What, Meng Ru is his wife? Liar! Big liar! Did he not remember her at all, driving her out of the car, kissing her, humiliating her, anyone more scoundrelly than he was? No! Absolutely not!

Ji Zhanrui, the bastard! Never mind him again!

The left side of her face was swollen to a high point, the blood at the corner of her mouth was scabbed and stuck to her mouth, making her look a little scary. When she opened her mouth to cry, salty tears would always flow down the wound on the corner of her mouth, causing her to grimace in pain.

She would never mention anything they had known as children again, and if he had said they were strangers to each other, why should she be ashamed of herself?

No matter how strong or strong she was, her heart ached at the thought of his indifference and cruelty.

During this period, Wu YiCai had come in many times. The porridge beside Fang Menggru had changed again and again, but there was still no lack.

The first time, Wu Yicai came in with a bowl of lotus seed lily congee and a plate of sweet and sour cucumber. When she saw that her whole face was swollen, she hurriedly ran down to get some ice cubes, but Fang Menggru kept crying bitterly and ignored her. She did not even look at Wu YiCai when she was called, not to mention that Wu Yihong wanted to feed her the bowl of congee.

When Wu YiCai came in the second time, it was already past noon. She guessed that Fang Meng Ru was tired from crying and could take the opportunity to help her apply the ice. But she didn't expect Fang Meng Ru to have so many tears.

Wu YiCai went in and out the whole afternoon. She was determined to break her grief every time she went in and out. However, when she saw how weak her shoulders were when she was shaking, she couldn't bring herself to disturb her.

Therefore, like an ant on a hot pan, Wu YiCai could do nothing but panic.

Thus, Fang Mengru was immersed in her own world of sorrow all day long, crying. Then she grimaced in pain, and cried again and again, until in the evening, when her large eyes were filled with tears, the redness in her eyes was like two walnuts, and the redness in her cherry lips was terrifying.

The first thing he saw was a white ball curled up in the corner of the room. The little face that was exposed over the quilt was a tragic sight to behold; it was simply a small ball that couldn't be compared to the pretty face he saw in the morning.

There was a bowl of porridge and osmanthus candy on the floor beside Fang Meng Ru. That bowl of porridge was still steaming, obviously Wu Yi Cai had come into the room to check on the situation every now and then, but this girl was too immersed, so she didn't eat for the whole day.

"Come here." Ji Zhanrui hung his suit jacket on a hanger and took out a medicine kit from the drawer of his bedside cabinet. He patted on the side of the bed and motioned for Fang Menggru to come over.

When Fang Meng Ru, whose mind was wandering about, heard Ji Zhan Rui's voice, she immediately raised her head. Her swollen eyes narrowed a little as she looked at him. After confirming that she wasn't hallucinating, she angrily moved closer to the corner.

This woman must have been a mushroom in his previous life. Otherwise, why would she hug her blanket and hide in a corner every morning and night?

Ji Zhanrui was in low spirits because Fang Meng Ru's clumsy and cute appearance had been completely swept away.

Sure enough, she was still angry, but who told her to be a little more gentle and explain it to him? Ji ZhanRui shook his head and sighed helplessly. His warning to her earlier had long been thrown away. He walked up to her and carried her on his shoulder. After a few steps, he threw her on the bed.

She hadn't eaten in a day and a night. After crying, Fang Meng Ru's body was severely injured. Even though Ji Zhan Rui had a quilt protecting her body, she still felt dizzy and was unable to get up.

"Mother Wu said you haven't eaten all day." Ji Zhanrui gently pinched her lower lip. He had used too much strength in the morning. The corner of his mouth was cracked from teeth, and the scar was a little red and swollen. Dry blood was still hanging from her mouth.

"A cold compress doesn't hurt that much." Before Ji Zhanrui went upstairs, Wu YiCai specifically gave him two ice bags, and he carefully put one of them on her face. When he saw the obvious difference in her left and right face, he felt guilty.

The cold pierced through her skin, causing her to shiver. She could not help but roll her eyes at Ji Zhanrui, but her eyes were so swollen that she could barely keep them open. Therefore, Ji Zhanrui did not even see her white eyes.

Ji Zhanrui knew that she was sulking and ignored him. He placed a hand on her shoulder, placed her head on his lap, and picked up a handkerchief. He folded it and placed another bag of ice over her eyes.

"You slapped me twice this morning, two to one. Can we make peace?" Ji Zhanrui acted as if he was coaxing a child.

What two to one? Do you think it's playing basketball or mahjong? What peace? What strength did he exert on her? It made him feel like he was being wronged. Please, this wasn't the only thing she was angry about, okay?!

Fang Meng Ru was too lazy to respond, she repeated to herself: "He doesn't know me, I don't know him. We are just strangers that we've met a few times before."

Ji Zhanrui was already lowering his voice, but Fang Meng Ru was lying motionlessly on his lap, not giving him a chance to react. This made him feel depressed: "Fang Meng Ru, I'm your young master, shouldn't you be the one to coax me?"

Fang Meng Ru tore off the ice cube in her eyes and threw it on the ground. Her large eyes were no longer as embarrassed as they were just now. She jumped up from the bed, and without caring about the bag of ice on her face, she placed her hands on her hips and angrily glared at Ji Zhan Rui.

"…" Fang Meng Ru opened her mouth to curse, and Zhang He's small mouth immediately ripped open the wound at the corner of her mouth. She could not make any sounds with her hoarse voice, and she immediately bent over in pain, tears glistening at the corners of her eyes.

"Can't speak?" Ji Zhanrui did not expect Fang Menggru to have a comical expression on her face after she had jumped up in anger. If it wasn't for the fact that she was angry, he would have laughed out loud by now.

Fang Meng Ru covered her neck, and after being stunned for two to three seconds, she tried to speak again. However, no sound came out, so she could only look at Ji Zhan Rui with a dejected expression.

"That's fine too." Thinking about how Fang Meng Ru looked like as if she was from the north, Ji Zhan Rui was glad that she couldn't make a sound. Otherwise, his house would have been destroyed by her Lion's Roar.

What's better? It was not good at all! She couldn't scold him, couldn't fight him, and Ji Zhanrui's single sentence was enough to make her choke to the point that she couldn't even breathe.

"Put this in your mouth." Ji ZhanRui ignored her protest. He took out the anti-inflammatory and analgesic tablets from the medicine box, and held a green pill in his hand. Then, he placed it in front of Fang Meng Ru's mouth.

Humph, you did it yourself. Fang Meng Ru rolled her eyes and obediently opened her little mouth. Her two canines were emitting a ferocious light. Before Ji Zhan Rui could reach out his hand, she bit his finger and bit his finger. She didn't forget to take the pill from his hand.

Strangely, as soon as the medicine entered her mouth, a refreshing feeling spread out. The wound at the corner of her mouth didn't feel as painful, and her throat felt moist and comfortable. After a while, Fang Meng Ru's teeth loosened.

"Little girl, how dare you bite me?" Ji wanted to pull her cheek to show her some color, but when his gaze touched her swollen left cheek, he only lightly tapped the tip of her nose.

This time round, Fang Meng Ru looked at him with disdain, using her sleeves to rub her nose with all her might, wishing that she could rub off a layer of skin. How much of her dislike did she have for him?

"School is about to start. You don't want to go to school with a hoarse voice, do you?" He took her hand and led her to the bathroom.

School... Fang Meng Ru frowned. She had nothing to offer for her school fees, living expenses, and miscellaneous expenses.

Ji Zhanrui soaked his towel in warm water. After wringing it half dry, he lightly wiped away the tears on her face and nonchalantly said, "I've already paid the tuition fees for you."

What was their relationship? Why should he pay for her? Fang Meng Ru raised her head and looked at him with eyes filled with doubt. Didn't he say he wouldn't let her do this in the morning? Why would they...

Which one of them was the real him? Or maybe every one of them was him, and he had forgotten her, but had known her from an unexpected encounter.

"From now on, you have to listen to me obediently." His focused expression, gentle eyes, and handsome face attracted her attention.

"As long as I can finish university, I'll be fine." Fang Menggru nodded like a chick pecking rice grains, blinking her half-opened eyes.

"Go down and eat." Seeing that her foppish face had finally become clean, Ji Zhanrui was very satisfied as he held her hand and walked downstairs.
