nEven before Lu Xinyi and her cousin arrived at the Amusing Plate Patisserie, Shen Yi and Qiao He had already finished their meeting with a client. Just when they were about to leave the VIP area, Shen Yi saw his wife entered the shop with a woman. He had no idea who the woman was but based on how they talk and interact with each other, the woman was probably close to his wife.

nShen Yi went back to his seat while Qiao He stood behind him and waited for his boss to act and save the young mistress. Wasn’t he going to greet his wife?

nThere was a thin partition between the VIP and regular tables and they could hear what they were talking about while the other party was oblivious about their presence.

nWhen Xuan Shu insulted Lu Xinyi, Shen Yi’s face immediately changed color. He gave a ferocious stare at the old woman. He had not expected that his wife had endured a lot of abuse and disrespect from these people.

nQiao He who was waiting patiently to his boss broke into a cold sweat. This woman had no idea who she’d slandered. Shaming the young mistress in the presence of his boss, was she asking for an early death?-.

nAnd then Gong Yijun and Meng Jiao came into the scene. This was the first time for Shen Yi to see Lu Xinyi’s old flame and ex-best friend.

n“Xinyi, can we talk? Please listen to me.” Gong Yijun said tenderly.

nShen Yi felt a lump on his throat. How dare this man call Xinyi by her name so affectionately? No matter what kind of relationship they had before, Lu Xinyi was now his woman and he would definitely not allow this scumbag to touch her.

n“Don’t touch me.” Lu Xinyi hissed and jerked back. “I might be a fool before but don’t you think it’s highly insulting to try and touch me when I caught you boinking my best friend?”

nHer words came out bitter and harsh, which wasn’t she intended. But it was enough for Gong Yijun to take a full step back from her.

nFeeling cold and a bit angry, Shen Yi put on his shades and strode towards the commotion. He pulled his wife to his side which surprised her. Lu Xinyi was taken aback. What was Shen Yi doing in a place like this?

n“Xinyi, I thought you said you will resign and will come home early.” He then looked at Gong Yijun and Meng Jiao’s direction, his expression changed slightly although it was only Lu Xinyi who had noticed it.

nShe answered blankly, “I was about to go home.”

nMeng Jiao took a good look at the man who suddenly appeared and talked to Lu Xinyi. He looked so dashing and rich. He emanated a presence like a king. The man looked familiar but Meng Jiao couldn’t point out where she’d seen this man before. It seemed that Lu Xinyi knew him intimately as the man had called her by her first name. Lu Xinyi didn’t even bother when the man held her waist.

nDid she find another man too soon? What a slut!

nFeeling extremely envious seeing that Lu Xinyi allowed another man to touch her, Gong Yijun asked her with disbelief, “Xinyi, who is this man? Why are you with him?”

nLu Xinyi grinned as she pressed the side of her face to her husband’s chest.

n“He is my husband.”

nWhat?! Husband? Lu Xinyi got married as soon as she broke up with him? Gong Yijun could only stare in bewilderment as Lu Xinyi murmured something to the man. All of those who had heard Lu Xinyi claimed that it was her husband were astonished. They couldn’t believe what she’d said.

nGong Yijun looked at her and felt confused. He really wanted to be back with Lu Xinyi. He felt a pain in his heart. What kind of joke was this? Was she trying to hurt him? To make him feel jealous?

nBut he knew the Sun family was also trying to marry her off to some rich man which Lu Xinyi kept declining when they were still together. Did that mean that this man was Lu Xinyi’s fiance all along?

nEven Lu Xiulan was surprised to see the man beside her cousin.

n‘Wait. Xinyi said this is her husband so this means…’

nLu Xiulan suddenly chuckled before bursting into a fit of laughter while holding her sides. Now she knew why Lu Xinyi didn’t look heartbroken at all! How could she feel so down and pitiful if she had a husband looking like this? Gong Yijun failed in comparison. It was like comparing an emperor to a mere peasant.
