Li Mingxun started the car and stepped on the gas to leave.
All the way, he knitted his brows tightly and didn't want to speak.
He didn't understand why Li Yuan and Luo Qianxun got along so well that they forced him to marry her.
"I can take a cab home on my own."
Luo Qianxun spoke up.
Since they had left the old house, Li Mingxun probably wouldn't put on a good face for her anymore, so she might as well take the initiative to get out of the car.
If it reached the point where he threw her out of the car, it would hurt her pride.
"Do you assume I would drop you home?"
Li Mingxun snorted coldly, parking his car by the side of the road.
Luo Qianxun managed a bitter smile, opened the car door and got out.
She turned around to wave goodbye to Li Mingxun, but he had already drove away, as if she was a monster.
"Li Mingxun, you're going to regret this one day."
Luo Qianxun couldn't hold back her sadness anymore, and tears began to slide down her cheeks.
Li Mingxun, her husband, had left her for another woman.
Jiang Xinjie was nothing more than a pretentious woman. Why couldn't Li Mingxun see through her?
What he thought was simple and kind was all fake. It was just a facade she put on.
Luo Qianxun knew that even if she told Li Mingxun about Jiang Xinjie's true nature, he would accuse her of slandering Jiang Xinjie; so, she might as well keep her mouth shut.
It was her foolishness that had led her to be deceived by Jiang Xinjie for so many years. How could Li Mingxun quickly see through the true face of Jiang Xinjie?
A small car stopped next to Luo Qianxun with a 'squeak'.
She instinctively turned her head and saw Bai Lang, quickly wiping away the tears on her face.
"Qianxun, where are you headed? I can give you a ride."
Bai Lang looked at Luo Qianxun with a heavy gaze. She shook her head to refuse, "Senior, thank you for your kindness, but I'll wait for a cab."
"At this time, you rarely find cabs coming here."
Bai Lang who saw Luo Qianxun stubbornly refusing to get in his car was frustrated, cursing, "Did that bastard Li Mingxun really just abandon you in the middle of nowhere? Doesn't he worry that something might happen to you?"
Bai Lang went to college with Luo Qianxun and had adored her from the moment he first saw her in the crowd at the freshman reception.
Unfortunately, he didn't get the chance to express his feelings, because Luo Qianxun married Li Mingxun right after graduation. This saddened him for a while before he recovered.
Only when he accidentally saw Li Mingxun and Jiang Xinjie together did he realize Luo Qianxun's marriage was not a happy one.
This made him feel he had another opportunity to get close to her, but she always evaded him.
He didn't understand. If the marriage was unhappy, why did Luo Qianxun insist on clinging to it?
"Senior, he just had an urgent matter and had to leave first."
Luo Qianxun defended Li Mingxun, unaware that Bai Lang had discovered the affair between Li Mingxun and Jiang Xinjie.
She pretended not to know Bai Lang's feelings for her.
"An urgent matter? So urgent that he had to..."
Bai Lang stopped halfway through, refraining from speaking the rest.
He wanted to save Luo Qianxun some face. If she knew about the existence of the mistress, wouldn't she feel hurt?
"Even if he had an urgent matter, he still had time to take you home."
Bai Lang's words made Luo Qianxun feel a bit embarrassed.
She sharply spotted a cab and quickly waved it down, "A cab is here, I have to go."
She opened the car door and got in, "Driver, let's go."
Seeing Luo Qianxun leaving in such a hurry, Bai Lang sighed, pushed the gas pedal and followed behind the cab.
He was willing to protect her in silence, always being there for her whenever she needed him.
