Chapter 585
A cold, stern voice echoed through the office.
Jiang Han’er’s face turned pale, panicked and frightened.
Chen Dong’s words were like a big invisible hand that pressed her viciously into the pitch-black abyss.
The sky spun and the earth spun.
There was a blackness in front of her eyes.
She had indeed been in control of the situation.
The initial shock when she saw the photos was precisely because when she sent someone to give the photos to Gu Qingying, the person she sent to give her feedback on Gu Qingying’s reaction, which made her certain that Gu Qingying would hold back and not expose the photos to Chen Dong.
It only took time for the rift between Chen Dong and Gu Qingying to slowly widen, straight to a complete break.
From the beginning to the end, Jiang Han’er had never panicked in the slightest.
Because she always had people secretly monitoring Chen Dong and Gu Qingying’s reactions, the increasingly violent reactions of the two of them also allowed her to always be prepared and confident of winning.
Since she was a child, she had believed that if she liked something, she should pursue it, and if she pursued it, she would get it.
Such confidence, even when the matter became known to the three Jiang Liuxue masters, she had never lost it.
But now, her self-confidence, crumbled to nothing.
Her self-proclaimed dueling calculations, however, had long since been reconciled between Chen Dong and Gu Qingying.
The two couples, long ago, had opened up their chests and explained themselves clearly.
All because Gu Qingying had woken up from a nightmare, hugging Chen Dong and crying in pain!
At this moment, Jiang Han’er was completely dumbfounded.
Her delicate body was vaguely trembling and her face was pale to the extreme.
Her heart was even more like a five-flavored bottle that had been tipped over, with a mixture of flavors.
Was this …… what true love was?
“Heh!”
Suddenly, Jiang Han’er pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled ruefully, “I really didn’t expect that my careful planning would only lose to a painful cry from your wife, a few tears.”
Snap!
Jiang Han’er suddenly raised her hand and slapped herself.
With tears in her beautiful eyes, red and swollen handprints quickly surfaced on her stunning face.
In response, Chen Dong remained indifferent.
With tears in her eyes, Jiang Han’er laughed, and the more she laughed, the happier she became, and the louder she laughed.
“I seem to have really offended this feeling of yours, I am the one who sees feelings too clearly.”
“You’ve never had feelings, of course you don’t understand.”
Chen Dong unceremoniously despised.
He and Gu Qingying’s feelings, that had come out of one grinding
The same scene.
Lin Xue’er, Chen Yufei, and even Ye Linglong who was now far away across the ocean, were such things still rare?
The only thing that made Chen Dong feel guilty was that he had become suspicious of Gu Qingying.
Time and time again, Gu Qingying had chosen to trust him, while for Gu Qingying’s first time, he had almost lost his faith!
It was only when Gu Qingying woke up that night in a nightmare and hugged him and cried bitterly that he realised just how wrong he had been.
Because he was doubting a woman who, all along, had been afraid that he would abandon his wife and son!
“Yeah …… I don’t ever have feelings.”
Jiang Han’er laughed at herself, looking despondent and wretched: “But I want to have one, and you won’t agree!”
Chen Dong was as cold as frost and his gaze was like a torch.
All the anger finally converged into one word.
“Get lost!”
A merciless and angry rebuke echoed through the office.
“Chen Dong, I am a member of Jiang’s family, don’t you think that you are being too rude and offensive to me like this?” Jiang Han’er’s delicate body shook as she looked at Chen Dong with tears in her eyes.
Chen Dong suddenly felt a little amused.
Was the Jiang family so great?
The Jiang family could use despicable and underhanded means to forcibly break up people’s marriages at will?
The smile was curbed.
Chen Dong said in a cold voice, “If people don’t offend me, I won’t offend them, but if they offend me, I don’t care if you are a member of Jiang’s family?”
His words were overbearing, almost brutal.
Even Jiang Han’er felt a strong sense of frustration.
For as long as she could remember, she had always been proud of her status as a member of the Jiang family, because it made her a towering guest wherever she went.
Even for a behemoth like the Chen family, she was able to sit in the formal parlour that rarely opened.
But now, for the first time, she felt frustrated.
And it was only against one person.
Jiang Han’er stumbled a little on her feet as she headed towards the door.
When the door was opened and she was about to step out, she said breathlessly, “I’m sorry.”
“You are indeed sorry.” Chen Dong said.
The tears that were in Jiang Han’er’s eyes could not be held back at last and flowed down the corners of her eyes.
Click!
The office door closed.
Chen Dong sat loftily on his wheelchair, his expression cold to the core, with faint anger churning in his eyes.
A few seconds pa*sed.
The office door was pushed open.
Elder Long walked in with an odd expression.
“Come early?” Chen Dong asked.
Elder Long nodded her head, she had heard the conversation between Chen Dong and Jiang Han’er in the office just now.
Appalled and shocked, Elder Long also had some odd thoughts.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, “Isn’t such an attitude from Young Master too much, she is at least from the Jiang family.”
“The Jiang family? Am I going too far?”
Chen Dong raised his eyebrows, his harsh gaze, causing Long Lao to be stunned, followed by him slowly saying, “If it wasn’t for the timely reveal of her heart, do you think it would have been me who went too far, or her? She’s just a whim, while I’m married for life!”
“The Jiang family ……” Long Lao was about to say.
In a flash.
Chen Dong’s aura changed drastically, as if he was plucking a mountain from the flat earth, and he shot straight up to the sky.
It was majestic, out of sight, and overbearing.
“One mouthful of the Jiang family, would a king and a marquis have more courage than a man? When autumn comes on the eighth day of September, my flowers will bloom and kill all the flowers! The Jiang family …… is nothing but a district Jiang family.”
Boom!
Long Lao’s body shook and his expression instantly drifted off.
Chen Dong’s words were like rolling thunder, which remained in his ears for a long time.
At this moment, facing Chen Dong.
Rao Long Lao even had the feeling of facing a lofty mountain, a vast sea of smoke.
A domineering and sidelining aura came over him, like a large invisible hand, strangling his throat and suffocating him.
“Go home!”
Until, Chen Dong coldly spat out two words.
Elder Long finally snapped out of his dazed and frightened state.
He gave Chen Dong a profound look.
Young Master’s Growth …… The first person Old Slave had ever seen in his life!
Pushing Chen Dong, he walked downstairs to the Dingtai Company.
A gust of autumnal coolness came with the wind.
A few sycamore trees not far away, the leaves were already a little yellow.
The cool breeze was like a knife, cutting the roots of the leaves and making the yellowing paulownia leaves fall down in a flutter.
Long Lao was lost in a daze, waiting until the autumn came September 8 ……
“September eight” …… is getting closer and closer!
The eyes deepened and gradually moved to Chen Dong who was sitting on a wheelchair.
Can the young master really leap to become a king and kill all the hundred flowers?
“Phew ……”
Exhaling a heavy breath of turbid air from his chest, Elder Long led Chen Dong back to the Tianmen Mountain Villa.
When Chen Dong returned to the villa.
Gu Qingying was sitting in the garden, wearing a loose maternity dress, doing flower arrangements in a quiet and breezy manner.
Fan Lu was beside her, carefully trimming each flower branch and leaf and handing it to Gu Qingying.
Occasionally, if Gu Qingying was not satisfied, Gu Qingying would also pick up the scissors and trim them again.
Seeing Chen Dong.
Gu Qingying smiled sweetly, “Honey, look at the flower arrangement I made, does it look good?”
“Good looking.” Chen Dong’s remaining anger had not yet subsided, but when faced with Gu Qingying, he still squeezed out a smile.
The forced smile could not be hidden from Gu Qingying.
Gu Qingying’s eyebrows knitted as she walked up to Chen Dong with her stomach in her arms, “What’s wrong, you look so sad.”
Chapter 586
A gentle voice.
A warm feeling flowed through Chen Dong’s heart.
The remaining anger that had not subsided also seemed to be soothed with it.
Elder Long called Fan Lu away in due course.
When only Chen Dong and Gu Qingying were left in the garden.
Only then did Chen Dong say, “That woman came to see me just now when she was almost off duty.”
Gu Qingying’s gaze flickered for a moment, her smile somewhat forced.
She slowly got up and walked towards the garden table, saying carelessly, “It’s alright, my husband is so good, it’s normal to look for you.”
“Hey, why don’t you hear me out?”
Chen Dong pushed his wheelchair and followed Gu Qingying to the table with a teasing smile, “Don’t you want to know what’s going on?”
Gu Qingying responded casually as she inserted flowers, “It’s just a photo shoot, a drink and a little less clothing.”
As if the jealousy had been tipped over, sourness surged.
Chen Dong hurriedly raised his right hand and swore, “I didn’t want to do that.”
“Yeah, it’s not like the word “F**k” is used to describe these, talents are.” Gu Qing Ying twisted her head and looked askance at Chen Dong, her beautiful eyes narrowed with a creepy coldness.
The next second.
Gu Qingying raised the scissors and waved them in front of Chen Dong’s eyes.
Then, she slammed downwards.
In a flash of lightning, Chen Dong instinctively clamped his legs together.
Luckily, Gu Qingying’s scissors stopped in time and provocatively said, “If you dare to do it, I’ll click you!”
“Hiss!”
Chen Dong secretly sucked in a breath of cold air.
Inexplicably, he suddenly felt a cold wind blowing across his crotch.
He smiled sarcastically, “I scolded her away.”
“Oh.” Gu Qingying turned back and continued to insert flowers, carelessly, repeatedly unconcerned.
Chen Dong glanced at the sharp scissors in Gu Qingying’s hand and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a “thud”.
He took another look at Gu Qingying’s serene and bland face.
He said with some confusion, “Hey hey, you didn’t look like this the other night when you woke up scared by a nightmare and hugged me and cried, why did you lift your trousers and flip out?”
“Oops!”
Gu Qingying’s delicate body trembled, and her pretty face instantly turned scarlet.
She threw the scissors onto the table in shame, turned around and pinched Chen Dong’s cheek with both hands, angrily saying, “In front of the baby, can you not drive? At least act like a father, right?”
Chen Dong’s cheek was slightly painful, and it was obvious that Gu Qingying had not used any force.
He shifted his gaze down and looked at Gu Qingying’s bulging stomach, raising his hand to gently stroke it, “The baby shouldn’t be able to hear it, right?”
“Whether it can hear or not, you are not allowed to drive.”
Chen Dong was aggrieved, “What’s wrong with me and my wife driving?”
“You ……”
Gu Qingying was mortified and grunted indignantly.
Releasing Chen Dong, she stopped paying attention and turned around to continue trimming the flower arrangement.
Chen Dong didn’t leave either, smiling and flattering beside him, helping Gu Qingying select flower branches and handing them to Gu Qingying for her to trim.
This scene was tranquil and happy.
Just as Chen Dong was picking out the flower branches, Gu Qingying, who was concentrating on flower arrangement, suddenly asked.
“Husband, did you also suspect me?”
Chen Dong’s expression was frozen, and the movement of holding the flower branch, could not help but pause in mid-air.
“No, no.” Chen Dong said with a smile.
“I felt it, just before I woke up from a nightmare hugging you and crying, after I was pulled by that person Jiang Han’er called downstairs in the hospital.”
Gu Qingying did not look at Chen Dong, staring intently at the vase and the flower branch, only her gaze was flickering violently, “A woman’s sixth sense, it’s very spiritual.”
D*mn sixth sense!
Chen Dong instantly grumbled.
However, he immediately put down the flower branch in his hand, held Gu Qingying’s hand, and said from the bottom of his heart, “I’m sorry.”
As soon as the words left his mouth.
Gu Qingying’s eyes clearly dimmed for a few moments.
After a few seconds of silence.
Gu Qingying squeezed out a smile and said, “It’s alright ah, but it won’t be the next time!”
“Good!”
Gu Qingying smiled and snuggled into Chen Dong’s arms, softly saying, “You must remember, you are the sky for me and the baby, the baby and I are your harbour, even if the whole world betrays you, I will take the baby with me, steadfastly support you behind me and wait for you to come home.”
Chen Dong froze, his eyes fluttering.
Gu Qingying’s gentle words were like a heavy hammer that ruthlessly smashed into the soft spot of his heart.
At this moment, his heart was overwhelmed.
His chest was even more congested.
Only after having it, did he know the pain of losing it.
Having cherished it, one knows the despair of being abandoned.
Having experienced it, one realises how hard it all is to come by.
When you have experienced a lot, you can have it again and be cherished again, then you will know what is valuable.
The so-called happiness …… is just like that, right?
“What’s wrong?”
Gu Qingying burst out of Chen Dong’s arms and looked at Chen Dong who was dazed and lost in thought.
Chen Dong took a deep breath, glanced his head aside, and said with a smile, “No, it’s nothing.”
However, Gu Qingying did not notice that as Chen Dong glanced his head aside, those eyes, which were as deep as black holes, were rippling.
Midnight.
After Chen Dong had soothed Gu Qingying into sleep, he was slow to fall asleep.
He sat in his wheelchair and went to the rooftop, carrying a dozen beers along with him.
It had been a long time since he had relaxed on the rooftop.
Only, when he entered the rooftop, he was shocked to find that Old Man Long was lying on a recliner, beer in hand, dazed and lost in thought.
“Elder Long, you couldn’t sleep either?”
Chen Dong smiled and pushed his wheelchair over.
“Young master?!”
Long Lao was surprised for a moment and hurriedly got up, helping Chen Dong to sit down on the recliner and lie down.
He then settled onto the swing chair at the side and smiled blandly, “Didn’t the young master not sleep either?”
“I couldn’t sleep, I always feel like my mind has been a bit muddled since that incident in which Lin Lingdong was instructed by Chen Tianyang to a*sa*sinate him.”
Chen Dong frowned, puzzled.
“Old slave is also pondering over this matter.”
Elder Long looked at Chen Dong and said with deep eyes, “Old slave was thinking about what the note that the mysterious man left for young master really meant.”
“What does it mean?”
Chen Dong rubbed his nose and snorted, “He is the most suspected in the whole conspiracy, that note I don’t care about now, it is just a deliberate attempt to split me and Little Shadow, as for the purpose, I don’t know.”
When he returned to Tianmen Mountain Villa from Dingtai Company in the afternoon, Chen Dong told Elder Long about the ragged note.
Elder Long rubbed his nose and said, “Indeed, that mysterious person is now the most suspicious, but old slave always feels fishy.”
Saying that, Elder Long tilted his head and took a sip of beer.
Then he raised his right index finger, “First, that mysterious man helped the young master recruit Lin Lingdong, and in the mountains, saved the young master and Lin Lingdong’s lives before finally killing the Jiang family.”
“In this matter, to say that the mysterious man deliberately led the trouble to the east, allowing the Jiang family to send down a heavenly punishment on the young master, is really biased and truly suspicious.”
Chen Dong did not refute.
What had happened in the deep mountain forest was still fresh in his mind.
Reasoning.
Although Chen Dong had pride in his heart.
But the situation at that time, since that mysterious man was able to penetrate a stone into the tree trunk and frighten away that Jiang family member who had been expelled from the Jiang family, was also proof enough that he was able to manage to penetrate a stone into Chen Dong’s head in the circumstances at that time.
If he could have killed him instead of killing him, he would have planted the evidence.
Rubbing his nose, Chen Dong calmly asked, “What about the second?”
