C31

The next day at noon, I stood at the door of the hotel to look at the name of this hotel - Xiangshan Hotel.

I thought back to the night when Teng Wan jumped off the building in the hospital. It was this hotel that Zhou Jin had brought me to when I had nowhere to go.

I took one last look at the name of the hotel, straightened my clothes, and went in.

The restaurant Zheng Xin and I had arranged to meet up at was on the forty-ninth floor of the hotel.

I stand in the elevator and take a deep breath. Next to me are a young couple and a middle-aged couple who probably came to celebrate the anniversary.

I stood in the corner and looked at my clothes. They were a light colored dress, a light yellow shirt, and long, curly hair that was tied back behind my head. They made me look like a conservative, gentle woman.

As the elevator arrived, I stepped out.

Zheng Xin was sitting in an eye-catching position in the dining hall.

Next to him sat a young girl, perhaps eighteen or nineteen years old. She was a great woman, dressed in shorts and a tank top, her long flaxen-colored hair hanging down carelessly over her shoulders. Her smile was full of life, unlike the last girl I had seen.

He really was young. I sighed in my heart, Zhou Jin should be in love with such a girl, I personally pulled him into the dirty whirlpool.

"Zheng Xin." I sat across from him and looked at him.

Zheng Xin glanced at me with a smile, then waved his hand to summon the servant.

"What do you want to eat?" Zheng Xin asked me. His tone was casual, as if I wasn't the kind to seek justice for his wife.

I shook my head, Zheng Xin smiled, called out a few names, and indicated for the waiter to go down.

The girl at the side was very tactful, she only focused on eating, giving Zheng Xin some food from time to time, asking him with a sweet tone, "Is it delicious?"

Zheng Xin nodded, and at the same time, kissed the girl's face.

I drank a mouthful of water, took a deep breath in, and said to Zheng Xin, "Zheng Xin, I've come today because of Li Jie."

Zheng Xin looked up at me, the smile on his face had disappeared, he looked at me and asked, "Why is she not coming here herself?"

"She was scared by you." "So I'll do it for her."

"Oh?" Zheng Xin looked at me with a smile that was not a smile and said, "What can you say? What do you want to say? "

He was very confident. He had long known that Li Jie would not leave him, and from the very beginning, Li Jie had already lost.

I looked at him and smiled. "She told me to tell you that she would never stay out of the night again and that she would be a good wife."

The girl beside me raised her eyes to look at me after hearing my words. A trace of disgust and contempt flashed past her eyes;

"Be my good wife?" Zheng Xin laughed exaggeratedly, "I can have anyone I want as my wife now, why would I need a woman that doesn't listen to me."

"After all, she gave you a baby." "And she promised me that she would sit quietly at home and be a good decorator."

After Zheng Xin heard what I said, he kept his smile and looked at me, and said, "Is that what you said?"

"Yes." I looked back at him.

Zheng Xin revealed a shallow smile, the smile on his face was more sincere than before, "You are very special."

I listened to him.

"At the beginning, I thought you were an idiot. Even though you have resources and your parents have connections, you chose the worst husband." Although Zheng Xin used the word idiot towards me, his face didn't have the slightest hint of apology.

I am indeed a fool, otherwise why would I choose a husband like Xie Zongming.

"But ever since we met by accident, I've discovered that you're very different." Zheng Xin smiled at me. His eyes were still arrogant, but he treated me as his own kind.

"Is that so?" I replied noncommittally as I took a sip of the red wine that the waiter had brought over.

"Why don't you get a divorce?" Zheng Xin asked me with a little more seriousness in his tone.

I looked up at him. "Because I'm going to spit out everything he ate from me."

Zheng Xin clapped his hands and laughed, as if he had heard a joke.

His laughter was very loud. The people at the surrounding tables all turned to look at him, but he didn't care at all.

I looked around, a little embarrassed.

"Li Jie already knows her wrongs." "Don't hit her again."

Zheng Xin kissed the beautiful face of the girl beside him, and said, "I promise you, but I have a condition."

"What condition?" I asked, staring at him.

"Sleep with me." Zheng Xin blurted out, but as soon as he said that, the expression of the girl beside him changed, and she almost sent the meat that she was about to stuff into Zheng Xin's mouth into his nose.

I wasn't as panicked as she was. I smiled as I glanced at him, "Stop joking. This joke is very boring. Moreover, you don't have any plans to sleep with me, right?"

Zheng Xin's face revealed an expression of regret, "I had thought that you would put on a play that demanded the whole thing."

"Have you watched too many TV dramas?" I laughed.

Zheng Xin waved his hands, and said in the end, "Let Li Jie go home, as long as she doesn't anger me in the future, I won't hit her."

"Alright." "Then I'll go first."

I stood up and left, but Zheng Xin's words came from behind, "Aren't we going to have lunch together? Your husband probably won't want to come here with you. "

I pretended not to hear him and quickly left.

As I walked along the corridor, flanked by well-dressed men and women, I thought about what had happened.

Zheng Xin didn't have any ill intentions towards me, and he wasn't interested in sleeping with me either.

The relationship between the two of us was more like that of a friend. The last time we ran into each other's lovers, our relationship had unknowingly become closer.

"Xia Ying..." Just as I was about to get on the elevator, I heard a familiar voice coming from my side.

I turned my head and saw Zhou Jin standing against the wall not far away. His clothes were very casual and he tilted his head to look at me, his eyes a little red.

I was glad to see him. I went over to him and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I saw it." Zhou Jin looked at me, his clear eyes filled with pain.

When I looked at him, I immediately knew that Zhou Jin had probably seen me together with Zheng Xin.

"He's my friend's husband, and I'm here as a lobbyist."

Zhou Jin looked at me deeply. He, who was usually bright, seemed to be enveloped by a dense darkness. His entire person seemed to have fallen into despair, unable to break away from the darkness.

He grabbed my hand and took the elevator. We reached the top floor of the building and he led me into the room.

We came to the same room as last time, all white and all wood.

As soon as Zhou Jin entered the room, he pressed me against the door. He looked at me and breathed heavily. His gaze was different from usual, full of predatory intent.

He put his cool arm around my waist.

"What's the matter with you?" I asked him. He was different now.
