My Wife is My Life!-Chapter 303

Ji Qingqing briefly stopped walking as she passed by the study.

Although Lu Liting was indeed a jerk, he was still Lu Lixing’s younger brother. Blood is thicker than water, so in the future, it would be better for her to try to tolerate and forgive him. After all, putting on a bad front wouldn’t be helpful to family unity and harmony.

Furthermore, although being dumped by Shen Weiwei was embarrassing in itself, it wasn’t entirely a bad thing. On the brighter side, he could learn from this experience to improve himself and his ability to perceive others clearly. She, Ji Qingqing, believed that she shouldn’t interfere with his affairs. Other than that, she knew that she must let bygones be bygones.

She only hoped that Lu Lixing could make things clear to Lu Liting so that he could be enlightened and stop bothering her.

Meanwhile, in the study room just a door away, silence had reigned for the past ten minutes. No one seemed to want to start the conversation first as both brothers remained mute.

Lu Liting hung his head down since the moment he entered the study, lost in thought. Lu Lixing had intended to speak seriously to him today, but his heart softened a little upon seeing his brother’s face covered in wounds. He was still his brother after all, so at the very least, this should serve as a sobering wake-up call.

Each of them had something in mind, but neither of them had plans to break the deadlock.

After a long time, Lu Liting finally raised his head, saying, “I broke up with Shen Weiwei.”

Lu Lixing had been aware of this for a very long time. But he also believed that the separation had nothing to do with Lu Liting’s current state.

Lu Lixing’s brows furrowed in response and his eyes narrowed slightly. Clearly displeased, he asked, “A simple breakup made you look like this?”

“Weiwei, she…” Lu Liting struggled to admit that he had once misjudged her and said angrily, “She was lying to me this entire time. She knew that I belonged to the Lu family. After breaking up with her, I reached out to some of my connections in the circle and investigated what Weiwei had done in the entertainment industry over the years… You and Grandfather were right. For resources, she covertly revealed her relationship with me to her company. The incident involving Ji Qingqing was caused by her too.

“She used my name to put pressure on the executives and snatched the endorsements and screenplays which originally belonged to Qingqing. Worse, Meng Xun, her former manager, admitted that it was Shen Weiwei who approached her. She said that as long as she was willing to handle her*, she would give her the position of entertainment director in Sky Entertainment* in the future.”

*T/N: take her in as her artist

*T/N: Tian Yu

Lu Liting laughed at himself and said, “It’s my fault for being blind. Because of Shen Weiwei, I almost ruined Qingqing for life.”

Lu Lixing’s eyes were cold. “I had warned you long ago that Shen Weiwei isn’t a simple person. You used to believe in her, but now you don’t have the courage to bear the consequences of trusting her?”

Lu Liting retorted, “That’s not because of this!”

“If it’s not because of that, what’s causing you to look like this right now?”

Lu Liting’s palms clenched into fists and he loudly rebutted, “The night before yesterday, I went to the bar for a drink. Then, I met Yu Yang and accidentally overheard some words.”

“Yu Yang?” Lu Lixing had no remarkable impressions regarding him, so he only asked, “What did you hear?”

“Yu Yang said that the reason why Qingqing broke up with me in the first place was because… Qingqing’s father was seriously ill and needed money to cure his illness. That’s why she chose to break up with me and stay with Yu Yang.”

Lu Lixing’s frown grew deeper and deeper.

“I didn’t know,” Lu Liting looked panicked and even helpless as he continued. “I genuinely didn’t know that was the reason she broke up with me. I thought she broke up with me for Yu Yang’s money. If I had known… that her father was seriously ill, I wouldn’t have sat idly by. But I don’t understand why she did not tell me.

“Obviously, as long as she told me, I would’ve given her money to help with her father’s medical expenses.”

Lu Lixing gritted his teeth and he threw a cold look at him right then.

However, Lu Liting didn’t seem to notice this as he continued to say, “Later, once I had the time to think things clearly after I first started my business, I realized Qingqing must’ve found out that even though I invested all my money into it, it was constantly failing. Qingqing didn’t want to drag me down and become a burden, so she just chose to break up with me.”

His voice choked up as he finished his remarks and his eyes grew misty.

“I’m the one who should say sorry to Ji Qingqing. If I hadn’t concealed my identity, she wouldn’t have been forced to that point. But in the end, I was the one who hurt her the most and pushed her away.”

Lu Lixing’s eyes were cold and stern, looking directly at Lu Liting. Pressing his gaze, he said in a cold voice, “So what are you trying to do by saying this now? To make up for the mistake you once made? Or do you want to apologize to her and repent?”

Lu Liting was slightly flabbergasted. Subconsciously avoiding Lu Lixing’s gaze, he muttered, “I…”

“Ji Qingqing is now my wife, your sister-in-law. You can choose to apologize and repent. But I have to remind you that there is no regret pill to eat in this world.

“Your sister-in-law has accepted my proposal and the wedding has been set for July. No matter what transpired between you two in the past, by now, you should know clearly in your heart to keep your distance from my fiancée. I don’t want to remind you any further about this.”

Lu Liting painfully replied, “I know that…”

Although he was well aware of how much he had missed out on back then, he was fully aware that Ji Qingqing now obviously saw him as a stranger and at times even found him repulsive.

In the end, time had worn out all the feelings between him and Ji Qingqing.

Unfortunately, no one could turn back time. Nothing could go back to the way it was before.

“Since you know, then I won’t talk to you any further about this topic. Think it over for yourself!” After saying that, Lu Lixing got up and left the study.

And to think that he planned to talk properly and carefully with him…

Lu Lixing sneered, What’s there to talk about?!

It was simply incorrigible for a man of his age to still be unaccountable and not face the consequences of his mistakes.
