen upstairs, but he didn't need her help at all, and she just followed behind him.When she reached the third floor, Xia Mochen had already reached the door of the room.An Xueying walked a few steps quickly, and rushed to Xia Mochen's door before it closed, and raised her hand to block the door.

Fortunately, Xia Mochen didn't force her to shut the door: "What's the matter?"

"Can't I go in first?"

Xia Mochen seemed to be too lazy to waste his tongue, so he gave way.

"What do you want to say, please hurry up, I don't have much time to waste with you."

"Staying with me is a waste of time?"

An Xueying's words pointed to the afternoon he spent with the "guests" today, Xia Mochen frowned, but did not rush to speak.

"How and how long you want to get along with your friends has nothing to do with me, but can't you spare a few minutes for me? Do you have to be so stingy?"

"...The time for your nonsense, I'm afraid the matter has already been finished, Miss Xuesui, can I ask you to reduce some nonsense?"

He wasn't angry, his impatience and bad tone were no different from his usual behavior.

"I just want to ask you, why didn't you say a word when your friends sang and sarcastically and belittled me this afternoon?" An Xueying admitted that she was a little anxious, so even the usual superficial smile I can't stand it either.

Xia Mochen sighed: "What do you want me to say?"

"What do you say? That's your business. But if you don't say anything and don't respond, does that mean you acquiesce to what they say?"

"How is it, and what is it not?"

An Xueying frowned, and smiled feebly: "Then you are really generous. Are those words of your friends just mocking me? In the final analysis, they are still aimed at you? They don't respect you. His wife, that is, disrespects you, does it not matter to you?"

Xia Mochen frowned, he didn't speak, but he looked away.

"Does it mean that I will endure their unreasonable bad words and insults with you in the future?"

Xia Mochen's expression was complicated, but he still didn't say anything.

"I have no right to interfere with how you get along with your friends. They feel that I am not worthy of you, and I can't do anything about it. But let me be blunt. As an ordinary person, I have traveled from my hometown to this place for so many years. I've never been humiliated like this."

Xia Mochen suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, but his eyes were only playful, as if he was watching a joke: "Why, can't you take it?"

"Yes, I really can't bear it, so, either you just drive me away completely, anyway, the one-month deadline you gave is not far away, I guess you won't choose to keep me, just advance this time A little; or at least tell me next time your friend comes, can I stay away?"

"Didn't you perform well in front of my dad just now? You said something so confident, I thought you were very capable, but it turned out that you just played nicely."

An Xueying sighed heavily: "I forced myself out, just to prevent my father from being too disappointed in me and from embarrassing the Xia family. But to achieve this step, for me, I have done my best, so it's not as good as you Let me go."

Xia Mochen looked at An Xueying, but his gaze was quite different from before. There was no playfulness, no sarcasm, no mockery, and no sarcasm in that gaze, full of indescribably complicated emotions.

"I think that although I am weak, I am competitive and never give up easily. Even if I can't do many things, I will do my best. But this time, I choose to admit defeat. They say I am not worthy of you , I can't afford the Xia family, I admit it; they feel wronged for you, they are worthless for you, and I can bear it, but as a person, I still have my final bottom line, can't I beg you to let me go? "

Xia Mochen's gaze instantly became extremely sharp, but he suddenly leaned back and closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, all his emotions had been covered by him.

"You're playing tricks on me, aren't you?"

"...You can think whatever you want, as long as you are happy."

"Just now Dad defended you in front of my best friends, spoke for you, and directly humiliated Sakura, aren't you satisfied?"

An Xueying smiled weakly: "Dad didn't speak for me, he was just protecting the face and dignity of the Xia family, and it had nothing to do with me. Besides, what does Dad say is Dad's business, what about you? Think? Do you also feel wronged and unworthy? Do you think every word your good friends say is in line with your heart?"

"...When did I say that?" Xia Mochen's irritability finally became apparent, and his brows were tightly knit into knots.

"You didn't say it, but don't you think so?"

"An Xueying, you're jumping to conclusions without any basis! When will you change your faults!" Xia Mochen yelled at An Xueying irritably.

"If you don't think that way, why don't you speak? Why do you let them wantonly criticize and insult me? Or, you specially invited these people today, and deliberately let them tell me what they said?"

However, An Xueying did not yell at Xia Mochen as she expected, instead her voice became very soft, weak, and powerless.

"You..." The irritability, depression and anger in my heart were intertwined into a boiling pot of porridge, making Xia Mochen speechless for a moment.

She raised her head and swallowed the tears of grievance back into her stomach.

"How about this, I don't want to force you, why don't we all calm down tonight, you think about it carefully, and give me the answer tomorrow morning. I don't know what day is 'next Wednesday' that Miss Xi is referring to. , but I know that next Wednesday is the deadline you gave me, anyway, there are not a few days left, why don't you make a break earlier. "

An Xueying turned around and planned to leave directly, but Xia Mochen still stopped her with words: "Before you kept saying that you would work hard to fall in love with me, but in the end your hard work and your love are so vulnerable? Your pride What about your self-confidence? Where did it go? Don’t you think you’re ridiculous and pathetic by giving up so easily?”

An Xueying smiled wryly, and her voice trembled uncontrollably: "Maybe, as you said before, I was really afraid, afraid that when I was abandoned, I would look too bleak and bleak. Emotionally, I am indeed a Coward, I'm afraid of getting hurt, afraid that my dedication and love won't get any response, so I might as well run away before I fall completely."

Xia Mochen was so angry that his body trembled a little, the veins on his hands were exposed, and his breath became chaotic: "...An Xueying, you are so ridiculous! You are not even as good as Tang Zexuesui!"

At the mention of this name, An Xueying suddenly calmed down, and the weak smile on her face even became a little brighter.

"Yes, I am not as strong as Yuho, I am not as strong as her, nor as brave as her. If it were me, I would not become Karasawa Yuho, let alone Takamiya Yuho and Shinozuka Yuho; if it were me , I will choose to be Yukiho Nishimoto and live with Ryoji in some humble and dirty corner of the world, instead of choosing to live alone under the sun."

After saying these words, An Xueying opened the door and left, and quickly ran to her room, as if deliberately not giving herself a chance to hear Xia Mochen's voice again.

Xia Mochen's chest heaved violently. As soon as An Xueying left, he picked up a book and threw it on the ground. Unfortunately, it wasn't "White Night Journey", but it happened to be "Magic Night".

But he himself didn't even quite understand why he was so angry and what it was.

The phone vibrated twice on the table, the screen automatically turned on, and the information was automatically displayed on the screen.

Jiang Shaojie: "Mochen, I'm sorry, if I knew I wouldn't come here with Xiaomo and Xiaoying, I didn't expect to have such an unhappy day today. You and sister-in-law didn't have any trouble, did you?"

After calming down for a few minutes, Xia Mochen still picked up his phone and replied two words to Jiang Shaojie: It's okay.

A moment later, Jiang Shaojie sent a longer message.

"Stop talking, my sister-in-law must be angry, you have to coax her well, women are very sensitive about their ex, not to mention Xiaomo and Xiaoying said so many excessive and ugly things today, I can't listen Let's go down... Mochen, brother Jie, I know women better than you, the more angry a woman is, the easier it is to coax her, if you really don't know how to coax my sister-in-law, I will teach you!"
