nd went to the garden teahouse where she had made an appointment with her older brother, Leng Yeshen.When the cold night arrived, Tong Yimo had already sat in the private room, having asked the waiter...Although it hurt, this kind of pain had begun to numb her.
Fresh blood dripped down her palm onto the ground. Tong Yimo watched Leng Yechen's furious back disappear, her heart was filled with confusion. Tears couldn't be held back any longer, "patta patta" falling down her cheeks.
She slid down the wall, her back against it, until she was kneeling on the ground, powerless. Her hands covered her face as sobs wracked her body.
When could she stop hurting for him
I don't know if it was a side effect from the medicine she took afterward, or because of excessive sadness that caused her stomach discomfort, but Tong Yimo returned home exhausted and vomited all night, almost spitting out bile.
During the day, she felt very nauseous and had no appetite. Later on, she finally managed to eat something, but now she's thrown it all up.
And that night, Leng Ye did not return all night.
The next day, Tong Yimo went to work with a pale face. As soon as she entered the office, she heard female colleagues discussing the gossip about Leng Yesen and Su Manxue spending the night at a hotel together on their phones.
Tong Yimo's originally pale face instantly turned ashen. She strode forward, snatched a phone from one of her female colleagues, and took a look. The photos on the webpage were secretly taken. Although they were not clear, it was possible to recognize that the female protagonist in the photos was Su Manxue, and the male protagonist...
Because it's a side view, the lighting isn't great, and the man in the photo does kind of look like Leng Yechen, but also a bit like Leng Zhujing.
Tong Yimò returned her phone to the female colleague and was met with a scathing remark, "You're crazy!"
Her curse, however, branded her as "Cold Night's ex-girlfriend."
Even before the day began, whispers were spreading in the employees' private chat group. Some claimed that Tong Yimo had gotten plastic surgery to look like Su Manxue.
In the face of these rumors, Tong Yimo remained calm and continued working as usual.
She just doesn't know who she offended, and has been ostracized by her colleagues.
During lunchtime at the employee cafeteria, no one was willing to sit with her.
Tong Yimo had cooked the meal and sat alone at a table, chewing slowly and carefully. In fact, she had no appetite at all, which was why she ate so slowly, bite by bite.
In the afterglow, a shadow suddenly flashed past.
Tong Yimo subconsciously raised her eyes, only to see Leng Yechen in a tailored black suit, sitting opposite her with the same employee meal she had, holding it calmly.
“I slept in my office last night and haven't left the building since,” he suddenly said, then picked up a chicken leg from his plate and placed it on her rice. “I specifically told Zheng, my assistant, to tell the kitchen staff at the employee restaurant to avoid MSG in every dish.”
Tong Yimo lowered her eyes, only listening, then silently ate her meal by herself, not wanting to say a word to him.
Actually, he didn't need to explain so much to her. Su Manxue knew who the male lead in that gossip news was.
"I'm watching you, for your protection." He paused, then continued, his voice as calm and matter-of-fact as if he were just chatting with her.
He's in a very precarious situation right now, and with him being in such frequent contact with her, she must have been under surveillance long ago.
She is his only weakness, anyone can use her to threaten him.
So, he sent his people to secretly protect her.
However, the one truly watching her wasn't Leng Ye Chen, but his top superior and godfather, Xia Yangxiao.
As his legal wife, Tong Yimò was being monitored because he had already reported her to his superiors. There was no way to hide it anymore.
As for the reason for monitoring her, Xia Yangxiao said it was for He Lengyeshen's sake, but in his heart, he always felt that Xia Yangxiao actually had other motives.
So, he ordered the subordinate who was watching over Yi Mo to report any movement from Yi Mo to him first, and then selectively report it to Xia Yangxiao.
Yesterday she went to the pharmacy, the people secretly watching her were only suspicious that the medicine she bought would be harmful to Leng Ye Chen, but who knew she only bought medicine for after the fact.
He didn't know if she had listened to his explanation, but the anger remained. After all, facts were facts.
She is still young, she can be willful, but he, Leng Ye Chen, is not a child anymore, he cannot act recklessly.
And his explanation, to Tong Yimo's ears, sounded like he was just trying to justify his distrust of her.
“Protect me Protect me to the point of knowing what I’m doing every minute and second Do you mean that even when I sleep with you, someone is secretly watching us Are you afraid that I will stab you in the back secretly Poison you Oh, I almost forgot! Brother, your identity is so precious! Controlling such a large group alone, so many people rely on you to eat. If the Leng Group collapses, how many people would be unemployed! Oh, right, Brother also seems to have another identity that I don't even know about, right You and Dr. Lian have been chasing the case related to 'the drug', haven't you The 'drug' you are chasing is related to my grandmother, isn't it I was raised by my grandmother, so naturally, you would suspect me as well! To put it bluntly, you monitor me because you suspect that I will be harmful to you” Tong Yimo said eloquently.

>she would have a valid reason to divorce him."Why aren't you speaking" Luo Yirou continued to ask.Tong Yi Mo only then came to her senses, answering without thinking, "If Big Brother says so, then tha...
