Cheating Marriage - C196

CHAPTER 196 – DON’T KILL HER

As I listened to Xia Ze’s suppressed voice, ripples appeared in the bottom of my heart. I felt very happy, very happy that he had thought of me in such a manner while I was in pain.

“Don’t try to coax me, there are so many good-looking young girls by your side, and I’m already old. Besides, I don’t know anything, and I can’t keep up with you anymore.” I said some depressing words on purpose, but I was actually looking forward to Xia Ze praising me, saying that I was different from other women. This was just my little trick, if he found out, I would definitely lose a lot of face.

Xia Ze stared at me, and his eyes gradually became cold. His gaze made me feel afraid, and I was afraid to hear him say that we were only happy for a moment, but I have already fallen so deep into his embrace.

“I won’t leave you.” Xia Ze said, “I will not fall in love with others, so can I hug you now?”

I did not wait for him to move. I embraced him, and his kiss fell on my skin. I exhaled softly.

“I like you.” I closed my eyes and mumbled, “I really like you, Xia Ze.”

I felt Xia Ze’s kiss on my body pause for a moment, but then I heard him say, “Me too.”

I could feel the love in his words, but I kept having the feeling that something else was hidden underneath that love. That thing made me flustered, and when I thought about it, I couldn’t help but hug Xia Ze tightly.

In the midst of extreme happiness, I murmured, “Xia Ze, don’t leave me.”

“I won’t leave you.” He stroked my hair gently, as if to comfort me.

He won’t leave me. I clung to his clothes.

I leaned against him in the archive, where I could see the sun setting. I was in his arms, and even though it was over, I couldn’t bear to leave him, and since I’d moved home, my time with him had been numbered.

“Aren’t you going to work?” I asked him. “Is it all right to be gone so long?”

Xia Ze hugged me tightly, he stared at the blood red sun and said, “It’s alright.”

“But I may have to go.” I say, my voice is very low. When we go to the factory later, Cheng Ruojun will also go, and Cheng Ruojun will probably talk to Li Zhen again, so Li Zhen will put on a look that everyone will be able to see through it. Only she will have to deny her affection for Cheng Ruojun, and what will happen if Cheng Ruojun and I are there.

When I thought about how Cheng Ruojun’s hands would only touch my skin, I felt uncomfortable. In the past, I could endure it, but now that I like Xia Ze more and more, I only want to be with him.

“Are you going over there?” Xia Ze held me back, his tone when he spoke clearly did not change at all, but I was keenly aware that he was probably a little angry.

“Yes.” “Believe me, we will be together. I have a feeling that day is coming.”

Xia Ze rubbed my hair and said, “You go first, I’ll rest a bit longer.”

“Alright.”

I tidied up my makeup with the small mirror in my bag, then bid farewell to Xia Ze and left.

At first, I could see through him, but now, it was as if we were separated by a piece of glass. I tried my best to get closer to him, to press my face against his, but what I could feel was not his body temperature, only the cold glass.

I went to Li Zhen’s factory once again. It was time to get off work, and there were two or three people who came out, some of them looked very young, so I couldn’t help but think of my past, the more I graduated from secondary school, the more I went out to work, and other than being young, there was nothing. At that time, maybe I was looking forward to the future, but I didn’t think that I would still be wandering around the intersection after so many years.

As I was thinking about this, I suddenly felt that someone was looking at me. I looked up and saw a familiar face, the scar still visible, standing alone under a ginkgo tree with yellow leaves falling on her shoulders. She looked very quiet, and the crowd around her had formed a vacuum around her.

“Hello.” I waved to her, and she nodded to me. Then she turned and left, and I was about to go after her when my cell phone rang.

I took out my cell phone and answered it. When I looked up, the girl was gone.

I sighed. I don’t know why, but I felt like the girl was going to say something to me. I hoped I wasn’t being sentimental.

“Ruo, have you finished your work?” I smiled as I picked up the phone, not letting Cheng Ruojun notice the disappointment in my heart.

“Yes.” Cheng Ruojun said, “I will be waiting for you at the entrance of the factory, I have already seen you.”

“Alright.” I turned around with my cell phone, and immediately discovered Cheng Ruojun’s car, it was too eye-catching, if the car was in the city, of course it would be alright, but now that the car was in the wilderness, it would naturally attract everyone’s attention, and the most common car here would be the van.

I walked quickly to the car. The crowd was moving very slowly now, and many people’s eyes were on the car. I didn’t enjoy it.

I opened the door and got in the car. Just before I got in, I felt a strange gaze, and when I looked back, I saw Li Zhen.

I was about to talk to her, but Cheng Ruojun reached out and pulled me inside.

As I sat in the car, I couldn’t help but turn back to look at Li Zhen. The look in her eyes made me uneasy, as I saw something that made me feel terrified and disgusted, something that I didn’t want to see in her eyes.

No matter how many times Li Zhen explained to me, she wouldn’t fall for Cheng Ruojun, but she still fell for it. I don’t understand how many times she had come into contact with Cheng Ruojun, how could she fall for another person just by looking at that appearance?

“What’s the matter with you?” Cheng Ruojun asked me, his tone slightly unhappy, “You’re already by my side, who else do you plan to go look for?”

I immediately turned and said to Cheng Ruojun, “Ruo, I’m looking at Li Zhen.”

Cheng Ruojun frowned when he heard the name Li Zhen, as if he didn’t want to hear any news regarding her.

“You know she likes you.” “No,” I said.

Cheng Ruojun smiled and said, “What? Are you jealous? ”

“I …” I paused. “She’s my friend. Don’t do anything to her.”

Cheng Ruojun’s smile disappeared as soon as I said that. He grabbed my chin and said, “It’s not that I attacked her, but she stuck close to me on her own accord. Do you know how many times she called me to ask about your situation before you left?”
