Lin Yi only had one option: she needed make Li Tian come back.
Even though she had looked down on him, she couldn't bear the consequences of provoking him.
'Li family' were two words that managed to send chills down her spine.
Although Li Tian's status in the family wasn't high, nobody could deny that he was the Li family's heir. If Li family were to find out about this, they would have made a big deal out of it, and things would reach a point of no return.
Li Tian was standing somewhere near the villa, where he could see everything that occured within the house. When he saw Lin Yi emerging from the villa, a smug expression emerged on his face.
However, when he saw Lin Yi's fury as she rushed over to him, Li Tian felt slightly apprehensive.
"Li Tian, what do you think you're doing? Do you think I'm easy to bully? Do you think just because you're apart of the Li family, you could manipulate and control me?"
Lin Yi stood in front of Li Tian and immediately shouted at him. Her eyes carried tears as she thought about how much she had suffered because of him.
Who was he to embarrass me, and need me to get him back after he had left voluntarily?
Who did he think he was?
"What do you mean? What's the whole situation with that guy? Do you think you could take advantage of me? You were already so conscienceless even though I was at home... If I wasn't home, you probably would have cheated!"
Li Tian was upset that Lin Yi lectured him as soon as she saw him.
He had already called her father, which meant that he was taking a step back. He just wanted Lin Yi to take one step back too, then he would've pretended like nothing had ever happened.
If he was really after revenge, he wouldn't have to do this. He just needed to leave, and if the Li family found out, then chaos would arrive at the Lin family's doorsteps.
Li Tian had cared about Lin Yi, but still maintained his ego. Was that so wrong?
He didn't expect Lin Yi to shout at him as soon as they met.
"I... I didn't do anything with Jia Jun, what nonsense!"
As Lin Yi heard Li Tian's words, she also began to fight back.
"Oh, I see... Did you even consider me as your husband? Lin Yi, I wanted to be fine with this, but now I realised that my thinking was wrong. I'd always thought that even though we didn't know each other before, we could still put in effort into improving our relationship after our marriage. These few days when you had been so cold to me, did I even complain once? Since things are already at this stage, let's not meet again!"
Li Tian turned around and left after finishing his sentence.
As for their relationship, Li Tian didn't have any hope left. Perhaps Lin Yi just didn't like him, and his existence was just irritating to her. Anyways, it wasn't like nobody else would want him.
As Lin Yi watched Li Tian leave without hesitation, she began to panic.
She had regretted her actions when she shouted at Li Tian. She didn't think of the consequences.
The news could reach Li family's ears tomorrow. If the news about the Li family's heir being chased out by his own wife was exposed, where would the Li family's reputation go?
Big families always cared about their reputation...
Lin Yi started to think that if the Li family had taken action, the entire Lin family would suffer a painful downfall.
She ran maniacally towards the direction in which Li Tian had left in.
She just wanted Li Tian to return. This time, she promised herself that she wouldn't throw a tantrum. Even if she had to kneel down to beg, she would still try her best to get him to come home.
However, she couldn't find a single trace of Li Tian. While she was in a trance, Li Tian had already long since left the villa.
...
"Mom... I'm sorry... I..."
Lin Yi softly spoke into the phone.
She didn't put the blame on Li Tian, and said that it was her fault that she had been too impulsive, causing Li Tian to leave angrily.
Upon hearing this, Lin Zheng almost destroyed his phone. He even wanted to scold Lin Yi, but as he took a glance at his wife who was beside him, he held back.
Even though he had a second wife, he still loved Lin Yi's mother.
"Sigh... I'll come up with an idea. It's already late, go to the villa tomorrow and talk to Xiao Yi and have her control her temper. She's a bit too proud, despite being nothing in the eyes of the Li family!"
Lin Zheng left the room after finishing his sentence. He couldn't sleep that night.
...
Li Tian walked to the streets. He wanted to find a place to relieve his stress, but suddenly his phone rang.
It was Lin Zheng. Li Tian didn't dare to reject his call.
"Xiao Tian, where are you?"
As soon as he picked up, Lin Zheng immediately asked.
"Not really anywhere, I'm just roaming the streets."
Since things were already at this stage with their marriage, he didn't consider Lin Zheng to be his father-in-law anymore, and thus, he answered nonchalantly.
However, Lin Zheng was already feeling satisfied. He knew how his own daughter had treated Li Tian, but Li Tian still didn't lose his temper or reject his call.
"Which street? Xiao Tian, I know what happened. It was Xiao Yi's fault. As her father, I'm apologizing on her behalf, what do you say?"
"Don't! You're an elder, why are you apologizing to me? Also, this wasn't entirely her fault, maybe our meeting was a mistake. Since our marriage was a mistake, ending it wouldn't be so bad after all."
Li Tian said sincerely.
"Xiao Tian, how could you think like that? Let me ask you, what do you think of Xiao Yi?"
"What do you mean?"
"Appearance and figure."
"She's perfect."
"That's right. I'm not boasting, but isn't it difficult to find a girl like Xiao Yi in this world?"
"You're right, but what does this have to do with me?"
Li Tian admitted that Lin Yi was a one-in-a-million kind of girl. She had a great face, figure, and not to mention, an alluring appearance.
However, he didn't have any feelings for her, and they both acted as though they had been enemies in their past lives.
"Why not? With a wife like this, you won't be able to find another one. No one else would be able to reach your standards except for Xiao Yi. You two have just got together, and just need more time to get used to each other since you didn't date before marrying. How about I bring you out to the city to have some fun tonight, and then send you home tomorrow? I promise you Xiao Yi won't be like that anymore."
"Umm... No need, it's already late, and I wouldn't want to disturb your rest."
Li Tian said, contradicting his thoughts. He only had $800 on him, and a night in a hotel room in the city would cost at least $300-$500. He still had to buy his colleagues breakfast in the morning tomorrow.
If he went with Lin Zheng, he wouldn't have to use his own money, right?
"It's still early, I usually go to bed during dawn. Let me know your location, I'm heading out now and I'll be there soon."
Facing Lin Zheng's 'aggresive' request, Li Tian agreed.
"I'm at..."
