Chapter 688: Chapter 679: Driving Du Wanqing Out

Concubine Du had already cried until her eyes were red; this time it wasn’t fake tears, but genuine crying that had lasted several days.

Jie Zhonglin had completely stopped believing in her. She recognized the look in his eyes all too well—it was the same contemptuous gaze he once had for Du Xintong, perhaps even more intense.

She had nothing left but Jie Zhonglin’s love, and without him, how was she to live?

"Husband," Concubine Du crawled forward a few steps and suddenly grasped the hem of Jie Zhonlin’s robe, crying out, "You can’t do this to me. You once promised that you regarded me as your wife, your only wife. Husband and wife are one; if I have made a mistake, you would bear it with me. I admit I’ve done wrong, but you can’t go back on your word and cast me out."

Jie Zhonglin, struck as by lightning, stared at her, dumbfounded. These were indeed his own words from years past, but how could he have been so foolish? His disgust with himself deepened.

He angrily pushed Concubine Du away, shouting, "Enough, we were both wrong, don’t you understand? You will be punished, and I will be punished. At this point, even if I wanted to protect you, it would be impossible. My father will not let you stay in the Jie Family any longer—don’t you see that?"

Concubine Du pleaded through her tears, "I’m not like Du Xintong; she is the legitimate daughter. Both the Du Family and the Yu Family have left their estate to her. I have nothing. She took everything away from my room when she left. I am left with nothing. If you ask me to leave the Jie Family, how will I survive? I don’t want to go... Master has always doted on you the most. If you talk to him, tell him I’m the woman you love the most, your wife. He surely won’t make things difficult for me. Husband, I can’t be without you, you’ve always known that, haven’t you?"

Jie Zhonglin looked at her and sneered coldly, "You are my wife? Are you really? Are you worthy? Haven’t you caused me enough misery? That I agreed to see you today is already the full extent of my kindness; don’t push your luck."

All of a sudden, Concubine Du laughed wildly, "If I’m not your wife, then who is? Don’t tell me it’s that bitch Du Xintong. You despised her, didn’t you? You’ve already divorced her; there’s no connection between you two anymore. Haha, I know you regret it, but what of it? Given her nature, since she agreed to the divorce, it means she’s done with you for good. You’ll never get her back in this lifetime..."

"Shut up!" Jie Zhonglin grabbed Concubine Du’s jaw with such force that her eyeballs seemed about to bulge out. The grip was so tight that it almost dislocated her jaw.

"Yes, I can’t have her—all because of you. You’ve deceived me for so many years and inflicted so much misery upon me. What more do you want?"

After bellowing these words, he threw Concubine Du aside and said indifferently, "Get out, I never want to see you again."

Concubine Du, frightened by his demeanor, lost her voice and forgot her pain.

It took her a good while to be able to close her jaw again, and seeing the bloodshot eyes of Jie Zhonglin, she knew she was completely ruined.

A sinister light flickered in Concubine Du’s eyes as she casually reached towards her waist.

She wouldn’t accept this. After so many years of hard work and careful planning, she was on the verge of grasping what she wanted, only to face such an end.

When Du Xintong left the Jie Family, it was said that she really did reopen Manxiu Building.

After leaving, apart from a tarnished reputation, her living standards in every other aspect would be better than when she was with the Jie Family. But it was different for her—she had nothing, only Jie Zhonglin.
