Kapitel 7: Chapter 7 She’s My Wife
Redakteur: EndlessFantasy Translation
"She's my wife."
Fei Mo's words were so straightforward and so domineering that it rendered Gu Jingyan speechless.
Fei Mo's long and narrow eyes were as cold as swords at this moment. He did not let go of Yun Yiyi's hand. Instead, he reached out with his other hand to help her tidy up her messy hair and the corner of her collar so that she did not look so miserable.
This affectionate gesture between a loving couple seemed to pierce Gu Jingyan's heart when he saw it.
"Young Master Gu, no matter what relationship you had with Yiyi in the past, there's one thing you have to understand now. Currently, she's my wife. She's now the eldest Young Madam of the Fei family so please stay away from her in the future."
The smell of gunpowder lingered in the air, and electricity seemed to crackle. The tension was palpable as Fei Mo and Gu Jingyan looked at each other.
Gu Jingyan asked incredulously, "Fei Mo? Why is it you?" Of all the women in Jiang City, why did Fei Mo choose Yun Yiyi, a woman who was still the Young Madam of the Gu family just a few days ago?
Alas, it was destined that Gu Jingyan would not get an answer.
Fei Mo had no intention of paying Gu Jingyan any attention at all. He did not even deign to look at Gu Jingyan. Instead, his attention was focused on Yun Yiyi. His eyes were no longer as cold as before. His eyes softened as he asked, "You're done with work?"
She nodded blankly. "We can leave now." She was in a daze, replaying the gentle and doting expression on Fei Mo's face earlier. She wondered if he had taken the wrong medication?
"Fei Mo!" Gu Jingyan said through gritted teeth, "You can't take Yun Yiyi away. She's my wife!"
With these words, Yun Yiyi finally regained her senses. She sneered. There was clearly something wrong with Gu Jingyan's words. His wife? They had already signed the divorce papers.
"Your wife?" Fei Mo looked at Gu Jingyan with a cutting gaze. "Are you delusional? You're divorced!"
Gu Jingyan's mind turned blank immediately. That was right. He finally recalled he and Yun Yiyi had signed the divorce papers. She had left the house after she obtained his signature.
"Let's go home." Fei Mo turned to look at Yun Yiyi and held her hand as they walked away.
Since Hua Corporation was on the 25th floor, they had to take the elevator down.
When they reached the elevator, Fei Mo immediately let go of Yun Yiyi's hand.
With this, she realized he was helping her out earlier. This was part of his obligations in their marriage of convenience, after all. Even so, she was grateful for Fei Mo's timely appearance. She did not hesitate to express her gratitude. "President Fei, thank you."
Fei Mo did not look at Yun Yiyi. His expression had returned to its usual frostiness, keeping others from getting too close to him
Yun Yiyi rubbed her arms, feeling as though the temperature in the surroundings had dropped. At this moment, she suddenly sneezed. It was really cold. She did not know whether it was due to the air-conditioning or the cold air he emitted.
Fei Mo looked at her from the corners of his eyes; her actions did not escape his notice. His eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly, but he did not say anything.
The silence in the elevator made Yun Yiyi feel awkward so she took the initiative to speak. "President Fei, thank you for helping me out earlier."
"..."
"Most of my colleagues have left, and no one saw us earlier. President Fei, rest assured. My matter with Gu Jingyan won't bring you any trouble."
"..." At the mention of Gu Jingyan's name, Fei Mo seemed to turn even colder.
However, since Fei Mo was always cold, Yun Yiyi did not notice the difference. "That's right. Is there a reason you came looking for me here, President Fei? Is it something related to our agreement? There's no need to trouble yourself to come all the way here, you can just tell it to me over the phone."
"..."
"President Fei?"
"..."
"President Fei, did I offend you somehow?" Yun Yiyi saw that Fei Mo's expression was getting darker and darker by the minute, causing her to feel uneasy. In the end, she wisely decided to keep quiet.
"..."
Fei Mo continued to ignore Yun Yiyi. He strode out of the elevator with his long and slender legs. When he saw Yun Yiyi struggling to catch up to him in her high heels, he slowed down his pace, worried she might twist her ankle.
'Damn it! Why did I start worrying about her again?'
Yun Yiyi followed Fei Mo out of the building quietly like a shadow. His expression was ice-cold, and his lips were pursed. He did not say a word to her at all.
On the phone earlier, Fei Mo told Yun Yiyi to call him after work. He had been waiting for her, and she was 15 minutes late. He felt it was necessary to speak to her about the importance of time management. Who knew when he came to her office, he would see Gu Jingyan hugging her? He even overheard their conversation. Although he knew that Gu Jingyan was her ex-husband, for some unknown reason, he felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw Gu Jingyan hugging her. If it were not for his impeccable restraint, he would have charged over immediately.
His heart that had always been as still as a lake seemed to have some ripples now because of her. There was a small trace of unknown anger in his heart that he wanted to vent on Gu Jingyan desperately. However, it was unlike him to do such a thing. Since he did not get to vent his anger, his frustration continued to build and he ignored Yun Yiyi.
Yun Yiyi could not help but feel she was at fault even though Gu Jingyan was the one who sought her out. Even if it was just a marriage of convenience, most men would not be able to endure such a thing, let alone a prideful man like Fei Mo. In the end, she quickened her pace and stood in front of him, blocking his path. Then, she said apologetically, "I'm really sorry."
Fei Mo lowered his head and looked at Yun Yiyi. His eyes were so dark. like the bottom of the sea, making it difficult to discern his thoughts.
"President Fei, I'm really sorry. I sincerely apologize to you."
Fei Mo sidestepped Yun Yiyi and walked past her.
Yun Yiyi hurried after him and began to explain herself. "President Fei, I'll explain everything to Gu Jingyan. Please don't worry."
"..."
"President Fei, there's really nothing between Gu Jingyan and meI. We're divorced, and I've severed all ties with him."
"..."
Fei Mo remained unmoved. He remained silent as he walked in front of her. Finally, he came to a halt in front of his Rolls-Royce Phantom.
Seeing that Fei Mo was determined to ignore her apology, she decided to change the topic. "President Fei, you came to see me because of our agreement, right? Should we go to a cafe and talk or..."
Before Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she felt her face hitting something hard. When she looked up, she realized she had walked into Fei Mo's back. She grimaced and rubbed her forehead. 'Is his back made of iron? It hurts so much!'
When Fei Mo turned around and saw Yun Yiyi rubbing her forehead in pain, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.
Just as Fei Mo was about to speak, Ah Qing opened the door and respectfully said, "Young master, young madam, please get in the car."
Ah Qing's appearance made Fei Mo swallow the words on the tip of his tongue. He shot a cold look at Ah Qing before he entered the car.
Ah Qing felt chills running up his spine. He could tell his young master was displeased. He wondered inwardly, 'I… I don't think I've done or said anything wrong, right?'
