A Beloved Wife in Marriage
Jiang Yanshen, Do You Love Me?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
At the Violet Wedding Dress Shop.
âDirector Jiang, these are the latest wedding dresses that were flown over from Paris overnight according to your request. Every piece was personally designed by a top master. It hasnât been announced to the public yet.â The wedding consultant stood beside Jiang Yanshen and was as respectful as if she was serving the Emperor.
Jiang Yanshen hummed indifferently. His gaze swept across the wedding dress and finally locked onto Lin Qingqianâs face. âPick something you like.â
Lin Qingqian sat there without moving. She did not even look at the wedding dresses that were worth tens of millions. Instead, she said with a cold expression, âWhat is the meaning of this?â
Jiang Yanshen said, âWeâll hold a wedding in half a month. You can hold the wedding anywhere you want. Lu Yuan will arrange everything.â
Lu Yuan revealed an awkward but polite smile. He didnât know what was wrong with Director Jiang last night. He suddenly said that he wanted to hold a wedding in half a month.
If not for the fact that he said that the time was too tight, Director Jiang would probably have gone ahead with the wedding in a week.
Lin Qingqian was not as happy as Jiang Yanshen had expected. She grabbed his arm and sighed softly, âAh Yan, Ah Yan.â Then, she stood up and left.
Jiang Yanshen frowned and stood up to hold her slender wrist. âWhere are you going?â
Lin Qingqian didnât know where she got the strength from, but she shook off his hand and turned to look at him. She was so angry that her chest was heaving.
âJiang Yanshen, I want a divorce, not a wedding!â She gritted her teeth and said, âIâm not going to have a wedding with you!!â
Jiang Yanshenâs expression darkened.
When Lu Yuan saw that the atmosphere was not right, he immediately gave the wedding consultant a look and the two of them tactfully left.
âLin Qingqian, how long are you going to cause trouble?â Jiang Yanshenâs thin lips twitched slightly, and his cold voice contained anger.
âHeh!â Lin Qingqian laughed in anger. âJiang Yanshen, do you still think that Iâm playing hard to get?â
Jiang Yanshen frowned coldly as his dark eyes stared at her plain face. It was only at this moment that he was finally sure that Lin Qingqian really wanted a divorce.
But she had proposed a divorce without warning or reason.
âWhy?â Even Jiang Yanshen, who had always felt that other peopleâs thoughts were not important, could not help but ask.
Lin Qingqian did not answer and asked instead, âJiang Yanshen, do you love me?â
Jiang Yanshen fell silent.
Love?
In the past 28 years, he had never known what âloveâ was!
Father Jiang had died early, and Mother Jiang was busy doing beauty shopping and playing mahjong every day. The Old Madam had only taught him how to survive in this world filled with wolves, tigers, and leopards.
âJiang Yanshen, youâve never loved me. You donât even like me. If I become lost in a crowd, Iâm afraid you wonât even be able to recognize me.â Lin Qingqian looked straight at him as she said this. She didnât even have the intention to cry anymore.
Jiang Yanshenâs expression was calm, but his tense jawline betrayed his unhappy emotions. âYou loved me, so I had to marry you. Now that you want a divorce, I have to agree to it?â
He paused for a moment, his thin lips filled with mockery. âLin Qingqian, do you think that itâs so easy to get rid of me, Jiang Yanshen?â
Lin Qingqian held her breath. Of course, she knew that Jiang Yanshen had never been an easy person to dismiss. Otherwise, how could he become a legend in Lan City?
âI know that Grandma had lied to you back then by pretending to be sick. Itâs also my fault for not telling you out of selfishness. But isnât three years enough to compensate for this mistake?â
