I was shocked by the news that Zhuomei was about to build a shopping mall in Xuzhou, because it was impossible to tell whether it was purely for commercial purposes or something else. Mi Zhongde seemed to see through my doubts and said, "You don't have to think about Zhuomei's investment in Xuzhou... This is just the decision made by Xiaocai after unanimously recognized the strategic plan that Xiaocai had formulated. According to Zhuomei's current situation, it is indeed more suitable for top third-tier cities. Shopping malls built in first-tier cities have not received the expected returns, and the investment efficiency is very low!"

In fact, because of Mi Cai, I was very concerned about Zhuomei's development prospects. After a little silence, I replied: "You should have done this long ago. Zhuomei has missed many gold development opportunities in your hands over the years!"

Mi Zhongde shook his head, sighed with a complicated expression, and said, "Some things you see are only superficial phenomena. Over the years, I have also had many difficulties and had to compromise!"

I smiled disdainfully: "Do you have any difficulties?... All we see is your perfect means!"

Mi Zhongde looked at the open space with the sunshine for a long time before replying: "Zhuomei is a product of a period and a love, hate and love of a generation... You should think about why when Zhuomei was in a crisis, she rescued Xiaocai, but not her biological mother Yan Zhuomei?... Whether it is Zhuomei's former investors or current investors, who can be more important than Yan Zhuomei's three words. If she is determined to save Zhuomei, it will be a simple task!"

"She hopes Mi Cai will go to the United States to accompany her, but Zhuomei is Mi Cai's biggest bond. Of course, she doesn't want Zhuomei to continue to exist!"

"Those don't make her think like this... The most important thing is the thorn in her heart. Zhuomei has been there for a day, and her guilt has always existed. She was sorry for my elder brother and our family back then... Zhuomei's name is like a knife stabbed in her heart. Do you understand if I say that?"

After a moment of silence, I replied, "I understand that she is too selfish. In order to remove the thorn in her heart, would she rather destroy a group that carries a lot of livelihoods?"

"Every political movement in history, every bloody war is because the power class has a thorn in your heart... In your eyes, Zhuomei is a group that carries livelihoods, but from her height, Zhuomei is just a second-rate group that makes her feel uncomfortable..."

"Haha, it seems that everything you did to Mi Cai is to protect Zhuomei, and Yan Zhuomei is the mastermind behind the scenes... Do you think this logic makes sense?"

Mi Zhongde's face darkened and replied: "Why do you think it will not affect the direction of the incident at all? Zhuomei's affairs cannot be explained clearly in a few words. Every person who has interests in Zhuomei is calculating. I hope Zhuomei can develop in the direction of maximizing her own interests. You should have seen this long ago!"

I felt sad inexplicably. Perhaps in this world, except for Mi Cai and her deceased father Mi Zhongxin, Zhuomei will always be a tool for a group of people to compete for interests, just a tool!

In my silence, Mi Zhongde said again: "I am here to find you this time, just a kind reminder... Don't use the fearlessness of young people to challenge Yan Zhuomei's bottom line. Her life experience has fully demonstrated what kind of woman she is. All the requirements she has made for you and Xiao Cai are what you must abide by."

“What else?”

"Don't ask me, otherwise, you should ask yourself whether it is right or wrong to act so decisively... Regarding your marriage to Xiao Cai, I remind you for the last time, think twice!"

Mi Zhongde, who was not arguing with me, finally lost his patience to continue chatting. He got into the Mercedes-Benz when he came, and the driver quickly drove him away from my sight.

......

After Mi Zhongde left, I stood alone for a while before returning to the coffee shop. I felt a little uneasy. These uneasiness was indeed because Mi Zhongde's warning played a role. I really don't know what kind of woman Yan Zhuomei is, and I don't know what consequences would be for Mi Cai and I insist on holding a wedding... At this moment, I would rather believe that everything Mi Zhongde said to me was just an alarmist statement they had no choice but to give up this upcoming wedding! And to this point, I can no longer give up on this upcoming wedding.

In the evening, Mi Cai was still standing outside the glass window as usual and greeting me. She was carrying a tote bag in her hand. I knew she had bought the white dress she liked. She walked into the coffee shop in a good mood, and then sat down opposite me. She said to me: "Zhaoyang, Xiaoyun has already approved me for a wedding leave. I can rest again tomorrow... It's not a rest. Thinking about it, there are really many things to prepare!"

"Um."

My negativity also made Mi Cai's mood depressed, and she asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with you? She looks listless!"

I didn't want to tell her the burden inside, which affected her mood for marriage, so I smiled and replied, "After busy for a day, my brain has begun to passively slacken... Let's go back to have a meal quickly. When the energy is replenished, you call me and we will finally confirm how many friends will come to the wedding. The information on the number of people will be fed back to the hotel tomorrow afternoon at the latest!"

Mi Cai nodded and began to help me pack up the messy things on the table... But seeing her becoming more and more like a wife, the burden in my heart is getting heavier and heavier. I don’t know why we can’t have a relaxed but expectant wedding like normal men and women... Could it be that if we get her, an impeccable woman, is she destined to lose a lot of emotions and things?

......

After leaving the coffee shop, Mi Cai and I went to Banda and my mother for dinner first, and then returned to our residence. We called our friends as agreed in advance. The feedback I received was: Most of the friends would come to the wedding to send congratulations, but Yan Yan would not come as she said in advance. She was anxiously helping Jian Wei handle some of the matters before going abroad, which was a big regret for me...

After about an hour, Mi Cai and I finally finished all the calls. She asked me with concern: "Have you contacted my family?"

I sighed and replied, "Not yet...there is really no way around now. I am still paying attention to us silently. I will give us a surprise on the wedding day, or she is really with Robben now!"
