CEO Vengeful wife

Chapter 129 - Where were you in my long nightmare.

A photo rested in his hands. His cold eyes swept through those pictures. In wouldn't be right to say that he was unaffected. There was a slight ripple in his countenance. But he was able to overcome it quickly before ayone could detect. "What do you want by showing these to me?"

Su Jiayi was not standing far from him. "I don't why did you have a sudden change in heart. But this shows everything that Jing Lihua wants. And it doesn't involve you!" Su Jiayi didn't pick up the pictures. She wanted her brother to look at them. She wanted him to hate her.

"I never said I had a change of heart. Su Liwei didn't look at the photos anymore. He rose and walked to the window and glanced outside. His expressions were cold.

"Then why did you defy uncle?! Why did you resign than hurt her?"

Su Liwei was silent. He didn't respond.

"Your silence can't hide anything. Before mother died you had confessed to us all your feelings for her." Su Jiayi had bandages over her face. She was still furious.

She picked up the pictures in which Jing Lihua was seen kissing a man. The picture was taken by a spy instilled by them close to her Tang Enterprise complex. The face of the man whom she kissed was not visible. Because in the picture, she had turned back and kissed the man in the car while the man hugged her.

How stupid of her. If she wanted an affair, she could at least be discreet.

"I have told. I have already given up on her. I don't want to have anything to do with her." Su Liwei said after a long silence.

"You can't escape it, big brother." Su Jiayi was not going to give up. "You can't escape the promise you made to our mother on her deathbed." Su Jiayi put the pictures back into a file. She was going to have a nice use of these pictures in the future. Be it blackmail or scandals. She wouldn't spare a single effort to harm Jing Lihua in the worst possible way. "What are you still holding onto? Have you not seen this for yourself. That woman wants nothing to do with you. Then why do you still insist on protecting her?

Silence. Su Liwei didn't say anything. His eyes continued to stare out of the window.

But Su Jiayi wasn't going to leave.

"What do you want me to do?" He finally asked. His sister wasn't here for no reason. She wanted something from him and she would get him one way or another.

"I want you to take her away for some time." Unlike Su Liwei who had been out of everything, Su Jiayi had kept in connection with her uncle. Whatever Su Empire did now happened with both of their consent and planning. Su Liwei had completely given up on everything. "It has been two months since your marriage to her. Back then, she was at the edge of bankruptcy. But right now, she is not far from reaching us to us."

"How do you expect me to take her away?" Su Liwie calmly asked.

"You are a newlywed couple. Be it Honeymoon or whatever excuse you have to provide. Just take her away. We want a chance; her company without her presence. Only then we can do something."

When Su Liwei didn't reply, Su Jiayi laughed: "What am I assume from this? You are not even willing to do this much? If not for that you want to protect her, why else you behave this way? Su Liwei have you really forgotten how our mother passed away!" Su Jiayi's voice rose.

Su Liwei fists tightened. "I'll take her away."

...

Li Zhiqiang finally looked less grumpy after getting a kiss from Jing Lihua. But from time to time, he would glance at that white cat that rested very comfortably in Jing Lihua's lap.

"Li Zhiqiang, you need to stop doing this." Jing Lihua laughed whenever she caught the look of jealousy and envy on his face. This guy was just hopeless.

"Why does the cat get to be on our private time together?" He wouldn't have minded before but now that whenever he tried to make a move on her if Jing Lihua was unwilling the cat would snarl at him.

He didn't like that.

Listening to his complaint, Jing Lihua laughed again. "Are you for real? Let's just ignore that. We have arrived." Jing Lihua stepped out of the car with a smile. Li Zhiqiang followed her. Just as they stepped out, the cold wind hit them.

There was a small stall by the roadside. Memories rushed to Jing Lihua. Inevitably, she smiled. "During my teenage years, I used to come here often with Zhao Liying and Mo Liang." She laughed.

"How strange. Don't the young mistresses of wealthy families prefer rich fancy restaurants?" Li Zhiqiang smiled put off his coat and put it over Jing Lihua's shoulders. The cat meowed lightly. The large coat even covered her entirely.

"That was before my grandfather connected with me. Before that, I wasn't a rich mistress. Back then I was the child of an ex-wife and you know that how they get treated." Though Jing Lihua talked about those hurtful days, there was a gentle smile on her lips. She was strong. When Li Zhiqiang looked at her admiration would appear in his heart.

"After my grandfather connected me, I can't deny that suddenly being showered with so much wealth I wasn't spoiled. After all, before that, I had lived without ever getting a penny to spend on my own. For a few years, I spent quite lavishly."

"Then what caused you to change?"

That was a difficult path. What had caused her to change? Jing Lihua sighed. "A very long nightmare. I saw everything that could happen if I was to continue like that in a dream." Her past life felt like a dream to her now. "That time, I understood the worth of everything I had."

Li Zhiqiang quickly put his arms around her. "Now that I'm with you, you can continue to live the way you want. You can act spoiled. You can spend lavishly. You can be however you want to be."

Jing Lihua smiled. In a light whisper, she said: "You say that now but where were you in my long nightmare?"
