Bo Chengcheng forced a smile and shook her head. “It’s alright, I’ll get going first.”
Then, she quickly walked past them.
In the days that followed, Bo Chengcheng was in a daze.
Jiang Yeqing had always lived his life with her cautiously. Now that he had noticed Bo Chengcheng’s exceptionally icy attitude, he couldn’t help but wonder: What had he done wrong again?
Although he thought about this, Jiang Yeqing couldn’t bring himself to ask. Instead, he held up the noodles that he had painstakingly made and said aloud, “I went on a business trip some time ago and realized that the Zhajiang noodles in the capital are quite delicious, so I thought of a way to learn how to make it. Look, it’s fresh and still warm. Quickly eat it while it’s hot.”
Bo Chengcheng looked at his ingratiating smile and felt a lump forming in her throat.
She wanted to tell him the truth, but her rationality stopped her.
Where this matter was concerned, she had the choice of allowing herself to be lied to, and pretending that she didn’t know about it. Because if she blew his cover, both of them could end up being awkward.
They were already legally married. If this matter got blown up, there would be the question of whether they should get a divorce.
Grandma was not in good health. At least, on the surface, they could act as though everything was fine.
Bo Chengcheng hesitated for a moment, picked up her chopsticks, and took a symbolic bite.
When Jiang Yeqing saw that she had eaten it, he was so happy that he felt like he could fly. He started to introduce it happily and said, “Look, I chose very good pork tenderloin. I had done a lot of asking around and I even personally sliced the meat. However, it took a lot of effort. I failed a few times before I succeeded this time…”
As Jiang Yeqing yakked on, Bo Chengcheng suddenly placed her chopsticks down on the table.
The man’s expression stiffened. He looked at her intently and asked, “What’s wrong?”
That lump in her throat wouldn’t go away. She turned her head and got onto her feet. Her voice was slightly choked as she quickly said, “I can’t eat anymore.”
Then, she turned around and left.
Jiang Yeqing glanced at the noodles.
She had taken only a small bite.
His expression was a little distorted as he mumbled, “Does it taste that awful…”
Then, Bo Chengcheng heard him moving the stool. From the indistinct reflection of the television not far away, she could see Jiang Yeqing pulling the bowl over and picking up the chopsticks to taste it.
When she saw this, her tears fell uncontrollably. Immediately, she turned around and walked into the bathroom of the master bedroom.
Half a month passed peacefully. On one particular day, Bo Chengcheng had planned to pick Li Beinian up for afternoon tea. Unexpectedly, she met with a small accident on the way.
This was the first time Bo Chengcheng had encountered such bad luck in her life.
She was kidnapped with Nian Nian.
She saw them making a call to Jiang Yeqing, but he was still as sloppy as ever.
It was her, who had brought all the trouble upon Nian Nian.
In order to get away, she told the story of Jiang Yeqing having a lover, and that she was now pregnant. The made-up story was vivid and she had even given the other woman a name, Xu Yafeng.
The story she told the P.I.T. was a mix of truths and lies, although Jiang Yeqing’s attitude broke her heart.
The matter was resolved perfectly, but their relationship turned icy.
It wasn’t that she couldn’t see Jiang Yeqing’s good intentions, but she couldn’t accept that her man had a child with another woman.
On the other hand, she didn’t want to fall out with him, so she pretended not to know.
However, her tolerance eventually hit point break.
Whether Cheng Huaxing’s appearance was intentional or otherwise, the fact was that he had made her see the light.
