Lin Jiayi struggled to break free from Li Guangyuan’s hand, "I really can’t listen anymore, there’s porridge cooking in the pot, it’s going to burn."
Li Guangyuan, however, refused to let her go, "Weren’t you just very concerned about ? How co now you care more about a pot of porridge? If it burns, we’ll just eat it like that. This dream of mine is a rare one, you must listen carefully."
He gazed out the window, his face filled with fascination, "We started a food factory, and I beca Director Li. The food factory grew bigger and bigger, and later we ventured into other businesses. Those businesses didn’t even need my involvent, Lin Chuxia could handle them all by herself, but she still didn’t want to be a leader. She respected as her husband, putting first in everything. Later on, we founded a company, and I beca the general manager..."
Lin Jiayi’s face couldn’t even be described as terrified, her whole body was trembling.
How did he know about these things...?
And the things he said earlier, one could guess that he was so eager to get rich, seeing Lin Chuxia succeed in business, driven to madness by greed.
After all, when the matchmaker first proposed, they did say it was Lin Chuxia, so it’s understandable for him to have such fantasies.
But the things he said later made it impossible for Lin Jiayi to deceive herself.
Those things clearly happened in the past life; he described how they obtained those businesses in detail.
How does he know?
Looking at Lin Jiayi’s expression, Li Guangyuan’s face finally turned cold.
Almost with a grotesque face, he asked her, "I’m asking you one last ti, why did you switch marriages with Lin Chuxia back then? Why did you marry ? This is your last chance, you better think carefully before you speak. Lin Jiayi, you were originally supposed to marry Qin Yang and be alone in an empty house, and now in this life, you’ve married , not only have you experienced the pleasure of being a woman, but you’ve also had a son. Is this how you repay ?"
With the last words, Li Guangyuan gave a fierce shake, throwing Lin Jiayi violently to the ground.
And the words that followed erased even her last hope.
He knows, he knows everything.
Lin Jiayi lay on the ground and suddenly started laughing, then she cried while laughing.
"Why? Why else? In the past life, Lin Chuxia married a poor boy like you and ended up living a prosperous life, with your love and an endless supply of money, living a life everyone envied. And what about ? Everyone said I married well, yet I lived a life worse than neither human nor ghost. When heaven gave another chance to choose, of course, I chose the best one. But who knew, the glamorous President Li, lauded entrepreneur by everyone, turned out to be nothing but a kept man climbing to the top. Without Lin Chuxia, Li Guangyuan is just a worthless pauper..."
Li Guangyuan stood up in anger, lifted his leg, and kicked, "You bitch, you were the one who hard , it turns out all of this is your fault..."
Lin Jiayi laughed through tears, and even as Li Guangyuan punched and kicked her, she continued laughing...
...............
When Lin Chuxia and Gu Peng returned, a light rain was falling in Yan City.
The drizzle wasn’t heavy, but it washed away the sumr heat of Yan City.
As Lin Chuxia got off the train, she imdiately saw Qin Yang waiting at the station and quickly walked over with her luggage.
Qin Yang held an umbrella over her, shielding her completely, and took over her luggage.
His eyes never left her face, "You’ve tanned, and lost weight, must have had a hard ti over there, right?"
"It’s true I tanned, but not necessarily lost weight; I didn’t feel it was hard at all. The scenery over there is great. Going out made feel very relaxed."
She was telling the truth.
They had been running around a lot recently to investigate a suitable site for planting dicinal herbs, which naturally led to getting tanned.
The natural scenery over there was very beautiful, standing on the hillside looking into the distance, she felt refreshed and happy.
Lin Chuxia really enjoyed that feeling.
Seeing her in good spirits, Qin Yang finally felt the burden he had been carrying for days lift.
"The car is outside, let’s hurry, it’s a bit chilly today."
With that, he protectively steered her to the exit.
Lin Chuxia helplessly pulled him back, "Do you have another umbrella?"
Gu Peng was still behind her.
This man, she really didn’t believe it if he said it wasn’t intentional.
It’s the first ti she’s seen him being so petty.
Qin Yang was startled for a mont, suddenly realizing the problem.
"I only brought this one umbrella, otherwise you two go to the car first, I can catch up quickly."
Lin Chuxia, "..."
At this mont, Gu Peng directly said from behind her, "Mr. Lin, I’m not going the sa direction as you. I’m heading back first."
With that, without waiting for Lin Chuxia’s response, he strode away into the rain.
Lin Chuxia was amused and exasperated, glancing at Qin Yang, "Let’s go, we should head back too."
Qin Yang imdiately grinned, "Mom and Qi Qi have been eagerly waiting for you at ho."
Not just Ms. Zhuang and little Qi Qi, Old Master He was also at the family quarters.
Learning Lin Chuxia would return today, Old Master He was eager to hear about the inspection results.
Ms. Zhuang prepared dumpling fillings; dumplings were just perfect for a rainy day.
The family bustled over making dumplings while chatting about the inspection this ti.
Of course, Lin Chuxia maintained a cheerful deanor, only ntioning so of the challenges encountered and the positive attitude from the Yun City County Governnt.
Old Master He, upon hearing that the matter seems settled, joyously ate a few more dumplings.
anwhile, Gu Peng reached his residence, opened the door, and saw a note tucked in the door fra, with only a few brief words on it: The person has been found.
After reading it, Gu Peng crumpled the note and tossed it into a nearby wastebasket.
He then threw his luggage bag onto a chair and took off his wet clothes.
In no ti, he was stark naked.
Picking up a towel hanging on the washstand, he casually wiped his wet hair.
He then opened the wardrobe to find clean clothes.
The wardrobe had quite a few clothes, so of which were bought with Lin Chuxia initially and so he bought himself.
Finally, he picked a shirt and put it on.
If Lin Chuxia were there, she would have noticed that the shirt he was wearing was identical to the one she had bought for Qin Yang.
After changing clothes, the rain outside had lessened, and he didn’t bother with an umbrella, just grabbed a baseball cap and put it on before heading out.
Ever since Lin Chuxia got the Santana, she handed the Jeep to Gu Peng for his convenience.
After all, Gu Peng represented her when handling matters externally.
But today, Gu Peng drove the Jeep, not for Lin Chuxia’s errands, but directly back to Ancheng County.
It was still that small courtyard on West Street, the Jeep parked at the courtyard gate, and soone ca out of the house.
Hui Zi ca up first, "Brother Gu, when did you get back? A few days ago, a brother sent you a ssage, but you weren’t in Yan City, so he left a note for you in the door fra."
