257 He liked her a lot

Xie Yunjin found himself eager to explain, “Though she’s strong, she’s not unreasonable. She’s very moral.”

Cla.s.smate Han agreed and nodded, “It’s true. Lady Lu isn’t someone who stirs up trouble unreasonably. As long as Yunjin doesn’t provoke her, she wouldn’t hit him.”

Then, cla.s.smate Han thought of how Xie Yunjin hit Liang Ziwen because of his vulgar language towards Lu Jiao.

They all knew Liang Ziwen was not a good person to mess with, yet Yunjin couldn’t stop himself from hitting him. This meant Yunjin loved Lu Jiao a lot.

Cla.s.smate Han chuckled and said to Xie Yunjin, “Plus, Yunjin loves his wife. He would willingly take a beating from her.”

Everyone at the table quieted down and then all looked toward Xie Yunjin.

Xie Yunjin grew shy immediately and he angrily glared at cla.s.smate Han, “What are you talking about?”

Cla.s.smate Han laughed, “What’s there to be embarra.s.sed about? It’s normal to like your own wife. It’s not like you’re expressing love for someone else. Plus, to be with the person you like is a very fortunate thing.”

Most of them got married according to their parents’ wishes. Very few actually got to marry the person they liked. Yunjin was lucky.

All the men at the table nodded and raised their gla.s.ses to congratulate Xie Yunjin.

“Congratulations, Yunjin. You have a great wife.”

“With a wife like that, your future is bright.”

“You may get lots of beating in the future though, haha.”

Xie Yunjin’s ears grew red from everyone’s teasing. His emotions ran wild and he recalled just how curious he was when Liang Ziwen said those things to Lu Jiao. At the time, all he wanted was to beat that guy to death.

The memory of Liang Ziwen made his eyes go dark. The coldness around him dissipated. He didn’t plan on forgiving that man.

Then, he thought of all the teasing today.

He liked Lu Jiao?

He knew he liked Lu Jiao somewhat but he always thought he only liked her a little. After today, he seemed to have realized that he liked her more than just somewhat.

After the group ate, they chatted for a while longer. After that, Zheng Zhixing and the others went back home with their wives and children.

Cla.s.smate Han was the only one who stayed behind. Xie Yunjin took him to his study so they could have some tea and chat.

Cla.s.smate Han warned Xie Yunjin again to watch out for Liang Ziwen.

“He’s evil. You have to be careful. You never know what he’s plotting.”

Xie Yunjin’s eyes lowered and he said solemnly, “I will.”

“Should I hire some people to guard you? Just in case he chooses violence against your family.”

Xie Yunjin shook his head, “That’s okay. I’m not going to just sit here and wait for his attack.”

He then looked towards cla.s.smate Han, “Let’s stop talking about him. It’s putting me in a bad mood.”

It felt like Xie Yunjin had an idea of what he planned to do next. Therefore, cla.s.smate Han didn’t bring up that man again.

He changed the subject to Lu Jiao, “Lady Lu was truly heroic for beating up Liang Ziwen.” He chuckled and then added, “You have to be careful now. If you make Lady Lu angry, you’ll get a beating too. Even if you do get beat up, however, I’m sure you’ll act like you’ve had honey because you like her.”

He then thought of Du Lanzhu and felt a little frustrated.

The Han and Du families were similar in terms of wealth and they were involved in business together. The Du family only had one daughter, Du Lanzhu. Worried that other men may not treat her well, they chose him.

His family thought Du Lanzhu was a good girl and ordered him to take her as his wife.

He didn’t want to marry Du Lanzhu initially due to her high-maintenance personality. His parents had told him that women were often that way but changed once they get married.

After several years, however, Du Lanzhu remained immature and her asks of him grew even more unreasonable.

Cla.s.smate Han decided to have a serious conversation with her tonight.

In the study, Xie Yunjin pondered over cla.s.smate Han’s comment and asked, “Is it that obvious?”

Cla.s.smate Han laughed, “Of course. Your face gets ugly when someone, anyone, talks to your wife. When Liang Ziwen made an unsavory comment, your entire face turned green and you hit him right away.

If you didn’t like Lady Lu, you would’ve remained calm like usual. No matter how much you dislike him, you wouldn’t have hit him.”

Xie Yunjin’s handsome face flooded with softness and light practically shone from his eyes.

He soon recalled the divorce letter he wrote Lu Jiao and quieted down.

He had already granted Lu Jiao the separation she wanted. So what if he likes her now?

Xie Yunjin’s mood was so down he didn’t even want to talk anymore.

Then, he remembered that he had dated the letter with a date in six months.

The reason why he did that was to defend his family. He was worried that Lu Jiao might just pack her bags and leave if he somehow made her angry.

Thinking back, even at times, he was subconsciously trying to keep Lu Jiao. And that was the real reason why he dated the letter for later.

This bought him some time.

His eyes lit up.

Cla.s.smate Han saw the happiness on his face and his heart became sour. How come everyone else but him got to meet a woman they actually liked?

Cla.s.smate Han didn’t want to sit here any longer. He said bye to Xie Yunjin.

Xie Yunjin said starting tomorrow, he will begin to teach students from the school and asked Cla.s.smate Han to come and study as well.

Cla.s.smate Han nodded and went to pick up his sons.

His sons were having so much fun, they disappeared.

Before he could find them, Lu Gui brought them over from the back courtyard, “They seem to be a little tired. My sister tried to get them to take a nap but they refused and looked for you. My sister had no choice but to ask me to bring them to you.”

Cla.s.smate Han took his sons by their hands and went on his family’s horse carriage.

Behind him, Xie Yunjin stayed in his study and wondered how he could treat his pending divorce.

Today, he discovered that he liked Lu Jiao. It wasn’t just any type of like, it was the type of like where he didn’t want to separate from her or allow her to leave.

But he had given her a divorce letter. Therefore, within the next six months, he had to make Lu Jiao accept him so she wouldn’t leave him or their children.

Xie Yunjin felt like he had a good plan. However, he was worried that Lu Jiao wouldn’t return his feelings. After all, this woman was not the same Lu Jiao he met and her ways of thinking were often different from other women.

Xie Yunjin pondered over this for a full four hours. In the end, he finally decided to confess his feelings to Lu Jiao.

It didn’t matter if she accepted him or not. He had to make sure she knew how he felt about her.

Xie Yunjin went outside his room once he made up his mind. However, inside the yard, he saw Lu Jiao walk over with Feng Zhi.

Their eyes met and his heart rate shot up. Instantly, he felt so scared he s.h.i.+fted his gaze away.
