Chapter 427: Make Her Regret It!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio , Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ruan Qi saw that it was a message from Xi Tong asking her where she was.
The two of them weren’t close, so Ruan Qi wondered what Xi Tong was up to
when she suddenly texted her.
“I’m resting. Haven’t been feeling well.”
“I see. You poor thing.”
“Why poor thing?”
“Is your boyfriend by your side to take care of you since you’re unwell?”
Ruan Qi was puzzled. “What has this got to do with my boyfriend?”
“But of course. You’re not feeling well. A boyfriend who doesn’t take care of you when you’re sick is a scumbag!”
Ruan Qi did not like people scolding her husband. “Watch your mouth. Don’t spout nonsense when you don’t know anything.
“I’m not spouting nonsense. I saw it with my own eyes. Ruan Qi, you’re still in the dark, aren’t you? Your boyfriend looks human but he’s actually something else behind your back.”
Ruan Qi wanted to type a reply that called Xi Tong a b*tch!
But Xi Tong’s fingers were faster. She sent Ruan Qi five or six photos. In the photos, Song Zhou was talking and laughing with another woman in a mall.
She frowned as she scrolled to the bottom. There was a message, “Ruan Qi, I saw your boyfriend with another woman.”
“Ruan Qi, I’m only telling you this out of kindness. Your boyfriend is cheating on you with another woman. Don’t let him get away with this. The worst thing that can happen is a break-up.”
Xi Tong seemed to be doing this for Ruan Qi’s benefit, but she was inciting her to break up with her husband.
Ruan Qi looked at the photos with her fists clenched.
Song Zhou actually went shopping with another woman behind her back!
She ignored Xi Tong and called Song Zhou but the call didn’t get through.
She got worried. The last time she couldn’t get through to his phone, he disappeared.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe went upstairs to the study to find Jiang Jingchen.
Jiang Jingchen heard that she couldn’t get hold of Song Zhou, so he dialed Song
Zhou’s number. His call went through.
It was a little noisy on the other end of the call. He could barely hear Song Zhou tell him that he was dealing with something at a bar and would be home later.
Song Zhou asked Jiang Jingchen if he had any orders.
Jiang Jingchen looked at Ruan Qi. “Your wife is looking for you. She couldn’t get
hold of you and came to me.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Zhou hung up.
Ruan Qi watched Jiang Jingchen put down his phone and asked anxiously, “Why
did he hang up? Did he do something wrong?”
Jiang Jingchen stared at her and chuckled. “If you don’t trust your man now, there will be countless surprises waiting for you in the years to come. Don’t you
feel tired?”
Ruan Qi was stunned by his question. She pursed her lips, feeling a little guilty.
Jiang Jingchen turned his eyes back to his laptop and said, “You’re already married to him. It’s okay to feel jealous occasionally, but I’d advise you not to doubt him. It’s quite sad if you doubt a man who’s willing to give up his life for
you.”
“I, I’m not doubting him. I’m just…”
Ruan Qi tried to explain herself, but she panicked the moment she saw those photos.
She felt very insecure deep down inside after she watched her parents marriage fall apart.
When she followed her mother to her new home, people always said that she
was a burden.
Now that she was starting her own family, those shadows of doubt would creep up from time to time, making her afraid.
Would she become someone’s burden again?
“You doubt Song Zhou using your own assumptions, huh?
Ruan Qi was rendered speechless. She lowered her head and felt helpless.
When Young Master Jiang taught someone a lesson, he never scolded or screamed at people. He would just say a few casual words that would make people feel as if they had been stabbed in the heart, painful as hell.
Jiang Jingchen looked up at her. “Song Zhou has been with me for so many years. He stayed away from women when he was engaged to Mi Qing and only accepted you after Mi Qing got a serious boyfriend.”
“If he’s a player. Do you think you’ll become his wife? You won’t make it.”
Young Master Jiang’s last sentence was unpleasant to the ear but it spoke the truth.
Song Zhou’s personal qualities weren’t bad. If he really wanted to be a player, countless women would climb into his bed willingly.
Ruan Qi felt so ashamed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
At this moment, her phone rang, giving her a way out.
She looked down and saw that it was a call from Song Zhou.
She answered the call and heard that it was less noisy on the other end. Song Zhou was still panting when he said, “Ruan Qi, what’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell? Don’t worry, okay? I’ll be back in half an hour. What would you like to eat? I’ll buy some back for you.”
Ruan Qi wiped her tears away in shame. “Nothing. I just missed you.
“I miss you too. I’ll be home as soon as possible.
-Be good. Have a snack and catch up on your TV series. Didn’t they release more episodes for the series you are watching? If you’re unhappy, we’ll talk about it when I get home.”
Ruan Qi mumbled a few yeses and asked him to go back to work. She would watch her TV series.
After hanging up the phone, Ruan Qi said to Jiang Jingchen, “I won’t think such silly thoughts in future.”
Jiang Jingchen’s handsome face was filled with indifference. “What you think
has nothing to do with me.”
Ruan Qi was stumped. Young Master Jiang could always strike someone in the heart with just one sentence, no holds barred.
At the bar, Song Zhou rushed to the toilet to call Ruan Qi. After Ruan Qi hung up the phone, he came out and urged Ji Er to hurry up.
Ji Er had already met Ma Baomu. The two of them were talking. Ji Er had a few drinks and held her forehead. She said that she was a little drunk and asked Ma Baomu to help her back to her hotel to rest.
“To your hotel?”
Ma Baomu smiled maliciously and immediately held her arm. “Okay, I’ll send
you back.”
“Where is your hotel?”
“I’ll call my driver. I don’t live far. Thankyou for taking the trouble, little big brother Baomu.”
Hearing her call him little big brother Baomu, Ma Baomu’s bones almost turned soft.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJi Er was getting her phone to call her driver when a condom fell out of her bag.
Ma Baomu’s eyes lit up when he saw that. He was even more impatient now and started groping her waist.
Ji Er trained all year round, and her figure was as good as a Victoria’s Secret Angel’s.
But Ji Er had to endure her disgust. She smiled, stuffed the condom back into her pocket and winked flirtatiously at him.
The two of them walked out of the bar and got into Song Zhou’s car.
Song Zhou, who was in the driver’s seat, was wearing a mask and a suit. Ma Baomu’s attention was on the woman, so he couldn’t care less about the driver upfront.
But the car didn’t go to a hotel but to the suburbs.
Half an hour later, Song Zhou returned to the villa.
He drove in and saw a woman sitting at the door with two dogs at her feet.
Before he could bring the car into the garage, he stopped the car, got out and walk quickly to the woman.
“Babe, it’s cold at night. Why are you sitting here?”
Ruan Qi cupped his face and kissed his cheek. “Yes, it’s a little cold, but I feel warm after kissing you.”
Song Zhou chuckled. It was rare for her to act coquettishly, so he carried her back into the house.
He put her on the sofa, covered her with a thin blanket, and rubbed her slightly cold palms.
“Are you unhappy about something? Talk to me about it?
Ruan Qi shook her head. “I’m not unhappy. I’m just bored alone.”
She didn’t like to read and she couldn’t dance. Watching TV was even more boring, so she just waited for him to come home.
Song Zhou understood her mood. Since she didn’t want to tell him, he wouldn’t force her. He warmed her hands and asked, “Are you hungry? I’ll eat something with you.”
Ruan Qi laughed in frustration. “Are you feeding me again, Mr. Song? I suspect that you just want to fatten me up so you can’t carry me anymore and won’t want to touch me.”
Song Zhou laughed and pinched her face. “You’re thinking too much. If you’re so capable, why don’t you get to 200 or 250 kg and see if I can carry you?”
Ruan Qi shuddered at the thought of her weighing 200 to 250 kg.
“That must be a nightmare!”
Song Zhou laughed but still took her to eat something. She would lose weight when her morning sickness came, so she should nourish herself now.
After a snack, he watched TV with her and checked the situation at the Ruan residence on his phone.
Ma Baomu was already under control; he just had to wait for the Ma family to be in trouble. But Ruan Xue bullied his wife for the sake of Ruan Hao’s career. It was also time to teach her a lesson.
Even if he couldn’t make her kneel and beg for mercy, he would make her regret it!
