Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother Novel - Chapter 769

Chapter 769: I’m Not Married Yet, But I’m Looking forward to Her Divorce

Ever since he found out that Bruce had a relationship with Xiao Li’s sister, Zhuang Long fell into a ridiculous suspicion.

Did Bruce really love Xiao Li, or did he only treat her as a substitute?

Zhuang Long thought about it and finally could not help but pick up his phone and call Xiao Li. Xiao Li was still working overtime. In the office, the lights were on. She was wearing glasses and reading a document printed on A4 paper.

The document was quite thick, and Xiao Li had only read six to seven pages.

The phone rang for a while before Xiao Li realized that her phone was ringing.

Xiao Li did not put down the document and planned to read it while answering the call. She picked up the phone with her right hand and was surprised to see the caller ID.

Why was he looking for her?

Xiao Li chose to reject him.

She calmed down and looked at the document again. Before she finished a page, the phone rang again.

Only then did Xiao Li pick up the phone. “I’m working overtime. Long story short.” Her voice was filled with the ruthlessness of formal words.

…

Zhuang Long was stunned for a moment. For some reason, he felt that these words were a little familiar. It seemed that many years ago, when he was working in the research room, his phone rang. Seeing that it was Xiao Li, he answered impatiently and said—I’m a little busy, so I’ll make it short.

Then, the other party said, “It’s fine. You’re busy.”

When he suddenly thought of this, Zhuang Long was afraid that he had forgotten, so he asked Xiao Li, “It was probably one day four years ago. I was working in the research lab when you suddenly called me. Do you still remember?”

Xiao Li was stunned, not knowing which time he was talking about.

“Yes?” She was puzzled.

Zhuang Long said, “I replied to you at that time that I was a little busy, so I’ll keep it short. You said that you were fine and told me to be busy.” Zhuang Long told Xiao Li what he remembered. Xiao Li was quite quiet. Zhuang Long asked her, “What did you want to say when you called that time?”

After hearing his words, Xiao Li remembered this.

That afternoon was the day of her sister’s surgery. Before the surgery, she called Zhuang Long, hoping that he would accompany her to the hospital. However, Zhuang Long’s tone was very foul, so she could only give up.

However, this was a long time ago. Xiao Li pretended that she had forgotten. Even if she had not forgotten, she had to hypnotize herself to forget.

She said, “How long has it been? I don’t even remember.”

Her voice was cold, as if she really did not care.

“Is that so?” Zhuang Long asked softly. His murmuring tone seemed a little indignant.

He had a feeling that the call had made him miss something.

Xiao Li could not stand his tone. She asked him impatiently, “Did you call to ask this?” Xiao Li clicked her tongue and put down the document in her hand. The document made a sound when it touched the table.

This commotion shocked Zhuang Long.

Xiao Li said to Zhuang Long, “If that’s the case, then I’ll hang up.” Xiao Li pretended to hang up.

Zhuang Long seized the time and said, “Bruce loved your sister! You’re still going to get married to him. Aren’t you worried that he only treats you as a substitute for your sister?”

Xiao Li was silent for nearly ten seconds.

Zhuang Long looked uneasy, thinking that Xiao Li was angry.

Xiao Li suddenly said, “Ah Long, is that you?” Her tone was careful, as if she was testing something.

Zhuang Long said, “It’s me. Who else could it be?”

Upon hearing this, the anticipation on Xiao Li’s face immediately returned to indifference.

She said, “I can tell if someone really loves me.”

Zhuang Long frowned and could not help but persuade Xiao Li, “Once a woman talks about her feelings, she’s blind. Ah Li, you’d better observe Bruce properly. If he only treats you as a substitute, then marriage is easy, but divorce is not…”

Xiao Li was almost angered to death by him.

Xiao Li sneered and asked him, “We’re not married yet, and you’re already looking forward to my divorce?”

Zhuang Long was silent for a moment before agreeing shamelessly. He even said, “I still hope you’ll come back to me.”

Xiao Li lost her temper at Zhuang Long’s straightforward answer.

She suddenly asked Zhuang Long, “How did you know that I have a sister?”

Zhuang Long did not say that Fang Yusheng had told him. He skipped this question and asked Xiao Li, “Have you really decided to marry Bruce? Aren’t you afraid of regretting it in the future?”

Beep beep—

Xiao Li’s answer was to hang up.

Zhuang Long was still waiting for an answer, but instead of Xiao Li’s answer, he heard the sound of the phone being hung up…

Zhuang Long’s expression changed. He cursed and threw the phone on the bed.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Li sat behind her desk in silence. She did not read any more documents or play with her phone. She leaned back in her chair, crossed her arms, and stared at the black pattern on the wall. After a moment, she covered her face with her hands and sighed softly.

…

The next day, according to Fang Yusheng’s request, Zhuang Long brought him to the research lab to watch the fourth simulation uterus.

This rat was currently developing well and did not have any abnormal reactions.

He had already failed three times, and Zhuang Long did not expect to succeed this time. He, Fang Yusheng, and Qiao Jiusheng were all wearing pure white dustless clothes. The three of them stood outside the glass cover and stared at the little mouse in the transparent bag.

This was the first time they saw such a scene, and Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng were shocked.

This was the process of life being born. How magical.

Zhuang Long said, “I wonder how long the little mouse can survive this time. The last time, it lived inside for about ten days.” He leaned closer and observed the little mouse up close. He also said emotionally, “Think about it. It’s so magical to be able to witness the birth of a life with your own eyes.”

Qiao Jiusheng nodded and praised, “Impressive!”

Fang Yusheng did not speak, but he agreed with Qiao Jiusheng.

After leaving the research lab, Zhuang Long asked them when they planned to leave. Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng looked at each other and remained silent.

Zhuang Long was puzzled and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you too embarrassed to say it?”

Fang Yusheng was silent for a moment before saying, “Actually, we’re not only here to attend Yan Nuo’s wedding.”

“Is there anything else?” Zhuang Long was quite curious and asked the two of them, “Tell me, what are you going to do?” There were actually times when it was difficult for the two of them to say it.

Knowing that Fang Yusheng could not bear to say it, Qiao Jiusheng said, “We all received Xiao Li’s invitation…” With that said, Qiao Jiusheng saw the smile on Zhuang Long’s face disappear instantly. She hesitated for a moment before adding,” Her wedding invitation was sent to many people. ”

“Other than you, everyone else probably received it,” Fang Yusheng said.

Zhuang Long turned around and left.

He walked very forcefully, as if he was not stepping on the ground but Xiao Li’s body. Every step was filled with hatred and love.
