Luo Yings pupils shrank, and she laughed once more.

“So…” She reached out and took the portion of the agreement that was hers.

“Tonight is your wedding night. I apologize for bothering you.”

Luo Ying got to her feet and prepared to leave. Lin Jin had already passed through the door at this point.

Lin Jin screamed the moment she saw Luo Ying.

“Why are you here?” Lin Jin’s face was twisted. Her meticulously crafted red nails pierced Luo Yings cheek.

“I’ve come to ditch a heartless dog. What’s the matter?”

Lu Zhao laughed at himself as his eyes flickered. Wasn’t that what he’d said about her before?

“Lu Zhao, she’s insulting you. How could you let her stay in our house?” Lin Jin explained.

‘Our house?’ Luo Ying was stunned.

Yes, Lin Jin was the true mistress of this house as of today.

She meant nothing.

Luo Ying scowled. “Then I wish you two a happy marriage for the next century.”

Lu Zhao tried hard to remain calm.

Luo Ying turned around to face Lu Zhao. “When did you decide to marry Lin

“Ah?” Lu Zhao was clearly stunned. He had never liked Lin Jin, and he had never considered this question.

He was surprised when Luo Ying asked him this question.

“It was when I returned from the cruise,” said Lu Zhao.

His flustered expression, however, had already betrayed him.

Luo Ying scowled. “You sure have a quick change of heart.”

Lin Jin had no idea what they were talking about, but she was annoyed to see Luo Ying there.

“Lu Zhao, get her out of here. This is our home.” Lin Jin dashed to Lu Zhao’s side and reached out to grab his hand.

Lu Zhao had reflexively tried to shake her hand off, but he fought his instincts and grabbed her hand.

Lin Jin raised her head proudly and looked at Luo Ying. Her eyes were full of provocation.

“People change, Luo Ying. How could he like a woman like you?”

Luo Ying continued to stare at Lu Zhao instead of Lin Jin.

Lu Zhao’s eyes flickered. It was as if he was trying to avoid her gaze. His grip on Lin Jin was stiffening up as well.

“l see. Let’s go, Brother,” Luo Ying said to Jin Shi with a nod. She picked up the agreement and bag.

Jin Shi gave a nod. He gave Lu Zhao a look before leaving.

The door shut.

Almost simultaneously, he yanked his hand away from Lin Jin’s and looked at

Lin Jin with disgust. “Who told you to come now?”

“l was thinking that we might marry in the future. First and foremost, I wanted to accompany you. Are you sick?” Lin Jin looked at him innocently. She blinked her large eyes.

This was a golden opportunity. She had arrived early to assist Luo Ying with some housework.

“Sirius and the doctor are enough. Who even told you to come here on your own accord?” Lu Zhao’s tone was stern, and he lacked the tenderness that he once showed her.

“Have you forgotten what your mission is?” Lin Jin bit her lower lip firmly.

“l advise you not to have unrealistic expectations of me,” said Lu Zhao.

Lin Jin’s face blanched instantly. She still desired to pursue a relationship with Lu Zhao.

Lu Zhao had asked for her hand in marriage, but it was all a ruse to deceive Luo Ying.

The condition was that Lu Zhao purchase the Lin Group and hand it over to Lin Jin.

“There’s is a room on the third floor. This is my guest room. Feel free. That room has all of the necessary amenities. Don’t come out if there’s nothing else.” Lu Zhao turned around and walked upstairs after he finished speaking.

He took his time walking. Pain spread throughout his body. His body and his heart were both in pain.

He had just spoken harshly to Luo Ying. Sirius was waiting for him upstairs.

Sirius reached out to assist Lu Zhao, but Lu Zhao waved his hand away.

Sirius let out a sigh. “Don’t push yourself.”

Lu Zhao fell to his knees, clutching his heart. He had never been in this much pain in his life.

He had to stop himself from approaching Luo Ying and hugging her.

He was already missing Luo Ying terribly.

“Go buy Luo Yings favorites and put them in the villa,” Lu Zhao told Sirius. “No, I have to stay here and look after you. You’re extremely weak right now,” Sirius insisted..
