Chapter 410 Pretending to be poor was just to test you.
"What's up?"
Jiang He stopped and looked at Zhou Chen.
"Jiang He, let's get back together."
Zhou Chen looked sincerely into Jiang He's eyes.
I wanted to see anticipation and joy in Jiang He's eyes.
But all that was there was cold indifference.
He was very familiar with that look; he had used it countless times to scrutinize those who tried to get close to him.
"A good horse doesn't eat the grass it has already grazed."
Besides, you broke up with her because you were with a rich girl.
What? Isn't that your soulmate?
Why have you come back to see me now?
"Of course it's because the rich girl went bankrupt. A true love is no match for money. Now she's back to continue living off her husband."
Some onlookers in the crowd revealed the truth of the matter.
Even if Zhou Chen thought that way, he definitely couldn't say it out loud.
Jiang He is angry now because he broke up with her back then.
He definitely needs to be coaxed.
"Jiang He, I'm sorry."
I was out of my mind back then.
I don't actually like that woman at all.
She's fat and ugly, and so old. I already have you as my girlfriend, how could I possibly be interested in her?
That woman threw money at me back then.
My dad works at her dad's company.
She threatened to fire my dad if I didn't agree to her demands.
And she'll make you lose your job, so we can never recover.
Back then, you worked so hard in the deep sea every day, wasn't it all so you could get a permanent position as soon as possible?
I only broke up with you because I didn't want anything to happen to my dad and you.
That woman saw you that day.
If I don't break up with you, that woman says she'll never see you again.
Jiang He, I'm really scared.
How could children from poor families like us possibly stand up to them?
Fortunately, God had eyes, and her family went bankrupt.
She went bankrupt.
Jiang He, now no one is threatening me.
We can be together again.
Don't worry, this time, I will never let go of your hand again.
I've been unhappy every single day since we broke up.
I think about what you're doing every day.
Have you been eating properly?
Is your work going well?
I can't eat or sleep well every day.
I really can't live without you.
"I will face any difficulties with you in the future."
Zhou Chen pretended not to know Jiang He's current identity.
He knows nothing.
He wanted to get back together with Jiang He because he had always loved her.
It has nothing to do with anything else.
"Tch, all talk and no action. Not a single word of truth comes out of his mouth."
Zhou Chen's classmates all looked down on him.
Everyone knows that Jiang He is a true "rich, beautiful, and successful woman" now.
He even claimed he knew nothing. Is he lying to himself or to everyone else?
No wonder she can live off a woman; her ability to lie through her teeth is truly impressive.
Jiang He absolutely must not believe his nonsense.
"Oh, so you broke up with me back then because you cared about me."
Should I thank you?
"If it weren't for you, would I be being targeted by that young lady right now?"
Jiang He countered with a question.
Yes, yes, yes.
Jiang He, it's good that you know my feelings.
I definitely won't stand by and watch you be forced to drop out of school by that woman.
Jiang He, don't be afraid.
That woman no longer has that ability.
Seeing that Jiang He's attitude had changed, Zhou Chen knew that Jiang He liked him.
Jiang He nodded.
Should he drop out? Someone like Zhou Chen, graduating from this school would indeed be a disgrace to the alumni.
"Even so, I still can't agree to your request."
I have a lot of suitors now.
If you want to pursue me again, you'll have to wait in line.
After saying this, Jiang He left the scene.
"Jiang He, don't worry, I will definitely pursue you again."
I want you to see my true feelings.
Zhou Chen noticed that Jiang He didn't directly reject him.
I feel that I still have a lot of hope.
Jiang He must feel embarrassed because he was the one who broke up with her before.
So now I want to deliberately leave him hanging.
Zhou Chen needs to carefully plan how to pursue Jiang He again.
If you want to pursue Jiang He, you naturally need to prepare some gifts.
Buying gifts requires money.
The young lady has two bags.
Miss Bao has always been reluctant to sell those two bags.
I can't bear to sell it, nor can I bear to carry it.
It should be quite valuable.
He sold it; he should be able to get some money to buy Jiang He some gifts.
Zhou Chen pondered how to get the bag out.
When he goes out, the young lady always accompanies him.
When he went to work part-time, the young lady would sit beside him and watch him.
In other words, when he went back to school, the young lady was unwilling to come along.
However, Zhou Chen still didn't know whether the young lady was out shopping or staying at home.
He needed to find out the young lady's whereabouts before he could take out his bag.
This matter must not be known to the young lady.
And the boss can't find out either.
It didn't matter to Zhou's father.
These two people often wander around outside.
As long as I say I'm not coming home for dinner, those two will definitely go out to eat.
They'll have a few drinks and won't be back until very late.
As long as he times it right, he won't run into those two people at all.
If it really is that unfortunate, there are two people at home.
He then had Zhou's father take the boss out and send the others away.
At worst, we can just tell Zhou's father a little bit.
Zhou's father definitely supports him.
Back then, Zhou's father pushed himself out for the position of manager.
Now that I know he's managed to hook up with another rich and beautiful woman, I'll definitely support him wholeheartedly.
Zhou's father is only clinging to the boss and the young lady because he sees they still have exploitable value.
The most crucial thing is still the young lady's side.
Those two young ladies have always cherished them.
We definitely can't let him touch it.
Wait until he sells those two bags.
He wanted to prepare a gift immediately.
Then prepare a surprise for Jiang He.
As long as he gets back together with Jiang He, even if the young lady finds out, she won't be able to do anything to him.
When rivals meet, their eyes blaze with hatred.
Jiang He would naturally stand on his side.
Jiang He must also dislike the young lady.
Jiang He could make it impossible for the boss and the young lady to live here with just a few words.
However, one should strike while the iron is hot.
He also needed to seize the time and make a concerted effort to win Jiang He back.
If he keeps dragging his feet and doesn't take any action, Jiang He will definitely become even more hesitant about him.
Jiang He is not at school at other times.
She blocked him too, so he can't even ask her out anymore.
Jiang He happens to have a class tomorrow, so she will be coming to school.
If you miss tomorrow, you'll have to wait until next week.
It will be too late by then.
He absolutely must take action tomorrow.
Zhou Chen made a phone call to the young lady.
They wanted to find out where the young lady was and to inquire about her whereabouts.
The young lady did not answer the phone.
After two calls, the young lady finally answered the phone.
The background noise from the young lady's side is very loud.
The young lady's tone was also very unpleasant.
Where are you now? I've finished class and I'm heading home.
What would you like to eat tonight?
If the young lady cannot go back for the time being, he will hurry home to take action.
If the young lady wanted to act with him, he would lure her to another place to distract her from his plans.
If the young lady is at home, then invite her out.
The background noise from the young lady's side has decreased. Could she be in a bar or a karaoke bar?
"Zhou Chen, have you finished class?"
Did your classes go smoothly today?
Are you happy today?
The young lady's tone sounded a little strange.
He speaks, each word coming out one by one.
He seems a little unhappy.
Was it because he was in class and didn't spend time with her?
"I've finished my class, and I'll call you as soon as I'm done here."
The class went smoothly.
But I'm not very happy today because you're not here with me.
Zhou Chen already had experience with the young lady.
The young lady loved hearing him say those things.
Once they start showering you with sweet words, they get a little carried away.
"Really? So you really wanted me to be with you."
Then I'll go with you next time you go to school.
"No need, baby, I know you don't like going to my school."
I can't bear to see you unhappy.
I can go to school by myself.
The young lady wanted to accompany him to school, but of course that wouldn't work.
He was going to prepare a surprise for Jiang He.
If the young lady goes along...
It will turn into a battleground then.
Jiang He is probably even less likely to forgive him.
"I was just saying it casually."
I don't want to go to your school.
Zhou Chen noticed that the young lady's tone had improved considerably.
"What do you want to eat tonight? Do you want to eat out, or should I cook for you at home?"
"Then you can go home and make it for me. I'll go back and wait for you."
Over the phone, I heard the young lady telling someone that she wanted to go back.
"No, baby, there's a lot of smoke when we're cooking, don't let it bother you."
Are you out with your friends? Then keep playing. I'll call you home for dinner when I'm done.
The young lady paused for a moment.
"My friends and I are singing karaoke."
I hadn't seen my friend in a long time, and we happened to run into each other outside today.
My friend won't let me leave.
She said she was going to treat me to dinner later and wouldn't let me eat at home.
"Baby, it's rare to see you having so much fun with your friends."
Then you should enjoy having fun with your friends.
Why don't you go out to dinner with your friends tonight?
You should all have a good get-together.
Anyway, we see each other every day.
I'll cook you something delicious again tomorrow.
If you're not coming back, I'll just have dinner at the school cafeteria.
The young lady has been held back by her friend; it's truly a stroke of luck!
Zhou Chen was very excited.
I hope the young lady doesn't come home all night.
Zhou Chen called his father again.
They said they would eat dinner at school today, and the two of them would take care of themselves.
Mr. Zhou said he understood.
He and his boss are outside right now.
Don't worry about their dinner.
Mr. Zhou and his boss are having dinner right now.
Today they met an investor.
They said they knew them and wanted to help them start a new business.
They're having a really good time talking right now.
They didn't care whether Zhou Chen came back for dinner or not.
Zhou Chen immediately rushed back.
Now go back, get the bag, and then go to a secondhand store to trade it.
Zhou Chen had been to the secondhand store with the young lady several times already, so he was quite familiar with the place.
Zhou Chen's plan was excellent.
On the other side, the young lady hung up the phone and finally couldn't help but scold Zhou Chen harshly.
She was incredibly kind to Zhou Chen, treating him with the utmost sincerity.
She asked herself if she had ever wronged Zhou Chen.
When Zhou's father wanted the manager position, he took the initiative to bring Zhou Chen to meet her.
Zhou Chen has never said that he has a girlfriend.
Even when a suspected girlfriend appeared, she still asked Zhou Chen for confirmation.
Zhou Chen also firmly said no.
Zhou Chen said no, and she believed him.
As a result, he took the gift she gave him and immediately broke up with her.
A sudden, abrupt breakup.
If it were her, she definitely wouldn't accept it.
Even if her family goes bankrupt.
They still support the Zhou family father and son.
The result was that they raised an ungrateful child.
Zhou Chen actually slandered her like this outside.
That woman.
In Zhou Chen's words, she was that woman.
She was also a vicious woman.
When did she ever pressure Zhou Chen?
He pinned those unfounded accusations on her, and then went to deceive another girl.
When the young lady saw the chat logs and videos, she really couldn't believe it.
This is the Zhou Chen she knows, the Zhou Chen she likes.
She wanted to rush up to Zhou Chen and ask him why he did this.
However, Jiang He stopped her.
Verbal questioning is useless.
Such people need to be taught a real lesson.
The young lady accepted Jiang He's suggestion.
She wants Zhou Chen to pay the price he deserves.
Zhou Chen just said on the phone that he didn't want her to come home, so Zhou Chen must be doing something at home.
Then they went back too.
Let's see what Zhou Chen is up to.
Jiang He also knew that Zhou Chen had led the boss and Zhou's father outside.
I don't want them at home either.
The investor currently communicating with Boss Zhou's father was sent by Jiang He.
The two arrived at Zhou Chen's house first.
Jiang He placed a camera in her home.
The two hid and watched to see what Zhou Chen was up to.
After Zhou Chen arrived home, he called out to everyone to make sure no one was home.
They also checked the bathroom and every room.
Make sure no one is using the restroom or sleeping.
That way, he won't suddenly appear and be discovered halfway through.
Zhou Chen arrived at the young lady's room.
Headed straight for the young lady's wardrobe.
"What is Zhou Chen trying to do? Why is he opening my wardrobe?"
Zhou Chen had been looking around suspiciously ever since he entered the room.
It didn't feel like going home; it felt more like being a thief.
They're still going into her room.
The young lady's most treasured items are now all in the closet.
She tensed up when she saw Zhou Chen open her wardrobe.
She's sold off almost everything; only a few items remain, all of which are her treasures.
Jiang He reassured the young lady to calm down.
Zhou Chen rummaged through the wardrobe and found the two bags in the innermost drawer.
Besides those two bags, there was also a large handbag next to them.
That's perfect for stuffing those two bags into this big tote bag.
Zhou Chen grabbed his things and left quickly.
The young lady was furious when she saw Zhou Chen steal her two favorite bags.
Moreover, Zhou Chen stuffed the bag in haphazardly, deforming it.
That's too much, that's too much.
Zhou Chen deserves to die.
Pay her back for her bag.
Zhou Chenming knew how much she treasured those two bags; she had told him more than once that they were her most precious possessions.
Even if she had to go broke, she wouldn't sell those two bags.
Seeing this, the young lady's last bit of love for Zhou Chen vanished.
That scumbag.
He toyed with her feelings and even ruined her bag.
