In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 194 I love you the most, and only you
Chapter 194: Chapter 194 I love you the most, and only you
"Jinzhi, don’t you have any regrets at all?" Zhong Yu looked at Xu Jinzhi with a complex expression.
Xu Jinzhi couldn’t comprehend Zhong Yu’s feelings at that moment, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes and said dismissively, "No! What’s wrong with you?"
Zhong Yu looked at Xu Jinzhi somewhat blankly, not understanding why she would react that way.
Xu Jinzhi continued, "I’m curious, what could I possibly regret?"
"If I had kept my promise back then, if you had deliberately waited for me, then would the person standing next to you now be me?" Zhong Yu said emotionally.
Xu Jinzhi sneered coldly, her tone icy as she responded, "No!"
Zhong Yu stared at Xu Jinzhi, his face showing astonishment. He moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something but didn’t know what he should say.
Xu Jinzhi sighed, "We’re just strangers who haven’t seen each other for many years. Please don’t disturb my life."
After saying that, Xu Jinzhi took a step forward, moving past Zhong Yu and directly leaving.
"Jinzhi!" Zhong Yu turned back to look at Xu Jinzhi’s retreating figure, but Xu Jinzhi did not stop.
As Xu Jinzhi reached the corner, she saw Xie Yanchuan immediately. Any residual anger in her heart dissipated upon seeing Xie Yanchuan.
"Did you hear all that?" Xu Jinzhi asked.
Xie Yanchuan nodded, his expression very calm.
Xu Jinzhi looked at Xie Yanchuan, her eyes shifting, and without saying anything, walked over to Xie Yanchuan’s side, "Let’s go."
The two left the hotel and when they returned home, Tuantuan was already asleep. Xu Jinzhi and Xie Yanchuan checked on him in the children’s room, then quietly left.
In the bedroom, the two went to the bathroom to wash up, and by the time they both got into bed, an hour had passed.
Xu Jinzhi moved closer to Xie Yanchuan, reaching her arms around his neck, "Aren’t you going to ask me anything about Mr. Zhong?"
Xie Yanchuan, sitting there, looked at Xu Jinzhi with a doting glance and asked, "If I ask, will you tell me?"
"Of course, it’s not something I can’t talk about," replied Xu Jinzhi, very frank.
But still, even though she had nothing with Zhong Yu, she wanted to clarify things to Xie Yanchuan.
Between husband and wife, there should be no small misunderstandings or resentments.
Xie Yanchuan didn’t rush to ask anything but instead reached out to cradle Xu Jinzhi’s head and then drew closer to her, their foreheads touching.
"Did you ever like him?" Xie Yanchuan stared into Xu Jinzhi’s eyes, his voice slightly hoarse as he asked.
Zhong Yu had said that Xu Jinzhi had once promised him, after starting university, they would try dating.
He had also guessed why they hadn’t started dating in university—because Zhong Yu went abroad for his studies after high school and Xu Jinzhi didn’t accept long-distance relationships, let alone international ones, so they hadn’t gotten together.
If that was the case, then Xu Jinzhi’s earlier words, even if not a deep, marked love, must have at least come from some fondness, right?
However, Xu Jinzhi shook her head earnestly and then told Xie Yanchuan, "No."
"I never liked him, but indeed had once said that once I started university, I could consider dating him to try it out."
Xie Yanchuan blinked, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes. Before he could ask, Xu Jinzhi continued, "Because at that time, I thought he’d be quite suitable."
"I was thinking that a business marriage would be inevitable, and since Zhong Yu was pursuing me and he met the requirements, I agreed to give it a try."
"But he missed the appointment. A man who doesn’t keep his word is someone I cannot trust, so naturally, there was nothing to do with him after that."
"Just because it was suitable?" Xie Yanchuan was a bit surprised. Had Xu Jinzhi already thought that much back then?
Xu Jinzhi nodded, "Yes."
"What about me?" Xie Yanchuan thought back to his marriage with Xu Jinzhi.
Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but laugh. She knew it, even though Xie Yanchuan was usually calm, he would still get jealous!
Xu Jinzhi reached out to hold Xie Yanchuan’s face, pulling back slightly. She kissed his thin lips, firmly stating, "Of course because I like you!"
Xie Yanchuan also slightly lifted the corners of his mouth, then turned the tables, embracing Xu Jinzhi’s waist tightly and kissing her deeply.
The atmosphere in the bedroom was just right; Xu Jinzhi had completely forgotten the mess she was in when she got up this morning.
Under the dim light, sweat was forming on Xie Yanchuan’s forehead as he intensely watched Xu Jinzhi below him, and Xu Jinzhi was looking back at Xie Yanchuan.
Seemingly possessed, Xu Jinzhi reached out and wrapped her arms around Xie Yanchuan’s neck, pulling him closer. Then with a husky voice, she said, "Xie Yanchuan, I love you the most, and only you!"
Although she hadn’t loved Xie Yanchuan properly in her previous life, across two lifetimes, the only person she had ever loved was Xie Yanchuan!
She loved only Xie Yanchuan!
Xie Yanchuan’s hand was propping up next to Xu Jinzhi’s head, his hand running through her long hair, and then he kissed her again.

The news of Zhong Yu returning to the country didn’t stir any waves between Xu Jinzhi and Xie Yanchuan.
Instead, it was Song You, who was out traveling, who couldn’t contain his curiosity upon hearing the news of Zhong Yu’s return and hurriedly sent a message to Xu Jinzhi.
However, Xu Jinzhi didn’t respond to Song You but instead asked about He Jingyi!
After that, Song You stopped replying.
Initially, Xu Jinzhi suspected that Song You definitely had something to do with He Jingyi, but she didn’t have concrete evidence, and for now, Song You’s avoidance of the subject was enough to show that they indeed had issues!
Not replying now, Xu Jinzhi wasn’t in a rush; after all, Song You would have to return eventually, and she wouldn’t be able to escape from Xu Jinzhi’s grasp.
On Tuesday morning, Xu Jinzhi went to a meeting at Xie Group. Upon entering the company building, she noticed one of the elevators was under maintenance.
Xu Jinzhi slightly raised her eyebrows, then suddenly remembered an individual she had forgotten.
It was Zhao Qinghe. Two years ago, when the Zhao family wanted to explore opportunities in City A, they caught the olive branch that Xu Jinzhi threw the moment she offered it.
Only Zhao Qinghe sensed something was wrong, however, his father’s imprisonment reduced his status in the Zhao family.
Not only that, the Zhao Family even wanted to completely oust Zhao Qinghe!
But how could Zhao Qinghe just stand by helplessly? Before Xu Jinzhi could do anything, they were already at each other’s throats, dragging each other down!
