President's Substitute Wife

When I heard Ming say that, I felt very creepy.

I opened my eyes wide and said, “you...”

“I didn’t kill her.” Ming smiled bitterly. “She died before I graduated. She died before I killed her...”

I was relieved.

Ming’s face moved. I was finally sure he was looking at me. He looked at me and said, “then I went back to Jessop Family. At first I didn’t want Jessop Family destroyed. I tried to integrate with them, so I redoubled my efforts. I pretended not to hear their mockery of me. I wanted to be nice to them.

But I found that their view of me would never change. No matter what I did, I was just a wild dog begging for food in their eyes.”

Ming’s words touched me deeply.

He was talking about himself but I thought he was talking about me.

When I lived in Carter Family, I felt their attitude towards me, but I still tried to integrate with them.

I was just deluding myself.

I looked at Ming and nodded, “I understand you.”

“I know.” Ming raised his hand and wiped his face and woke himself up. He continued, “so I want to keep you with me. I know we have the same experience. I want to be nice to you. I love you as I love the one I used to be.”

He loved me as he loved the one he used to be.

I looked at Ming and seemed to suddenly understand a lot.

I shook my head. “You don’t have to worry about me. I’ll be fine. I have my son Lester. I have a good friend Daisy and a good partner Linda. I have a man who loves me. I’m fine. You don’t have to worry about me.”

I was really rich.

I was not the timid June anymore.
