Chapter 78 An unexpected falling out

I took a deep breath and tried to make my attitude worse, saying, "Didn't I take responsibility? No matter how good or bad the past few years were, I never contacted my family, nor did I cry to you or regret anything. Now you are the one who took the initiative to find me and ask about my affairs, aren't you? Look at me, have I ever asked about your affairs?"

"I'm actually a DINK. It doesn't matter if I have children or not, so you don't need to worry about me. I already have my own life."

In the end, I found an excuse and asked Xu Zhengnan to completely forget the fact that I couldn't have children.

Maybe one day he will tell my parents what I said, and when they know I am still this stupid, they will not worry about me anymore and will just hate me.

Xu Zhengnan sat down again, his facial expression unclear. His eyelashes cast shadows on his eyelids, completely hiding the emotions in his eyes at the moment.

I resisted the urge to apologize and left the store without looking back.

When I got back to the car, I found myself in tears. After hurriedly wiping away my tears, I drove home.

While waiting for the green light, I took the time to send a message to Liang Feng: Do you know where Shen Yixiao is?

He said he was going to have dinner with Director Li, but I don’t know the details.

Strangely, Liang Feng didn’t reply to me this time.

I didn't receive any reply from him until I returned home.

“Boss Shen, you…” Suddenly, the servant’s surprised and worried voice sounded, and I turned my head to see that Shen Yixiao was back, and Meng Zicheng was with him.

Shen Yixiao had obvious injuries on his face and blood on his clothes, as if he had been injured in a conflict with someone.

I stood up and walked over, my eyes swept over Meng Zicheng, and he immediately explained, "Sister-in-law, there was a misunderstanding between Brother Xiao and Liang Feng today, and they both drank, so they started fighting."

This answer surprised me. Shen Yixiao and Liang Feng were fighting?

How could two men who are as close as brothers fight?

Meng Zicheng wanted to say something but stopped himself. In the end, he said nothing more. He made the excuse that he had to go to the hospital to check on Liang Feng's condition and left quickly.

Shen Yixiao sat on the sofa with a gloomy face, holding his coat tightly in his hands. There were broken skin and blood on the back of his hands and joints, and his fists hit him hard.

"What's going on? Aren't you going to have dinner with Director Li?" I went to get the medicine box and asked in confusion.

"I finished dinner with Director Li, and Liang Feng asked me to go for a drink. We couldn't agree on something, so we got into a fight. It's okay." Shen Yixiao answered perfunctorily.

No matter how I asked, he didn't elaborate on the matter.

Halfway through applying the medicine, he suddenly looked straight at me and asked, "No matter what happens, will you never leave me?"

Before I could answer, he grabbed my hand again, as if he was afraid of something.

My intuition tells me that the conflict between him and Liang Feng is most likely because of me.

Could it be that Liang Feng couldn't bear the pressure and told me everything about the evidence he provided me of Shen Yixiao's cheating?

No, then Shen Yixiao’s reaction should be stronger.

I couldn't figure this out, so I could only give a perfunctory answer, "Well, no."

Shen Yixiao relaxed all over, he kissed the corner of my mouth, got up and walked upstairs, "I'll go take a shower and apply the medicine."

I didn't say anything, just watched his back disappear down the stairwell.

I waited until Shen Yixiao finished taking a shower before I went up to apply medicine on him. Maybe he was in a bad mood, he didn't talk much, and he exuded a particularly dull aura.

When I go to sleep at night, no matter how I push him, he will continue to hug me tightly.

——

Shen Yixiao was injured and planned to go to the company in two days to avoid arousing suspicion.

He tried to get me to stay home as well, but I refused.

After arriving at the company, I clocked in and went directly to the president's office. When the group of secretaries saw me, they had different expressions on their faces.

Lu Xiaoyun had submitted her resignation, but the procedures had not been completed yet, so she needed to continue working. When she saw me, her eyes immediately glanced behind me.

I knew she was looking for Shen Yixiao.

"Mr. Shen will not come to the company today. If you have any important matters, you can call him. If you have any documents, just give them to me directly." I said and entered the office.

I don't know how to handle company affairs at all. I just took the opportunity to try whether the safe in Shen Yixiao's office can be opened.

He is a cautious man, so it stands to reason that his office would be equipped with surveillance cameras.

But he had done something wrong and couldn't pretend, otherwise the erotic affair between him and Lu Xiaoyun in the office would be exposed.

I came to the safe. I had taken photos of it and checked the manufacturer of the safe, as well as how to use it, how to unlock it, and so on.

In my previous life, Shen Yixiao never told me the password, so I could only try the cracking method I learned on the Internet.

I calmed myself and tried step by step according to the video, but failed. There was a thick layer of sweat on my back and I was extremely tense.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

I quickly stood up and went back to sit at the desk, "Come in."

Lu Xiaoyun pushed the door open and walked in, holding a document in her hand. She looked at me, walked over calmly, and placed the document in front of me.

I thought she would go out immediately, but she just stood there motionless.

"Secretary Lu, do you have anything else to say?" I raised my eyebrows and asked.

"Ms. Li, I think you owe me an explanation and an apology." I don't know what was wrong with Lu Xiaoyun. She actually asked me to explain and apologize to her for making things difficult for her during the filming and causing her to resign.

She seemed very determined to save her dignity in front of me, afraid of losing to me, "You have seen the pictures of me and my boyfriend, I did not lie, so your doubts about me are an insult."

In that case, I would like to ask her a few questions.

I stood up and looked at her at eye level, and asked coldly, "Really? Secretary Lu, when Mr. Shen is here, call me Madam, and when he is not here, you call me Miss Li, which is interesting."

Lu Xiaoyun smiled disapprovingly, her eyes full of arrogance, "I will resign soon. I may not be worse than you in the future. Everyone is equal, right?"

I nodded, "Yes, let's get back to the point. What's your boyfriend's name? What industry does he work in? How old is he? Since you have such a good relationship, why did Shen Yixiao send Meng Zicheng and others to sign for you during your abortion surgery? Where is your boyfriend?"

Lu Xiaoyun's face suddenly turned ugly.

She came to trouble me simply because she felt that Shen Yixiao supported her resignation and wanted to promote her to become an actress. She had a bright future and was deeply loved by Shen Yixiao, so she didn't need to be so humble to me.

But she forgot that a lie is often full of loopholes and requires countless lies to cover it up.

"Why don't you introduce your boyfriend to me? He looks handsome in the photo and is a good match for you." I smiled and continued.

Those photoshopped photos show a face completely different from Shen Yixiao's. Where can she find a man who looks exactly like him?
