He took a deep breath and said, "Wen Li, I am sincere about you."
"No matter what you've been through before, you need to understand that I'm not just playing around."
"If you still have feelings for your husband, then forget it." He closed his eyes for a moment. "I wish you both happiness."
"But if things don’t work out between you two, come find me." He grasped my wrist tightly. "Wen Li, I will wait for you."
That day, Xu Jiasheng left.
Before he departed, he paid for another month of my rent.
Then he walked away without looking back.
At that time, I thought I would never cross paths with him again.
Unexpectedly, six months later at a business banquet in the country, I saw Xu Jiasheng again.
He was still as striking as ever.
Xu Jiasheng took the initiative to greet me. "Miss Wen, long time no see."
"Long time no see." I felt a bit awkward. "Are you back in the country?"
Xu Jiasheng looked at me. "Yes, I've been back for a while."
"Divorced?" he suddenly asked.
I was taken aback. "Not yet."
Xu Jiasheng gazed at me silently for a moment before finally saying, "I'm sorry."
I felt a bit lost. "What?"
"I shouldn't have pushed you," Xu Jiasheng said with a bitter smile, shaking his head. "I was too greedy."
"Li Li..." he called my name softly, his voice hoarse as if it were filled with gravel. "I miss you."
Those words tugged at my heart.
Suddenly, I really wanted to hug him.
But there were too many people around; I couldn't do that.
"I'm sorry," was all I could say.
Xu Jiasheng closed his eyes for a moment. "It’s my fault."
He turned and walked a few steps before stopping again. "Wen Li, I already know everything."
I looked up at him in shock.
He turned back and smiled at me. "Including what happened between you and your husband."
Panic surged within me.
Xu Jiasheng continued, "Wen Li, I'm not a good person." He chuckled softly. "If I can't have you, I'll destroy you."
Those words were frightening.
But at the same time, they were exhilarating.
Xu Jiasheng said, "Wen Li, you need to be responsible for me."
I licked my lips and asked, "How should I be responsible?"
Xu Jiasheng stared at me and replied, "Be my woman."
Half a month later, He Li Yan's Xiao Que'er made headlines.
At that time, I was attending a business dinner hosted by the He family, sitting beside my mother-in-law.
I accidentally glanced at the trending news and saw Xiao Que'er looking like a weeping willow. I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
My mother-in-law looked at me curiously and asked, "What's wrong?"
I handed her my phone.
She took a quick glance, and her expression immediately stiffened.
However, being someone who had seen her fair share of ups and downs, she quickly regained her composure and joined in the laughter with others, saying, "The mistresses these days really have no shame; they dare to stir up such baseless rumors."
"Exactly! President He and Mrs. He have been childhood sweethearts. Their relationship has been strong for so many years; how could it be someone like that?"
"Must be some little internet celebrity desperate for fame, willing to fabricate such stories."
While my mother-in-law wore a smile on her face, she quietly asked me, "Have you discussed this with A Yan?"
I nodded.
"Have you thought it through?" she inquired.
"Mm."
My mother-in-law sighed, "I will talk to your father about this. If you really want a divorce, I will support you."
"Thank you, Mom." I held her hand.
She patted the back of my hand, "You are my daughter-in-law. If I don't protect you, who else will I protect?"
"But..." My mother-in-law hesitated, "A Yan is a good kid in many ways, but he just isn't committed. You..."
I understood what she meant.
After all, she had raised her son with great care and truly couldn't bear to see him suffer.
Even if this son had caused her quite a bit of trouble.
"Mom, I know." I smiled at her, "Don't worry, I have it under control."
She nodded, "As long as you know."
At that moment, a voice suddenly came from behind us, filled with gritted teeth: "Wen Li!"
