Chapter 1377 - I Only Want You (1/2)

Shaking her head, Jing Chu answered, “No idea, let’s go and take a look.”

As soon as they stepped forward, a woman alighted from the car. Jing Chu took a closer look, only to discover that it was Tian Tian, after which she immediately pulled Fat Lass away.

Fat Lass asked softly, “Sis Jing Chu, isn’t that Pei Yi’s fiancée? What is she doing here?”

Jing Chu shook her head and said, “No idea. Let’s go to the supermarket to get some stuff.”

Fat Lass expressed assent, and the two headed to the supermarket together.

They stayed at the supermarket for a long time. However, they were wandering around aimlessly and did not buy anything at all.

Little did Jing Chu know, Tian Tian had already left long ago because she didn’t know the password to Pei Yi’s mansion.

Upon returning home, she instructed Fat Lass, “No matter who shows up at the door, just pretend that you didn’t hear the doorbell. Don’t open the door.”

Even the dimwitted Fat Lass could tell that something was amiss. After some thought, she asked, “Sis Jing Chu, could Mr. Pei be Pei Yi?”

Jing Chu answered, “Yeah.”

Fat Lass placed her hand over her mouth in shock and said, “Sis Jing Chu, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I even said those things…”

Jing Chu held her hand and said, “Don’t worry. I didn’t tell Master Pei. I won’t betray you.”

Fat Lass felt a huge sense of relief. “Thank you, Sis Jing Chu. I won’t spout any nonsense anymore from now on.”

“You can say whatever you want to me, but don’t mention them to him. Fat Lass, I’m hungry. Go and cook something,” said Jing Chu.

“Alright.”

After Fat Lass headed to the kitchen, she sent Pei Yi a text message to inform him that Tian Tian had dropped by and that she did not meet her.

Pei Yi replied, “I’ll see to it.”

Jing Chu could put her mind at ease.

She began cooping herself up at home again and instructed Fat Lass to go to the supermarket only in the morning. The two of them had each other’s company.

Jing Chu and Fat Lass got along very well and lived harmoniously with each other.

Pei Yi would visit her periodically and only stay for a short while during each visit. However, he brought her to the hospital twice within two months.

Whenever she asked about what they were there for, he would simply tell her that they were there for a regular physical examination.

Due to the anesthesia that she had been administered, she had no idea what went on during the checkup.

She did not think much of it either.

It was the day of Pei Yi and Tian Tian’s wedding.

Their wedding was reported on the news, and Jing Chu even sneaked to the church to watch their wedding ceremony.

During the ceremony, she sat in the last row of seats in the church and stared at the newlyweds. Pei Yi was dressed in an immaculate suit while Tian Tian was dressed in a white wedding gown.

No one discovered that she was an uninvited guest at first. However, Pei Yi caught sight of her when he exchanged wedding bands with Tian Tian and was about to kiss her.

At that moment, Jing Chu hung her head as low as she could.

Pei Yi grabbed Tian Tian’s hand and kissed it, after which the ceremony ended.

Jing Chu was the first to leave the church.

She sprinted out of the church and ran toward Fat Lass. They then returned to the estate together.

Jing Chu was overwhelmed with a different feeling the moment she returned home.

Given Pei Yi’s attitude, he would definitely make her stay with him for decades. By then, she would be old and way past her childbearing years. It would be difficult for her to get married too. Thus, she would definitely end up dying alone.

Jing Chu could not help but find her future to be bleak and pathetic.

She wanted to find a man who would be devoted to her and love her wholeheartedly. She wanted to live a happy life with her family too.

However, her wishes would probably never come true.

She initially thought that Pei Yi would definitely spend his nuptial night with his bride.

Yet, he arrived at the mansion just as Jing Chu was about to shower at night. He stood by the door of the washroom and watched her shower.

“Why are you here?”
