Chapter 622
After returning to her room, Zoya took out the gift box.
Ragib stood behind her.
Zoya walked up to him and said, "Look, here it is."
Ragib opened the box lid. There was a circle of expensive red necklace with an expensive seal inside. Each seal was embedded in the hollow platinum made of rose gold, which was beautiful and elegant.
The token at the end of the chain was marked with the sign of a luxury brand.
Ragib picked up the necklace, went around her neck, and put it around her neck. Pushing her in front of the mirror, he looked at her.
"Tsk, tsk." He sighed as he looked at her beautiful neck and necklace.
Panicking, Zoya asked, "What's wrong? It doesn't look good."
"I've got a good eye!"
Finally, Ragib patted her shoulder. "Stop plucking it. Just wear it. I think this chain will be born for you. There's no need for other women to buy it."
Zoya was amused again.
The dark red seal reflected the color of lips, making her look stunningly charming.
The next day, Zoya arranged everything in the newspaper and set off with Ragib to City.
It Was The Capital Of Country.
This place was the core of the Central regime, and was also the strongest gathering place for the military, political, and business circles in the three realms. From the Emperor Family that dominated America business, to the Zhan Family in the Central Military Region, they were all in the Imperial Capital.
However, City was the international metropolis with Goals and as the best in the country. The Ragib Family's influence in that city was huge as well, and it also had the connections of the business community....
In the central military region of Sovereign Capital, Commander's Residence - Zhan's Residence.
When Zoya and Ragib arrived at the Zhan family's house that afternoon, Commander Zhan's first subordinate, Lieutenant Colonel, had already led his men to welcome them at the gate.
After Zoya and Ragib got out of the car, Lieutenant Colonel gave a military salute and said, "Hello, Miss Zhan Mei. Welcome back. Colonel Ragib, welcome to Zhan home."
Zoya took a look at the magnificent Zhan Family, which she had left for several years, and felt a little emotional.
Compared to the grand atmosphere of the Ragib family, the Zhan family was solemn and guarded everywhere.
"Mm." Zoya nodded in a neutral manner. "Where's my mom? How is she doing now?"
Ragib glanced at Zhan's house. "Don't worry. You're back. Can't I see your mother?"
Lieutenant Colonel said, "Madam is at home today, and the doctor came to see her in the morning. However, when he heard that Colonel was coming, he had already put down his military affairs and waited at the Family's home."
"Is that so?" Ragib laughed. "Commander Zhan is giving too much face."
Lieutenant Colonel stood straight to the side, still sounding like a soldier. "Miss Zoya, Colonel Ragib, please come in."
Zoya couldn't wait to walk into the door of Zhan Family, which she had been away for several years.
In the hall, the dignified Commander Zhan was waiting there. He was dressed in military uniform and had deep facial features.
Zhan Mei is also here.
The two servants were standing beside Zhan Mei.
Commander Zhan was waiting for the arrival of Zoya and Ragib with his daughter.
After coming in, Lieutenant Colonel went up and made a salute. "Commander, Miss Zoya and Colonel Ragib are here."
Ragib and came up, Ragib gave a casual military salute and said with a smile, "Commander Zhan, I'm sorry to disturb you. I've been hearing the name of Commander Zhan in the Central Military Region. It can be said that he has an awe- inspiring reputation in all directions. It's my honor to meet you today."
Commander Commander Zhan's serious face twitched the corner of his lips. "Young Ragib, it's not easy to get your Ragib Family's attention. When it comes to authority, how can your family compare with the Ragib Family? And how can I compare with General Ragib?"
"No, my father has always mentioned you, Commander Zhan. I really admire you." Ragib said courteously, "This time, I came with Zoya and also brought my father's greetings to Commander Zhan. Last time, Commander Zhan didn't come to the Ragib Family. It's really a pity."
Off to the side, Zhan Mei threw a glance at her and her attitude was extremely cold. "Ragib, you've even rejected our blind date. my father had gone, wouldn't that have lost all of our face?"
Her face was clean, and her eyes were full of hatred.
When said this, her eyes were full of resentment towards Ragib. However, when she glanced at Zoya, she was filled with hatred!
Zoya ignored her and looked at Commander Zhan. "I went to see my mother."
When Zoya left, she said to Ragib, "I went to see my mom. Do you want to go with me?"
Ragib brought only two guards with him this time. He looked at Commander Zhan and said to Zoya with a smile, "I want to talk to Commander Zhan. You go to see your mother first, and I'll go to Madam Zhan later."
"All right."
Zoya nodded and left immediately.
From the beginning to the end, he had never called his father Commander Zhan.
Zhan Mei looked at the back of Zoya angrily. "Dad, look at my sister, she..."
Commander Commander Zhan frowned.
Obviously, the relationship between Zoya and her stepfather was bad.
Ragib listened to Zhan Mei's words and explained on Zoya's behalf, "Miss Zhan Mei, Zoya's mother is ill. She is anxious. I think that the Zhan family will not be understanding of her, right?"
Zhan Mei snorted. "Of course you speak for her. Just like when I went to City to have a blind date with you, you refused me. Have you ever cared about my face, and now you look down on my family?"
"It's about the blind date. You can't say that." Ragib said, "I like Zoya, of course I have to tell you and the Zhan family about this. I can't pretend to be Zoya and then I'll go on a blind date with you. I think this is the greatest disrespect to the Zhan family."
Ragib was sinister and crafty. With just a few words, he spoke of his relationship with Zoya in broad daylight!
Although it was originally bright.
"You're right!" Zhan Mei said angrily, "Zoya didn't like you when I first went to the Military Region in City. Why are you two together now? It's not that she wants to take me away, it's just that you two are working together to cheat me."
"Mei !" Commander Commander Zhan spoke and stopped her. "This is Colonel Ragib. Don't be rude!"
They were all yelled at by the commander.
Zhan Mei's face changes color.
But he didn't dare to retort. Instead, he gave a military salute to and said, "Supremacy."
Ragib's smile grew even brighter.
"Commander Zhan, you're too polite. No matter how you put it, I did know Zhan Mei in the past and treated her as a friend. There's no need for you to salute me."
"Mei does like you. You don't need to care about some personal feelings," Commander Commander Zhan said.
"I don't care. You don't have to care."
"Please sit, Colonel Ragib" Commander Zhan led Ragib to the reception room and said to the servant at the same time, "Serve tea."
The style of Zhan Family was based on the retro decoration, as well as the strictness of the servants and guards.
After sitting down in the living room, Ragib looked at the paintings hanging on the wall with a smile on his face. It was unknown what he was thinking about.
As for Zhan Mei, she was glaring at him the entire time.
Commander Zhan said, "Mei, you go out. Your sister is back. Let's have a good time together."
"What?" Zhan was dissatisfied. "Dad, don't you know that she..."
"I'll go."
It was Commander order.
Zhan Mei bit her lips and didn't dare to resist her father, so she had to go.
In the reception room, Commander received Ragib who came from City. Except for the servants, only Lieutenant Colonel was left. But obviously, Lieutenant Colonel was always by his side.
"I'd like to ask, Colonel Ragib, are you here to meet me in the position of the Ragib family or as Zoya's boyfriend?" Commander Zhan asked.
"There are both possibilities." Ragib said, "My father asked me to greet Commander Zhan on behalf of Zhan Family. And he also asked me to talk about the marriage on behalf of Zhan Family. Is this the intention or the decision of Zhan Family? Secondly, Zoya wants to come back to see her mother. I also come back as her boyfriend to accompany her."
Speaking of this, he smiled again. "Yes, she wants to take me to see her mother."
Commander Commander Zhan frowned.
"What, General Ragib wants to ask if Zhan Family's proposal of finding a blind date with the Ragib Family is my intention, or is it the central intention?" Commander Zhan said, "Isn't the Ragib Family clear about this?"
The Ragib Family was obviously aware of this, but Ragib wanted to personally explain it to this commander.
Ragib asked, "Can you tell me what you want me to do?"
"The central place, of course, wants our two families to unite by marriage." There was a hint of a smile on Commander Zhan's majestic face. "After all, as the largest military family in the country, our alliance is harmless. In addition, if the central place hears of Zhan mei falling in love with you, it's natural that it's our blessing."
"Oh, it's actually a blessing." Ragib laughed. "I thought the central government wouldn't believe the Ragib Clan..."
The last sentence was meaningful.
"Clan Ragib, you must be joking." At that time, Commander Commander Zhan would not admit the central suspicion. "The central government, of course, believed that we attached great importance to the military region and knew that the children of the Zhan and Ragib families were not married, so the central government specially arranged a marriage between our two families. This is the central government's intention."
Ragib did not reply. He used the cup cover to pull out the tea and noodles. "This time, I'm here as Zoya's boyfriend. I'll make it clear again that I'm not going to marry Zhan Mei."
"No, since Colonel Ragib likes Zoya, we won't force him." Commander Zhan said, "On the contrary, we will help you and Zoya. This is also the will of Zoya's mother and I."
Ragib's black eyes slightly narrowed.
"Oh?"
"In fact, Zoya's mother is not sick" Commander Zhan suddenly said, "We just want Zoya to come back and get you engaged."
Ragib was silent for a while. Then, he suddenly smiled and put down his teacup.
"Engagement? Is this the Zhan family's decision?"
"Of course."
"Then do you know that I will agree?" Ragib asked the commander.
"You will." Commander Zhan said, "If you like Zoya, and the Ragib Family doesn't want the central suspicion."
Ragib saw it.
Commander, an old fox, also knew the Ragib Family's scruples.
However, Ragib had never liked to be threatened by anything.
"What if I don't agree?" Ragib stared at Commander Zhan's face. "After all, Zoya and I haven't known each other for a long time. We need to have a solid understanding before we can get engaged. This will probably be what Zoya wants to say. She won't agree to your Zhan Family's engagement like this."
She didn't want him to touch her at all.
Why would she be engaged to him?
Although, as a member of the Ragib Family, he had a reason to arrange marriage for the Ragib Family-
"She can't be willful. She has to think for her family." Commander Zhan said, "She has been the boss of the Zhan family for so many years."
As Zoya's boyfriend, Ragib felt that she had a responsibility to say a few words to Zoya. "Commander Zhan, that's not right, isn't it? As far as I know, she left the Zhan family at that time, and you didn't force her to stay, did you?"
"It's Zoya who wants to leave on her own."
"No matter what she did, she didn't fulfill your wishes." Ragib smiled. "Besides, weren't you all focused on Miss Zhan Mei after all these years of commanding the army? Didn't you all care about Zoya's life outside for the past few years? Isn't it inappropriate for you all to force her to get engaged to me right now?"
Ragib was tall and strong. Wearing a casual shirt and trousers, he looked very arrogant and noble with his legs crossed.
Commander Zhan had long heard of the personality of Ragib.
This was a man who didn't even listen to his father General Ragib. It was impossible for the Zhan family to force him to do so.
She could only persuade him with Zoya's words...
