Chapter 46 The Desire to Perform

Maybe it was because I had drunk a little bit of wine just now, but as I watched Lu Xiaoyun disappear, my fingers were shaking with excitement.

I couldn't control my tears and wanted to flow down, but I couldn't lose my composure and be discovered by Shen Yixiao.

I turned around and hurried to the bathroom, wanting to wash my face with cold water to calm myself down. My thoughts were in a mess for a moment and I bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry." I opened my mouth and found myself choking.

Then I lowered my head and prepared to walk away, not wanting anyone to see me crying.

An arm blocked my way. There were light silver stripes on the white sleeves, which had a great texture and reminded me of snow plums in winter.

I turned my head in surprise, and my eyes looked up, meeting Xu Zhengnan's.

His eyes were slightly long and narrow, with the tails slightly upturned. They were very standard phoenix eyes, and his eyelashes were as thick as crow feathers. They were very handsome, but very cold.

"Why are you crying?" He frowned, "This is the second time."

When he returned to China and saw me for the first time, I also cried in this hotel.

I absolutely refused to reveal my current predicament in front of Xu Zhengnan. It was really embarrassing.

I wiped my tears and forced a smile, "I haven't seen my classmates for many years. I am a little moved to be together again..."

"Your lying skills are still so poor." Xu Zhengnan interrupted me, very coldly.

It was just like how I used to go to his house and stay with him under the pretext of doing homework or discussing topics, but the excuse was so poor.

I didn't know what reason I could find to explain my crying this time. When my mind was in a mess, a hand grabbed my wrist and then held my palm. "Wife, why are you here? I've been looking for you for a long time."

Xu Zhengnan looked down at Shen Yixiao and my hands, but his expression did not change.

When Shen Yixiao found out that I was crying, he panicked for a moment. He wiped the tears from my face and said distressedly, "Why are you crying? Who bullied you?"

He did not greet Xu Zhengnan and deliberately ignored the other party's existence.

Xu Zhengnan was the same. He even felt disgusted to look at us for one more second and walked around us.

When I decided to drop out of school, he went to find Shen Yixiao, and the two had a conflict. I lost my mind at the time and stood in front of Shen Yixiao, firmly defending my so-called love.

There was deep disappointment in his eyes. After looking at me, he turned around and left resolutely.

After Xu Zhengnan left, the pain on Shen Yixiao's face faded a little, replaced by patience and anger, "Are you crying because you met him again after a long time? It seems that some people can still feel like old friends at first sight even if they haven't contacted each other for a long time, and their original intentions remain unchanged."

I shook off his hand that was wiping my tears. How could he have the nerve to say that to me?

"I didn't!" I stared at him with red eyes, "Have you forgotten that I have always had depression problems? Is this the first time you saw me crying for no reason?"

Shen Yixiao's face was gloomy. "You got sick at such a coincidence. You just happened to meet Xu Zhengnan and became upset. It's hard for me not to suspect that you got upset because you saw him and remembered the past."

The thief cries "stop thief" and turns the tables. This is really an apt description of him.

If you have done something wrong, you must slander others and accuse them of doing the same thing in order to gain a little psychological balance.

"Why don't we ask the hotel staff to check the surveillance footage?" I said and Shen Yixiao shut up.

How dare he adjust the surveillance? By then, my innocence would be proven, and the fact that he and Lu Xiaoyun had a tryst in the box would no longer be concealed.

"I just love you too much, and I don't want you to have someone else in your heart." He held my hand and explained in a low voice.

I broke free from his grasp and looked at him disappointedly, "I don't want to argue with you about this today, let's go back to the box first."

He didn't refuse and followed me back to the box.

The box was very lively at this time. Because of Xu Zhengnan's arrival, the atmosphere reached a climax again. Many people surrounded him and discussed some financial matters. In fact, no one understood them, they just deliberately found topics to talk about. Some people also expected to get some benefits from him and were ready to establish a good relationship with him first.

Only Meng Zicheng and Liang Feng were sitting not far away, with undisguised disdain in their eyes.

Seeing Shen Yixiao and I coming back, everyone's eyes immediately gathered around us, especially Su Ying, who was like a monkey jumping up and down, trying to attract everyone's attention, and then turned to me, "Xu Zhengnan, your childhood sweetheart is here, but unfortunately she is Shen Yixiao's wife now!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the place fell into silence, and everyone looked at us, the topic of conversation, with eyes that were curious but not afraid to gossip.

"Su Ying!" I shouted, my eyes were extremely cold, "Leave this place right now and go get your foul mouth fixed first!"

She was rarely frightened. After all, I had never treated her like this before, especially in front of so many people. So she bit the bullet and tried to make excuses for herself, "We are all old classmates. It's just a joke. How can you not take a joke?"

No one else said anything, and no one dared to agree.

Shen Yixiao put his arm around my shoulders and spoke, his tone unusually gentle and doting, "It's just a joke, don't take it to heart, it's enough that we are happy now, wife, don't you agree?"

He asked me with his head down, his eyes as sweet as honey, as if there were countless cameras facing us, about to perform an exaggerated love plot.

This is his favorite thing to do, to let people outside see his and my happiness, and see his tender love for me.

Now a group of old classmates are present, including Xu Zhengnan, and his desire to perform has reached its peak.

Xu Zhengnan sat in the crowd, looking at me with a stern gaze. His face seemed covered with a layer of light frost, which made people feel nervous and uneasy.

I didn't answer Shen Yixiao, he had already kissed me first.

My body subconsciously wanted to resist the kiss, and Shen Yixiao felt it. His arms restrained my little movements. From the perspective of others, I obediently accepted his kiss.

Even though it was just a light touch, I reacted strongly. It felt like a worm was drilling in my throat and I wanted to vomit but couldn't.

"Wow!" Meng Zicheng screamed, then clapped his hands vigorously, "Brother Xiao, sister-in-law, give me another kiss!"

The others then spoke up and started to urge us to kiss again.

Fortunately, Shen Yixiao had already sensed that something was wrong with me. He was afraid that if he continued to force me, it would make things awkward, so he smiled and found an excuse to refuse, "It's pointless to kiss you. We'll have plenty of time to kiss when we get back."

Meng Zicheng laughed ambiguously, "I'm afraid it's not just a kiss? Hahaha!"

Shen Yixiao looked at Xu Zhengnan with a smile on his face but no warmth in his eyes.
