Surprise! Love-brained Mr. Li has made his ex-girlfriend his girlfriend

Chapter 173: Mr. Li's True Nature Revealed

Stop loss in time? Li Zhen couldn't help holding his breath after hearing this. After a long while, he said, "You asked me three questions. Can we trust each other after marriage? Do you think you can do it if the price is right? Is it okay if you don't like me?"

At this point, he raised a self-deprecating smile, "If my answer is 'yes', will you agree to be with me?"

Lu Xingchen couldn't help but frown, and the words "no" came to his mind.

Li Zhen chuckled.

"You will definitely not agree, because the purpose of your words is to reject me. Even if I push your bottom line to the limit, you will still try to break through it. Distrust is an excuse you can use anytime and anywhere. Because you gave up on me before, so if there is any sign or if you want, it will become my motivation for revenge on you."

Lu Xingchen was speechless, because what he said seemed... absolutely right.

Her silence made Li Zhen smile bitterly, "Did you really not notice? Before, when you said I had nothing and that I didn't agree with you, I was begging you to give me a chance. Now that you say you don't like me, I'm still begging you to give me a chance. Our separation and reunion are all because of you."

Having said that, Li Zhen couldn't help but feel that he was indeed not manly at all, so he took a deep breath.

"Yes, when I first heard that you misunderstood the relationship between Deng Peiling and your father, and that you deliberately came to snatch me, the so-called first love of Deng Peiling, it was indeed difficult for me to accept it, but what I couldn't accept the most was that you said you never liked me and that everything was fake, because I was real, I really liked you, I was willing to sleep with you, and I even always thought that you were real."

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen swallowed and said, "So, maybe you shouldn't hate me more than you like me?"

"Heh." Li Zhen laughed softly, "Just the fact that I don't trust you is something you can use to interrogate me at any time, and you won't believe my answer no matter what I say."

Are you tired?

tired.

Li Zhen's expression finally darkened, and his voice became darker and colder as well.

"I admit that I do regret what happened last night. I feel even more like a beast when I forced myself on you even though I knew you were injured. But I am a beast to begin with. Even if I regret it, what happened last night will happen again sooner or later. I have an unreasonable possessiveness towards you like a wild animal."

Lu Xingchen felt a stab in the heart when he heard these words.

Li Zhen did not curb his ambition at all. "To be honest, I don't really like the way that I need to constantly persuade and compromise to win your favor. If you like it, I think it would be a win-win for everyone. But not only do you not like it, you will also withdraw at any time. Instead of doing this..."

Although Lu Xingchen couldn't see it, Li Zhen's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharpness, "Then everything will be done according to my wishes from now on."

"Li Zhen..."

"Don't you think I'm taking revenge on you? Then I am taking revenge on you, and I plan to do it for the rest of my life."

He was angry, but Lu Xingchen was also uncomfortable, "Boss Li, are you so angry because you can't get what you want? Is it so difficult for you to part ways amicably?"

"When I die, maybe you can get a peaceful ending." After saying this, he hung up the phone.

Lu Xingchen's heart was pounding, and he didn't know if it was because he was angry or anxious, but he felt that things might not end as well as before.

But I still have to go to class as usual.

Lu Xingchen's new hair was cut very short. When Zhao Wenjing and Chen Xiaolin saw them for the first time, they had the same reaction: Did they really break up?

Although it had nothing to do with the breakup, Lu Xingchen still went with the flow and admitted that they had "broken up" to prevent Zhao Wenjing from constantly asking her who her boyfriend was.

Lu Xingchen originally thought that this would give him some peace and quiet, but an uninvited guest came to his door.

Zhang Qiaoai sent a message: I am Zhang Qiaoai. I will wait for you in the cafe opposite your company at 6pm. If you don’t come, I can wait for you downstairs of your company.

Lu Xingchen arrived at the cafe as promised.

Zhang Qiaoai sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window where sunlight shone diagonally. She was wearing a one-shoulder miniskirt and her curly hair was tied into a high ponytail. When she saw Lu Xingchen walking over, she watched her slowly pick up the coffee on the table and started drinking it.

When Lu Xingchen sat down, she said sarcastically, "I didn't expect you to play this game."

Lu Xingchen didn’t understand what she meant, but guessed that it was most likely related to Chu Zeyan.

Then Zhang Qiaoai said something out of context, "I'm the one who's been with my second brother all this time. Why do you get to sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor?"

Not wanting to deal with this nonsense, Lu Xingchen said expressionlessly, "If you are unhappy and want to vent your anger to someone, it's best to negotiate a price with me first. If it's appropriate, I can listen to your talk."

"Lu Xingchen, do you dare to say that you didn't know that Chu Zeyan was valued by Chu's grandfather, so you deliberately went to his house to spend the night?"

Lu Xingchen was puzzled. How come everyone except herself knew that she had spent the night at Chu Zeyan's place?

"I really don't know."

"Who are you trying to deceive? I wonder how you could have tried to curry favor with Li Zhen some time ago, but now you're trying to get Chu Zeyan? Besides seducing him, have you ever found out how he got to where he is today?"

Lu Xingchen was puzzled.

But Zhang Qiaoai didn't care whether she wanted to hear it or not and just said, "Old Master Chu was seriously ill, and his sons and grandsons started to fight over the family property. Only Second Brother Chu stood on the side of the old master and forcibly stopped the others from dividing up the property and the dock. If the old master hadn't just pretended to be ill and stood up to support him, he might have died at the hands of his uncles."

No wonder Chu Zeyan didn't show up for a long time. It turned out that the Chu family was fighting for the family property. Lu Xingchen looked at Zhang Qiaoai, "You told me this, do you want me to praise him for his resourcefulness or for judging the situation?"

"I'm telling you that I was there for him during this difficult time."

"Oh, were you accompanying him to give him advice or to protect him from the knife?"

"You...I support him!"

"You supported him spiritually?" Lu Xingchen nodded. "That does count as companionship. Then may I ask in what capacity do you support him?"

"Lu Xingchen..."

"Zhang Qiaoai, don't say that I have no relationship with Chu Zeyan. Even if I do, you have to get a status from him that allows you to resist other women around him, instead of warning others based on your own imagination. Let me ask you, what status do you have to ask me not to do this or that with him?"

Zhang Qiaoai was speechless, but she finally took a deep breath and raised her chin and said, "I, Zhang Qiaoai, have a crush on him. I will tear apart anyone who dares to covet me."

Lu Xingchen looked at her for a long while. "In that case, you don't need to call me out, because you won't believe me even if I say it has nothing to do with him, and you are not willing to ask him in person, so I can only consider myself unlucky. But I also have something to say in advance, I won't offend others if they don't offend me, but if you want to tear me apart, you'd better be prepared to bear the consequences."

Zhang Qiao loved her cheap clothes and not only was he not threatened by her, he threatened her instead. In a rage, he picked up the coffee and poured it on her.

Lu Xingchen was prepared and was faster than her in using the coffee cup to splash back at her face.

Zhang Qiaoai closed her eyes and jumped up screaming, "Lu Xingchen!"

"If you are sick, go get treatment immediately and don't come out and disrupt public order." Lu Xingchen said this, picked up his bag and left.
