Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Should I thank you for not abusing me after being married for so many years?” Du Jiuyuan used alcohol to wipe the dried blood on Ji Jingchen’s arm, and her voice got louder and louder.

Ji Jingchen’s expression changed when he heard this. He clenched his fists tightly, and his entire body exuded an unpleasant aura.

“There’s no need for further explanation. When we were in a relationship, you kept it a secret. Now that we are no longer in a relationship, I don’t want to know anything. I won’t tell anyone about what happened yesterday night. You can leave now!” Du Jiuyuan realized she had gone a little overboard.

She took a deep breath, packed up the medical kit, and uttered the words slowly. Du Jiuyuan got up and was about to enter the house.

“I have manic depression and bipolar disorder.” Ji Jingchen’s hoarse voice came from behind. Du Jiuyuan stopped in her tracks. The medical kit fell to the ground.

“Alcohol and cigarettes will stimulate my nerves and cause me to lose control.” Ji Jingchen seemed to have exhausted all his strength when he said this, and his nerves were tense.

“I don’t hate you, but I don’t know how to get along with you. I’m afraid of hurting you, and I don’t know what love is.” Ji Jingchen was trying his best to control himself.

Du Jiuyuan picked up the medical kit as if nothing had happened. She turned around and looked at Ji Jingchen with a flash of heartache in her eyes.

“In that case, should I thank you?” Du Jiuyuan was not afraid of him. Besides, she had hopelessly loved him back then, so she could tolerate everything. However, she then realized that Ji Jingchen was wary of everyone.

“I was afraid that if other people knew about this, the Ji family would fall into chaos again,” Ji Jingchen raised his head to look at her.

Even an ordinary person with this disease would be looked at with prejudice, let alone Ji Jingchen. Should this secret be exposed, the Ji family and Ji Corporation’s competitors would use this as an excuse to make a fuss.

Du Jiuyuan understood what he meant. The first person she thought of was Ji Jingchen’s second uncle, who was also Ji Yanchen’s father.

Back then, when the Ji family had an internal conflict, Ji Jingchen’s second uncle had committed acts that harmed his brothers and sisters. Although Grandfather Ji was angry, the second uncle was still a blood relative, so he was assigned to Africa instead. Even Grandmother Ji was very dissatisfied with Ji Jingchen’s second uncle. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

Many years had passed, yet Ji Jingchen’s second uncle had always been in contact with the shareholders of the Ji Corporation. If he were to find out about this secret, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Although Du Jiuyuan understood Ji Jingchen’s problem, it was still hard for her to accept it. Du Jiuyuan also realized that Ji Jingchen, whom she had loved for many years, had never gotten to know her.

“Then weren’t you afraid of hurting me? You still came to my place after you drank.” The corners of Du Jiuyuan’s mouth curled up in a strange arc. It was impossible to tell what emotions she was feeling right now.

“My friends forced me to drink. But since I’ve been taking pills to control my disorders, I thought I could control it,” Ji Jingchen explained.

Du Jiuyuan wanted to say something so that Ji Jingchen would stop seeing Li Ruyan. The woman always made Du Jiuyuan feel that she had ulterior motives, but Du Jiuyuan swallowed her words.

“Ji Jingchen…” Just as Du Jiuyuan was about to say something else, she was interrupted by Ji Jingchen.

“I’ll compensate for the losses I caused here. I’m going to work.” Ji Jingchen didn’t give her a chance to speak. He got up and left quickly.

Du Jiuyuan walked to the bedroom door and saw the glass shards and destroyed cosmetics placed in the room’s corner. She could guess how miserable Ji Jingchen felt last night.

Her heart was in a mess. She only now realized that the man who had once given her happiness was suffering from within. In his heart, there was only darkness and endless pain.

…

Ji Jingchen didn’t go back to the Ji family home. Instead, he went straight to the office since there was a set of clean clothes and a private shower room there. He took a shower and changed. As soon as he came out, he received a call from Lu Ziang.

“How was it? Did you make any progress last night?” Lu Ziang’s voice sounded like he had been drinking for the entire night.

Ji Jingchen didn’t reply. He hung up the phone and added Lu Ziang’s number to his blocklist. Ji Jingchen then called Peter and asked him to send Du Jiuyuan compensation for what he had broken.

Du Jiuyuan didn’t go to the studio. Instead, she cleaned up the mess at home. Her tears fell unconsciously upon seeing the bloody glass shards. She could only imagine how helpless Ji Jingchen was.

The doorbell rang, and she opened the door without thinking.

“Miss Du, please excuse me.. I’m here to deliver something on CEO Ji’s orders,” Peter said respectfully.
