Chapter 498: Chapter 498: She and I are not husband and wife

In the car.

Qiao Yin was glaring angrily at the man next to her. “What are you doing? I’m not going with you. Let me out of the car. I drove here, and I intend to drive back!”

Lu Lingche nonchalantly said, “I’ll have Yu Fei drive you home later. It won’t interfere with your plans for tomorrow.”

“I don’t need it!”

Right after Qiao Yin said this, she tried to open the car door to get out.

Lu Lingche gripped her wrist tightly, and whispered, “Don’t go.”

Qiao Yin, with furrowed brows, glared at him. “Isn’t it your wedding day today, President Lu? Why are you here with me, your ex-wife, instead of spending the night with your new bride?”

Lu Lingche tightened his grip on her hand. “Why are you with that man in the middle of the night? He has no money. I’ve told you this!”

Qiao Yin was so upset by him that her chest hurt. “This is none of your business! I have no obligation to explain my life to you!”

As the two of them were arguing, the assistant had already started the car and was driving out of the hospital.

Qiao Yin’s face turned pale, but she stopped resisting: “Let someone drive my car home!”

After saying this, she threw the car keys at Lu Lingche.

She didn’t want to come back to the hospital to get her car the next morning. Her grandma would definitely get suspicious by then.

Lu Lingche caught the keys and tossed them to the driving assistant: “Get Yu Fei to drive it later.”

“Yes, President Lu.”

The car turned silent. Qiao Yin forcefully pulled her hand from Lu Lingche’s grip and moved closer to the door, putting distance between them.

She really didn’t understand what Lu Lingche was thinking.

When he was married to her, all it took was a phone call from Lan Yuyi and he would rush out to accompany her, even in the middle of a raging storm.

Now that he’s married to Lan Yuyi, he left her on their wedding night to come and find her instead.

Is there anyone weirder than him in this world?

Did he have a fight with Lan Yuyi?

Did he finally realize after marriage how deep and deceptive Lan Yuyi is?

A scornful smile appeared on Qiao Yin’s lips.

Lu Lingche deserved it. He should face this kind of retribution!

He’s such a scumbag, he should be taught a lesson by someone like Lan Yuyi.

The black Maybach drove into Qiao Yin’s residential area. She didn’t let Yuanshan drive her right up to her building; instead, she got off at another unit and walked to her building herself.

Lu Lingche also got out of the car and followed her all the way to her front door.

Qiao Yin blocked the door: “President Lu, you can’t come in.”

“Why?”

“Why? You have the audacity to ask why?”

“Lan Yuyi and I had the ceremony, but we didn’t register our marriage. She and I are not husband and wife.”

Qiao Yin was taken aback: “No registration?”

“I held the wedding for my older brother. It’s what he always looked forward to before he passed.”

Qiao Yin’s eyes widened in disbelief: “There’s such a thing as proxy marriage? You think I’ll believe that?”

“I’m not lying to you. It’s the truth.”

“I don’t care if it’s true or not. The ceremony was real and the whole country knows you’re married; newspapers and TV are full of your wedding news today! Don’t use your older brother as an excuse. If he knew, he definitely wouldn’t want you to marry Lan Yuyi for him!”

This time, Lu Lingche was silent for quite a while.

After a long time, he said softly, “My older brother might not be happy, but my parents thought he would be. The wedding was not my decision.”

“My older brother spent more than half a year preparing for the wedding. After he had everything arranged, he passed away. My parents wanted to go on with the wedding as planned, so that his efforts wouldn’t be wasted.”

“My brother had prepared everything perfectly for the wedding, and Lan Yuyi was quite happy. If she’s happy, my brother probably won’t blame me too much.”
