Chapter 240 Life is never boring when your lover is by your side.
Chapter 240 Life is never boring when your lover is by your side.
Lu Jiangting said with a sullen face, "I've thought about it these past few days. Old Wang wouldn't have set me up with Fang Qing for no reason. Someone must have instructed him to do it."
As he said this, he glanced at Fu Huaiyi a few times.
Fu Huaiyi: "..." Does that mean I instructed him to say it?
How come I didn't know Old Wang would listen to me so much?
Fu Huaiyi was so angry he laughed. He hadn't wanted to say anything, but now he couldn't hold back anymore.
He hung the groceries he bought on the doorknob, and then pulled Lu Jiangting, who was hiding behind Lu Jiangrong, out of the room.
His movements were so swift that Lu Cong and Lu Jiangrong thought he was going to hit someone, and they cried out in excitement.
"Hey, what are you doing? Let's talk this out, don't hit people."
Fu Huaiyi grabbed Lu Jiangting by the collar and pinned him against the wall, coldly saying, "Do you dare to come with me to confront Old Wang right now?"
Lu Cong and Lu Jiangrong wanted to step forward to help, but were stopped by Lu Jiangting.
He stared coldly at Fu Huaiyi and said, "Do you dare say that you did nothing in Old Wang's matchmaking of me and Fang Qing?"
"You mean that morning when I saw you running out of Fang Qing's house in a panic?"
Lu Jiangting: "..."
He instinctively looked at Lin Yuyao.
Lin Yuyao said with a mocking expression, "Do you think these things would have become public knowledge if Fang Qing hadn't done it on purpose?"
Lu Jiangting felt extremely distressed. "Yuyao, we..."
Now that things have come to this, what is there left for 'us'? He himself is too ashamed to say it.
Lin Yuyao gave Fu Huaiyi a wink, signaling him to release Lu Jiangting.
Fu Huaiyi let go of the doorknob and took the vegetables hanging on it.
Lin Yuyao said calmly, "Take your father and sister and leave now. Explain our matter to them yourself. Don't come looking for me again, and don't come back to me in the future."
Lu Jiangting said painfully, "Yuyao, this shouldn't be the ending for us. We should have gotten married. We were so close to it, how could it have come to this?"
"Don't you know why things have come to this? You said it yourself, you can't refuse Fang Qing. In your current state, marrying anyone would be a disservice to them. Only marrying Fang Qing would be a good outcome for everyone. That way, you can rightfully take care of Fang Qing and her child, and no one will stop you from being good to them anymore."
"Pooh."
As soon as Lin Yuyao finished speaking, Lu Jiangrong spat at her.
“How could that widow be worthy of our Jiang Ting? She’s a divorcee with a child in tow, and she’s older than Jiang Ting.”
"If they could accept it, they wouldn't have come," Lu Jiangrong said earnestly to Lu Jiangting. "Jiangting, don't make a mistake. You've been the pride of our family since you were little. We can't let you be ruined by a widow."
Lu Cong sighed as he smoked, "Jiang Ting, Yu Yao is still the best."
That's obvious, everyone knows Yuyao is better.
Lu Jiangting looked at Lin Yuyao.
Lin Yuyao didn't want to continue the conversation with him and stopped looking at him.
Fu Huaiyi was so angry that he wanted to hit her again, carrying the vegetables in one hand and protecting Lin Yuyao with the other.
"roll."
Lu Jiangting's mind was filled with the laughter and chatter they had shared on their way upstairs.
She asked him what he wanted to eat.
He told her about buying a house.
Are they going to buy a house together?
Together they built their home.
Seeing her happy expression at this moment was both jarring and unbearable to witness, yet I couldn't bear to break it.
He's already married, and she's started seeing someone else.
Or... let's just forget about it.
He consoled himself with this thought.
Lu Jiangting took a deep breath and tugged at his older sister, who was still arguing with Lin Yuyao and Fu Huaiyi.
"Let's go."
Lu Jiangrong was extremely unwilling, "Leave? Your wife ran off with someone else, and you're just going to leave like that?"
"I'm married," Lu Jiangting said, taking a deep breath.
"You can cancel the engagement. You and Yuyao were almost ready to get married before, but you canceled it, didn't you?"
“It’s different.” Lu Jiangting gritted his teeth and said angrily, “Fang Qing and I have already obtained our marriage certificate.”
“This… ah?” Lu Jiangrong was stunned.
Lu Cong tapped his pipe. "Did it really work out?"
"Yes."
"Can't you back out now?"
"Military marriage is not a joke; you can't go back on your word."
"You... Oh dear, you're so foolish!" Lu Jiangrong stomped her foot in anger, feeling that coming all this way with her father was a joke.
We've already got the marriage certificate, what else is there to say?
She foolishly joined in the persuasion, thinking there was some real misunderstanding between them, and that the girl was fickle...
Now things are really bad; I'll probably have to pay for most of the transportation myself.
She was so angry that she turned around and went downstairs.
Lu Cong was also very disappointed in him. He knocked off his cigarette ash, shook his head, sighed, and went downstairs.
Lu Jiangting turned to look at Lin Yuyao and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I'll talk to them nicely and I won't bother you again."
After saying that, he went downstairs.
Lin Yuyao did not accept his apology because, in her view, she had suffered an undeserved misfortune.
He could have explained it to his father and older sister directly when they came looking for him.
I don't know what they said, but they confused me, which is why these two came to cause me trouble.
They almost turned the tables on us.
Lin Yuyao's good mood was ruined by that family. She opened the door expressionlessly, took the groceries, and went to cook.
While she was washing rice, Fu Huaiyi sat on a small stool picking vegetables.
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, he didn't dare to say anything and just kept working.
The silence was broken only when Lin Yuyao saw that all the stems of the water spinach had been thrown away and couldn't help but speak up.
"This is edible."
Fu Huaiyi stared blankly at the pile of jokes.
"You have to choose this way."
Lin Yuyao picked up a stick to demonstrate.
"Look, flatten it and break it in the middle, so that oil and salt can get in more easily."
As she spoke, she picked up the joke he had dropped, saying, "These are very tender, you can eat them."
"Do you understand how to do it this way?"
I demonstrated a few, but after talking for a long time, I still didn't get a response.
Lin Yuyao turned her head to look at him and saw that he was staring at her face.
Lin Yuyao was startled and touched her face with the back of her hand. "Is there a leaf on my face?"
Fu Huaiyi shook his head. "I'm just thinking that Lu Jiangting must be regretting it to death."
right?
But what does that have to do with me?
"Stop thinking about that and hurry up and pick the vegetables."
The two worked together and soon enjoyed a hot meal.
After the meal, Fu Huaiyi cleaned up the pots and pans and went to wash them.
During this time, Lin Yuyao could sit at the table and think about the new book.
The beginning is written; once the outline is perfected, it can be sent to the publisher.
By the time Fu Huaiyi finished washing the pots and pans, she had already written a lot.
Fu Huaiyi then took over his assistant's job, copying down what she had written.
Please double-check to ensure there are no typos.
Even though the days are simple and repetitive, they don't feel boring or tedious because my loved one is by my side.
Their life here is simple and happy, while the building across the street is a scene of chaos and turmoil.
Fang Qing said that Lin Yuyao had fallen for someone else, which was why she resolutely rejected Lu Jiangting and used Lu Jiangrong as a pawn. How could she stand this humiliation?
