The Temptation of CEO's Pregnant Ex-Wife
Chapter 395: Heard You Remarried Zhou Lin?

Chapter 395: Chapter 395: Heard You Remarried Zhou Lin?

Cheng Zhiwei’s heart sank, Mingzhu He’s malicious intentions—she didn’t know what she had instilled in Zhou Ruoki’s mind.

She just knew that Zhou Ruoki had been acting strangely.

Mingzhu He... If she couldn’t marry Zhou Lin, she would spout nonsense to a child.

Cheng Zhiwei silently returned to her room and after hesitating for a long time, she still called He Ye, "Can you arrange a meeting with Mingzhu He for me?"

She wanted to ask Mingzhu He in person what exactly she had said to Zhou Ruoki.

He Ye agreed, but still couldn’t help but ask in a low voice at the end, "I heard you remarried Zhou Lin?"

Even if Cheng Zhiwei didn’t let Zhou Lin throw a party, the ring on his left ring finger these days was kind of a public statement.

He Ye knew it was just a matter of time.

Cheng Zhiwei felt extremely guilty, "I’m sorry, senior."

The call was quickly ended.

But soon, He Ye sent over the time and place.

Cheng Zhiwei was filled with gratitude, and she couldn’t help but smile.

Zhou Lin pushed the door open and saw the smile on Cheng Zhiwei’s face.

A smile that was exceedingly rare these days.

Since moving in here, apart from being gentle and attentive with the children, she was indifferent to others, especially to him, almost to the point of being indifferent.

Even though they had already shared a bed.

Yet her heart still remained like a stone.

Such a smile... for whom, for what?

He couldn’t help but ask, "What’s so funny?"

Cheng Zhiwei put away her phone and turned to leave, "Nothing."

Three words, sufficiently indifferent.

Passing by each other.

Zhou Lin’s expression darkened.

The next afternoon, Cheng Zhiwei met with Mingzhu He.

Mingzhu He held a coffee, gracefully savoring it, her gaze sharp. Seeing Cheng Zhiwei, she curved her lips into a smile, "Did Xiao Ye say you were looking for me?"

Cheng Zhiwei sat opposite her with an expressionless face and got straight to the point, "What did you say to Qiqi?"

Mingzhu He raised an eyebrow, not caring, "Zhou Ruoki?"

"He contacted you with his phone watch, didn’t he? Telling him to stay at home, what are you planning to do?" Cheng Zhiwei was full of anger, unable to control her emotions when it involved children.

Mingzhu He snapped her fingers, called the waiter over, and ordered a coffee for Cheng Zhiwei.

Then she leisurely said, "Miss Cheng, I recall you and Xiao Ye broke up. Does Zhou Lin know you’re contacting him?"

"Really? What if Zhou Lin finds out about what you’ve done, do you think the cooperation between your two families would still continue?" Cheng Zhiwei retorted strongly, "You should know his personality, right? He’d rather wrongfully kill than let go."

Mingzhu He’s indifferent smile was broken, her expression gradually darkening, "Cheng Zhiwei, such a brilliant man like him, how could someone like you be worthy of him."

She never understood how Zhou Lin could fall for Cheng Zhiwei, a man like him, immensely capable, ought to be heartless and focus entirely on building his business empire.

Not fall in love with someone without background, without capability, someone who only knew how to cry when trouble arose.

Strong alliances through marriage was the basic rule of this circle.

Mingzhu He was proud; she had taken over the entire He family step by step, how could she stand her beloved man liking such an unworthy woman.

Cheng Zhiwei lifted her coffee and threw it in her face, disgusted, "Miss He is such a success just by these sly schemes, such a pity outsiders praise you for being astute and capable."

Mingzhu He hadn’t expected Cheng Zhiwei to disregard decorum entirely and act like a shrewish woman, furiously wiping her face with a napkin before standing up and slapping her.

However, her hand was stopped mid-air.

Mingzhu He angrily said, "You dare stop me."

He Ye pulled Cheng Zhiwei behind him, his face expressionless as he faced Mingzhu He, "Sister, that’s enough."

" He Ye, you dare to help her?" Mingzhu He coldly scolded him, "Have you forgotten who you’re working under now?"

"Or have you forgotten that she is now Zhou Lin’s wife?" Mingzhu He mocked, "He Ye, don’t make me look down on you."

He Ye was about to speak, but Cheng Zhiwei had already slapped Mingzhu He’s face.

Using all her strength.

It was too late for He Ye to stop her.

Cheng Zhiwei stood in front of Mingzhu He, sneering, "Don’t let me find out you’re inciting him with nonsense again, otherwise, wait for Zhou Lin to come after you."

She pulled He Ye by the wrist and quickly left.

Mingzhu He, furious, face turning livid, smashed a cup on the table.

Once outside the store, Cheng Zhiwei let go of his hand and apologized, "I’m sorry for dragging you into this."

She had only intended to warn Mingzhu He, but Mingzhu He’s haughty demeanor was simply disgusting. Thinking of how Zhou Ruoki might have been influenced by her, she couldn’t help but get physical.

She hadn’t expected He Ye to be there.

He Ye’s eyes reddened, his hand grabbed Cheng Zhiwei’s and tried to pull her closer, yet he restrained himself.

Cheng Zhiwei felt guilty towards him, but he repeatedly helped her despite past grievances, warming her heart yet making her feel awkward.

The edge in her voice gravelly, "Senior..."

He Ye had already let go and stepped back, his bitterness palpable, "He wronged you before, and now he wants to make it up to you, he’ll treat you better, that’s good."

"It’s not like that, Senior, we..." Cheng Zhiwei started, wanting to explain.

He Ye was the person she trusted the most, there were things she could tell him.

But her words were interrupted by another voice.

"Big Brother He." Wen Yi’s voice came.

Cheng Zhiwei abruptly stopped talking, looking up at Wen Yi.

A young, beautiful girl.

That was the life He Ye should have.

She stepped back, quickly whispering, "Wen Yi is a nice girl."

He Ye’s face turned pale, his teeth clenched, "Of course I know she’s nice."

Wen Yi had already approached, seeing Cheng Zhiwei, her lips pursed, "Sister Zhiwei."

Then looking at He Ye, she urged, "If we don’t leave now, we’ll miss the flight."

Cheng Zhiwei was startled, asking without thinking, "Where are you going?"

"She’s now my fiancée, I’m taking her home."

Wen Yi quickly explained, "Sister Zhiwei, please don’t misunderstand, He Ye and I are just..."

"Let’s go, Wen Yi, we don’t need to explain too much to outsiders," He Ye said coldly, walking to the car.

Then turning around lightly, "As for offending Mingzhu He, you don’t need to worry, I’ll handle it."

The car drove away.

Wen Yi sighed, her clean face full of helplessness, "Big Brother He, we’re just pretending, deceiving uncle is enough, you should have told Sister Zhiwei, otherwise she’ll misunderstand."

He Ye glanced through the rearview mirror at the black car not far away, his voice pain-stricken, "It’s okay."

Since she had chosen Zhou Lin again, he respected her.

"It’s just tough on you to act along with me."

Wen Yi pursed her lips, her posture upright against the seatback, "I’m willing."
