Chapter 265: Chapter 265: Reluctantly Doing It_1
"Jiayin, where have you been these past two days?" Shang Jingchen immediately rushed to the hospital after receiving the call.
That day he called Ye Lu, and a man who called himself a lover answered the phone, his veins nearly burst with anger, and he couldn’t get through no matter how hard he tried to redial.
He was furious and jealous. He wanted to go to Ye Lu right away and confront her about this.
But then the hospital suddenly called to say that Yuan Jiayin had disappeared. He had to suppress everything and go looking for Yuan Jiayin first, but he couldn’t find her even after two days of searching.
Yuan Jiayin showed up in the hospital this morning.
"Jingchen, I’ve had you worried, a friend was very sick these past two days, and I rushed out without thinking and without my phone. She didn’t make it, I was so devastated, in a daze, I even forgot to call and let you know. I just got back from the funeral." Yuan Jiayin kept her expression very calm, revealing no trace of what had happened.
The truth is, she stayed away until the swelling on her body had subsided, embarrassed to let anyone know about this disgraceful event, especially not Shang Jingchen.
"That’s good, next time remember to call. I have something else to take care of now, I need to go, get some rest."
Shang Jingchen let out a sigh of relief but immediately remembered about Ye Lu. He couldn’t bear the flames of jealousy and anger in his heart and hurriedly left.
When Yuan Jiayin saw him leave, she burst into a bitter laugh, both ironic and sad.
"I came back after being humiliated and you just hurry off without even giving me a proper look."
Or else how could you not notice my scars?
I’ve become invisible in your eyes.
"That’s men for you, so ruthless. When they love you, they protect you in every way. But when they don’t, they feel even a glance is a waste of time."
She used to be a naive and kindhearted girl, but for him, she was brutally harmed by his folks.
Forced to flee to Southeast Asia and wander around for years, even being kidnapped and forced into a brothel, abused by those disgusting men.
At that time, she swore to herself, if she survived, she would come back for revenge.
"Shang Jingchen, I gave everything to you, and in return, you fell in love with another woman. Hahaha, you forced my hand. All those who harm me will not die peacefully. Ye Lu, Old Man Shang, Madam Shang, watch out, I will send you to your graves one by one!" She burst into a hideous laugh.
...
Ye Lu got up early in the morning to make porridge.
She didn’t often have the time to prepare meals so thoroughly, so meticulously, because of her busy schedule.
Thinking about how the porridge was for the man she loved, she felt particularly joyful, as if she had returned to her girlhood.
"What are you doing?" Third Young Master Jun showed up in the kitchen.
Recently, he had grown accustomed to holding her as he slept. Waking up to find she had disappeared, he wasn’t happy and couldn’t go back to sleep.
"I’m making porridge." Ye Lu was a bit nervous.
Third Young Master Jun walked over, picked up a spoon, and took a couple of slow tastes, frowning: "It’s too bland, I don’t like such mild flavors."
Ye Lu gritted her teeth, it wasn’t made for him anyway, who cared whether he liked it or not.
"However, since you made it specially for me, I’ll force myself to eat it." Disguising his dislike, he picked up the large bowl of porridge and devoured it all.
Furious, Ye Lu wanted to cry, so distasteful yet cleaned out, what kind of man is this, now she has to make it all over again.
"Although your cooking is not that of a world-class chef, it’s passable. From now on, I will leave my breakfast to you."
