His Glamorous Reborn Wife

Chapter 408

Shi Jin's car stopped. She took off her eye mask, got out of the car, and walked into the alley.

Chu Ling followed her.

Shi Jin stopped in her tracks and turned around warily. She saw Chu Ling walking over.

"Shi Jin." Chu Ling was afraid that she would avoid him. He hurried forward and stood beside her. "How have you been?"

Shi Jin looked at him coldly. "You don't seem to have the right to ask this question."

"I know." Chu Ling's voice was filled with pain. "I know that I came late and cared for you too late... but I really want to know your situation." Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

"Save those words for your fans."

"Shi Jin!" Chu Ling took two steps forward and said, "Shi Xuexin and I have broken up. We have also annulled the engagement."

Shi Jin looked at him as if he was looking at a fool. The words 'What does this have to do with me' were clearly written in her eyes.

"I finally understand who is the most important and precious person in my life," Chu Ling said softly and solemnly. "I also know how many mistakes I have made in the past."

He lifted his head. "Shi Jin, do you still remember what you said in the past? You said that you wanted a house that belonged to you. You said that you wanted to plant the flowers and plants that you wanted in it and have a world that belonged to you."

Shi Jin was in a daze. Did she say those words? She had completely forgotten about it.

Compared to her current life, Chu Ling was more like a person who had appeared in a dream. His image in her mind was indifferent and could not stir any waves in her heart. She already had a lot of things that belonged to her now. What he said was not important at all and was not worth her attention.

Chu Ling took out the property deed. He did not know what he could use to move Shi Jin's heart.

Her coldness and distance stung his eyes, but he had to try again.

"Look, this is the villa I bought. It's right beside the Fifth Ring. It has a very big garden. You can plant everything you want inside. I can help you loosen the soil and water it. We'll have children in the future..."

"Shut up!" Shi Jin stopped him coldly.

"It's better than you renting a courtyard house here to grow flowers and plants!" Chu Ling had asked around and found out that the courtyard house was filled with Shi Jin's plants.

He said, "The villa I bought has a front yard, a garden platform on the top floor, and a few big balconies. They are all for you to plant flowers and plants. Shi Jin, I want you to consider it. I am very sincere. I want to fulfill your dream and fulfill my own as well."

"I'm sorry, my dream has nothing to do with you." Shi Jin took a few steps back when she saw him coming forward.

"Shi Jin..." Chu Ling stepped forward to grab her wrist. However, Shi Jin avoided it easily and did not give him any chance. She looked at him coldly. "Please don't look for me anymore. There's nothing between us anymore."

She looked behind him. "Xiao Li!"

Xiao Li had already run over. He was worried about Shi Jin's safety and stayed close to her.

"Let's go," Shi Jin said to Xiao Li.

"Okay." Xiao Li glared at Chu Ling before following Shi Jin.

When they got into the car, Shi Jin pinched the space between her eyebrows, feeling a little frustrated.

It was not because his words had touched her, but because Chu Ling had found out about the place where the flowers were raised. It would be inconvenient for her to come over so casually next time.

She had to think of a way.

Chu Ling clenched his fists as he watched Shi Jin's back disappear. He got into the nanny van and the car disappeared from his sight.

He didn't believe that Shi Jin would be so heartless to him. How could her past love disappear so quickly?

She had sung so many sincere love songs. Did it have nothing to do with him?

He stood in a daze for a while before walking to the courtyard house and knocking on the door.

The uncle opened the door and asked, "Who are you looking for?" "Hello, I want to rent this courtyard house at a high price," Chu Ling said.

If he rented it at a high price, he would be closer to Shi Jin.

He had never thought of buying it because there would be nobody who would sell a courtyard house in the imperial capital. Even if there was, there would be no buyers because they would be... unable to afford it.

Especially in this core area.

"No rent, no sale. The owner is using it," the old man said and closed the door.

The door almost knocked into Chu Ling's nose.

Owner is using it? What did this mean?

Chu Ling's fingers hung on the edge of his pants, not understanding the sentence.

When Shi Jin returned to Orchid Pavilion, Fu Xiuyuan had just returned from work.

"Didn't you say you went to see the flowers?" He was surprised that Shi Jin had returned so quickly.

"I didn't see the flowers. I saw Chu Ling," Shi Jin said helplessly.

Fu Xiuyuan frowned slightly. Shi Jin did not hide anything from him and told him the truth.

"So, I'm not in the mood to look at flowers anymore. I came straight home," said Shi Jin.

When she mentioned Chu Ling, she did not look reluctant at all. Her tone was completely calm, as if that was completely unimportant. As if he wasn't even a

person, just something unimportant.

Fu Xiuyuan's brows relaxed slightly and said, "I'll accompany you to the backyard to look at the flowers."

Shi Jin smiled and placed her hand in his palm. Actually, looking at flowers was secondary. The key was the person who looked at them together.

When she arrived at the backyard, Fu Xiuyuan tidied up his cufflinks and picked up his tools. "I'll go weed."

The man with the tie was already looking like a model when he started to weed. He looked more attractive than when he was reading files.

"Then I'll go water them." Shi Jin caught up with him.

After that, Chu Ling went to the courtyard house a few more times, but he never got close to it again.

The road that they had to pass through was already closed for the purpose of city planning. The cars that came and went had to have a pass to enter. He didn't have a pass and couldn't find out where he could get a pass no matter how hard he tried. He had no choice, but to give up on meeting Shi Jin here.

He was busy with work himself and had to postpone things indefinitely.

Shi Jin sat in Xiao Li's car. When she arrived, she saw the closed road.

"Xiao Li, did you get a pass?" Shi Jin asked.

"No." Xiao Li took a look and said, "I'll turn around first and ask Brother Yao how to handle this." Just as he was about to turn around, the closed path opened up and allowed them to pass.

"What's going on?" Xiao Li asked the person inside.

"Nothing's going on. Your car is free to go anywhere."

Xiao Li mumbled strangely. Shi Jin turned around and roughly understood what he meant.

Fu Xiuyuan, that petty man, deliberately sealed off this area because he didn't want Chu Ling to take another step in. However, this action really won her heart. She didn't want to see Chu Ling again.

The two people who opened the road also said strangely, "It's weird. I didn't see anything here that needed to be fixed, yet the road is closed."

"That's right. Normally, no one would come to this road. It can only lead to the courtyard house over there. Other than the people in that courtyard house, it basically has no effect. I don't know what kind of strange rule this is."

"I really don't understand."

"If you don't understand, just keep working. There's no need for us to understand the world of others."
