But as Su Ming drove into Longcheng, the bitterness and loneliness in her heart could no longer be hidden.
"Darling, what's wrong with you?" Lin Yanan asked when she noticed.
"Nothing, I just suddenly feel a bit car sick, so I want to get out and get some fresh air. You guys go ahead; don't worry about me," Shen Mengxue replied with a forced smile.
Lin Yanan originally wanted Su Ming to take Shen Mengxue home first, as she thought it was a bit unsafe for a girl to be outside alone at night.
However, Su Ming spoke at this moment: "Boss lady, I got it. Be careful on your way home alone."
Hearing this, Shen Mengxue smiled and nodded, then got out of the car alone.
As Su Ming restarted the car, he watched Shen Mengxue's figure gradually disappear into the night in the rearview mirror.
Seeing the puzzled look on Lin Yanan's pretty face, he then said:
"The boss lady saw us get our marriage certificate today. Although she appeared genuinely happy for us on the surface, she might have been reminded of her previous failed marriage."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yanan suddenly realized and then said:
"Ah, I almost forgot she's a divorced woman."
Lin Yanan recalled the moment when Shen Mengxue was obviously upset inside but still forced a smile, not wanting them to worry.
The look of distress immediately appeared on Lin Yanan's pretty face, and she murmured while shaking her head:
"Mengxue, why don't you say it out loud? In that case, we might be able to comfort you a bit."
Su Ming, seeing this, had a trace of helplessness in his eyes, thinking Lin Yanan might not know that.
The reason why the boss lady was so upset is because she saw us get our marriage certificate today.
She wasn't recalling the past failed marriage; rather, as a woman deeply in love with Su Ming.
She doesn't want to share the man she loves with another woman, even if that woman is her best friend.
The love between a man and a woman is extremely selfish, so neither side wants to share their most beloved person with others.
Su Ming also wished he could devote himself wholeheartedly to just one person, but sometimes, he also felt helpless.
He unintentionally got involved with too many women who were almost perfect in his heart.
Su Ming had to distribute his love to these wonderful women.
Because he didn't want to let down any of them.
Su Ming drove quietly, thinking, and soon arrived at the villa in Tangquan District.
He put all the items from the car's trunk into the refrigerator at Lin Yanan's home.
After all, he was now married to Lin Yanan, and this villa had become their shared home.
Just as Su Ming had walked out of the villa and was about to have a cigarette, several voice messages came in from the boss lady:
"Su Ming, you big jerk! Why do you have to be so excellent and perfect? Otherwise, Yanan wouldn't have fallen for you!"
Hearing the voice message from the boss lady, Su Ming showed a helpless expression and said:
"Come on, you were the one who fully supported me and Yanan getting together back then, so why are you saying this now?"
However, Su Ming also knew deep down that the boss lady was unwilling to simply let him go to another woman.
But the boss lady had said before that she was too old and couldn't provide the resources, connections, and background that Su Ming needed to climb up in life.
And she thought Lin Yanan was young, beautiful, and came from a strong family background, making her a perfect match for Su Ming.
Plus, since Lin Yanan was the boss lady's best friend, giving Su Ming to her wouldn't be too unbearable.
However, at this moment, Shen Mengxue felt that she had been too naive back then.
This time, after witnessing Su Ming and Lin Yanan obtain their marriage certificate.
The turbulent waves of bitterness and loneliness in her heart almost drowned her entirely.
She felt as if she was plunged into icy cold seawater, with permeating coldness throughout her body.
She also experienced an almost tangible sensation of drowning, feeling so sad that she could barely breathe.
Shen Mengxue was now in a bar, even though it was bustling around her and the music was deafening.
But she obviously couldn't immerse herself in such a lively environment, her pretty face flushed with the redness of intoxication, sending voice messages to Su Ming repeatedly.
Until in the end, she felt that even so, she couldn't disperse her inner sadness, and simply initiated a video call invitation.
When Su Ming accepted the video call invitation, he immediately saw in the video.
The boss lady took a bottle of whiskey and gulped it down, then spoke in slurred drunken words:
"Su Ming, how come you have time to answer my call? Aren't you supposed to be with Yanan consummating your marriage now? You're something else! You actually have the heart to let such a beauty with a face and body both top-notch stay alone in an empty room! Don't you know a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold coins?"
Upon seeing this, Su Ming's face immediately darkened.
A surge of anger suddenly welled up in his heart.
Because he saw the boss lady had actually gone to such a chaotic, smoky place like a bar alone.
Although Su Ming often frequented bars himself, he was a bouncer for Wang Guohao's Blue Moon Bar.
He naturally knew how dangerous bars were for a drunken beautiful woman like the boss lady.
As expected, Su Ming's eyes caught sight of a man's silhouette not far behind the boss lady in the video.
The man had an expression of drunkenness, with eyes burning with unrestrained fire.
He had slicked-back hair and wore a floral shirt with several buttons undone.
Below, he wore beach shorts, looking sleazy, and was slowly approaching the boss lady.
There was another man with dyed blonde hair following him, and both of them were now standing beside the boss lady.
Seeing this, Su Ming felt his heart sink immediately, realizing the boss lady was now in a dangerous situation.
If this stunning beauty, about to be dead drunk, becomes unconscious for a moment.
If she were to be carried by these two men with leering eyes to a hotel, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The terrifying scene of what might happen filled Su Ming's mind, sending shivers down his spine, making him feel cold.
He loved the boss lady very much and naturally wouldn't allow her to suffer any harm.
Thinking of this, Su Ming quickly rushed to his car at the villa's driveway.
