Rebirth of Love: Jiang Ciyou's Counterattack Legend

Chapter 557 The Fire of Jealousy

Jiang Ciyou's husband was watching them hugging from a distance. The scene was like a red-hot iron, burning his heart. The flames of jealousy burned fiercely in his eyes, almost completely devouring his reason. His eyes turned red, like an enraged beast, staring at the two people hugging each other, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his knuckles turned white due to the force, and his nails were deeply embedded in his palms, but he was completely unaware.

"What are you doing? This is a public place!" He was so angry that he was shaking all over, and he rushed over with a roar. His voice was particularly abrupt in the quiet corner, and the air around him seemed to be trembling with this roar. He pulled Lu Jingchen away with great force, and the force was so great that he almost used up all his strength to pull Lu Jingchen away from Jiang Ciyou.

Lu Jingchen frowned, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes. He steadied himself, looked at the angry man in front of him with disdain, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly with a hint of contemptuous smile. "What does our conversation have to do with you? Don't forget, you were the first to betray Ciyou." His voice was not loud, but every word was like a sharp dagger, stabbing straight at the other party.

"That's our business, it's none of your business!" The husband's eyes widened with anger, and the veins on his forehead bulged like twisted earthworms. His chest rose and fell violently, and his anger made his breathing rapid and heavy, as if he would be out of breath in the next second.

"I interfere?" Lu Jingchen sneered, his eyes full of mockery, "I just don't want to see Ciyou being hurt by people like you. You are a selfish guy who abandoned her for your own benefit and now wants to come back to pester her. What qualifications do you have to criticize me?"

"Humph, you just rely on being the son of the richest man. What's so great about that?" The husband's words were full of sourness, like a grape soaked in vinegar. The jealousy had made him lose his mind. In addition to anger, there was also deep resentment in his eyes. He could not accept everything Lu Jingchen had, and he could not accept Jiang Ciyou's feelings for Lu Jingchen.

"At least I love Ciyou more than you do, and I will make her happy." Lu Jingchen said contemptuously, his eyes were firm and confident, staring straight at the other person, without any retreat. "And you? You have brought her only pain and hurt. When you abandoned her on the wedding night, you no longer had the right to appear in her life."

"What do you know? What happened between us is not as simple as you think." The husband tried to defend himself, but his voice was a little weak. He knew that the harm he had done to Jiang Ciyou could not be erased, but his self-esteem made him unwilling to show weakness in front of Lu Jingchen.

"Oh? Not simple? Then tell me, what's not simple?" Lu Jingchen raised his eyebrows, his tone full of provocation, "Is it that it's not simple that you eloped with another woman for money, or that you want to come back and use Ciyou now?"

"You..." The husband was so angry that he couldn't speak. His face turned red like a ripe tomato. His mind was in a mess. Anger and jealousy made him unable to think calmly. He could only vent his emotions blindly like a headless fly.

Jiang Ciyou watched the two of them quarreling, and felt that her head was about to explode. Her heart was filled with helplessness and irritability. The two men were like two children, arguing in front of her, putting her in an extremely embarrassing situation. "Enough! Stop arguing!" She shouted loudly, with a hint of tears in her voice. Her eyes were full of fatigue and pain. She didn't know why she was in such a situation, nor did she know how to solve it.

After saying that, she turned and ran away. Her steps were hurried and hurried, as if she was running away from a terrible nightmare. Tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision, but she didn't care about that and just ran desperately. Her skirt fluttered as she ran, like a wounded butterfly struggling in the wind.

The two men were stunned. They didn't expect Jiang Ciyou to run away suddenly. Lu Jingchen's eyes flashed with worry. He wanted to chase Jiang Ciyou, but he was afraid that this would make her more disgusted. Jiang Ciyou's husband had a complicated expression on his face. He felt both disappointed that Jiang Ciyou left and resentful of Lu Jingchen.

"It's all your fault. You scared Ciyou away!" the husband pointed at Lu Jingchen and yelled.

"Humph, you messed up, don't put the blame on me." Lu Jingchen responded coldly.

The two looked at each other again, their eyes full of gunpowder, as if they were going to quarrel again in the next second. But at this time, they were more worried about Jiang Ciyou's whereabouts, so they went in different directions to find her, and the banquet scene became more chaotic because of their farce.

The guests around were attracted by this sudden scene. They gathered around and talked about it.

"What's going on? Why are they suddenly arguing?" a lady in a gorgeous evening gown asked curiously.

"It seems like a love triangle. Jiang Ciyou is really not simple." A man wearing glasses said in a low voice.

"It's so embarrassing that such a thing happened in this kind of occasion." An elderly lady shook her head with disdain on her face.

In the crowd, several people who had business dealings with Jiang Ciyou's husband were looking at him with strange eyes. They were secretly wondering whether such a scandal would affect their cooperation with him. After all, in this social circle that values ​​reputation, such negative news could cause considerable trouble.

Jiang Ciyou's husband's face became even uglier. He was anxiously looking for Jiang Ciyou, while enduring the pointing and criticizing of people around him. He felt like a clown under the spotlight, with all his ugliness exposed.

On the other side, Lu Jingchen quickly shuttled through the crowd, his eyes constantly searching for Jiang Ciyou's figure. His heart was filled with regret. He knew that he shouldn't have been so impulsive just now. Arguing with Jiang Ciyou's husband would only make things worse. He secretly vowed to find Jiang Ciyou, apologize to her, and explain everything clearly.

At this time, Jiang Ciyou had already run to the end of a remote corridor. She leaned against the wall and gasped for breath. Her heart was beating so fast that it seemed to jump out of her chest. Her mind was in a mess, and everything that had just happened was replaying in front of her eyes like a movie. She didn't know how to face Lu Jingchen and her husband, nor did she know where to go. She felt like a ship that had lost its direction in the vast ocean and could be submerged by the surging waves at any time.

Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly heard footsteps. She raised her head and nervously looked in the direction of the sound, praying in her heart that it was not Lu Jingchen and her husband. However, fate always seemed to like to play tricks on people, and the people who came were the two people she least wanted to see. They found this place almost at the same time, and after seeing Jiang Ciyou, they both froze for a moment, and then walked towards her at the same time.

"Ciyou, are you okay?" Lu Jingchen asked with concern, his eyes full of worry and tenderness.

"Ciyou, come with me and ignore him." The husband stretched out his hand and tried to pull Jiang Ciyou.

Jiang Ciyou looked at them, a trace of despair flashing in her eyes. "Don't come over here!" She shouted loudly, her voice echoing in the empty corridor. Her body trembled slightly, like a frightened deer.

"Ciyou, please listen to my explanation." Lu Jingchen stopped and said softly.

"Explanation? What else is there to explain? You've messed up my life!" Jiang Ciyou cried, her tears flowing like beads from a broken string.

"It's his fault, Ciyou, I just want to protect you." Lu Jingchen pointed at Jiang Ciyou's husband.

"Stop talking!" Jiang Ciyou covered her ears with her hands. She didn't want to hear their quarrel anymore. She felt like she was about to collapse. All the pressure and emotions came to her heart at this moment.

The husband felt sorry for Jiang Ciyou's pain. He walked over to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say. Lu Jingchen watched silently from the side. He knew that Jiang Ciyou needed some time to calm down, so he didn't say anything.

For a moment, the corridor fell into silence, with only Jiang Ciyou's sobbing echoing in the air. This banquet was originally a joyous occasion, but because of the complicated emotional entanglements between the three of them, it turned into a stage full of drama and pain. And their story is still going on, and no one knows where it will end up.

At this moment, there was a noisy sound in the distance, as if someone was walking towards this side. The three of them became nervous, not knowing what new changes would happen. Jiang Ciyou wiped her tears, she didn't want more people to see her current embarrassing appearance. Lu Jingchen and her husband also looked vigilantly in the direction of the sound, ready to deal with possible situations. This banquet was destined to become an unforgettable turning point in their lives, whether it was good or bad, they could not escape.

As the footsteps got closer, their hearts jumped to their throats. The air around them seemed to freeze, and a tense atmosphere filled the entire corridor. They didn't know who the people were, whether they were just curious people who came to watch, or if something worse would happen. In this night full of uncertainties, every new situation could lead to a huge change in their fate.

Finally, a crowd appeared in their sight. It turned out to be some banquet staff, who were attracted by the commotion here. After seeing the three of them, the staff were a little surprised, but quickly regained their professional attitude.

"Excuse me, what happened here?" a staff member asked politely.

Lu Jingchen looked at Jiang Ciyou and her husband, then said to the staff, "It's nothing, we just had a little misunderstanding."

The staff looked at their expressions and were obviously unconvinced, but they did not ask any more questions. "Then please keep quiet and do not disturb other guests." After that, they left.

Jiang Ciyou breathed a sigh of relief. She felt like she was hovering on the edge of a cliff and almost fell into an endless abyss. She looked at Lu Jingchen and her husband, feeling helpless. "We can't keep making trouble here. This is too embarrassing." She said softly.

"Then let's find a place to have a good talk." Lu Jingchen suggested.

"What's there to talk about? I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore." Jiang Ciyou shook her head, her eyes full of determination.

"Ciyou, you can't do this. We need to make things clear." said the husband anxiously.

"I don't want to listen, you all just go away." Jiang Ciyou turned around and prepared to leave.

Lu Jingchen and her husband wanted to stop her, but they were afraid of angering her again. While they were hesitating, Jiang Ciyou had already walked away quickly. They could only look at her back, feeling lost and helpless.

This banquet was like a nightmare to the three of them. Their original life trajectories intertwined on this night, colliding with fierce sparks. And this spark not only burned themselves, but also affected the people around them. They didn't know what the future would be like, but they knew that the relationship between them had become extremely complicated and could never go back to the past.

Lu Jingchen looked at the direction where Jiang Ciyou disappeared, and secretly made up his mind. He would not give up just like that, he must let Jiang Ciyou know his feelings, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were ahead. Jiang Ciyou's husband was thinking of a new plan, he didn't want to lose Jiang Ciyou easily, he wanted to do everything he could to win her heart back, even if it meant starting a fierce competition with Lu Jingchen.

In this bustling city night, at this banquet full of luxury and hypocrisy, their love, hatred, jealousy and helplessness are infinitely magnified at this moment. The gears of fate are constantly turning, and they are involved in it and cannot extricate themselves. And this banquet will also become an indelible memory in their lives, a turning point full of drama and pain.

As time went by, the banquet continued, but people's attention seemed to be attracted by the three of them. The originally cheerful atmosphere became a little dull, and everyone was whispering and guessing about the story between them. And in some corner of this city, perhaps there are more stories quietly unfolding, like countless invisible lines, intertwined together, forming this complex and charming world.

Jiang Ciyou walked alone in the dim corridor. Her mood gradually calmed down, but the pain in her heart still existed. She didn't know where to go, nor how to face the rest of her life. She felt like a lost child, looking for a ray of light in the darkness, but always unable to find the direction. Her steps were a little heavy, and every step seemed to be saying goodbye to the past, and also like moving towards an unknown future.

Lu Jingchen and her husband also fell into deep thought. They were thinking about the relationship between themselves and Jiang Ciyou, and how to save the situation. In this night full of challenges and variables, their fate was like a candle in the wind, swaying and could be blown out at any time. But they did not give up, because they all had a persistence in their hearts for Jiang Ciyou, and this persistence made them continue to move forward in the darkness, even if there was an abyss ahead.

The farce of the banquet has not ended yet, it has only come to a temporary end. After this night, how will the lives of the three of them change, and where will their feelings go? Everything is still unknown. But one thing is certain, that is, their lives have changed because of this night, and they will have to face their deepest feelings and make difficult choices. Whether it is love, family affection or friendship, in this world full of desires and interests, they have become so fragile and precious. They will continue to struggle in this complex world and find their own happiness, even if this happiness is so far away.

In this world, everyone has their own story, and every story has its beginnings, developments, turns, and endings. The story of these three people is like a symphony of ups and downs, played in the night of this bustling city, the melody is full of love and hate, sorrow and joy, hope and despair. And the final chapter of this symphony still needs them to compose with their own actions. No matter whether the result is sweet or bitter, it will become the most precious wealth in their lives.

Because, in the world of love, there is no absolute right or wrong, only endless dedication and waiting. Their experience on this night will become an important milestone in their lives, an opportunity for them to learn to grow and cherish. As bystanders, we can only watch their story continue to develop quietly, hoping that they can find their own happy destination.
