This night, Zhan did not know how he slept or woke up.
However, after the night, Zhan had calmed down a lot.
Right now, this thing had a great impact on him. He was going to be a screenwriter in the show business.
But now that he was tagged with the home-wrecker, even if he became famous in the future, those people who mentioned him would probably think of the home-wrecker first.
But he couldn’t give up writing, nor could he admit that he was a home-wrecker.
After all, he was the one who married into the Wangs in the beginning.
He took out his phone and scanned his Weibo.
He was scolded everywhere.
Even though he had already prepared himself mentally, when he saw so many comments scolding him, he felt a lump in his throat.
“Zhan, it’s time for breakfast.”
Ziyi’s voice sounded from outside with great care.
Zhan turned off his phone, put on his shoes and walked out, “Coming.”
He opened the door and found Ziyi standing at the door with a dull expression.
Zhan smiled at her, “Let’s go and have breakfast.”
“Yes.” Ziyi followed him blankly.
Seeing Zhan’s desperate appearance yesterday, she was worried and thought about how to comfort Zhan today.
However, Zhan came out like nothing had happened…..
Sitting at the dining table, she said, “Zhan….”
Zhan interrupted her and said, “I need to go back to the Xiao’s later.”
“What are you doing back at the Xiao’s?” Ziyi paused and put down her chopsticks, looking at him.
“That marriage certificate must have something to do with Zanilla. Neither Yibo nor I know about it. Xiao’s must know something.”
After Zhan finished his words, he drank the last mouthful of milk in the cup and stood up.
“If you have something to do, you can go back to work, I can go back myself.”
“But….” Ziyi was still worried about him.
“It’s all nonsense.They can’t turn the facts upside down.” Zhan smiled faintly, “It will be over.”
It would all be over, Regarding Yibo, Zhan was a little confused, but the most important thing right now was to settle the matter first.
When Zhan left Ziyi’s house, he put on sunglasses and a mask.
When he was dressed up, seeing that Ziyi was still wearing a long face, Zhan comforted her, “Come on, imagine that we are just enjoying the life of a celebrity in advance.”
***
At the entrance of the community, Zhan saw Bowen.
“Mrs. Wang.” Bowen’s hair was a little messy, as if he hadn’t slept well at night.
Zhan frowned and asked, “Why are you here?”
“Mr. Wang told me to wait here in case you wanted to go somewhere. I can drive you.” Bowen was as respectful as ever.
Zhan froze for a moment without saying anything.
Yibo was so smart. He actually knew that I would go to the Xiao’s.
“Then thank you.”
Now Zhan had a special situation. Having Bowen drive him would save him a lot of trouble.
After getting in the car, Zhan took out his mobile phone and scanned Weibo.
The trending topics about him on Weibo had all been removed.
There was even no post about him in any forum.
However, there were still some screenshots of the content of him topics everywhere.
“It is said that the person who got engaged to the Mr. Wang was the daughter of the Xiao’s, but the one who got married was the son of the Xiao….”
“Isn’t the son of the Xiao’s ugly and stupid?”
“Who knows? Perhaps the taste of rich people is very special.”
“There are so many secrets in the rich family…..”
“It’s also possible that the two siblings are serving Mr. Wang at the same time.”
“Anyway, those two siblings of the Xiao’s are not kind…..”
Zhan was a little angry when he read the comments.
Then, he comforted himself that he was just an insignificant person, and then he felt slightly better.
At this moment, the cell phone rang in the car.
It wasn’t Zhan’s phone, but Bowen’s.
Bowen picked up the phone and glanced at Zhan from the rearview mirror.
It was Yibo.
Yibo didn’t sleep all night, and his voice was a little hoarse, “Is Zhan in the car?”
“Yes,” Bowen replied.
“I’ve already arranged for a bodyguard to come over. Be careful. If he loses a hair, you won’t have to come back to see me.”
Yibo’s voice was always low and deep. There was no threat in his tone, but his words brought Bowen out in a cold sweat.
“I got it.”
Just as he hung up the phone, Zhan handed him a tissue. “Is the temperature of the air conditioner too high? Why are you sweating?”
Bowen didn’t feel hot, but scared.
But the next second, Bowen said against his will, “It’s a little hot. Thank you, Mrs. Wang.”
***
Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the Xiao’s.
There were already two cars at the entrance of the mansion.
Just as Zhan was curious who had come, he saw a group of bodyguards in suits get out of the two cars.
They looked a little familiar.
They seemed to be from Yibo’s mansion.
The bodyguards walked over to Zhan and opened the door for him, “Mrs. Wang.”
“What are you doing here?” Zhan got off the car.
The bodyguard said in unison, “Waiting for you.”
Zhan suddenly felt that they all looked very stupid.
At this time, a group of reporters suddenly jumped out from the woods across the road. “Hello, Mrs. Wang, May I have an interview?”
Zhan was dumbfounded for a moment before he came to himself.
The bodyguard kept the reporters away from him, “We don’t accept interviews.”
Bowen also got out of the car and protected Zhan as he entered the mansion, Zhan couldn’t help but look back.
Those reporters were stopped by tall bodyguards, but they didn’t give up and tried to squeeze in with their cameras on their shoulders, causing their hair and faces to almost distort.
Zhan was dazzled by the light of the magnesium lamps from such a distance.
There were always many rubberneckers in this world. They didn’t care about the truth, only paying attention to what they wanted to see. And they didn’t care about how you would be affected by these things.
There was no sympathy in this world, and he had to rely on himself after all.
Zhan thought as he walked into the hall of Xiao’s mansion.
After such a thing happened, the Xiaos did not dare to go out. Other than Jianmin who went to the company, everyone else was at home.
When the servant saw Zhan enter, she informed the rest of the Xiao’s.
When he entered, Jingtong and Shenhai just came downstairs.
Seeing Zhan, Jingtong greeted him, “Zhan.”
“Hi, Mom.” Zhan looked down and answered without any expression. Then, he turned to Shenhai and said, “Hi, grandpa.”
Jingtong followed Shenhai to the hall and said carefully, “You talk first, I’ll make some tea.”
A trace of ridicule flashed through Zhan’s eyes, Jingtong actually didn’t care about such a big thing happening to him, and she only wanted to please Shenhai.
Jingtong had lived her entire life with caution. She was always pleasing Jianmin, Zanilla and his siblings, or Shenhai.
She was busy pleasing everyone in the Xiao’s, but she had never cared for the son she had given life to.
She had never thought that she should care about such a big matter.
It seemed that she was used to ignoring Zhan.
After Jingtong left, Shenhai pondered for a moment and then said, “I know everything on the Internet. I have grounded your sister. She is still so foolish at such an old age!”
There was a hint of hatred in his tone, but maybe he was just comforting Zhan.
“I want to see her.” That was why Zhan returned today.
Shenhai did not refuse, He asked the servant to bring him upstairs to see Zanilla.
Just as he reached Zanilla’s room, he heard Zanilla’s angry roar from inside.
“Let me out!”
“You bitches, I’ll come out and deal with you! Get the hell out of here!”
After cursing a few times, she seemed to be tired and stopped.
When the servant saw Zhan coming over, she respectfully bowed and greeted him, “Mr Zhan.”
Zhan nodded gently, “Open the door.”
Shenhai made the grounding pretty formal. He locked Zanilla’s door and even asked the servants to guard.
The servant opened the door and Zhan walked in.
Zanilla sat on the sofa with her phone in her hand. Maybe because she was reading something interesting, she was smiling sweetly at this moment, and she didn’t even notice Zhan walking in.
Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly and said indifferently, “What made you so happy?”
Zanilla was so devoted that Zhan’s voice caught her off guard.
Only then did she look at Zhan with a fierce expression, “Are you a ghost? Don’t you make a sound when you come in?”
Zhan did not say anything and walked straight to her.
Zanilla put down her phone and said proudly, “Oh, it’s you, bitch. You actually dare to go out now, Aren’t you afraid of being hit to death by rotten eggs?”
After Zanilla finished speaking, she even curled her lips proudly. The expression on her face also became a little dark.
“Yes, that’s why I came to find you.” Zhan’s lips curled up, but he didn’t smile, He was cold and calm, not afraid at all.
What Zanilla hated the most was Zhan’s appearance of never being defeated.
She wanted to see Zhan collapse and go crazy.
“You are really shameless. You can still act like nothing happened while being called the home-wrecker.” Zanilla gritted her teeth.
Zanilla sat on the sofa and Zhan stood in front of her.
He looked down at her condescendingly, “Tell me about the photo of the marriage certificate.”
When he looked down at Zanilla from above, his aura was extremely imposing.
Zanilla was about to tell the truth unconsciously, “It is….”
Suddenly, she realized that she was talking to Zhan.
Why should she tell Zhan the truth? Was she crazy?
“Anyway, you just need to know that the photo of the marriage certificate is real. And you, Zhan, have always been the HOME-WRECKER!” Zanilla deliberately emphasized her last sentence.
Zhan’s expression did not change, but his hands already curled into fists,”I know it even if you don’t tell me.”
Zhan took a deep breath and calmed down a little, “It was Haoxuan who gave it to you.”
Zanilla hurriedly explained, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Haoxuans is in the show business, How did he get that kind of picture? You are overthinking.”
No one dared to look into the eyes of others when they were lying.
Zanilla was the same.
Zhan felt that he was wrong. Nothing in this world was impossible.
Back then, he felt that a person like Haoxuan would definitely not fall for Zanilla.
But in the end, Haoxuan plotted with Zanilla against him and Yibo.
Zhan glanced at her and sat down opposite her, saying indifferently, “It seems that Haoxuan is not so nice to you. You don’t even know his true identity.”
He noticed that whenever he mentioned Haoxuan, Zanilla would become very nervous.
It seemed that Zanilla truly loved Haoxuans.
In the past, Jason and other men had never made Zanilla so nervous.
“This is my room, Get out of here immediately.” Zanilla pointed at the door and shouted at Zhan.
Zhan did not show the slightest anger. He stood up and said, “Goodbye then.”
He had come here today only to confirm whether Zanilla and Haoxuans had worked together to do this.
Since he already knew the answer, there was no point in staying any longer.
The photograph of the marriage certificate must have been given to Zanilla by Haoxuan’s. She was used by Haoxuan.
Zhan walked out of Zanilla’s room and planned to call Yibo as he walked downstairs.
However, before he could get through, he saw Haoxuan walking towards the hall at the corner of the stairs.
He subconsciously cut off the phone call and fixed his gaze on Haoxuans.
Haoxuan was dressed in a well-pasted grey suit. He looked a little thin, with a gentle expression on his face. The curves of his lips seemed to have been carefully designed. He was like a person walking out of a movie poster, elegant and exclusive.
If all of this hadn’t happened, Zhan would still be his fan, Probably because Zhan’s gaze was too obvious, Haoxuan noticed him.
The moment their eyes met, the gentle expression on Haoxuans face seemed to be cracking.
His smile stiffened, but in just a few seconds, he returned to normal.
Shenhai was still in the hall, Haoxuan looked away and walked towards Shenhai with a gentle attitude, “Mr. Xiao.”
Shenhai smiled and said, “Mr. Wen, please take a seat.”
When Zhan went downstairs, Shenhai and Haoxuan were chatting on the sofa.
Zhan resisted the impulse to rush over and question him with great effort.
Jingtong came out of somewhere and pulled Zhan into a room.
She looked at the door for a while before closing it and pulling Zhan into the room, “What’s going on? Why is your sister’s name on the marriage certificate?”
Zhan looked at Jingtong in surprise.
Would she, his mother, finally care about him?
However, the next second, Jingtong ruined his fantasy.
“If you had given back the position as the Young Mistress of the Wang’s to Zanilla, all of this wouldn’t happen today. But you are so greedy. Now Zanilla was grounded. How pitiful….”
Jingtong chatted on and on for a long time before finally saying worriedly, “I wonder if this matter will affect the company….”
Zhan couldn’t help but sneer. His voice was exceptionally cold, “Miss Jingtong, what’s wrong with you? If you are insane, go to the psychiatric department of the hospital. Don’t push my limits here. I’ve had enough.”
The design of the Xiao mansion was not bad. Almost every room was brightly lit by the sunshine, with windows towards both north and south.
It was so bright that Zhan’s expression was more than clear.
Jingtong clearly saw the boredom and tiredness, as well as calmness after disappointment on Zhan’s face.
She couldn’t believe that Zhan would say something like that, “Zhan? What’s wrong with you?”
“How can you talk to mom like this?” Jingtong frowned. She thought that she had heard it wrong just now.
She reached out for Zhan’s arm, “I know that you are in a bad mood because of the recent incident, but it was indeed your fault….”
“How did I talk to you?” Zhan quietly took two steps back and avoided Jingtong’s grasp. “Zanilla called you a dog of the Xiao’s. Aren’t you still pleasing her? I’m just telling the truth, and can’t you stand it anymore?”
Jingtong’s expression changed slightly. “Zanilla is young and not mature. It’s normal for her to lose her temper occasionally.”
Zhan said coldly, “I’m younger than her.”
Jingtong was out of words for a moment. Zhan had always listened to her. She was already unhappy when Zhan suddenly spoke to her like that.
At this moment, her face turned pale. She said sternly, “Why are you comparing with her? I tried so hard to please them just in order to get us a firm foothold in Xiao’s.”
Zhan corrected her without any expression, “It’s for not us. It’s for yourself.”
Jingtong was still trying to say something.
Zhan just interrupted her, “Don’t tell me any more nonsense about mother and daughter. I don’t want to hear it anymore, nor do I need to excuse Zanilla. Remember, it was you who knelt down and begged me to marry into the Wangs in place of her.”
Zhan just threw the handle after the blade.
Yibo gave Haoxuan the chances again and again, even at the price of risking him, but in the end, he became a home-wrecker for that.
Was he different from Yibo?
He gave Jingtong the chances again and again, but in the end, he received more and deeper injuries from Jingtong.
Humans were innately evil in some ways. Even if you tried to correct them, it was still in vain.
This was what happened between him and Jingtong.
It was probably the same between Yibo and Haoxuan.
The difference was that Jingtong didn’t hurt anyone except him, since he was the one to give Jingtong the chances.
Haoxuan, however, pointed the finger at him.
In the match between Haoxuan and Yibo, he became the victim.
Zhan took a deep breath and said, “Since the day I agreed to marry into the Wangs, the mother-son relationship between us has been over. Afterwards, you and Zanilla planned the kidnapping. I handed over the black card to save you without any hesitation because I wanted to give you the last chance.”
“You probably don’t know what Zanilla wanted those two kidnappers to do to me after you left. They wanted to…” Zhan turned around, his almond-like eyes flashing with a strange light, “rape me first and then kill me.”
Jingtong’s pupils contracted abruptly in an instant, and she trembled violently.
Zhan smiled with satisfaction and slowly walked out.
Jingtong watched Zhan walk to the door, farther and farther away from her sense of panic arose in her heart.
She subconsciously took two steps forward and shouted, “Zhan!”
Zhan didn’t seem to hear her and went straight out.
The door was shut and the room was quiet.
Jingtong stood in the middle of the room with a long face.
Was she really wrong?
But, what went wrong?
Weren’t all stepmothers supposed to treat their step-sons and step-daughters better like her?
Zhan was her biological son. No matter how she treated Zhan, this fact couldn’t be changed.
Yeah, that was it.
Zhan said those words today because he was muddled by what had happened in the past two days.
No matter what, she was Zhan’s biological mother.
It was impossible for Zhan to deny it.
With this thought, Jingtong’s expression returned to normal.
In the past, Zhan had listened to her for so many years, but now, he was just a little angry. He would be fine soon, just like before.
