Be Careful, Scum Dad! Mommy Is Back!-Chapter 83 - : Chasing Wife to the Crematorium
Chapter 83: Chapter 83: Chasing Wife to the Crematorium
The refined man’s words brought a flash of joy for a successful plastic surgery to Liu Xixi’s eyes.
But just as she was about to approach him, she saw him retreat several steps in disgust.
As if she were some repulsive, filthy thing.
“I’m sorry, I mistook you for someone else,” the man said with furrowed brows as he quickly walked away.
As he got into his car, the man suddenly looked back, his suspicious gaze falling on Liu Xixi’s retreating figure.
This woman’s eyes bore a striking ninety percent resemblance to Lu Xining’s.
...
Was it an accident, or was it deliberate?
Those soft, deep blue eyes held little emotion.
“Look into this woman.”
The incident at the airport didn’t leave much of an impression on Liu Xixi’s mind, but it did bolster her confidence.
She had originally wanted to completely transform herself to look exactly like Lu Xining, but the doctor insisted that her skull wasn’t desirable enough.
Even if they were to forcefully copy, they still couldn’t achieve the desired effect.
The only place where she could possibly attain a resemblance to Lu Xining was in her eyes!
So after repairing the skin on her face, Liu Xixi also had several plastic surgeries on her eyes.
Until they reached a ninety percent resemblance to Lu Xining’s almond-shaped eyes.
“Lu Xining, it’s all what you owe me,” Liu Xixi now thought constantly.
At the top floor of the City New Building, one could overlook the most bustling night scene of Jingzhou.
Directly across from it was the Shi’an Group, capable of controlling a significant portion of the country’s economic lifeline.
At this moment, however, the president of the Shi’an Group was looking with a stony expression at the man kneeling on the ground beneath the distant lights and shadows.
“Sister Ning, please, I beg you to let me see Linlin.”
“Without her, I can’t go on living.”
Today, Lu Xining had planned to meet Gong Yunxue here for dinner, but she unexpectedly ran into Jiang Jishu in the elevator.
He was like a rat that had just got a taste of cream, his eyes lighting up at the sight of her.

But no matter what Jiang Jishu said, Lu Xining never gave him the time of day.
Her face was cold, as if she had never met him before, “Move aside.”
Jiang Jishu moved forward on his knees, trying to grab Lu Xining’s sleeve but failed.
He looked down, filled with regret, “Sister Ning, I know I was wrong!”
“Please, for my sister’s sake, give me another chance. I will change, I promise!”
When she heard him mention her late friend, Lu Xining’s eyes darkened, and she took a deep breath, “Jiang Jishu, if your sister were still alive, she would be the first to want to kill you.”
The man’s handsome face turned pale as he instantly understood the deep meaning in her words.
Seeing Lu Xining tangled up with that pretty boy again, Ji Muye’s heart ached even more than the last time.
But he couldn’t control his legs from moving towards her.
The closer he got, the clearer he could hear their conversation.
“I really know I was wrong, please don’t ignore me.”
“Sister Ning, you cared about me too.”
“Do you remember the oil painting you bought for my birthday? It’s still hanging in my living room!”
Jiang Jishu tried to dredge up memories where Lu Xining had treated him like a younger brother.
Little did he know that all her kindness was because of his sister, Jiang Wanqing.
Since she never accepted the gifts of gratitude that Lu Xining bought for her, she had no choice but to give presents to Jiang Jishu to repay her.
Thinking of his sister who passed away too soon, Jiang Jishu’s heart was also heavy.
Before his sister died, he had promised to take good care of Xue Lin and to build a happy and harmonious family with her.
But what was the result?
“Sister Ning left, Xue Lin didn’t want him, and even Lu Xining didn’t want to bother with him.
He tilted his head back, tears slid down, his voice choking and helpless, “Sister Ning, you’re all I have left…”
Thinking of her late friend, a look of realization crossed Lu Xining’s face.
In Ji Muye’s eyes, it probably looked like she’d been successfully “seduced” by Jiang Jishu’s beauty.
At this moment, the kneeling youth’s face was full of regret and panic, his gaze uncertain and uneasy.
His hand seemed to want to grab Lu Xining’s sleeve but dared not reach out, his eyes brimming with tears as he fixedly stared at the woman standing in front of him.
Lu Xining’s beauty was excessively outstanding.
Her appearance in the restaurant had captured the attention of many, and combined with the scene of Jiang Jishu kneeling on the ground, it looked very much like a young man trying to win back the heart of his lover.
“Oh my God! Is this the live version of a wife-chasing funeral pyre?”
“This lady is so cool! So cool! So beautiful! I feel like I’m falling in love!”
“Look quick! The man walking towards them, now that’s truly stunning beauty! The guy kneeling on the ground is at most good-looking, but his looks are so well-matched with that lady’s!”
It was at this time that Ji Muye appeared beside Lu Xining, also entering the eyes of the spectators.
They say a black suit is a man’s battle robe.
Right now, that sentence couldn’t be more apt for Ji Muye.
With his naturally tall and well-proportioned figure, the suit made him look even more superior, radiating an incomparable noble aura.
Ji Muye’s expression was stern, his lips tightly pressed, and as he, in his suit and shoes, faced the disheveled Jiang Jishu kneeling on the ground, the overwhelming oppression made the latter involuntarily want to bow and submit.
He slightly curled his lips, “Mr. Jiang is kneeling quite well, haven’t been making mistakes often, have you?”
Jiang Jishu: “???”
Lu Xining also turned to look at him, not understanding why he had come over.
In Ji Muye’s mind, the door that was pitch black was pushed open by an invisible hand.
The emotions that hit him were at their peak when he saw Jiang Jishu kneeling on the ground and Lu Xining’s face looking stunned.
The usually calm and reserved man publicly displayed his indignation for the first time, his voice filled with contempt and a cold disdain.
“Mr. Jiang just betrayed his childhood friend and sweetheart with whom he grew up, and now he wants to ruin someone else’s wife?”
“When did I ruin…”
Jiang Jishu’s words stopped short when he saw Lu Xining standing beside Ji Muye.
Let’s not forget, he, too, was a reckless madman.
The helplessness of not finding his lover for days and the loss from being rejected by Lu Xining turned into a wild storm, sweeping away the little sanity that was left in his mind.
He actually dared to confront Ji Muye directly, not admitting defeat.
“I remember, Sister Ning divorced Mr. Ji two years ago, didn’t she? I wonder if Mr. Ji is either forgetful or old and can’t remember things—why are you recognizing the wrong wife?”
Ji Muye’s eyes grew even sharper, and he let out a cold, mocking laugh, “That’s still better than someone who drove his girlfriend to death.”
Lu Xining snatched the man’s arm, reprimanding coldly, “Enough.”
She knew that with her strength, she couldn’t possibly pull Ji Muye, so she didn’t try hard, but to her surprise, the man staggered a couple of steps and she indeed managed to pull him aside.
“Do you fancy Jiang Jishu?” Ji Muye’s husky voice was pleasant to the ear, but carried a chill.
Lu Xining glanced at him dismissively, “Making trouble out of nothing.”
She was just there to have a meal with a friend, not expecting to run into acquaintances one after another.
Lu Xining’s gaze turned towards the night scene outside the window, and she happened to see the four huge, luminous characters of “Shi’an Group.”
Only then did she realize.
No wonder she had come to this restaurant just twice, and both times she had run into Ji Muye.
His company was right across the street.
Ji Muye had been watching her the whole time, so he did not miss the reaction in Lu Xining’s eyes—had she also forgotten that his company was opposite the City New Building?
Realizing this, the man felt even more annoyed.
A subtle atmosphere lingered among the three of them.
Just then, the arrival of another man broke the deadlock.”
