Chapter 103: She Does Not Love Him
She does not love him.
This was the first thought that surfaced in Jiang Cheng's mind.
That is why she could speak of this matter so lightly.
But she does not know that she...
At the same time, Si Han stubbed out the cigarette in his hand.
Although he had just comforted his younger sister that it was fine, only those who had experienced that dark period understood how terrifying power could be.
The last time the Si Family had been hollowed out was precisely because of such a report.
Although more than twenty years had passed, no member of the Si Family had forgotten the scene from that time.
At that time, his wife, in order to stand with him through thick and thin, did not hesitate to cut ties with her maiden family, and only began to contact them again slowly when the Si Family returned to its former glory.
"If something really happens, let's get a divorce!"
Tian Chang glared at the man in front of her.
In the twenty-plus years since they married, she had brought up divorce many times.
But this was the first time Si Han had mentioned divorce.
She used her hands to cup Si Han's chin, making him look at her.
"Si Han, although we bicker and fight, we have lived together for so many years. Today, I want a straight answer from you: are you asking for a divorce because you don't love me?"
If that were the case, then let's divorce.
She did not want to spend the rest of her life guarding a man whose heart was not with her.
Si Han looked at her; the woman before him was nearly fifty, her youth long gone, yet he was familiar with every wrinkle on her face.
He could not bring himself to say he did not love her.
If he did not love her, who could force the Second Young Master of the Si Family to take a wife?
"Speak!" Tears shimmered in Tian Chang's eyes, yet she was still smiling.
Si Han deliberately kept a cold face.
"I understand. A divorce is fine too. I'll set you free to go chase your true love!"
Tian Chang let go of him, feigning ease, "Don't leave your socks lying around anymore; I won't be waiting on you anymore."
Her hand was suddenly grabbed.
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
"Don't you understand?" Tian Chang decided to be blunt, "We divorce, and you go find Ming Zi."
"You make yourself clear! Why would I go find her?"
Tian Chang's emotions suddenly collapsed, "Si Han! We are about to get a divorce, can't you tell me one honest word? You've lived with me for so many years, hasn't there always been another woman hidden in your heart?"
"Hidden your mother!" Si Han cursed in anger, "Has your brain been kicked by a donkey?"
"Then why are you so concerned about Ming Zi? Look at how anxious you got when her husband died!"
Si Han rubbed his temples, "She is a good friend of my younger sister; that is the only relationship we have now. If you think I was anxious, it would only be because of my younger sister."
He explained with such solemnity.
"So, the woman you've always kept hidden in your heart isn't her?"
The knot in Tian Chang's heart that had persisted for years finally loosened a little.
"Then who is it?"
"It's a pig!" Si Han said irritably.
Being pestered by this woman, he had almost forgotten his main business of proposing a divorce.
Tian Chang:...
It was her.
Because Si Han always scolded her for being a pig.
"Then why have you never said you loved me?"
"I have also never shouted that I want to breathe air; does that mean I don't breathe?"
Tian Chang buried her head in his chest, a sweet smile on her face, "I love you, let's not divorce!"
Si Han also slowly pulled his silly wife into his arms.
If the Si Family were branded as black capitalists again, she would definitely implicate Jiang Cheng.
Although she had only been to the military base once, Si Rong could feel Jiang Cheng's high spirits when he was there.
His future was far beyond what it was today.
In any case, they were only engaged and had not yet had any real relations; it was still in time to call off the engagement.
This was Si Rong's true thought; she couldn't drag Jiang Cheng into the water if something happened, only to watch his career go downhill later and wait for him to hold a grudge.
Her second thought was that Jiang Cheng seemed to be angry.
Looking at his narrow, phoenix-like eyes, they were slightly red, and his expression was complex and hard to describe.
"What do you take me for?"
Jiang Cheng pulled the handbrake, and before Si Rong could react to the meaning of his words, he forcefully gripped the back of her head with one hand and kissed her.
This kiss was incredibly intense.
Soon, Si Rong felt suffocated and subconsciously pushed against his chest.
But she couldn't push him away at all!
Her strength before the man was like a mayfly trying to shake a giant tree.
The man kissed her fiercely, and a metallic taste of blood spread between their lips.
He bit Si Rong.
Si Rong frowned slightly, unable to fully bear it.
After a moment, Jiang Cheng finally let her go.
The man's eyes were filled with desire, his lips rubbed raw and flushed with a decadent hue, as he used his rough thumb to stroke Si Rong's injured lip corner, "Rongrong, remember this wound; this is a punishment."
A punishment for her not taking their relationship seriously.
Si Rong panted lightly, her eyes flicking up to cast a reproachful glance at the man.
Ungrateful wretch!
She was only doing it for his own good!
Forget it, forget it; anyway, she had already said everything she needed to say.
She just hadn't expected Jiang Cheng to step on the gas and take her to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
It wasn't even eight o'clock yet, and the Civil Affairs Bureau hadn't opened for work.
"You brought your ID card, right?"
Jiang Cheng took his ID card out of his wallet.
The two hundred yuan that Si Rong had tucked inside last time was still lying there quietly, and no matter when he saw it, his heart felt warm.
From now on, he was also a man who had a wife to give him pocket money on time.
Therefore, Si Rong shouldn't even think about running away.
"We, coming here, are for...?"
Si Rong felt the development of events had left her a bit dazed.
According to their previous plan, they were supposed to get married first and then register the marriage.
"To register."
Jiang Cheng suddenly felt that being legal was very important.
At least with that piece of paper, Si Rong wouldn't be able to casually say "let's just call it off" anymore.
Si Rong:...
"Are you two also here to register?"
A young girl asked, her big, round eyes full of curiosity.
Si Rong nodded, "Yes, are you two as well?"
"Mm-hmm."
"Happy wedding!"
"You too!"
The girl held her partner's arm and walked to the side before starting to whisper, "Looking at their age, it looks like a second marriage."
"But they are a very good match!"
Both of them had outstanding appearances, and even their temperaments were somewhat similar.
After the Civil Affairs Bureau opened, they were led directly into an office.
The Deputy Director was a comrade-in-arms of Jiang Cheng.
That comrade-in-arms sized Si Rong up several times, and finally pulled Jiang Cheng aside alone.
"Do you know that she is on her second marriage?"
Jiang Cheng was displeased, "Are you looking down on second marriages?"
"No, buddy, isn't this because I'm worried you're being deceived? We had a classmate before, the woman hid her second marriage to marry him, and it ended up quite unpleasant."
"I know, just process it!"
Everything about Si Rong, he knew.
Thus, the Deputy Director personally helped them process their marriage certificate.
A lifelong bachelor is finally getting married; it really makes one sigh with emotion!
Holding the marriage certificate in her hand, Si Rong finally had the sense of reality of being in a second marriage.
She was now the legitimate Mrs. Jiang.
Sitting back in the car, thinking of that intense kiss, Si Rong still felt a bit awkward.
However, at this juncture of registering the marriage, she really couldn't feel happy.
Given the current situation at home, she suddenly thought of someone.
Everything was fine, so why would someone suddenly investigate their Si Family?
"It must be Shen Lan and Li Xuan!" Si Rong suddenly grabbed Jiang Cheng's hand urgently, "They are the ones who harmed the Si Family!"
The two of them are far more hateful than you think...
Si Rong recalled the words her future self had said during the last Future Phone call, only she hadn't thought deeply about them at the time.
