Chapter 51 A quarrel breaks out

When I got home, Shen Yixiao and I had a heated argument.

He believed that I still had feelings for Xu Zhengnan, and in front of so many people, I repeatedly showed disdain to him and refused to give him face.

"Li Yue, don't you realize how much I've given you? If it wasn't for giving you a better life, I wouldn't have worked so hard. But you're still obsessed with your first love in your heart. Is this how you repay me?" Shen Yixiao blushed and was very emotional.

If I were his enemy, he would have probably taken action already.

I was also filled with rage, but reason forced me to calm down. The lessons of my last life were still fresh in my mind, and I couldn't really fall out with Shen Yixiao right away.

"Xu Zhengnan is not my first love, I just had a crush on him, and we have never been together. Shen Yixiao, if I didn't love you, I wouldn't drop out of school for you, I wouldn't cut off ties with my family for you, and I wouldn't be like this now!" I confronted him with red eyes and didn't say anything too harsh.

Shen Yixiao's chest rose and fell violently, and he gritted his teeth, "What are you like now? You think it's not good for you to follow me like this, right?"

I shut up and stopped talking, wishing I could plug my ears to avoid being broken by those irritating words.

Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking glass. I opened my eyes and saw that Shen Yixiao had smashed a potted plant by the window into pieces. Then the other furniture followed. Anything he could move was broken.

I listened to the sounds of things breaking coming from all around, and felt infinite sadness in my heart.

These were the items that we had carefully selected and arranged together, and he smashed them all without a trace of restraint or hesitation.

"Chen Yixiao, let's get a divorce. It's not because of the child, but because I think we are not suitable." I proposed a divorce again.

If he could agree readily, it would save me a lot of trouble.

When he heard that I wanted a divorce, Shen Yixiao's face became particularly terrifying, like a vengeful evil ghost released from hell. There was no warmth at all, and his handsome features were shrouded in a gloomy aura.

My heart skipped a beat and I regretted that I couldn't help but speak up a little too early.

"As soon as Xu Zhengnan came back, you wanted to divorce me. You also said that you have no feelings for him anymore? Li Yue, we have come this far together, and there is no turning back. I have paid so much, there is no way I will give up." His voice was no longer fierce, but it revealed a threatening tone.

"It's not because of him!" I explained.

Shen Yixiao looked at me gloomily, "No matter if it's because of him or not, we can't get divorced. Give up on that idea."

After saying that, he left the mess on the ground and left home.

I didn't know whether he was going to seek comfort from Lu Xiaoyun. I was exhausted both physically and mentally at the moment. After asking the servants to clean up the living room, I went upstairs to rest.

I thought Shen Yixiao would not come home overnight. The next morning, the servant told me that he came back drunk in the early morning and slept in the guest bedroom.

I didn't say anything and went downstairs.

On the coffee table in the living room, there was a large bouquet of bright red roses, and next to it was an unpacked pencil. The pen barrel was made of gold and inlaid with diamonds. It was a Cartier limited edition pencil that I had previously browsed on the website.

I've always wanted to buy it for my collection, but never did.

There was a note under the gift box. When I took it out, I saw a line of words on it: I'm sorry, Xiaoyue, I still can't overcome my inner inferiority, and I'm afraid you will leave me.

Seeing this note and the gift I once wanted, I felt sad and painful. I would rather Shen Yixiao really didn't love me anymore, so he looked for Lu Xiaoyun, than for him to love me and hurt me at the same time.

While I was in a daze, Shen Yixiao came down from the stairs.

They looked at each other in silence.

"Do you like it? That pencil." He broke the silence and asked me carefully.

"Yeah, I like it." I nodded.

"Then don't be angry with me. I was wrong about what happened yesterday. I was too worried. No matter what, I have never thought of divorcing you, wife. Without you, everything I have is meaningless." Shen Yixiao came to my side and leaned closer to me, with a pitiful look in his eyes.

I avoided his approach, put the pencil into my bag, and pretended to be angry and pushed him away, "It depends on how you perform."

This way I can have a reason to ignore him and reject his approach.

Shen Yixiao sighed, “Okay, I’ll behave well.”

The servant prepared breakfast, and after we finished eating, we went to the company together.

——

“Wow, Mr. Shen and his wife are so sweet. They even hold hands during work!”

“I’m jealous.”

“Mr. Shen, Madam, good morning!”

Today, Shen Yixiao took me to take the employee elevator. There were already quite a few people waiting for the elevator, including Lu Xiaoyun.

Her vacation ended today and she returned to work.

Listening to other people's voices, her face stiffened slightly, her eyes fixed on Shen Yixiao, and when I looked over, she would quickly dodge away.

After entering the elevator, someone noticed that something was wrong with Lu Xiaoyun and asked in a low voice, "Secretary Lu, why do you look so pale? Didn't you get enough rest?"

Everyone else turned to look at Lu Xiaoyun, and Shen Yixiao was no exception.

Lu Xiaoyun's face was as pale as paper, the corners of her eyes were red, and her usually pink lips were a little dull at this moment, making her look as if she was lacking in blood.

In the eyes of everyone, she met Shen Yixiao's gaze with tears in her eyes, then tilted her head slightly, bit her lower lip, and said with grievance in her voice, "I'm fine, I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me."

"Secretary Lu, if you don't get enough rest, you can extend your vacation. Your salary and performance will not be deducted." I said softly.

Everyone immediately sighed at my kindness and generosity. Shen Yixiao smiled and raised his hand to gently smooth the hair by my ear.

When Lu Xiaoyun saw this scene, her eyes almost turned red and bled.

"No, ma'am, there are a lot of tasks that need me to follow up personally, and I'm afraid of causing trouble to President Shen." Lu Xiaoyun smiled, and this answer was to highlight her importance.

At this time, the elevator arrived at the Human Resources Department, and I went out first. When the elevator door closed, I saw Lu Xiaoyun's eyes, which were full of resentment.

Maybe because we had a fight last night, Shen Yixiao was particularly clingy today. In addition to constantly sending me messages, he also came to the Human Resources Department to see me from time to time.

This annoying action made others unable to help but whisper.

"Wife, I have an appointment with a doctor." After get off work, Shen Yixiao picked me up and walked with me. In the parking lot, he held my hand and said to me.

I didn't quite understand. "Doctor?"

"Well, don't you want to try to see if we can have a child of our own? That doctor is quite good. Liang Feng said that many people became pregnant after seeing him." Shen Yixiao replied.
