My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my sister, and I got married to him in a flash; he went crazy.

After sending the message, Jiang Shutong put away her phone, lowered her head, and walked outside, trying to pretend she hadn't seen Xu Mingze.

Xu Qiaoxin nudged her with her shoulder and exclaimed excitedly, "Shutong, your boyfriend is here! He even brought you flowers! Wow, you've been together for two years and you're still so romantic. I'm so envious..."

Xu Mingze's gaze quickly caught her in the group of people, and he strode towards her.

"Tongtong, I've come to pick you up from get off work..."

Jiang Shutong said coldly and distantly, "Xu Mingze, we've already broken up."

Xu Mingze handed her the bunch of plump, fresh tulips, his voice sincere, "White tulips symbolize pure apology, Tongtong, please forgive me?"

People around couldn't help but stop and look over, their eyes burning with gossip.

"How could someone so handsome and driving a luxury car still get dumped?"

"If I had a boyfriend like that, I would never argue with him!"

"A handsome man and a beautiful woman, they're a perfect match, forgive him..."

Under the intense gaze of everyone, Jiang Shutong expressionlessly reached out and knocked the bouquet of flowers to the ground.

White petals fell one after another.

Her voice was cold and hard. "I'm sorry, but I can't forgive even a little bit."

An uproar immediately erupted around them.

Xu Qiaoxin couldn't help but lean close to Jiang Shutong's ear and whisper, "Shutong, that's enough. Your boyfriend is practically the perfect boyfriend. It's fine if you argue and throw a little tantrum now and then, but don't actually drive him away..."

At the last department dinner, Xu Mingze's attentive and considerate manner towards Jiang Shutong was truly enviable.

Feeling the intense gazes directed at them, Xu Mingze stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. "Tongtong, let's get in the car first and talk, okay?"

He really disliked the feeling of being watched.

Jiang Shutong didn't like it either.

She shook off his hand, left the bustling company entrance, and quickly walked to the roadside to hail a taxi.

Pei Yichen most likely won't come to pick him up.

After all, the two of them had just brought up divorce two days ago.

Xu Mingze ignored the bouquet of flowers scattered on the ground and quickly chased after her. "Tongtong, I know you're angry, but you're no saint, everyone makes mistakes. Can't you give me another chance...?"

"We've been together for two years, and I know you still love me..."

Although Jiang Shutong is independent and not clingy, he can still feel that the woman loves him.

When he had a fever last time, Jiang Shutong stayed by his side without sleep and worked through the night to cool him down.

The worry in her eyes was genuine.

She would carefully prepare a gift for him every year on his birthday.

Not to mention, she will also take care of his parents in his place.

She managed to win over her parents so much that they doted on her even more than their own son.

Seeing that Jiang Shutong ignored him and was only looking down at her phone, he lost his patience, grabbed her shoulders, and was about to kiss her forcefully.

He had always treated Jiang Shutong with great gentlemanly manners during the two years they had been together.

But someone told him that a man should take the initiative.

He made a mistake in the past, and perhaps that's why he's never been able to win Jiang Shutong's heart.

Therefore, he no longer wants to restrain himself.

Faced with the man's sudden forceful kiss, Jiang Shutong abruptly lowered her waist and shoulders, grabbed his wrist with her left hand, and kicked him with her right foot.

She worked part-time at a taekwondo gym for two years during college, where she learned a few self-defense techniques.

Xu Mingze let go in pain.

The next second, the woman slapped him across the face.

I did love you, but you didn't cherish it.

Jiang Shutong's eyes fell on the message sent by Pei Yichen as her WeChat notification sounded.

She left with the words, "My husband is here to pick me up."

After Jiang Shutong finished speaking, she walked directly to the Volkswagen that had been parked on the side of the road at some point, opened the passenger door, and got in.

As the car door closed, the car quickly drove away.

Xu Mingze stood there stunned for a moment.

Husband?

Ha, that's clearly a ride-hailing driver.

He had just caught a glimpse of her phone screen showing that she had opened a ride-hailing app.

He naturally didn't believe Jiang Shutong's nonsense about being married.

After all, they had only broken up a few days ago. Where was Jiang Shutong going to find a man to marry?

She's such a traditional and conservative woman; how could she possibly get married so easily without dating for several years?

Inside a Volkswagen.

"Mr. Pei, thank you for coming to pick me up." She thanked him sincerely.

Jiang Shutong never expected that her husband would actually be willing to pick her up from get off work.

They arrived in just a few minutes.

However, Boyu Group is indeed located near this business district, just a few minutes' drive away.

The man, a tall man of 1.88 meters, sat in the driver's seat, exuding an air of noble superiority that seemed somewhat out of place in this ordinary, cramped Volkswagen.

Pei Yichen didn't say anything, only asking, "Miss Jiang, are you still determined to get a divorce?"

Jiang Shutong felt a lingering fear when she thought about how she almost lost her virginity to a bald, pot-bellied, lecherous old man last night.

She shook her head vigorously, "I won't leave."

She paused, then asked, "Does your promise to let me move into your house still stand?"

"certainly."

Pei Yichen had just witnessed her argument with her ex-boyfriend and assumed that she agreed to continue the marriage in order to get rid of her ex-boyfriend's entanglement.

"So when are you moving in with me?"

"Now." She couldn't wait a moment longer.

After Pei Yichen drove to the entrance of Jiang's residential area, Jiang Shutong told him to wait downstairs.

They haven't reached the point of meeting each other's parents yet; she's afraid her mother will go crazy and kick him out.

She wasn't familiar with Pei Yichen yet, and Jiang Shutong was afraid of scaring away her cheap husband.

Upon learning that her daughter was moving out, Liu Guixiang naturally launched into a tirade of abuse and a fit of rage.

"We raised you with so much care and hardship, and now that you're all grown up and independent, you want to move out and not care about your father and me, right?"

Jiang Shutong didn't stop packing her luggage for a moment. "I'm not moving out. Are you going to shove some old man into my room again?"

At this point, Liu Guixiang fell silent instantly.

Knowing she couldn't stop her daughter from moving out, she could only say, "Fine, you can move out, but you still have to pay the household bills..."

After all, the whole family depends on Jiang Shutong's salary to support them.

Liu Guixiang used to do cleaning jobs, but ever since Jiang Shutong graduated and started working, she has been complaining of aches and pains and saying she can't do it anymore.

Jiang Shutong felt sorry for her mother, who was already old and still had to go out to work, so she voluntarily handed over her salary to support the family.

But now, she doesn't want to support this ungrateful family anymore.

Jiang Shutong picked up her packed suitcase and said, "You can go find that rich husband, Xu Mingze."

She used to stop Xu Mingze from spending money on her family.

From then on, she stopped stopping them.

Let Xu Mingze take her place and continue to support this large family.

This is his good fortune.

The old residential area has no elevator.

On the fifth floor, Jiang Shutong carefully carried her suitcase and walked down the stairs step by step.

The phone rang at that moment, and Pei Yichen's name appeared on the screen.

She took her hand away to answer the call and pressed the speakerphone button. "Mr. Pei, please wait a few more minutes. I'll be there soon."

Inside the car, Pei Yichen heard a woman's panting voice on the phone and asked, "Do you need any help?"

A woman's voice came from the other end of the line, "No need..."

Just as Pei Yichen was about to hang up, he heard a woman scream on the other end of the line, followed by the sound of a suitcase rolling off.

The man frowned and asked, "Jiang Shutong, are you alright?"

After a series of banging sounds, the other end of the phone went silent.

After a long while, a woman's pained voice came through the phone, "I'm... okay... I think I twisted my ankle."
