At the Violet Wedding Dress Shop.
“Director Jiang, these are the latest wedding dresses that were flown over from Paris overnight according to your request. Every piece was personally designed by a top master. It hasn’t been announced to the public yet.” The wedding consultant stood beside Jiang Yanshen and was as respectful as if she was serving the Emperor.
Jiang Yanshen hummed indifferently. His gaze swept across the wedding dress and finally locked onto Lin Qingqian’s face. “Pick something you like.”
Lin Qingqian sat there without moving. She did not even look at the wedding dresses that were worth tens of millions. Instead, she said with a cold expression, “What is the meaning of this?”
Jiang Yanshen said, “We’ll hold a wedding in half a month. You can hold the wedding anywhere you want. Lu Yuan will arrange everything.”
Lu Yuan revealed an awkward but polite smile. He didn’t know what was wrong with Director Jiang last night. He suddenly said that he wanted to hold a wedding in half a month.
If not for the fact that he said that the time was too tight, Director Jiang would probably have gone ahead with the wedding in a week.
Lin Qingqian was not as happy as Jiang Yanshen had expected. She grabbed his arm and sighed softly, “Ah Yan, Ah Yan.” Then, she stood up and left.
Jiang Yanshen frowned and stood up to hold her slender wrist. “Where are you going?”
Lin Qingqian didn’t know where she got the strength from, but she shook off his hand and turned to look at him. She was so angry that her chest was heaving.
“Jiang Yanshen, I want a divorce, not a wedding!” She gritted her teeth and said, “I’m not going to have a wedding with you!!”
Jiang Yanshen’s expression darkened.
When Lu Yuan saw that the atmosphere was not right, he immediately gave the wedding consultant a look and the two of them tactfully left.
“Lin Qingqian, how long are you going to cause trouble?” Jiang Yanshen’s thin lips twitched slightly, and his cold voice contained anger.
“Heh!” Lin Qingqian laughed in anger. “Jiang Yanshen, do you still think that I’m playing hard to get?”
Jiang Yanshen frowned coldly as his dark eyes stared at her plain face. It was only at this moment that he was finally sure that Lin Qingqian really wanted a divorce.
But she had proposed a divorce without warning or reason.
“Why?” Even Jiang Yanshen, who had always felt that other people’s thoughts were not important, could not help but ask.
Lin Qingqian did not answer and asked instead, “Jiang Yanshen, do you love me?”
Jiang Yanshen fell silent.
Love?
In the past 28 years, he had never known what “love” was!
Father Jiang had died early, and Mother Jiang was busy doing beauty shopping and playing mahjong every day. The Old Madam had only taught him how to survive in this world filled with wolves, tigers, and leopards.
“Jiang Yanshen, you’ve never loved me. You don’t even like me. If I become lost in a crowd, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to recognize me.” Lin Qingqian looked straight at him as she said this. She didn’t even have the intention to cry anymore.
Jiang Yanshen’s expression was calm, but his tense jawline betrayed his unhappy emotions. “You loved me, so I had to marry you. Now that you want a divorce, I have to agree to it?”
He paused for a moment, his thin lips filled with mockery. “Lin Qingqian, do you think that it’s so easy to get rid of me, Jiang Yanshen?”
Lin Qingqian held her breath. Of course, she knew that Jiang Yanshen had never been an easy person to dismiss. Otherwise, how could he become a legend in Lan City?
“I know that Grandma had lied to you back then by pretending to be sick. It’s also my fault for not telling you out of selfishness. But isn’t three years enough to compensate for this mistake?”
