Chapter 127

There was no need to wait any longer, because waiting meaninglessly was not Bai Weijin’s style. Sitting for a long time made her legs go numb. Bai Weijin stood up and lost her balance. Then she fell on the white carpet. It hurt a bit, but she was scarily indifferent. She forced a smile and tried to keep her feet while leaning against the tea table.

Bai Weijin never showed others her wretched look. In everyone’s eyes, Bai Weijin was always pride and elegant, and never yelled or cried out of control. She was perfect and had no flaws.

Looking at the gaunt and pale face in the mirror, Bai Weijin barely recognized herself. The red and swollen eyes revealed the fact that she cried bitterly, and the dark circles under her eyes made her look bad. She looked at herself in the mirror, and suddenly felt painful.

Bai Weijin raised her head and tried to smile to herself. Even though Bai Weijin was so reluctant to smile, she still turned up the corners of her mouth. Tears flowed to her mouth uncontrollably, which tasted bitter.

Sitting in front of the desk in the office, Bai Weijin switched off from time to time. Bai Weijin couldn’t concentrate on handling things, since her mind was full of Gu Yeze. But Gu Yeze shouldn’t be blamed, because he had never expressed his love for Bai Weijin. Bai Weijin sneered at the thought of this, ‘I could only blame myself for being stupid. I deserve all this, for I took our contractual marriage too seriously.’

The knock on the door interrupted Bai Weijin’s thoughts and she came to her senses, “Come in.”

The door was politely pushed open, and a pair of CL’s red-soled high heels slowly stepped in. The woman had slim legs and waist and her beauty was beyond description. Even Bai Weijin as a woman had to admit that this woman was a stunner. The white veil highlighted this woman’s good figure. Her gentle and attractive face made people doubt whether this woman in front of Bai Weijin was a human being or a fairy.

But the words of such a beautiful woman were quite annoying. The woman closed the door, walked towards Bai Weijin, and finally stood in front of Bai Weijin with a triumphant smile.

“Yeze, he is still mine.”

Those words blew Bai Weijin’s mind. It took her a long while to calm down. Bai Weijin looked up and smiled indifferently, “Did Miss Tan come to me with something to say?”

Tan Xin raised her nice eyebrows and smiled, “With your cleverness, can’t you tell what I mean?”

‘Ha! You finally stop disguising.’ Bai Weijin smiled and looked into Tan Xin’s beautiful bright eyes: “Oh?”

Tan Xin was somewhat impatient and said with insufferable insolence, which showed a stark contrast with her gentle image. But she still looked beautiful and charming, and her every movement showed an imposing manner.

“You know, Yeze and I had an engagement long ago.” With a flushing face, Tan Xin tilted her head and looked at Bai Weijin, “Why did Yeze choose you later? It was just because we had a dispute. I’m the one that he loves most. Do you really think that Yeze would love you? Well, in terms of family background, educational background and talent, how can you compare with me?”

Bai Weijin clearly saw taunt and disdain from Tan Xin’s eyes, and felt another sharp pain in her heart. More sadly, what Tan Xin said was true and Bai Weijin was unable to refute it.

Tan Xin saw that Bai Weijin was speechless and guessed Bai Weijin was intimidated. So Tan Xin laughed more recklessly, “Look at Grandma Gu’s attitude and you may have known how much Yeze and I have gone through together. I just had a quarrel with him and then he was so angry with me. No one has expected that. Well, Yeze is a little too jealous.”

Bai Weijin looked up in surprise. Tan Xin saw that Bai Weijin didn’t understand and giggled, “Ha, ha, ha, didn’t Yeze tell you why he broke up with me?”

‘Indeed not.’ Bai Weijin thought. If Tan Xin hadn’t said it today, Bai Weijin wouldn’t know that Tan Xin was actually Yeze’s beloved ex. Bai Weijin’s expression was unchanged and she sneered, “I thought he had no ex, since Gu Yeze never mentioned that he had one. Now there is a person who claims to be his ex. God knows whether it is true or not!”

Bai Weijin’s implication was nothing more than that Tan Xin pretended to be Gu Yeze’s ex, but Bai Weijin actually knew the truth. Yesterday’s photos were enough to make Bai Weijin suspect, and today Tan Xin came to provoke her. It was hard for Bai Weijin to disbelieve what Tan Xin said.

Tan Xin was surprised since Bai Weijin’s reaction wasn’t as expected. However, she restored her dignified appearance after a short daze.

“It’s true that Gu Yeze loves me. He has already regretted having married you. He doesn’t file for a divorce just out of sympathy. You, as a woman, should be self-respecting. You might as well leave as soon as possible. It is good for both you and me. Isn’t it?”

“Is it?” Bai Weijin burst out laughing as if she heard some joke. “A woman, who came from nowhere, came to me and told me that she was my husband’s ex, and asked me to divorce my husband. Is this good for me?” Bai Weijin’s eyes were full of fierceness, and she stared at Tan Xin. “I tell you, this is not good for me. This is wishful thinking! I advise you to go to the psychiatric department of the city hospital. Stop daydreaming and biting people all day long!”

Tan Xin, who had never been humiliated like this, was so angry that she didn’t know what to say. Tan Xin snorted and glared awkwardly at Bai Weijin who was still that calm, “I’m just here to remind you that Gu Yeze will be my husband sooner or later! You should leave him as soon as possible!”

Bai Weijin did not bother to talk nonsense with Tan Xin and bowed her head to deal with the things that remained unfinished because she could not concentrate just now. Tan Xin saw that Bai Weijin was indifferent and then kept nagging about her past romances with Gu Yeze, be it true or not. Gu Yeze didn’t seem like the romantic type, but Tan Xin’s narration was so jaunty and vivid that Bai Weijin had to believe it.

Gu Yeze had never treated Bai Weijin like this before.

The helplessness, despair and suspicion of Gu Yeze last night came over Bai Weijin again. Her hand clenched into a fist in a corner that Tan Xin couldn’t see. Bai Weijin didn’t even notice that her fingers had pierced her palm. Bai Weijin was still expressionless. Tan Xin rambled for quite a long time, and Bai Weijin suddenly coughed and motioned for Tan Xin to stop. Tan Xin subconsciously shut up and stopped talking. They glanced at each other and Tan Xin inexplicably felt a little panicked. There was no emotion in the eyes of the woman in front of Tan Xin. Bai Weijin’s gaze at Tan Xin showed no hatred but scary indifference, as if she was looking at the dead.

“I would like to declare once again that I am Gu Yeze’s legal wife and I will not leave him unless Gu Yeze files for a divorce.” Bai Weijin sighed, “If you are very confident, you can ask Gu Yeze to divorce me. If he does so, I will definitely leave and never come back.”

Tan Xin was unwilling to give up and wanted to say something. However, Bai Weijin knocked on the table and signaled the security guards to come in, “Send her out, I still have things to deal with.”
