Chapter 346 Love and pity

...

Tonight is the day Jiang Zhiyue returns.

It was only a few days, but it felt like an entire winter.

To Jiang Zhiyue, this winter seemed so long that it would never end.

She stood outside the house and slowly stretched out her hand. A few flakes of fallen snow melted in her palm, leaving a wet feeling.

The girl's long eyelashes trembled slightly. Just as she was about to wipe the dampness off her palm, her small hand was grasped by a powerful hand.

Chu Junyue reached out his hand to wipe away the few drops of water. Jiang Zhiyue's eyelashes trembled faster and faster, and she quickly pulled her hand back.

Chu Junyue held her hand tightly and Jiang Zhiyue couldn't shake it off.

She called out, "Master Chu..."

That familiar attitude seemed to be begging the man not to embarrass her.

Chu Junyue couldn't help but said in a deep voice, "I told you not to run around, why are you standing outside alone?"

This matter was related to Jiang Zhiyue accidentally ingesting hallucinogenic water.

When she woke up the next day, she felt like she had seen Qin Si. However, when Jiang Zhiyue opened her eyes, the person sitting beside the bed was Chu Junyue.

I don’t know how long he stared at her while she was sleeping. Those deep and gloomy eyes were like a bottomless pool that almost drowned her.

Seeing that Jiang Zhiyue was having a nightmare, Chu Junyue gently touched her forehead.

If he took off his military uniform and the smell of gunpowder on him wasn't so strong, he would probably give people the illusion that he was a good family man.

Chu Junyue's attitude has become more and more intimate since Jiang Zhiyue's visit. The two have cooperated several times and cooperated well. Jiang Zhiyue also gave him a lot of ideas.

It can be said that Chu Junyue used to treat Jiang Zhiyue as a little girl, but now he has more genuine feelings for her.

The news of Chu Junyue and Lin Xian'er's broken engagement had already spread in the military building.

In fact, everyone knows Jiang Zhiyue, not only because she is the best student in Wharton College in all these years, but more because of what she has done.

Jiang Zhiyue is enough to leave a deep impression in everyone's heart.

Besides, she is so beautiful...

Beauty will be her initial eye-catching label, and later, facts will overturn unrealistic arguments.

Chu Junyue's way of breaking off the engagement was simple and crude. He sent a letter of cancellation of engagement to the Lin family, and specially chose a few days after Lin Xian'er came out of the Inspection Office.

Old Master Chu felt that this was a bit abrupt, so after Chu Junyue collected a batch of high fines from corrupt officials and handed them over, he nodded and agreed to this matter.

Lin Xian'er couldn't accept it, and ran to Mrs. Chu for help, but she had already gone abroad.

Lin Xian'er ran to find Mrs. Sheng and begged Mr. Sheng to come forward to coordinate, saying that Jiang Zhiyue was the culprit who seduced Chu Junyue to change his heart.

What was even more surprising was that she learned that Jiang Wanrou and Mr. Sheng were related by blood.

I heard that she went crazy in the Sheng family that night and almost overturned the entire family. If it weren't for Old Madam Sheng's protection, Lin Xian'er would have vented her anger by smashing antiques and family portraits, and would have run to the ancestral temple to expel Jiang Wanrou from the family tree.

"They are not qualified to be members of the Sheng family. I don't believe it! I don't believe anything! A lowly maid, a lowly tutor, how can they be qualified to be members of the Sheng family! They are just using their beauty to seduce people!"

"The paternity test is fake, all fake! Jiang Wanrou had a child before marriage and had promiscuous relationships with both men and women. She has no shame! Jiang Zhiyue is just an illegitimate daughter with an unknown father. I don't know where this little bastard came from—"

Before she could finish her words, Lin Xian'er was slapped in the face.

All I heard was two very calm but high-pitched voices, "You deserve to be beaten."

The person who spoke was Sheng Huaian, and the person who took action was Sheng's father's subordinate.

These guards had all been in military camps before, so they were ruthless in their attacks. The slap landed solidly on Lin Xianer's face.

This was also the first time that Sheng Huaian asked someone to take action.

In front of Old Madam Sheng, that hard slap knocked Lin Xian'er to the ground. She couldn't speak for a long time and was completely stunned.

Invisibly, it was more like a hot slap in the face of Old Lady Sheng.

Their eyes met, and Old Lady Sheng's look was gloomy, no longer as kind as before.

While Jiang Zhiyue was not in Monterey, Old Lady Sheng had no intention of letting Jiang Wanrou go.

Stan Lee's hospital was involved in a murder lawsuit, and someone told her directly that if she wanted to survive, she had to leave quickly and never set foot in Brandenberg again in her life.

Stan Lee's private car caught fire for unknown reasons. It was later discovered that a few playing children had thrown flammable objects under her car.

No matter how careful Sheng Huaian was, he couldn't find any evidence against the other party, so he had to force Stan Lee to stay in his private territory and take care of Jiang Wanrou personally.

When this news reached Mr. Sheng's ears, it became known that he had an unclear relationship with the medical staff and was keeping a strange woman under house arrest.

Sheng Huaian doesn't care about outside opinions. He will not become the heir, so he doesn't need image, reputation, or fame.

He just looked at Old Madam Sheng, the coldness in his eyes no longer concealed, more bitingly cold than before.

.....

Jiang Zhiyue didn’t know yet what she had hidden from Sheng Huaian, and even if she knew, distant water could not put out a nearby fire.

She could feel the changes in Chu Junyue, just like the rumors, Chu Junyue broke off the engagement for her.

Jiang Zhiyue finally realized that the man was not just talking when he asked her to compensate a fiancée.

His body movements revealed everything. His body temperature pressed against her, melting her even through the thick clothes.

The warm and cool lips fell on Jiang Zhiyue's soft earlobe. Chu Junyue touched it gently and whispered something to her.

Jiang Zhiyue nodded.

Chu Junyue's Adam's apple rolled inexplicably, and he asked, "Besides Zhaoye, who else do you think of?"

"I'm busy with work. I can't go back with you. It's very likely that I won't be able to go back for half a year or even within this year."

Chu Junyue's brows twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but continue speaking.

He couldn't help but hug the girl tighter, not only wanting to melt her with his hot body temperature, but the desire mixed with emotion had already changed involuntarily.

Jiang Zhiyue clearly felt the man's surging reaction, and he held her even tighter in his arms, as if even her bones and flesh were about to melt into his blood.

Such temperature and intensity are not something that ordinary people can endure.

Jiang Zhiyue's buttocks were burning hot, and she moved forward uncomfortably, unable to suppress the urge to leave.

Chu Junyue held the girl back tightly, lowered his voice, and kissed the girl's ear lovingly, "Wait for me to come back."

"I don't care who you are." There was a subtle stagnation in the air, and he said again.

For some reason, Jiang Zhiyue suddenly thought of that vague warning.

"You can only choose one."
