Chapter 222 Feel the Pain
Chapter 222 Feel the Pain
I looked at him with a complicated expression. Jiang Yichen's acting skills have always been very good; I had witnessed them firsthand at the hospital.
No matter how closely I looked at it, I couldn't see a single falsehood in those words.
"What's wrong, Momo?"
Jiang Yichen was completely bewildered by my stare.
My mind began to replay our past together, fragments flashing through my mind. It turns out we have so many memories together.
When I came to my senses again, half an hour had passed.
The restaurant staff started whispering amongst themselves, seemingly betting on whether I would agree.
I looked at Jiang Yichen kneeling on the ground. He showed no impatience whatsoever. Instead, his gaze softened. When he saw me looking at him, he smiled and said, "Are you worried about Lin Nan? To be honest, if it weren't for her guidance today, I, who have no romantic sense, would never have thought of confessing to you."
Upon hearing his explanation, I quickly shook my head.
"No, I just..."
"Just what?"
"I just don't understand what you're trying to do? After the divorce, you made things difficult for me and spoke harshly to me. I really can't believe you would like me."
As I spoke, my face turned red.
The phrase "Take care of me" came to mind again, and my face started burning up again.
"So that's why." Jiang Yichen chuckled, taking advantage of his height to move closer to me. "Momo, do you really not realize that I'm insanely jealous every time those stinky men get close to you?"
His voice was aggressive, as if I were already in his grasp and there was no way I could escape.
"Gu Mo, my feelings for you have never changed since the day we got married. Do you understand my feelings?"
I looked into his eyes, and they burned so intensely they seemed to want to set me on fire.
Some of the more perceptive employees have already started to stir things up, and I'm willing to believe him this once.
"Jiang Yichen, I do."
The cool ring was put back on my ring finger.
Before I could even feel the temperature, a pair of large, hot hands enveloped me tightly.
It's like a lost treasure that has been found again.
I used to scoff at the symbol of Mrs. Jiang on my finger, but now, wearing it again, I feel a lingering sense of emotion.
"Momo." Jiang Yichen's voice suddenly interrupted me.
I looked at him in confusion. He seemed a little embarrassed and lowered his voice awkwardly, saying, "Help me up, I... can't get up."
Lin Nan was right about one thing: Jiang Yichen really has no romantic side.
When we returned to the Jiang family home, Grandma had also come back.
I don't know where she heard about my argument with the old lady this morning, but she dragged me aside and gave her a good scolding.
I glanced at Jiang Yichen, who was standing aside, seemingly unconcerned, and understood.
"Alright, Grandma, Momo is pregnant, she should rest early."
Jiang Yichen pulled me up and shielded me behind him.
Grandma spotted the ring on my ring finger immediately, but smiled and didn't point it out. "Oh dear, Grandma isn't going to eat my granddaughter-in-law, is she? Alright, alright, this old body of mine needs to go back and rest now. You all should go ahead."
Jiang Yichen was always composed, but I could still feel his excited strides. The heat from his palms seemed to surge through his entire body.
As soon as we entered the master bedroom, he pinned me against the doorway, lifted both my hands above my head with one hand, and forced me to straighten my chest, which made me feel uncomfortable.
"Jiang Yichen, what are you doing?"
"Momo, we've eaten, and we've confessed our love, isn't it time you showed me some love?"
"You...you shameless!" My face flushed red instantly. "I...I'm pregnant!"
Jiang Yichen's face was pale, as if he was suppressing great pain. Like a child, he exerted himself so forcefully that I could feel his discomfort.
I was already embarrassed, and now I wanted to lower my head even further.
Jiang Yichen, however, wouldn't let me have my way. He lifted my head, and the moment our lips met, an electric current swept through every part of my body.
So this is what a loving kiss is like: no coercion, no pain, just an overwhelming sense of self-control.
This is the first time I've ever accepted a kiss because I love someone.
We struggled around the house for a long time, but unfortunately, I was too exhausted and had to give up prematurely.
He held me in his arms; how wonderful it would be if time could stand still at that moment.
"Tomorrow I will hold another press conference. Momo, I want to tell the whole world that you are my woman, Jiang Yichen's woman."
I was a bit tired, and while my left ear was listening to him, my right ear started to disagree. As a result, I didn't remember a single word and drifted off to sleep.
Jiang Yichen pulled her out of bed the next day.
"Get up quickly, the press conference is still an hour away."
"What press conference?" I muttered.
Jiang Yichen's kisses moved down little by little, from my forehead to my mouth, and then to my neck, making me feel ticklish and clearing my mind.
“You said yes last night, so I had Lin Nan hold a press conference overnight.”
"what?"
I opened my eyes and then remembered that I seemed to have agreed when I was half asleep last night.
There was no other way but to wash up and get out of bed. It took almost an hour to finish washing up, so you can imagine how miserable I was.
Jiang Yichen is simply inhuman!
Even as I walked into the conference room, I was still cursing him in my mind.
Because of washing up, we were almost half an hour late. Jiang Yichen didn't waste any more words and immediately started hitting the nail on the head.
"Gu Mo and I have remarried. The wedding is approaching. If I see any more rumors about us in the media, I can expect a lawyer's letter from the Jiang family."
On the surface, I remained calm, nestled happily in Jiang Yichen's arms like a little woman, but in my heart, I was cursing him to death.
This Jiang Yichen, he can get a divorce on a whim and remarry on a whim, leaving me with absolutely no sense of involvement. It's as if he owns the Civil Affairs Bureau. I can only keep this score in mind for now and settle it later!
"President Jiang recently announced that his fiancée is Miss Lin Nan. Won't this fickle and despicable behavior hurt Miss Lin's feelings?"
These words caused a stir in the room.
"I didn't even know I'd be sad. Are you a tapeworm in my stomach?"
Lin Nan suddenly appeared behind Jiang Yichen and me at some point. She was dressed in a clean and neat business suit and was making a dry joke with a straight face.
“Gu Mo is one of my employees. When I first met her, I was incredibly stupid. As one of the people in charge of Jiang's Group, I felt that Gu Mo was not a good match for President Jiang, which is why I deliberately tried to obstruct her. But now it seems that I was wrong. Ms. Gu, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to you.”
When Lin Nan bowed deeply to me, I was somewhat dazed.
"They're all lying! Gu Mo is my girlfriend, and she's pregnant with my child!"
A voice suddenly rang out at the door, breaking the brief silence.
Everyone looked towards the doorway, and the person who entered was none other than Zhao Ning!
