Ji Qi let Jiang Qi vent his emotions. He didn't say anything and didn't care about Jiang Qi's verbal attacks.
After all, he has gotten what he wanted. Now he is the one who is with Xu Lingyi, and he is the one with a formal status.
The worse Jiang Qi behaves, the more likely Xu Lingyi will distance herself from him and protect herself.
"Jiang Qi, have you forgotten that this marriage between you and me was not voluntary on our part?"
Xu Lingyi stood up to defend Ji Qi, her brows furrowed.
"Even if it wasn't Ji Qi, we would still get divorced. And it was you who wanted to divorce me in the first place because you were afraid that I would cling to you. Everything between us was wrong from the beginning."
Jiang Qi's temples were throbbing, and the anger he had just vented on Ji Qi was rising again.
What was even more painful than discovering that they were together was that Jiang Qi discovered that Xu Lingyi had completely sided with Ji Qi.
She fell in love with Ji Qi.
Realizing this, Jiang Qi's face turned pale and he looked at Ji Qi with a sinister look.
But Ji Qi was staring at Xu Lingyi at this moment. He seemed immersed in the joy of her protecting him and didn't care about Jiang Qi's gaze at all.
"Yes, I wanted a divorce at first, but we didn't. Legally, you and I are still husband and wife."
"And I did waver later, but at that time I didn't realize my feelings. If he hadn't gotten in the way, maybe after a while, I would have known what I really wanted, and you and I would still be husband and wife."
"He was despicable and shameless, using every possible means to induce me to divorce you. Do you admit this?"
On the contrary, it was at this time that Jiang Qicai finally faced his own feelings and was able to speak out the words hidden deep in his heart.
Xu Lingyi was speechless, but she still chose to defend Ji Qi.
"He just helped me end a wrong relationship. What did he do wrong?"
Xu Lingyi stared at Jiang Qi. "Even without Ji Qi, I can't go on with you. Jiang Qi, you weren't nice to me before, and our personalities aren't compatible. Don't you want freedom the most? How could someone like you be willing to be bound by marriage?"
Jiang Qi was unable to refute Xu Lingyi's words, and his heart seemed to be blocked by something.
"I admit that I was wrong before. I don't like being tied up. I don't know how to treat you."
Jiang Qi's eyes were heavy. "So no matter what you do, I don't blame you, because I was the one who wronged you first. But Ji Qi, I can't forgive him. He is shameless."
"If it were you, and your bestie hooked up with your husband, you would understand how I feel right now."
"This is a matter between Ji Qi and me. Please don't interfere anymore. I just want to question him."
Jiang Qishen's fierce eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Ji Qi with a sneer.
Ji Qi pressed his knuckles against his temples, "Jiang Qi, I can apologize to you, and I can also give up some of my interests in certain areas."
This reminded Jiang Qi of the recent cooperation between the two companies.
"No wonder you are willing to give up part of the Lin family's interests to the Jiang family."
All the things that I couldn't understand before are now clear to the public.
"So you're not targeting the Lin family for no reason, but because Lin Xuan plotted against Xu Lingyi at the last Lin family banquet? You're targeting the Lin family because of her?"
Ji Qi nodded silently.
Jiang Qi thought of more and more things, not only was Ji Qi involved in his divorce with Xu Lingyi.
It now seems that Xu Lingyi's move to the Ji family was all part of Ji Qi's plan.
It was now clear who had given her the necklace and why Ji Qi had moved next door to his house.
"Ji Qi, is this what you meant by you're allergic to women and you can't get close to any woman? Did you find it fun to lie to me?"
Jiang Qi just felt it was ridiculous. He actually believed Ji Qi's words for more than ten years and even treated such a liar as a brother.
If he had not been so convinced about Ji Qi's strange illness, perhaps he would have been able to detect Ji Qi's thoughts before.
"I am indeed allergic to other women, and I still am, but with her, I have no aversion to her."
Ji Qi paused and looked at Jiang Qi, "There's no need for me to lie to you about this. She's the only exception."
But Jiang Qi no longer believed anything he said.
"You're amazing then. Is your allergy a radar? Are you only immune to your best friend's wife?"
Jiang Qi sneered coldly and didn't believe anything Ji Qi said.
"Or do you want to flatter yourself and say that you and her are a perfect match? Do you still have any shame? Ji Qi, don't be so despicable and disgusting!"
Ji Qi took a deep breath and said, "I'm telling the truth, you don't have to believe it."
What Jiang Qi said was really unpleasant. No one had ever said such words to Ji Qi.
He no longer blindly accepted Jiang Qi's accusations.
"Jiang Qi, I admit I'm in the wrong, but I can't control who I fall in love with. You treated her badly first, so naturally someone else will take your place. If you knew how to cherish her, no matter how much I schemed, it would be useless."
Ji Qi looked at Jiang Qi with a serious look, and at this moment, he no longer had any reservations about what he had wanted to say for a long time.
"Besides, arranged marriages are wrong in the first place, let alone an arranged marriage that has caused her so much injustice."
As early as ancient times, there were Liangshanpo and Zhu Yingtai who resisted arranged marriages, and now it is the 21st century.
Why are they immoral, if we really want to talk about immorality?
It was immoral for the Jiang family to let her drop out of school and tie her to Jiang Qi in marriage.
"Jiang Qi, you really don't know how your family forced her to have a child?"
"And your grandma drugged her repeatedly. Did she ever treat her like a human being? Did anyone ever care about her feelings? Did anyone even remember the kindness her parents showed her? If so, why would she drop out of school?"
"Instead of blaming me, you should blame yourself and the Jiang family."
"If your grandma hadn't drugged her that night, she wouldn't have accepted me, and we wouldn't be together now."
Ji Qi knew very well that it was impossible for him and Jiang Qi to be brothers anymore.
He was willing to make up for it elsewhere, and he could understand Jiang Qi's shock and anger when he suddenly discovered all this, but he could not accept his endless verbal attacks.
In Jiang Qi's eyes, he seemed to be the only one at fault, and he had no real understanding of the problems between him and the Jiang family.
"What did you say? My grandma drugged me again? When did that happen..."
Jiang Qi was stunned on the spot before he could finish his words.
He suddenly thought of that night, when his grandmother came and left the old house, and Xu Lingyi came out of the room not long after, looking very unhappy...
Jiang Qi remembered everything.
At that time he clearly noticed that she was not feeling well.
But because of her refusal, he was angry and did not choose to send her to the hospital for the sake of his so-called face.
Ji Qi said that they were together that day... Jiang Qi understood everything in an instant.
They had a relationship because of this!
Jiang Qi stared at Ji Qi with a sinister look.
Anger burned in his dark eyes, and a cold and violent look flashed across them.
"Ji Qi!"
His heart felt like it was blocked by something, and it was uncomfortable and painful.
If he had been with Xu Lingyi that night... would Ji Qi have had no chance?
