After Becoming Widowed, I Inherited a Billion-Dollar Fortune

To protect her billion-dollar fortune, the newly widowed Su Jin is forced to get married again.

After the wedding, the two agreed not to interfere with each other and not to affect each other...

Chapter 11 That Call of "Husband" Touched My Heart

Bai Qingchi and Su Jin have been friends for many years. Bai Qingchi knows Su Jin very well. Su Jin is easy to coax and is very sentimental.

Su Jin shrugged and said, "You've lost quite a bit of weight. Is it because you lost the baby? Don't be angry. They say that what is destined to be yours will be yours, and what is not, you can't force. I heard from the doctor that after this miscarriage, it's almost impossible for you to have another child."

At this point, Su Jin decided to deliver the final, fatal blow to the innocent girl: "Not only is the child gone, but your brother Xichen is gone too. He's dead. That's the bad news I wanted to tell you."

"Beep—"

The reading on the electrocardiogram monitor skyrocketed to 120!

Bai Qingchi's heart skipped a beat.

"Dead?" Bai Qingchi was so shocked that she almost sat up in bed, but her injuries prevented her from moving.

She recalled the car accident that day; she lost consciousness the moment she was hit.

Bai Qingchi's eyes were filled with tears: "No, how could he be dead? Xiao Jin, are you kidding me?"

The Zhao family saw Su Jin as a rising star and wanted to win her over through marriage, so they married her.

At that time, Zhao Xichen was unwilling to separate from Bai Qingchi, but he couldn't let go of the huge temptation of the marriage alliance with the Su family. He pretended to pursue Su Jin while maintaining his loving relationship with Bai Qingchi.

Even so, Bai Qingchi still believed that one day Zhao Xichen would marry her.

Now, it has truly all come to nothing.

Bai Qingchi has had affairs with many men, but Zhao Xichen is the biggest sugar daddy among them.

Su Jin lowered her body to look at the tears in Bai Qingchi's eyes, and suddenly let out a cold laugh.

But a familiar male voice came from behind.

What brings you here?

Su Jin straightened up and turned to look.

It was Zheng Lin.

He was carrying a bowl of porridge and placing it on the bedside table.

Seeing the congee he brought, Bai Qingchi's eyes reddened. "Thank you, Brother Zheng Lin, for going out of your way to buy me congee, but I can't move."

The implication was that he should feed him.

However, Zheng Lin's attention was only on Su Jin, and he didn't hear Bai Qingchi's words at all.

The two spoke at the same time.

Su Jin: "Why are you here?"

Zheng Lin: "You were following me?"

Bai Qingchi felt superfluous at this moment, and deliberately hooked the medicine box beside him with his finger.

Hearing the sound of the medicine box falling to the ground, Zheng Lincai looked at Bai Qingchi.

Zheng Lin picked up the medicine and put it in the drawer.

Bai Qingchi asked weakly, "Brother Zheng Lin, do you know him?"

"You drink your porridge first, I'm going out for a bit."

Zheng Lin did not answer, but pulled Su Jin's wrist and left the ward.

Bai Qingchi stared at the doorway where the two had left; she had seen them walk out hand in hand clearly.

Seeing their intimacy, Bai Qingchi was driven mad with jealousy, a glint of madness burning in her eyes. "Xichen is dead, Zheng Lin can't be taken away by that little bitch Su Jin again. This time, Zheng Lin is mine, mine!"

Su Jin's wrist was held tightly by Zheng Lin, and they walked all the way to the corridor before stopping.

"They stole my car keys and followed me."

Zheng Lin lifted Su Jin's chin and examined her closely. "No matter what method you use, I won't give you the inheritance so quickly. I advise you not to do these useless things."

Su Jin naturally wouldn't reveal that she had come to cause trouble for Bai Qingchi. In any case, she had come out today on the orders of Chairman Zheng to find her husband and bring him home.

If asked, just say that.

At least, that's how it is in name. She wasn't planning on looking for it, but who knew that the two of them would run into each other at the hospital.

Su Jin glared at Zheng Lin, "I didn't want to follow you either, but it's because you didn't come home late at night that your dad sent me to look for you."

I didn't expect your dad's worries to be right. But don't worry, I won't tell your dad you were having an affair. Just come back with me later, and I'll have a good explanation.

"So you mean I should thank you?" Zheng Lin tightened his grip on her chin.

He bit his lip slightly, looking directly into her clear eyes: "Go back tonight, and you can say whatever you want."

Su Jin thought he was really strange.

Is this the embarrassment and anger after being exposed? He even tried to provoke her.

"I won't say anything, otherwise your beloved woman will forever remain a mistress in name only. If you can't bear it, then confess to your father yourself." Su Jin sneered, "Trying to use me to open the door? Don't even think about it."

Zheng Lin was so angry he laughed. What kind of man did she think he was? Having an affair?

And she even wanted to help cover it up.

He doesn't even know what he's angry about anymore, he's just really angry.

"Su Jin!" Zheng Lin said through gritted teeth.

Su Jin also felt angry, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it; her chest felt tight. From the moment she saw Zheng Lin appear in Bai Qingchi's ward carrying porridge, she had been very unhappy.

A thought that would make her feel good suddenly popped into her head.

If Bai Qingchi knew that she and Zheng Lin had already registered their marriage, would Bai Qingchi be so angry that she would vomit blood?

Looks like I'll have to put on an act again.

"Don't keep your lover waiting. I haven't had a chance to catch up with Bai Qingchi in a long time."

Su Jin said this, but she walked slowly, following behind Zheng Lin.

At the door of the ward, the moment Zheng Lin pushed it open, she hugged him from behind and said excitedly, "Honey, we've already registered our marriage, can't you only have eyes for me and love me?"

Zheng Lin: "..."

Zheng Lin's eyes darkened, and even his eyelashes trembled.

That one word, "husband," was so sweet and endearing.

His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, but he didn't turn around.

He seemed unmoved.

Su Jin didn't care what he thought; her goal was to know what Bai Qingchi thought.

The door was slightly ajar, and Bai Qingchi saw the two embracing and clearly heard the news of their marriage.

I was completely shocked!

How could that be? Xi Chen just died, and Su Jin already hooked up with Zheng Lin and got married.

How could Zheng Lin possibly be interested in a woman who has been married before!

Two nurses passing by couldn't help but glance at them. After walking a distance, they kept turning back, wanting to hear what happened next.

Zheng Lin didn't say anything, but grabbed Su Jin's wrist, went back into the ward, and closed the door.

Bai Qingchi lay on the hospital bed, looking out the window with a sorrowful expression in his eyes.

Once Zheng Lin and Su Jin had approached, Bai Qingchi turned her face towards him and said, "Brother Zheng Lin, I'm hungry. I can't reach the porridge. Could you feed me?"

Zheng Lin pulled up a chair and sat on the edge of the bed, raising the bed so that Bai Qingchi could sit up a little.

He picked up the bowl of congee, blew on it, and fed it to her.

Bai Qingchi took a bite and glanced at Su Jin.

After Zheng Lin finished feeding her, Bai Qingchi suddenly collapsed, and Zheng Lin managed to catch her.

Bai Qingchi: "Ah, Brother Zheng Lin. It's my fault, I can't even sit still."

Zheng Lin helped her straighten up before letting go: "Don't feel guilty, you'll recover soon."

"I'm afraid I'll be ruined from now on. I don't know what to do. Why did I have to get into this car accident? Waaah."

Bai Qingchi suddenly burst into tears. Zheng Lin, fearing that it might cause an infection in the wound on her face, quickly took out a tissue to wipe the corner of her eyes.

Zheng Lin: "I will take good care of you from now on. You still have me."

Su Jin stood there, her hands clenching involuntarily. She didn't want to eat this dog food, and she was too lazy to eat it.

Does he even know what kind of person Bai Qingchi is, yet he makes such a promise with such conviction? Has he lost his mind?

How could she have an ex-boyfriend like Zheng Lin? She was so blinded by his good looks back then.

That man is such a scoundrel.

Su Jin stepped forward, and Bai Qingchi immediately showed a terrified expression, screaming, "Don't hit me! Don't hit me! I really didn't steal your person, don't hit me!"
