Chapter 658 Husband Pressure
Jiang Ciyou sat on the sofa in the apartment, holding a cup of cold coffee in her hands, staring at the bustling city night scene outside the window with empty eyes, but her heart was filled with entanglement and confusion. All the recent events kept flashing in her mind like a revolving lantern, Lu Jingchen's affectionate eyes, the dangerous atmosphere brought by the mysterious organization, her bestie's earnest advice, and the memories of her past with her husband, these scenes intertwined together, making her feel exhausted.
At this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang rapidly, breaking the silence in the house. Jiang Ciyou was slightly startled, put down the coffee cup in her hand, stood up and walked to the door. She looked out through the peephole and saw the familiar yet unfamiliar face - her husband. Jiang Ciyou frowned instantly, and a complex emotion surged in her heart, with anger and a hint of indescribable panic. She took a deep breath and slowly opened the door.
The husband stood at the door, wearing an expensive suit and his hair was combed meticulously, but his eyes revealed an eagerness and madness. He didn't wait for Jiang Ciyou to speak, and walked straight into the house, as if this was still his home. Jiang Ciyou looked at him coldly, folded his hands in front of his chest, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
The husband turned around and looked at Jiang Ciyou with a hypocritical smile on his face: "Ciyou, I miss you. I have had a hard time recently. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me." Jiang Ciyou snorted coldly: "Do you think it is meaningful for you to say this now? When you eloped with that woman, did you ever think about my feelings?"
The husband's face changed slightly, but he quickly regained his flattering expression: "Ciyou, that's all in the past. I have severed ties with her, and now I understand that you are the only one I truly love. Let's start over, okay?" Jiang Ciyou's eyes flashed with sarcasm: "Do you think I will believe you?"
The husband seemed to have expected her answer. He took out a document from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Ciyou: "Ciyou, take a look at this. This is some of my recent business achievements. I have reached cooperation intentions with some large companies. As long as you come back to me, we can live a rich life together. I can give you everything you want."
Jiang Ciyou didn't reach out to take the document. She just looked at her husband calmly: "I have never regarded material things as important. Do you think you can win me back with these things?" A trace of anger flashed in her husband's eyes, but he still suppressed his emotions and continued: "Ciyou, don't force me. You know, I still have a certain influence in this circle. If you don't come back to me, I will ruin your reputation. I can also let everyone know about your affair with that pretty boy. Do you think you can still gain a foothold in this city by then?"
Jiang Ciyou was filled with anger. She took a step forward and looked into her husband's eyes: "How can you be so shameless? You betrayed me, and now you have the nerve to threaten me?" Her husband smiled disapprovingly: "This is reality, Ciyou. You'd better think carefully, do you want to be with that unknown Lu Jingchen, or do you want to come back to me and keep everything you have now."
Jiang Ciyou was very angry, but she also knew that she couldn't compromise easily. She remembered how good Lu Jingchen was to her, and those warm moments gave her the courage to persevere. She took a deep breath and tried to keep her voice calm: "I won't be intimidated by your threats. I have nothing to do with you anymore, I will go my own way, no matter what you do."
The husband looked at Jiang Ciyou's determined eyes and became even more angry: "Okay, since you don't want to accept my toast, you'll have to drink a penalty. Don't blame me for being rude." After saying that, he turned around and strode out of the apartment, closing the door heavily.
Jiang Ciyou looked at the closed door, her body trembling slightly. She knew that her husband would not let her go easily, and the days ahead would probably be even more difficult. But her eyes revealed an unprecedented firmness. She was ready to face everything, and for her own happiness, she would not back down.
Back on the sofa, Jiang Ciyou picked up her phone and wanted to call Lu Jingchen to tell him what had just happened. But her fingers hesitated on the screen and finally put down the phone. She knew that Lu Jingchen also had his own things to deal with now, and she didn't want him to worry. Moreover, she also needed some time to digest these emotions alone and think about what to do next.
Jiang Ciyou closed her eyes and leaned back on the sofa, the image of Lu Jingchen reappearing in her mind. She knew that her feelings for Lu Jingchen were real, and she didn't want to give up this relationship because of her husband's threats. But at the same time, she also clearly realized that the road ahead was full of unknowns and dangers, not only her husband's revenge, but also the threat of that mysterious organization.
She recalled the pain and despair she had felt after being betrayed by her husband. That feeling was unforgettable. She didn't want to go back to the life she had in the past. She longed for true love and happiness. The appearance of Lu Jingchen was like a ray of light in the darkness, illuminating her world. Although their relationship had gone through many twists and turns, Jiang Ciyou believed that as long as they loved and trusted each other, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.
However, the pressure of reality is like a mountain, which makes her feel a little breathless. She doesn't know what means her husband will take to deal with her, nor does she know what dangerous actions the mysterious organization will take. She began to think about her future. Does she have enough ability to deal with these challenges? Can she protect herself and Lu Jingchen?
Jiang Ciyou's heart is full of contradictions and entanglements. On the one hand, her feelings for Lu Jingchen make her want to be with him regardless of everything; on the other hand, the reality makes her feel a little powerless. She doesn't know how to choose in order to protect herself and not lose Lu Jingchen.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Jiang Ciyou was still sitting on the sofa, immersed in her own thoughts. The night outside the window was getting darker and darker, and the hustle and bustle of the city gradually subsided, but her heart was still restless. She knew that this would be a long and difficult night, and she had to find a ray of light in this darkness and find her own direction.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Ciyou slowly opened her eyes, revealing a glimmer of determination. She decided not to sit and wait for death anymore, she would take the initiative to face these problems. She would work with Lu Jingchen to find a solution to the problem, and she would not give up no matter how rough the road ahead was.
Jiang Ciyou stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the night sky outside. She knew that tomorrow would be a new day, and she would embark on a new journey. She took a deep breath, as if to give herself strength, then turned and walked towards the bedroom, ready to meet the upcoming challenges.
In the bedroom, Jiang Ciyou lay on the bed, but tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Various images kept appearing in her mind, including the sweet time she spent with Lu Jingchen, the ugly face of her husband when he threatened her, and the fear and anxiety brought by the mysterious organization. These images intertwined, making her mood unable to calm down for a long time.
She began to recall every detail of her acquaintance with Lu Jingchen. From their initial encounter in the bar to the happy times they spent together later, Lu Jingchen's gentleness, thoughtfulness and affection made her feel warmth she had never felt before. He always appeared when she needed him most, giving her support and encouragement, allowing her to gradually get out of the shadow of being betrayed by her husband.
However, the situation has become so complicated now. Her husband's return and threats have thrown her life into chaos. She doesn't know how to deal with her husband's revenge, nor does she know how to protect Lu Jingchen from harm. She is worried that her choice will bring trouble to Lu Jingchen, after all, he has paid too much for herself.
Jiang Ciyou's heart was filled with guilt and uneasiness. She felt that she shouldn't have involved Lu Jingchen in these troubles, but at the same time, she couldn't give up her feelings for him. She knew that Lu Jingchen was sincere to her, and she loved him deeply. But this love seemed so fragile and vulnerable in the face of the pressure of reality.
She remembered her best friend's advice that love is important, but she also has to consider her future and safety. Her best friend's words are not unreasonable, but Jiang Ciyou can't just give up Lu Jingchen. She knows that if she misses Lu Jingchen, she may regret it for the rest of her life.
In the darkness, Jiang Ciyou silently shed tears. She felt so helpless and confused, as if she was in a huge whirlpool and couldn't extricate herself. But she also knew that crying would not solve the problem, and she had to be strong, for herself and for Lu Jingchen.
Jiang Ciyou wiped away her tears, sat up and leaned against the head of the bed. She began to think about how to deal with her husband's threats. She couldn't just sit there and wait for death, letting her husband manipulate her. She had to find a way to protect herself and Lu Jingchen, and at the same time expose her husband's ugly behavior and make him pay for what he did.
She thought of her connections and resources in the business circle, and maybe she could use them to fight against her husband. She decided to take action tomorrow and contact some reliable friends to seek their help and support. At the same time, she also wanted to discuss with Lu Jingchen to see how they should deal with this situation.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ciyou felt a little comforted. She knew that she was not fighting alone, and Lu Jingchen would always be by her side to support her. As long as the two of them worked together, they would be able to overcome this difficulty.
Jiang Ciyou lay back on the bed, closed her eyes, and tried to relax. She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that tomorrow would be a new beginning, and that she and Lu Jingchen could find a way to solve the problem and move towards their happy future.
Gradually, Jiang Ciyou's breathing became steady, and she finally fell asleep. In her dream, she and Lu Jingchen walked hand in hand on a sunny road, surrounded by flowers and green grass, and everything was so beautiful and peaceful.
The next morning, the sun shone through the window onto Jiang Ciyou's face. She slowly opened her eyes and felt the warmth of the sun. A new day had begun, and she knew she was about to face new challenges, but she was ready.
Jiang Ciyou got up, washed up, and changed into a simple and decent outfit. She looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes revealing determination and confidence. She took a deep breath, then picked up her phone and sent a text message to Lu Jingchen: "Dear, I miss you. Let's meet and talk. There are things I want to tell you."
After sending the text message, Jiang Ciyou walked out of the apartment and headed for the place she and Lu Jingchen had agreed on. On the way, she was still a little nervous and uneasy, but she also knew that this was something she had to face. She believed that as long as she and Lu Jingchen were honest with each other and faced it together, they would be able to find a solution to the problem.
When Jiang Ciyou arrived at the agreed location, Lu Jingchen had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Jiang Ciyou coming, he immediately went up to her and hugged her tightly: "Ciyou, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"
Jiang Ciyou leaned in Lu Jingchen's arms, feeling his warmth and strength. She raised her head, looked into Lu Jingchen's eyes, and said, "Dear, my husband came to see me yesterday. He threatened me that if I didn't come back to him, he would ruin my reputation."
There was a flash of anger in Lu Jingchen's eyes: "How could he do this? Ciyou, don't worry, I won't let him hurt you." Jiang Ciyou shook his head slightly: "I know, but I don't want you to get into trouble because of me. What should we do?"
Lu Jingchen gently stroked Jiang Ciyou's hair and said, "Ciyou, don't say that. We are together, and no matter what difficulties we encounter, we must face them together. I will find a way to solve this problem, believe me."
Jiang Ciyou looked at Lu Jingchen's determined eyes, and her heart was filled with emotion and trust. She nodded: "I believe you, dear. But we must also act carefully. After all, my husband still has a certain influence in this circle."
