Zhutian Films: Starting with the Story of Roses

Chapter 21 Guan Zhizhi Keeps the Appointment

Meanwhile, on the other side, after the turmoil of that night, Huang's parents were completely enraged.

According to Huang Jianzhi and Wu Yuejiang, although Huang Yimei was not at fault, she did not know how to avoid suspicion and clearly lacked a sense of propriety when dealing with personal relationships.

"I never intended to accept that necklace. Zhou Shihui said it was a gift from my master to his apprentice upon joining the company, so I reluctantly accepted it."

"If I had known he had those kinds of feelings for me, I would never have gone out to eat with him, watch movies with him, or accept his gifts."

"Your Honors, Rose is innocent!"

The elderly couple issued a stern order, forcing Huang Yimei to stay home and reflect on her actions, and warning Huang Zhenhua that he must not let her out without permission.

"They keep causing trouble every few days!"

"Huang Zhenhua, if you dare to secretly let her out, I'll lock you up tomorrow!"

Hearing his mother's blunt threat, Huang Zhenhua felt like crying. At the age of thirty, he was still being threatened like this by Wu Yuejiang.

He could only advise his sister that once their parents calmed down, the matter would be dropped, and Rose should stay in her room for a couple more days.

However, Huang Yimei, who has always been free-spirited, lively and cheerful, could not tolerate such constraints and chose to "escape" by jumping out of the window the next morning.

That morning, Huang Zhenhua was stunned to see his younger sister at the architecture institute. Huang Yimei proudly tilted her head back and said, "I must have been a female knight-errant in my past life!"

As a result, the heroine encountered misfortune that morning.

When Zhou Shihui, dressed in a suit and tie and holding flowers, appeared in front of Huang Yimei, she felt that even her enemies would have to let go of their resentment upon seeing this scene.

How could you be so eager to chase after me and kill me?

Zhou Shihui confessed his love to Huang Yimei, his tone exceptionally affectionate: "Rose, actually, I fell in love with you from the very first moment I saw you."

"I can't lie to my heart, so I've made things clear with Rosamund Kwan that we've broken up, and now I want to be with you."

"Would you like to?"

Huang Yimei forced an ugly smile, even beginning to regret escaping from her home that morning. She shook her head at Zhou Shihui: "I don't want to."

"I'll complete my resignation procedures in the next couple of days, and let's not contact each other again."

Zhou Shihui was struck dumb. This was completely different from what he had imagined. The rose he had been longing for had suddenly changed her attitude towards him.

He didn't understand why.

Huang Zhenhua sighed softly and explained the situation to his good friend: "The men pursuing my sister could line up from Chaoyang to Langfang. What were you thinking?"

Huang Zhenhua was even more confused.

Instead of cherishing his seven-year relationship with Guan Zhizhi, Zhou Shihui managed to cause such a mess just when they were about to get married.

"Trying to draw water with a bamboo basket is all for naught."

Why bother?

.......

After moving out, Guan Zhizhi completely erased all memories related to Zhou Shihui, sealing away all the sweetness and bitterness of the past, and officially moved out.

This was a quiet and thorough farewell.

In this seven-year relationship, she was docile and sensible, always going along with Zhou Shihui, only to be betrayed by him in return.

"Sisters."

"I'll treat you to a meal in a while. I just want to be alone for the next few days. Don't worry, I'm fine, everything will be alright."

"Yes, you don't need to worry about me."

Guan Zhizhi scrolled through her phone's contacts, completely blocking Zhou Shihui's number, and then found the new number that had just been entered and dialed it.

Chen Yang's voice rang out.

"Miss Guan, what can I do for you?"

"Do you have time right now? Come out and go shopping, have dinner, and watch a movie with me. What's your daily rate? I can pay you by the hour."

Hearing that Guan Zhizhi sounded quite happy, Chen Yang smiled and asked, "Tell me first, what exactly do you want me to do? Other projects will require extra pay."

Guan Zhizhi thought carefully and said, "During the day we'll eat and go shopping, and at night we'll drink and play cards. As for other activities, we'll decide for now."

She did want to be alone, but thinking about the relaxed atmosphere of her conversation with Chen Yang in the car that night, she suddenly felt that asking him out to hang out might be a good idea.

Chen Yang actually has free time.

After successfully securing Mr. Teng's team, the entire project for the Sino-French exchange exhibition was finalized, and all that remained was to proceed with the process step by step.

At Qingting Company, Chen Yang doesn't need to keep an eye on the project's progress. After all, being a good scumbag is the right thing to do, and he can't let this lousy job interfere with it.

"OK."

"Then I'll come find you at noon."

Chen Yang called his assistant, Han Ying, to his office.

Since the project was finalized, this woman's makeup and attire have become more exquisite every day, and she intentionally or unintentionally creates physical contact with Chen Yang.

That little Han is really dishonest.

Chen Yang told Han Ying that he had to meet with a client in the afternoon: "If there's anything important at the company, postpone it until tomorrow morning."

Han Ying asked, "Do you need someone to accompany you?"

Chen Yang shook his head: "No need."

The woman felt a wave of disappointment.

At noon, Chen Yang arrived as scheduled.

Guan Zhizhi has been immersed in the grief of the breakup these days, and later she was preparing for moving, so she didn't dress up properly.

Today she dressed up carefully, her base makeup was clear and fair, concealing her haggard appearance of the past few days. Her makeup was neither gaudy nor vulgar, but it was exceptionally alluring.

"Wearing such red?" Chen Yang looked at Guan Zhizhi's bright red fitted halter dress. Her makeup, combined with the red dress, made her look exceptionally flamboyant.

Guan Zhizhi nodded with a smile.

"I'm in a good mood."

"Of course you have to wear red."

"let's go."

"Oh right, you still haven't told me how much your hourly wage is?"

Chen Yang laughed and said, "Are you really going to pay me? My job is special, after all, so the price during the day is different from the price at night."

Guan Zhizhi rolled her eyes at Chen Yang with a captivating charm: "Are you really worried I'll take advantage of you?"

The two went to a very authentic Western restaurant. Under Chen Yang's careful guidance, Guan Zhizhi quickly learned to cut steak with elegant manners.

She said truthfully, "I always thought that as long as it could be cut open, it was fine. I didn't expect there to be so many intricacies involved."

Chen Yang nodded and said truthfully, "Actually, these so-called table manners are all just for show. At the table, what matters is status, not etiquette."

The two spent the entire afternoon together, strolling side by side through Beijing's bustling commercial districts.

Unlike her past relationships where she was submissive and accommodating, this time Kwan Chi-chi was completely relaxed, not needing to consider any cost-effectiveness, and only seeking happiness.

She strolls around freely, picking out clothes as she pleases. She tries on styles she likes and buys accessories that catch her eye, without needing to worry about marriage or the future. She lives a carefree life.

"I used to feel guilty when I bought things, even if I really liked them, I would always think that I would have many other expenses in the future, so I couldn't bear to buy anything."

In the end, they got nothing.

"Do you think I'm being silly?"

Chen Yang shook his head and said seriously, "There is no perfect choice in this world, only the most suitable one. You have to accept yourself at different stages of your life."

Guan Zhizhi slowly let go of her gloom and defensiveness, and a knowing smile appeared on her face after a long time: "You must have lied to quite a few girls."

"Is it because of your appearance?"

"Haha, yes."
