It’s been a few days now since I’ve been married to Joey Xu, so what about when I’m married?
What happens when you get married?
If every day in the future was to be spent living such a life of being left out in the cold, how long would she be able to hold out?
Sammy Jones turned around, adjusting his sleeping position, and in the next instant, only to feel a sharp pain explode from the small of his back. A stifled grunt came out as a warmth surged through his body.
The mc is coming!
Sammy Jones was immediately alert and got up from the bed.
It was a good thing she had prepared these things long ago. Quickly rummaging through her clean clothes, she pulled open another drawer for the tampons she had prepared long ago.
Hurriedly taking it out, she was about to slam the bedside drawer shut when a bright flash of light flashed into her eyes, directly piercing her pupils.
The sparkling thin ring was none other than the ring that she had picked out with Joey Xu last time.
In the future, wedding bands …
He, in fact, took it down?
She remembered the last time she had joked with him that she was going to take the ring off, but he had gotten mad. The bully threatened that she would not be allowed to take it off for the rest of her life.
Because …
This means, she is trapped by him …
But now, he himself has committed the first offense.
Is it true that, from beginning to end, it is she who is trapped, while he … is free?
A chill ran through her body and the pain in her belly got worse. Putting the ring down, she covered her belly and hurried toward the bathroom.
Sitting on the toilet, she reached up and caressed the diamond ring on her hand. It was a pair of … But if she was the only one wearing it, would it still mean anything?
One night.
Unsleeping.
The next day, Sammy Jones walked into the office staring into the eyes of a black panda.
Only when I went in, I heard Le Mei’s client crying, “Lawyer Chen, you must help me win this case! I don’t have to ask for his property, but I have paid for so many years of youth, I have to give him a lesson, don’t you think so?”
“Yes, yes, Mrs. Wang, elaborate.”
Le Mei responded.
It appears that this is another marital civil case.
Sammy Jones sat down breathlessly in front of his desk, and heard Mrs. Wang continue to cry, “He used to talk about how much he loved me, but what happened? Behind my back, she’s been messing around with a mistress outside! I said how to take down the wedding ring as soon as he went out on a business trip. He’s simply out there cheating on little girls, he’s a big old man, and he still has the nerve to lie that he’s never been married!”
Mrs. Wang was crying, and Le Mei only had to hand her tissues.
This way …
Sammy Jones’ movements suddenly froze, and all of a sudden, he couldn’t do anything but stare blankly at Mrs. Wang’s weeping red, tearful eyes.
“And ah … always don’t come back for days and nights for no reason. A call over to say is busy! Busy what ah? The work is busy, this family can not not want it?” Mrs. Wang wiped her tear-stained face, “Girl, I don’t think you’re too old to get married. If you’re going to get married, you really need to take a good look at him! You can’t believe a word this man says, it’s all a lie! Coax you when, what oaths dare to send, cheating when out than anyone else’s peace of mind.”
Sammy Jones listened, only to feel the small of his back tense up even more and his face go pale and bloodless.
It looked like he had lost a lot of blood and was going to pass out at any moment.
“Sammy Jones, are you okay?” Le Mei asked, hastily interrupting her conversation with the person in question when she saw that her face didn’t look right.
“… I’m fine.” Sammy Jones waved his hand weakly, holding it hard over the small of his back.
“Is it your period? Do you want to go to the hospital? I see you’re in a lot of pain every time you come back.”
“No…” Sammy Jones waved his hand, “It’s just a minor problem, I can deal with it. You go on about your business …”
All day long, Sammy Jones sat in the cubicle, thanking all the visiting customers. Even though he was hugging a hot cup of tea, he still felt his hands and feet were cold, without a trace of warmth.
If …
At this moment, even if I can hear Joey Xu’s voice, probably this pain will be eased a lot.
But …
Her cell phone sat on the table and hadn’t rung all day. It was exactly the same as yesterday …
For the past few days, even the phone calls, were all about her initiating the calls to him.
That proud Sammy Jones, seems to have suddenly disappeared in the past few days, and all that hangs in his mind is the man who didn’t think of him …
Joey Xu …
Should she trust him again?
“Sammy Jones, off duty!” When it was time to leave work, LeMay tapped her on the shoulder. She jerked back, her eyes drawing back from the cell phone that never rang.
Le Mei gave her a suspicious look, “It can’t be that you’re still not feeling well, right? I see you’ve been restless all day today.”
“I’m fine.” Sammy Jones smiled and shook his head, his face bitter.
Gathered up his things, stood up, and was about to go out, when his cell phone, however, rang abruptly at this moment.
Glancing at the name flashing on her cell phone, she was slightly stunned. Surprisingly, it was Luo Mingfan. Ever since the last time she moved and choked with Joey Xu, he hadn’t called her again. Luo Mingfan was actually a very smart person, she believed that the interaction between herself and Joey Xu that day, even if she didn’t explicitly say so, Luo Mingfan saw it clearly.
Taking the cell phone and pressing it to his ear, Luo Mingfan’s voice rang out on the other end.
“Sammy Jones, it’s me.”
“Uh, is something wrong?” Sammy Jones gathered her things as she headed out the door. Le Mei was waiting for her at the door. The two had made plans to try that new spicy pot next door. They didn’t even need to call tonight to know that Joey Xu would never go back. It would be better to arrive home later when facing an empty house alone.
“You don’t sound like you’re doing well. Not feeling well?” Luo Mingfan’s words had worry in them.
A simple greeting for a moment made Sammy Jones feel indescribably uncomfortable in his heart. Once a person is uncomfortable, even his or her mind will become weak. She wished it was Joey Xu who came to greet her, but where is Joey Xu now?
“I’ll be fine, I’ve just had a busy day today and I probably don’t sound refreshed.” Sammy Jones managed to squeeze out the slightest smile over here and walked over towards Le Mei. LeMay took her by the arm and the two headed for the elevator.
“Hmm.” Luo Mingfan paused for a moment, as if he had something to say, but, again, he wanted to speak.
Sammy Jones could hear it, “Got something to say?”
“Wanted to ask you a personal question.”
Personal question?
Sammy Jones had it in his mind. “You asked.”
“Are you and Joey Xu … already together?”
“…” Sammy Jones had a moment of silence, dropping her eyes to look at the ring on her hand. So wobbly, and yet, it made her eyes feel tight.
But that’s what it’s all about, isn’t it?
They even made a promise of marriage.
“If you don’t want to talk about it then forget it, just pretend I didn’t ask.” Luo Mingfan thought her silence was reluctant.
“No, actually it’s nothing I can’t talk about.” Sammy Jones replied, “I’m with Joey Xu, I wanted to tell you about it long ago and have been putting it off again.”
“Oh.” Luo Mingfan was silent for a split second and added, “Do you understand him? Sammy Jones, Joey Xu’s background is complicated, this is something you know without me saying it. The key is … how well he handles his love life, are you clear?”
His words caused Sammy Jones to be slightly startled.
What kind of person was Luo Mingfan? He was by no means a talkative person. Therefore, there was naturally a reason for being able to ask this.
Sammy Jones subconsciously gripped his cell phone tightly, “Ming Fan, is it possible that you know something?”
“I’m not trying to stir up your relationship.”
“I know, I know you best as a person.”
Luo Mingfan sighed, “The day before yesterday when I passed by the Lingxuan Mansion, I did see Joey Xu’s car parked right there. Later, it was realized that he was waiting for someone-a woman.”
Lingxuan Mansion?
Sammy Jones’ heart suddenly throbbed at the address. She knew where it was, where Jo Langland worked.
So …
He said he was busy, too busy to have dinner with her, too busy to come home.
But … can find time to wait for Zhao Lanlan to get off work …
“Sammy Jones, are you listening to me?” Lormingfan asked again when he didn’t hear a sound.
The elevator arrived and Sammy Jones walked out on LeMay’s arm, which managed to squeeze out a small smile, “I’m listening, I just had a bad signal in the elevator and it’s a little blurry. I think it’s probably his client he’s waiting for!”
She didn’t know why she was defending him. Instead of defending him in front of Luo Mingfan, these words were used to comfort herself.
But is it comforting?
If it is comforting, what is the circle of enormity that floods the heart at this moment?
“Are they clients? I see that they seem to be acting very intimate with each other. And … “Luo Mingfan paused for a moment, “I’m in the Ice and Fire Building on the south side of the city, and it just so happens, they’re there too.”
“They?” Sammy Jones thought he’d misheard.
“Uh-huh. He’s with the woman who was waiting at the Ridge Hen House last time. Sammy Jones, you want to come over?”
“No, since he’s busy, I won’t bother.” Sammy Jones refused almost without thinking. Luo Mingfan naturally didn’t force himself when he heard her say that, and the two of them hung up the phone without saying anything more.
“Luo Mingfan’s call, huh? What’s wrong, you look so bad after answering the phone.” Le Mei gave her a worried look.
She climbed tightly onto Le Mei’s arm with one hand. She didn’t know why when Luo Mingfan said those words to her, she actually instinctively wanted to hide. Yes, wasn’t her own unwillingness to appear in the Ice and Fire Building at the moment an attempt to hide?
She’s afraid.
Fear that what she was about to face would shatter the only bit of trust left in her heart.
But …
This cringing Sammy Jones, is that still her?
Where has the once spunky, dry Sammy Jones gone?
“Sammy Jones, Sammy Jones!” waved Le Mei’s hand in front of her several times before she snapped back to her senses and her vision came into focus, “I mean, you, you didn’t have a period and lose too much blood and hurt your nerves, did you? You’ve been out of it all day. I’m asking you, do you want to eat spicy or tangy pot roast in a while.”
“Le Mei, I can’t accompany you to the hot pot.” Hiding, she couldn’t do it after all.
Whatever she was about to face would be the case, she had to at least keep her eyes open.
“What’s wrong?”
“I’ve got some things to do, so I’ll go first.” Sammy Jones said goodbye to Le Mei, “Tomorrow! I’ll buy you dinner tomorrow.”
“Windy, I don’t know what you’re doing.” Le Mei was speechless.
She’s gone and she’s left here all alone? What’s the point of eating? It’s easier to go back and fry your own rice.
Sammy Jones called Lominfan as he hopped into a cab. Lominfan said they hadn’t left yet and were sitting and talking in the back garden of the Ice and Fire building.
Sammy Jones, not wanting to hear any more, cut the call and headed for the Ice and Fire building.
When he arrived at the Ice Fire Building, Luo Mingfan was sitting in a private room.
He ordered a few of Sammy Jones’ favorites, but where was Sammy Jones in the mood for food at this moment?
“Are they still there?”
She asked.
I don’t know what it was that made her nervous at the moment. She actually had the illusion that she had come to catch an adulterer.
