Chapter 392: The Person in the Brain
Thanks to "Watchman" brother for the 1999 book coins reward. Also, thank you to "Little Cold Wind" brother for the 588 book coins, as well as the rewards from other brothers. Thank you, brothers!
Xia Yan never expected Yang Jiajun would say such words.
She suddenly laughed.
Laughed brilliantly.
She had actually married such a man.
Honestly.
Even when Yang Jiajun demanded her to go... she wasn't as enraged and angry as she is now.
Why did she agree?
Wasn't it just because she feared that Chen Shuo would kill Yang Jiajun?
But in the end, this man could still say such words.
Luckily, the man in the room wasn't Chen Shuo.
Otherwise, she would definitely regret it to death by now.
At this moment, Xia Yan no longer felt sad.
On the contrary, she felt happy having completely seen through Yang Jiajun's true colors.
Yang Jiajun realized he had misspoken and quickly apologized, "Wife, I was wrong, I shouldn't have said that, please forgive me, okay?"
"Forgive? Yang Jiajun, how can I forgive you? Are you still a man?" At this time, there were actually still some people outside the bar, and Xia Yan's voice wasn't low, so many heard her words.
They all cast their gazes toward Xia Yan.
But, Xia Yan seemed as if she didn't see them at all.
Of course, many gazes also turned toward Yang Jiajun.
After all, the last thing a man wants is for a woman to cuckold him.
"What a beast, having such a beautiful wife but willing to let someone else have her!"
"Exactly, beauty, why waste words with this kind of man? Just get a divorce!"
"..."
A ripple of uproar spread among the crowd.
Being pointed at and talked about made Yang Jiajun lose face terribly.
"Xia Yan, I'm just asking you one thing, will you come home with me or not? If you don't come home with me, I'll tell our mom about tonight's incident!"
The "our mom" here actually refers to Xia Yan's mother.
Actually, Yang Jiajun doesn't really want to let go of Xia Yan.
Especially since he still relies on Xia Yan to sort out the loan issue.
He knows, under normal circumstances, it's impossible to win back Xia Yan's heart.
He could only threaten.
Xia Yan is an extremely filial woman.
And her mother is also a traditional and conservative woman.
He believes, this point can definitely threaten Xia Yan!
"You're going to tell my mom?" Sure enough, upon hearing Yang Jiajun's words, Xia Yan's complexion slightly changed.
Her mother is a very traditional woman, who taught her from a young age to remain chaste.
After getting married, she was even more repeatedly admonished.
She must abide by women's virtues.
If her mother knew she was with another man.
This scene was precisely witnessed by Su Chen coming out of the bar.
Su Chen frowned slightly.
He walked over.
Wanting to explain on behalf of Xia Yan.
Otherwise, it would greatly affect Xia Yan's reputation.
Sadly, before Su Chen had the chance to explain, Xia Yan took out her phone and dialed.
"Mom, I want a divorce!" Xia Yan cut straight to the chase.
"What? Why, Xia Yan!" A voice filled with surprise came from the phone.
Xia Yan's face suddenly showed a strange smile, and she said into the phone, word by word: "Because, I've fallen for another man!"
Yang Jiajun was stunned.
He thought he knew Xia Yan very well.
Indeed, he did.
Unfortunately, the Xia Yan of now was no longer the Xia Yan of before.
If it had been before, when Yang Jiajun threatened her with her mother, she might have actually been fooled.
But now, after experiencing that kind of despair on the island, she had understood that in this world, apart from life and death.
Nothing else really mattered.
Xia Yan knew that after what she had done, things between her and Yang Jiajun were over for good.
However, she did not regret it.
After speaking, she even felt a sense of liberation in her heart.
"Beauty, well done!"
"Beauty, I support you!"
"..."
Xia Yan no longer paid attention to Yang Jiajun. She saw Su Chen beside her and directly said, "Su Chen, tonight, you're with me!"
After saying that, she took Su Chen's arm.
The passersby around them all cast envious glances at Su Chen.
This guy, isn't he too lucky?
Just like that, he scored a stunning beauty.
...
A few minutes later, Huadu Bridge.
"If you want to cry, just let it out..." Su Chen sighed lightly, speaking to Xia Yan who was leaning against the river railing beside him, trying to look up at the sky.
There wasn't a single star in the sky.
So, Xia Yan naturally couldn't be looking at stars.
She was just using this as a way to stop her tears from falling.
"Cry? Why should I cry? I'm so happy I can't even handle it!" A stubborn look flashed across Xia Yan's face.
But in the end, she turned around and buried herself in Su Chen's embrace, sobbing softly.
Even the strongest of women, after all, is still a woman.
Su Chen didn't say anything, letting the beautiful woman cry on his chest.
Xia Yan cried for half an hour before her sobs gradually calmed down.
"Ac-actually, I'm not sad because it's over with him... I just can't accept it, why—I married such a scumbag..."
"Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. Xia Yan, don't be too upset."
"Mm, Su Chen, you're right. I shouldn't be upset over a scumbag. Come with me!" Out of the blue, she grabbed Su Chen's hand.
"Where to?"
"Of course, to celebrate."
"Celebrate what?"
"Celebrate my return to being single, of course!"
The two of them arrived at a barbecue stall.
They ordered dozens of skewers.
Then they got two crates of beer.
And started drinking.
In less than half an hour, Xia Yan was drunk.
She hadn't drunk much, perhaps six or seven bottles of beer.
But Xia Yan had a low tolerance to begin with, so she got utterly smashed.
"Su Chen, you might not know, ever since I came back, we've been sleeping separately... Do you know why?"
Listening to Xia Yan's somewhat slurred speech, Su Chen's mouth twitched slightly, thinking to himself, how would I know?
"Xia Yan, to you..." He couldn't continue that conversation, so he just drank.
But Xia Yan stopped drinking, hiccupping as she said, "Because, you see, there's another man in my mind, I feel like if I were with him, it would be a betrayal of that man."
Xia Yan suddenly flashed a charming smile at Su Chen and asked, "Want to know who that man is?"
Actually, with what Xia Yan had said, Su Chen could almost be certain of who the man she was talking about was.
But still, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who is it?"
