Chapter 776

"Xuxu, don't blame you! The matter hasn't been investigated clearly yet, so let's not jump to any conclusion now. I will contact Zeng Zhi immediately and ask Zhou Hanzhi to give us an explanation about this matter!" Wu Ling interrupted me and hurried to calm me down.

Xiao Ye on the side had a dark face and said hatefully: "This matter must be investigated thoroughly. Neither Zhou Hanzhi nor Lin Xixi can escape! They actually bullied my baby. They are simply courting death!"

As he spoke, he stood up and said, "Baby sister, don't be angry about what happened today. Wait for me here for a while."

"What are you going to do?" I suddenly came to my senses, grabbed Xiaoye's hand and hurriedly stopped him, "Don't go!"

Whenever he encounters something concerning me, Xiao Ye always cannot help but get anxious and impulsive. Today, he was shocked by the information provided by Lin Xixi, secondly because I stopped him just now, and thirdly because he doesn't like to attack women.

But he also knew that Zhou Hanzhi was the instigator of this incident, and he would definitely go find Zhou Hanzhi to settle the score now.

But I can't let him be so impulsive, not because I'm worried that he can't defeat Zhou Hanzhi, but... there's no need.

Zhou Hanzhi is indeed a bastard. He and Lin Xixi played tricks on me, but...

I am also at fault for what happened last night.

I suddenly had a brain storm and actually took the initiative to propose to Zhou Hanzhi that he break up with Lin Xixi and get engaged to me.

Therefore, even if Xiao Ye went to find Zhou Hanzhi and made a big deal out of this matter, it would not be of any benefit to me and would only make Xiao Ye sad.

Even though I know that he has always liked me and tolerated me, and will not change his attitude towards me because of this, he will definitely be sad.

"Yes, Xiaoye, don't go. With your temper, you will definitely fight with Zhou Hanzhi if you go. Do you still want to be on the headlines because of a fight?" Wu Ling also stopped Xiaoye and persuaded him patiently, "I'd better go. I'll ask Zeng Zhi about this matter. I must give Xuxu an explanation!"

"You don't go either!" I called out to Wu Ling.

Under the surprised gazes of Wu Ling and Xiao Ye, I just made a decision quietly: "Don't ask anything, let this matter be over. I will never have anything to do with Zhou Hanzhi again. Xiao Ye, let's get engaged right away."

Even if I go to find Zhou Hanzhi, he won't be able to give me an explanation, not only because I am also in the wrong in this matter, but also because I know Zhou Hanzhi's character. This person is cunning and hypocritical. Even if he did something to hurt me, even if I have definite evidence, he will never admit it.

He would just say that it was a misunderstanding and he never wanted to hurt me. Even Zeng Zhi would explain for him: Brother Zhou had his own reasons.

So, none of this means anything to me.

All I can do is do what I should do.

I must stay away from Zhou Hanzhi, and in order to prevent him from continuing to pester me, I must get engaged to Xiao Ye immediately.

"Darling sister, you...you really want to do this?" Xiao Ye was surprised and happy, and immediately nodded, "Okay, I'll go tell Sister Min and the old man right away, and let's move up the engagement date."

"Okay." I nodded with a smile.

The sooner the better. After Xiao Ye and I get engaged, Zhou Hanzhi should stop bothering me. After all, even if he doesn't care about me, he should still consider the face of the Yuan and Zhang families.

He could treat Meng Nanxu as a toy, but he could not treat the future young lady of the Yuan family as a toy.

Ono's mood improved a lot and he immediately went out to make a phone call.

But after Xiao Ye left, Wu Ling sat down next to me and whispered, "Xu Xu, have you really thought about it?"

"Well, it was a bit fast, but the ending is him anyway, it doesn't matter if it's faster or slower." I knew Wu Ling felt that Xiao Ye and I were progressing a bit too fast.

But Wu Ling shook his head: "No, I'm asking you, have you really considered being with Xiaoye? Do you really love Xiaoye?"

I was stumped by the question.

Do I love Ono?

I do not know.

Have I really thought about being with Ono?

I do not know either.

All I know is that I have to get engaged to Ono right now.

"Xuxu, if you really love Xiaoye and are sure you are ready to spend the rest of your life with him, then talk about marriage with him right away. But if you haven't thought it through and are only doing this because of Zhou Hanzhi, then I would advise you to be cautious." Wu Ling's tone was light but meaningful. "As a sister, I hope you can see your heart clearly. I don't want you to regret it one day. If that's the case, it will be the greatest harm to Xiaoye."

Wu Ling’s words were like a bullet, hitting me right between the eyebrows.

I stood there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

I have to admit, she has a point.

"Xuxu, everything hasn't happened yet, and there's still time, but once it starts, there's no turning back. Think about it?" Wu Ling held my hand and said again.

I was silent again. Yes, I thought, I need to think about it again.

Wu Ling left soon, leaving me with time and space.

But I don’t have time to think about these things. I turned on my computer and started working mode, hoping that the busy work could free me from these messy thoughts.

However, even when I was working, Wu Ling's words were still replaying in my mind.

I have to admit that I was anxious to move up the engagement date with Xiaoye because of Zhou Hanzhi. This behavior was selfish and not fair to Xiaoye.

Moreover, I have only just begun to accept Ono, but I am not ready to be with him for the rest of my life.

I still have so many secrets...

My thoughts were becoming more and more confused, but one idea was becoming clearer and clearer: Wu Ling was right, I was indeed too impulsive and selfish. I should be more cautious and not rush to get engaged to Xiao Ye just because of Zhou Hanzhi.

It's not too late now. I should find Ono immediately and cancel the engagement temporarily. When our relationship has really reached that point, when I am ready to tell him all the secrets, and when he can fully accept my past, then we can start our future.

I couldn't delay any longer, so I immediately put down the work at hand, stood up and went to find Ono.

But before I reached the door, the office door was pushed open, and Ono's figure strode in and bumped into me.

"elder sister……"

"What's wrong, Xiaoye? Why are you so panicked?" I steadied myself and looked up at him, but saw that he was frowning, with an anxious and worried look on his face. My heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

"Sister, I have to go home quickly. I just called Sister Min and the old man, but they didn't answer. So I called Uncle Yang, and Uncle Yang said that the old man and Sister Min are making a fuss at my house!" Xiao Ye said in a very anxious tone, "I'm telling you something. Just focus on your work. I'll go back and deal with it."
