Chapter 129 Give Me Some More Time

Xu Zhengnan didn't reply to me, and I tactfully stopped making further requests.

He agreed to help me take care of my parents, which is already very good. It is very likely that he did so because my parents were very good to him, not because of me.

After putting away my phone, I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep at all.

I scrolled through my phone numbly to kill time, until I fell into a deep sleep in the second half of the night.

I thought Shen Yixiao would come over early the next morning to avoid being discovered by the program crew. But when I woke up, Director Li and the others were already waiting for me outside the tent. After I opened the tent, they came to ask me where Shen Yixiao had gone.

"Something happened at the company, and he rushed back last night to deal with it. Maybe he hasn't finished it yet." I was a little caught off guard and made up an excuse to get away with it.

Director Li was a little anxious. "Then contact him and see if he can come over now. I called him but he didn't answer."

Under everyone's urging, I had no choice but to call Shen Yixiao.

The moment the call was connected, I clearly felt that everyone was relieved, and Shen Yixiao's voice rang out, "Wife, I haven't dealt with it yet. I'm sorry that I didn't rush back last night. Don't worry, Lu——"

"Director Li and the others are waiting for you. They called you but you didn't answer, so they asked me to call you." I interrupted him.

After Shen Yixiao heard that Director Li was next to him, he stopped talking and asked me to give the phone to Director Li.

Watching Director Li go to the side to answer the phone, my mood remained unchanged. It would be better if Shen Yixiao couldn't come. I was too lazy to act with him on the show, and he would threaten me if I didn't act.

After a while, Director Li came to tell me that Shen Yixiao couldn't make it today, so I had to continue the show alone. He would explain in the show the reason for Shen Yixiao's absence today, that the company had a very important meeting at the last minute and couldn't postpone it.

There must be a very important person who was absent and could not refuse.

Lu Xiaoyun's persistence was effective after all, and Shen Yixiao had never let her go.

"Okay." I nodded and cooperated with the program team's arrangements.

Without Shen Yixiao, I was all alone and could only act as an NPC in many game sessions. In the live broadcast comments, there were a lot of people expressing their sympathy for my loneliness. Everyone only saw my loneliness on the surface, but not the secret joy in my heart.

If possible, let me be alone like this until I die, and never see that scumbag Shen Yixiao again.

It’s a pity that such a beautiful time only lasts for one day.

When I returned to the villa of the production team, Shen Yixiao had already returned. He also thoughtfully brought a gift for everyone as an apology for his absence today, and then gave me ninety-nine roses and a diamond necklace. He apologized to me in front of everyone with deep affection, "Wife, I'm sorry. I can't shirk the company's business. I have to leave you here alone. Don't be unhappy."

Everyone was already used to Shen Yixiao's doting on me, and facing this scene, they all clapped and praised him.

I barely held the large bouquet of flowers to cover my face, while Shen Yixiao personally put the necklace on me.

It was almost the end of the day, the shooting was over, and Shen Yixiao and I returned to our room.

As soon as he entered the room, he grabbed my hand tightly and said, "Wife, I deserve to die!"

He grabbed my hand and slapped it in his face.

I didn't resist him like I did in my previous life. Instead, I followed his wishes and slapped him hard on the face.

"Chen Yixiao, you are afraid that I will expose you, but for Lu Xiaoyun, you are willing to risk delaying the filming to meet her. Since you love her so much, why not divorce me and give her a legitimate status." My voice was very calm.

In my previous life, I struggled for a long time and was in great pain. I couldn't give up the relationship that I had with Shen Yixiao for many years. Due to my inability to have children, I finally tolerated Lu Xiaoyun entering my house.

I was so stupid. I had already fallen into a fire pit, but I still jumped into a bigger fire pit.

"I've said before, you're the only one I love, wife. I went to find Lu Xiaoyun just because I didn't want anyone to get killed. She's a little extreme now. What if she goes out and says something nonsense, causing our marriage to change? What should we do?" Shen Yixiao looked like he had good intentions.

There is still genuine love and tenderness in his eyes, and this is the most terrifying thing.

A heart can love two people at the same time and never let go of anyone.

I would rather he say he doesn't love me anymore and give me a large sum of money, then I will leave him immediately.

I took a deep breath, feeling restless.

Shen Yixiao observed my reaction, with a subtle emotion on his face, “Wife, you won’t be impulsive, right?”

The impulse he mentioned was because he was afraid that I would expose his infidelity without regard for the safety of my family.

In fact, he was not worried at all that Lu Xiaoyun would go to extremes and tell everything, because that woman was completely controlled by him. The only person he was worried about from beginning to end was me.

"I won't be impulsive, but I'll only give you one chance. If you can't break up with her, we'll get divorced." I replied with a cold face.

Whenever Shen Yixiao heard the word "divorce", he couldn't control his emotions.

His face darkened, and he said fiercely, "We can't get divorced. Don't ever mention this word!"

"Then do you want me and Lu Xiaoyun to share one man? Sorry, I can't do it!" I said in a firm attitude.

If it weren't for my parents, my participation in the show would be a good opportunity to expose him.

At that time, he would have to divorce even if he didn't want to, because the pressure from public opinion would be too great, and he would only lose more if he dragged on.

"Don't say such harsh words. I said I would break up with her, but it just takes time." Shen Yixiao became impatient. He didn't want to talk about Lu Xiaoyun anymore. "Rest today and go back tomorrow."

The program will be filmed for two days with a three-day break. It will take at least a month to finish broadcasting.

Tomorrow morning, we will go home and take a rest.

Shen Yixiao suppressed his emotions and avoided arguing with me here, otherwise it would not be good if others heard it.

I said nothing and went to sleep. Shen Yixiao's phone was on all night, probably because he was replying to Lu Xiaoyun's message.

He thought I wasn't asleep, but actually I knew everything.

The last time he stayed up all night replying to someone's message was probably when we first got together. We were chatting so enthusiastically that we didn't want to end the topic, and we only took a short nap in the early morning when we couldn't hold it any longer.

——

The next morning, the program crew's car took us back to our respective homes.

As soon as I got home, Shen Yixiao told me that he needed to go out.

I called him, "Are you going to look for Lu Xiaoyun again?"

"Wife, give me some time. How can I deal with this cleanly if I don't meet her?" Shen Yixiao said confidently, as if he did nothing wrong.
