Chapter 244: Return to Jiangcheng

The night deepens, Lu Jingxing sits on the sofa.

In the darkness, he lights one cigarette after another.

He used to not have a heavy addiction to smoking, but ever since Wen Nuan died, his addiction has been getting worse.

Lu Jingxing looks around at the familiar furnishings in the room; not a single item has been moved or changed.

Even the food in the refrigerator is replaced with fresh items daily, but it is always the same as on the day Wen Nuan left.

He keeps everything here in its original state.

As if trying hard to freeze time on that day.

As if Wen Nuan is still here, as if she never left.

…

Cheng Jingshu's belly is now prominently swollen, and as the months pass, her temper becomes bigger and bigger.

Ever since that little bitch died, she has rarely seen Lu Jingxing at home.

On the rare occasions he comes back, he only stays in the study and never sets foot in the master bedroom.

To him, she seems less like a wife and more like an enemy.
