On the way, neither of them spoke again, and Ji Niandong’s tears had already dried up. She just sat beside him blankly with her eyes wide open. When the car stopped, she suddenly seed to wake up, unfastened the seatbelt, and pushed the door open to leave. Lu Beichen grabbed her arm and opened his mouth to say, "Tongtong, I love..."
"Don’t say it!" She interrupted him, "Saying it now makes it seem cheap! Or maybe you just want to trick into being a compliant Mrs. Lu?"
Lu Beichen slowly let go of her hand, feeling that at this mont, she was strangely unfamiliar. Her expression and coldness were just like back then.
If he could have understood at that ti, would all of this have happened? But if he could have understood back then, would he have cherished it so much?
As his hand loosened, Ji Niandong turned away without hesitation.
After walking a few steps, a figure suddenly obstructed her path. Lu Beiyao stood tall before her and spoke with his head down, "Did she ask you to co?"
Ji Niandong looked up at him. His handso, fair face appeared haggard, with stubble erging on his lips and chin, lacking the usual spirited appearance, as if sothing was missing.
"Did she ask you to co?" Seeing her silent, Lu Beiyao anxiously asked again.
Ji Niandong turned to glance at Lu Beichen, who was also getting out of the car, and scoffed coldly, "Whether she did or not, what does it matter to you, big brother? Moreover, I’m about to divorce Lu Beichen, and you won’t be my brother-in-law anymore. Move aside!"
Lu Beiyao was suddenly shocked upon hearing they were getting divorced, his alert body and mind eased, and Ji Niandong brushed past him and walked inside.
Only then did Lu Beiyao look at Lu Beichen leaning against the car, "Did she say you two are getting divorced?"
He thought he misheard, clearly the two were so in love, so much that he actually envied them to the point of madness.
"Tell , what’s going on with you and sister-in-law?" Lu Beichen took out a cigarette and smoked silently, while the phone in his pocket still vibrated. He finally answered it and opened his mouth to say, "Zhu Yiming, co out for a drink with !"
"I’m going too!" Lu Beiyao stepped forward and got into Lu Beichen’s car.
Lu Beichen took a sharp drag of the white smoke, turned around, got into the car, and drove away.
"How can you and Tongtong get divorced? You’re clearly so good together?" Lu Beiyao couldn’t understand at all.
"First answer my question."
He was still so cold and superior, Lu Beiyao sneered, "I’ve always envied you. You suddenly married Tongtong and cherished her so much. From what I know about you, you’re definitely not just intrigued briefly. How could you ss up a marriage like this?"
"If you know I’m not interested briefly, then you should know there was a reason for marrying her. Now, it’s just unclear and inexplicable."
"You can still be so calm at a mont like this. Indeed, you’re better than !"
This is probably the first ti in Lu Beiyao’s life he acknowledged he was better than himself.
Lu Beichen flicked the cigarette from his hand out of the window, indifferent, "To my knowledge, although you have many won outside, recently most of them have been cleared out. You even stopped caring for Liu Xinyu, whom you’ve financially supported for years. Why suddenly are you quietly preparing for a divorce?"
"You’re quite clear!" Lu Beiyao sneered, "If I say I haven’t had any relations with those won, do you believe ?"
"If I say there hasn’t been a second woman in my life, and Tongtong is Nian Nian’s mother, do you believe ?"
