The real daughter's eyes turned red, and the big guys went crazy

Chapter 704 To untie the bell, one must tie it

Li Jingshen looked at the pink diamond, and Qiao Xi's figure unconsciously appeared in his mind. He suddenly had a headache and said perfunctorily, "As long as you like it."

Jiang Huiyuan felt a little disappointed. It was the same every time. No matter what he asked, he would just perfunctorily say "as long as you like it".

"Brother Jingshen, the wedding is for the two of us. It can't be that I just like everything. We both have to like it."

Jiang Huiyuan felt that this wedding was prepared for her alone and had nothing to do with him.

Jiang Nanchuan advised her that Li Jingshen might have a fear of marriage and asked her not to take it too seriously.

Jiang Huiyuan understood that he was not afraid of marriage. He had not forgotten Qiao Xi. He got drunk again last night and still called out Qiao Xi's name.

Li Jingshen leaned on the sofa. He didn't care much about the wedding arrangements and the materials needed. Jiang Huiyuan wanted to do it herself, after all, it was her own wedding, but he just wanted to leave it to the wedding company and didn't want to worry about it.

The closer it got to the wedding date, the more negative Li Jingshen became. It seemed as if marriage and the wedding were being pushed forward by someone, and he had to push harder, otherwise, he would stay where he was.

Jiang Huiyuan was very annoyed by him. She was sure that she had been very accommodating to him, and tolerated everything about him, even tolerated that he still had Qiao Xi in his heart.

"This pink diamond was given by Qiao Xi. You would prefer to wear it on her hand, right?"

Li Jingshen frowned, "Don't let your imagination run wild."

"Am I just imagining things? Brother Jingshen, I love you wholeheartedly, why are you being so perfunctory to me? If you don't want to marry me, you can still regret it now,"

Can I regret it now?

Li Jingshen looked bewildered. The invitations had been sent out and the wedding venue was already being arranged. This was not just a wedding for the two of them, but also a marriage between the Li and Jiang families, which concerned the reputation of the two families.

After a long while, he said, "Don't worry, since I married you, I will treat you well."

He looked a little tired and lazy, closed his eyes and didn't want to talk much.

Jiang Huiyuan understood that his knot in his heart had not been untied. Even if they got married, he still couldn't hold her in his heart.

She was very angry, but what could she do? In this relationship, she was always the passive one. She was the one who only wanted to be close to him and marry him.

"Then can you stop thinking about Qiao Xi from now on?"

Li Jingshen was stunned for a moment, with a few traces of pain in his eyes. He was nearly thirty years old when he finally got the woman he wanted, but she had fallen in love with Long Junye ten years ago.

At the right age, I met the woman I wanted to protect the most, but she already had someone in her heart. There is probably no love more regrettable and heartbreaking than this, right?

"Our affairs have nothing to do with Qiao Xi,"

"How can it have nothing to do with her? You were still saying her name last night. Qiao Xi is indeed very outstanding and beautiful, but she is already Long Junye's wife..."

Li Jingshen felt a pain in his chest. "If you knew all this from the beginning, why did you marry me?"

"Because I love you," Jiang Huiyuan was just as helpless as him, "I think, even if Qiao Xi likes Long Junye, if you can, you will be with her without hesitation, right?"

Li Jingshen did not deny, "Your assumption does not exist."

He didn't even have that chance.

"So, I'm still luckier than you. At least I can stay with you with a clear conscience, right?" Jiang Huiyuan's nose felt sore and she wanted to cry.

Li Jing took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, Huiyuan. I will try my best to integrate into your life and manage our little family well."

"But you have never let her go. I'm afraid I don't even have a corner in your heart?" Jiang Huiyuan didn't dare to ask for too much. She was just satisfied with having a place for me.

Li Jingshen replied, "Yes."

Jiang Huiyuan's heart trembled, "Okay, just based on these two words, I don't regret marrying you."

Li Jingshen received a call and went out for something.

It was almost noon, and Jiang Huiyuan called Qiao Xi and asked her to have lunch with her.

Qiao Xi happened to be free, so she went to the restaurant, "You're busy planning your wedding, so how can you have time to eat with me?"

Jiang Huiyuan poured her a glass of juice and said, "If some things are not handled properly, no matter how grand the wedding is, it will only be for show."

Qiao Xi felt that she had something to say, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Huiyuan stared at her and looked at her carefully. "In the eyes of outsiders, I am the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, a famous lady in the imperial capital, and a national goddess, but I really envy you."

Qiao Xi smiled and said, "While you envy me, I wonder how many people envy you."

Jiang Huiyuan smiled bitterly, "Brother Jingshen has never forgotten you. Until now, he still only has you in his heart. I can't even squeeze into a corner."

Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment, "Don't say that, Brother Jingshen still loves you very much, he and I are just friends."

Jiang Huiyuan shook her head, "Believe it or not, he called out your name when he was drunk."

Qiao Xi lost hold of the knife and fork in her hands and dropped them onto the dining table, with a look of surprise on her face.

Jiang Huiyuan, "I know this is not your fault. I won't blame you. In fact, it's not his fault either. He can't help it. He can't hide his love for someone, even though he has been trying hard to hide it."

Qiao Xi felt a little embarrassed, "Huiyuan, what do you want me to do?"

Jiang Huiyuan thought to herself, he is indeed a smart person, he understood immediately, "I don't know, maybe you can talk to him. I don't expect him to remove you from his heart, but at least let me integrate into it."

Qiao Xi didn't refuse. She really didn't want the two of them to have a rift because of her. "Okay, I'll call him later."

Jiang Huiyuan was about to say that Li Jingshen had an appointment to discuss a project in the afternoon, but she swallowed her words back. As long as it was Qiao Xi who asked him out, he would be able to put it aside even if it was something important, right?

Just as she thought, after Qiao Xi made the call, Li Jingshen did not refuse even though he was discussing an important project with someone. Instead, he apologized to the guest and rushed to the coffee shop in Wilson's lobby.

As long as Qiao Xi looked for him, no matter what it was or what he was doing, he would rush over without hesitation.

Jiang Huiyuan felt extremely uncomfortable when she found out. Her future husband treated Qiao Xi many times better than she did to her, but what else could she do? She was still hoping that Qiao Xi could make Li Jingshen control his temper.

"Brother Jingshen, did I bother you?" Qiao Xi ordered him an iced Americano.

"It's okay, I just happen to be free," Li Jingshen sat on the sofa opposite her, his expression always so gentle.

Qiao Xi picked up the juice and took a sip, "Brother Jingshen, I asked you out because I wanted to talk about Huiyuan."

Li Jingshen frowned, "Huiyuan? Did she come to see you?"

"I just had lunch with her," Qiao Xi thought about how to tell him, "Brother Jingshen, you still like me, right?"

Li Jingshen just took a sip of coffee and choked a few times, "Don't listen to Huiyuan's nonsense."

It’s not that he didn’t dare to admit it, but he didn’t want to bring unnecessary trouble to Qiao Xi.
