Chapter 223: Doing Three for Love (20) (1/2)



Xia Lan didn't think she had done anything wrong.

In his opinion, he has become much more restrained after marriage and has turned down many invitations to go out and hang out with friends.

This is already a concession.

As the weaker party in status, Jiang Jiang should be grateful and obedient instead of hooking up with Ji Ling.

"What else?"

The problem that had been bothering him for the past few days was solved. Ji Ling seemed particularly easy to talk to at this moment, and even sat down again, waiting for him to speak.

Xia Lan opened her mouth and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go to the bathroom and tell you later."

Although Ji Ling didn't frown, he still made a gesture of invitation.

Just wait for Xia Lan to leave, he looked at the bodyguard beside him: "Keep an eye on him."

He'd better not do anything weird.

Ji Ling sighed.

He didn't want to waste the time he spent with his wife on unimportant things.

===

"...What you said, he will look at you differently, is that true?"

Xia Lan carefully looked at the woman in front of her. She was pretty, but her temperament and dress did not match the one Ji Ling liked.

After he threatened Qi Youyao last night, he didn't expect that the other party could catch up with him.

He kept saying some strange things.

Xia Lan was also determined to give it a try and decided to trust her this time.

"...It's true." In fact, Qi Youyao's heart was also beating fast. She had just seen the scene of the confrontation between the two of them.

It wasn't even eye contact.

It's completely one-sided suppression.

So she also knew clearly that if she angered Ji Ling, the man in front of her would not be able to protect her, and he probably didn't want to protect her either.

It’s not too late to give up now and stay away from the lives of these rich people.

Her hands clenched and unclenched.

Xia Lan's impatient urging made her sweat break out on her forehead. When he once again used his relationship to threaten her, Qi Youyao looked up in disbelief: "You promised me that you wouldn't investigate further."

Xia Lan probably didn't even realize that his current expression was almost identical to the condescending look on Ji Ling's face, whom he hated from the bottom of his heart.

But there was a bit more arrogance and anger on his face.

"I agree to it, but the premise is that you are indeed special to Ji Ling."

"Only when you've proven your worth will you be qualified to make offers to me."

No wonder she doesn't like you.

Qi Youyao thought angrily in his heart.

After making mental preparations, I stepped out of the staff lounge.

The light overflowed into his eyes.

The murmurs of other customers could be heard in my ears.

The aroma of ground coffee beans wafted into my nose.

This was the world she had been deeply attached to in her previous life.

It was a fresh breath that she couldn't feel at all when she was with Ji Ling.

In fact, until her death, Qi Youyao had no idea what it was about her that moved Ji Ling to keep her by his side.

Everyone outside treated her as Ji Ling's female companion, the only woman who had appeared by his side in all these years.

But only she and the people around him knew that she was just a decoration.

He didn't touch her and rarely even spoke to her.

...

...

Countless complicated and confusing thoughts clogged my mind.

In the blink of an eye, she had slowly come to Ji Ling's table.

The moment the bodyguards' eyes fell on her, Qi Youyao's nerves instantly tensed up.
