Chapter 47 The Choice Is Already Made
Chapter 47 The choice has been made long ago
"Tang Yiming, it's so late and you haven't gone back yet." Zhou Tang was silent for a while and finally spoke in a low voice.
"I've been waiting for you." Tang Yiming gathered his thoughts, lowered his head and looked at Zhou Tang seriously, his voice was low, and then he seemed to be determined, "Did my mother call you today?"
Zhou Tang was startled, and Tang Yiming continued: "I don't know what my mother said to you, but Zhou Tang, I don't want to hide it from you. I did get engaged to the daughter of the Xue family today, but she and I both have our own lovers."
"We are just cooperating with each other to deal with our parents together today. We are just cooperating and have no feelings."
Zhou Tang was caught off guard and couldn't react.
Tang Yiming continued: "I have been wanting to call you tonight, but I didn't find the right time. I don't want people from the Tang family and the Xue family to focus on you just because of my mistake, and you will be involved in the Tang and Xue disputes."
My family was in a whirlpool, so... I could only call you after the engagement was completely over, but you didn't answer. At that time, I knew you must be disappointed in me."
He took the initiative to confess everything.
Zhou Tang came back to his senses, feeling a little complicated but also a little relieved. He thought that Tang Yiming was really not a bad person, and he never thought about hiding it from her.
It's a pity that due to the situation, the identity difference is too big. Even though Tang Yiming and the daughter of the Xue family have their own loves, their engagement is still a fact.
"Tang Yiming, you also said that you are engaged to the daughter of the Xue family, and you have to deal with both parents. So with your family background and status, whether you want it or not, you still have to marry someone like the daughter of the Xue family. I am now
You also know the situation, I can't get in the eyes of your parents, and I don't want to make it difficult for you because of me, so..." Zhou Tang thought for a while before speaking, with a sincere attitude.
However, before any further words could be said, Tang Yiming interrupted in a low and serious voice, "Zhou Tang, did you know that I would marry Xue Qing? Being engaged does not mean that I will get married. I don't know what my mother said to you today, but
What she said can only represent her, not me, and I will not delay Xue Qing for too long. We can end our engagement in two months at most."
As he spoke, he reached out and gently held Zhou Tang's hand, his eyes soft and solemn, "Zhou Tang, you just agreed to be with me last night, and now we haven't even tried, are you going to give up?"
?”
Zhou Tang's heart tightened, "I just don't want to embarrass you." And I'm just using you now, not to the point of loving you. I just don't want to see you fighting with the family for me. I'm not worthy of you.
.
Zhou Tang is full of complex feelings.
"You don't want to embarrass me, or are you being forced by someone?" Tang Yiming's voice deepened slightly, and his eyes slowly fell towards Chen Yan. Thinking of what Chen Yan did to Zhou Tang today, he couldn't help but feel cold.
Said: "Chen Yan, what do you mean today?"
He always had a grudge against Chen Yan.
In his eyes, Zhou Tang is soft-hearted and careless, and is easily deceived by others. Therefore, the biggest reason why Zhou Tang didn't answer his call tonight is because of what Chen Yan said to her.
He also found out that Chen Yan accompanied Zhou Tang to see Mu Jizhou tonight on the pretext of taking Zhou Tang to his mother's place for dinner.
But there is no such coincidence in the world. Chen Yan’s mother didn’t invite him earlier, but she wanted to invite Zhou Tang to dinner at that time. Moreover, Chen Yan, the president of Wansheng, has always had many things to do, and he didn’t like Zhou Tang very much.
, but he was able to drive to Zhou Tang's company to pick up Zhou Tang in person. Regarding these points, if Chen Yan did not do it on purpose, no one would believe it.
Chen Yan was already standing three steps behind Zhou Tang. His thin lips were curled up in a smile, his eyes were full of contempt and sarcasm, and he did not reply in time.
It was only then that Zhou Tang remembered Chen Yan.
She didn't want Chen Yan to get involved in her and Tang Yiming's affairs, and was also worried that Tang Yiming would conflict with Chen Yan. Compared to Tang Yiming, a person with a stable personality, Chen Yan was like a bomb that could be ignited at any time.
She was about to tactfully persuade Tang Yiming to leave first and not to confront Chen Yan. After all, Chen Yan tonight seemed to be coming with bad intentions.
Unexpectedly, before the words came out, Chen Yan behind him suddenly chuckled and replied casually, "What do you mean?"
Tang Yiming said coldly: "Pretend to be stupid? Chen Yan, do you dare to say that everything today was not done by you?"
Chen Yan smiled faintly, "Tang Yiming, don't talk nonsense. All you thought was that you didn't pick up Zhou Tang because of the Xue family's daughter. I happened to pick her up and rescued her from Mu Jizhou."
Just go back."
Tang Yiming sneered, "A coincidence? Then the earth-shaking news on the Internet today also spread by chance? The Wansheng Group's public relations is so incompetent that their president can be called a mistress on the Internet?"
"That's because Mu Jizhou lost the fight and joined forces with the Mingyang Group to deliberately retaliate." Chen Yan replied casually, as if he was dealing with it casually, and his attitude was lazy and condescending, making Tang Yiming even more angry after hearing this.
"You, Chen Yan, are the arrogant influence in Beicheng, and you are even more powerful in the country. Even if Mu Jizhou wants to win over Ming Yang for revenge, who would have dared to let this kind of news spread on major platforms without your own consent?"
Chen Yan raised the corners of his eyes, said nothing, and only looked at Zhou Tang faintly. He was obviously blaming Zhou Tang for causing trouble and infamy for him.
Zhou Tang turned around and glanced at Chen Yan, feeling overwhelmed.
She subconsciously said to Chen Yan: "Chen Yan, didn't you come here today to congratulate Tang Yiming? It's already very late now. Why don't you say a few words and go back to rest early? Your health is important."
The corners of Chen Yan's eyes raised slightly, as if Zhou Tang's words did not satisfy him. His gaze on Zhou Tang's face became more scrutinizing and colder, and his thin lips curved into a hint of mockery.
Zhou Tang was a little at a loss when he stared at her, and then she realized that she was being self-righteous again. Chen Yan came here tonight to talk to Tang Yiming about other things, but she was so short-circuited that she persuaded him to leave.
According to Chen Yan's morbid temperament, he is probably going to explode again.
Just as he was thinking about it, Tang Yiming sneered at Chen Yan, "Congratulations are not necessary, but I have learned a lot about Mr. Chen's thoughts, so Mr. Chen should go back first. After all, it is too late, and Mr. Chen is now one of the most influential people on the Internet.
Man, it’s really inappropriate for you to stand here any longer.”
Chen Yan seemed to have no intention of leaving at all.
Tang Yiming was silent for a while, "Mr. Chen didn't leave because he wanted to stand here and watch how Zhou Tang and I reconciled? I, Tang Yiming, am not like you. If I get a chance, I will never give up." The implication is that
He will never give up on Zhou Tang no matter what.
Chen Yan seemed to have heard a big joke, "I just want to kindly remind you that Zhou Tang doesn't look like a person who can be a mistress. In that case, why don't you call Xue Qing right now?
Say you want to cancel your engagement with the person you love?"
His words seemed extremely deliberate, and he was obviously deliberately causing trouble to watch the show.
Tang Yiming squeezed Zhou Tang's hand tightly and didn't reply for a moment.
Zhou Tang took a deep breath, feeling a little helpless and defeated. Although Chen Yan's words were particularly disrespectful, tasteless, and lenient, these words not only embarrassed Tang Yiming, but also made her, Zhou Tang, feel ashamed.
She even knew clearly how her status could make Tang Yiming cancel his engagement with the daughter of the Xue family for her sake, and how could Tang Yiming fall out with the Xue family at this juncture.
Moreover, Chen Yan's words could not change any outcome whether she asked or not. After all, she also knew that Tang Yiming did not accompany her to see Mu Jizhou tonight, but chose to get engaged to the daughter of the Xue family after all, didn't he?
So Tang Yiming had already made a choice between her and the daughter of the Xue family, and she, Zhou Tang, had already been kicked out by the daughter of the Xue family, right?
