Chapter 1096: Engagement
The last time she saw Du Ze, he was so thin that he looked like he would collapse if a gust of wind blew on him, he would topple over. Regardless of whether it was Dongyou Country or Xiyou Country, his efforts were all in vain.
Even until today, Shen Xiaoxiao did not ask about Dongyou Country. They were all managed by professional assistants that Yan Kuan had found. As for the Xiyou Country, they had long been shut down by Liu Yufei and the others.
However, Du Ze really had some ability. After Xiyou Country and Dongyou Country had no place for him, he directly entered the world’s largest software development company as an ordinary programmer. It was said that he had already reached the position of director of the East China region.
This ability was absolutely unquestionable in the eyes of ordinary people.
Shen Xiaoxiao had met him at the Shen Enterprise. After all, their current relationship was not that good when they met outside. Meeting him in the office also prevented him from having any unnecessary thoughts.
Du Ze was much more plump and stronger than the last time they met. As long as he did not touch Liu Yufei, it would not be difficult to raise this man back up. At least the current Du Ze was more and more similar to the high-spirited Du Ze from back then.
“Xiaoxiao, long time no see.”
Du Ze’s eyes were calm and unpredictable. At least Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t see any hint of friendship or emotion. This was very good. At least they could have a good talk without worrying too much. However, whether Du Ze really returned to his usual state or pretended to be like this, at least Shen Xiaoxiao was very satisfied with his current state.
“Long time no see.”
“Did you come here to see me for something?”
“Yes. Our company sent me back to our country to be the vanguard, so I specially came to visit you.”
“Then congratulations. The pioneering bull has always been a hero. Your future is just around the corner.”
After Shen Xiaoxiao said this, Du Ze smiled strangely and said,”I didn’t expect that one day, our conversation would actually become so polite.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned. She had just said that it was good for them to be polite, but Du Ze said that. What was he trying to say?
“Sometimes, being polite has its benefits, but it’s nice to see you again.”
“Me too. I’m very happy to see Xiaoxiao again.”
Du Ze suddenly paused, then looked at Shen Xiaoxiao seriously and said,”Xiaoxiao, I’m sorry. For the child and for you. I’m sorry.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment. She did not expect Du Ze to apologize to her at this time because the apology had been delayed for five years. She was not used to hearing it now.
“It’s okay. After all, you saved my child’s life and mine. I also owe you a thank you for this.”
Du Ze heaved a sigh of relief as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden. Then, he solemnly handed over an invitation letter and said,”If you didn’t forgive me, I don’t think I would dare to take out this invitation letter. I hope Xiaoxiao will attend my engagement ceremony.”
“Engagement ceremony?”
“Yes, engagement ceremony.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was really surprised because she didn’t expect Du Ze to give her such a gift when they met again. However, marriage was good. It was also a good story for Du Ze to meet a partner who cared about him.
“Eh, in A City? The day after tomorrow?”
“Yes, my fiancée is from A City. I hope Xiaoxiao will come to attend the engagement ceremony as soon as possible.”
“I will definitely be there, Du Ze. It’s great that you can live a good life.”
“Yes, yes. I also think that it’s great now. It’s really great.”
The two looked at each other and smiled. It was like a smile to bury the hatchet. The past was always fleeting.
“You said Du Ze invited you to attend the engagement ceremony?” Yan Kuan took off his clothes and listened to Shen Xiaoxiao’s words.
“Yes, he personally sent the invitation over. I’ve already agreed to it. If you’re not free, I can go by myself.”
“Who said I’m not free? I’ll go with you. Coincidentally, A City is about to issue a new gambling card. I’m going over too. It’s a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.”
“Alright.”
Two days later.
“The weather here is warmer. It’s not bad to come here in winter.”
“Yes, it’s warmer. But are you sure that Little Treasure will be back tomorrow? Will he be with the Heavenly Soldier tomorrow?”
Xiaoxiao asked Yan Kuan as she helped Da Bao put on her clothes.
Yan Kuan smiled and pinched Shen Xiaoxiao’s face.
“You’ve asked more than 50 times in the past three days. Yes, they will arrive tomorrow. Xiaoxiao, the children will grow up sooner or later. One day, when they grow up and have their own children and families, are you still unwilling to let them go?”
“That will be many years from now. I won’t consider it for now. The children are not even six years old yet. I’m not as easy-going as you.”
Even though that was the case, Shen Xiaoxiao understood what Yan Kuan meant. The child would grow up sooner or later. Furthermore, Little Treasure and Da Bao would mature faster than other children of the same age.
“Alright, I’ll pack up. You go and change your clothes. Aren’t you going to attend his engagement? Go and pack up. There’s no time left.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the time and indeed, she could not find out. She immediately went to change into a light blue dress.
“I still don’t know who Du Ze’s fiancée is. Do you, the omniscient Black Emperor, know who it is?”
“Wang Yuan, the youngest daughter of the steel boss of A City, Wang Zichun.”
“Steel boss?”
“Yes, steel boss. But Wang Yuan is also not bad.”
To be able to say the word “not bad” from Yan Kuan’s mouth, it could be seen that the girl was really not bad. It was just that she did not know what kind of person she was. Yan Kuan praised her and Du Ze liked her.
“It’s really rare to hear the word ‘not bad’ from your mouth.”
“How rare is it? Haven’t I always praised you for being not bad? I said that Wang Yuan is also a doctor without borders, but she has returned because of her injury. Now, she’s even become Du Ze’s partner.”
“She’s a doctor?”
“Yes, Wang Yuan is also a young daughter. All she needs to do is inherit a large sum of money. In the future, her life will be very comfortable. Her family’s style is not bad. Wang Zichun’s son, Wang Xiao, is also a talent. Compared to the other rich second-generations, he can be considered to be outstanding.”
She swept her eyebrows lightly and paired it with a set of diamond jewelry. It was noble and elegant. Yan Kuan’s heart began to ache as he looked at it. Why was this little fairy’s figure getting better and better now? She looked good in everything. It was definitely because of him, it must be. Yes, it must be.
“What are you looking at? Are you coming?”
“I don’t want to go anymore.”
Shen Xiaoxiao stopped putting on her shoes. What was wrong with him? He didn’t want to go? He didn’t want to go at this time?
“Are you sure you don’t want to go? Then I’ll go. When there’s a handsome guy dancing or something, I won’t refuse.”
“Shen Xiaoxiao, don’t you dare!”
“You can try if I dare. Without you, of course I want to move around freely.”
“You, hmph, I think you need to be taught a lesson.”
A certain wolf simply stood up and tore the blue dress that revealed its back into pieces.
“B*stard, my dress...”
