Chapter 189 The Divorced Wife Turns on Herself VS The Arrogant and Wealthy Husband (18)
Jiang Zhiyi said several more words, but seeing that he still didn't answer, she stopped.
"Finished yelling?" Chu Lincheng looked up at her. "Are you feeling better now?"
She sat on the sofa beside him, ignoring him.
Chu Lincheng took out his phone and swiped the screen, seemingly searching for something.
He clicked on a recording from over a year ago.
Her voice, sweet and coquettish yet tinged with anger, came through the phone.
"I really need to sleep, I can't do this anymore! What's the difference between you and a pervert right now?"
"You want to die sooner if you want, but do you want me to suffer with you? Chu Lincheng, can't you stop being so selfish? You're a bastard!"
After the recording was played, Jiang Zhiyi's expression turned sour.
Chu Lincheng wanted to play it again.
"Turn it off right now!" She lunged at him and grabbed his phone.
"You bastard! You've gone too far!"
Jiang Zhiyi was furious. Didn't she have any pride?
Chu Lincheng hugged her tightly, refusing to let go, and said, "How come you can't even swear?"
She kept repeating the same few sentences over and over again, and he was already used to hearing them.
Hasn't he been scolded enough before?
"Let go of me!" Jiang Zhiyi was both angry and annoyed. "When did you record this?"
Chu Lincheng smiled and said, "It was recorded by accident."
She used to stay up all night and wake him up. After he deliberately kept her up for several nights in a row, she couldn't take it anymore and started yelling at him.
So he kept a record of it, just in case she wouldn't behave herself in her sleep again.
Jiang Zhiyi sat there without saying a word.
The emotions she had painstakingly cultivated earlier vanished because of this incident, and now she didn't know what to do.
“My legs hurt,” he said.
She glanced at his legs several times and asked, "Can it be cured?"
"I don't know, but it should be possible," Chu Lincheng said honestly.
Jiang Zhiyi: "Who told you to do bad things..."
She now seemed to understand the usefulness of this little helper: to do bad things for her and to shield her from disaster...
“From now on, you must not interfere in our family affairs, understand?” she said.
Chu Lincheng: "...Then you can't get engaged to anyone else."
Jiang Zhiyi couldn't help but retort, "How dare you say that? Who would dare to get engaged to me now?"
He disrupted all her plans.
Although many things haven't been made public, with so much commotion, everyone knows what's going on.
It's just that no one dared to gossip about it.
"It has nothing to do with me," Chu Lincheng said innocently.
It was all done by his older brother, so it could really be said that it had nothing to do with him...
Not long after.
"I'm leaving now. You should get some rest." Jiang Zhiyi stood up, preparing to leave.
Chu Lincheng reached out and grabbed her.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Zhiyi frowned.
"Give me a kiss before you leave." He looked up at her.
"You're dreaming." Jiang Zhiyi shook him off and left the ward.
Chu Lincheng watched her leave, then looked down at his empty hands.
When he left last time, he took off his wedding ring and put it on the table. I don't know if she still has it or not; she's probably thrown it away.
but……
Chu Lincheng looked at the deep ring marks on his fingers, and his expression softened.
Even without the ring, there's still a ring mark on it, as if it hadn't been removed.
So similarly, she would also have such a mark on her hand, which she could see every time she looked down.
...
The atmosphere at the Gu family home has been a bit strange lately, but they've maintained a semblance of peace.
Everyone remained silent about the car accident and the annulment of the engagement, acting as if they had never happened.
At the dinner table that day.
Completely unaware of the situation, Gu Jiahang finally couldn't help but ask, "Where did Brother Yansen go? Wasn't he going to marry Sister?"
"Eat your food properly," Gu Likun said sternly.
"I understand." Gu Jiahang rummaged through the food in his small bowl, a grain of rice still stuck to the corner of his mouth.
Jiang Zhiyi was pondering something; perhaps there was another way.
If things continue to drag on like this, the completion of the mission will be a long way off.
After dinner, Jiang Zhiyi went to Gu Likun's study.
She told everyone what had happened, but took all the blame upon herself.
"...It was my fault for having impure thoughts, for being greedy and insatiable. I should leave the Gu family."
"From now on, let's not see each other again, we'll just be strangers. If you still care about our blood relation, you can give me some money as compensation."
Jiang Zhiyi adopted a "what's the use" attitude.
"Let me think about it. Go back and rest first." Gu Likun didn't say anything more to her.
Jiang Zhiyi left the study.
Gu Likun sat there, his thoughts drifting away, holding a yellowed photograph in his hand.
He had previously thought that Jiang Zhiyi and Chu Lincheng's relationship wasn't very deep, but now it seems that he had misunderstood.
Because of that brat, she's now even taking all the blame upon herself.
She really does look exactly like her mother.
Back then, Pei Xian was just like her, willing to break with her family in order to be with him.
Having spent these past few days together, he knew Jiang Zhiyi's personality very well; she wouldn't do anything bad.
Gu Likun sighed and made a call to his lawyer.
...
Inside the room.
Jiang Zhiyi lay on the bed in a daze.
Since she just said that, Gu Likun probably won't let her stay in the Gu family anymore.
Hopefully, the mission goes smoothly.
She didn't want things to get too ugly, and most of the Gu family members... were quite good to her.
Her phone suddenly rang twice, and she picked it up to take a look.
Chu Lincheng: [Come out, let's have an affair.]
Then came another photo of the street; he was now not far from her house.
Jiang Zhiyi has not yet replied to him.
Chu Lincheng: [Baby, come out! [roses][roses][roses]]
Jiang Zhiyi: [Are you crazy?]
Chu Lincheng: [It's okay, my leg doesn't hurt anymore. I want to see you [kiss][kiss]]
Chu Lincheng: [Feeling wronged] I'll wait for you in the car. If you don't come, I'm not leaving tonight.
Jiang Zhiyi put on a coat and went out.
