Chapter 360 She Fears the Golden Cage
Facing the man's aggressiveness, Shen Xiyi struggled hard to break free from his shackles, like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
"I just promised you not to divorce and to satisfy your needs, but I never promised you to live in Liangyuan."
Shen Xiyi rejected that place both physically and mentally.
How she was locked up in the tower night after night? The huge Liangyuan was just an exquisite cage.
Liang Junchen's eyes suddenly became sharper: "What did you say?"
Shen Xiyi raised her eyes and swiftly avoided his outstretched hand: "I've made it very clear, we can live anywhere, but I don't want to go to Liangyuan."
Shen Xiyi felt a ball of anger building up in her chest. She was afraid that she couldn't help it, so she turned around and was about to leave.
The moment she turned around, Liang Junchen's eyes became uncontrollably sinister.
He quickly followed her, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her back.
"Chen Xiyi, since we are husband and wife, we should act like husband and wife. What's wrong with us doing this?"
Liang Junchen insisted on dwelling on this issue, and Shen Xiyi gave up struggling and took a deep breath.
"Have you forgotten how you imprisoned me in the Lake Center Tower?"
Liang Junchen was suddenly stunned. When Shen Xiyi mentioned this matter, it seemed that his memories of the past gradually became clearer.
The hand that was holding hers loosened instantly. It wasn't that he didn't remember, but after so many years, he subconsciously wanted to blur the lines about the stupid things he had done.
Shen Xiyi rubbed her wrist, only to feel her throat sore and swollen, and she felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to cry.
She feared the golden cage she once was.
"I have a dinner appointment with Liang Nian. I will send Baozhu back to Liang Garden later. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
After Shen Xiyi finished speaking, she turned and left. Liang Junchen stood there in a daze, watching her leaving back.
In the car, Liang Nian saw Liang Junchen standing there in a daze in the rearview mirror, and he couldn't help but worry.
"Sister-in-law, did you have a fight with my brother?"
"No."
Although Shen Xiyi was denying it, her expression couldn't lie, and her bad mood was unconsciously written on her face.
Liang Nian is now extremely anxious every day and has no time to care about the relationship between Liang Junchen and Shen Xiyi.
"Mom, you look unhappy." Baozhu climbed up from the back seat and leaned close to Shen Xiyi's ear.
Shen Xiyi used his fingers to push the child's head back: "Sit still and don't move."
Seeing this, Liang Nian immediately grabbed Baozhu and pressed her down on the seat: "Be good, listen to your mother. This is in the car. If you brake suddenly by mistake, you will get hurt."
Baozhu pouted but didn't refute. Her father also told her to behave properly when riding in a car.
But mom looks really unhappy. Even though she is young, she will also be anxious. What if mom and dad quarrel?
Liang Nian ate the Hunan cuisine she had been longing for, and the spicy taste brought great satisfaction to her taste buds.
During the whole process, she did not ask what happened between Shen Xiyi and Liang Junchen. Under her instruction, Baozhu could only shut up and not ask anything.
"You have a good appetite, but these dishes are too spicy. Can you bear it?" Shen Xiyi looked at Liang Nian eating with a satisfied look on his face and felt a little worried.
Liang Nian shook his head: "Sister-in-law, you don't know. I rarely eat such spicy food at home. The nanny is from the south and cooks light dishes. Professor Xu likes it, so I'm embarrassed to ask to change it."
After all, it was Xu Yuanmo who was controlling Liang Nian's diet in disguise.
"I was really lucky to not have any other problems during my pregnancy. There's no need to worry too much. Some people may have a hard time giving birth, but there are also many who have smooth births without much pain."
Judging from Liang Nian's pelvic condition and the baby's weight, she is very likely to give birth naturally in the future.
"Yeah." Liang Nian didn't say much about this, just nodded.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you eat? Aren't you hungry?"
Shen Xiyi smiled: "Not hungry."
I was extremely depressed after the incident with Liang Junchen just now. How could I have any mood to eat?
Liang Nian whispered, "How about I take Baozhu back to Liang Garden after dinner? You look a little tired."
"Professor Xu is here to pick you up?"
"Yes." Liang Nian would still take the initiative to report where he was going now, so as to avoid Xu Yuanmo calling him constantly.
Shen Xiyi looked at Baozhu who was eating snacks obediently beside him and nodded slightly.
After staring at Baozhu for a while, Shen Xiyi slowly took the snack from her hand: “You’ve eaten a bit too much junk food today.”
Baozhu looked at Shen Xiyi reluctantly as he took the snacks away, feeling a little aggrieved.
"Mom, I didn't eat much."
"Baozhu, Mommy let you eat ice cream today, but you can't tell anyone when you get home, okay?"
Shen Xiyi thought of Liang Junchen's temper, and she was still a little scared.
Liang Junchen had told her before that Baozhu should try not to eat outside.
But in the face of Shen Xiyi's doting mood, she quickly forgot Liang Junchen's advice.
Shen Xiyi was still thinking about how to meet Liang Junchen tonight, but she didn't know that she had already reached the edge of the storm.
After being abandoned by Shen Xiyi, Liang Junchen returned to Shen Xiyi's residence in a depressed mood.
I don't know what was wrong with him, but he suddenly started rummaging around in the bedroom.
He really wanted to know how much weight he had in Shen Xiyi's heart now, and he wanted to know what was more important in Shen Xiyi's heart?
Later he opened the jewelry box in the cloakroom, and found a small bottle of medicine hidden inside besides the jewelry.
Liang Junchen felt bad when he saw this thing hidden so secretly. He picked up the bottle of medicine with trembling hands.
Short-acting contraceptive pills.
Liang Junchen suddenly felt as if something had hit his heart hard, and the medicine bottle in his hand fell back into the jewelry box.
No wonder they did it almost every day, and Shen Xiyi never mentioned any contraceptive measures. He thought Shen Xiyi had a natural attitude towards having children.
It turned out that she was just secretly taking birth control pills without his knowledge, which was a very reasonable way of preventing pregnancy.
This heart-wrenching feeling tortured Liang Junchen, and it was as if Shen Xiyi had never had any feelings for him.
She didn't want them to be like an ordinary couple, nor did she want to have any more children.
The intense pain forced the man to barely walk out of the bedroom, and then he sat powerlessly on the sofa in the living room.
At half past ten in the evening, Shen Xiyi finally came back.
When she opened the door, she found the house was pitch black. Standing at the entrance, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that Liang Junchen had returned to Liangyuan.
The uneasiness I felt on the way back disappeared at this moment.
It wasn't until she walked into the living room and saw the man sitting quietly on the sofa that she was startled.
"Why don't you turn on the lights at home?" Shen Xiyi was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat. He subconsciously touched his chest and his face turned pale.
She was really scared.
