115 It’s Not What You Think
“You…” Nangong Jue was actually speechless. This woman had really changed too much after leaving him. If… if she had been like this before, would he still want a divorce?
The answer was definitely no.
He took a deep breath.
“About the trending topic, it’s not what it looks like.”
“What?” Le Yao didn’t react for a moment.
“Last night…”
“Stop!” Le Yao raised her hand and made a gesture to stop. “I don’t want to mention what happened yesterday. Besides, don’t tell me about your relationship in the future. I’m really not interested in knowing. I said that I wouldn’t disturb you for a year. I mean what I say, but please don’t disturb me. Let’s just be familiar strangers, okay?”
“No.” Nangong Jue’s eyes darkened. “We’re still legally married under the protection of the country’s laws. How can we be strangers? Besides, Mengmeng and I, between me and Yan Zimeng, it’s really not what you think…”
“Then what? You invested in a television drama for her and carried her around in public…” The sarcasm on Le Yao’s face intensified. “Have you ever thought about my feelings as a legal wife? Nangong Jue, I don’t believe you can’t tell what she’s thinking. Since you said last night, let me ask you. Don’t you have bodyguards under you? Don’t you have attendants in the bar? And she only sprained her ankle, not stabbed. Do you need to carry her out personally?”
“I…” Nangong Jue frowned. He hadn’t thought too much about it at that time.
“Nangong Jue, I really don’t like you anymore, so you have no obligation to me. You can be at ease and bold enough to like your Mengmeng. I’m also sincerely giving up my position to you. Please let me go on account of my sincerity. Don’t always come and disgust me.” Le Yao put her palms together. “I really don’t want to get involved in your story at all. Please.”
Nangong Jue was about to say something when he saw Qiao Qiao walking over with two bodyguards. “Baby, is it over?”
“It’s over.” Le Yao smiled and nodded. “I was about to look for you.”
She glanced at Nangong Jue. “Sir Jue is also here. I heard that Miss Yan is still in the hospital. Didn’t you go visit?”
Nangong Jue’s face had returned to normal. “Why should I go?”
Qiao Qiao shrugged. “After all… it’s inconvenient for her to move. You can carry her around if you go.”
“I did think too little yesterday.”
Qiao Qiao’s eyes widened. Was Sir Jue reflecting?
“It’s your business how much you want to think.” Le Yao was impatient and called out to Qiao Qiao, “Let’s go.”
“Alright, Cousin Lianyi knows you’re coming. She didn’t eat anything for breakfast and is waiting for you to save her.” Qiao Qiao went forward and took Le Yao’s arm before walking away with her.
Shen Yi glanced at Nangong Jue and paused.
Nangong Jue looked at the woman’s back and sighed. Why did things keep developing in the direction he was unwilling to see? He had a headache.
“Sir Jue.” At this moment, Zhu Jiaojiao ran out of the villa.
Nangong Jue frowned at her.
“I like you.” Zhu Jiaojiao raised her chin arrogantly. “I don’t mind your previous rudeness, nor do I mind your identity as an illegitimate child. As long as you marry me, you will obtain the support of the Zhu family in Beichuan City. It’s much better than you marrying that bumpkin Han Binglan. How about it? Will you consider it?”
