The man was about forty years old, dressed casually, with a dark complexion and his collar was not turned up. It was obvious that he worked on construction sites all year round.
Seeing that the man was about to walk up to him, Li Yang no longer bothered to confirm whether the man was Xu Xiangdong, and turned around and ran downstairs.
When the man saw Li Yang running away without looking back, he immediately guessed the purpose of Li Yang's coming here. He thought to himself that something was wrong and chased downstairs.
The man was a contractor in the area and a man of some respect. He didn't care whether Li Yang caught the adultery or not. If she made a big deal out of her husband's infidelity and exposed herself, the tigress at home would be furious.
The best way at the moment is to hold Li Yang down, use threats and inducements to stop her from going out and talking nonsense.
Of course, if he could coax Li Yang into being with him, she would be happier than ever. Her husband was already cheating on her anyway, so why would she keep her chastity for him?
Li Yang almost fainted when he heard the heavy footsteps of a man behind him.
If I were caught cheating on someone else's property, I wouldn't know what would happen to me. I could only quicken my pace and run downstairs in two steps.
However, the corridor was dark and the man was chasing her so quickly that Li Yang accidentally stepped on empty air in a panic. She lost control of her body and was about to fall downstairs.
At this critical moment, a figure rushed up from the corner below the stairs, and then the person was grabbed by the waist. The person fell into the arms of the person and was pulled back a step before he could stabilize his body.
Li Yang thought that the other party was in the same group as the man, and subconsciously wanted to struggle. However, when he smelled the familiar fresh scent from the person, he hesitated for a moment.
Then, Ji Huaizhi's cold voice came from above his head: "It's me, don't be afraid."
The panic of the previous second was instantly calmed down with the appearance of Ji Huaizhi, like a deer that broke into the hunter's encirclement and suddenly found a chance of survival in a desperate situation.
She no longer resisted, and leaned against Ji Huaizhi half exhausted, with an ugly smile on the corner of her lips: "Ji Huaizhi."
The man was about to catch up with Li Yang when suddenly another man appeared out of nowhere. It was obvious that they knew each other, so he quickly stopped.
He straightened his collar, pretending to be unconcerned, and deliberately mocked, "Why are you running? Aren't you a prostitute too?"
The man obviously thought Li Yang was a lady here and Ji Huaizhi was a client. As he spoke, he glanced at Li Yang a few more times with ill intentions.
As the words fell, the atmosphere around him froze. Ji Huai sneered, and then he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. The next second, he fell to the ground.
The man covered his aching abdomen before realizing that he had been kicked by Ji Huaizhi.
Without a second thought, he opened his mouth and started to curse. At this moment, Ji Huaizhi took a step closer to him, stepped on his chest, pinned him to the ground, and said in a voice as cold as an Asura: "Watch your mouth."
The dim light shone in from the small window at the corner of the stairs, falling on Ji Huaizhi's sharp profile. His cold eyebrows and eyes were frozen as he looked at him without any emotion, which startled the man.
The person he was teasing turned out to be Ji Huaizhi!
The man had been working as a contractor in this area for many years, so he naturally knew Ji Huaizhi. However, he had only seen him from a distance and had no chance to get close to him.
Now that the opportunity has come, it turns out to be like this.
The man was annoyed, but immediately put on a flattering smile and slapped himself twice without hesitation: "It turned out to be Boss Ji! I'm blind, I didn't recognize him!"
He nodded repeatedly to Li Yang, "Miss, I'm really sorry for being so blunt. Please don't take it to heart!"
Even if Li Yang was a young lady in this building, so what? Who made her lucky enough to be with Ji Huaizhi? Not only him, but everyone who knew Ji Huaizhi had to give her face.
Li Yang quickly understood the man's sudden change in attitude. She was worried that Xu Xiangdong would notice her because of the noise, so she suppressed her displeasure and said to Ji Huaizhi, "Let's go."
It was obvious that this man had a family and children, and she didn't want to talk to someone like him.
Seeing that Li Yang's face was a little pale, Ji Huaizhi knew that she wanted to leave as soon as possible. Without saying anything else, he gently pulled her wrist, turned around and took her downstairs.
Ji Huaizhi took Li Yang for a distance, sat down in a dessert shop, and asked her what she wanted to eat.
After what happened just now, Li Yang was not in a good mood and just shook his head: "No thanks."
Ji Huaizhi didn't force it. He tapped the table lightly with his slender fingers and looked at her coldly, neither hurried nor slow.
Li Yang lowered her eyes, feeling that Ji Huaizhi, who was sitting opposite her, exuded an invisible aura, which made her lower her head involuntarily.
She knew that she had appeared here rashly today and met Ji Huaizhi under such circumstances, so she should give him an explanation.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "I originally came here with Yao Yunxiang to look for classmates, but then I ran into my cousin...brother-in-law, so I followed him."
Hearing this, Ji Huaizhi frowned slightly: "Cousin-in-law?"
Li Yang nodded, anger showing on his face: "It was my cousin who came to our house that day, and her husband."
Ji Huaizhi nodded: "Then what are you going to do?"
Li Yang sighed and shook his head: "I don't have a good solution for now."
If she were Li Xue, and found out her man was cheating on her, she would definitely divorce him and leave immediately.
But she is not Li Xue, and Li Xue is not her.
Li Xue has always been weak in character. When she was at her parents' home, she was instilled with the so-called spirit of dedication. When she went to her husband's home, she was suppressed by her mother-in-law and did not know what resistance was.
Especially now that she is pregnant again, she will choose to endure it for the sake of the child, which is also what she is worried about.
Because based on her understanding of Li Xue, she would not choose to divorce regardless of whether she knew about Xu Xiangdong's affairs.
If this was the premise, then what was the point of her telling Li Xue? It would only make Li Xue even more sad.
Just when she thought Ji Huaizhi would not comment on this matter, she heard him say, "Sometimes, a white lie is still a lie after all."
If she chooses to hide it from Li Xue now, will Li Xue blame her when she finds out in the future?
Li Yang's hesitant eyes suddenly brightened up, and he smiled and said, "I know what to do. Thank you."
No matter what, Li Xue has the right to know the truth. As for what choice she will make, it is up to Li Xue herself.
Seeing that she had figured it out, Ji Huaizhi nodded: "I'll take you back."
Li Yang, having sorted out his thoughts, stood up and asked his own question: "By the way, what are you doing here?"
Ji Huaizhi's face showed a rare trace of embarrassment, and he cleared his throat: "That..."
