Kapitel 2: Chapter 2 Ex-wife, long time no see
Ex-wife?!
Cheng Ruowei suddenly stiffened, her eyes widening as she stared at the man seated on the sofa in front of her.
She had not expected to encounter him here.
And, it was she who had been caught.
The man's tall and straight figure was hidden in the shadows, his long legs casually crossed, a wine glass lightly swirled in his hand, the dark red within reflecting in his eyes turned into a sinister and dangerous glint.
"Heh, haven't seen you in five years, how have you fallen to the point of showing your face in such a place? It seems being the Di Family's discarded wife isn't easy,"
His magnetic lazy voice fell, the words tinged with sharp humiliation.
At this moment, Cheng Ruowei felt herself to be exceedingly disheveled.
Struggling to get up, her arm tried to cover her ridiculous waitress uniform.
Why did she have to encounter the person she least wanted to see here of all places?
The Di Family's bodyguards stood at the door, her situation precarious, and she could only purse her lips in silence.
Clearly, the other party was not satisfied with her reaction.
"Ex-wife, have you forgotten me?"
The man lazily set down his wine glass and rose, walking towards her.
His height of one meter ninety brought an overwhelming sense of oppression, the shadows receding to reveal a face as stunningly perfect as that of a deity.
The black silk shirt was undone at the top two buttons, appearing casual yet enchanting, his nose bridge high, his lips thin and crimson, and those deep, mischievous eyes seemed to be laughing, hiding a dangerous aggressiveness deep within their pupils.
Di Jinye.
The head of the wealthiest Di Family, her ex-husband.
Cheng Ruowei watched him, holding her breath with her heart pounding chaotically.
She thought that after their divorce five years ago, they would never meet again, let alone in this manner.
"Di Shao should forget me,"
She feigned composure, feeling as though she was being scrutinized naked under his gaze.
At her words, Di Jinye arched an eyebrow and chuckled lightly, leaning down, his long fingers pinching her chin.
"Such a beautiful face, it's hard for me to forget it."
She wasn't wearing makeup, her complexion pale and exquisite, her eyes clear and sparkling like stars.
His gaze traveled down her neck.
The lacy fabric at her chest tantalizingly concealed deep valleys, while the miniskirt just covered her buttocks, revealing a pair of snow-white legs.
He couldn't deny that he had chosen Cheng Ruowei for a contractual marriage back then because she was attractive.
His mother had hoped he would marry the Bai Family's young miss, but disregarding his clan's opposition, he insisted on fulfilling the marriage agreement between the Di and Cheng families.
After the wedding, Cheng Ruowei was obedient to the point of being uninteresting, a mere ornament by his side, but at least he didn't have to worry about being schemed against by the woman beside him.
Yet this woman had actually dared to propose a divorce and even ran away to elope with another man.
"Di Shao can have any beautiful woman he wants; it's me who is unworthy. Please, let me go,"
Cheng Ruowei's spine tensed, her breathing affected by his potent masculine scent, an unprecedented throbbing in her heart.
She didn't want to explain the manipulations of the past; she just wanted to owe nothing to the Di Family.
"Heh, let you go? Cheng Ruowei, I warned you to behave after the wedding, yet you dared to betray me. Did you ever think of the consequences? How could I possibly let you go? No matter how far you run, you will be caught by me and punished for your mistakes,"
A malevolent hatred surged within Di Jinye's smiling face.
As expected.
The Di Family was looking for her.
Perhaps the abduction of her children back then was the Di Family's retaliation.
Fear flashed in Cheng Ruowei's eyes as she realized Di Jinye intended to punish her for her betrayal.
The Cheng Family would get implicated as well, which meant that her return this time was very dangerous, all the more reason to protect her two children.
"Why do you still torment me after the divorce? I have nothing to do with you!"
"Whether we have nothing to do with each other isn't for you to decide. Now that you've fallen into my hands, you should reflect on how to properly apologize to me. If you dare to run away again, I will lock you up."
"I was wrong… Di Shao, please, let me go,"
Cheng Ruowei pretended to apologize to him.
She lowered her head, her gaze surveying the surrounding environment.
Di Jinye's barely perceptible frown suggested his impression of Cheng Ruowei as someone who was weak to the point of being dull.
"Follow me obediently. The more you try to run, the worse the consequences will be."
He let go of her and strode out with long steps.
The wine tonight was not very good, but the catch was not bad at all.
At that moment, Cheng Ruowei rose and followed behind Di Jinye, but she was just waiting for him to let down his guard, and suddenly she rushed towards the balcony with quick steps.
She swiftly locked the glass door from the inside, saw the open-air swimming pool below, and held her breath as she leaped down.
In Di Jinye's line of sight as he turned around, he only saw Cheng Ruowei's determined figure leaping down.
Suddenly, his heartbeat missed a beat as he quickly approached.
The Di Family's bodyguards couldn't open the locked balcony glass door and had no way to pursue her.
The second floor wasn't too high above the swimming pool, but it was zero degrees outside, and yet she had the courage to jump.
From his vantage point above, Di Jinye watched Cheng Ruowei swimming out of the pool, a smile curving his lips.
He suddenly realized that this woman was no longer weak and submissive; she had become rather interesting.
The bar on the 52nd floor offered a panoramic view of the city's nightscape, yet this sight was nothing compared to the surprise that Cheng Ruowei brought.
"Seal off the bar, don't let my ex-wife escape."
"Yes, Young Master Di."
The Di family bodyguards quickly carried out the order.
Meanwhile.
Cheng Ruowei, soaking wet, climbed out of the swimming pool, drawing the attention of all the patrons around her, as no one else was swimming in this weather.
Despite the cold, she grabbed a towel from the side, wrapped it around her body, and hurriedly ran out.
With the bar crowded with customers, she managed to escape before the Di family could complete their lockdown.
She didn't dare think about the consequences if Di Jinye were to catch her.
Nighttime.
Cheng Ruowei returned home in a terrible state, alarming her son and daughter.
"Mommy, what happened? Weren't you going to discuss business? Who bullied you?"
As the only man in the house, Cheng Yuheng stood proudly, ready to protect Mommy.
"It's nothing, I just accidentally fell into the swimming pool."
She couldn't mention the retaliation from her ex-husband, but fortunately, she had learned to swim with her two children.
Cheng Ruowei had not told her children about her past because she didn't want them to ask about their daddy or feel inferior about their origins.
"Yuheng, Mommy's phone got water damaged."
"I'll fix it tomorrow."
It was good to have a son who was skilled in technology.
At the same time, little Jiajia hurriedly ran to the room to fetch a change of clothes for Mommy.
"Mommy, take a shower quick, or you'll catch a cold."
"Thank you, baby."
After Cheng Ruowei had a hot shower in the bathroom, she came out to find a cup of cold remedy tea prepared for her.
She noticed that Yuheng and Jiajia, both cleaned and in pajamas, didn't seem to plan on leaving and were eagerly watching her.
"Not used to the new house yet? How about sleeping with Mommy tonight?"
"That would be great."
Then, the two children cheerfully climbed into bed, snuggling up to Mommy from both sides.
Gently hugging them, Cheng Ruowei knew these two children were the most important treasures in her life; she had to protect them at all costs.
At that moment, Cheng Yuheng, holding a tablet, said, "Mommy, all of the emails from the past two days are from the same Doctor Zhou seeking Yun Li."
Yun Li was another name used by Cheng Ruowei.
She was a Pharmacist, had learned from her mother in the countryside as a child, and was very talented in medicine making.
For the past five years, she had relied on her own abilities to formulate medicinal drugs for the wealthy. The outside world said she was greedy for money, but she never explained.
"Miss Yun Li, this time the custom medicine needed is for the Di Family. You can name your price, please make sure to contact me."
The Di Family? Could it be Di Jinye?
Cheng Ruowei frowned slightly and replied personally.
The next day.
At the Di World Group, on the 68th floor, President's Office.
Zhou Yukun, wearing silver-rimmed glasses, appeared here. He was the Di Family's private doctor.
"Pharmacist Yun Li responded to me. When she heard that it was the Di Family who needed the medicine, she flatly refused."
Hearing this, Di Jinye suddenly furrowed his brows and slowly looked up.
"She refused the Di Family? The price wasn't satisfactory?"
