The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 86

Chapter 86: Chapter 86

But Jiang Moxi seemed to not hear Jiang Guosheng’s words and unexpectedly started walking away from them.

Yu Man saw this and immediately scolded: "Jiang Moxi, you stop right there."

This time, Jiang Moxi finally stopped in her tracks and looked back at them.

Her stunningly beautiful face unceremoniously barged into the sight of the three of them.

Even though they had already seen Jiang Moxi’s true beauty just moments before, the beauty of her looking directly at them was almost soul-snatching, leaving them somewhat at a loss on how to deal with it.

Yet, the beauty seemed unaware of her own allure, her eyes cold and indifferent, nearly void of any emotions.

"What is it?" Her tone was as cold as well.

Jiang Guosheng immediately snapped out of it from the chill: "I told you to come home with us!"

"I’m not going back," Jiang Moxi answered succinctly.

"Why not?" Yu Man could not help but ask her.

"That’s the home of your family of three, what would I go there for?" Jiang Moxi said mockingly with a glance at the three of them, then turned around and left.

"You..." Yu Man was so provoked by Jiang Moxi’s words she wanted to curse out loud, but before she could even speak, Jiang Guosheng stopped her.

"Don’t make a scene here, let’s talk when we get back!"

Having said that, Jiang Guosheng took the lead in walking away, clearly infuriated by Jiang Moxi just now.

Seeing this, Yu Man quickly followed, as if she couldn’t wait to get home and handle Jiang Moxi.

Jiang Weiwei watched their receding figures, her fingertips digging deeply into her palms.

These two had been claiming their love for her, Jiang Weiwei, all this time, especially Yu Man, who even said she only recognized Jiang Weiwei as her daughter and wouldn’t let Jiang Moxi ruin her chances of marrying into the Fu Family.

But now that they realized just how beautiful Jiang Moxi was, and that Fu Youhan was rather nice to Jiang Moxi, they completely forgot the promises they’d made!

Despite her unwillingness, Jiang Weiwei could only suppress all her rage and follow the pace of Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man at this moment.

Since she was capable of kicking Jiang Moxi out of the Jiang Family once, she could make sure she’d never be able to return to that home again...

On the other side, Jiang Moxi returned backstage and after changing out of her performance attire, Mu Wanting and Ling Ye came up to confront her.

"Damn, you’re so good-looking, why on earth would you want to apply that kind of makeup?"

"Jiang Moxi, I thought we were brothers, how could you not tell me you actually looked like this!"

"Looks aren’t something I can choose."

Jiang Moxi picked up her backpack and turned to leave, with Mu Wanting and Ling Ye hastily following.

"This is absolutely the most oblivious statement I have ever heard!" Mu Wanting added.

"I think she dares to wear that kind of makeup precisely because she’s good-looking. If it were someone else, I bet they’d look even uglier," Ling Ye also chimed in.

The three walked and chatted when suddenly Ren Huo approached.

"Moxi, today’s performance went really smooth, how about we all go have a meal together to celebrate?"

Previously during rehearsals, Ren Huo couldn’t have been less interested in Jiang Moxi, but now he was sticking to her like glue.

If he had known from the start that Jiang Moxi was such a top-tier beauty, Ren Huo definitely would not have missed the opportunity to rehearse more and get along with her.

But it’s not too late now.

After all, he was handsome, came from a good family, and also carried the prestige of being the president of the student council at First University.

To win over the pretty dummy from Technical College wouldn’t even take a moment.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Moxi just gave him a cold look, "How about not? Move aside!"

Ren Huo was being rejected for the first time, and he wanted to grab Jiang Moxi to talk some more.

Little did he expect that as soon as he reached out, Ling Ye blocked him: "Didn’t you hear her reject you? Get lost!"

Ren Huo was not willing to concede, but Ling Ye’s influence as the reigning king of both schools was not small either.

Ren Huo was afraid of getting beaten, so he could only stand down and watch with wide eyes as the trio left.

Similarly staring angrily at the departing trio was Lai Xueer.

Before Jiang Moxi showed her true gorgeous face, Ling Ye always protected Lai Xueer alone, and Ren Huo would also only pester Lai Xueer to have meals together.

But now that Jiang Moxi revealed her true self, Ling Ye started protecting her, and Ren Huo also followed her around exclusively.

Lai Xueer was almost furious to death!

She felt that the whole plot she designed today brought her no benefits at all. Instead, it let Jiang Moxi steal the entire show at the evening party, gaining the favor of many.

Moreover, she had heard that the leaders of both schools thought that the unanimous high praise for the evening party owed much to Jiang Moxi, and they decided to award her with additional honors!

The more Lai Xueer thought about it, the less she could accept it, so she secretly vowed to herself that she must drive Jiang Moxi out of Technical College...

After the evening party, Jiang Moxi went out for barbecue with Ling Ye and Mu Wanting.

When the barbecue was over, it was already very late, so she didn’t go to her part-time job at Night Color and went directly back to Tianqin Bay.

But the moment she opened the door and saw the familiar emptiness of her home, Jiang Moxi’s gaze grew stagnant.

She thought that Fu Youhan, under the watchful eyes of so many people on and off the stage, gave her his jacket as if he wanted to continue their relationship.

Although she didn’t show any signs at the time, during the barbecue just now, she was secretly looking forward to something.

It was only upon seeing the empty house that she realized what she had been anticipating, and understood that it was all but a fool’s dream.

Jiang Moxi gave a self-deprecating smile, then returned to her own room...

*

Meanwhile, in the ninth-floor private room of Night Color—

Ye Chen, with Yu Dingding in his arms, returned from a certain gathering and pushed open the door of the private room, only to see Fu Youhan drinking sullenly by himself, and couldn’t help but tease him.

"Back from a business trip and not staying in the land of tenderness first, why come here instead? It seems like you haven’t made up yet?"

Yu Dingding took the opportunity to steal a glance at Fu Youhan, noticing his black shirt unbuttoned at the top two buttons, his dark eyes deep as the ocean, coldly glancing at Ye Chen.

"Then why don’t you take your darling back to the land of tenderness to stay, why bother nosing around here?"

Yu Dingding didn’t expect that their squabble would involve her, and quickly withdrew her gaze.

"My darling and I are in the land of tenderness no matter where we are. Isn’t that right, darling?"

As Ye Chen spoke, he even kissed her face in front of Fu Youhan, his face covered with a tenderly affectionate smile that could drown a person.

But Yu Dingding just wiped her face and said, "Young Master Ye, you should play around less with me, I still need to get married in the future."

But her response seemed to somewhat displease Ye Chen, as his smile faded a bit.

"You’re still going to get married? To whom?"

"To whom I do not know, but I have to find somewhere to settle down eventually."

Yu Dingding still longed for marriage.

Ye Chen stared at her expectant demeanor and decided to light a cigar.

After taking a deep draw from the cigar, he then asked Yu Dingding, "What kind do you like?"

The smoke spread around him, making his face hazy and inscrutable.

But his voice was cold.

Yu Dingding was adept at reading people, but she didn’t change her attitude immediately, only responding to Ye Chen in a flat tone.

"Above 80 years old, preferably with some illnesses, and an estate worth over a billion."

This answer immediately made Ye Chen’s thin lips curve upwards, "You’re not hoping to marry someone, you clearly want to marry money!"
