The waiter placed all the dishes neatly, bowed politely, and left silently.

Xu Chenghao picked up the knife and fork and glanced at the other party’s expression: “What? Are you still discriminating?”

Zheng Yunyun’s face was full of words: “Even if you want to reject me, you don’t need to find such a reason? You have such an affectionate reputation. Xiang, do you think I’m stupid or stupid, and would you believe what you said? I think you’re insulting my IQ.”

“How could it be?”

Xu Chenghao tried hard to justify himself: “Actually, I have no feelings for women. As for An Rouyu, I just protect her and love her with the responsibility of a fiancé, or else when she gave me a cuckold, I wouldn’t be so calm.”

This is indeed very convincing. Zheng Yunyun has always wondered. According to legend, the affectionate prince loves a person so much. When he learned that the other party cheated and was with others, he just cut off the relationship and stopped contacting them. There was no expression of betrayal, anger, and loss of love.

This is really unreasonable. As a result, the reason that the other party gave was not so unacceptable and even made her feel it was rational.

Zheng Yunyun frowned and finally sighed: “Whether you like men or not, since I can’t convince you, a win-win situation can’t be achieved. We are destined to give up cooperation… Since you want to give up cooperation, it seems useless to struggle with these.”

Xu Chenghao picked up the red wine: “I agree with your logic very much. Come, cheers!”

Zheng Yunyun reluctantly clinked glasses with him and ended the conversation with lunch.

It is more cost-effective for Xu Chenghao to settle the blind date with lunch, but three hours later, Xu’s mother rushed to the phone and started to ask him what he had done to the girl? Why did the person who used to be such a good girl break up with him after sending him lunch?

Xu Chenghao said cleanly: “That’s because I told her I like men.”

Mother Xu: “???”

“What did you say!!!”

The screams rushed out of the phone’s stereo instantly, deafening. Mother Xu was stunned and shocked and repeatedly asked: “Are you not wanting to lie to other girls on a blind date, or do you really like men? If you like men, what’s the matter with An Rouyu? How come you never said that before? ”

With his previous experience, Xu Chenghao explained it more smoothly and said earnestly:

“I didn’t lie. I really like men. As for An Rouyu… I’m only fulfilling my due responsibilities as her fiance; there are no other feelings. Or how could I be so calm when she cuckolded me? How could I get over the relationship so quickly without shock ?”

“As for never saying… When I learned about my sexuality, I also knew I had a fiancée. What can I do? That’s why I tried my best to compensate An Rouyu.”

Mother Xu: “…”

“Wait a minute, I’m a little confused. I @#¥%…” Mother Xu lost her ability to speak. After talking nonsense for a while, she regained her composure: “This problem is a bit big, son; come back and let’s have a good talk.”

Xu Chenghao looked at the time: “En, I’ll go home immediately.”

Mother Xu warned: “Don’t worry, Slow down on the road.”

“Okay.” Xu Chenghao hung up the phone, walked out of the office while putting on his jacket, and told Li Nian that he would leave the company early before leaving the company.

A few minutes later, Xu Chenghao rushed back to Xu’s house, and the housekeeper stepped forward and said, “Mrs. and Mr. are waiting for you in the study.”

Xu Chenghao’s eyelids jumped: “Okay, I understand.”

It seems that the question raised today is for the Xu family. It’s imperative, but to do it once and for all, he can only use the topic to discuss the issue of feelings.

Xu Chenghao raised his hand and knocked on the door: “Mom and Dad, I’m back.” The study door was opened, Mother Xu’s face was exposed from behind the door, and her eyes were a little flustered: “You’re back? Come in first.”

Xu Chenghao walked in response; his sight suddenly widened from the narrow door and fell into the quiet and bright study. The decoration of the study room is simple and black and white, which is very suitable for serious business. Dad Xu was sitting behind the desk, looking like he was doing business.

Compared with Xu’s mother, who was still in shock and other emotions, Xu’s father was calm as if his son was not coming out of the closet publicly, and his eyes were all calmly probed and examined.

Xu Chenghao’s eyelids jumped again, and he called Dad.

Father Xu nodded: “Just tell us what’s going on when you come back.”

Xu Chenghao sat opposite him and said calmly: “It’s as I said on the phone. I believe you already know the content. What I said is true. Yes, I’m not kidding or lying.”

Father Xu: “Do you know what it means for you to choose this path?”

Xu Chenghao: “Yes, I’m ready.”

Father Xu stared at him sharply as if I wanted to see a trace of evasion and discomfort in his eyes. Xu Chenghao faced it calmly, very relaxed.

Ten seconds later, Father Xu calmly said, “I won’t object to your feelings, but I hope you know that you are an adult with the ability to make your own decisions, and you should also be responsible for your own words and deeds.”

Xu Chenghao asked, a little surprised: “You don’t object?”

Father Xu glanced at him: “Am I very feudal?”

“No, not feudal at all.” Xu Chenghao laughed dryly. He thought that such a big move in the Xu family would be opposed, and then he would be told that the family should have a successor, but he didn’t expect… to be unexpectedly enlightened.

That was not how a parent in a typical Mary Sue plot behaves!

Xu Chenghao coughed twice to suppress his complaints and continued, “I want to talk to you about my relationship this time.”

“I know you are worried about me, and you are afraid that I will fall down because of An Rouyu’s affairs, so you have been very worried. Paying attention to my emotional issues. Now that I’ve said it, I want you to know that I don’t like An Rouyu, and I won’t secretly hurt myself for her, so I hope you all can rest assured and not worry about me.”

Considering the kindness of his parents, Xu Chenghao thought about his words and said: “After being engaged for so many years, in fact, after breaking off the marriage, I feel a sense of relief and enjoy my life by myself. I hope I can slowly find love instead of being in a hurry to get engaged again. I hope you understand.”

Mother Xu silently blushed: “Actually, as long as you are okay, we don’t want to force you; we’re just afraid that you won’t tell us….”

Father Xu also helped: “Your Mom thought your smile looked depressed a few days ago.”

Xu Chenghao’s mouth twitched: “…no, I’m healthy, don’t worry.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Mother Xu’s worries for many days finally disappeared. She smiled at Xu Chenghao and stretched out her hand.

Xu Chenghao thought it was time for mother and son to bond, but Mother Xu suddenly slapped him twice and pretended to be angry: “Hiding such a big matter from me and making me worry for so long, the stinky boy has grown up. So he can hide it. Ah!”

Xu Chenghao: “…Mom, shouldn’t you hug me and say you won’t force me in the future?”

Mother Xu: “Haha.”

Xu Chenghao: “…”

Xu Chenghao stayed at the Xu mansion till it was dark, then he drove back to his residence to rest. In the grid on the right side of the driver’s seat, the little yellow duck’s beak flower pot was fixed and remained motionless, and the flowers seemed to be blooming soon.

Xu Chenghao took a look while waiting for the red light and felt that the fruiting time would come soon, and he didn’t know whether he would be able to harvest peppers this time.

The green light ahead of him was on. When Xu Chenghao started to cross the sidewalk, he saw a white shadow suddenly running in front of him. He was startled and quickly braked. Seeing the white shadow in front of him falling down, he thought he had hit someone. He dialed 120 and called the ambulance, and got down to check.

On the sidewalk, a woman in a white dress fell to the ground with her hair disheveled. She seemed to be in a coma, and there was no movement when she heard footsteps.

After Xu Chenghao reported the address to 120, he hung up the phone and patted the other person’s shoulder: “Lady? Lady, are you all right… An Rouyu?”

After seeing the other’s face clearly, Xu Chenghao only had one sentence left in his heart.

When he read the novel, he always felt that every time the female lead had an accident, there would be a male protagonist and a male supporting villain to save her, which simply exaggerates fate.

Now, he believed it.

This damn spare tire halo! He simply can’t escape the female lead’s halo!

Xu Chenghao was very reluctant to be linked with the heroine, but since the person fell in front of his car, he would definitely not be able to walk away. He could only wait bitterly for the ambulance to arrive and then drive to the hospital to pay the bill….the good mood he had after settling the blind date in the morning and getting the consent of his parents were all gone.

Xu Chenghao sat outside the ward quite depressed. As long as he thought he was linked to the female lead, thus he would be pestered by the male lead and the villain or that the dark gift package was a crit. His legs were aching, and he felt that his days in a wheelchair were not long…

No, he has to do something!

Thinking about it, Xu Chenghao entered the ward to find the female lead’s mobile phone, dug out Ruan Chenxuan’s mobile phone number, and dialed – it was not connected. Xu Chenghao frowned slightly and found Jing Yicheng’s cell phone number to call, which worked.

The other party’s voice was light, not like the sound of being woken up. He just said hello in a low voice?

Xu Chenghao coughed lightly: “Hello, this is Ward 21 of the Central Hospital. A young lady named An Rouyu had an accident. Only your phone could be reached. I hope you can come to the hospital. Thank you for your cooperation.” The other party was silent for a while and asked: “Xu Chenghao?”

Xu Chenghao: “…”

I am so embarrassed.

He scratched his neck subconsciously and angrily said, “Yes, it’s me.”

Jing Yicheng’s voice was filled with the coercive feeling that screamed I’ll give you a chance to explain. “What’s going on here?”

Xu Chenghao became angrier and angrier: “Just now, I found An Rouyu on the side of the road, she was in a coma, and she was in a bad state, so I called an ambulance to take her to the hospital…you, why don’t you come and see her?”

Xu Chenghao almost said: You like her so much. Her accident is in line with the part of your courtship plan to save the beauty. I will take the initiative to give you a chance. You can come quickly.

He didn’t know if the other party understood this, but Jing Yicheng said, “Ten minutes.”

Xu Chenghao breathed a sigh of relief: “Then, since you are coming, I will…”

Jing Yicheng: “Wait!”

Xu Chenghao: “…”

Sudden leg pain.

The author has something to say: The dark package, you deserve it!
