My Groom Ran Away

My Groom Ran Away Chapter 9.1

Ruan Zhiyin returned to her senses after a moment of stunned silence.

She walked to the sofa and sat down. Without looking at Qin Jue, she calmly said, “I believe Zhai Xu has already explained it to you."

At the end of the wedding, Ruan Zhiyin had seen Zhai Xu, and afterward, she had even received a phone call from him asking her to meet with Mother Qin.

Zhai Xu was Qin Jue’s special assistant. He was always serious about his work and able to deal with any issues. Qin Jue definitely knows what had occurred.

“I want to hear it directly from you.”

Qin Jue moved and stood still in front of her. He lowered his gaze and stared down at her as if he was interrogating her.

Ruan Zhiyin raised her gaze and calmly stared at him for a few seconds before she suddenly laughed. “What is there to say? You ran away from the wedding and I changed the groom? I think this sounds quite fair?”

Her overly casual attitude seemed to have provoked the man. Qin Jue furrowed his brows and his voice lowered. “Zhiyin, over the phone, I said to delay the wedding.

—I did not say I wanted to cancel.”

“Delay? Qin Jue, you are the one who ran away. On the day of the wedding, you and Lin Jingfei even went onto the trending topics list! What right do you have to tell me to delay it? Are you worth it?"

Most people thought that Ruan Zhiyin was gentle and kind. She was also used to controlling her emotions, and she did not like to get into meaningless disputes.

But it doesn’t mean she did not have a temper.

During the past two days, she had to deal with guests as well as worry about her grandfather. She was exhausted. Under Qin Jue’s demands, she could no longer suppress her anger from his running away from his marriage.

He was the one who did not show up, why did it seem as though he was in the right?

Qin Jue had never seen her temper flare up like this. His sword-like eyebrows furrowed and then relaxed. He felt it was better for her to be angry rather than ignore him.

When he found out that she and Cheng Yuelin had proceeded with the wedding, he completely could not accept it. After all, who could stand their lover ‘marrying’ someone else and remain calm, even if it was a fake marriage?

Qin Jue thought a lot during the time he was waiting. He understood that under those circumstances, there was nothing that she could have done. In the end, the situation ended up this way was all because of his fault for not being able to attend the wedding.

Their wedding did not mean anything. It was probably some sort of transaction.

Whatever demands and requests were made by the other party, he would solve them for her. Although the situation was a bit tricky, he would still be able to deal with the aftermath. He would even provide her with an even better wedding.

With that in mind, Qin Jue relaxed his tone and reached out a hand, placing them on her shoulders. “Zhiyin, I am very sorry. I did not expect the plane to be delayed. But there was a reason for it. Jingfei, she—"

"Enough!" Ruan Zhiyin suddenly slapped his hand away. Her voice was cold. "I have no interest in listening to matters about you and her anymore. We have already broken up. It does not matter anymore."

When he mentioned Lin Jingfei, Ruan Zhiyin reflexively felt that she would be dragged back into the suffocating atmosphere like their previous quarrels. It wasn’t easy for her to get out of it, and she definitely did not want to deal with it again.

Ruan Zhiyin took a deep breath and stopped looking at him. "You can leave now. I will change the password. But I hope that you will never come here again."

Just as she finished speaking, she remembered that she will be moving soon. So even if Qin Jue did come over, she would not have to worry.

Being told to leave, Qin Jue's face did not look good.

But he had been brought up well and he would not do anything drastic. He only furrowed his brows and stiffly said, “Let’s talk again when you are calm."

Then he turned around and left.

Soon, the sound of the door closing was heard. However, Ruan Zhiyin was still thinking about his last sentence.

Ha. That sentence again.

Both of their personalities were gentle. After every dispute, both end up keeping quiet. After some time had passed, Qin Jue would always feel that the situation had been resolved.

But how could that be possible?

In the large private room of a club, the music slowly flowed.

Dozens of men and women gathered, chatting and teasing one another. There were some famous rich second-generation from Lan Qiao city as well as some artists under Qin Entertainment.

Qin Jue silently sat to one side. His whole body gave off a ‘stay away’ aura.

He rarely participated in these sorts of activities. He was only here because Jiang Anzheng had dragged him here, saying this was organized just for him.

On one side, Jiang Anzheng had just clinked glasses with someone. He hesitated for a moment, but he still walked over to comfort his depressed friend. “Ah Jue, don’t think about it anymore. Let’s not talk about Ruan Zhiyin. If she really liked you, how could she marry someone else?”

Jiang Anzheng wasn’t simply saying good things on behalf of Ruan Zhiyin, but she really had treated Qin Jue well. Even Mother Qin, Fang Weilan, could find nothing to complain about.

After he had heard Zhai Xu say that Ruan Zhiyin and Cheng Yuelin got married, it took Jiang Anzheng two whole days before he could accept this fact.

He never would have thought that Ruan Zhiyin would dare to change the groom. Even if she could save some face by doing this, this would completely burn the bridges with the Qin family. She would face a lot of resistance if she wanted to marry Qin Jue again.
