The Price of Rebirth [System]

Chapter 50. Engagement and dispute

Although Zhang Chongji had made up his mind to break up with Yuan Cheng, he did not expect this opportunity to come so quickly.

When he saw the explosive news on TV, the porcelain cup he was wiping in his hand fell off his palm because it was too serious, and fell to the ground with an ear-piercing sound, and shattered into several pieces.

"What happened!"

Father Wu was alarmed by the noise in the living room, and hurriedly came out of the kitchen with a kitchen knife.

"Why are you so careless?" Father Wu heaved a sigh of relief when he knocked on the few fragments on the ground, then put down the kitchen knife and grabbed his son's hand, touching it distressedly, "Hand Did you get cut?"

Zhang Chongji didn't respond, his eyes stayed on the news on the TV, his expression was completely unbelievable, his lips were almost bleeding out from his own bite.

What's wrong with this?

Wu's father followed Zhang Chongji's stunned appearance in bewilderment, and then opened his eyes wide in astonishment.

"...The marriage of the Yuan and Bai families is already a big sensation in the business world. Once the news of the engagement is confirmed, many businessmen are overjoyed. What makes people wonder is whether the merger of the two families will make the two groups Will it become stronger in the future? Of course, I would also like to congratulate the young master of the Yuan family and the eldest lady of the Bai family on their happy and happy marriage. I will continue to report on the UK for you..."

Engaged to...?

The young master of the Yuan family and the eldest lady of the Bai family?

Obviously the person who hugged him last week and said he would not betray, but this week he made a big news about his engagement to Miss Qianjin.

"I just said that you shouldn't be with him! How can someone from a famous family stay with you all the time?!" Seeing this, Wu's father felt angry from his heart. He hid his foot on the floor and turned off the TV angrily. Seeing his son's blank face with pale lips, he couldn't help being both angry and distressed.

His good son, that is the good son he loves to the core!Now I was heartbroken by such a bolt from the blue.

Father Wu stepped forward to gently hug Zhang Chongji, raised his hand to pat him on the head, wanted to give him comfort, but felt that he couldn't do anything, finally he sighed, and said with a complicated expression: "Xiaojing, this, this matter is If that's the case, you should hurry up and break up with him..."

"is that a lie?"

"Xiao Jing?"

"You're lying! Brother Yuan wouldn't do that!" Zhang Chongji seemed to be recovering from the blow, shaking his head in a flustered expression, and after taking a few steps back, he began to rummage through his phone, "This must be a fake I'm going to call him, yes, call him..."

Wu's father raised his hand to stop his actions but gave up in the end. He watched his son dial the phone hopefully, and sighed faintly.

It's okay to let him make a phone call to give up.

"...beep beep, the phone you dialed has been turned off..."

Zhang Chongji dialed the phone again and again with trembling fingers, but that day the same cold female voice rang out.

"It's turned off...don't answer...why didn't you answer my call..."

Zhang Chongji sat on the ground murmuring, the phone in his hand was still on the dial-out interface.

Father Wu finally couldn't bear to see his son's behavior, he held his shoulder and caressed his cheek.

"Xiao Jing, calm down, look at Dad, and Dad is..."

"Dad...Dad?" Zhang Chongji's eyes were red, and he threw himself into Father Wu's arms as if he had suddenly realized it. "Dad...does he not want me anymore? He is getting engaged..."

The son in his arms choked and hesitated, almost breaking Father Wu's heart in pain, full of self-blame and annoyance, if he hadn't hesitated so much, if he had strongly stopped him from the beginning, maybe his son would have been with the Yuan family's The young master broke up, and now he won't be so upset and heartbroken.

"Xiaojing..."

At this time, Wu's father was also a little at a loss, so he could only sit on the ground with him, and patted his back comfortingly.

However, whether Zhang Chongji, nestled in Wu's father's arms, is really sad at this time, no one knows this except himself.

Maybe when I first saw the news, the initial emotion was my own, but what followed was my mind full of plans and opportunities.

At the second when the porcelain cup was shattered, he instantly woke up from the inexplicable heartache, threw away the emotions of the previous second and perfectly entered the abandoned role.

At the moment of transformation, Zhang Chongji felt very bored, very tired but very relaxed.

It may be contradictory to say so, but it can truly express his state at that moment.

Regarding Yuan Cheng's feelings, although Zhang Chongji had arranged it in the plan, he was innocent at the beginning, but until the end, Yuan Cheng's revelation of true feelings made Zhang Chongji feel more and more heavy.

He knew that he couldn't respond to him, but he had to occupy this feeling for so long, and the present opportunity might be a relief for himself.

Zhang Chongji admits that he is very selfish. He knows that this news must not be Yuan Cheng's own will, but he still reacts as he should for the plan. It is not that he has not thought about Yuan Cheng's reaction and attitude after the breakup. It is ironic that he is Yuan Cheng needed to be stimulated to make the decision to break up, so as to achieve a crucial step in his plan.

It's time to end it, he was nostalgic and moved, but in the end it was just a momentary emotion.

Zhang Chong nestled in Wu's father's arms and laughed silently at himself.

He felt that his heart was being destroyed by these tasks and unresponsive emotions.

Was it forced?It can also be said that it is not, but it is said that it is willing, but there is no such emotion in it.

"Xiao Jing, listen to Dad and forget about him..."

"Dad, I'm going to find him." Interrupting Father Wu's words, Zhang Chongji's lowered eyes flickered, and then he raised his head in a panic, with a little hope in his eyes, "I'm going to ask him to find out...he's sure Will give me an answer!"

"Xiao Jing, don't you still understand the point of this matter? You and Yuan Cheng are impossible to be together!" Father Wu tried to persuade him, but Zhang Chongji resolutely broke away from Father Wu's hand, picked up the phone and started Running towards the porch, he was almost staggered by the steps in a panic.

"Xiaojing! Xiaojing!" Father Wu stood up angrily and shouted, but the answer was the sound of the door being slammed shut.

"Hey - what kind of crime is this..."

Sighing, Father Wu slumped down on the sofa vicissitudes as if he was ten years old, frowning tightly. The few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and a little silver in his black hair reminded him that he is now a step-in For the elderly, some things are beyond their capabilities.

Sighing for a while alone in the living room, Father Wu seemed to have thought of something, his eyes widened in disbelief, he patted himself on the head with a sudden "Oops," and hurriedly stood up.

Marriage is a trifling matter, not to mention that this matter is related to the Yuan Group, so it is even more impossible for the young master Yuan Cheng to decide on his own. Thinking about it this way, the only possibility is... the master is back!

Master, master... Xiao Jing will be able to meet Master Yuan's family when he goes there like this?If Xiao Jing said something that annoyed him... Oops!

Father Wu anxiously fumbled for the keys on the coffee table, and went out in a panic.

At the same time, in the Yuan family.

"I've said it before, I won't marry her!" Yuan Cheng coldly dropped the newspaper in his hand, squinted at the swivel chair with his back facing him, his dark eyes were full of anger and strong resistance, " What does it mean in the newspaper?"

"That's what it means." The answer was a deep and vicissitudes of life, with an oppressive majesty.

"dad……"

"There's nothing to say, you can tie it if I tell you to." As soon as he finished speaking, the swivel chair facing Yuan Cheng turned around, and what came into view was a seemingly refined and deep old man.

He is said to be an old man, but he does not look like he is tottering old at all.

The black hair is mixed with a little white silk, the bronze face has a solemn and serious expression, and the eyes with black pupils are as sharp as copper bells, it seems that one can read people's hearts and minds at a glance.

The creek-like wrinkles on his forehead and the goatee on his chin did not add a bit of kindness and kindness to him, but instead added a bit of sophistication and majesty to his aura.

On the whole, he is a steady and dignified old man. The tempering of the years did not polish the only edges and corners of his body, but added a bit of vicissitudes and experiences in his life. It is these seemingly insignificant times Precipitation and experience pushed him to another peak in his life when he was so old.

That's right, the old man in front of him is the executive president of the Yuan Group and the father of the four brothers of the Yuan family——Yuan Hongtian.

"Dad, I said that I have someone I like." Yuan Cheng's eyes twinkled, with a bit of sweetness, "I just want to be with him."

"The person you like?" Yuan Hongtian snorted coldly, and tapped the pipe on the desk in his hand, "Can she recover the losses of the current group?"

"dad……"

"Can she bring greater group benefits..."

"dad!"

"Let me ask you," Yuan Hongtian slapped the table suddenly, his eyes staring directly at Yuan Cheng, "Can you!"

Yuan Cheng closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said two words stiffly: "No."

"Then do you know what kind of choices our group is facing now? Do you just want the family business that I have worked hard in my life to fall step by step like this!"

"But, Dad..."

"Brother, you just accept it." The one who answered this sentence was Yuan Ke, who had been leaning lazily on the sofa with his legs crossed. Wearing a white suit, he looked more graceful and handsome.

Yuan Cheng squinted at him, and said coldly, "Why didn't you accept the family marriage?"

Yuan Ke sneered, with strong sarcasm, looking at Yuan Cheng with a touch of gloating in his eyes: "Who made Miss Bai not like me, don't you think so, Dad?"

Yuan Cheng lowered his eyes and turned away his face, unwilling to confirm his father's cold eyes and serious expression. The gentle smile gradually appeared in his mind, and his heart was pierced.

Why are you always so forcefully forcing yourself to do things you don't want to do?

Why...not Yuan Ke?but him?Just because he is the elder brother, is he the eldest brother? !

Since he was a child, he was taught that his elder brother has to be patient with his brother in everything, and everything is for the family business and his brother, but why is it that his own happiness is still being manipulated by others?

Five years ago, the man in front of him called his father said to him: "Yuan Cheng, you are not suitable for running the family business, let Yuan Ke do it."

He agreed, so he silently accepted the assigned lawyer's job, and did not intend to compete with Yuan Ke for the family business.

And now this man told him that he would give up his relationship for the sake of his family business and marry a woman he hated to the core, this time he would accept it silently?

Why not Yuan Ke?The loss of the group should be his responsibility, and wouldn't it be better for Miss Bai to marry him?Just because that woman likes herself?

The seedling in Yuan Cheng's heart quietly grew out, carrying a jealousy that he didn't know about.

Yuan Ke, who was sitting leisurely by the side, was far from being as lazy as he looked on the surface. In fact, he couldn't calm down at all. He was worried about his elder brother, but more of it was the inexplicable joy that filled his mind.

If elder brother gets engaged, if elder brother breaks up with him, does that mean...he has a chance?

However, Yuan Cheng was so easy to compromise, even if Yuan Hongtian's aura was overwhelming him, he just gritted his teeth and said three words: "I refuse."

"Silly boy, you have no right to refuse. The news has already been released, and everything has been settled," Yuan Hongtian sneered, took a deep breath of his pipe, and said slowly, "You will hold an engagement ceremony with Miss Bai in three days. Presumably you Those lovers should have already heard the news through newspapers and TV."

Yuan Cheng's face turned pale when he heard that, and Yuan Ke's face also changed.

Wu Jing, got it?

At this moment, Yuan Cheng felt as if he had been hit in the head with a sap, and he was drowsy, with panic-stricken emotions coming from his heart.

No, he's going to explain...he will definitely misunderstand!

Yuan Cheng was about to walk out of the study in a few steps, but suddenly found that the door had been locked.

"Dad, you..."

Yuan Hongtian snorted coldly, and looked at Yuan Cheng with a severe and stern expression: "Before the engagement ceremony is held, you are not allowed to go anywhere!"
