Chapter 111 Brothers

  Avoid long nights and many dreams. Only then did Zheng Jie bring up Zhang Ziheng's sharp words: "It's better to get things done early, who knows what will happen in the future." As they left the Civil Affairs Bureau, Zhang Ziheng looked at the photo on their marriage certificate, shook his head and smiled, saying: "Zheng Jie, look"

  "Huh? What did you just call me? Don't forget, we've already made a deal online, are you trying to back out now?" Zheng Jie said with a slanted gaze and a smile.

  Zhang Ziheng smiled awkwardly and said: "Wife, is that enough? Look, I've already registered with you, shouldn't..."

  "What's going on? What do you want to say? What do you want to do? What are you plotting? You men are all the same, not a single good one among you." Zheng Jie said with a frown.

  Zhang Ziheng was left speechless by her, feeling both puzzled and wronged. "Zheng" wife, I haven't even said anything yet, why are you scolding me for no reason? Besides, you say that we men are all bad, so why were you in such a hurry to marry me?"

  "Oh dear, you've learned to be arrogant, looks like I need to buy a flat-bottomed pan." Zheng Jie said as she pinched Zhang Ziheng's ear.

  "Ow, ow, gently, it hurts! Wife, I'm not Grey Wolf!"

  The formalities are finally completed, and next is the wedding. Of course, Zhang Ziheng will not participate in this matter, he is most afraid of trouble, so everything is left to Zheng Jie alone to handle.

  While Zheng Jie was busy with the wedding, Zhang Ziheng took out his mobile phone and made a call to Wang Xue. Unexpectedly, he received another call from Zhang Ziheng soon after, and Wang Xue was overjoyed, repeatedly asking him if he had made a decision.

  This made Zhang Ziheng speechless. After thinking for half a day, Zhang Ziheng finally spoke up and said: "I've already decided to have the surgery."

  "Really? Hehe, Ziheng," I said. "Don't worry, I've already prepared the money and we can go to the hospital anytime." Wang Xue said with a happy smile.

  "Hey, you, don't get excited yet, listen to me finish. It's true, I am planning to have surgery, but, but Zheng Jie she..."

  "Huh? What's wrong with her? Did something happen?" Wang Xue asked.

  "It's like this, Zheng Jie didn't want me to be in contact with you at first, so she refused when I asked her online. But I begged her again and finally she agreed. However, there were three preconditions: the money would come from her, we couldn't meet again after that, and also...also...I had to immediately go through the marriage formalities with her." Zhang Ziheng said.

  As soon as this was said, Wang Xue was stunned on the spot and didn't speak for about three seconds before she opened her mouth to say: "You, you won't agree to it, will you?"

  "We just got our marriage certificate," said Zhang Ziheng.

  With a loud "boom", as if a thunderclap on a clear day, Wang Xue was stunned. She didn't dare to believe what she had just heard, and even more so, she didn't want to believe it. After a long while, she adjusted her mood and said: "Zi Heng, you, you stop messing around, it's not funny, hehe, really not funny. You're tricking me, right? It's not true, right?"

  "Uh" Sorry, I know you might be really hurt right now, but...

  "It's impossible," Wang Xue said, and then she burst into tears.

  Listening to Wang Xue's sobbing on the phone, Zhang Ziheng suddenly felt a strange heartache. "Hey, don't cry first, I know this is hard for you to accept, but...I...ah, I don't know what to say, sorry."

  "Don't say sorry to me, Ziheng! How could you do this?! You..." Wang Xue shouted loudly into the phone like a madwoman, with tears still hanging on her face. After a while, she continued: "In other words, even if you regain your memory, you're someone else's husband, right? No matter what, I won't take you back, okay?"

  "Me, oh, if you're feeling uncomfortable, just scold me a few times, I,"

  "What's the point of scolding you? Are you going to come back to me? Will you leave her? It's too late, everything is too late." Wang Xue then hung up the phone.

  Looking at the busy phone, Zhang Ziheng bit his lip, feeling a mix of emotions in his heart. Because Zheng Jie was going to be busy with wedding matters, he let Zhang Ziheng temporarily take over as general manager. The fact that they were about to get married was now known by everyone in the company, so seeing Zhang Ziheng sitting in the office, they could all understand.

  Zhang Ziheng has really undergone a transformation from a humble snake to a mighty dragon, suddenly rising from being the general manager's secretary to becoming the general manager's husband and also the son-in-law of the company's chairman. In the future, he will be the heir to the company, what a position! It's truly a meteoric rise, envied by many people.

  This afternoon, Zhang Ziheng was reading documents in the office. At this time, Fang Ruan's door suddenly opened from outside and two people walked in. Zhang Ziheng was slightly stunned, took a closer look, one of whom he recognized, seemed to be called Little Tian, and the other he didn't know.

  It was still that female employee who rushed in with a flustered expression and said: "**, should we call the police or not?"

  Zhang Ziheng glanced at them and shook his head, saying: "No need, it's nothing. You can go out."

  The female staff member nodded and turned around to leave.

  Xiao Tian walked up to Zhang Zi Heng and asked with a rural accent: "I heard from Gui Xue that you got married, is it true? With Jing?"

  "That's right," Zhang Ziheng said calmly.

  "I, Zi Heng, how could you do this? You said you would do this, and now that we're brothers, how are we going to face Wang Xue in the future?" The person next to him frowned and said.

  Zhang Ziheng looked at the man and said: "Sorry, may I ask who you are?"

  "Huh? What's wrong with you? Even if you've lost your memory, it's impossible that you can't recognize me. I'm Wen Cheng, take a good look, I'm telling you, don't say you don't know me or I'll get angry." Li Wen Cheng said seriously.

  Zhang Zi thought carefully and shook his head, saying: "Sorry, I really don't know you."

  "You"

  "Hey, hey, calm down, don't get angry. Xiao Tian quickly pulled Wen Cheng and continued to say: "Didn't I tell you? He's lost his memory, now he doesn't even know who his own mother is. Good grief, when we were about to come, I told you not to be impulsive, but look at you, you're the one who got impulsive first."

  Li Wencheng nodded and said, "Alright. Ziheng, you say you don't recognize me now, I won't blame you, after all we've been brothers for several years. But what about Wang Xue's side, how will you explain it?"

  Zhang Ziheng coughed lightly and said, "I've already made it clear to her, I think she'll understand me."

  "What? She would understand? If she could understand, then she wouldn't be Wang Xue." Li Wen Cheng shook his head and said. "Zi Heng, you..." Ah, never mind."

  "Hey, aren't you going to say anything? What's there to say, hurry up and speak. Everyone else is already married, if you don't speak now, are you waiting for him to have kids first?" Little Tian said with a frown.

  Li Wencheng sighed, sat down, took out a cigarette, and habitually handed it to Zhang Ziheng, saying: "How's it going? Still smoking?" Zhang Ziheng was taken aback for a moment. Then he took it over. Li Wencheng chuckled and said: "Hey, you really haven't forgotten."

  Three people lit their cigarettes, and Li Wencheng continued: "Ziheng, I"

  "Uh... will you call me?"

  "Listen, brother. From the moment we met in college, I've always considered you my best friend, and that hasn't changed to this day. If you can find your own happiness, then I'll support you no matter what decision you make in the end. But if you can't find your own happiness and instead muddle through the rest of your life, then as your brother, I despise you. Did you hear me? I look down on you." Li Wen Cheng said.

  Xiao Tian looked at him and said: "Hey, aren't you being a bit too much? You despise him, isn't that going too far?"

  Li Wencheng ignored him and continued, "Son, you might think you've found your happiness now, but what if you regret it later? There's no medicine for regret in this world. I heard from Wang Xue that you need to have surgery, and you're not using Wang Xue's money, but Zheng Jie's instead. Actually, none of this matters, as long as you can recover your memory. We'll give you the money even if we don't have it; we'll sell our pots and pans to make up for it. Isn't that right?"

  "Huh? Ah" Right, yeah, of course, but if it's too much, we can't make ends meet either, haha. Tian Hehe laughed and said.

  Li Wencheng gave him a white eye and continued to say: "Brother, do you know what I'm afraid of? I'm afraid that after you recover your memory, you'll definitely regret it, and then you won't know what to do. As your brother, I'm worried about you, do you understand?"

  Looking at the "stranger" in front of him, Zhang Ziheng suddenly felt a lump in his throat. How could there be someone who was willing to make sacrifices for others? The words from earlier had struck a chord deep within Zhang Ziheng's heart, making him feel an overwhelming urge to rush over and hug this person.

  "Uh, I don't know you, but what you just said...I, I...thank you, thank you." Zhang Ziheng said sincerely.

  Li Wencheng smiled slightly and said: "What are you thanking me for? If I were in your shoes, you would say the same thing, because I understand you, we're brothers."

  "Yes, son, **, we are brothers." Little Tian smiled and said.

  Li Wencheng wanted to extinguish the cigarette butt, but found that there was no ashtray on the office desk. He took out a cigarette box and extinguished it inside, then stood up and said: "When you get married, remember to tell your brothers about it. No matter what, this is also one of our times, we two must be present."

  Zhang Ziheng nodded and said, "Hmm, don't worry, we'll definitely send you an invitation at that time."

  "Alright, Xiaotian and I will prepare a big gift for you." After that, the two people left the office.

  After Xiaotian and the others left, Zhang Ziheng's heart couldn't calm down for a long time. What Li Wencheng said earlier really had a profound impact on him. Brothers, what are brothers? They're not people who appear when you're enjoying wealth and glory, but those who show up when you're struggling and down on your luck. That's what it means to be brothers. Being brothers is for this life, not the next.
