Chapter 100: One Night Out

After the matter was settled, I breathed a sigh of relief and my stolen bag was returned to me.

A policeman reminded me, "Miss, was it your friend who saved you just now? He must be injured and there is blood on his arm. Please accompany him to the hospital for insurance."

Only then did I come to my senses and realized that the person who pulled me away was Xu Zhengnan, but things were so chaotic that I didn't have the chance to thank him.

The police left and Xu Zhengnan walked towards the elevator without saying a word.

"Xu Zhengnan!" I quickly chased after him.

"Something?" He stopped and asked coldly.

"Is your hand injured? Let me take a look." I looked at his arm worriedly. He was wearing a black high-necked sports shirt, so the blood on it was hardly noticeable.

He dodged my move to check for injuries and took a step back, "No, you don't have to worry about me."

I was a little anxious, "You were injured because you saved me, how can I ignore you?"

"Even if it wasn't you, I would have saved you." He deliberately kept his distance from me, "I advise you to stay away from me. If your husband sees you, I'm afraid it will affect your relationship."

Isn't this just to make me angry?

Before I could say anything else, Xu Zhengnan had already entered the elevator.

When I tried to go in, the elevator door closed.

I had no choice but to take the elevator next to me. I knew which room Xu Zhengnan and Aunt Yang lived in, but I didn't have the courage to knock on the door again.

After returning to the room, it was very quiet. Shen Yixiao hadn't come back yet. I looked at the time and it was almost twelve o'clock.

Didn’t he see the message I sent when I was in danger?

I called the brand manager and asked, "Hello, is your event over?"

"Mrs. Shen, the event ended a long time ago. It's been more than an hour. Hasn't Mr. Shen gone back yet?" the other party asked back.

"Okay, I understand, thank you." I didn't answer her question and hung up the phone.

The brand's event ended more than an hour ago, so where did Shen Yixiao go? How come he didn't see my message?

My eyes fell on the small silver suitcase. He hadn't come back yet, so I hadn't seen the suitcase.

Then I called Shen Yixiao.

“The number you dialed is currently unanswered, please call again later…” After making three calls in a row, Shen Yixiao did not answer.

My intuition tells me that Shen Yixiao will not come back tonight, nor will he return my call.

If it were in the past, I would have been extremely upset, but now I just want to take a nap first so as not to delay my sleep.

I lay down and slept until morning. The filming was over, so according to the schedule, Shen Yixiao and I had to go home today.

I can't find him, so I can only wait for him.

Near noon, the door opened, and when I walked over, I saw Shen Yixiao standing at the door, and Lu Xiaoyun, whose eyes were swollen like walnuts, as if she had cried so much.

I remembered what Liang Feng told me, and the balance in Shen Yixiao's heart was slowly tilting towards Lu Xiaoyun.

Even when she tried every means to provoke me to divorce behind my back, Shen Yixiao chose to tolerate it, instead of breaking up with me as he said if she touched the bottom line.

“Wife…” Shen Yixiao looked at me, his face embarrassed, with helplessness flashing in his eyes.

Lu Xiaoyun sobbed, "Madam..."

This scene is like a master in ancient times who fell in love with a maid, but the two were afraid that his original wife would be angry, so they decided to go together to find the original wife and ask for her help.

It's interesting that I still have the mind to fantasize about these things.

My eyes swept across Lu Xiaoyun's lower abdomen. It was almost the same scene in my previous life, but the location was different. I was at home at that time.

Shen Yixiao came back with the pregnant Lu Xiaoyun, with exactly the same expression.

"Didn't Secretary Lu go home? Why are you here again? And you, where did you go last night?" I looked at the two of them, my tone surprisingly calm.

Before Shen Yixiao could speak, Lu Xiaoyun started crying first, "Madam, I'm sorry, it's all because of me that Mr. Shen didn't come back last night. I encountered something at home and didn't know who to ask for help, so I called Mr. Shen and he came over to help me solve the problem..."

She was crying so hard that she would look at me and then at Shen Yixiao.

Shen Yixiao frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with her quick answer.

"Wife, something unexpected happened last night, so I didn't have time to come back. Something happened at Secretary Lu's home, so I went over since I was nearby." He then explained.

Lu Xiaoyun kept sobbing, and those who didn't know her would have thought she had just returned from a funeral.

There was a problem at her home, so Shen Yixiao rushed over to solve it in such a hurry that he didn't even answer my call or read my message.

If that psychopath had attacked me earlier last night and used a knife to steal my bag without paying attention to my warning to call the police, I would be either dead or seriously injured now.

I asked, “Did you see the message I sent you?”

Shen Yixiao was stunned for a moment, then he took out his phone and opened WeChat to check. After reading my message, he was horrified, "This... Wife, are you okay? Are you injured?"

Lu Xiaoyun also wiped away her tears and looked at me with concern.

“Chen Yixiao, if my luck was a little worse, what you would see today would be my corpse.” I didn’t answer him directly, but said very solemnly.

Shen Yixiao's face flashed with tension and annoyance. He reached out to grab my arm and said, "Wife, I'm sorry. If I had known that you would be in danger last night, I would not have gone anywhere!"

When Lu Xiaoyun heard this, a flash of resentment flashed across her eyes.

“It’s okay,” I shook off Shen Yixiao’s hand, and my emotions were stable, “It’s just right, since Secretary Lu is back, just take away the things you left behind.”

Shen Yixiao didn’t understand what I meant, so I turned around and walked in, and the two of them followed in.

The small silver suitcase on the table was very eye-catching.

The moment they saw the small suitcase, Shen Yixiao and Lu Xiaoyun's faces changed, especially Shen Yixiao.

His emotions instantly tensed up. He turned his head to look at Lu Xiaoyun, his eyes full of questioning and reproach, as if he was blaming her for leaving such a dangerous thing behind. !

Lu Xiaoyun was also nervous, but her nervousness seemed fake. She walked over and took the small suitcase. "I accidentally left it in the room, ma'am, how did you know?"

"The housekeeping staff found it. They knew we were together, so they sent it to me and asked me to pass it to you." I replied indifferently.

"Ma'am, have you opened it and looked?" She touched the combination lock and asked deliberately.

Shen Yixiao's face turned pale, and he suddenly became annoyed, "Secretary Lu! What's so good about a broken box? I wasted an entire night because of your matter, and my wife had to pick up the things you left behind. What do you think of yourself?"

Lu Xiaoyun didn't expect to be scolded by Shen Yixiao, and was stunned. Then tears welled up in her eyes, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault that I caused you trouble. I'm leaving now."

After saying that, she rushed out the door carrying her small suitcase.
