Chapter 156 Are you considering remarriage?

Xu Zhengnan’s words made my stomach growl.

I tactfully offered to treat them to a meal, but Li Letong replied, "No thanks, Sister Li, I don't really feel like eating. I want dessert."

"Shall I go buy some?" I asked.

Li Letong nodded, "Okay, I want mango mousse and durian mille-feuille, and a small cream cake."

I asked Xu Zhengnan, "What about you?"

"Just share one portion with her." Xu Zhengnan answered casually.

I was shocked. Is this a blessing in disguise? Has their relationship progressed to the point where they can eat the same dessert?

Well, then my bad idea is still useful.

"Okay." I replied, then concealed the disappointment in my heart and turned away.

I wasn't jealous of Li Letong, but I remembered that I used to give my favorite dessert to Xu Zhengnan, and he always said, "I don't want to eat it."

The blow is still vivid in my memory.

I found a bakery near the hospital and ordered the desserts that Li Letong specifically ordered. When paying the bill, I discovered that her taste was surprisingly similar to mine.

Mango mousse, durian mille-feuille, and cream cakes were all flavors that I loved in the past.

When I carried the desserts back to Xu Zhengnan's ward, I found that Li Letong was missing.

"Where is she?" I asked puzzledly.

"I have a headache and feel dizzy. I'm going back to her ward and sleeping first." Xu Zhengnan had already gotten out of bed. He was wearing a hospital gown. The blue and white striped gown made him look more like a model than a patient.

The sportswear he wore for playing basketball yesterday was still thrown on the sofa beside him, and it was obvious that he had rushed to the hospital.

"What about these desserts?" I wondered.

It only took half an hour to go out and buy some dessert, but Li Letong had such a headache that she had to go to bed?

Xu Zhengnan pointed at himself and said, "I'll eat."

"Can you finish it?" I opened the dessert and handed it to him, muttering, "I remember you used to hate dessert and told me that eating too much sweet things would make you stupid."

He took in all my mumblings. He took a small spoon, scooped a spoonful of mousse into his mouth, and replied calmly, "People's tastes can change."

That’s true. I sat down aside and watched Xu Zhengnan eat dessert.

After he took two bites, he handed me the durian lasagna and said, "I probably can't finish it. I was planning to split it with Li Letong, but she's gone to sleep now. You eat it for her, don't waste it."

I looked at the Thousand Layer Rice he handed over, and then at his calm expression. It seemed that he was really worried about wasting food, and hoped that I would help him solve it.

I like desserts anyway, especially the flavors I like, so I took the mille-feuille without thinking too much. While eating, I said, "You've changed a lot. Are you used to high-calorie foods abroad, so you like desserts?"

Xu Zhengnan stopped eating and said, "Hmm."

So that's how it is. I nodded thoughtfully and unknowingly increased my eating speed. Ever since I was sure I couldn't get pregnant, my appetite had become very poor.

Apart from eating the food my mother cooks, which can improve my appetite, only these desserts can make me feel a little more relaxed.

I was so absorbed in eating that I didn't notice that Xu Zhengnan had stopped eating a long time ago. He just watched me eat quietly. Only after he finished the little cream cake did I feel that there was a different emotion in his gaze.

I looked over subconsciously, and a hint of burning emotion emerged in those dark and deep eyes.

I panicked for a moment and quickly touched the corner of my mouth, "What's wrong? Is there any cream?"

"No." He retracted his gaze, returning to his usual cold and aloof demeanor, and then calmly finished the mousse in his hand.

In comparison, my speed just now was a bit like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.

Actually, I’ve eaten pretty well over the years, but the dessert just now was really to my taste.

After finishing the mousse, he turned on his computer and sent me a file, "Look, this is the confession and evidence I asked someone to collect about Shen Yixiao's campus bullying."

Last time he gave me a list, but if I need it, he can give me the evidence as well.

After I received the file, I opened it and saw that they were all victims who were bullied by Shen Yixiao at school. Some of them even kept video recordings of themselves being bullied.

I clicked on a few to check, and the more I looked, the more frightened I became. When I was in school, I knew that Shen Yixiao was a gangster, but he had never revealed these bad things to me.

Later, when he entered society, the grudges and hatreds between him and the people in society were all gang disputes.

"How did you get this evidence so quickly?" I asked excitedly.

"I've started preparing it a long time ago, but I'm just giving it to you now." Xu Zhengnan answered very calmly, as if it was just a piece of cake.

After I saved the file, I said to Xu Zhengnan solemnly, "Xu Zhengnan, you are so kind to me. You didn't care about the stupid things I did before and were willing to help me. I will always remember your help to me."

It sounds very polite, but every word comes from the heart.

At the beginning, I made a solemn promise and was willing to turn against him for Chen Yixiao. Now my retribution has come. He did not stand by and watch, but has been helping me out of the quagmire. I will remember this kindness in my heart.

Xu Zhengnan did not respond to my gratitude, but stared at me and asked, "What are your plans after the divorce? Are you going to remarry?"

remarry? This is totally out of my consideration.

The hurt I suffered from Shen Yixiao was enough to make me completely disappointed in marriage, and I am infertile, which most men would not be able to accept. I don't want to humiliate myself again.

The right choice for me is to use the money I save to travel around the world or settle down in a distant foreign country.

I don't expect my father to accept me. I have already let it go. He is so disappointed and hates me. The best way to repay him is for me to stop bothering him.

"No."

I shook my head. "I plan to be single for the rest of my life. What's good about men? They are all black-hearted."

Xu Zhengnan frowned, "Don't generalize."

After I realized what was happening, I quickly explained, "The man I'm talking about doesn't include you!"

His brows furrowed even tighter, "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that you don't belong to men!" My mouth seemed to be broken and I spoke nonsense.

I tend to get nervous in front of him, and when I get nervous I tend to say the wrong things. After realizing that what I said was outrageous, I simply shut up and looked at Xu Zhengnan quietly.

He pinched his brows and said, "That's a good explanation. Don't explain it next time."

I smiled awkwardly, glanced at the time on my phone, and quickly found an excuse to leave the ward.

As soon as I went down from the inpatient department, I ran into Shen Yixiao on the first floor. He was holding an insulated box in his hand. It was the insulated box that I had bought specially for the charity lunch and brought to him at the company.
