Chapter 123: Mutual Bite
The moon hung high in the sky, and the pale yellow moonlight slowly shone into the glass car window. The car window was slightly opened, letting in the cold wind.
Ji Xingchen nestled in Lu Yanbei's arms. Since the incident at the jewelry competition, the two of them had rarely been in tit-for-tat. Instead, they were quiet and silent with each other, surprisingly harmonious.
The refreshing smell of the man's body hit the tip of Ji Xingchen's nose, and because he was so close, she even smelled the faintest smell of tobacco.
It doesn't smell bad, it can even be called good.
Ji Xingchen sniffed his nose, eliciting a sneer from above.
Lu Yanbei: "Are you a dog?"
Ji Xingchen: "You are the dog."
The two people called each other bad names, but their tone was calm, as if it was just a normal conversation.
The driver quietly glanced at the rearview mirror. He still remembered the last time the couple bumped into each other at the hotel and how they disliked each other. He also remembered that after the jewelry competition that day, Mr. Lu and his wife were sitting in the car calling his wife.
But he always had a sinister expression when he was hung up.
Now, after many days, the boss and his wife are talking so calmly again, even though they are calling each other a dog, but it is already strange for the well-informed driver.
The driver was about to take a second look when he suddenly met a pair of cold eyes in the rearview mirror. He trembled all over, quickly looked away and started driving seriously.
Lu Yanbei glanced lightly, then lowered his eyes, staring at Ji Xingchen's exquisite and beautiful face: "Ji Xingchen."
Ji Xingchen grabbed the hem of his shirt that was still wet and said, "What are you doing?"
Lu Yanbei said in a deep voice: "Wife."
Ji Xingchen grabbed the corner of her clothes and played with it for a moment. Her cheeks were inexplicably rosy. She pretended to be calm and said nothing.
In fact, she didn't know whether she should accept Lu Yanbei's title of wife.
Ji Xingchen saw the nervousness and fear in his expression when he jumped into the water without hesitation tonight and rescued her.
Later, Jiang Shu and his gang were punished mercilessly. It would be a lie to say that they are not moved by this.
Ji Xingchen sometimes feels that he is being hypocritical. Liang Chao saved Lu Yanbei's life. Isn't it right for Lu Yanbei to be nice to his sister?
But she was so pretentious that she couldn't convince herself that in the past many years, at least from Ji Xingchen's perspective, from an outsider's perspective, Lu Yanbei always put Liang Ruo first.
She listened to Lu Yanbei's explanations.
But she, Ji Xingchen, was born arrogant, and she wanted to be the only one.
Such stubborn and awkward thoughts made her compete with Lu Yanbei for so many days.
However, tonight, Ji Xingchen was inexplicably relieved again.
Jiang Shu and his gang are all daughters of aristocratic families. Although the Jiang family started as a nouveau riche, they have firmly occupied a position in Beicheng over the years, a position that belongs to the Jiang family. The few followers around Jiang Shu are not from low family backgrounds either.
Today, Lu Yanbei first insulted Liang Ruo in front of her because of her, and then went to quarrel with the Jiang family because of her.
Ji Xingchen felt sweet in her heart. The depression that had haunted her for several years seemed to have finally cleared away tonight, and the feelings that had been buried for many years finally came to light tonight.
While it was sweet, she was also quite confused.
What's the fuss about? Probably because he's afraid that the trust he has given him again will become a complete joke like the one with Firefly.
While she was frowning and thinking wildly, a heavy, cold, yet extremely serious voice came from above her head.
"Xingxing, how about not getting divorced?"
