Chapter 1025: Chapter 1030: It’s All My Fault
A few days later, taking advantage of Green Group and Tangyuan falling asleep, Duo’er went to the workshop where the medicinal powder was produced.
She suddenly had a new idea, which was to create a special cream for babies.
No matter the era, parental love for their children is always selfless, with a wish to give them the best the world has to offer.
Just as Qiao Duo’er entered, a man rushed in.
He was looking for Almond.
"Almond, I know I was wrong, please forgive me. I truly love you and want to be with you for the rest of my life," Zhu Jianzhi said sincerely.
Almond snorted, "Don’t disgust me with that nonsense!"
She had always thought that Zhu Jianzhi harbored some true feelings for her, but after returning to the village, she found out that Zhu Jianzhi had married the daughter of a wealthy farmer, who had not escaped the epidemic.
"Don’t be like this, my mother is no longer against us now," Zhu Jianzhi said urgently. He knew that what Almond cared about the most was that his mother had once objected to their relationship.
"Your mother agrees because of the money I earn monthly, now get lost!" Almond said unequivocally.
Now she had seen through Zhu Jianzhi. She couldn’t possibly make the foolish decision to be with him again.
Zhu Jianzhi grabbed Almond’s hand and said, "Are you saying that when you said you wanted to be with me before, you were lying?"
"Yes, liking you was a mistake on my part," Almond said irritably. His wife’s body was still warm, yet there wasn’t the slightest sign of sadness or regret on his face. If she agreed today, she would be treated the same way in the future.
Zhu Jianzhi suddenly embraced Almond in his arms; he didn’t believe he could possess her body without also capturing her heart.
Qiao Duo sneered, she had thought there was a misunderstanding between the two, but now she saw the man was a jerk!
In the face of such scum, Duo’er’s hand moved, and a teapot smashed onto Zhu Jianzhi’s head.
Unfortunately, it lacked hot water.
However, a teapot was enough for dealing with Zhu Jianzhi, a scholar. Almond took the opportunity to hide by Qiao Duo’s side. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖕𝖚𝖇.𝖈𝔬𝔪
At that moment, the door was pushed open with force.
"Ah Hong, look, this is your fine wife,"
Wang Yun looked at Duo’er with contempt. How could she be in the same room with a strange man, especially one in disarray?
Almond hurriedly explained, "Elder Brother, he came to look for..."
Before Almond could finish speaking, Qiao Duo’er cut her off, "In a word, do you believe me or your own eyes?"
"You’re here tugging and pulling with a strange man, how dare you still be fierce to Ah Hong? Ah Hong loves you, but you can’t just hurt him because he loves you. Ah Hong, don’t be sad. I won’t let anyone bully you like this."
Wang Yun had just finished speaking when she became terribly embarrassed, as Tan Zhenghong was already standing by Duo’er’s side.
Tan Zhenghong said calmly, "Wife, I believe you."
As for this man... he was far inferior to himself. Duo’er would never be interested in him in this lifetime.
Receiving Wang Yun’s gaze, Zhu Jianzhi immediately knelt on the ground: "Elder Brother, I was wrong. The last time I came to take Almond home, I was captivated by the Madam at first sight. I’ve been haunted by thoughts of her day and night. Madam was also very troubled by my persistence, only agreeing to me because of that. She still loves you in her heart."
Almond said in disappointment, "Do you... do you realize what you’re saying?"
"I’m sorry, the one I like isn’t you. Please stop pestering me," Zhu Jianzhi pleaded.
Almond was dumbfounded. She could never have imagined that the man who had just been sweet-talking her would now declare his love for another person.
