Tangling with the Western Commander-Chapter 354 - 351
Chapter 354 -351
She didn’t even glance back, focusing solely on herself.
After plopping down into the seat, she closed the car door, sat in the passenger seat hugging her small backpack, buckled her seatbelt, and remained silent.
Lu Xiao shot her a glance to make sure her seatbelt was fastened, then started the car again and demanded sternly, “What happened?”
Li Zaijun hung her head, silent.
With her short, ear-exposing haircut, her pale neck was visible as she bowed her head.
“Li Zaijun!”
As Wen Xian saw he was being a bit too harsh, she was about to speak up to intervene when she heard Li Zaijun suddenly become emotional, her voice hoarse as she shouted loudly:
“Leave me alone! I don’t want to talk!”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao’s temples throbbed slightly. He took a deep breath and said, “Can’t you speak nicely? Didn’t you see your sister-in-law sitting behind us?”
“It doesn’t matter that my sister-in-law is sitting behind me—I—” Her impulsive words halted midway after she realized what her brother had just said, and she choked on the rest of her sentence.
Then, she turned her head abruptly.
Her eyes, now reddened, met Wen Xian’s concerned gaze.
After a second, two seconds of eye contact—
Li Zaijun suddenly burst into tears, sobbingly saying, “Sister-in-law…”
Seeing her at that moment, all the repressed, painful emotions inside seemed unable to be contained any longer.
She tossed her backpack aside, unbuckled her seatbelt—her brother was still driving, but heedless, she arose and squeezed through the space between the seats.
She collapsed right into Wen Xian’s embrace in the back.
Wen Xian kept soothing her. Seeing her cry made her own heart ache, not needing to guess that Li Zaijun must have suffered greatly to break down like this.
“Come on, stop crying. If you don’t want to talk, then don’t. It’s not worth it, not worth it at all. There are plenty of good men out there, if one doesn’t work, we’ll find another.”
Lu Xiao, who was driving: “…”??
Why did that sound so familiar?
He was about to reprimand Li Zaijun for ignoring road safety rules, but seeing her weeping convulsively in Wen Xian’s arms, so pitiful, he decided to hold back.
Eventually, he sighed in resignation.
Li Zaijun, however, lay sobbing in her arms, her tearful eyes pleading as she said:
“No, I will tell. That bastard, I don’t ever want to be with him again, he disgusts me!”
Wen Xian felt a shudder at her core. She didn’t understand the relationship between the two, so she refrained from passing judgment and simply said:
“Follow your heart; if you don’t want to be together, don’t force yourself.”
But she had vaguely heard something just now—had she heard words like ‘sleeping together’?
Sure enough, the next second, Li Zaijun, her eyes red, her teeth clenched in anger, said:
“He’s been with me for two years, always wanting to sleep with me, but I thought it was too early, so I refused. He said he would respect me, and at first, I even thought he was a good person.
But he, oh he, was hooking up with girls outside all this time I was rejecting him, even girls from their student council—hooked up with a junior and sent the photos of them in bed to my phone!”
As she spoke, she couldn’t help her tears from falling:

“He’s so disgusting! Makes me want to throw up! Now that I’ve discovered this and confronted him, he actually has the nerve to say it’s because I didn’t satisfy him, claiming he loves me and that it was only his body sleeping with other women.”
Utterly shameless!!
If he broke up with her, he was free to see whoever he wanted. But the fact was—
