Chapter 25: Anger
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Every day, Yan Xia would return home first and ask the housekeeper to prepare dinner before Jiang Huai returned. The schedule was fixed and strict.
Yan Xia knew that he did not want the housekeeper to see them together. As long as the housekeeper did not see them, it would be as if they were not husband and wife.
Hence, every time the housekeeper asked her questions and even looked at her pitifully as if she was a divorcee, Yan Xia could only helplessly avoid it.
There was even one time when the housekeeper wanted to introduce her to a partner!
“Nanny Wang, my husband is just busy. We’re not divorced,” Yan Xia declined.
Today, Jiang Huai actually came back early and seemed to be in a good mood. He asked the housekeeper to prepare a table full of food. Wasn’t it because Zhang Ying was back?
Because Zhang Ying had returned, the gentle gentleman who had left home for three years had also returned.
Then what was she? A substitute?
Therefore, now that the real one was back, the substitute should give up her position and not be greedy for the sudden heat in the atmosphere.
Hence, Yan Xia’s instinct was to avoid Jiang Huai’s touch.
After being hit by Yan Xia, Jiang Huai’s suppressed anger came back.
Did this woman not know how to stop while she was ahead? She was a little insatiable!
The scene of Zhang Rui applying an ice compress on Yan Xia in the guest room at noon resurfaced in Jiang Huai’s mind. An indescribable feeling filled his heart. He only felt frustrated and unbearable, and his entire being became irritable.
Yan Xia refused to let him touch her, so he leaned over and grabbed her injured wrist. He brought her in front of him, and they were so close that they were face to face.
“You don’t want me to touch you? Or do you prefer the company’s fresh graduate to touch you?”
The two of them were so close that their noses were almost touching.
Jiang Huai’s hot breath blew on Yan Xia’s face as he spoke. The faint smell of wooden cologne from his body instantly enveloped her.
Jiang Huai squinted his eyes, completely ignoring the pain that Yan Xia was frowning at. He continued, “Yan Xia, I’ve really underestimated your ability to seduce men! You haven’t ended your relationship with Wu Chen, who has just returned to the country, and now you’ve hooked up with a young man. You’re really shameless!”
Every word that Jiang Huai said was like a whip that lashed on Yan Xia’s body. Each lash tore her skin apart and revealed the pain.
Yan Xia felt like she was covered in bruises and the wounds on her body were so humiliating that they could not be covered!
She even had the time to think about the ten great tortures in ancient times that couldn’t even compare to a single word that Jiang Huai said today.
Yan Xia laughed out of anger. She looked beautiful and determined. “Jiang Huai, you’ve always looked at me like this. You’ve never been willing to believe me and judge me with the most vicious thoughts!”
Jiang Huai had never seen this side of Yan Xia before. He didn’t know what to say. He only grabbed her fiercely and tightened his grip. It was as if the pain in his heart would only be reduced if she was in unbearable pain.
Yan Xia endured the pain in her wrist and said, “It doesn’t matter. I don’t need your trust, and I don’t need you to be good to me. I know that the person in your heart has always been Zhang Ying. Now that she’s back, I can give up my position to her! We can get a divorce!”
Yan Xia’s eyes were filled with tears and the corners of her mouth rose even higher.
Even though Yan Xia had always known that Jiang Huai did not love her, the reality that she was facing now felt like the scars that had formed after much difficulty was being torn open bit by bit, revealing the white flesh underneath. She could only lick the wound alone in the midst of the pain.
Yan Xia raised her head slightly. The tears in her eyes fell into her hair and disappeared without a trace. Her voice was calm like never before. “Jiang Huai, that’s it. I’ll let you go.”
Jiang Huai also felt that this was a humiliation. What did she mean by ‘let go’? It was as if all his stubbornness for the past three years had been one-sided and ridiculous!
She could always be so heartless, so heartless that she didn’t care about their child, so heartless that she didn’t care if he was sad or not. She only cared about herself!
She would only love herself the most and would only love others later on! The one she loved before was Wu Chen, but there would be others in the future!
