My heart raced at the sound of his voice.
Lu Yanchen didn't seem to be deliberately keeping his distance from me as he had before. To be honest, he was even deliberately getting close to me.
"Yanchen, you..." I bit my lip, unsure what to do.
What if he wasn't really interested? Didn't everyone say he had someone he liked? Wouldn't that make me overthink things? How embarrassing!
He seemed to understand my doubts and explained, "Wanwan, we're a legal couple. I told you not to be restrained around me. If you need any help, just tell me."
"Okay."
I gestured to myself sitting on his lap. Although I'd taken the initiative initially, I'd been so caught up in the drama that I'd forgotten everything else.
But this time, he was the one pulling me down, which made me feel uneasy.
"Wanwan, are you planning to divorce me?"
"No." I'll never trust a man again in my life. Being with my uncle is the best outcome. "Since we plan to support each other until old age, do we have to be as reserved as strangers for the rest of our lives? Don't dwell on the past; cherish the present."
My zipper was already zipped up, and I stood up and put on my high heels. The cheongsam perfectly outlined Jiang Wanwan's long legs, slim waist, and full breasts.
With her skin as white as snow and a hint of red between her eyebrows, she added a touch of transcendence.
Looking at her face in the mirror, I thought of the word: pure lust.
Jiang Wanwan's body is better than mine.
It's just that she never really looks at it. She always dresses in black, extravagantly and gory, intimidating.
With me dressed like this, I'm afraid this body won't fail to cause a stir.
Su Ning'an and Jiang Zhi are both coming tonight. How will this drama unfold? I'm already looking forward to it.
As night falls, a steady stream of cars arrives at the villa.
Outside the old house, the lights are bright, and guests are arriving one after another. The Su family arrived early. After two days of recuperation, Su Ning'an looked much better.
The Su family seemed hostile to me, merely offering a polite greeting before quickly leaving.
That's right. After all, I've seen Su Ning'an at his worst. They'll definitely hate me for bringing shame upon the Su family.
Not long after, the Jiang family arrived.
Jiang Qing wasn't too mad today. Perhaps considering he was visiting the Lu family, he didn't bring his mistress.
As soon as Xu Lan got out of the car, I ran over to her. "Mom, you're here."
Jiang Qing's gaze fell on my face with a hint of surprise.
He was used to his daughter, always gloomy and dressed in black.
Suddenly seeing my change of style, he almost didn't recognize me. "It would have been nice if you'd dressed like this earlier. Girls should be neat and tidy."
Xu Lan glared at him. "My daughter looks good in anything."
Jiang Qing ignored my mother, only whispering, "Don't be rude to outsiders later."
"I understand. Even for my daughter, I'll do the necessary superficial things."
My mother didn't seem to have the same love for him she once had. Perhaps she'd already realized that some men never look back.
The marriage was only lasting for the benefit of both the Xu and Jiang families.
But Jiang Qing only then realized that his wife's eyes were no longer on him.
Among the passing guests were people who knew Xu Lan. Xu Lan greeted me and left.
I saw a middle-aged man, his eyes locked with my mother's as he walked towards her.
My mother and he were chatting happily. There was something about this man's eyes!
If I could divorce that scumbag Jiang Qing and marry a good man, my life would not be in vain. Only after my rebirth did I understand a truth: people are burdened with too many shackles in this life, most of which are for others, and ultimately, they don't end well.
So why bother? Live life to your heart's content while you're still alive!
Jiang Qing saw my mother smile softly, and despite scolding me, he quickly walked over to her and put his arm around her waist.
What a shame, what a scumbag! He won't let go even if he doesn't eat!
Jiang Zhi and Fu Xici had also arrived. I'd thought she'd wear the dress from the photo shoot.
Perhaps fearing my ridicule, she wore a different, richly crafted, bright red dress.
Drenched in jewels, she looked incredibly luxurious.
She emerged from the snowstorm like a princess or queen from the last century, too extravagant.
And I, on the other hand, wore a cheongsam, my hair in a bun, and the jade ornaments the old man had given me.
The transparent glass seeds shone against my fair skin, and wherever I stood, I was a breathtaking sight. The first time Fu Xici saw me, his eyes were filled with undisguised amazement, even more evident than at the auction.
Jiang Zhi was also a little jealous. She had come in a gorgeous outfit, but she was still overshadowed by my aura.
We exchanged a few pleasantries and parted ways. As I finished serving the guests and was about to leave, I spotted the man lighting a cigarette in the hallway.
I didn't spare him a second glance as I stomped off in my high heels. His voice came from beside me, "Jiang Wanwan."
I stopped and looked at Fu Xici, who was leaning against the wall. "What's wrong, Mr. Fu?"
"Why are you so distant with me? I know you blame me for betraying you, but Wanwan, you shouldn't be so angry about it."
"So you betrayed me, and now you have the nerve to lecture me?"
Sometimes I'm really curious about the way these scumbags think. Doesn't their world revolve around them?
He used to enjoy Jiang Wanwan's humble flattery, but now that she's married, he's putting on a brave face and giving me some high-minded lectures. He never mentioned that all the troubles Jiang Wanwan had faced were caused by him!
"Wanwan, I'm doing this for your own good."
I walked closer, eager to see how he could truly benefit me.
I suppressed my coldness and looked at him with a smile. "Xici, how are you trying to save me?" He was dazzled by my smile and licked his lips. "Wanwan, did you and that cripple…"
"Did anything?" I feigned ignorance.
"Sharing a bed."
"No, Mr. Lu and I weren't that close yet. He had someone else he loved and never touched me."
After I said this, Fu Xici's eyes lit up. He stared at my face greedily, then leaned in and said, "Wanwan, the person I've always loved is you. I was threatened by your sister because your father favored her more. During that time, the Fu family's funding chain was cut short and they desperately needed a capital injection. She was the only one who could help me, so I..."
"Xici, so that's how it is. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
I feigned genuine affection, but women are just like drunk men.
As long as I'm willing to act, even a little drunk can make him cry.
"I'm sorry, Wanwan," he said, about to hug me.
I quickly stepped back. "I'm married now, don't do this."
"Wanwan, the person I love is you. We've been together for so many years. Do you really want to give your body to that cripple?"
I feigned surprise. "Xici, what do you mean?"
"Wanwan, I want you tonight. Will you give it to me?"
