Contract Bride, the power game of misplaced love

Jiang Zhiyan just hung up her phone when Xiao Yuheng walked in from outside.

Seeing that the living room was pitch black, she must have fallen asleep.

Xiao Yuheng opened the door and heard her answering the phone. He then saw that her hair was messy and her tears were not wiped away.

For a moment, he wondered if she was upset by what he had said.

But, what does it have to do with him whether she is sad or not?

Xiao Yuheng didn't say a word to anyone. He put on his shoes and went upstairs.

Jiang Zhiyan followed him with bare legs:

"Do you hate me so much?"

Xiao Yuheng slapped her hand away:

"I don't understand what you're saying."

"You didn't even say hello? Even if you don't know me, you should be polite. Why are you so cold to me when I come to you?"

Xiao Yuheng just stood there and looked at her for a long time.

After a long while, he asked:

"You really want to know why?"

"Xiao Yuheng, don't tell me that you are lying to me. You planned all this."

Xiao Yuheng still didn't look at her directly, but his voice was extremely cold:

"This king is not that free yet."

"It's you, it must be you, I won't be with another man!"

Jiang Zhiyan hugged Xiao Yuheng in her arms, looking aggrieved.

"Okay, okay, take your arm away. I'm leaving."

Xiao Yuheng pushed her away, then turned and walked away without even looking at her.

Jiang Zhiyan's heart sank again. She should have known this long ago.

However, she didn't want to be just a figurehead.

After finally reaching the washstand, she stared at herself in the mirror.

This was a tug-of-war game. He didn't turn around, but she was waiting. She was proud of Xiao Yuheng and would not allow any mistakes.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she thought of Li Zhijian and cursed through gnashing teeth.

Then he washed his face slowly and started crying.

There is nothing right or wrong in liking someone, and she firmly believes that he will know it sooner or later.

As night falls, the whole city becomes exceptionally quiet.

Li Zhijian followed Xia Ying for a long distance before she remembered that the editor-in-chief was still detained in the police station. She said awkwardly:

"Aunt. There is something I need your help with."

Xia Ying pulled her back, hugged her tighter, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

"Auntie, our editor-in-chief had a small conflict with the hotel staff. They said he was eating for free, so they took him to the police station."

Xia Ying felt very upset when she heard this. These waitresses were really arrogant. She knew very well that she couldn't provoke them casually. She puffed out her chest and

"Okay, we'll go over there now."

Xia Ying made a phone call and asked about the location of the hotel, and then the two of them rushed towards the hotel.

Xia Ying couldn't drive, so every time she went out, Uncle Wang would pick her up in person.

When the Lincoln stopped on the road, it became a beautiful picture.

Li Zhijian couldn't believe it, it all seemed like a dream.

Uncle Wang opened the door for Xia Ying without waiting for her to open it, and the two of them got into the back seat.

The atmosphere in the carriage was warm and cozy.

At this time, there were not many vehicles on the road.

Li Zhijian felt very lucky to have met Zhao Yunshan, but there was nothing she could do as she only considered him a friend.

Xia Ying asked: "Zhijian, where are you from?"

Li Zhijian blushed and smiled awkwardly: "I'm from out of town."

"It's okay. We don't care about family background. As long as our children are happy, that's all that matters. Now she's in a better mood, and she has you to thank for that!"

Li Zhijian was very embarrassed and said politely:

"Aunt, there's nothing I can do. I'm not a doctor. I believe he will get better soon. I wish him a speedy recovery."

"Yes, when he recovers, I'll let you visit my home. Don't worry. I've been looking forward to having a daughter for a long time, but I didn't expect that God would give me two boys. Now when I see you, I feel like I'm seeing my daughter."

Li Zhijian thought so too. She had never seen her mother or her father.

She didn't know what her mother and father were like, but she was sure that

The only person I can rely on is my grandmother.

Xia Ying told Uncle Wang to call Mr. Zhao in.

"Yes, ma'am." Uncle Wang nodded and said respectfully.

Xia Ying was afraid that he couldn't do it, so she said, if he couldn't do it, just call the boss something.

Just as Wang Bo was about to leave, he suddenly turned around with a smile on his face, "Don't worry!"

Sure enough, not long after, Uncle Wang and the editor-in-chief came over.

Li Zhijian spotted the editor-in-chief from a distance. He looked nervous, with his hat pulled down low.

When she saw Wang Bo pulling him into the luxury car, she wanted to run away.

Li Zhijian knew very well that the editor-in-chief probably didn't know who saved him.

That's why he was afraid of Xiao Yuheng's revenge and that's why he resorted to lynching.

As she walked out, she shouted:

"Editor-in-chief, don't be afraid, I will get someone to help you."

When the editor heard what Li Zhijian said, he stopped what he was doing and turned around in confusion:

"Are you OK?"

Li Zhijian spread his hands, looking nonchalant:

"Luckily I asked a good friend for help, otherwise, I would be trapped here too."

The editor-in-chief asked suspiciously, "So, Xiao Yuheng also did something bad to you?"

"Okay, editor-in-chief, tell them. Also, Xiao Yuheng's name must not be mentioned in this matter. They seem to know him."

The editor-in-chief stubbornly stood in the middle of the road. When he heard Li Zhijian say that she and Xiao Yuheng knew each other, he refused to step forward.

Li Zhijian advised earnestly: "Editor-in-chief, can you come over? He is your lifesaver!"

The editor-in-chief looked worried, shook his head, and said stubbornly:

"No, no one around Xiao Yuheng is a good person."

"Don't think everyone is your fault, let's go make friends."

No matter how Li Zhijian persuaded him, the editor-in-chief was stubborn and refused to go. Finally, he spoke

: "Thank her for me and tell her that I have two sons to raise at home, and I won't bother her anymore."

Now that things have come to this, Li Zhijian has no choice but to nod: "That's fine."

"I understand, but you have to be careful and don't tell me that Xiao Yuheng asked them to rescue you."

Li Zhijian is also a cautious person. He was the one who threw himself into the fire pit, so why would he go to save others?

She didn't know that Xiao Yuheng came this time to settle the bill.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then the editor-in-chief left.

Li Zhijian got back in the car and said to Xia Ying:

"Aunt, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. The editor-in-chief is worried about our two sons, so he has to come back quickly."
