Sending the Groom to Jail on My Ex-Girlfriend’s Wedding

Chapter 40

“Su Xuan, why are you here?”

A surprised voice sounded in his ear. Su Xuan frowned and looked over, and his expression changed.

He and Zhao Ruoxi were chatting quite well. From a friend’s point of view, Zhao Ruoxi was a very suitable person to be a friend.

Although the blind date this time did not succeed, they could still be friends. Su Xuan suggested that they come for a meal. After this meal, everyone could go their separate ways.

When others asked, they would just say that they are not interested in each other.

Zhao Ruoxi also hit it off with him. The two of them casually picked a restaurant and drove over.

However, Su Xuan did not expect to meet his ex-girlfriend as soon as he entered the door.

His expression did not look too good. He brought Zhao Ruoxi and walked forward, completely ignoring Qin Shuyi, who was standing at a corner and looking at him in shock.

Zhao Ruoxi looked at him and did not seem to have any intention of getting involved.

They might have gone on a blind date, but they had already agreed that they would treat it as if it never happened after this and remain friends. As such, she had no business meddling in Su Xuan’s love life.

Yes, his love life.

When she entered the door, Qin Shuyi saw the shock in her eyes and a flash of jealousy.

“Su Xuan!”

Seeing Su Xuan walking past her with another woman by his side, Qin Shuyi couldn’t believe it. He didn’t even acknowledge her presence. She felt embarrassed and shouted, “What’s the deal with that woman? Why did you bring her here?”

Qin Shuyi was feeling anything but good at this moment. She had thought she had managed to grasp a golden opportunity, only to realize she had latched onto a criminal on the run! Moreover, the money he had given her had all gone to waste!

The dowry gift of 1,880,000 yuan that he had promised her had also gone up in smoke after Gao Qi was captured!

Moreover, according to the police’s reply, Gao Qi did not have that much money on hand!

Even if he hadn’t been caught, he wouldn’t have taken out so much dowry gift for her.

After hearing about this, Qin Shuyi felt like her life had collapsed.

Even though she and Gao Zaki had planned to hold a wedding ceremony first and then complete the marriage registration, legally, they were not husband and wife at the moment. But no matter what, Gao Zaki had been arrested on the day of their wedding. Their relatives had witnessed it all…

In the mouths of her relatives, Qin Shuyi had already become a woman who was remarrying!

And not just that, but the wife of a robber!

When she heard this from her second aunt, she almost started a fight with her!

How could she, a woman who hadn’t even gotten married yet, suddenly become someone who was remarrying?!

It was all Gao Qi’s fault!

As she thought about it, Qin Shuyi couldn’t help but blame Su Xuan for the situation.

If it wasn’t for Su Xuan bringing Gao Qi to the police on the day of the wedding, she wouldn’t be facing ridicule from her relatives!

In addition to the money for the hotel on the wedding day, the wedding expenses, cigarettes, alcohol, and other expenses…

Originally, it had all been agreed that Gao Qi would take care of the payments. The Qin family was only facilitating the arrangements. This was why the expenses had escalated…

And naturally, the cost had grown.

But who could have thought that Gao Qi was just a con artist on the run!

Currently, all these debts were pressing down on the Qin family. Her parents had already told her more than once to find another rich guy, but how could Qin Shuyi possibly find another wealthy suitor in such a short time?

In just a few days, her parents were even considering arranging a marriage with an older man just because he could cough up 500,000 yuan as a dowry!

Qin Shuyi had always known that her parents favored her younger brother between the two siblings. However, she hadn’t expected that they would compromise even her own marriage just to patch up their financial hole and provide her brother with a debt-free home.

Could Qin Shuyi just accept this?

She stormed out of the house, only to run into a high school classmate. He had become the general manager of a company now. He sympathized with her predicament after hearing her story and claimed that he had liked her since high school. Unfortunately, she had gotten together with Su Xuan, who he derogatorily referred to as a loser. Now, he wanted to rekindle their past romance given the chance…

Although Qin Shuyi didn’t like him, the fact that he was now wealthy and influential, and reasonably good-looking, made her not refuse his advances. This time, she had agreed to have dinner with him.

Unexpectedly, due to this twist of fate, she ran into Su Xuan.

Seeing Su Xuan passing by with another woman in front of her, Qin Shuyi’s long-held grievances and new resentments surged. She couldn’t hold back and shouted at Su Xuan right then and there.

“It’s only been a few days, and you’ve already found another woman!?”

“You truly make me sick!”

..

Hearing this, Su Xuan halted in his tracks.

“Sick?”

Disgust was written all over Su Xuan’s handsome face. His gaze at Qin Shuyi turned cold and unrelenting. “We broke up a long time ago, and you’ve already found someone else to marry.”

“Let’s not even talk about it. Zhao lady and I didn’t really have anything, and even if we did, it’s none of your business, right?”

“If you have this much time to bother me, you might as well think about how to repay your debts!”

Su Xuan was actually quite surprised. He hadn’t intended to pay any attention to Qin Shuyi today, but he hadn’t expected her to have the audacity to come to him and confront him.

Indeed, after he finished speaking, Qin Shuyi’s complexion changed immediately.

She stared at Su Xuan in disbelief. Under his disgusted gaze, she even took two steps back and yelled at the top of her lungs, “Su Xuan! How dare you talk to me like this?”

“Hmm…”

“Why wouldn’t I dare?”

Su Xuan looked at Qin Shuyi, his tone indifferent.

The impact of his words was too strong. Qin Shuyi stood rooted to the spot, shocked, for quite some time before she finally snapped out of it. She was trembling all over. Screaming, she lunged at Su Xuan, ready to strike him. “Su Xuan! You unfaithful jerk!”

Smack!

The sound of a crisp slap rang out, and everyone who had been watching the scene fell silent.

Su Xuan blinked his eyes.

“Ah! You wretched woman, how dare you hit me!?” Qin Shuyi’s shrieking voice nearly shattered the rooftop.

Amidst the shocked gazes of everyone present, Zhao Ruoxi casually shook her hand. Her other hand still held onto the wrist that Qin Shuyi had swung at her. In response to Qin Shuyi’s words, she simply raised an eyebrow nonchalantly. “You really have an interesting way of speaking.”

“What? You can hit my friend, but I can’t fight back?”

“Leaving aside the fact that you two have already broken up, you have no right to meddle in Mr. Su’s affairs.”

“Just because you rushed in and misunderstood the relationship between Mr. Su and me, it’s an insult to me as well.”

“I didn’t hit you that hard, did I?”

With that, Zhao Ruoxi pushed her hand forward. Qin Shuyi staggered, almost losing her balance. She managed to steady herself by holding onto the table.

She looked up at Su Xuan and Zhao Ruoxi, her words dripping with resentment. “Fine! Just fine! Su Xuan, you wait and see!”

“I’ll be waiting.”

Su Xuan’s voice was calm. “Come to think of it, some of the funds related to Gao Zhi seem to have disappeared. If Miss Qin knows anything about it, you might consider accompanying me to the police station to give a statement.”

At those words, Qin Shuyi’s face turned pale.
