"Isn't this an obvious fact?"
Chu Wuyang's anger was still burning; his voice was low but cold.
"Jingmin, are you even a man?"
"Dare to do it but not dare to take responsibility?"
The man on the other end of the phone showed no anger whatsoever, his tone calm and collected.
"Am I a man... Miss Chu, have you forgotten?"
"Would you like me to generously help you recall what happened?"
A single sentence can set someone on fire.
She gritted her teeth,
"Don't act like you're completely unyielding!"
What kind of pot am I?
Jingmin replied casually.
"Do you have to throw all the cooking fumes on me?"
That's a waste of breath.
Chu Wuyang, having reached her limit, was too tired to beat around the bush anymore and pressed him directly for answers.
"Was it you who arranged for Jian Zhou to be hit by a car?"
"And also, my documents were confiscated at the airport, was that done by your people?"
"Jingmin, what exactly are you trying to do?"
"If you want revenge, come at me. What's the point of dragging innocent people into this?"
There was a pause on Jing Min's end, his voice low and indifferent.
"Miss Chu, I'll say it again—your assistant's car accident has nothing to do with me."
"Maybe he just has too big an appetite and has been living off several women."
"He might have been hooking up with a lot of rich women behind your back. Who knows if he got caught and is being retaliated against?"
"This is nothing unusual."
He paused, then changed the subject, his tone becoming serious.
"As for your documents being confiscated..."
"I'd like to ask you first, who personally agreed to stay in my hospital room and keep watch over me last night?"
"I wouldn't dare to hope for something made by hand, and now I haven't even seen a trace of the person. Doesn't Miss Chu need to explain this first?"
"Miss Chu's integrity is truly eye-opening. Just because I didn't hold you accountable doesn't mean you can just walk away and make excuses."
His tone suddenly turned cold, like a thin knife brushing against flesh.
So, who should be asking whom?
"Why is the person who should be in my hospital room at the airport?"
"Or... are you afraid I'll really pursue charges against you for intentional assault, and you're thinking of running away beforehand?"
Chu Wuyang's breathing quickened, and the scene from that morning involuntarily flashed through her mind.
She knew his tastes, so he naturally accepted her thoughtfulness.
Mo Sangyu treated him with utmost care, and he didn't reject her; they would treat each other with respect.
Her original wish was for Jingmin to live a good life, and now he not only lives a good life, but also has a wife who truly loves him.
If she disrupts the existing balance, that would be the greatest harm to a harmonious family.
Jingmin's current obsession with her is not because he still has any feelings for her.
It's only because all his past misfortunes were because of her.
He's blinded by hatred.
But she needs to stay clear-headed.
Therefore, she needed to get away from him while she was still relatively sober, because she realized she still felt pity for Jing Min.
His occasional revelations about his painful past and the scars on his body would unsettle her heart.
She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to control herself either.
But when Jingmin asked her about going to the airport, she couldn't admit that she was going to run away.
Otherwise, Jingmin would be on guard, and even if his documents were confiscated, he could still slowly figure out a solution.
If the road is completely blocked, there's no way to get through.
She forced a smile and offered a casual explanation.
"I just have to go on a business trip because of some urgent business. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?"
"What do you mean by running away or running away?"
Jingmin spoke in a generous and understanding tone.
"Oh, it's just a business trip. If Miss Chu had something come up, she should have told me earlier!"
"There's no need to make me wait so long. Look at the time, I'm still hungry."
How could I be hungry?
Didn't he drink the porridge that Mo Sangyu brought?
Chu Wuyang spoke coldly.
"Do you have such a big appetite?"
"Isn't a bowl of matsutake mushroom and shredded chicken congee enough for you?"
Jingmin's voice was slightly deep.
How did you know?
"You...saw it?"
Chu Wuyang remained silent.
Jingmin chuckled softly.
"Looks like I misunderstood you. Are you angry? I didn't know she was there,"
Chu Wuyang: "..."
She felt as if something was blocking her throat, and she couldn't speak.
Jingmin's tone was like coaxing a disobedient lover.
It even subtly hinted at "spoiling" her—
It's as if to say, "Don't misunderstand, I'm actually still biased towards you."
That wife is just a wife, she's only a minor nuisance.
Ironically, he was clearly quite satisfied with Mo Sangyu as well.
He was considerate and protective in public, and never neglected her.
But now, in front of her, he still spoke with an impatient and disdainful tone, as if Mo Sangyu were an outsider who was getting in the way of their "fun".
Men are truly masters of saying one thing to your face and another behind your back.
Thinking of this, Chu Wuyang's fingertips trembled slightly.
She then realized,
How dangerous was that thought just now—she had actually, without realizing it, categorized herself as a "lover".
This is a disgusting thought.
It was terrible, shameful, and even utterly absurd.
She thought she was very clear-headed, but unknowingly she was being pulled into a vortex of misalignment little by little by him.
It seems she has decided to distance herself from him.
That's right.
is required.
And the sooner the better.
But today's impromptu departure was firmly stopped by an unseen hand, without a doubt.
Jingmin had been prepared.
He was watching her every move from the shadows.
The more she tried to run away, the less he would let her go.
