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 60 Taking Responsibility for Lu Xiaoyun
Meng Zicheng and Liang Feng also came.
What surprised me was that Su Ying was following behind them.
"Yueyue, you are so disloyal!" Su Ying complained as soon as she saw me, "If Meng Zicheng hadn't told me that you and Shen Yixiao were going to have a picnic today, I wouldn't have known. You didn't even want to take me with you. This is too much!"
When she came closer, I noticed that she had scars on her face. Even though they were covered up with makeup, they were still visible.
Meng Zicheng said with a smile, "My suggestion is good, isn't it? Sister-in-law, you see, Brother Xiao is most afraid of you getting angry, so I will put down my work today and take you out to relax, how great, don't be angry."
Liang Feng was wearing a baseball cap, with only half of his face showing. When he heard this, he glanced in our direction.
Su Ying poked Meng Zicheng and said, "Try to find a girlfriend who gets angry easily. She will torture you to death."
"Are you prone to anger? I'll come find you." Meng Zicheng said.
The two of them started making ambiguous jokes as if no one was around, and I felt annoyed listening to them.
Originally, Liang Feng was going to ride in the same car with Meng Zicheng and Su Ying, but he chose to ride in my and Shen Yixiao's car. In the car, he said, "Those two are so annoying."
“Haha, you can find someone to bother with too.” Shen Yixiao replied while driving.
I sat in the back and let Liang Feng sit in the passenger seat, listening to their conversation.
From the time I met Liang Feng until now, he has been single. There was a time when someone said that he was gay and liked Shen Yixiao, so the two of them sneaked over and beat up that person.
Liang Feng smiled and said, "My family is urging me to go on a blind date."
His family was not much better than Shen Yixiao's. His mother died when he was born, and his father remarried and had two more children. He was like a transparent person at home and no one cared about him.
I didn't expect his parents would urge him to get married. It's really strange.
"Then did you agree?" Shen Yixiao asked again.
"Well, I've met a few. One of them is pretty good. I'm still getting to know him." Liang Feng replied.
I was a little surprised that Liang Feng actually agreed to the blind date?
While we were chatting, we arrived at our destination. Other people had already set up tents by the lake. Adults were having an open-air barbecue, children were catching butterflies with nets, and some were fishing by the lake and grilling the fish they caught.
Shen Yixiao and the other three men were setting up the tent, while Su Ying and I were preparing snacks. I asked, "How did you get the wound on your face?"
"Don't mention it!" Su Ying was furious when she talked about this. "Didn't you compensate Qiu Xinlian? That fat woman actually sent someone to beat me up. Damn it!"
"How could that be? Why didn't you call the police?" I pretended to be surprised.
Su Ying touched the wound on her face and said, "Forget it. I still have to make money from her in the future. Besides, calling the police may not do anything to her."
She had thought this through very clearly.
The corners of my lips curled up, and my mood improved a little. After arranging the snacks and other things, I started to prepare the grill and ingredients. Su Ying followed beside me.
She asked me tentatively, "Did you have a fight with Shen Yixiao? I heard from Meng Zicheng that your company lost a document, and only you and Secretary Lu were suspects, but he chose to believe Secretary Lu."
Meng Zicheng has a really big mouth.
I said "hmm" and there was no response.
Su Ying's eyes showed a trace of disappointment, "You are not angry? He is your husband. It's too much for him to believe other women and not you."
After this happened, I didn't have a big fight with Shen Yixiao or harbor resentment towards him. Su Ying really didn't expect that this was not the show she wanted to see.
I glanced at Shen Yixiao who was not far away and replied, “I choose to believe him.”
"What if he is having an affair with that Secretary Lu?" Su Ying almost said it directly.
My eyes darkened, "If he cheats on me, I will divorce him."
Su Ying's expression improved, and it was time for her to Pua me again, "Then there is no need to divorce, in fact, a man like Shen Yixiao, who is rich and handsome, must have a lot of women eyeing him. He treats you well and gives you money, which is enough. You can't find anyone better if you leave him."
As she spoke, her voice became softer because the look in my eyes became colder and colder.
"I'm doing this for your own good. How many men in modern society don't cheat? If you divorce someone after cheating, won't that just let the woman outside get away with it?" Su Ying was still quibbling.
"What you said makes sense. Have you considered asking your parents to remarry? Try to persuade your mom." I divided the ingredients and smiled sarcastically.
Su Ying's father cheated on her many years ago, and her mother chose to divorce her in anger. This is a scar in her heart.
When I mentioned it, she became like a hedgehog, spreading all her thorns. "Li Yue, I treat you as a friend and that's why I care about you. You don't have to bring up my parents, right?!"
"I only consider you as a friend and care about you, so I advise you to persuade your parents to remarry and give you a complete family." I said confidently and was not irritated by her words at all.
Su Ying was so angry that she threw her things away and walked away.
I ignored him, and then Shen Yixiao came over and told me, "Zi Cheng and I are going to go fishing downstairs, you guys get the barbecue started."
"Okay." I nodded.
Shen Yixiao and Meng Zicheng went fishing, and Liang Feng came over to help me with the barbecue. He didn't talk much and was always taciturn, but his technique was very skillful. I just had to wait to eat.
I took two skewers of grilled beef and walked down the dam to see if Shen Yixiao and the others had caught any fish.
When I was still two or three meters away from them, I heard Meng Zicheng's voice, "Hey, Brother Xiao, this is not a decent thing for you. You can just play around, but how can you still protect Secretary Lu in front of your sister-in-law?"
"I know I did something wrong." Shen Yixiao's voice was deep and full of regret. "My heart has been too scattered during this period. I thought about it for a long time yesterday. I shouldn't have treated Li Yue like that. She has suffered too much for me and put in too much effort."
Meng Zicheng sighed, "As a man, it's okay to have fun, but the red flag at home must not fall."
He then asked, "Have you found the file?"
Shen Yixiao's voice became even lower, "I found it. Lu Xiaoyun accidentally took it out and put it in her workstation drawer. Later, she found it and brought it to me. I didn't tell anyone else. She just had a baby for me. I can't let her have so much pressure, otherwise, am I still a man?"
Listening to his words, it felt like a slap in the face, burning with pain.
Lu Xiaoyun's carelessness made me bear unwarranted suspicion. The people in the secretariat must have thought that I had taken the wrong thing, and it might even be spread privately throughout the company.
In order to act like a man and protect Lu Xiaoyun, who lost her child for him, Shen Yixiao chose to push the blame onto me and put the responsibility on his own shoulders.
He said he just put it into the safe and refused to tell anyone else that it was Lu Xiaoyun's fault, let alone me.
Has he forgotten that what I lost for him was not just a child, but the right to be a mother, family affection and friendship, and my bright future.
