Chapter 649: Siege
Li Jing was embarrassed by Xiang Zhimu's cold words, but he still apologized to her in a good mood: "Zhimu, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me. Next time, I will never let my mother bully you again."
"There won't be a next time," Xiang Zhimu threw the sheets and quilt in his hand at him and sneered, "Do you know why we quarreled?"
"Do you know how I felt when I came home and found your mother had taken the necklace my friend gave her and was wearing it herself? Do you know how I felt when I saw your father sleeping in my bed? Do you know how I felt when your family came uninvited and messed up my living environment?"
"Li Jing, on the day we got the marriage certificate, you said you wouldn't let me suffer any injustice. What's going on now? You didn't come home on our wedding night, you changed your workplace without telling me, and you forced me to quit my job. And then your mother put the blame on me. We've only been married for a few days, and you've given me so many surprises. Do you think I can live like this?"
Although she wanted to live a peaceful and ordinary life, she was not the type to accept things passively.
Li Jing also knew it.
At this rate, she will soon be thinking about divorce.
He had finally married her, how could he let her divorce him so soon?
So Li Jing slapped himself twice in the face without saying a word.
This frightened Xiang Zhimu, and he immediately grabbed his hand to stop him from hitting him.
"Li Jing, what are you doing?"
Li Jing looked at her with red eyes and said, "Zhi Mu, I know I'm incompetent and you've been wronged by marrying me, but I really want to work hard and give you a better life."
"I don't know what kind of person Master Leng is, but now that the opportunity is in front of me, I must seize it. Can you just agree this time and let me stay in the imperial capital? In the future, I will never use Guan Shinan's favor to trouble Leng Jun again, nor will I ask you to owe Guan Shinan a favor again."
"Li Jing, it's not that I don't want you to seize the opportunity," Xiang Zhimu was a little helpless at Li Jing's pitiful appearance, "but Leng Jun is too dangerous. He can't help you for no reason. What if he has other requests?"
At present, Leng Jun's words and actions towards her are just frivolous. She can't say that Leng Jun has bad intentions towards her. She is also afraid that Li Jing will have trouble living in peace if she finds out, and will often suspect that she has relationships with other men.
I can only hint to him like this, hoping he can understand.
But he was blinded by one thing, and now that there was a huge opportunity in front of him, how could Li Jing give it up?
As for Leng Jun's motives, he found it funny.
"The Leng family is rich and powerful. What can he like here? Zhimu, don't worry too much. Young Master Leng has seen all the good things. How could he care about my things?"
Yes, he has seen all kinds of women.
Why are you interested in her?
Xiang Zhimu smiled bitterly in his heart.
I also know that Li Jing will not give up and leave the imperial capital.
She was forced into a dead end by Leng Jun.
"I won't say anything more. If you want to stay, then stay. But Li Jing, if there are any problems in the future, please remember that I advised you today because I wanted to go back to Wancheng with you and live a good life."
Li Jing didn't think much about it and was just happy to hear that she compromised.
He looked at her gratefully and smiled, "Zhi Mu, thank you. Don't worry, I will talk to my parents and ask them not to cause you any trouble. What happened today will never happen again, and I won't ask them to touch your things again."
"Well, I'll clean up the room first."
She hummed without any emotion, then turned around to pack up and take her things to the master bedroom.
When she saw the big bed in the master bedroom covered with a bright red wedding quilt, she realized that she and Li Jing were already husband and wife.
There will be more and more conflicts like today's.
A trace of despair emerged in my heart.
If only she hadn't gone to that alley that day.
Li Jing is her responsibility.
She couldn't abandon him, so she got married right after graduation to reassure him.
"Zhi Mu, come and try the noodles I made for you."
While I was sitting on the bed in a daze, Li Jing came in with a bowl of noodles and placed it on the table beside the bed.
Xiang Zhimu finally came back to his senses, tasted it under his eager gaze, and then praised it politely, "It's delicious."
Facing her smile, Li Jing finally felt relieved: "If you like it, I will do it for you tomorrow. Don't worry, I won't forget what I said to you on the day we got the marriage certificate. I will take good care of you and won't let you suffer any grievances."
"Well, I did something wrong today, too. I'll pay attention to the way I talk to my uncle and aunt in the future." Xiang Zhimu ate the noodles that Li Jing had carefully prepared, and his anger subsided. He also took the opportunity to discuss with Li Jing, "I went to the company today to talk to Mr. Wu about staying in the capital. Mr. Wu agreed to let me go back and also allocated me a large order. After this month's salary is paid, I will rent another house for my uncle and aunt, okay?"
She knew that Zhang Fanghua was not an easy person to get along with, and she and Zhang Fanghua would never be able to live in harmony. If Zhang Fanghua continued to live here, conflicts would be inevitable in the future. She would continue to waver like she did just now, and feel that she really should not marry Li Jing.
Fortunately, Li Jing was only stunned for a moment, and immediately agreed, and then he was about to treat Xiang Zhimu's wound.
He agreed so easily to ask his parents to live somewhere else. Xiang Zhimu finally felt relieved and thought that he just had to endure this month.
But the problem arises again.
She was going to sleep in the same bed with Li Jing tonight.
They are already married. Although Li Jing can't do anything to her now, they are husband and wife after all. Even if they can't do anything, it is better for them to sleep in the same bed.
But sleeping in the same bed with Li Jing.
Xiang Zhimu felt uncomfortable when he thought about it.
But I had to pretend nothing happened and take a shower and prepare to rest.
Fortunately, after she finished taking a shower, Li Jing had already made a bed on the floor next to the bed.
She lay down on the bed carefully, holding the quilt nervously, her whole body tense and highly alert in the silent air.
"Zhi Mu, I'm sorry, I've wronged you."
Li Jing's hoarse voice came from under the bed.
Xiang Zhimu's grip on the quilt tightened a little, his voice hoarse: "It was my fault in the first place, I should be the one to say sorry, Li Jing, don't give up, it will be fine."
"Then after I get better, will you divorce me?" Li Jing looked at the ceiling above his head and laughed at himself, "Zhi Mu, then I would rather be a useless person for the rest of my life."
"I know you don't love me, you married me out of guilt, but what can I do? I'm a slut. Even if it's pitiful, I'll keep you by my side. No matter how you look at me, as long as you don't leave me."
Xiang Zhimu: "Didn't you say not to mention this matter again? It just so happens that I am not ready. Let's listen to the doctor first. Since I married you, I really want to spend my whole life with you. I will not leave you if you don't let me down."
