In the evening, Liu Jing casually ordered a box of salad takeout and stayed in the study room busily working until twelve o’clock at night. She turned off the computer, took a shower and went to bed.
The next morning, just before dawn, Liu Jing was awakened by the sound of a door slamming.
She lived in a luxurious duplex apartment in a well-known area of the city. It was gorgeously decorated and had excellent sound insulation. At this time, she could clearly hear the sound coming from the entrance, which showed how much strength the person must have used to close the door.
Liu Jing sat up and sneered. She could guess who had come in even with her toes.
Liu Jing slowly got out of bed, washed and dressed. After tidying up, Liu Jing was about to open the door and walk out of the bedroom when she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach. She quickly got into the bathroom and sat on the toilet for more than half an hour.
During this period, Liu Jing wondered if she had eaten something wrong yesterday. She recalled that she had eaten eggs and milk for breakfast at home, the steak for lunch and the salad for dinner were from all old restaurants she frequented.
The only thing left was the apple she had eaten at Xue’s house…
Could it be that she had failed Zu Qi countless times in the past and was punished like this?
Liu Jing suddenly complained in her heart. If she had known better, she would not have eaten the plate of apples. It was her fault that she could not hold back and suffered such a big sin just because of her greedy mouth.
When Liu Jing got up from the toilet, she almost lost her balance and fell to the ground. Fortunately, she held on to the sink next to her in time.
Liu Jing weakly turned on the faucet, washed her hands in a hurry, and was about to walk away when she caught sight of the figure in the mirror out of the corner of her eye. She seemed to suddenly discover something which caused her to momentarily pause.
For a moment, Liu Jing thought she was dazzled.
The acne on her face seemed to have reduced a lot. Even the large acne that was particularly conspicuous on the tip of her nose had disappeared. At first glance, the tip of her nose and the center of her forehead had suddenly become smoother.
If other people came to see it, they would definitely say that Liu Jing still had a lot of acne on her face. However, only Liu Jing, who was always paying attention to her face, knew that a small portion of the acne on her face had disappeared overnight!
Liu Jing was surprised and happy. She subconsciously raised her hand to touch her face. Then she suddenly remembered the doctor’s advice and put her hand down in a hurry.
Never touch your face with your hands, as your hands are full of bacteria.
Liu Jing recited it silently in her heart quickly, and her heart, which was as calm as dead water in the past, was surging at this moment. She never dreamed that she would still have a chance to get rid of the acne on her face.
It seemed that the doctor introduced by Xiao Gao was the right one. Fortunately, she insisted on going more than ten times last month.
The more Liu Jing thought about it, the more excited she became. She quickly wiped her hands, picked up her cell phone and walked out of the bedroom quickly. Just as she was about to dial Xiao Gao’s number, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a man sitting on the sofa waiting impatiently.
Oops, she almost forgot that Kang Qinghua was still at home!
The smile on Liu Jing’s face froze instantly. She hurriedly put away the joy that almost overflowed from her eyes and turned to look at Kang Qinghua expressionlessly.
“Have you finally figured it out and are willing to come out? I thought you were going to hide for the rest of your life.” Kang Qinghua crossed his arms, his square face filled with boredom.
He didn’t even bother to look at Liu Jing, for fear that he would be so sick that he couldn’t eat after seeing the pimples on her face.
It had been almost six years since Liu Jing and Kang Qinghua fell in love. She naturally knew what this man was thinking at this moment, and she felt as if her heart had fallen into icy water.
This was the man she had loved for six years, and now he didn’t even want to look at her.
Liu Jing’s heart was cut by a knife, but she was unexpectedly calm. Yesterday she would have been furious because of this, but today, she suddenly figured it out.
Three-legged toads were hard to find in the world, but two-legged men were everywhere. Her conditions were not bad. Even if she was divorced and had children, there were plenty of opportunities for her to remarry.
More importantly… the acne on her face had begun to heal. As long as those disgusting acne were gone, she could easily return to the radiant appearance of her youth.
Thinking of this, Liu Jing’s last thought of saving the marriage completely disappeared. Her eyes quickly glanced at the divorce agreement placed on the coffee table by Kang Qinghua.
“Since you want to be with that vixen so much, then I will make it happen for you, but I paid for the house and the car, and you can’t take them away.”
Hearing this, Kang Qinghua suddenly felt a little dazed. He thought Liu Jing would hold on for a while longer, but he didn’t expect her to agree to divorce so easily.
For some reason, Kang Qinghua felt a strange feeling of emptiness in his heart.
But this feeling did not last long. Soon Kang Qinghua was attracted by Liu Jing’s words. He suddenly became furious. He patted his thigh, stood up and said, “What do you mean? We have been married for more than three years. I don’t care about you. This is the common property of us husband and wife after marriage, and you have no right to embezzle all our common property!”
Liu Jing looked at Kang Qinghua’s ferocious face very calmly, and suddenly realized that the current Kang Qinghua was completely different from the previous one. After they got married, he gradually revealed his greedy and selfish nature.
It was just that she was blind and had been deceiving herself.
“Common property?” Liu Jing raised her eyebrows, with a look of ridicule in her eyes, “You haven’t contributed a penny to this family. Where did you get the common property? Please show some respect, Kang Qinghua, don’t extend your hands in front of me. Do you really think of yourself as a beggar?”
Kang Qinghua was stunned, and his entire face turned livid for a moment. He glared at Liu Jing with a vicious look, as if he wanted to cut the woman in front of him into pieces with a thousand knives.
But he couldn’t refute Liu Jing… because what Liu Jing said was true. He was indeed like a blood-sucking insect during the marriage, sucking Liu Jing’s blood everywhere.
“Sure enough, a dog can’t change its habit of eating shit. Don’t think that I will still pamper you at this time.” Liu Jing picked up the divorce agreement on the coffee table and tore it into pieces. She sneered and said, “Don’t worry, I will definitely get a divorce, which means the issue of division of property needs to be negotiated by my lawyer. If you are unwilling, we can also meet in court.”
“Liu Jing!” Kang Qinghua said angrily.
Liu Jing smiled coolly at Kang Qinghua, picked up her mobile phone and handbag, then she turned around and left.
As soon as she went out, she put all these troubles behind her and couldn’t wait to dial Xiao Gao’s number on her mobile phone.
“Xiao Gao, the beauty hospital you introduced to me before is so amazing! I woke up after a good sleep today and found that the acne on my face has disappeared a lot. Come on, I’ll treat you to a meal!”
….
Since Weng Yuxiang called Xue Jue to complain a few days ago, Xue Jue had come back to stay for three consecutive days, but he slept on the sofa in the bedroom and went out early and came back late.
If it weren’t for the neatly arranged quilts and pillows placed on the sofa when he woke up in the morning, Zu Qi would have thought that Xue Jue had never come back.
Xue Jue was very busy and could not be seen during the day.
There was no news after Xue Hao was taken away by the police, and Xue Yanjing never came back. Apart from Butler Zhang and the servants, only Zu Qi and Weng Yuxiang were left in the family.
Fortunately, now that Weng Yuxiang had Zu Qi’s company, she didn’t feel as lonely as before. When she had nothing to do, she liked to take Zu Qi to sit in the small garden and chat, and her life was extremely peaceful.
Until that night, when Zu Qi and Weng Yuxiang were sitting at the dining table to eat, and Butler Zhang suddenly ran over and told Weng Yuxiang that Xue Yanjing was back.
Xue Yanjing had become extremely thin, and his hair had turned gray. In addition, his clothes and hairstyle were not as carefully taken care of as before, and he looked as if he had aged more than ten years.
In fact, during this period of time, Xue Yanjing was hiding in his elder brother Xue Yanhong’s house to avoid the limelight. Xue Hao was arrested, Xue company changed its major shareholder, and everything happened like waves, pushing Xue Yanjing to be the target of public criticism.
When he returned to the Xue family company, he was bound to face criticism from the board of directors and may even be implicated in the corruption case involving the Yintai project.
Fortunately, Xue Hao did not expose him or anyone else…
After these things, Xue Yanjing finally understood a lot.
When he brought back Sun Fei and Xue Hao, mother and son, many people in the Xue family stood on his side to help him. But it was just because he was still the majority shareholder of the Xue family at the time and those people had to help him.
Now that Xue Jue outnumbered him in terms of shares and power, those outsiders immediately came to Xue Jue’s side and made irresponsible remarks about him raising a lover.
What a bunch of bastards!
Xue Yanjing was filled with hatred in his heart, but he had to pretend to be weak and pitiful on the surface. He walked straight to Weng Yuxiang, pulled out a chair and sat down, and said with tears in his eyes: “Yuxiang, I’m back.”
Weng Yuxiang didn’t even blink. Lifting her head, she turned a deaf ear to Xue Yanjing’s hardship-filled words and buried her head to concentrate on eating.
Zu Qi didn’t expect that Xue Yanjing would have the nerve to come back after such misfortune. He had to admire Xue Yanjing’s shamelessness. Seeing that Weng Yuxiang didn’t say anything, he tried his best to treat himself as a transparent person.
Little did he know that the next moment, Xue Yanjing’s fire would be directed towards him.
“You -” Xue Yanjing looked at Zu Qi with disgust and said condescendingly, “Go out, we have something to talk about.”
Zu Qi: “…”
Before Zu Qi could react, Weng Yuxiang kept the bowl away expressionlessly and as soon as she put down her chopsticks, she looked at Xue Yanjing coldly and said, “If we are not discussing divorce, then you and I have nothing to say to each other.”
Hearing this, Zu Qi couldn’t help but be a little surprised. He thought that someone with such a weak temperament as Weng Yuxiang would choose to endure it for the rest of her life, he never imagined that she was already considering divorce.
“Divorce?”
“I said, I don’t want to live like this anymore.”
Xue Yanjing’s face was full of disbelief. He couldn’t believe what he heard, let alone that such words would come out of Weng Yuxiang’s mouth.
After a moment of stiffness, Xue Yanjing suddenly turned his head to Zu Qi, gritted his teeth with a ferocious expression and said, “You are the one who is sowing discord, right? You must be the one who taught her to say these things to me!”
