Chapter 9

Lin Jingxuan was startled by the slap. His mind turned blank and there was a buzzing sound in his ears. One side of his face was hot and burning. He widened his eyes in shock, taking a long time to recover himself.

Ye Erruo rubbed her palms and smiled softly. “I am sorry, Jingxuan. I am in a very bad mood after what Mo Jiangye did to me yesterday. I could not stifle my anger and I could not help but lose it after your passionate confession. Are you okay?”

The blue veins could be seen clearly on Lin Jingxuan’s forehead. He licked his inner cavity and clenched his fists, anger flashed in his eyes.

“You are bleeding. Jingxuan, I am really sorry. It was really a spur of the moment. I was too moved, therefore…” She was at a loss.

“Never mind. I understand. Ruoruo, if you still blame me, I deserve to be slapped. If this slap can appease your anger, it is alright with me.”

Ye Erruo felt like lifting her hands to slap him again, but she stopped herself in the end.

“I won’t be in a good mood these days. Jingxuan, stop looking for me for the time being. Give me some time to calm down. Besides, Mo Jiangye said that he forbids the two of us from seeing each other, otherwise he will beat you to death.”

Lin Jingxuan panicked. “Ruoruo, when will you stop being angry with me? Are you really going to move out with Mo Jiangye? We won’t get to see each other often in the future.”

“Well… I will take the time to think about it.”

“Think? What do you want to think about!!??” He asked, feeling wary.

“Of course I have to think about how to get a divorce with Mo Jiangye. We just collected the marriage certificate today. I have to think of ways to get the divorce papers. Otherwise, how do I go to a faraway place with you?” She said in a mocking tone.

Lin Jingxuan breathed a sigh of relief. “I see.”

“What else did you think it was?” Ye Erruo looked at him with a vague smile. He felt guilty under her gaze and he hurried to look away.

“Actually, Ruoruo, we only need to continue with our plan. You can help me to drive Mo Jiangye out of the Lin family and to get the power in the Lin family. By then, one word from me and you will get to divorce Mo Jiangye.”

“You should know that Mo Jiangye is simply a wild kid. He is the wild child that the Lin family rescued from somewhere. But this ungrateful guy did not know to return the favor. Instead, he usurped power to take control of the Lin family. He is too much. If he didn’t hinder us, we would have been together long ago.”

Ye Erruo lowered her cold eyes, she exuded a chilly aura at the mention of “wild kid”.

“Okay, I will help you.”

He took her hand suddenly and kissed it. “My wife, Ruoruo, thank you.”

Ye Erruo retracted her hand, disgusted by his actions. “I will go upstairs and rest.”

“Sure. Even if you move out of this old mansion, you can contact me anytime as long as you want to see me. Have a good rest and don’t be angry with me anymore.”

Ye Erruo walked past him to the second floor, with a cold expression on her face, her red lips curled up into a mocking smile.

“If you dare to let out a single word about what you saw today, I will make sure that your entire family will die without any bones left.”

All the servants hurried to leave the room and promised not to say a word. “We didn’t see anything.”

Lin Jingxuan raised his eyes to look at Ye Erruo who had went back to the room, coldness evident in his eyes. He took out his cell phone and dialed a number in anger.

“Hello, honey, do you miss me?”

“Ye Erruo? That b***h seems weird. Come over here and see for yourself. She is moving out of the old mansion.”

“What!!?? Move out of the old mansion?”
