Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

“Big Brother Yan… Big Brother Yan…” The person next to him called Li Yan and snapped him out of his daze.

Li Yan turned his head around and looked at the person beside him. He said nonchalantly, “Nothing.”

Lu Shu’s smile stiffened. She looked in the direction where Li Yan had just looked at. She saw Zhao Youlin was taking Mu Tingfeng and they were walking toward the car. She narrowed her eyes. She pretended to be caught by surprise by saying, “Eh, isn’t the person over there the one who was involved in the case which we have received last time? Why is she there? And the person next to her… Eh, the person looks like the man who took the bullet for her that day!”

While Lu Shu was watching the two not far away from them, she observed Li Yan’s expression carefully. When she saw no reaction from him, she continued, “Big Brother Yan, what’s your opinion about the relationship between the two? Are they dating? Or are they a married couple? I think they are a married couple. Even if they aren’t, they are in a stable relationship. Otherwise, why would a man save a lady at all cost? Do you think so?”

Li Yan’s expression remained the same. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the steering under his hand.

Meanwhile, Lu Shu did not notice any of that. She continued to add fuel to the fire by saying, “If you look carefully, they really make a good pair. She looks so pretty, while the man looks very tall and handsome, they are a match made in heaven. The man… Oh, by the way, no wonder the man looks so familiar. I think he appeared on the financial magazine cover not long ago, right? He is the president of Mu Feng Group. He is a real-life rich, tall and handsome man. If I remember correctly, the woman is also a lady from a rich family, right? They are of similar status, so…”

“Enough!” Before Lu Shu finished lamenting about this, Li Yan could no longer hold himself back and shouted at her. He interrupted her impatiently.

“Big… Big Brother Yan…” Lu Shu was caught off guard. A look of aggrievedness appeared in her eyes.

However, at that moment, Li Yan was extremely agitated by Lu Shu’s words. His face turned black, and he said, “All that has nothing to do with you. You don’t have to be so nosy as to butt in their affairs. Regardless of whether they are dating or a married couple, it’s their business. Why do you have to care so much?!”

“Big Brother Yan, I was just…”

Lu Shu was about to explain herself. Unfortunately, before she finished speaking, she was once again interrupted by Li Yan. “What’s with that?! Was it because of curiosity?! Or was it simply for fun?! Or because he is filthy rich, tall and handsome?! Heh! I know I’m not as wealthy, powerful or good-looking as him. I’m just a poor police officer. I’ve had no success. I stay in the police force just to pass my time. Also, you’re the one who provides for my accommodation and transport. I am no match for you! If you really like that man so much, I could divorce you. I’ll give you freedom. With your current status, I believe many people would be waiting in line for you!”

Right after Li Yan spoke, the originally aggrieved Lu Shu instantly changed to the look of disbelief. She widened her eyes and looked at Li Yan in grief. In just a moment, her eyes were welled up in tears.

“Big Brother Yan, I didn’t mean it. You… How could you say that to me? I am sincere to you. Couldn’t you understand? Do you need me to dig out my heart and show it to you in order to prove my sincerity for you? I… Sob… To be frank, I know you have not forgotten Zhao Youlin. But, I’m willing to wait for you, I’m willing to wait for you until you recuperate from the bereavement of losing her. I love you so much… How could you say that to me? How could you even say you want to divorce me? Do you really think I am such a promiscuous woman? Or, is it simply because you don’t really care about me, so you look for various excuses to get rid of me?”

Looking at the teary Lu Shu, Li Yan finally became aware his loss of composure. A trace of embarrassment flashed across his eyes. He wiped away Lu Shu’s tears in a flurry of motion. He looked apologetically.

“I-I… I don’t mean it. Don’t cry. I was wrong for saying the wrong things. I’m a bit frustrated because there are many things to handle in the bureau. I never had the intention of throwing a tantrum at you. Don’t cry…”

Lu Shu sniffed while looking at the certain one who was expressing his feelings for her. “Big Brother Yan, I know you’re under great pressure. I also know that you have been holding a grudge against our current situation because of my father. You felt like you have been suppressed by someone and that you rely on the elders to achieve what you have today. Big Brother Yan, in fact, you don’t have to take all this to heart. We’re a family. My father is yours as well. You deserve everything you have now. You don’t have to burden yourself. But, you should not repeat what you’ve said just now in the future, which is about divorce. I really couldn’t take it… Sob…”

Looking at Lu Shu’s grief-stricken appearance, Li Yan frowned. He could not help but feel remorseful. He lowered his voice and comforted her, “Alright, alright. It’s my fault. I was wrong. I would not repeat those ridiculous words anymore. Don’t cry…”

When Lu Shu finally heard the words she had wished for, she stopped crying. Only then did she smile with tear marks all over her face.

Li Yan heaved a sigh of relief. He sighed. He turned on the car engine and they left.

While Li Yan was focused on driving, unbeknownst to him, the moment he looked away from Lu Shu, Lu Shu looked past him discreetly at the direction where Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng had left. A hint of sinister and resentment slowly appeared in her eyes. Her hands, which she placed on her knees, unwittingly tightened, crumpling the hem of her pretty dress.

On the other hand, Zhao Youlin had no idea she had unknowingly caused someone to hate her once again. She was dragged into a trap out of nowhere even though she was innocent.

Just then, she was all focused on Mu Tingfeng. After she was assured that Mu Tingfeng had suspected nothing after hearing her conversation with Mu Chen, she could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

Before she spoke, a cold but domineering voice rose from her side, ‘Stay away from that man in the future. No, I meant, keep a distance from all the men.”

Xia Zhetao was tinkering with the car keys in front of them and his body keeled over sideways uncontrollably when he heard Mu Tingfeng’s words. He thought to himself, ‘In the future, I must keep myself a distance from the former Mrs. President. Otherwise, once the president is unhappy, my salary could be deducted at any time!’

Zhao Youlin was stunned. It was only after a while that she understood the underlying meaning of Mu Tingfeng’s words. She instinctively looked at Mu Tingfeng, and she snorted, “Mu Tingfeng, are you… jealous?”

“I am your boyfriend,” Mu Tingfeng glared at Zhao Youlin and said matter-of-factly.

What he actually meant was, ‘I am your boyfriend, of course, I would be jealous when I see you getting so close with another man!’
