Chapter 300 Sadness

Book:The Lying Wife Published:2024-5-28

Hearing her husband’s strange words, Ding Jie asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Take a look yourself.”
Ding Jie took the binoculars from her husband.
Ding Jie was shocked when she saw that the woman was actually trying to climb up the window. The woman lived on the sixth floor, so if she jumped, she would possibly fall to her death. Even if she didn’t die, she would definitely suffer a serious disability.
When she saw that the woman’s foot was already on the window, she urged her husband, “Hubby! Go over!”
“Forget it,” Li Ze said, “Call the police.”
“It will be late,” Ding Jie said, “as long as you knock on the door, this woman won’t jump because she would have to open the door after getting dressed. Find a way to be clear about what happened, and enlighten her by the way. Even though I would mind if you’re alone with a strange woman, but her situation was serious. Husband, be quick. If she jumps, I will feel like we are accomplices.”
Li Ze had no choice but to wear clothes.
Then he quickly walked out after he dressed up.
The woman was already sitting on the window, a bottle of beer in her hand.
Ding Jie was terribly anxious at the situation.
Li Ze, who was still gasping for breath, knocked on the door after he arrived at her home as fast as possible.
He knocked again since no one responded.
Just as Li Ze was about to call his wife to ask whether the woman had jumped off, a voice suddenly sounded from inside.
“Who are you?”
It was clear that the woman was peering at him through the peephole.
Smiling at her, Li Ze said, “Hello, I live in the building across from you. I want to ask for something.”
“What thing?”
“Is it convenient?”
“No,” the woman said coldly, “I’m alone in the house. My husband isn’t here.”
“Alright,” Li Ze said after a hesitation, “Actually, I just saw you sitting on the window. I was afraid you would jump off, so I came over to take a look. I don’t know whether you want to enjoy the wind or you are trying to commit suicide. Whatever, it’s very dangerous to sit in a window. Besides lady, you drank a lot.”
“Are you too idle?” The woman’s voice came through the security door, “It’s my own business, it doesn’t have anything to do with you. If you have to ask for reasons from everyone sitting by the window, wouldn’t you have no time for yourself? Take care of yourself, please.”
“Has your husband cheated?”
The woman remained silent at his question.
Seeing that the woman didn’t answer him, Li Ze knew that he was right, “I don’t know why he cheated, but cheating is really disgusting. Whatever, you don’t have to get drunk or commit suicide because of such a cheating husband. He’s not worthy of you. Two months ago I saw a news about a female presenter who jumped off in her pregnancy period because her husband had cheated her. Do you know where she committed suicide? The new house they’d just bought and was still being furnished. The woman is really stupid. Had she succeeded in stopping the adultery? After she dies, all she had would be taken away by the mistress. Anyway, it’s useless.”
“My husband cheated me with my sister!” The woman shouted, “And my parents are supporting them! My husband told me to divorce him on Monday. Holy shit! ”
Hearing the woman’s rough voice, Li Ze asked, “Why are your parents standing beside them?”
“Money, of course,” the woman smiled, “My husband didn’t have any money when we got married. But he had accumulated a lot of it in the past few years by real estate speculation. Although he was in charge of the money, I knew he’d earned at least ten million. My sister used to be a salesgirl, so they usually discuss a lot and have a lot in common. When my husband opened his own company last year, my sister came over to be his woman assistant. I didn’t agree then, but my husband said it would be better to let my sister do it, for which at the very least the property would not be known. Because he insisted on it, I agreed, even though I felt unpleasant about it. Last week, my sister suddenly informed me to get divorced with my husband because she was already pregnant with his baby.”
“So your parents are backing your husband because he was rich?”
“Both of them are gamblers, so they obviously don’t wish to drive him away. In their opinion, whether my husband married me or my sister, as long as he was their son-in-law, he would back them when they gamble. It sounds weird, but it’s just like that in my family, don’t you feel vexed?”
“The world is really full of freaks.”
“That’s right,”
The door suddenly opened as he was about to continue.
Li Ze was worried that the other party was naked, but actually, she was wearing pajamas with the bra inside.
It seems she was dressing when he knocked.
Looking at the average looking woman with a pretty figure, Li Ze asked, “How much have you drunk?”
“Just five bottles,” the woman said as she stepped aside. “Take a seat. It’s hard for me to talk about my situation with someone.”
“No,” Li Ze said, “It’s okay if I stand outside.”
The woman suddenly laughed out exaggeratedly.
Seeing that, Li Ze asked, “What’s the problem?”
“You are really funny,” the woman said, “Under normal circumstances, a man should be very happy when he is invited by a strange woman. On the contrast, you refused me. Are you afraid that I’ll blackmail you?”
“No,” Li Ze explained, “I just want to go home and stay with my wife.”
“It seems you are very fond of each other.”
“Just so-so.”
“It’s strange,” the woman looked at Li Ze, “I feel that you look familiar.”
“Have you seen me?”
