Cen Yi drove another car to the address on his phone.

Cheng Yu and Meng Tingwan sat in the back, while Feng Zhuo drove.

The three of them remained silent, and the atmosphere in the car became somewhat awkward.

Finally, Cheng Yu took the initiative to say, "I didn't handle Levin's actions well, I'm sorry."

"Madam, it wasn't the boss, it was my carelessness. I let him sneak in when the party was ending." Feng Zhuo was terrified. If it weren't for Cen Yi by his wife's side, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

After hearing this, Meng Tingwan said indifferently, "There's no need to apologize. I said that day that this matter has nothing to do with you. I can handle it myself."

Feng Zhuo's inner thoughts: Oh no, we're going to start arguing again.

He floored the accelerator, aiming to reach Jinghua Royal Garden before the two started arguing.

Cheng Yu had actually guessed that she would say that, but when she actually did, he still felt a dull pain in his heart.

I saw her at the banquet tonight and heard her defend herself and not let me drink. I thought we could both be at peace tonight.

But in the end, he was just overthinking it.

"Listen to this, a spokesperson for the Cheng Group, do you want him?"

Cheng Yu turned his head and looked at her profile, a hint of humility in his eyes.

"If I want it, will I have it?" Meng Tingwan turned to look at him. The man's cheeks were slightly flushed, probably from drinking, and his eyes were glistening with tears.

"If you want it, you can have it."

Cheng Yu spoke with great certainty.

As long as she asks, he will do everything in his power to get back what he doesn't have, let alone what he has.

Meng Tingwan smiled, but her smile was somewhat enigmatic.

"I do not want."

“One of the terms of our deal is that I will not endorse any of Cheng’s Group’s products. I simply don’t want to have any connection with Cheng’s Group, nor do I want outsiders to know that I have any relationship with the president of Cheng’s Group. Do you understand?”

Cheng Yu's throat was dry.

He stared at her face without moving, trying to see even the slightest trace of tenderness in her resolute eyes.

But he failed.

Because in Meng Tingwan's eyes, besides determination, there was also endless indifference.

Feng Zhuo swallowed hard, unable to bear seeing the two of them like this. "Madam, after you two had that argument the other day, the boss felt unwell when he got back, and his wound even reopened. He's only been able to eat one meal in the last two days, and he forced himself to come to the investment conference tonight."

Cheng Yu didn't have time to stop him before Feng Zhuo blurted everything out.

Meng Tingwan clenched her palms, trying hard not to reveal her true emotions, but her words were still hurtful, "Is that so? Then according to you, it's all my fault."

"No, that's not what I meant."

Feng Zhuo was almost in tears while driving.

What kind of road is this? It's so long! How come we're not there yet?!

Cheng Yu couldn't stand her tone of voice; it was like being caught between fire and ice, neither here nor there.

“You don’t want the Cheng family’s endorsement, and you don’t want me to help you investigate Levin’s matter, but don’t forget, we’re not divorced yet. I’m still your husband, and I have the obligation and responsibility to care about you.”

"I don't need it, Cheng Yu. Do you have to make me say it so harshly?" Meng Tingwan's voice was as cold and piercing as snow in the dead of winter. "I don't care if you like me or not, but you shouldn't interfere in my affairs."

"You're not letting me get involved, so you're planning to have Huo Lin'an investigate for you?"

Cheng Yu countered with a question.

He saw it trending on social media, which didn't surprise Meng Tingwan. However, for some reason, hearing him ask her that question made her inexplicably annoyed.

"Yeah, so what? Didn't you already decide on Wang Jin for the Cheng Group's endorsement? You were just pretending to ask me if I wanted it, and when I said no, you started playing the victim. Cheng Yu, before you come to question me, you should ask yourself what you've done!"

Cheng Yu froze, his eyes filled with disbelief.

In her eyes, am I really that worthless? That despicable?

He clenched his fists, veins bulging on his arms, and his temples throbbing.

"That's perfect. Isn't Wang Jin the marriage partner the Cheng family found for you? Huo Lin'an is also my fiancé whom my father found for me. We can get divorced and then go back to get married. It's a good thing."

fiancé? !

Cheng Yu initially thought that the trending topic was just a coincidence, but she never expected that it was actually the fiancé that the Meng family had found for her!

Great, that's wonderful!

Feng Zhuo was also extremely shocked.

I never expected that the newly appointed president of the Meng Group would be my wife's fiancé.

"Boss, I haven't had time to check this yet."

Just then, the car drove into Jinghua Royal Garden, and he opened the car door and ran away.

Meng Tingwan unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car.

Cheng Yu followed behind her.

The two went in one after the other.

Meng Tingwan knew what was going to happen tonight, so she started taking off her clothes as soon as she went inside.

The room was dark, and Cheng Yu's eyes were frighteningly gloomy. All that could be seen was her taking off her coat and throwing it on the ground.

He went up and grabbed her hand.

"Explain yourself first. What fiancé? And when did this happen?"

Meng Tingwan was half-held in his arms, their bodies pressed close together.

"It happened that night. My dad told me to go home, get married, and inherit the Meng Group."

"You agree?"

"Why don't you agree?" Meng Tingwan raised her face to look at Cheng Yu. "He's very good, I like him very much."

This expression of affection pierced Cheng Yu's heart once again.

He gripped the woman's slender waist tightly, as if he wanted to tear her apart and devour her right now.

"You like it a lot? Meng Tingwan, what about my liking?" He didn't believe her words, not a single one of them.

I don't care about what you like.

Meng Tingwan didn't struggle; she just stared at him stubbornly, each word she spoke like a knife, stabbing fiercely into Cheng Yu's heart.

"Fine, you don't care." Cheng Yu's eyes were red-rimmed, and tears welled up at the corners of his eyes in the darkness, which Meng Tingwan couldn't see clearly.

"Our deal isn't over yet, we can't get a divorce, so give up on that idea."

"ended."

Meng Tingwan said.

"What?" Cheng Yu thought he was hallucinating.

Meng Tingwan gritted her teeth, suppressing the reluctance in her eyes, and then adopted her usual indifferent tone for the evening, "I said, it's over. Our deal is over."

"On what grounds? What's the reason?"

"The reason is simple: I don't need her anymore, I'm not looking for her anymore, is that enough?" Meng Tingwan almost shouted, then broke free from his grasp. "Cheng Yu, this was a deal between us. I'm not looking for her anymore, so you don't need to bother. Let's end it here, okay?"

"Oh no!" Cheng Yu felt like he was going crazy; his heart was aching unbearably.

How could she not need it?

How could she stop looking?

The only connection between her and herself was this, and now that she says she's not looking anymore, she can't even find a reason to ask her to stay...
