After being reborn, I decisively broke off my engagement and married a cold-faced military young mas

"How much is just a little bit?"

Lu Jiangting: "..."

Before he could answer, she added, "What if her hair salon closes down and loses money?"

"No, it won't happen," he said directly.

Lin Yuyao: "I'm asking, what if? What if she loses all her money and has no money to live on? Would you help her?"

Lu Jiangting said, "Yuyao, don't make assumptions about things that haven't happened."

"Why not just assume? Look, I'm asking you this: if you won't even tell me, how can I believe you?"

“You…” He felt she was being stubborn, so to appease him, he could only say, “Then give me the most basic living expenses.”

"That's too vague. I need a specific amount."

Lu Jiangting hadn't expected her to be so aggressive.

Especially in front of an outsider like Fu Huaiyi.

He felt very uncomfortable talking about these things in front of a stranger, so he said, "Can you leave? Yuyao and I are having a conversation. What right do you, an outsider, have to be here?"

Fu Huaiyi had a cold face, his fists clenched so tightly they were whiter than his face, looking like he was ready to fight at any moment.

Lin Yuyao was really afraid that they would fight again, so she said, "Fang Qing is not an outsider, right? She is your wife, so she can participate in such an important event as our wedding."

Upon mentioning Fang Qing, Lu Jiangting fell silent again.

He is now filled with regret, but there's nothing he can do.

Even if it happened again, he couldn't just ignore Fang Qing.

However... I might tell Fang Qing in a more tactful way that I can't lend her too much money.

At the very least, he should have set aside money for his wedding with Yuyao, otherwise things would have turned out like this.

Lu Jiangting took a deep breath and looked at Lin Yuyao, saying, "I was wrong about Fang Qing, I know I was wrong. Yuyao, let's live a good life together, I apologize to you."

"No, you haven't answered my question yet."

Lu Jiangting: "..."

Faced with her questioning, Lu Jiangting assumed that she simply wanted a specific amount to be secretly given, and then see if she could accept it.

If I say too much, Yu Yao will definitely not be happy; if I say too little, what if I really encounter the kind of thing Yu Yao described in the future?

A little money is definitely not enough for Fang Qing and her son to live on.

Raising children is very expensive.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally came up with an amount.

"It's about a third of my salary. If my salary goes up, prices will definitely go up too."

Ah?

One-third?

Did her outburst only reduce the score from one-half to one-third?

Lin Yuyao suddenly smiled.

Lu Jiangting looked at her, puzzled, and stammered, "If... if you think it's too much... you can have less, but not too little. Raising a child is very expensive."

Hearing him say that, Lin Yuyao suddenly burst out laughing.

"Raising children costs money?" So he knew it cost money after all.

"One-third? Huh? One-third... Your parents are getting old, don't they need money too?"

Lu Jiangting: "..."

“Give them another third, and what about you? You'll have to pay for it yourself, right? And you can't give me all of the remaining third, can you? So…”

Lin Yuyao took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, and couldn't stop her tears.

She remembered what happened in her dream again.

It felt so real, as if she had experienced it herself.

When they saw her crying, the two men in the room became anxious.

Fu Huaiyi was about to say something when Lu Jiangting interrupted him.

"Yuyao, I was wrong, I was really wrong, go ahead and cry. We won't give it to you anymore, okay?"

"You won't give it to me? Are you trying to fool me?"

Lu Jiangting: "..."

Lin Yuyao pushed away Lu Jiangting's hand that was on her knee and said coldly, "Forget it, there's no chance for us in this lifetime."

Lu Jiangting's hand went empty, and he said angrily, "Why? Why do you have to target Fang Qing? I've told you countless times that there's nothing between me and her."

Lin Yuyao said indifferently, "Say whatever you want, it has nothing to do with me."

"Are you saying something in anger again? You keep saying that my relationship with Fang Qing is ambiguous, but is your relationship with Fu Huaiyi also clear? Why is he here?"

Lin Yuyao stared in disbelief at the man who was now turning the tables on her.

She wanted to say that she and Fu Huaiyi were innocent, but then she thought, if she said that, how would she be any different from Lu Jiangting?

“I’m not like you. I didn’t string you along, so I don’t need to prove myself. But you, Lu Jiangting, are trying to win me back while you’re entangled with Fang Qing.”

He and Fang Qing, one of them acted like a prostitute but insisted on pretending to be virtuous.

Wanting both of them? Where in the world is there such a good deal?

Lu Jiangting opened his mouth, wanting to argue, but Lin Yuyao continued to say with a cold smile, "What I do with other people is none of your business. Don't forget that I broke off our engagement the day you tricked me out of my dowry and gave it to Fang Qing. Even if I go on blind dates and start dating right now, it's none of your business."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "If we end up getting a marriage certificate, you'll be committing marriage fraud, which is a crime, and I won't acknowledge it."

Lu Jiangting never expected that the usually gentle woman would speak so harshly. He clutched his chest and said, "Yuyao, your words have hurt me. Just because of Fang Qing, just because I gave her money, you're so heartless?"

"Correct."

"Why?" Lu Jiangting asked painfully.

Lin Yuyao took a deep breath and said, "Because...where the money is, there the love is."

Lu Jiangting: "..."

"It's not about how much I give you, I want everything, not a single penny can be given to other women. If you can't do that, then don't bother me."

Lu Jiangting opened his mouth, unable to speak.

Lin Yuyao continued, "I won't let this go after you tricked me into marriage, and I won't live with you anymore."

"Are you...serious?"

Yes, it's true.

Lu Jiangting glared angrily at Fu Huaiyi, who was standing to the side.

He knew perfectly well that it was because of his affair with Fang Qing that Lin Yuyao didn't want to live with him.

But he blamed Fu Huaiyi.

Yu Yao might not understand, but he, as a man, understood it all too well.

Fu Huaiyi's gaze towards her was not innocent.

……

Lu Jiangting and Fu Huaiyi left together, departing in silence.

Lu Jiangting rode a bicycle, and Fu Huaiyi rode a motorcycle.

He deliberately slowed down so that Lu Jiangting could catch up, but it still exhausted him.

Halfway there, we came to a place with few people, with rapeseed fields belonging to nearby villagers on both sides.

The two stopped their cars at the same time and started fighting without saying a word.

You punch me, I punch you.

Both of them were injured.

When they were tired from fighting, the two sat down to talk.

“I knew you came to see Yuyao when I heard from A-Shuo that you had taken leave. Fu Huaiyi, don’t forget that she is my wife. What you’re doing is breaking up a military marriage. If I report you, you will be discharged from the military.”

Fu Huaiyi sneered, "Ha, military marriage? You mean the kind of military marriage where they conspire with Lao Zhou to commit marriage fraud?"

"You..." Lu Jiangting was astonished, "How did you know?"

"Hmph, if you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place." Fu Huaiyi said indifferently, "I advise you to agree to divorce Xiaolin as soon as possible, otherwise you won't need to write a letter of complaint, I will report you for marriage fraud first."

“You…” Lu Jiangting clenched his fists angrily.

Fu Huaiyi sneered, "What? You still want to fight?"

He was slightly inferior to him, and today he had exhausted himself riding his bike for several kilometers, so he was no match for him at all.

Lu Jiangting said angrily, "Do you really want to go against me?"

"I just can't stand you bullying that little girl."

"Hmph, really? So you've taken a fancy to her?"

Fu Huaiyi's face quickly turned cold. "If you think so, then so be it."

After saying that, he dusted off his pants and left.

This time he rode incredibly fast, and even if Lu Jiangting pedaled his bicycle until it was smoking, he still couldn't catch up.

Lu Jiangting was furious.

How could he not know Fu Huaiyi, who was his classmate?

He comes from a good family, has excellent grades in school, and is good-looking. Many girls like him.

He received love letters all the time when he was in school, but he didn't like any of them.

Fu Huaiyi had never cared about that girl so much before.

If he didn't like it, given his personality, he would have immediately distanced himself from it after hearing what he said.

But just now, not only did he not distance himself from the matter, he also tacitly agreed to it.

Lu Jiangting's heart pounded wildly.

Has Fu Huaiyi taken a liking to Yu Yao?

Yu Yao is just a country girl, only a bit pretty. Did he really fall for her?
