Chapter 317: Chapter 317: He Has A Tendency for Violence
“Shut up!” Lu Lei roared.
Before the wavy-haired woman went in holding her husband’s arm, she left Xi Wanlin with a parting shot: “Do you know why I broke up with him? He has a violent streak, you better be careful!”
Xi Wanlin didn’t make a sound.
Lu Lei imdiately hugged Xi Wanlin, saying, “Linlin, don’t listen to her nonsense. Just looking at her personality just now, you’ll know she’s the one with a violent streak, not ! She is a very vicious woman. She said those things because she can’t stand the sight of . When we were together, she would often hit .”
Xi Wanlin asked, “Did you take her to the mountaineering team?”
“I… did take her once.”
“Then what she said is right. The way you chased her is the sa way you chased . In your eyes, I’m no different from those other won you’ve been with.”
Lu Lei beca anxious: “No, you are different. In my eyes, you are unlike any other woman.”
Xi Wanlin pushed him away: “Liar, I want a divorce!”
“Linlin, please don’t be like this.” Lu Lei went up to her and hugged her tightly, refusing to let go no matter how much she struggled.
“Linlin, I love you, I really love you. Even the lies I told were to win you over. The teammates from the mountaineering team also ant well when they helped . The reason I didn’t end up with those other won is that we weren’t fated to be together, but we made it to the end, right? You are now my wife, Linlin, please don’t leave . I’m scared…”
As he spoke, Lu Lei attempted to forcefully kiss her.
After being kissed for a while, Xi Wanlin’s anger subsided.
I’ve been deceived, what else can I do?
The marriage certificate has already been obtained.
Besides, based solely on the wavy-haired woman’s words, it would be rash to imdiately seek divorce.
…
Su ixi also saw the video of Xi Wanlin’s proposal today.
It was at lunch in the canteen when Wang Bing showed it to her.
“Look, Ah Ze’s ex-wife was proposed to by that man she was seen with, and it seems she accepted. I rember Ah Ze saying he got divorced less than a month ago, and his ex-wife is already getting married?”
Su ixi said, “I heard that the ex-wife was cheating during the marriage.”
“Tsk tsk, Ah Ze is such a good guy, handso and rich, and his ex-wife must be blind to have cheated on him.”
“Handso?” Su ixi asked doubtfully.
Although Li Hengze had lost so weight and was now only 180 pounds, he still looked quite plump.
Wang Bing said, “Isn’t he handso? He has noble facial features, with arched eyebrows and bright eyes, and long eyelashes. If he could slim down to 160 pounds, he’d definitely be a real hunk.”
Wang Bing continued, “But it’s normal for you to not find him attractive since you’re with a handso guy like Gu Wei every day. How could you find soone else handso?”
Su ixi smiled and gave Wang Bing a glance, responding, “Seems like you’ve been in a better mood recently, getting all caught up in gossip.”
“Of course, who wouldn’t be in a good mood after saving so much money on a house? And besides, you don’t know the joys of being single, it’s truly liberating.”
Su ixi shook her head. She didn’t find being single that great, but rather felt really happy being with Gu Wei.
Wang Bing said, “The only hassle about being single is that people always want to set you up. Even the hospital’s cleaning lady wants to set up with soone. She was talking about so great-niece of hers, a civil servant, divorced with a kid. As if I’d marry into that situation to raise soone else’s child. Am I crazy?”
Su ixi burst into laughter.
The situation indeed was comical.
She asked again, “So, you really don’t want to look for a partner?”
“Not looking for anyone.”
“What about soone like Li Hengze?”
“Are you crazy? A third-generation rich kid like him would have to be blind to fancy soone divorced and infertile like . I’m well aware of that. But when I move into my new place, I still want to invite him over for dinner. Regardless if he cos or not, it’s just a gesture.”
Su ixi said, “Of course you should. You saved hundreds of thousands; it’s only polite to invite him over.”
…
In Xi Wanlin’s apartnt, Lu Lei was happily cooking for her.
The apartnt was what Li Hengze left for her when they got divorced.
She has her own apartnt, but it’s not as big as the one from Li Hengze. Lu Lei has been urging her to move out. Having run his own company for many years, he does have so savings, and suggested they could buy a villa. But Xi Wanlin didn’t want the hassle.
There’s a local belief that it’s not good for the fetus if you move beds or hos when pregnant, and she used that as an excuse not to move.
It saved Lu Lei a considerable sum of money.
If they really bought a villa, it would stretch his company’s finances. Although he was a boss, his business in building materials hasn’t been profitable in recent years due to the poor real estate market. He’s even been considering setting soone up lately.
“Linlin, co and eat,” Lu Lei said as he brought out a pot of soup.
Xi Wanlin was scrolling through her phone on the couch, still experiencing morning sickness and with a poor appetite.
“I don’t want to eat.”
“At least eat a little,” Lu Lei urged her.
“I really don’t want to eat. Just the sll of food makes want to vomit,” Xi Wanlin said.
Lu Lei then seed a bit unhappy, “Honey, I worked hard to make this. Show so respect and eat a few bites, at least. Otherwise, it would be wasted, right? And this food wasn’t cheap. Wouldn’t it be such a pity to waste it?”
Xi Wanlin beca irritated in an instant and yelled, “I told you I’m not eating, why do you have to force ? Just throw it away if it’s uneaten!”
Lu Lei got angry too and slamd down his chopsticks: “Do you still think you are the young mistress from before? You’re my woman now. Wherever I go, you follow. Whatever I eat, you eat, right?”
Xi Wanlin cursed, “Sicko!”
Then she went back to her room.
Lu Lei, still angry, ate his al haphazardly before entering Xi Wanlin’s room.
By then, Xi Wanlin was lying on her bed, watching a drama.
Lu Lei sat beside her and snatched her phone away.
“What are you doing?” Xi Wanlin asked.
Lu Lei said, “Are you still hung up on Li Hengze?”
“Are you out of your mind? Give back my phone!”
Lu Lei’s eyes were red: “Linlin, you have to understand, we’re married now. You can’t keep dwelling on the past, on the extravagant lifestyle of the Li Family that I can’t provide for you.”
“Who says I want that kind of life?” Xi Wanlin was speechless with him.
“Then why won’t you even eat your al?”
“I told you I have no appetite, no appetite. Do you understand human language?” Xi Wanlin shouted at him again.
Unexpectedly, Lu Lei slapped her across the face.
Xi Wanlin was stunned into silence for a long ti.
“You, you hit ?”
Lu Lei, looking at his own palm, suddenly said apologetically, “Linlin, I’m sorry, I didn’t an it, I really didn’t an it. I must have lost my temper, please forgive , okay?”
