Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1507: Chapter 1522: Divorced

”Junyang!”

A crisp, pleasant voice slipped into his ears. He turned his head in a daze and saw that the fool who’d just been on the stairs was now standing at the doorway behind him. The corners of his lips couldn’t help lifting into a doting smile.

”Junyang, I was just passing by and saw a car at the door that looked like yours, so I thought I’d come in and take a look. I didn’t expect it to really be you.”

Xie Yuting said as she quickly walked in.

She clearly saw Lin Junyang smiling at her, just like a few years ago—she called his name gently, and he would look at her with a doting smile.

After so many years, she finally came to see clearly that all the power, status, and glory she had chased after were things this man could have given her all along. What she realized even more clearly was that there would never be another man in this world like him, who would give her all his affection unconditionally.

She regretted it. From the moment she heard from her father that he was going to become the deputy captain of the Special Training Team, she had already begun to regret it.

Or rather, from the moment she found out his father had become the Imperial Chief Guard, she had already started regretting it. No one understood better than she did what it meant for her father to become the Imperial Chief Guard.

But by then she had already married Chen Sheng, and Lin Junyang was far away in the Nan’an Guard Team.

Still, fortunately, after all these years, no other woman had appeared by his side. Even that Xiao Xiao had only shown up around him in the past year because she was Young Master Mu’s wife.

It didn’t matter. None of it mattered. She knew exactly what place she held in his heart. If he didn’t still love her, how could he have stayed away from the Imperial City for so long? Clearly, it was just because he was afraid of stirring up old feelings.

Besides, that Xiao Xiao was far away in Nan’an. She refused to believe that now that she held the advantage in timing and terrain, she still wouldn’t be able to win this man’s heart back.

Recently, she had used every resource at her disposal to keep track of Lin Junyang’s movements. She knew he had left the Guard Team today to come here to look at this apartment, so she deliberately waited here.

Seeing Lin Junyang smile at her, Xie Yuting felt that everything she’d done was worth it.

It wasn’t until the woman ran up in front of him that Lin Junyang finally saw who it was. A trace of disappointment flashed through his heart, and the smile on his face unconsciously faded. He asked, politely yet detached, ”What are you doing here?”

He really must be out of it. Or maybe his sister’s cooking today really was toxic enough to give him hallucinations, to the point he actually thought she was that fool. How could that fool possibly show up in the Imperial City at this time?

Xie Yuting stood in front of Lin Junyang. She wasn’t tall, about one meter sixty. Standing in front of a man who was one meter eighty-five, she looked delicate and lovable.

She tilted her small head up, blinking those innocent big eyes at him. She remembered that every time she looked at him like this before, he would immediately pull her into his arms and accuse her of using those big eyes to seduce him.

But after only a few seconds of meeting his gaze, she saw his eyes shift away, unnaturally, and Xie Yuting lowered her head, speaking softly, ”I divorced Chen Sheng. At home my dad nags at me every day, so I moved out. It just so happens my friend has an empty place here. She’s abroad now and isn’t living here, so she told me to come stay.”

Before Lin Junyang could respond, Xie Yuting finished speaking and craned her neck to peek inside the apartment. ”Huh, is this the place you asked Brother to buy last time? It’s so beautiful.”

Lin Junyang stood there in a daze, her unintentional confession still ringing in his ears—she had divorced Chen Sheng. She had actually really divorced Chen Sheng?!
