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...
Su Jin couldn't stand staying in this place for even a second longer. Once they returned to the Zheng family manor, Zheng Lin wouldn't be able to act so arrogantly.
He came to the hospital, got himself into a mess, and even said he was going to sue her.
Okay, let's not have a peaceful night.
She had previously thought he was a decent person, which was a shame.
They're all fake.
......
Zheng Family Manor.
After returning to her room, Su Jin opened the wardrobe and began packing her things; she was moving back to her own home.
Since the wedding hasn't happened yet, it's her freedom to choose where she stays.
Living with a ruthless and heartless lawyer who might sue her at any moment, she feared she might end up in jail tomorrow.
I stuffed everything in haphazardly, and my suitcase is about to burst.
Then she pulled an unsightly white shirt out of her suitcase.
It's Zheng Lin's.
It's highly likely that the maid put it in the wrong room.
She threw the white shirt on the ground and, pointing at it, said veiledly, "You don't deserve to be in my closet! You should be in the trash can! What are you looking at? I'll curse you if I want, but you dare look at me!"
Outside the door, the butler, hearing the commotion inside, quickly knocked and asked, "Second Young Madam, what's wrong? Has something happened? Should I come in and help?"
Su Jin said angrily, "It's nothing, you don't need to come in."
She was furious, so she stomped on the shirt again before collapsing onto the bed and checking her phone messages.
I saw the latest WeChat message from my assistant.
[Assistant Wang]: Chairman Su, it's extremely urgent.
[Su Jin]: ?
[Assistant Wang]: Zheng Lin Law Firm just sent us a lawyer's letter, saying that you have infringed on Bai Qingchi's right to reputation and have also caused personal injury to Bai Qingchi.
[Su Jin]: Okay, I understand. Have someone send another lawyer's letter over there.
[Assistant Wang]: Is there some misunderstanding between you and Young Master Zheng?
"Misunderstanding my foot!" Su Jin slammed her fist on the table, causing the glass of hot water to fall over.
Her hands immediately turned bright red.
"Hiss." Su Jin looked at the scalded back of her hand and blew on it.
After packing everything, Su Jin pulled her suitcase out of the room.
The housekeeper was still standing outside the door. Seeing that she looked like she was about to run away from home, he asked, "Second Young Mistress, where are you going so late?"
"Go home. I can't stay here for another second longer."
Su Jin walked forward, and the butler turned around and called to the master who was reading in the study.
Zheng Youguo rushed over and stopped Su Jin from leaving.
"What happened? Who bullied you? Tell me." Zheng Youguo didn't need to think too much; if his daughter-in-law wanted to leave, it must be his son's fault.
Zheng Youguo shoved the butler and pointed over there, saying, "Go and call that brat Zheng Lin out here!"
But Zheng Lin had already heard the news, and before he could even call out, the man had already come out.
Zheng Lin walked past them, acting as if he hadn't seen Su Jin leaving, treating everyone as if they were invisible. He only glanced at Su Jin's bright red hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.
He went into the study, found a book, and then silently walked back to his room.
Zheng Youguo was furious. "Stop! I told you to stop! Can't you see your wife is leaving? What do you mean by this?"
“If she wants to leave, let her leave. She’s a grown woman; we can’t restrict her personal freedom.” Zheng Lin said, then closed the door.
Su Jin picked up her suitcase, didn't hesitate any longer, put on her shoes in one go, opened the door and left.
Zheng Youguo told the butler to chase after them, and Su Jin, like a wild horse, quickly stuffed the luggage into the trunk and drove off.
The housekeeper felt it was pointless to chase after them; they couldn't possibly get them back.
“Master, the one who tied the knot must untie it,” the butler said. “Only the second young master can persuade the second young mistress to come back. No matter how much we say, it’s not as good as a word of coaxing from the second young master.”
That evening, the lawyer's letter spread across the internet.
Su Jin fell asleep with a heavy heart.
By the next day, the internet was filled with insults and abuse directed at Bai Qingchi.
Chairman's Office.
Su Jin looked at the comments under the Weibo post, and they were all incredibly harsh.
【Bai Xiaosan is black for life】: Bai Qingchi is a mistress, and she still has the nerve to accuse others of being the original wife.
[Concerned Netizen 9768]: I feel sorry for Chairman Su for a minute. Her husband is barely gone, and the mistress is already causing trouble. I dare say this is because Bai Qingchi is jealous that the original wife received a huge inheritance. She got nothing, and in her anger and desperation, she's resorting to this tactic, clearly wanting to destroy everything.
【Keli Lili】: Just watching the drama unfold.
[Ice Sugar Cola]: Supporting Wudu Group, I'll go to their live stream tonight to buy their latest products. It doesn't matter what I buy, I just happen to need some things at home.
......
Su Jin stared blankly, raising her left eyebrow slightly. "I never imagined that I would be the one being sued, but the one being insulted is Bai Qingchi."
She scrolled through a few more comments before handing the tablet to Assistant Wang.
Su Jin bit her fingernail and thought for a moment, "Bai Qingchi is unlucky, but I'm rich. I'm so happy."
Assistant Wang, holding his tablet, chuckled, "This proves that netizens still have discerning eyes."
“Go buy some online trolls,” Su Jin thought for a moment, “to post negative comments about Zheng Lin, the more negative the better.”
"Yes, Chairman Su." Assistant Wang sighed inwardly; this was quite a love-hate drama.
Someone knocked on the door.
Su Jin looked up and glanced at him: "Please come in."
She picked up her water glass and took a sip. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw who had come in, and the water stuck in her mouth. She froze.
She puffed out her cheeks, looked at the person with a confused expression, and then swallowed the water with a gulp.
"Then I'll go out and take care of other things first." Assistant Wang wisely slipped away.
Hearing the door close, Su Jin finally spoke: "I wonder what crime Attorney Zheng came up with to accuse me of today?" Calling him "lawyer" was just a way of insulting him.
Zheng Lin placed the ointment for treating burns on the table, gave Su Jin a deep look, and then turned to leave.
"Stop!" Su Jin picked up the ointment, rushed in front of him, and demanded, "What do you mean by this?"
“You’ve been burned. That’s medicine for burns,” he said, turning his face slightly to the side.
"Oh, I see. A slap followed by a sweet treat. Thank you so much for your concern, Attorney Zheng." Su Jin opened the ointment, squeezed out a little bit, and smeared it haphazardly on the back of her hand.
This situation is worrying to look at.
Will you apply it?
Zheng Lin grasped her wrist and used his fingers to spread the ointment evenly. "If you treat yourself like that, you'll never get better."
The ointment was cool and refreshing, but his fingertips were warm. When he touched the skin, it tickled and sent a tingling sensation through him.
For some unknown reason, she felt a tingling sensation running from her spine up to her ears, as if a faint electric current was passing through her.
Su Jin frowned slightly, quickly withdrew her hand, and put it behind her back.
Su Jin: "Alright, you can go now."
Falling in love can lead to unhappiness.
Especially since this man already has someone in his heart, he has to carry the train and run through the night.
Two-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged men are everywhere.
Zheng Lin noticed her unusual behavior and concluded that she was angry about the lawyer's letter she sent yesterday. He couldn't help but think more deeply: perhaps threats were a way to control her.
Want to avoid being prosecuted?
"Hehe." Su Jin moved closer to him and stared intently into his eyes: "If you want me to apologize to Bai Qingchi, you can do anything in your dreams. You'd be better off spending that time dreaming."
She could apologize to anyone, but she just couldn't do it to Bai Qingchi.
