Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce-Chapter 902 - 901: Don’t Touch Xiaxia’s Child (21)

The injury on Ling Yunshu’s face from that day had faded over half a month, with the finger marks gone, but the bruise on her forehead from hitting it was still slightly visible. She had no choice but to put on heavy makeup, applying several layers of concealer to cover the wound.

Unable to buy a new dress that day and with the injury preventing her from going out previously, she could only wear an old dress. As she donned it, she looked at herself in the mirror, her gaze gradually turning gloomy.

Damn Ling Chuxia! 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Every time she recalled the events of that day, it was as if her entire being was being roasted in a hot pan, unable to find any peace.

She had been waiting daily for today to come, and finally, it arrived as she had hoped.

Ling Chuxia, the pain I suffered that day... no, I should say, the pain she and Shi Che have caused me from the past to the present, I will demand it back from her all at once!

Thinking about what was about to happen at the banquet, Ling Yunshu’s mood suddenly brightened. The gloom in her eyes dissipated, and a smile formed on her lips. But to look at that smile, it was chilling.

Once she was dressed properly, she stood up and left the room, immediately seeing Xiao Chen sitting on the sofa.

He was still in his home attire, showing no intention of changing into formal wear.

Ling Yunshu cast a cold glance at him and walked past him without looking directly at him.

That day, she had tried every possible gentle and pitiful tactic on him, watching as he began to sway, but unexpectedly, when she mentioned that Ling Chuxia was pregnant, he reverted to his former self in an instant.

He was unwilling to help her any further and did not want her to interfere between Shi Che and Ling Chuxia.

Ling Yunshu was almost incredulous at that moment, glaring at him with her finger pointed at her scarred face, sharply questioning, "Didn’t you see how Ling Chuxia treated me? How can you expect me to let her go?"

Yet, Xiao Chen remained emotionless, merely replying lightly, "Consider it as you owing Xiaxia for the child she lost."

This statement made Ling Yunshu completely explode!

In her heart, she didn’t believe she was responsible for Ling Chuxia’s child’s death; the child was lost because Ling Chuxia fell, meaning it was fate, unrelated to her.

Moreover, Ling Chuxia had taken so much from her; a child wasn’t enough to repay that. Why was she now being told that she owed her?

That day, they parted on bad terms, and since then, Ling Yunshu had been cold towards him, barely speaking a word.

However, don’t think that without Xiao Chen’s help, she couldn’t achieve anything. At worst, she’d go down with Ling Chuxia. After all, Ling Chuxia had better not think she’d have it easy.

Of course, she wasn’t going to reveal her plans to Xiao Chen. Since he wasn’t on her side, he was her enemy.

As she passed by him, Ling Yunshu walked tall and proud, and Xiao Chen suddenly spoke, "Yun Shu."

Though Ling Yunshu was reluctant to respond, she paused at her steps. After all, if Xiao Chen had changed his mind, it would still be beneficial for her.

Xiao Chen raised his eyes, looking at Ling Yunshu in her white evening gown. She had regained her elegant and beautiful appearance, but her heart had already been twisted by hatred.

Xiao Chen sighed softly in his heart, "Don’t go to Aunt’s birthday party tonight, okay?"
