After seeing the true nature of the woman he had been pursuing, the CEO's wife cried and begged

Chapter 169 An Ambiguous Kiss

"Mr. Jiang, there's no need to be so agitated. I'm just injured and I'm asking Dr. Xu to take care of me."

Zhang Lingling stepped in to explain and help Xu Zirui out of the predicament.

Jiang Xin snorted coldly.

"Who knows what you're thinking, Xu Zirui? Come to the company right now."

"Get away from this woman quickly."

Jiang Xin spoke in a commanding tone.

Xu Zirui just sighed when he heard this.

"I did come here to take care of Zhang Lingling; she injured her leg."

"It's not appropriate for me to come find you so late."

Xu Zirui didn't want to continue arguing, especially since Zhang Lingling was there with him.

But upon hearing this, Jiang Xin sighed helplessly.

"Now is not the time to argue with Xu Zirui. You should protect yourself."

After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Xin hung up the phone.

Silence fell over the surroundings.

Xu Zirui frowned almost imperceptibly.

"As a divorced ex-wife, I have to worry about so much."

"Dr. Xu, I even suspect that your divorce with Jiang Xin is a sham."

This casual remark made Xu Zirui smile wryly.

"I'll take you to the hospital to get bandaged up first. Do you need me to notify the Zhang family?"

After Xu Zirui said that, Zhang Lingling calmed down.

All she could do was glare at Xu Zirui in secret.

How could Xu Zirui not know about her relationship with the Zhang family?

This was clearly meant to embarrass her.

Neither of them spoke again until they arrived at the hospital, where Xu Zirui settled the person in.

Xu Buyan also arrived at this time.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere in the ward, Xu Buyan walked in with heavy steps.

"Are you all alright? Luckily, I called Dr. Xu over in time."

"Don't worry about the banquet. I've already asked someone to take care of it."

After Xu Buyan finished speaking, he turned to look at Xu Zirui again.

"Dr. Xu, please let me know if you need anything, and I will do my best to help."

Xu Buyan was about to say a few more polite words, but Xu Zirui stopped him.

"It's getting late, you should all get some rest."

Xu Zirui yawned and left.

After everyone left, Xu Buyan immediately stood in front of Zhang Lingling.

"Sister Zhang, what you just did was really too risky."

"I don't think this man is worth you being so ruthless to yourself."

Xu Buyan didn't understand. Xu Zirui had such a cold and aloof demeanor and didn't seem to know anything about romance.

What's so appealing about someone with such a cold and aloof demeanor?

But there was a hint of determination in Zhang Lingling's eyes.

"That's the difference between the two of you. You'll always be stuck in that kind of place, but Dr. Xu is different."

"At least I've found a way to sow discord."

After saying that, Zhang Lingling pulled Xu Buyan over.

She gently left a kiss on his cheek.

The flash illuminated half of the ward in an instant, and Zhang Lingling deliberately chose a side profile photo that was extremely similar.

He then posted it on his WeChat Moments with ambiguous captions.

Jiang Xin was already unable to sleep because of the phone call earlier, and it was at this moment that Zhang Lingling's boastful post on WeChat Moments appeared.

Jiang Xin sat up instantly.

I was just about to take a closer look when I discovered that the post had disappeared.

But the profile picture in the photo kept her awake at all.

These two were just together a moment ago, and now Zhang Lingling has posted another ambiguous photo. Isn't that a provocation?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xin prepared to call Xu Zirui.

But in an instant, I remembered what had just happened.

The call ultimately failed to go through.

For a moment, Jiang Xin felt that something was missing in her heart.

Xu Zirui had no idea what changes Jiang Xin had gone through that night; he simply fell into a deep sleep after returning home.

Early in the morning, news about the Jiang Group began to be broadcast on a loop.

Xu Zirui also saw the notification on his phone.

I immediately thought of what Jiang Xin had said last night.

This must be the important thing Jiang Xin wanted to tell herself.

Even after just a cursory glance, Xu Zirui was somewhat surprised.

I never expected that Uncle Jiang would do such a thing behind my back.

The current punishment is considered lenient for Uncle Jiang.

In that instant, Xu Zirui thought of Jiang Xin.

Now, only her grandmother and Jiang Xin depend on each other for survival, and she must be suffering.

However, Jiang Xin has always been extremely good at hiding her feelings.

Only in Meng Chengze was there a kind of love that he wanted the whole world to know.

Xu Zirui shook his head, dismissing these jumbled thoughts from his mind.

Now Xu Zirui has returned to Jiang Xin's side once again.

He probably doesn't have a place anymore.

Life has simply returned to the days following the divorce.

For Xu Zirui, this is not a bad outcome.

Perhaps this way, they will never have any further contact.

That's what Xu Zirui thought, but reality taught him a lesson.

In the hospital corridor.

Jiang Xin was sitting to the side, and Meng Chengze was behind the door.

When Jiang Xin arrived in the morning, she found Meng Chunze still sleeping, so she didn't push the door open to disturb him.

The nurses around her were rushing around, and Jiang Xin kept looking in the direction of the door.

Hopefully, Xu Zirui will appear.

Yesterday, the higher-ups dealt with Uncle Jiang, merging all his assets into the company.

The money that the construction company embezzled has been recovered.

Now, thanks to these two events, the Jiang Group has regained its footing.

There will be no more mistakes in their careers, and they are likely starting to examine the two choices in front of them.

Meng Chengze's current harmony is merely superficial; Jiang Xin has no idea what he's really thinking.

Besides, how could Jiang Xin possibly keep someone who had already betrayed her once before by her side?

Jiang Xin made the wrong choice before, but now she only hopes that Xu Zirui will appear.

Perhaps the call in his heart had worked, and Xu Zirui walked in, bathed in sunlight.

Jiang Xin stepped forward quickly without thinking.

Xu Zirui's smile froze at that moment. He had just seen the news about the Jiang Group, and now the boss of the Jiang Group was standing in front of him.

"I saw the news this morning. Congratulations, Mr. Jiang."

Xu Zirui spoke first, and then prepared to leave. Jiang Xin naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Why didn't you reply to my messages last night? And how did you go to find Zhang Lingling?

Jiang Xin took a step forward and caught a whiff of a fresh fragrance.

Upon hearing Jiang Xin's words, Xu Zirui realized that what happened last night had caused her to misunderstand.

“A friend contacted me last night; it was a coincidence.”

"I took the person to the hospital and then went home."

Xu Zirui's expression remained calm.

Jiang Xin did not get angry; instead, she nodded slightly.

"I understand, I'm willing to believe you."

Jiang Xin's words made Xu Zirui's eyes widen.

Jiang Xin did not miss the momentary lapse in composure.

"You don't need to be so surprised. I did pay less attention to you before, and I didn't even choose to believe you."

"I should have changed after you healed my leg, but I neglected you at that time."

Do you have time after get off work tonight?

Jiang Xin extended the invitation once again.
