My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 179

At noon, looking up between the hard job, Kerry Ye found the cloudburst outside of the floor-to-ceiling windows along with the rumble of thunder.

The weather of Sky City in summer was like running in random code as there’s no telling whether it would be sunny or rainy in the next second.

Kerry stopped working, rubbing his sour eyes, and was going to have lunch at the canteen when the phone rang, an unfamiliar number.

“Hello, this is Kerry’s speaking.” He received the call while walked outside.

“Kerry, it’s me.” Xinyou Qiao’s voice came over the phone, mixed with the rustle of the storm.

He frowned and asked indifferently, “What’s the matter?”

“Kerry, I go to work at Yidu today. The colleagues are nice to me. Thank you for helping me to get the job, I want to invite you to dinner.” Her voice sounded cheerful.

“It’s alright. Go get on the ball, I need to hang up for my business.” Kerry got out of the phone directory without waiting for Xinyou’s response, he was not the hesitated type.

He had believed that she should get his point by learning from his clear attitude, but he met her at the door of the company when he was going home in the afternoon.

Xinyou wore in a floral dress with the ends of her long hair wettened by the rain, seeing Kerry’s presence, she approached him and smiled, “I’ll buy you dinner, Kerry.”

In face of such a headache, Kerry said in a nonchalant tone, “I’ve told you that you don’t need to do so.”

“But I just want to show you my gratitude.” Xinyou looked at him expectantly.

“Xinyou, I don’t need your gratitude and this is the last thing I will do for you. I hope that you can keep it in mind.” Said Kerry coldly, trying to stop her from pestering him.

Obviously, she came with adequate mental preparation and was unconcerned with his words, “Kerry, I won’t bother you anymore, I just want to buy you dinner, why do you regard it as a turn-off?”

At this moment, the car was parked before him, and Kerry opened the door and said, “Xinyou, don’t come to look for me again.” Then he sat the car and left.

Staring at the black car rushing in the heavy rain, she gritted her teeth and ran after it. She didn’t believe that Kerry would have the heart to see her chasing after the car in the rain.

As the rain continued to pour down, Xinyou was drenched the second she ran into the rain. The raindrops hit her face bitterly, but she didn’t care about it as the only thing she wanted to do was to stop the car. For this, she could do anything.

It rained non-stop all day. The water on the street rose to the height of her legs. Xinyou chased after the distant car with great efforts and fell into the water accidentally.

Tears of grievance poured down her face and mixed with the rain. Seeing the black car disappeared in the field of vision, Xinyou felt that she abandoned herself to despair as if being deserted by everyone.

Why did he treat her so cruelly?

God, now that you bestowed me a new life, why don’t you let my dreams come true?

Xinyou, sitting in the rain, burst into cry and ignored the curious looks from the bystanders.

A few minutes later, the car stopped before her, and she heard the most moved and beautiful voice in the world.

“Get in the car.”

Xinyou wiped her tear. She looked at the serious face of Kerry before her, the extinguished fire within her burned again……

Kerry handed her a dry towel without a word.

After a drive to a café, Kerry sat on a booth with Xinyou who was drenched with rain and asked the waiter for two cups of hot coffee.

“Xinyou, let’s get it straight today. Listen, I love Venus Mu, she’s my one and only for my life, so you don’t need to waste your heart on me anymore, I won’t respond to your love. Else, even though I had had a crush on you, it’s over, do you understand?” Kerry said seriously.

Although it was summer, Xinyou was shivering since she had got wet in the rain for such a long time and her lips turned white, “Kerry, she won’t come back, why do you keep waiting for her?”

Kerry leaned against the sofa, gazing at her with arms folded, “How do you know that Venus won’t come back? I remembered that I told you she was to engage in further study.”

Xinyou bit her lower lip, feeling her heart torn asunder, and said in a sad tone, “Kerry, do you know that your obsession with Venus is the same as mine to you? Why don’t you choose me? Did you forget that fantastic night we spend together?”

With his eyes darkened, Kerry said icily, “Xinyou, sometimes I would rather not look for you so that at least you’re perfect in my mind. You destroy it by yourself. Now, it’s my last bit of love for you that enables me to endure sitting here and talking with you. From now on, you and I will no longer have anything to do with each other.”

“Is that because of Yan Chu?” Xinyou asked him loudly, and her words stopped him leaving, “Is it because she resembles Venus that you prefer a substitute rather than me?”

Kerry turned around and looked at her condescendingly, “Xinyou, I will never choose you even without Yan. Besides, you’d better not to offend her for that if you dare to touch a hair of her head, I’m afraid those guys in Hongkong will let you suffer living death without having me made my move.”

Xinyou stared at him and didn’t dare to say a word.

“And I withdraw my words that you can call me when you’re in trouble. Don’t call me or meet me anymore. Because your presence occurs to me what I have done to Venus. I fear that I can’t control my desire to kill you.”

After he left for a while, Xinyou recovered from the extreme fears. She read his intention to kill her in his eyes and it was true.

The bubble finally burst, and Xinyou sat down weak and limp on the sofa.

What should she do?

She came back for Kerry, but the man was so cruel that he was not even willing to give her a chance.

All right, let all of us end in misfortune. I can’t get him, neither none of you.

……

The cloudburst continued for two days and the sky didn’t clear up until the third day. People cracked jokes that if the rainy days kept going on, everyone could only go to work by boat.

Venus stretched her back and felt quite confused. She expected that Xinyou would appear at her door soon, but three days passed, where was the woman?

Had she changed?
