Newlyweds got the wrong marriage certificate, and his sweet, delicate wife is experiencing morning s

The phone rang for a long time, but Li Jiuyuan did not answer it.

Jiang Momo's eyes dimmed for a moment, and she froze for a second. Li Yunqi noticed her movement as well.

He reached out to snatch Jiang Momo's phone.

"Who is this person?"

Could he be the man who has been threatening Momo?

Eager to know the other party's identity, Li Yunqi made even bigger moves.

Jiang Momo took two steps back, her expression wary.

"Don't come any closer!"

She scolded him, but Li Yunqi did not stop.

After all, he always believed that as long as he caught the person, he could save Momo.

However, Jiang Momo's reaction was too strong, so he had no choice but to give up for now.

Meanwhile, Jiang Momo's heart was already clenching involuntarily.

Why isn't Li Jiuyuan answering her calls?

Was this a coincidence, or... did something happen?

Jiang Momo didn't know what she was really thinking. Even though she hated Li Jiuyuan so much, when he ignored her, a bitter feeling would well up in her heart.

Before she could think it through, Jiang Momo's hand trembled as she prepared to press the call button again, but suddenly Li Yunqi's voice came from beside her ear.

"Momo, are you really leaving?"

Jiang Momo didn't speak, but her answer was written all over her face.

She didn't want to stay there for even a second longer.

Li Yunqi gave a self-deprecating laugh, his words filled with coldness and disdain.

"Alright, you can go now."

"I overestimated my importance in your heart. I thought that as long as I took care of things for you in every way, I could win you back."

"Now it seems that I was just deceiving myself. But don't worry, it's okay even if you leave. I won't say anything to Aunt Jing, and your work won't be affected at all."

Jiang Momo was taken aback.

She turned around and saw Li Yunqi's downcast eyes.

Yes, she almost forgot that without Li Yunqi, her work wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

Her original intention in coming here was to repay Li Yunqi's kindness.

If we just leave like that, wouldn't it seem incredibly ungrateful?

"you……"

Jiang Momo stammered, unsure of what to say, but her attitude had softened.

Upon seeing this, Li Yunqi was secretly delighted.

He said outwardly, "You can go now. Although I'm unfamiliar with this place, I called you here hoping you could take care of me for a couple of days. But if you really don't want to, I won't force you."

Every word and phrase is full of tact and precision.

It was as if the person who had been holding Jiang Momo's hand and preventing her from leaving just a second ago wasn't Li Yunqi at all.

If he takes a firm stance, Jiang Momo can leave with a clear conscience.

But now, seeing the other person's injured and pitiful state, Jiang Momo also wavered.

Her gaze darted back and forth between Li Yunqi and her phone, before she made another call to Li Jiuyuan.

As before, no one answered the phone.

One last try... and it turned into a shutdown.

Her expression completely darkened, and Jiang Momo pursed her lips.

Li Yunqi was also carefully observing his expression.

He was still somewhat uneasy, after all, he had taken credit for someone else's work.

The person who introduced Jiang Momo to the job wasn't herself, but at this moment it didn't matter who it was.

Actually, when Li Yunqi said those words, he was quite disgusted with himself.

How could he do such a thing?

But it seems that as long as he puts this matter in the name of love, Li Yunqi can feel at ease.

He did it all for Momo; he would do anything for Momo.

Even the most outrageous things can be forgiven.

The two sides remained deadlocked for an unknown period of time, one hesitant and the other anxiously awaiting a response.

In the end, Jiang Momo was the first to back down.

This was the last time. After repaying the favor, she left immediately, never wanting to have anything to do with Li Yunqi again in her life.

"Five days. I can take care of you here until you are discharged from the hospital. Five days should be enough."

"Really?" Li Yunqi's eyes were full of surprise. After he finished speaking, he realized that he shouldn't be so excited, and quickly changed his words: "Actually, it's okay if you want to leave."

That being said, Li Yunqi had already called his assistant and asked him to arrange a hotel for Jiang Momo.

"No need, I have a place to stay."

Li Yunqi was overjoyed and didn't listen to what Jiang Momo was saying at all. He continued to speak to himself:

"That hotel is too far away. Just let me arrange it for you."

If he weren't afraid of scaring Momo, he would even have preferred that Momo stay in the hospital.

It was a perfect reason, and Jiang Momo had no reason to refuse.

But she didn't agree immediately; she just said she needed to go back to the hotel to get her luggage first.

Taking the items was a pretense; the important thing was that Jiang Momo wanted to know where Li Jiuyuan was.

Why isn't he answering the phone? Could it be that he's really gone?

After she finished speaking, Jiang Momo could no longer contain her anxiety and left the ward in a hurry without giving Li Yunqi time to react.

She took a taxi, an express one.

It was actually a very short distance, but it felt incredibly long to her.

Back at the hotel, Jiang Momo found her room based on her memory and eagerly opened the door.

What awaited her was not the familiar figure of the man, nor those perpetually gloomy eyes.

Instead, it was all darkness.

Even though the window wasn't open, Jiang Momo still felt a gust of cold wind on her face.

Her fingers trembled slightly without her noticing.

Li Jiuyuan is really gone.

She was left alone in the city.

...So, Li Jiuyuan didn't answer the phone just now because he had already boarded the plane?

"Jiang Momo, what are you sad about?"

The tender moments from a few days ago, the memories of strolling through the night market together, are now swirling in my mind, over and over again.

Her chest felt tight, and Jiang Momo closed the door, leaning against the cold door panel.

I was completely plunged into darkness.

"You're the one who made him leave, so you have no right to be sad."

She kept reminding herself of this fact.

"Besides, didn't you hate him? Now that you don't have to see Li Jiuyuan, you should be happy."

There's no need to deliberately pander to others, nor to be constantly on edge.

Indeed, reason kept convincing her, but the more she tried to convince herself otherwise, the tighter Jiang Momo's hand pressed against her chest became.

The frequency of a heartbeat gradually weakened until it completely merged into the darkness.

……

Downstairs in the hotel.

Inside a black minivan, Li Jiuyuan's eyes gleamed with a cold light.

He rolled down the car window, looked up at the hotel floors, and his gaze settled on one of them.

"Mr. Li, would you like to go upstairs to get something?"

Secretary Lin, who was driving, noticed this keenly and then spoke up:

Li Jiuyuan remained silent for a moment, then shook his head.

"No need. What time is the rescheduled flight?"

Secretary Lin took out his phone to check it, and then said:

"It's 3 PM. You have a meeting to attend after returning to Beijing tonight. Shall we leave now?"

"Okay, let's go."

Li Jiuyuan looked away, and the car window with the privacy film rolled up. Neither of them noticed as the car drove away.

Jiang Momo walked out of the hotel entrance, dragging a suitcase.
