Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 308 Good acting_1

Actually, whether it was really useless or not, Xiao Ming didn’t care.

After all, even without the memories of the next twenty years, with the wisdom and means he honed in his last life, he was already more likely to succeed than most people.

What really made him feel depressed, and even a bit afraid, was Lu Lichun’s sudden confession of deep affection, which made him realize something—his wife’s being alive not only completed his soul but also added a conscience to it.

In his past life, Jiang Xue’s body mangled beyond recognition, their unborn child, and the extremely dark three days and nights of torturing Cao Bangxi, turned him into a walking corpse.

Because of this, after getting out of prison he joined the Infinite Society without hesitation, following his teacher’s instructions, and became indiscriminate with women, moving through the crowd of beauties without attachment.

Though he never did anything that provoked universal indignation, he was still involved in the criminal organization and directly or indirectly harmed countless people.

Back then, he only liked the feeling of standing above the clouds and didn’t care about anything else.

But at this moment, he felt guilty toward Lu Lichun.

Because the reason Lu Lichun fell in love with him was that she thought he was the man who understood her the most in this world.

But this "understanding" was the result of cheating with his rebirth memory.

Despite his subjective desire not to want Lu Lichun to fall in love with him, the fact of the matter remained the same.

It felt like he had deceived a woman’s feelings with a lie.

Keep in mind that even when he was a playboy in his previous life, he never tricked women.

Without doing bad things, yet feeling guilty about the unintended consequences was clearly a sentiment only a good person would have.

Damn it, I just spent twenty years as a bad guy; suddenly becoming a "good egg" doesn’t feel right!

Seeing Xiao Ming lying on the chair sighing, Lu Lichun’s eyes quickly turned, and she adopted a look of aggrieved innocence.

"Sir, have I caused you trouble?"

"Yes," Xiao Ming replied without hesitation.

Lu Lichun clenched her hands tightly and bit her lip before asking again, "Then will you... will you despise me because of it?"

Xiao Ming intended to give another affirmative answer, but seeing the woman on the verge of tears, he couldn’t bring himself to do it and heaved a sigh.

"From the perspective of a married man, the answer to your question must be affirmative, at least to avoid many troubles in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, tears started to flow from Lu Lichun’s eyes, leaving a wet trail on her smooth face.

"Let me finish what I was saying!"

Xiao Ming pulled a tissue, his voice dispirited, "But as a friend, as a boss, and as someone you willingly follow, being honest with you is a duty I cannot shirk.

So the truth is, having a woman of your charm and unrestrained nature devoted to me not only doesn’t make me despise you but actually makes me quite smug and vain.

Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Lu Lichun was more than satisfied; her chest was nearly bursting with joy. She puckered her lips to kiss him but was thwarted by the tissue stuck to her face.

"Don’t push your luck," Xiao Ming said irritably, "After all is said and done, I have a wife, and I love my wife. Not despising you doesn’t mean I’ll accept you."

Lu Lichun didn’t move, letting his hand press the tissue against her face.

"You’re leaving the day after tomorrow, and I know you won’t be coming back for a while."

A flicker of compassion rose in Xiao Ming’s heart. He sat up and gently wiped away her tears with the tissue.

"You’re right; whether it’s Ruiye Electronics or the imminent control of Wanhai Investment, I’m planning to leave everything in your hands.

The purpose of having you take over Lingnan Business Association this afternoon is exactly for this reason.

This organization might not be very useful, but it does have influence. If used well, it can also be a decent weapon.

I believe in your ability..."

"You can also trust in Chun’s loyalty," Lu Lichun said, her gaze fiery and resolute.

Xiao Ming chuckled, "That, I believe even more than your ability.

Just remember that you have flaws in your personality, you’re bold, and you tend to be impulsive."

"This is also the biggest reason why you, who are clearly very smart, continue to do foolish things."

Lu Lichun refused to accept this, "To have chosen you, followed you, was that also the result of my impulsiveness? Was it stupid?"

"Following me wasn’t, but falling in love with me was."

Lu Lichun was taken aback; she then hung her head, and without looking, one could feel her heartbreak and sense of grievance.

"You should know that I’m doing this for your own good."

"I don’t want your kind of good!"

The woman almost shouted these words, and the corners of her eyes that had just been dried began to moisten once again.

Xiao Ming shook his head helplessly, "Anyway, if you have any problems with the company’s operations, contact Yu at the headquarters and discuss solutions with her. freewebnoveℓ.com

If you encounter difficulties, or if someone bullies you, you can always call me."

"Then will you come?"

"If necessary, I will."

Lu Lichun finally smiled again, grabbed his hand and pressed it to her face, and said softly, "Actually, I know I don’t have any right to ask you for any promises.

I just hope you won’t forget me too quickly. If you could call me often, or video chat, allowing Chun to see you, I would be content."

Not to mention that she is a daughter from a prominent family and the prospective ex-wife of a big shot, even if she were an ordinary girl, saying such words would be equivalent to lowering herself to the dust.

Of course, from another perspective, this is also a textbook ’green tea bitch’ statement.

Xiao Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at her, not speaking.

After a while, Lu Lichun began to look flustered, her gaze averted.

"What... what’s wrong?"

Xiao Ming’s expression was one of mock amusement, "Nothing, I just realized just now that you’re quite a good actress."

"Act... what acting? I don’t understand what you mean, sir."

"Really don’t understand?"

Lu Lichun was silent for a moment, and with a slight sigh, the sorrowful air about her dissipated, and she giggled coquettishly, "Sir is really something, why did you have to expose me, huh? Doesn’t a girl need to save face?"

"So, a gentleman’s dignity is not important, is that it?"

"Who told you to be a man?"

Lu Lichun hugged his arm and rested her face on his shoulder, smiling radiantly, "You’re clearly already troubled, yet you are willing to coax me with such patience, without showing a hint of annoyance.

I wasn’t wrong; sir, you don’t just understand me, you’re also a very, very gentle man!"

"Just wait and see how gentle I’ll be to you in the future!"

Xiao Ming pushed her away irritably, "Sit tight. If you dare to take liberties with me again, do you believe I’ll slap you?"

Lu Lichun stuck out her tongue and smiled, her eyes curved like crescent moons.

Although the Lu Family was beginning to decline, it was still a clan with hundreds of years of heritage, and Lu Lichun, as the legitimate daughter of the main Lu branch, still dared to behave wildly after marrying a big shot like Guan Qingchang, which proved that she had always known exactly what she wanted.

How could such a woman become a sorrowful Lin Daiyu simply because her love was unrequited?

The bold slut who had tried to seduce Xiao Ming with her lingerie and stockings just yesterday morning was the real her.

Before long, the car came to a stop, Xiaoming looked out the window, then opened the door and got out.

"Sir."

Lu Lichun looked at him very seriously, "Although Chun just used a little trick on you, please believe that every word I said tonight was sincere!"

Xiao Ming’s mouth curved into a smile, and he patted her cheek, "Go back and rest early, you have a divorce to get through tomorrow."
