Chapter 55 Showing No Mercy
Su Jin's words made the already unpleasant atmosphere even more tense and awkward.
Zhou Zhenxing's face flushed red instantly, but what he was even less willing to believe was his ears.
The woman who always obeyed him and never dared to raise her voice at him has now made him lose face like this.
And the person standing next to him was the one he cared about most.
What's so shameful about me?
She forced herself to remain calm and composed.
Just as he was waiting for Su Jin to say something more, Su Jin looked at Zhuo Lanyu.
“Zhou Zhenxing and I are divorced. From now on, we have no relationship and no connection whatsoever. You don’t need to direct your hostility at me, nor do you need to seek your own sense of superiority through the failure of my marriage. Of course, there is no need to go to any trouble to target me. We were strangers to begin with, and I hope we will remain so.”
Clearly and decisively stating one's attitude without showing any leniency to the other party.
Zhuo Lanyu's face also burned, and she subconsciously denied it, "I didn't..."
"You know best whether it's true or not. If I've misunderstood you, I apologize. But there's really no need for this meal today." Su Jin had no intention of arguing with the two of them. After saying that, she turned and went back to the guesthouse.
Both Zhou Zhenxing and Zhuo Lanyu were deeply moved at this moment.
They have a secret they desperately want to hide, a sense of shame about it being made public, and this secret itself cannot be brought to light.
Especially Zhuo Lanyu, although she has always denied that she is hostile towards Su Jin, how could her insistence on meeting today be entirely out of goodwill?
uncomfortable.
This feeling is really uncomfortable.
Zhou Zhenxing was the first to come to his senses, and even the atmosphere between him and Zhuo Lanyu changed.
Awkward and awkward.
“Lan Yu, I apologize to you on her behalf. She’s not usually like this. I just gave her the divorce certificate, and she probably can’t accept it right away, which is why she’s acting so incoherently.”
This provided a plausible explanation for Su Jin's "abnormality".
Zhuo Lanyu was also trying to calm herself down, and said with some self-reproach, "Brother Zhou, should I not have come along today?"
Zhou Zhenxing wanted to affirm her actions, but he couldn't bring himself to say the words.
"She's in a bad mood, there's no need for us to take it personally."
Zhuo Lanyu was full of apologies. "Perhaps my appearance upset her. Brother Zhou, didn't you say she had amnesia and didn't remember her family or situation at all? Now that you're divorced, she definitely won't be able to make a living. I can help her find a job to support herself."
Actually, she had planned to offer to help after meeting Zhou Zhenxing's ex-wife, but she never expected things to turn out this way.
“We thought of the same thing, but when I told her, she refused.” Zhou Zhenxing said with a helpless expression.
Zhuo Lanyu said, "She's still angry with you right now, so of course she'll refuse, but she'll definitely be grateful to you later. But let me handle this matter, since my family has a lot of connections in Beijing."
Zhou Zhenxing knew Zhuo Lanyu's family background, and if it were her, she could indeed arrange a better job for Su Jin.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you. Lan Yu, considering how Su Jin treated you just now, you're still so considerate of her. You're truly wonderful."
That last compliment was absolutely from his heart.
Moreover, what Su Jin said was practically the punctured layer of ambiguity between the two, so there was no need for any further concealment.
