Shaking her head, Lin Wan thought she was being a little too sketchy.
This was funny. It was just a casual question, what could those words possibly mean? How could she associate it with her husband being angry?
“It's been a while since we've shared a romantic moment. And I want to have a candlelight dinner with you.”
Lin Wan cheerfully replied to her husband but was greeted with silence from the other side. Li Mu did not respond to her message, as if he had not seen the message she sent him.
“Honey, don't you like it?” Lin Wan couldn't help but send another message.
He replied instantly, with three big red words plastered on the screen, “No, I don’t!”
Lin Wan's felt the urge to cry. She cooked with so much effort just to enjoy a romantic candlelight dinner with her husband, and the response she got was that her husband didn't like it.
Little did she know that her husband was well aware
When she returned home, Lin Wan found that her husband still had not come home. She could not help but call Li Mu, who told her that he had left Shanyang for an urgent business trip.Lin Wan was stunned and took a long time to react before asking a very stupid question, “You… You've been home?”“Yes, I've gone home to pack my bags and just left a while ago. You don't have to worry about anything. I'll be away for about three days or so. I'll be back when I'm done here!”“Why didn't you give me a call if you were back home?” Lin Wan asked the second stupid question.“The fact that you're just thinking of calling me now means that you've just returned home. May I ask why you didn’t give me a call instead when you were out late at night?” Li Mu retorted slowly.“I… I was caught up with a rehearsal!” Lin Wan said sheepishly.“Oh, I see. Did their parents get mad at you for asking their kids to rehearse
“Why are you calling me this early?” Her husband spoke without affection.“Where are you?”“I’m in the hotel!”“I want to meet you at the hotel!”“Isn’t the final coming up very soon? Don't bother coming and focus on the competition instead. I'll go back soon!”“I want to have a video call with you then!”“Why?”“I haven't been seeing you a lot these few days. I miss you. I want to have a video call with you!” Lin Wan said affectionately.Without saying anything, Li Mu video-called her.Once the video call was connected, Lin Wan observed her husband's surroundings on purpose. She then breathed a huge sigh of relief and asked with a smile, “Honey, did you have breakfast already?”“Breakfast won’t be served until 7:30 in the morning. It’s not time yet. I'll head down and have breakfast later!”“You look really pale. Did you stay up late?
Lin Wan wasn’t aware that she had fallen into a well-planned trap. In fact, it wasn’t just her. Lu Fangliang was not aware either.He had no idea that their date was being videotaped, nor did he know that the video footage would be sent to Lin Wan's husband.He thought he was just involved in a plan to get Lin Wan’s heart, but he didn't know that he had been used by people who had ill intentions. He was just like a puppet on a string, carefully acting out the story set by others.But what he just did was not planned or discussed beforehand. It was entirely his own intentions. His actions angered Lin Wan. She decided to stay away from him as soon as the finals was over. It seemed like he was getting bolder and bolder as time went by. This was definitely not a good sign.“Mr. Lu, please behave yourself. I don't want this to happen again. You should understand what I mean.” Lin Wan said in a serious tone.
Lin Wan liked the diamond ring a lot. After hearing Xiao's suggestion, she compared its size to her left ring finger and put it on without any further thoughts.She had her wedding ring on her right ring finger, so she could only wear it on her left hand. Thankfully she wasn’t foolish enough to take off her wedding ring.This was enough to make everyone in the room compliment how good it looked. Lin Wan herself was also pleased with how it looked.She even thought of dragging her husband along with her to order a set of couple rings when he returned. After putting the ring away, Lu Fangliang pointed to another gift box and asked, “What's in this?”Xiao opened the gift box which contained three rectangular jewelry boxes.Upon opening the jewelry box, three beautiful necklaces were displayed in front of them.This was also a set of family jewelry. The man’s accessory boasted generosity a
After the rehearsal, the students left the classroom one after another. Mr. Yan invited Lin Wan to his office and said, “Miss Lin, the competition tomorrow marks the end of our time working together. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to you on behalf of the school!”“Don’t mention it, Mr. Yan. Thank you for providing me with this opportunity so that I can bring my education career to a successful end.” Lin Wan replied sincerely. She wasn’t trying to be polite, but she meant it from the bottom of her heart and was sincerely grateful to Mr. Yan for providing her with such an opportunity.Headmaster Yan waved his hand and said with a smile, “Don’t mention it either, Miss Lin. It’s my job to do so. Miss Lin, there is something I’d like to tell you, but I’m worried it’ll offend you.”“Are you trying to persuade me to go back to school? If so, you don't have to try. I will leave Shanyang City soon and may not come back. I really c
He Xiaoyu opened a gift box and placed a copy of the CD in it. She then sealed the box and handed it to Li Mu.“Are you planning to settle the score with her tomorrow?”“Is there still a need for me to do so? I'm going to write her a letter and leave her a divorce settlement. I’ll leave the rest to her!”He Xiaoyu said with disdain, “She has no choice but to agree for a divorce. What she did was equivalent to agreeing to Lu Fangliang's marriage proposal. I don’t think she has the audacity to not agree for a divorce upon seeing what she did!”Li Mu took off the wedding ring from his finger and held it in his hand. While looking at it carefully, his eyes were filled with reluctance and perplexity.He Xiaoyu snatched it away from him and threw it out the window. Not far away was an artificial lake, and the ring plopped into the water with a small splash and sank to the bottom.This action upset Li Mu a
Mrs. Hong was very patient and watched all the videos from the beginning to the end. She couldn’t stop sighing as she watched them and looked at Lin Wan with pity in her eyes.It was already early the next morning when she finished watching the last disc. Lin Wan had no tears left to cry and was cowering tightly in the corner of the sofa, looking so pitiful and helpless.“Lin Wan, tell me the truth. Do you like this man, Lu Fangliang?”Lin Wan shook her head vigorously and said in a firm tone, “I only like my husband!”“Then why did you…?”“I didn't give it any second thoughts. I just didn't want to break that child's heart. She had a similar experience to mine, and I couldn't bear to hurt her. I just wanted to leave her some good memories.”“So you decided to leave her father some good memories too?”“No, no. It's all that girl's fault. It's all her. It's all her!”Mrs. Ho
“Seems like this wasn’t done too long ago!” Mrs. Hong pondered to herself, “I have a way to break the spell then. It’s just that after breaking it, it will be a little too much for Li Mu to handle. I can't help it. For the sake of Miss Lin’s life, he’ll have to suffer a little!”Having made up her mind, Mrs. Hong stopped dwelling on the matter. Instead, she pulled Lin Wan to sit down and asked seriously, “Lin Wan, tell me first. What are you going to do next?”Lin Wan's gaze turned malevolent as she said through gritted teeth. “Find out everyone who has set me up and make them pay a heavy price. I will spare none of them no matter their age.”“That's the spirit!” Mrs. Hong said, pleased. “After this ordeal, you must keep one thing in mind: You can be kind, but not coward. Miss Lin, your prestige must never be violated. All violators must be duly punished!”Lin Wan said seriously, “I swear on my life that anyone will never be
