The Beautiful County Magistrate
Chapter 898
CHAPTER 898: CHAPTER 898
Listening to Gao Mei’s repentant words, Zhu Yue couldn’t help but cry, moved to tears.
She thought she was someone without affection, that her family was willing to sacrifice her for her brother Zhu Liang who wanted to kill her. Now, she understood it wasn’t like that.
Listening to Gao Mei’s repentance, Zhu Yue felt warm inside and was immensely touched. She suddenly hugged Gao Mei and started crying loudly, moved to tears.
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly, calming down after a while.
Gao Mei wiped her tears and said softly, "Alright, I’ve told you everything, you should leave quickly. Don’t get involved in this matter."
Zhu Yue said, "No, I’m not leaving. Mom, I know, no matter how bad my brother is, he’s still my brother. You don’t want a parent to bury their child while they’re still young. If worse comes to worst, I’ll help you; I can help save his life, but that’s all I can do."
Gao Mei was puzzled upon hearing this, how to help? "What do you mean?"
Zhu Yue explained, "I mean, I’m going to follow Xu Qianli. I’ve already agreed to be his girlfriend, and I won’t go back on my word. I’ll be with him for life. As long as I’m with him, sister-in-law won’t have second thoughts, she won’t abandon the plan out of guilt to accompany Bai Family’s Grandson-in-law, saving my brother’s life, and you won’t have to bury your young child. Isn’t that a happy ending?"
"No, that’s too much for you, especially when you’re the victim. Your brother hired a killer to kill you, and now I want you to sacrifice yourself to save him. That’s not right, it can’t happen. Listen to me, don’t get involved, pretend you know nothing."
Gao Mei was really heartbroken for Zhu Yue, her precious daughter who nearly got killed by Zhu Liang. Now, she had to sacrifice her happiness for Zhu Liang, this just couldn’t happen.
Fearing that Zhu Yue might become stubborn, Gao Mei whispered, "It’s one thing to be with another man, but Xu Qianli is not just any man. He’s too strong, I’m afraid you can’t handle him. That guy is scarier than a tiger and stronger than a mule. You can’t deal with him."
Mentioning this, Gao Mei felt embarrassed. Saying this was almost confessing her relationship with Xu Qianli; otherwise, how could she know so much? She didn’t know how Zhu Yue would view her.
Zhu Yue’s face also flushed, thinking that Xu Qianli really was that intimidating.
Pouting her red lips, Zhu Yue said softly, "I’m not afraid. No matter how strong he is, he’s just a man. We women can give birth to children, why fear one man? Besides, he has other girlfriends to share the burden, there’s nothing to fear. What’s most important is that I’ve already fallen for him. I want to be with him."
What, fallen for Xu Qianli, want to be with him?
Gao Mei shook her head, what kind of situation is this?
"Silly girl, you’ve only met him once, how could you fall for him? Love at first sight isn’t that mysterious. Emotions are a lifetime matter, you can’t make a choice impulsively. Be careful, you might regret it later."
"Listen to me, pretend nothing happened today. That guy is much scarier than you imagine, being with him will be very tough."
Her precious daughter might not be loved by others, but Gao Mei cherished her. Thinking about how intimidating Xu Qianli was made her worry about Zhu Yue, even persuading her to give up.
Zhu Yue said, "Alright, stop persuading me, I’ve already decided, I won’t change my mind. I’ve set my heart on him for life. Rest assured, I won’t regret it; this choice is definitely the right one. Moreover, I think Xu Qianli is wonderful. I really like him; without him, I don’t think I’ll ever like another man. Mom, don’t persuade me, I rarely fall for someone, I won’t change my mind."
"Oh, you are so stubborn, but you got this from me. We both are such women. Alright, since you’ve decided, I won’t say anything more. I hope Xu Qianli treats you well and cherishes you."
"Now that you have a boyfriend, you’re an adult. You should control your temper and not get angry at random. When you two get along, treat each other well. Also, Xu Qianli has other women, you should think about how to deal with them."
"His official girlfriend is Ding Meixin. I’ve already found out: she’s a teacher at a middle school in Qingshan Town, pretty and gentle, easy-going, and easy to get along with. Considering other women, we’ll talk about them later."
Since Zhu Yue was determined, Gao Mei stopped persuading her and turned to other matters.
This silly daughter was really stubborn. Despite it being their first meeting, she liked Xu Qianli so much she was willing to be with him for life, what a situation!
On another thought, maybe she was doing it for her mother?
Actually, she might not truly like Xu Qianli. She just didn’t want her mother to bury her young child, so she chose to follow Xu Qianli to save Zhu Liang’s life.
Thinking of this possibility, understanding Zhu Yue’s intentions made Gao Mei even more moved and guilty.
She was wrong, really wrong, she shouldn’t have dragged Zhu Yue into this for Zhu Liang.
If she had known things would turn out like this, she wouldn’t have done it, but it’s too late to regret now.
Now that things have developed to this point, she can only hope Xu Qianli will treat Zhu Yue well and take good care of her.
The two looked at each other, faces full of tears, returning to the private room like this wouldn’t be suitable. They quickly went to the restroom together, busy washing their faces and touching up their makeup, before returning prettily dressed.
Xu Qianli was having a great time eating and drinking with several beauties.
On a street not far from the restaurant, more than a dozen cars were parked, and many people got out.
Leading them was Fang Zihao, who had previously failed to flirt with Lan Mengni and Gao Mei at the airport and was dealt with by Xu Qianli.
Beside him was a group, including bodyguards and Hai City’s young masters, who quickly crowded around to join the fun upon hearing Fang Zihao was in the city.
Standing next to Fang Zihao was a tall, slender man about twenty-five or twenty-six, glaring towards the restaurant and saying to Fang Zihao, "Young Master Fang, the scoundrel who provoked you is in there eating? What’s his background, how dare he provoke Young Master Fang? Does he have three heads and six arms?"
"If he had three heads and six arms, I’d accept it and swallow my anger. But that boy’s no formidable figure; he’s just a damn Deputy County Magistrate from a small county!"
In a short time, Fang Zihao had investigated Xu Qianli’s background. Thinking of how a big deal like himself got handled by such trash made him furious, flames of anger shot to his head.
