His rebirth and early escape caused him to miss the rescue team his mother sent. Was fate playing a cruel joke on him?!
Even Su Chengjing, who had been forcing himself to calm down after returning, couldn't help but doubt himself, and his expression became dazed.
It wasn't until after dinner, when Lin Xiwen urged him to go back and rest, that he snapped out of his daze and followed his memory toward his own courtyard.
But as Ye Jin watched Su Chengjing's retreating figure, she found herself hesitant to take another step.
After awakening, she could no longer face Su Chengjing with the same indifference as before.
However, she quickly composed herself. Su Chengjing was good-looking and had a good character; she wouldn't be at a disadvantage!
Besides, if he really did meet his true love on his way back, he would probably be more afraid of what might happen than I am!
With that in mind, Ye Jin followed them into their courtyard without further hesitation.

Even when Su Chengjing wasn't around, Lin Xiwen always had people prepare new clothes from various brands suitable for Su Chengjing Su Chengjing, filling his wardrobe to the brim.
Their bedroom features a double bathroom design, allowing them to shower and bathe simultaneously without disturbing each other.
When Ye Jin finished washing up and came out, she saw Su Chengjing, who had shaved, washed up, and returned to his usual radiant appearance.
The wind and sun of the past six months had not diminished his handsomeness; on the contrary, they had made his muscles under his fitted pajamas even more defined, and his features more sculpted. In fact, the hardships he had endured over the past six months had made him look even more masculine than before.
Ye Jin couldn't help but whistle in her heart.
[Waaaaah, my cheap husband is really good-looking! Those features, those muscles—no wonder I agreed to marry him without much thought. It's just a pity I can't look at him for long.]
Su Chengjing paused, his ears involuntarily turning red. Ye Jin and he used to be so respectful to each other; how could she be so wild inside? And why was she so convinced she had found true love?
To avoid Ye Jin's intense gaze, he coughed lightly, "It's getting late, let's go to sleep."
After saying that, he got into bed first, and very consciously only occupied a small part of the bed.
Seeing this, Ye Jin inwardly complained, feeling both relieved and a little sad that she herself didn't even realize.
[Ha, so this scoundrel is going to remain chaste for another woman. Is he so afraid of me praising her? But that's fine, I don't even need him!]
She quickly got into bed and occupied the other side of the large bed.
The king-size bed was big enough, and the two of them naturally each occupied one side, so they couldn't touch each other.
Ye Jin thought Su Chengjing's sudden return would cause her to have a lot of thoughts and be unable to sleep. However, she only scrolled through her phone for half an hour before falling asleep.
Meanwhile, Su Chengjing, who usually slept very well, couldn't fall asleep at all. At first, he was disturbed by Ye Jin's gossipy posts.
Unable to fall asleep anytime soon, he began to review the day's events. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. When Ye Jin 'Ye Jin inner voice gradually subsided and he heard her even breathing, he realized he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
Chapter 35
Although the two were quite a distance apart and had no contact whatsoever, Su Chengjing felt that Ye Jin's sweet but not cloying fragrance lingered around his nose.
Then he couldn't sleep at all, and his mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts.
Especially when he recalled Ye Jin's heartfelt words that he had heard today, he was speechless at her inexplicable belief that he had true love.
This is utterly slander against him!
He desperately wanted to refute her directly, but those were Ye Jin's true feelings; she hadn't uttered a word, so how could he refute her?
Su Chengjing's mind kept replaying the events of the day, but perhaps because so many things had happened, his mind gradually became hazy, and he fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiwen, lying in another courtyard, was also "eavesdropping" on Ye Jin's inner thoughts.
She was both afraid of hearing things that were inappropriate for others to hear, and afraid of not hearing them at all.
After Ye Jin's thoughts gradually faded away, and Lin Xiwen was certain there would be no further developments, she couldn't help but sigh. It seemed the young couple's relationship wouldn't improve anytime soon.
How could her son be so stupid! He hasn't seen his wife in almost half a year and hasn't even made a move!
Or did he injure himself on his way back, or did he really have someone else outside?!
Thinking of this, Lin Xiwen could no longer sleep. She immediately took out her phone and contacted a doctor to arrange a physical examination for Su Chengjing. Then she contacted a private investigator to investigate whether Su Chengjing was keeping a mistress outside.
If there's a health problem, it's fine if it can be cured. But if it can't be cured, she can't keep such a good girl like Ye Jin around. She will arrange for Ye Jin and her son to divorce peacefully.
However, if Su Chengjing has someone else outside, then he shouldn't blame me for putting family aside for the greater good.

Ye Jin had no idea that her feelings had kept Su Chengjing tossing and turning for a long time. The next day, she got up refreshed and, after breakfast, was full of energy and ready to go to work.
Although her cheap husband was about to cheat on her, his return should completely stabilize the situation at the Su Group. With one less ticking time bomb to worry about, she could finally focus on her work.
As for Su Chengjing's "keeping a mistress in a golden house," Ye Jin will not bring it up herself. She will play the role of the "betrayed one," waiting for Su Chengjing to bring it up, and then morally blackmail him into giving her a large breakup fee.
Su Chengjing sneered inwardly upon hearing Ye Jin's plan.
Oh, I'm really sorry, but I don't have any other women outside of my relationship. You can't morally blackmail me into giving you a large breakup fee.
