My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away！-Chapter 36: Revised - Misunderstanding

The icy rain hit her face. She never knew that summer rain could be so cold.

The night was deep, and it was hard to hail a cab. Lin Yixun stared blankly at the empty road ahead, her gaze dropping helplessly.

The rain grew heavier, pounding on her bare toes. The chill spread from her soles to her limbs and bones, freezing even her heart bit by bit.

She hugged her arms tightly, trying to retain a sliver of warmth, but her teeth couldn’t stop chattering. She moved with the difficulty of a seventy-year-old woman, step by step along the roadside. Her frail body swayed in the rain as if it could collapse at any moment.

This scene happened to catch Ouyang Hao’s eye. His gaze lingered on Lin Yixun’s bathrobe for a few seconds before he pieced together most of the story. A mocking smile curved his lips.

What’s wrong, the deal didn’t go smoothly?

He initially intended to walk up and mock Lin Yixun but then felt it would be pointless. Somehow, a bit of irritation rose in his heart.

He pulled out his phone, found a name in the contact list, and dialed it.

Soon, a gentle female voice answered from the other end. Ouyang Hao raised his eyebrow and nonchalantly asked, "Are you free tonight?"

Unsurprisingly, he got an invitation from the woman. Ouyang Hao chuckled softly, a touch of disdain in his laugh. It seemed it would be another boring night.

Through the windshield, he glanced indifferently at Lin Yixun, the smile on his lips gradually fading. He slammed the gas pedal, and the red sports car revved up to a hundred miles per hour, zooming past Lin Yixun and leaving her far behind.

Lin Yixun finally managed to get a cab. The driver stared at her like she was a monster for a while before finally letting her in. By the time she got home, it was already past midnight.

She slowly walked into the bathroom, the clothes peeling off her body. She adjusted the water temperature to the highest, tilted her head back, closed her eyes, and let the scalding liquid fall on every inch of her skin.

Pain spread from her nerve endings to her limbs and bones, and those heart-wrenching memories surged at her like a flood. She leaned weakly against the wall, unable to hold back any longer, and squatted down, hugging her head and sobbing.

.....

Ouyang Hao was originally prepared to spend a passionate night with the beauty, but at the critical moment, Lin Yixun’s deadpan face suddenly flashed in his mind.

What the hell!

He pushed the beauty in his arms away, got out of bed, and left without looking back, leaving the beauty stomping in anger.

Ouyang Hao was in a foul mood, and those around him naturally bore the brunt of it. Coincidentally, he had no schedule today, so Lin Yixun became the first person he targeted.

With a creak, the apartment door opened. Ouyang Hao looked over following the sound and unsurprisingly saw Lin Yixun’s figure at the entrance.

But today... is she wearing a turtleneck sweater in the middle of summer?

Ouyang Hao squinted, realizing it was colder today but not that cold, right?

Suddenly, a sneer appeared on his lips. "Oh, are you preparing for winter?"

Lin Yixun’s body stiffened, a flash of pain in her eyes. She didn’t say anything, merely moved her steps slowly and staggeringly towards the storage room.

Her steps were slow, almost wobbly. Ouyang Hao watched her and couldn’t help but sneer. It seemed last night was quite intense.

Having spent so many years in the entertainment industry, Ouyang Hao had seen all kinds of people—the despicable, the opportunistic, those who would do anything for fame—but he had never seen someone as two-faced as Lin Yixun.
