Chapter 68: 068: Used you as an excuse
As for Zhan Lichuan, this marriage only happened because it was prompted by Master Zhan. He just passively accepted it. As far as he was concerned, he didn’t want to burden anyone . With his handicapped body, it would be imporrisble for him to have any relationship with anyone. Plus, he had already investigated where Jing Qian went this morning, and roughly knew what happened to her.
He totally agreed with what Jing Qian did. That man did not deserve a girl like her.
Just as they were happily chatting, Jing Qian’s phone rang again.
When she saw who it was, her brows subconsciously frowned.
Her parents had already passed away when she was five, but with the memories that she had of them, she would always rate them 5 stars.
After her parents died, she used the money that they left for her, and with some hard work, she turned herself into a rich, world-famous woman.
Therefore, for her, the word ‘parents’ always brought her warmth.
However, in the memories of the previous owner, her family did not bring her such sweet memories.
Since they were kids, Jing Qian had to give in to her sister all the time. If there was a conflict of interest between both the sisters, her parents would always choose Jing Lu’s side without any hesitation.
“Hello,” Jing Qian picked up the call.
“Where are you?”
This was Mother Jing. Her voice was stern, and it felt much like an interrogation.
“Home.”
Jing Qian’s answer gave Mother Jing a huge shock, but then she realized that the ‘home’ that she was referring to was the Zhan family, not the Jing family.
“Come home tonight,” Mother Jing commanded.
“I’m busy.”
Jing Qian’s answer was short and strong.
“You’re busy?” Mother Jing raised her voice and questioned her, “You’re a Young Mistress in the Zhan family. You don’t even have to clean the house. What would you be busy with?”
“Chatting with my husband.”
Zhan Lichuan was lying on the bed. His eyes, which were originally motionless and as dark as obsidian, suddenly moved when he heard these words.
It was like a ripple rising from the depths of a lake. There were no obvious lines that formed on the surface, but beneath it, there were numerous waves forming.
This was the first time anyone had addressed him in this way.
He always felt that this marriage wouldn’t affect him, and it wouldn’t change him, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that something had changed.
This was a peculiar feeling.
The other side of the call was silent, and Mother Jing said with dissatisfaction, “You weren’t sold to the family, you were married into the Zhan family. Why should they be bothered if you come back to your own family? I don’t care. You must come home for dinner tonight.”
Jing Qian was prepared to retaliate towards her, and just as she opened her mouth, the phone call ended.
Jing Qian was speechless.
This was the first time in history that someone had hung up on her!!
“You can go back whenever you want. Your mother was right. You weren’t sold to the family, you married into the Zhan family. I don’t need you to stay just to talk to me.”
“I know. I was just using you to fool her.”
This time, it was Zhan Lichuan who was speechless.
If he remembered it correctly, this girl only agreed to marry him because of her family, right?
In order to bring fortune to her family, she married a paralysed man. In order to provide her fiancé with more resources, she agreed to be married to a quadriplegic. But now that she had already broken the engagement with her fiancé, she was still using him as an excuse. She didn’t even want to return home.
What was his dear wife up to?
