Chapter 624
"Do you have to be so angry with your mother?" Mrs. Zhan behind him looked at her as she was leaving. She was also worried. "If I don't say that I'm sick, will you come back? Mom just wants to see you. How many years have you been away from the hospital? Not only have you never come back, but you don't even want to answer my phone. I am your mother, not your enemy. Feng has been dead for so many years. Why do you still hold a grudge against me for that? Can't you just let it go?"
The rims of Zoya's eyes reddened. Gritting her teeth, she said, "Are you done talking?"
"You can't leave," said Mrs. Zhan. "I've discussed with your father that this time, the Zhan family is officially bringing you back. You must arrange a marriage with Ragib in the name of the daughter of the Zhan family."
"Ha." Zoya laughed sarcastically. "You're really my mother. You tricked me into coming back, but you still want me to marry her on behalf of the Zhan family? I'm really grateful to you. Mom, and the family spent a lot of effort to bring me back."
"Zoya, is there a need for you to be so hard to hear?" Mrs. Zhan behind her said with excitement, "Didn't you say Ragib is your boyfriend? Now the whole Zhan Family is fulfilling your wish. I just don't want you to remember the past, and I even get angry because of the fact that the dragon was sealed. I just want to see the man who can take care of you."
Zoya did not turn her head.
The rims of his eyes were red.
"I asked you to come back, of course, because I wanted to see you." Mrs. Zhan said, "Even if you don't marry Ragib through marriage, I still hope that you can come back. Can't I see my daughter?"
"Really?" Zoya turned her face back and looked at Mrs. Zhan with red eyes, "If I don't marry Ragib as his daughter through marriage, will you still want me to come back? And will you be happy?"
Mrs. Zhan's drooping fingers shook, as if she had something else to say in her eyes.
Zhan Mei said coldly, "Sis, now that your fox tail has been revealed, you don't want to be engaged to Ragib at all, so why do you think you have the right to take advantage of him?"
"Shut up!" Zoya said, "I didn't talk to you!"
Who the fck did she think she was!
Besides, since Ragib was her boyfriend, what right did she have to let him go?
Zhan Mei also became anxious. "You know that the Zhan family is going to marry into the Ragib family, but since you don't plan to marry Ragib..."
"I said you shut up." Zoya said bluntly, "I didn't talk to you. And if you want to steal Ragib from me, you can do it on your own. I have nothing to say if you can do it. But don't expect me to give it to you as I did before!"
Her hands, which were holding tightly, started to tremble.
Her eyes were filled with hateful emotions!
"Zoya, don't say anything." Mrs. Zhan looked at them. "I won't be unhappy about your marriage alliance because I just want my daughter to live a good life. However, as Commander Zhan's wife, I hope you can agree. The Zhan family needs a marriage alliance with the Ragib family."
"I have my own plans for my business. I don't need you to make the decision for me!"
After saying that, Zoya strode forward. She and Ragib had just started. She didn't want to get married immediately...
What's more, don't want to be forced to marry by the Zhan family!
"If you don't care about me, you can leave now." Mrs. Zhan looked at her back and said in an angry and sad voice, "If anything happens to me in the future, don't worry. I won't bother you anymore."
Zoya's footsteps paused for a moment before she left the garden, enduring the soreness in her eyes.
Mrs. Zhan trembled as she looked in the direction in which Zoya had left. She had a feeling that Zoya would be angry if she came back.
However, she didn't expect that Zoya would still mind it so much after so many years.
Zhan Mei immediately complained, "This is the Zhan family. Why should she be the one to lose her temper-"
"Zhan mei." For many years, it was the first time that Mrs. Zhan looked at her husband and his wife's daughter with such a serious gaze. "Since your father married you, I have always treated you as my own daughter. Whatever you want, I will try my best to make her give way to you and give in to you. One reason is that you are younger than Zoya, and the other is that your mother passed away, so we all try to take care of you as much as possible. But we don't take it for granted that others will give in to you."
Zhan Mei's eyes widened. In the face of Mrs. Zhan, who was so serious for the first time, she could not believe that Mrs. Zhan would say these words to her.
"Zoya is my own daughter. I don't want you to go too far. I regard you as my daughter and I also hope you can treat her as your sister," Mrs. Zhan said, "I don't want to take her boyfriend away from her again."
"Mom, that's not what I meant." A hint of a smile appeared on Zhan Mei's pale face. "It was Big Sister who said that she didn't want to marry Ragib, right? But I really do like him..."
"However, Ragib likes Zoya." Madam Zhan said, "Your father and I have already decided to get engaged to them. I hope that you wish them good luck in the name of your younger sister and not to cause any more trouble."
After finishing her words, Mrs. Zhan left with Aunt.
Behind him, she was as beautiful as a thunderbolt!
His whole body froze.
Asking Zoya and Ragib to get engaged? Now, they were ready to get engaged?
There was a streak of blood in her eyes. She glared at Mrs. Zhan's back with resentment.
After Madam Zhan left the garden with Aunt, she was a little worried. "Madam, Miss Zhan Mei is too narrow-minded. If you say that to her, what if she follows the Commander..."
"When I married into the Zhan family, I feel that I'm worthy of everyone in the family," said Mrs. Zhan. "How did I treat Zhan? He should be very clear that I have never treated his daughter well."
"That's true," Aunt said, "Commander should be able to understand you."
"If he doesn't trust me because of such a small matter, he would think that I'm going too far." Mrs. Zhan smiled gently. "Then I'm going to marry the wrong person."
"No, the Commander will believe you, madam." Aunt said, "Madam is well- educated and virtuous. She treats Miss Zhan Mei as if she were her own daughter. The whole Zhan family knows this."
It was the first time that she had ever said something so serious to Zhan Mei, even when she had been married to Commander Zhan.
This was because Zhan Mei was once again interested in Zoya's stuff.
No matter how good she was to Zhan Mei, her own daughter was also Zoya.
"There is a reason why Zoya hates my family." Mrs. Zhan sighed when she said this. "In the past, she and Feng... If it weren't for the Zhan family saying that she lived in the army when she was not in love, she might have been married to Feng And the next time they meet, it's impossible for them to say goodbye to each other."
"Alas," Aunt said, "in fact, it was Miss Zhan Mei who was blamed. She said she liked Feng and wanted Miss Zoya to give Feng to her."
"So, no matter what, I can't be more attractive this time. I can be good to her, but I can't sacrifice my daughter's happiness." There was a hint of firmness in Mrs. Zhan's soft eyes.
"Madam, this is..." Aunt said, and then she thought of something. "But according to Miss Zoya's attitude just now, I'm afraid that she won't agree to be engaged to Colonel Ragib right now. I heard that they haven't been together for long."
"She has to agree," Mistress Zhan said. "If she doesn't agree, then Zhan Mei has a reason to take over her marriage with Ragib. I will try to persuade Zoya again."
For so many years, Mrs. Zhan, who had been working on a bowl of flat water, had made up her mind to fight for her daughter's future.
In the end, Zoya still cared about Mrs. Zhan.
She didn't want to leave just like this to make Mrs. Zhan sad.
That night, she stayed at Zhan's house. After looking at her room for a long time,
Zoya let out a sigh of relief.
In the winter night of Capital, the moonlight seemed to be brighter, lighting up the courtyard of the Zhan family outside.
"Ah." Zoya put her hand in front of the window and looked at the moonlight outside with emotion. "It's winter before we knew it. Christmas is coming, right? I remember last Christmas, I was with Summer."
Now Chloe got married and had a husband. She had Christmas with her husband.
Zoya felt a sense of loneliness as if her best friend had been taken away by a man.
Ragib was smoking in her room. Hearing her words, he slowly exhaled a circle of smoke. "Don't think too much about it.
Miss Chloe won't be able to accompany you on Christmas this year. She and Aman are probably in French romance right now."
"I know. You don't need to remind me." Zoya glanced at him. "I'm just being emotional. Can't you see it?"
"But think can spend this Christmas with you." Ragib dusted the ash in a cup next to him and said, "I'll spend the Christmas with you at Zhan Family,"
"Hey, hey, hey." Zoya frowned. "Why are you smoking in my room? And don't you smoke?"
"Occasionally." Ragib extinguished the cigarette butt in his cup. "But in the military regions, they generally won't smoke it."
Zoya frowned. "You'd better stop drawing."
"Why not?"
"If you smoke even a cigarette, that means you have all the tobacco, alcohol, and women," Zoya said gloomily.
"..." Ragib's movements froze and he glared at the woman.
"Ha." Zoya smiled. "I was wrong."
Ragib looked at her and continued to take a deep breath. "Let me tell you, if you say something like this, it will be up to you."
Zoya's lips were pressed into a tight line and her ears were red.
"By the way, didn't you go to see your mother this afternoon?" Ragib thought of something and smiled. "See, how's her condition?"
Zoya glanced at the man behind her and said, "Don't mention it. She is not ill. She and the Zhan family just want to trick me into coming back."
Ragib was not surprised at all.
Because in the afternoon, Commander Zhan had already told her that Mrs. Zhan was not sick at all...
"Really?" Ragib deliberately followed her questions and felt gratified for her. "Since you're not ill, it's good. If your mother is really seriously ill, you won't be happy, will you?"
However, Zoya's face was still sullen. "Although said that, I'm still very angry. She cheated me back with the excuse of illness. Should I have no feelings at all?"
"Maybe she misses you." Ragib sighed. He stood up and looked around Zoya's room. "No matter what, she is your mother. You don't want to lose her mother. Since that's the case, then don't take it to heart."
Walking to the front of Zoya's bed, Ragib reached out his hand and pressed hard on her bed. He didn't know what he was testing.
"I can only be angry. What can I do?" Zoya became more and more upset as she spoke. Her anger was welling up in her chest. "She lied to me to come back. How can I have a relationship with her? It's not meaningful for me to argue with her."
He also said that if she left, he would not bother her if she fell ill in the future.
"Is he forcing me to stay?"
But Zoya had to admit that she didn't want Mrs. Zhan to stay for a while.
"Now that you think about it, that's right." As Ragib spoke, he caressed the sheets with his fingers.
A hint of an ambiguous evilness appeared in his black eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"I've thought about it anyway. I'll stay at Zhan Family until Christmas at most," Zoya said, "I can't go back to Zhan Family. I have my newspaper office, my job, and my life. I can only pay attention to her when I come back."
"Sure." Ragib sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her with a meaningful gaze. "I can stay with you, as long as you want."
