The first sword after coming ashore, first slay the one in my heart.
After Shen Yixiao became a new star in business, the first person he backstabbed was me, who had accompanied him through t...
Chapter 157 I am an outsider
"Wife, why are you still in the hospital so late?" Shen Yixiao asked first, his tone suspicious, "Lu Xiaoyun said you left a long time ago."
I didn't answer his question, but pointed at the insulated box and asked, "Is this for her?"
Shen Yixiao's expression changed slightly, a little unnatural, "Well, she said she was not used to the food in the hospital and wanted to eat the cordyceps stewed duck at home, so I asked my aunt to make one and send it over."
So thoughtful, he was afraid that Lu Xiaoyun would be hungry in the hospital.
In fact, if she didn't want to eat the hospital meals, she could just ask the nurse to go out and buy them. There was no need for Shen Yixiao to personally deliver the meals.
Maybe she just enjoys the feeling of being loved and indulged, and it also allows me, the original wife who has long fallen out of favor, to see that she, Lu Xiaoyun, is the treasure in Shen Yixiao's palm.
Thinking of Lu Xiaoyun's boasting just now, I took the incubator and said, "I'll go with you."
"Why don't you go back and rest first?" Shen Yixiao seemed to not want me to go with her to see Lu Xiaoyun.
"It will be boring to go back. I just stayed in the hospital for a long time, but I don't know what to do when I go back." I didn't agree and answered somewhat firmly.
Shen Yixiao had no choice but to go to Lu Xiaoyun's room with me.
As I reached the door of the room, I stopped.
Lu Xiaoyun's sobbing voice came from inside, "I know I'm not likable, and what I fear most is that Mr. Shen and the others will quarrel because of me. If I wasn't pregnant and the hormones weren't acting up, I would definitely leave here and never appear in front of them to be an eyesore again!"
Then came Su Ying's voice, "Don't blame yourself too much. I know Li Yue. She is very jealous and sometimes deliberately targets you. Just ignore her. The baby in your belly is the most important thing now."
"Yes, the child is important." Meng Zicheng's voice followed.
It turns out that someone has come to visit, no wonder Shen Yixiao didn't want me to come with him. Hearing these words will easily make me angry. If there is a quarrel, he will have a headache.
Shen Yixiao glanced at me with a worried look in his eyes. Just as he was about to explain, I had already opened the door and walked in.
When Meng Zicheng and Su Ying saw me, they looked at each other and felt a little guilty.
Lu Xiaoyun quickly wiped away her tears and forced an ugly smile, "Madam, why are you back again? Didn't you leave a long time ago?"
I put the thermos box on the table and said with a fake smile, "Chen Yixiao said you wanted to drink the duck stewed with cordyceps at home, so he brought it to you. I just happened to run into him, so I came over together."
Lu Xiaoyun's gaze shifted to Shen Yixiao, revealing a hint of shyness, "Thank you, Mr. Shen."
"What are you thanking me for? You're pregnant now, and the child you're carrying is his. It's normal for him to care about you." Su Ying replied disapprovingly.
Shen Yixiao scolded her angrily, “Shut up!”
Su Ying shut up reluctantly and rolled her eyes at me, as if I owed her a million dollars.
Lu Xiaoyun said very obediently, "Sister Su Ying, I know you feel sorry for me, but I know myself very well. I will leave after I give birth to the child. I will not compete with Madam for President Shen. I will not covet things that do not belong to me. The child is the price I pay, and it can also make up for some of my guilt towards them."
That's not what she said when I was alone with her just now.
Her words moved Shen Yixiao a little. He had been without parents since he was a child and had been laughed at and bullied many times. Later, he slowly became a gangster. He could not only protect himself, but also changed from a victim to a perpetrator.
In his heart, he always missed his parents and envied children who had both parents.
After Lu Xiaoyun gave birth, she was forced to separate from her child. For a woman who had just become a mother, this was definitely a great hurt, but she accepted it willingly.
"You can come to see the child anytime and let him recognize you as his godmother." He couldn't help but say.
Lu Xiaoyun's eyes lit up and she was very touched. "Really? But..."
She looked at me cautiously again, pretending to be scared and worried, "Forget it, the child only needs one mother, and I don't want to cause psychological pressure on the lady."
"She's not that petty." Shen Yixiao answered the question for me without even thinking about it.
I interrupted them and said, "Lu Xiaoyun, when I accompanied you for the examination just now, you didn't seem to say this. Didn't you say that you wanted to replace me?"
"Madam!" Lu Xiaoyun was horrified, tears fell from her eyes, and her lips trembled slightly. "How could I say those words? I know how deep Mr. Shen's feelings for you are, how could I have such a daydream? I'm already so miserable now, there's no need for you to slander me!"
He denied what he said in the blink of an eye.
Shen Yixiao obviously didn't believe that Lu Xiaoyun would say such arrogant words. He frowned and stopped me from talking nonsense. "Wife, Lu Xiaoyun doesn't have the courage, and I said that I will not divorce you, let alone give her a name."
Lu Xiaoyun nodded aggrievedly, "Yes, in Mr. Shen's heart, there is only my wife."
Meng Zicheng couldn't stand it any longer, and he said to me, "Sister-in-law, although you are Brother Xiao's wife, Lu Xiaoyun is willing to give birth to the child to you, which is equivalent to giving up her own child. The price she paid is quite high. You don't need to be so fussy. If it weren't for her, you wouldn't even have a child, and your relationship would still be unstable."
It sounds like I should thank Lu Xiaoyun.
Lu Xiaoyun whispered, "Brother Zicheng, please stop talking. I'm afraid my wife will be angry."
Meng Zicheng sighed, "Xiaoyun, you actually have a very simple personality. Although you did something wrong, as long as you correct your mistakes and pay the price, there is no need to always feel that you are inferior to others."
Birds of a feather flock together. The fact that Meng Zicheng can resonate so deeply with Lu Xiaoyun shows that they are of the same kind.
Lu Xiaoyun looked at him gratefully.
In this ward, I am the only outsider, and they are all in the same camp.
On the way back to the ward with Shen Yixiao, I had quietly turned on the micro camera on my bag, and I really captured these shameless scenes.
I was too lazy to stay any longer, so I turned around and left.
Shen Yixiao thought I was angry, so he chased me out immediately. He grabbed my wrist and lowered his voice, "Wife, don't get angry with her about these things, okay?"
"I'm not angry, Shen Yixiao," I turned around and looked at him, "Today when I accompanied Lu Xiaoyun for a prenatal checkup, she told me in person that she would not leave even after giving birth. Her goal is to replace me. She thinks that in your heart, she has already surpassed me, do you know?"
These words made Shen Yixiao laugh. He was angry that I kept slandering Lu Xiaoyun. "That's enough. Just because she's pregnant, you're throwing all the dirty water on her. I wanted her to stay and be a nanny at home and take care of the child, but she refused because she was afraid that you would be unhappy. If she really wanted to replace you, why did she reject my proposal?"
