After Divorcing, She Became An Absolute Beauty

Panda Novel

By the time Du Ling had a large table of mouth-watering dishes served, the sky had just turned dark. All the dishes on the table were spicy food.

"Auntie, he doesn't eat spicy food." Du Jiuyuan liked spicy food, but because Ji Jingchen didn't eat it, she had not eaten it for a long time either.

"I know, but our Yuanyuan likes it!" Du Ling looked at Du Jiuyuan with a doting gaze.

The doorbell rang and Du Ling went to open the door. Ji Jingchen held a bouquet of flowers in his hand and Jiang Cheng followed behind him, his hands full of things.

"What is this for? We're all family, what's the point of bringing gifts?" Du Ling invited him in enthusiastically.

Little did Ji Jingchen know that what awaited him was a banquet.

"Jingchen! Auntie doesn't know what you like to eat, but according to my Yuanyuan's preferences, I should definitely have chosen appropriate dishes. You've been married to Yuanyuan for more than five years, so I believe you definitely know what she likes," Du Ling said as she picked up some food for Ji Jingchen with her chopsticks.

Every dish on the table was red and filled with chili.

Du Jiuyuan loved spicy food, but Ji Jingchen never ate it. He looked at the chili-covered meat in his bowl and frowned.

Du Jiuyuan gobbled it up, completely ignoring Ji Jingchen.

"Quick, try it. It's very delicious," Du Ling urged when she saw that Ji Jingchen did not eat.

Ji Jingchen looked at Du Jiuyuan, but she continued to eat very happily as if nothing was wrong.

"Ms. Du, CEO Ji doesn't eat spicy food." Jiang Cheng couldn't stand it any longer and spoke up.

"Nonsense! Our Yuanyuan loves spicy food. How could Jingchen not like it? Come, come, come. This is devil pepper and Yuanyuan can eat several pieces in one go." Du Ling enthusiastically picked up food for Ji Jingchen, completely ignoring his solemn expression.

Ji Jingchen had no choice but to eat. He picked up a piece of devil pepper nervously.

The moment the pepper entered his mouth, he looked at Du Jiuyuan suspiciously. How many of these things could she eat at once?

Ji Jingchen swallowed it forcefully. He felt as though his mouth was about to explode from the pain!

Throughout the entire meal, Du Jiuyuan ate to her heart's content. Meanwhile, Du Ling had been busy serving more food to Ji Jingchen.

Ji Jingchen, on the other hand, ate the pepper that he had never eaten before his entire life with a change of expression. Even though his forehead was covered in sweat, he remained silent.

After eating, Du Jiuyuan stood up and returned to her room. Du Ling tidied up the dishes and busied herself in the kitchen. Ji Jingchen did not leave. Instead, he sat on the sofa and took a nap.

Jiang Cheng was three steps away from him. When he saw Ji Jingchen's condition, he trembled slightly.

Ji Jingchen, who had never eaten spicy food before, suddenly ate so much. His stomach must be feeling very uncomfortable.

Du Jiuyuan returned to her room to find a box of medicine for the stomach. After hesitating for a moment, she took the medicine and walked out.

1

She poured a cup of warm water for Ji Jingchen. She placed the medicine in front of him and was about to go back to her room when he unexpectedly pulled her back.

"You still care about me," Ji Jingchen suddenly said, full of probing.

1

"Let go!" Du Jiuyuan felt an inexplicable fire rise in her heart.

This annoying man was extremely arrogant as well.

Ji Jingchen didn't let go. Instead, he pulled even tighter. A pair of beautiful eyes stared at her, as if expressing endless affection.

Du Jiuyuan wondered if she had seen it wrongly. Ji Jingchen was actually capable of making such an expression?

"If it isn't against the law to murder someone, I would have killed you with my own hands, thousands of times. I brought you this medicine because I don't want to see anything happen to you. Otherwise, those wolves, tigers, and leopards in your house would definitely swallow me whole."

'Don't be soft-hearted, don't be soft-hearted, don't be soft-hearted.' Du Jiuyuan muttered to herself silently.

"Oh, what are you two doing here? Is it romantic love or tension?! Come on, aren't the both of you already matured enough? Jingchen, let go of Yuanyuan. As an elder, I have something to ask you." Du Ling finished cleaning up the kitchen and arrived to help Du Jiuyuan escape her predicament.

Ji Jingchen let go of Du Jiuyuan and picked up the medicine on the table. He did not drink any water and swallowed the bitter pill as a whole.

Did this man have a masochistic complex?

Du Jiuyuan turned around and was about to return to the hall when she was stopped by Du Ling.

"Yuanyuan, don't go. Stay here." Du Ling suddenly became serious and looked threatening without being angry.

"Jingchen, let me ask you. What is the relationship between that lady, Tang Yingxue and the Ji family?" If one could not refuse Du Ling when she was passionate, then it was even more so when she was being serious.

"She is Old Madam Ji's adopted daughter." Ji Jingchen still remembered the scene at the hospital a few days ago and deliberately addressed his stepmother as Old Madam Ji.

"Then why did she come to look for Yuanyuan today and act as if she is the Ji family's mistress?" Du Ling questioned.

The Du family was not to be trifled with. In Zhongshan, Du Ling could be said to be a well-known person who was feared by all.

Old Madam Ji had spoiled Tang Yingxue. She had been instilled with the idea of marrying Ji Jingchen since she was young, and this idea was deeply ingrained in her.

Old Madam Ji felt that she could not control Ji Jingchen, so she wanted to use Tang Yingxue to restrain him.

Logically speaking, Tang Yingxue was quite good-looking. In addition, Old Madam Ji had provided her with all kinds of expensive skincare products since a young age, so she was one of the best looking girls in Hong Kong city.. Despite that, Ji Jingchen only found her annoying.
