President's Substitute Wife

Ming looked at me. His eyes were cold.

He was rejecting me.

For Lester, I couldn’t care so much. I took him by the arm and said, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I won’t go to the bar again. Please forgive me.”

Ming looked at me and didn’t speak.

I didn’t know what he meant.

I stared at him quietly and didn’t know what to do.

What else did he want me to do?

Was he going to have sex with me?

OK, I could do anything for Lester.

I was fully prepared.

After a while, Ming put the ring in his pocket. He stood up and said to me, “let’s go.”

“OK!”

I thought he forgave me, so I followed him immediately.

I followed him out.

We sat in his car together.

Now there was a smell of wine in his car that hadn’t gone away.

I was a little embarrassed.

But I didn’t speak.

Ming started the car and drove it out of the community. I didn’t speak.

After a while, I noticed that we didn't seem to be driving to the Civil Affairs Bureau. I suddenly got nervous again and looked at Ming. “Where are we going?”

“Pick up Lester.”

He looked ahead and didn’t look at me as he spoke.

“Pick up Lester?”

What did he mean?

But as soon as I got off, Ming got out of the driver’s seat and said, “give him to me.”

Then he took Lester from my arms.
