Chapter 352: Blown Up
“Yeah, do I still love Wei Zhou? Do I still have feelings for him?” Su Yan asked herself in her heart.
After all, Wei Zhou was the person she had liked since she was young. Su Yan looked at her phone, and her eyes gradually became hollow. She couldn’t see her own feelings clearly, nor could she get any answers. Wei Zhou was her first love, and he was also the man she would never forget.
Su Yan didn’t answer Tang Yitong’s question because she didn’t have an answer either. As a wave of sleepiness swept over her, she said, “Let’s not talk about it anymore. I’m a little tired. I want to sleep early. Goodnight.”
Tang Yitong replied, “Alright, I’ll hang up then.”
Looking at the call that was hung up, Su Yan recalled the scene at the banquet earlier. In fact, Wei Zhou’s public confession had really shocked her. It had indeed caused a ripple in her heart, but so what even if it was a confession. She had sacrificed so much and suffered for three years. As if Wei Zhou’s confession could erase all of that?!!
How was that possible?! Everyone had to pay the price for what they had done. She had to be responsible after marrying into the Wei family, so she was willing to suffer for three years and be a silly wife for three years. Wei Zhou had treated her so badly back then, so he had to pay the price for his own actions. One learned from one’s mistakes. Through this failed marriage, she had learned her lesson. She would no longer be impulsive about relationships, because the pain was engraved in her bones. The sadness had left her covered in bruises.
..
The next day, Su Yan opened her eyes and heard light rain outside. The sky was very dark and the atmosphere was very gloomy. It was a bit like how she was feeling right now.
She logged into Weibo to take a look. As expected, the event from yesterday’s banquet was on the trending searches. The trending searches instantly blew up on the entire internet. Excellent Era Corporation’s CEO, Wei Zhou, and North Stream Real Estate Group’s CEO, Xia Zijian, two young entrepreneurs, became the highlight of the banquet because they were fighting over a woman. The netizens’comments were even more varied. Some cursed, some blessed, and there were even people who said that Su Yan and Lan Jian were quite compatible..
The fight between the big shots over a woman went viral. When Xia Zijian attended the groundbreaking ceremony this morning, he was even asked by a reporter, “CEO Xia, there are rumors online that you and Excellent Era Corporation’s CEO Wei were quarreling over Su Yan. Is this true? Are you really courting Wei Zhou’s ex-wife, Su Yan?”
Xia Zijian said firmly, “Of course. I personally admire Miss Su Yan. I also adore her very much. Just as you said, Su Yan is Wei Zhou’s ex-wife. She’s already single. There’s no problem for me to pursue her, right?”
On the other side, Xia Zijian had just admitted to the media that he liked Su Yan. The video of Xia Jiang, who was far away in Hong Kong attending the National Real Estate Industry Forum, being interviewed by the reporters was also posted online.
The reporter asked, “President Xia, may I ask what you think about Xia Zijian expressing that he likes Su Yan and is pursuing her?”
Faced with this question, Xia Jiang, in contrast to the way he always scolded his son Xia Zijian, said, “My son is already an adult. I can interfere with work matters, but emotional matters are his own business. As for Miss Su Yan, I have also heard of her. If my son can win her over, then I really have to applaud.”
When Xia Jiang said this, his old face was full of sincerity and didn’t have the slightest sign of mere courtesy. Moreover, with his status and strength, there was no need for him to lie. Even if he criticized anyone, no one could do anything to him.
The reporters were shocked. They never expected Xia Jiang to have such a high opinion of Su Yan. Moreover, he had changed his usual attitude and supported his son, Xia Zijian, to pursue Su Yan. Hence, another reporter asked, “President Xia, Miss Su Yan has already been divorced once. If Xia Zijian succeeds in pursuing her, would you mind?”
Upon hearing this question, Xia Jiang pondered for a moment and said, “I think that by asking this question, you are more or less biased against Miss Su Yan for being a divorced women. What era is it now? Do you still think that it’s the old society where divorced women can’t pursue happiness? A divorced woman can’t marry again? So what if Miss Su has been divorced? Will this affect her being a good daughter-in-law and a good mother?”
Xia Jiang’s interview had caused a huge sensation on the internet. Everyone had no choice but to listen to the words of this business tycoon. Some netizens even emphasized the words “divorced women can also pursue happiness” and posted them on the forum. After the night, the top three trending search results on Weibo were all related to Su Yan. As for her, she was eating her breakfast calmly.
