The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 230 - 131 But Lu Jingchen, I Don’t Want to Like You Anymore_2

Lu Jingchen paused at this point, seemingly at a loss for words.

He was actually going to meet Song Qiao, but as he entered the hall and saw Zuo Yuqing fallen on the ground in agony, his heart was completely overtaken by Yuqing, not out of deep love, but rather it was a subconscious reaction.

He always remembered that Zuo Yuqing’s health wasn’t very good, especially considering that they had been in a relationship for so many years, it wasn’t something he could just let go easily.

At the time, he didn’t recognize Song Qiao, and he didn’t know if it was because she had recently styled her hair in big waves, which is why he didn’t recognize her immediately.

He knew that this couldn’t be an excuse for hurting Song Qiao, but what was done was done, and it wasn’t possible to turn back time to that moment.

Song Qiao didn’t struggle, she obediently let him kiss the corner of her lips, and after a long while, she lifted her lips and smiled, saying, "Lu Jingchen, sometimes I think our marriage might have been a mistake..."

Lu Jingchen’s breathing halted, and a second later, it deepened as he stared intently at Song Qiao, his voice tinged with gloom, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Song Qiao smiled.

Look, Mr. Lu still couldn’t control the anger in his heart, that look as if he was about to devour her alive, or even strangle her in the next second, it was truly frightening.

Even though she was getting nervous inside, she was very clear that there were many things this man might not want to hear, but she still had to say them, otherwise she feared she would go mad.

She admitted that she had fallen for Lu Jingchen, even a bit in love, and that was why, before her feelings for him grew uncontrollable, she had to harshly cut them off.

The person who falls in love first always ends up hurt the deepest, and she, who easily relinquishes her heart to any man who is kind and gentle towards her, is very vulnerable.

Barely looking at him with half-lowered eyes, the smile on her face faded, and no longer in a joking tone, but rather with a serious one, she spoke word by word, "Lu Jingchen, let’s get a divorce."

This wasn’t the first time she had suggested a divorce. The earlier times were just after getting married, but those were always ignored by this man.

Later, she thought, maybe the day will come when Lu Jingchen tires of her, and he would agree to a divorce willingly?

At the beginning, she never imagined herself falling in love with Lu Jingchen. Once, someone online claimed that Lu Jingchen was the most loved man in An City, and that women who met him would inexplicably be charmed.

At that time, she scoffed at such online comments.

Who would have thought that in this brief period of companionship, she would truly be charmed by him.

She had found many excuses for herself, among them thinking she was lacking love, and another was because Lu Jingchen was the most handsome man she had ever met.

Even though she wasn’t someone overly concerned with appearances.

The hand that had been caressing her chin stopped, and his handsome features were expressionless, darkened a bit, but those eyes seemed to be swirling with a formless rage as he lowered his head to look at her delicate face. After a long while, he spoke in a calm, indifferent tone, "Qiaoqiao, I have never thought about getting a divorce right now."

"Lu Jingchen, don’t you like Zuo Yuqing?" Song Qiao didn’t back down, staring right back at him and asking, but her tone wasn’t accusatory.

The man paused, hummed softly after a long while before saying, "But I like you a little more than I like her."

Song Qiao was stunned, somewhat surprised, but quickly she tugged at her lips and spoke softly, "But Lu Jingchen, I don’t want to like you anymore."

The repeated investments she made only resulted in hurt, and she wasn’t this upset even when Gu Linyuan betrayed her.

But when Lu Jingchen pushed her aside to anxiously pick up Zuo Yuqing, her heart hurt so badly for a moment she almost suffocated.

Often, just one experience of betrayal was enough to instill fear, just like how she feared walking the same path with Lu Jingchen after being betrayed by Gu Linyuan.

...

When Lu An’an came back, she didn’t see Lu Jingchen. As she put down the thermal container and prepared to set up dinner, she asked, "Qiaoqiao, where’s your husband?"

Song Qiao was lying sideways on the bed, the pain in her waist causing her to grimace as she spoke sullenly after a long while, "He’s gone."

Lu Jingchen had stormed out, his departure was so fierce it was frightening; even Song Qiao herself was scared, fearing that the man might lose his restraint and strangle her.

Lu An’an’s hand paused as she was opening the thermal container, then suddenly recalling the speeding Bentley Mulsanne she saw when she just returned, realized it might be her brother’s car. Keeping this in mind, she set the lid aside and asked, "Qiaoqiao, you didn’t have a fight with him, did you?"

"No fight. I just suggested that we should get divorced," Song Qiao huffed, sniffing the aroma of the food slowly getting up, "I’m so hungry, what did you bring me to eat?"
