Rich man’s one night stand

Aunt pulled Zoya to a corner and they sat down. This was a delicate side hall in a light blue color. It was a high-grade private and elegant room. The screen was embroidered with silk in the south of the River-the wintersweet flower. It was very beautiful.

It could be seen that it was the place where the host lived. It did not cater to the style of a soldier’s family, nor did it serve as a reception for guests.

“Zoya, I’ve just heard from your father that Ragib will come to pick you up.” Mrs. Zhan said, “I was still thinking about whether you will come back again. If you don’t come back, I’m afraid that the gown I’ve ordered for you won’t come in handy.”

After Mrs. Zhan finished, she motioned Aunt to send it to Zoya.

Aunt quickly brought the box of gowns over.

“Look, Ms. Zoya.” Aunt said, “It fits you very well. You’re so beautiful.”

Zoya was not interested. She took it and put it aside. “Really? Thank you, mother.”

A servant came in and served her hot tea to drive away the cold.

Zoya picked up the glass and took a sip. “You didn’t know I added more, did you? You told me that last night, didn’t you?”

Mrs. Zhan sighed.

“I’ve even prepared the dress.” Zoya said with a smile, “It means that when you said I could leave two days ago, you knew that I would not walk around, didn’t you? My smart mother.”

“No.” Mrs. Zhan explained, “I’m telling the truth. If you leave, I’ll bear the consequences. If your father is angry, he can find me to take responsibility… Although he may say that I can’t take any responsibility, as a mother, I can only do so much for Zoya.”

“Humph, is that so?”

Aunt was a little anxious. “Miss Zoya, it’s true. You’ve misunderstood Madam…”

Zhan’s wife waved her hand to stop Aunt from explaining, “Aunt, please wait outside.”

“Yes, Madam.”

Aunt nodded and left slowly.

The side hall became quiet again, and the fragrance of tea floated in the air. It was Zoya’s favorite jasmine. Madam Zhan had always remembered the love of her own daughter.

“Zoya, you can put it this way.” Zhan’s mother said gently and patiently, “I’m really surprised and surprised that you can come back. Because you have finally chosen a good future that you can see.”

“A beautiful future?” Zoya put down the teacup. “Mom, do you know what my future is and what kind of future I want?”

“A woman would rather choose her own lover than choose a man she loves.” Madam Zhan said, “You are young. It’s normal for you to go against your will, but you will understand in the future.”

Zoya opened her eyes and said, “If I didn’t come back today, I really would have left. What are you going to do?”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“It’s nothing. At most, I feel sorry for her,” said Mrs. Zhan with a sigh. “And there will be some disappointment in my heart… I think my daughter has really left me. She doesn’t even want me, her mother.”

Zoya pursed her lips and tried to hold back the tears in her eyes.

“That’s why I said that if you want to leave, you can leave. Mother doesn’t want to force you,” said Madam Zhan. “On the other hand, I also hope that you can come back to retain this good marriage. At the same time, you won’t… abandon her mother.”

Madam Zhan had always acted on her own. When she reached the end of her sentence, her voice was a little off.

“What do you mean I’m abandoning you?” Zoya stood up, holding back the tears in her eyes. She seemed to be touched by something. “Don’t think that should forgive you because you’re my mother. I should be for the sake of you and the Zhan family… Don’t forget! It was you who pretended to be sick and lured me back to the capital!”

Because of her anger, the sound echoed in the side hall for a while. Aunt, who was waiting outside, heard it and was very anxious.

After the voice fell down, it became quiet.

There was no sound at all.

After a long time, Mrs. Zhan nodded, “Yes, I apologize to you for what I did to Zoya. I lied to you.”

“Humph, don’t dare!” Zoya said sarcastically, “You are my mother. You brought me up and raised me up. How dare I ask you to apologize? don’t want others to say that am an unfilial daughter!”

Speaking of this matter, she was really angry.

She was well aware of how angry she was with the Zhan family. There was something that she could never let go of… Just like the time when the Zhan family stopped her from going out, which led to Feng waiting for her for so long. In the end, she was recognized by others and her identity was exposed.

“Don’t say that.” Mrs. Zhan looked at her angry face and softened her voice. “In fact, I was a little uncomfortable in the past few days. The doctor diagnosed that it might be some kind of hidden incurable disease. I was frightened at that time, and your father was also frightened. He asked several more doctors to treat him… Finally, I found that the misdiagnosis was just an accidental cold.”

Zhan recalled what happened in the past few days and added, “I was very upset when thought I had an incurable disease. The first thing thought could do was to see my daughter.”

Zoya’s breath was trembling. She was unwilling to stand in front of Mrs. Zhan, with her back to her.

“When I knew that had caught a cold, I was relieved. At the same time, I felt that I really missed you,” said Mrs. Zhan. “So I asked you to come back on the excuse of illness. Of course, you could marry Ragib as a daughter of the Zhan family, and your father would naturally agree.”

“Humph, you’re killing two birds with one stone, aren’t you? He’s a cunning guy!” Zoya said.

“Zoya, you’re not allowed to talk about your father like that,” Madam Zhan said. “Although he is your stepfather, he has always loved me and treated me well with all his heart over the years. At the same time, he has accepted you as his daughter.”

“Don’t count me in.” Zoya said.

Mrs. Zhan reminded her, “You are growing up in her parent’s house.”

Zoya’s eyes were red.

Although she was unwilling to give up and wanted to refute, she could not deny what Zhan’s mother said.

It was true that she was raised in the family, because her biological father was also a soldier. But she was killed not long after she was born…

“That’s enough of it.” Zoya held her hands tightly. “Whether you pretended to be sick or not to lie to me when you came back, I have no choice but to call you mom. Because you are the only mother in this world who has blood ties with me.”

“Zoya.” Mrs. Zhan looked at her with tears in her eyes. “Thank you…”

“You don’t need to thank me.” Zoya raised her head. “I’m here not only for you and the Zhan family.”

“For Ragib?” Madam Zhan smiled lovingly as she looked at her. “Sure enough, love is the greatest power.”

Zoya looked at Mrs. Zhan and did not speak. She tacitly approved of her.

After a while, she said, “I am also for myself. Give myself another chance to love and try to believe in Ragib.”

“Zoya, that’s what you think.” Mrs. Zhan was very happy. “People can’t live in the past. Ragib is a flood dragon among the people. He is a big shot in the military. You can’t miss him. So this time Mama didn’t ask you to give Ragib to Zhan Mei.”
