In the cafe, by the window
Sheng Yufei glared at Tong Qiao angrily, looking as if she wanted to eat her up.
Tong Qiao, on the other hand, was in an extremely good mood. Sheng Yufei wanted to kill her but could only stare at her helplessly, which made her feel especially relieved. She leisurely took a sip of coffee, looked up at Sheng Yufei opposite her, and said in an indifferent voice, "Your eyes are about to pop out of their sockets."
Sheng Yufei's chest heaved violently, and she sneered, "Tong Qiao, I really didn't expect you to be such a despicable person who plays dirty tricks behind people's backs."
Tong Qiao smiled faintly. "You've always been playing tricks behind people's backs. In the past, I was too stupid. I wanted to fight you openly, and that's why your dirty tricks succeeded time and time again. On the surface, I had the upper hand, but in reality, your true colors were hidden. Later, I thought it through. To deal with people like you, I should give you a taste of your own medicine. There's no need to be open and aboveboard with a despicable person like you."
"Don't be happy too early. I won't let go of Jin Shen so easily. After all, we were once husband and wife, and we still have Ziqian between us. He won't abandon the two of us. Ziqian and I will always be a thorn in your side …" As Sheng Yufei spoke, she caught a glimpse of Lu Jinshen entering the cafe. The anger on her face immediately disappeared, and it was replaced by a look of guilt.
Tong Qiao was curious about why Sheng Yufei's expression suddenly changed. When she looked up and saw Lu Jinshen walking over, she suddenly understood. She didn't want to see Sheng Yufei act, but she also wanted to give Lu Jinshen some space to deal with Sheng Yufei's matter. She got up and said to Lu Jinshen, "You guys continue chatting. I'm going out to get some fresh air."
Lu Jinshen sat down on Tong Qiao's seat. He took out a cigarette box and lit it.
Sheng Yufei didn't know how much Lu Jinshen had heard of her conversation with Tong Qiao. Since Lu Jinshen didn't say anything, she didn't dare to open her mouth. She lowered her head and sat there, looking quiet and docile.
After a long while, Lu Jinshen's deep and magnetic voice sounded. "I'll take care of Ziqian. You can find someone to marry."
Sheng Yufei suddenly raised her head and looked pitifully at Lu Jinshen. "Aren't you afraid that Zihua will be sad?"
Lu Jinshen retracted his gaze from the window and looked at Sheng Yufei through the faint smoke. "If Zihua knows this in the underworld, I believe he will wish you happiness."
Sheng Yufei's eyes instantly reddened. "You heard my conversation with Tong Qiao?"
"Yes." Lu Jinshen frowned and took a deep puff of the cigarette. His voice was very deep. "Zihua is my brother. I will never touch his woman."
Sheng Yufei wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and looked at Lu Jinshen affectionately. "If I wasn't Zihua's fiancée, would you like me?"
Lu Jinshen looked at Sheng Yufei in a daze. He obviously didn't expect her to say such words. "Zihua loves you so much. How could you …"
"I used to love him very much too." Sheng Yufei sobbed and interrupted Lu Jinshen's words. "But when I was at my worst, you were always by my side to take care of me. When I was sick, you stayed by my bedside all night. You ignored everyone's objections and curses and resolutely married me. When I gave birth, you accompanied me to the hospital. For so many years, no matter how big or small, you were always the first to appear in front of me as long as something happened to me. I am a woman, a lonely woman with no one to rely on. How could I be indifferent when faced with someone like you?"
Lu Jinshen's fingers tightened around the cigarette. "I'm sorry. I didn't know that I would bring you so much trouble."
Sheng Yufei cried and shook her head. "I don't want your apologies. Since you promised Zihua that you would take care of me for the rest of my life, I want you for the rest of your life."
Lu Jinshen's eyes darkened. "Didn't we agree that we would divorce after five years and go our separate ways to find our own happiness?"
"I regret it. I didn't know that I would fall in love with you."
"But I don't love you …"
"No, I don't believe it. You care for me so much. I don't believe that you don't have any feelings for me at all."
"The reason why I treat you like this is all because of Zihua. You are his sweetheart. He sacrificed his life for me, so it is natural for me to take care of you. I have never had any romantic feelings for you. In my heart, I have always treated you as my sister-in-law …"
Sheng Yufei's head shook like a rattle drum, and her tears fell like beads from a broken necklace. "Don't say it, don't say it. I don't want to hear it."
Lu Jinshen had no intention of stopping. "I love Qiao 'er. I never knew that love could be so passionate. I want to give my everything to her, including my life …"
"Don't say it, please don't say it." Sheng Yufei cried until her tears and snot were a mess. She had thought that Lu Jinshen might not love her, but she had never thought that he would love Tong Qiao so deeply. She supported herself on the table and stood up, then turned and walked towards the door.
Lu Jinshen saw that Sheng Yufei was twisting and turning as she walked. His gaze fell on her foot and saw that one of her heels was broken. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but his lips moved. In the end, he suppressed the worried words he was about to say.
Sheng Yufei felt as if her heart was being torn apart. It hurt so much that she found it difficult to breathe.
If it were in the past, Lu Jinshen would definitely come over to help her and take her to the mall to buy shoes if he saw her like this. But now … he could only remain silent.
Lu Jinshen finished smoking a cigarette before coming out of the cafe. He got into the car, and Tong Qiao sat in the front passenger seat, playing with her phone.
She asked, "Can we go now?"
After not hearing a reply for a while, Tong Qiao raised her head and looked at Lu Jinshen. He was looking at her deeply. "Why aren't you answering my question?"
Lu Jinshen remained silent. He leaned over and took the phone from Tong Qiao's hand.
"Give it to me quickly. I'm having fun playing with it." Tong Qiao got up and went over to snatch it back.
Lu Jinshen's large hand clasped the back of her neck, and he forcefully pulled her towards him. Before she could react, he kissed her lips and pried open her teeth. A storm of passion swept through her, and he only let go of her when she lightly punched his arm.
Tong Qiao fell back into the seat, like a fish that had suddenly returned to the sea. She gasped for air.
Lu Jinshen looked at her with a faint smile.
After Tong Qiao's breathing stabilized, she glared at Lu Jinshen. "You're still smiling? You almost kissed me to death, okay? You didn't even give me a chance to catch my breath. "
"I'm sorry for making you suffer."
Tong Qiao knew that Lu Jinshen was probably talking about Sheng Yufei. She had once told him that Sheng Yufei liked him, but he didn't believe her and said that it was impossible. "It's good that you know. You have to make it up to me in the future."
"Okay."
…
At night, Tong Qiao was lying on the bed in her pajamas and video-chatting with Shuxin. Her legs were bent backward and swaying leisurely in the air. There were two marriage certificates in front of her. They were spread open, and the phone's camera was aimed at the red booklets that they had just received in the afternoon.
The two of them exchanged some intimate words. Shuxin said that the child in her stomach was kicking violently and wanted to take a walk, so she hung up.
Tong Qiao had just placed the phone on the bedside table when the bathroom door opened.
Lu Jinshen came out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around his waist. Tong Qiao could not help but drool at the sight of his muscular chest, sexy abs, and seductive Apollo's belt …
