Chapter 149

Author: Qin Ruoxu MACHINE TRANSLATION

The Swimming Pool in front of the villa was sparkling. The specks of sunlight melted into countless ripples, reflecting a dazzling light. It rippled on the surface of the water, like a faint golden dream.

The afternoon breeze blew past, causing the layers of leaves of the Magnolia Tree to rustle. mottled Halos of light leaked through the gaps of the leaves, instantly shining on the girl’s exquisite and beautiful face.

The bright and lively scene also made the tear stains on her face clear.

“Why aren’t you speaking? ”

Qiao man furrowed her beautiful brows, a faint smile hanging on her face “actually, you don’t have to worry about me at all. I think even if I’m blind and get married for the second time, the market won’t be too bad. After all, there are quite a number of men in the celebrity circle who need a trophy wife at home. When the time comes, the best of the best will still be able to live comfortably for the rest of their lives. ”

“that makes sense, but… ” Xie Zhiqian took out a cigarette case from his trouser pocket and lit one himself. He smiled and said, “there may be many men in Lin city who want to marry you, but there will probably be very few men who dare to marry you. ”

Qiao man knew that Xie Zhiqian was not only referring to her reputation, but also that she was Ji Yunshen’s ex-wife.

“Have you forgotten? We haven’t announced it to the public yet, and we haven’t held a wedding yet. We’re just getting a certificate. Moreover, his parents have already started to interfere. In the future, I’ll at most be Ji Yunshen’s ex-girlfriend. As for the rest, you’re worrying too much. ”

Xie Zhiqian took out a cigarette from the cigarette box and handed it to the man who was leaning against the european-style railing. The man took it, played with it in his hand, and said nonchalantly.

“Don’t think like that. What if young master JI suddenly decides to be merciful and reveals his relationship to the public? What can his parents do to you? ”

Qiao Man’s dark eyes were filled with a smile as her cherry lips curled up into a beautiful smile, “if he was such an impulsive person, would he have gotten to where he is today? ”

“Also, you’re not that stupid. How could you not know the real problem? ” “even if he uses that method to make his parents accept me, what will happen in the future? ” As long as he doesn’t leave the JI family and sever his relationship with his parents, there will be countless Tang Qian. So what if he gets married? So what if he reveals it to the public Our marriage won’t last for that long.”

“And I don’t want that either. Ji Yunshen is divorced and is nothing more than a diamond God who has walked out of his marriage. There are plenty of young ladies behind him. What’s there not to see? As for me, I’m blind and I’ve become a second-wife abandoned by everyone. What’s the point? ”

Xie Zhiqian smiled and took a deep breath of the cigarette between his fingers. “It seems that you understand the logic, then what are you still thinking about? Will you make your depression worse? ”

It was as if someone had found out the deepest secret in her heart. Not only was she embarrassed, but she was also embarrassed.

Qiao man lowered her head, and her hands could not help but stir together, as if she was nervous.

After a long while, she said calmly, “All the masters who have experienced love have said this before. Love is the best choice when one is dazzled and dazzled, not a pile of multiple choice questions. Xie Zhiqian, if I could have avoided it in the beginning, I would never have let myself get to where I am today. ”

If she had the ability to avoid those things in the beginning, she would not have accepted her fate, nor would she have chosen to get close to Ji Yunshen.

At that time, she thought that she would definitely be able to escape unscathed, and that she would not have fallen in love with that man.

However, she had really overestimated her defenses and underestimated the charm of that man.

If she fell in love, she would fall in love. She had never thought of avoiding it.

When she was dreaming in the middle of the night, she had even fantasized that if she could really break out of the encirclement, she might be able to grow old together with him.

Even though she knew that he didn’t love her, she knew that he would never fall in love with her.

Unfortunately… …

They were still fated.

“since it’s already a dead end, there’s no need for you to think too much. Just wait for young master JI to make a choice. ” Xie Zhiqian’s voice was a little hoarse from the smoke. He lowered his voice and said, “either I let you go and fulfill my parents’ wish, or… ”

“continue to insist on doing things your own way and sacrifice you. ”

The man who had been standing there for a long time smiled when he heard that. He put the cigarette in his hand close to his thin lips and took a deep breath. The smoke filled the air, making his facial features look exceptionally deep.

“So, no matter what I do, I will become an outsider? ”

Hearing Ji Yunshen’s voice, Qiao Man’s face quickly turned from red to white. She could no longer tell whether she was uneasy or flustered.

“Xie Zhiqian, what did Ji Yunshen give you to make me talk? ”

Xie Zhiqian’s voice sounded very innocent. Qiao man could almost imagine his expression. “I say, Lady Qiao, if I remember correctly, this is also young master JI’s home! ”

In other words, if JI yunshen wanted to walk in, he had no reason to remind him.

Qiao man moved her Cherry Lips, and after a long time, she said, “well, it’s not your fault, it’s my fault for being blind. ”

Xie Zhiqian saw that the atmosphere between the two was too delicate, and then he looked at Qiao man, whose face was full of awkwardness. He quickly put out the cigarette in his hand and said, “Oh, right, Feifei asked me to have afternoon tea. I should go, or else I’ll be late. ”

After saying that, Xie Zhiqian ran away like a cigarette.

The air seemed to suddenly become quiet, and the awkwardness quickly spread.

The man quietly breathed in and out, as if he did not intend to speak.

Qiao man bit her lip and tried to get down from the Rattan Chair. Her hands subconsciously groped in the air, but they suddenly touched the man’s hard and thick chest, like a wall, blocking in front of her.

She retreated as if she had been electrocuted, but she tripped on the Rattan Chair and fell straight forward. Before she could scream, Ji Yunshen’s strong scent of male hormones filled her nose.

“On purpose? ” The man pinched her Chin and smiled. “But Mrs. Ji’s throwing herself into my arms will work at any time. ”

Qiao man struggled, and he increased his strength again. She frowned in pain “Mr. Ji, when will you change your habit of eavesdropping? ” “It’s alright this time. I just told some facts that I know. If I accidentally said that I fell in love with someone else and cuckolded Mr. Ji, wouldn’t I be subjected to domestic violence? ”

With just a few words, he not only expressed her strong dissatisfaction, but also revealed her dissatisfaction with his barbaric and violent interactions with her.

“cuckold me? ” Ji Yunshen’s hand that was holding her Chin increased in strength. He smiled in a low voice and said faintly, “Mrs. Ji, you can try! ”

Her pitch-black eyes, which had lost their brightness, were faintly misty “Ji Yunshen, did I say anything wrong? I think everyone in Lin city knows about what happened that day. Then what? Why haven’t I heard any follow-up reports about it? ”

Ji Yunshen’s abyss-like eyes were tightly locked on her face. He spoke slowly, word by word, “you’ve been silent for so long. What are you feeling wronged for? Come, tell me everything. ”

He released his grip on her jaw and Qiao man was free. She took a small step back and subconsciously kept her distance from him. But, the moment her legs hit something, she felt like she had overestimated herself.

Not to mention, she had overestimated herself after being blind.

“Fine, since you asked me, I’ll tell you, ” she lifted her face and imitated her previous self. “I want Tang Qian to go to jail and pay for everything she’s done. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere fell silent again as she laughed mockingly.

“What’s wrong? Is Mr. Ji Unable to do it? ”

It had already been more than a week, yet she hadn’t heard a single word from Tang Qian.

There were only two explanations for this situation.

One was that Tang Qian had fallen to her death.

The other was that Tang Qian had been acquitted.

Of course, the latter was a lot more likely than the former.

“It can be done, but it will take time. ”

A moment later, the man’s deep and sweet voice continued to speak, as if he was explaining, “my parents aren’t the only ones behind her. There’s someone else. ”

Although Ji Yunshen’s words were vague, Qiao man could roughly guess that the other person was either the person who supported Tang Qian or the new backer she had found.

As for the person who was able to keep Ji Yunshen at bay for so long, he must have a powerful background.

“Oh, is that so! ” Qiao man tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled. “It seems I’ve wronged Mr. Ji. I’m sorry. ”

She lowered her head and did not say a word.

Or perhaps, she didn’t know what to say.

The culprit could not be convicted, and her marriage was in crisis. Even if she was calm, it was impossible for her to be so calm.

He had said what he needed to say, and he must have done what he needed to do.

The rest was up to fate!

“In the end, you’re still blaming me, Huh? ”

This time, he gently lifted her chin. The clear smell of tobacco assaulted her face, taking up her entire breath and that familiar kiss.

She pushed him away and tilted her head to avoid his kiss “Mr. Ji, my emotions are not very stable right now. I’m afraid of doing something that will harm your male dignity, and I’m even more afraid of having nightmares at night that will hurt you badly. So, can you stay away from me? Oh, no, what I mean is, can we sleep in separate rooms? ”

Most couples would be in a Cold War before they got divorced, she thought.

“sleep in separate rooms? ” The man’s fingertips slid across her ear and cheek, all the way to her delicate collarbone. His breathing also came closer. “Well, if Mrs. Ji Insists, then let’s do it! ”

After saying that, the man’s breath was far away. Then, Qiao man heard the sound of the door being closed.

Qiao man bit her lip and groped her way out. She had just taken two steps when the door was pushed open by Zhang Sao. She quickly walked over and helped her up. “Man man, listen to Zhang Sao’s advice. In front of a man, don’t ever think of confronting him head-on. You’ll be at a disadvantage! ”

Qiao man understood the meaning behind Zhang Sao’s words. However, there had to be a point of release. Otherwise, she was really afraid that she would commit suicide.

…

That night, Ji Yunshen did not come back, nor did he call back. It seemed that he was carrying out her suggestion of splitting up the rooms.

That was not right. From the looks of it, it seemed like they were living separately.

However, whether it was splitting up the rooms or living separately, it was no longer important.

She was bored staying there, so she got Zhang Sao to turn on the television for her to listen to the commotion.

Just as she turned on the television, the villa’s door was opened. She followed the sound and looked over, although she could not see anything.

Zhang Sao had seen secretary Yang a few times before, so she walked over to greet him. “Why is Secretary Yang here? ”

Secretary Yang looked at Qiao man, who was sitting on the Sofa. He hesitated for a moment before saying, “Miss Qiao, president JI asked me to come and pick up your mother. ”

It was raining outside, but it was as if the sharpest thing had pierced through her eardrums, creating a loud noise.

Was He telling her that if she didn’t want to be Mrs. Ji, she wouldn’t be able to enjoy the privilege of being Mrs. Ji?

Qiao man was still wondering why Ji Yunshen’s reaction this time was so calm. It turned out that he had no intention of continuing to be angry with her, nor did he plan to coax her. Instead, he used this method to make her have no choice but to accept and compromise the shortcomings of this marriage.

He was indeed a businessman.

“where is he now? ”

Secretary Yang answered respectfully, “in Ziye, with Shen Shaofang, Shao Lin, Shao Fu, Shao Shao and Huo Shao. ”

Qiao man knew that when the few of them gathered together, it was ostensibly a social event, but in fact, it was just a free time to play cards and drink, and also to chat about work.

Perhaps, they would even ask a few women to accompany them.

Qiao man asked with a smile, not a hint of unhappiness. “then can I trouble secretary Yang not to take my mother away first? I want to go and talk to him first. Of course, I’ll have to trouble you to send me over. ”

When asking for help, did she have to be very humble?

Like before, humble and self-centered?

With the help of Zhang Sao, Qiao man changed into a fluffy white lace dress that was just above her knees. Her waterfall-like black hair was casually draped over her shoulders. There was no makeup on, and she looked pure and noble.

Secretary Yang waited in the car. Seeing Qiao man like this, he could not help but be shocked.

No wonder so many men in Lin city flocked to her. They really had the capital to make people go crazy.

The Standard was that a beautiful woman was a disaster.

Outside purple night, she did not ask Secretary Yang to call Ji Yunshen. Instead, she asked him to bring her directly to the private room he was in.

The smoke inside was very thick. As soon as she walked in, she was choked by the thick smoke and began to cough.

Although she had smoked before and had a heavy addiction to smoking, ever since she quit smoking, she had never smelled such a heavy smoke smell. She could not get used to it for a moment and coughed until tears flowed down her face.

The man who was playing cards with his back facing her almost immediately recognized her voice. He pushed the cards and walked over. Qiao man was still coughing when she was embraced by the man.

“Put out your cigarettes. Turn up the ventilation. ”

Everyone in the private room was stunned, including Secretary Yang and the waiter at the side.

Ji Yunshen looked at the male waiter at the side and raised his eyebrows. “Your ears aren’t working properly? ”

Only then did the male waiter recover from his shock and immediately turned up the ventilation.

“Did I disturb you guys? ”

The private room became very quiet. It was too quiet.

Qiao man silently pushed out of the man’s arms and said with a smile, “then I’ll wait outside for a while. I’ll come in after you guys finish playing. ”

Just as she was about to turn around and ask Secretary Yang for help to bring her out, the man behind her pulled her gently and pulled her into his arms again. “You came here to say this? ”

Although Qiao man could not see it, she was very sharp. She could hear the displeasure in the man’s tone and said with a smile, “I thought this would show my sincerity. Sorry, did I make you angry? ”

The man seemed to take a deep breath and then said in a low voice, “come here, give me a hand of cards. ”

“Have you forgotten? I can’t see. Besides, I don’t know how to play. ”

Qiao man didn’t want to go over, she just wanted to say a few words to him and then leave.

“Then why did Xie Zhiqian say that you played cards very well, and made quite a few people in the production team drunk? ”

Sigh, it was hard to pretend to be a lady.

She quietly followed him and sat in his arms.

Except for Ji Yunshen, either he didn’t have a girlfriend, or he was chasing his girlfriend. He was the only one who got married, and he was willing to show off his love in front of everyone.

Fang Jinglun wanted to finish the last cigarette in his hand and throw away the cigarette butt, but when he met Ji Yunshen’s eyes, he directly put out the cigarette butt.

“old JI, do you want to be like a wife-spoiling devil in front of your brothers? Have you never seen a woman in your previous life, or are you too short of women in this life, or is it because lady Qiao’s charm is too great that you can’t tell North from south? ”

Ji Yunshen held the woman’s slender waist with one hand and grabbed the cards with the other. His thin lips lifted slightly. “If you’re envious, just say that you’re envious. There’s no need to beat around the Bush! ”

Fang Jinglun’s choked expression changed. Huo Qingtong sat next to him. In more than ten minutes, he had already glanced at Qiao man more than ten times. Then, he snapped his fingers and called the waiter over. “call a few drinking girls over. ”

Shen Yebai spread his hands, a look of pity, “Zuo Qing will come, I do not need a woman to accompany wine. ”

Fang Jinglun curved his lips and said, “Tong Qin’s plane is coming home at night. I’m leaving early, so I don’t need a woman to accompany me. ”

Fu Qingshan, who was sitting opposite Lin Nancheng, did not say a word. He was playing cards quietly. Lin Nancheng glanced at him and said slowly in a cold and noble voice, “Master Fu, if I remember correctly, you are going to marry my sister next month. Do you need a hostess? ”

Fu Qingshan didn’t even raise his head, staring at the cards in front of him. “If you can’t accept it, you can choose not to marry. I didn’t force anyone from your Fu family. Oh, right, and your sister. ”

Lin Nancheng pushed the cards far away and rushed over to grab Fu Qingshan’s collar. His eyes were red “really? But our Lin family doesn’t seem to force anyone from your Fu family. If you don’t like it, why don’t you tell the elders of your Fu family? I don’t think young master Fu is such a coward! ”

Fang Jinglun and Shen Yebai pulled two people apart and tried to persuade each other.

The waiter stood there with a dumbfounded look on his face. He didn’t know whether to leave or stay.

Huo Qingtong saw him and said, “Go and call them as usual. ”

When the waiter heard that, he was like a fire that was being pardoned. He ran far away in a puff of smoke.

Fang Jinglun pulled the excited Lin Nancheng and tried to persuade him in a low voice “Old Lin, the people involved in this matter are old Fu and Lin Yan. Besides, so what if he’s unwilling? Doesn’t he still have to marry? Don’t let this matter affect our long-standing relationship. Think about it carefully. ”

While the other side was trying to persuade him, Shen Yebai was also trying to persuade him “Old Fu, let go of your obsession. No matter how good Xiao Han is, it’s impossible for you and her to be together. Let’s not talk about the fact that her heart has always been filled with old JI. Is it your parents’ turn to accept that she grew up in an orphanage “Old Fu, no, they can’t accept this kind of criticism. Wake up! ”

Under the persuasion of Fang Jinglun and Shen Yebai, the two of them were no longer angry. They sat at the two ends of the booth, far away from each other.

The drinking girl came over very quickly, so the card game naturally fell through.

Although Qiao man did not witness the farce just now, it was not difficult to hear the tense atmosphere between the two sides from her voice. She came only to appease Ji Yunshen, not to pester him.

Therefore, when the voices of the hostess Rang Out, she suggested, “you play well. I’ll let secretary Yang send me back to rest first. I’m tired. ”

Ji Yunshen lowered his head and lightly pecked her Cherry Lips. “Is this Mrs. Ji’s sincerity in seeking peace? ”

After saying that, he let go of her and left.

Qiao man could not see. Other than being at a loss, she was also flustered.

She lowered her head and nervously twirled the skirt on her legs with both hands.

When the hostess saw Ji Yunshen walking over, she hurriedly moved to a seat to welcome him. “CEO JI, I’ll drink with you, alright? ”

Ziye’s boss had good taste. The women he found were all the pure type.

One had to know that in today’s society, men liked the women in romantic places and pretended to be pure on purpose.

Not only could he satisfy the evil taste in his heart, but he could also satisfy the pleasure of being high and mighty.

Ji Yunshen frowned, but he wasn’t angry at all. He smiled and said, “my wife is sitting there. Do you think it’s appropriate for you to drink with me? ”

The hostess glanced over and knew that the woman was the one who had pushed the superstar Tang Qian downstairs a few days ago. But… … was she president JI’s wife ? ?

“I’m sorry, President Ji. I didn’t know. ”

Ji Yunshen leaned over and took a glass of wine from the short table. He took a SIP and said, “So, can you get the hell out of here? ”

The hostess stood up and walked out. Qiao man was sitting on the other side of the table. The noise was so loud that she couldn’t hear who was talking.

The sense of defeat was like a tidal wave, surging over.

Zuo Qing took the car outside the purple night, and Shen Yebai went to pick her up. Under the light, the woman’s small face was filled with a bright smile, which was so piercing that it hurt people’s eyes.

“will I stop you from playing? ”

Zuo Qing had never appeared when Shen Yebai was playing with his friends. Firstly, the two of them used to consider themselves friends, so they did not have the chance. Secondly, she did not like nightclubs, even though she had been here many times.

Shen Yebai’s eyes were full of love, and he said with a faint smile, “I was going to say that I’m stopping you, do you still want to go in? ”

Zuo Qing pouted and was very unhappy. “Alright, since I’m late for young master Shen’s fun, I’ll take my leave first. ”

Just as she turned around, she was pulled into the man’s arms, and the kiss followed.

Zuo Qing’s body went soft, and her hands instinctively clung onto the man’s neck like water.

After a long while, he kissed enough before saying, “your little mouth doesn’t tell the truth, but your body is quite honest. ”

The man’s words of love were all the same, but for some reason, they were so alluring.

Zuo Qing reached out and knocked on his chest. “Shen Yebai, can’t you be a little more serious? ”

“If I were a little more serious, would you still like me? ”

Her lips pressed against her ear, seducing him bit by bit. “That night, you said you wanted to be faster and be a little more evil! ”

Zuo Qing could not stop him from teasing her. She could only throw herself into his arms, not moving at all.

Shen Yebai laughed in a low voice, and his chest started to vibrate. After a while, he held the little girl in his arms and walked into the purple night.

The two of them, who were immersed in their sweetness, completely did not notice that a camera in the corner was flashing its shutter, capturing everything that had just happened.
