Chapter 637 - The Cost of Help
the family, the cancellation of start-up capital for his business ventures, the collapse of Zhongding Gas, and the three diamond brands barely surviving—all these issues had little to do with Wang Zhe...Chapter 637: The Cost of Help
This place was guarded by Xu Zhaoxixi's trusted people, and ordinary individuals wouldn't be able to enter. The fact that the woman on the phone could come in meant she had received special treatment from Xu Zhaoxixi.
The moment she entered the mansion hall, a woman dressed in men’s suit rushed over with tear stains all over her face.
"Brother Zhaoxi, you have to help me! You must help me! I want to kill that man, I want to kill him!"
If Chu Zhuonan were here, he would be shocked because this woman was none other than his fiancée, the eldest Miss of the Northeast Xie Family—Xie Tiantian!
"If you wish to kill, then go ahead and do it. You are not without your own strength," Xu Zhaoxixi sat on the sofa, took out a cigar from the box, lit it up, and deeply inhaled; immediately, smoke filled the entire room.
Very few people knew that he smoked. The eldest son of the Chu Family had always kept this hidden well. It seemed that Xie Tiantian's relationship with him was indeed special, as it was rare for someone to see him smoking in his estate.
"But I don't even know who that person is! I hate him so much!" Xie Tiantian cried pitifully, and for a lady of such high status, what could be more humiliating than being stripped naked before everyone This was almost an unbearable blow!
Xu Zhaoxixi's eyebrows slightly furrowed as he said, "I told you long ago that Beijing is different from the north. You need to consider many things and people here, but you didn't listen to me and acted in such a high-profile manner, arrogantly treating Beijing like your own backyard This is the political center of China, where dragons coil and tigers lie! If you wish to marry into our Chu Family, I welcome it with both hands. But if you create trouble in Beijing and bring troubles upon the Chu Family, I will absolutely not agree!"
Xu Zhaoxixi's voice carried a faint hostility.
"Then what should I do" Xie Tiantian sniffed her nose, looking pitiful and helpless.
“Swallow your pride. Once you become a daughter-in-law of the Chu family, won’t everything be resolved” After some thought, Chu Zhaoxi said, “Think about your ultimate goal; all your actions and efforts should serve that purpose.”
"But I still want to kill that person, but I don't know who he is. I know it’s all because of that woman named Xiao Juan!" At the mention of this name, a strong hatred and resentment flashed in Xie Tiantian's eyes.
This woman not only didn’t repent but also shifted blame onto others; she didn't even consider the cause-and-effect relationship between events. If she hadn’t caused trouble for Xiao Juan, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.
“I want to kill her! Brother Zhaoxi, you must help me! Please!” Xie Tiantian pleaded earnestly.
“Xiao Juan was my brother Zhaonan’s ex-girlfriend. Do you think I can help you with this”
Chu Zhaoxi’s words were somewhat vicious. After all, Xie Tiantian's true identity would be the future daughter-in-law of the Chu family; pointing out Zhaonan and Xiao Juan’s relationship in front of her was like adding fuel to the fire.
Indeed, simple-minded Xie Tiantian fell into the trap easily. After hearing Chu Zhaoxi's words, her anger flared up even more intensely, with an increasingly profound resentment in her eyes: “Hmph, what ex-girlfriend Just a bar girl trying to compare herself to me! Only the last laugh counts!”
Chu Zhaoxi shook his head. "That’s not important; understanding what Zhaonan truly wants is crucial. As for dealing with Xiao Juan, I really can’t help you."
"Brother Zhaoxi, you have to help me! In the capital, I don't know anyone and only you have been helping me all along. This time, Fox was severely injured, and I was publicly humiliated; Brother Zhaoxi, please!"
Thinking back to the group of people in the bar mocking her as "black ear fungus," Xie Tiantian was so angry that she couldn't contain herself. This was undoubtedly the greatest humiliation she had ever experienced, with no exceptions.
Chu Zhaoxi sighed and said, "I'm tired, I'll go rest for a while. You think about it some more."
Xie Tiantian watched Chu Zhaoxi's retreating figure upstairs; her eyes flickered with a mixture of anguish and determination. She looked down at herself and then gritted her teeth before following him upstairs.
Chu Zhaoxi entered the bedroom, but didn't fully shut the door, leaving it slightly ajar. Clearly, he was waiting for Xie Tiantian's actions, needing to see how determined this woman truly was. If she wasn't ruthless and cunning enough, then as her big brother, there would be no need for him to help his younger brother Chu Zhaonan find such a wife.
Chu Zhaoxi was taking a shower in the bathroom when he suddenly heard the door being gently pushed open. The corners of his mouth involuntarily curved into a barely noticeable smile. Without turning back, he knew who had come.
Before Chu Zhaoxi could turn around, a soft body tightly pressed against his back.
"Brother Zhaoxi, help me," Xie Tiantian wrapped her arms around Chu Zhaoxi's waist in pleading and seductive tones.
Chu Zhaoxi was an ordinary man; being embraced by such a woman naturally caused him to react. He turned around, smiled slightly while looking at Xie Tiantian with his head lowered, then shook his head: "Actually, you don't need to do this for me. I have already seen your determination. Alright, I'll help you. I will make every effort to help you enter the Chu family."
"No, Brother Zhaoxi, you haven’t seen my true determination yet," Xie Tiantian shook her head and then knelt down before gently taking him into her mouth.
Back in Rain Swallow's apartment.
It wasn't until an hour later that Wang Zheng finally withdrew his needles, by which time sweat was pouring down his forehead. During this hour, neither of them spoke; he concentrated on acupuncture while she focused on observing the one performing it for her, creating a somewhat tranquil atmosphere."Phew, I haven't done such meticulous work in a long time." Wang Zheng let out a sigh as he slowly removed the last silver needle from Rain Swallow's body. She felt an unprecedented sense of relief, though there was also a vague feeling of loss accompanying it.Yes, with the removal of this final needle, the acupuncture session came to an end."Are you feeling much better" Wang Zheng wiped his sweat and asked."Yes, I am." Rain Swallow seriously experienced her condition after the treatment and then nodded in agreement.Previously, she would often experience a dull pain in her lower abdomen that sometimes became excruciatingly sharp, as if there were numerous small knives slicing through her insides. This was accompanied by a sense of entanglement, as though everything inside her lower abdomen was tightly knotted together, making her feel heavy and unable to relax.Most importantly, during each menstrual period, she would experience such severe pain that it felt worse than being cut with a knife."You might have frequent diarrhea in the next few days; this is your body expelling accumulated toxins." Wang Zheng raised his phone to say: "I'll send you the prescription for medicine later. After preparing and boiling them according to the prescription, take them regularly over half a year. You should see good results."# Thanks to Brother Divine Sword for the vote support!see the road ahead.Anyone who has studied a driver’s license knows that when practicing steep hill parking, one can't see the road below in the initial few meters after starting down a slope.
