Chapter 109 If you don't love, then ignore it
Shen Shuang's movements were swift and decisive, showing no mercy.
Instantly, water streamed down Zhao Mobai's hair and cheeks, soaking the front of his expensive shirt.
Zhao Mobai jolted awake, his struggling movements abruptly ceasing.
His eyes gradually cleared, and he stared blankly at Shen Shuangmiao, as if he didn't recognize her.
The corridor was deathly silent.
Everyone was stunned by Shen Shuangmiao's sudden action.
Fu Xuan was stunned.
Zhu Jin's subordinates behind him also looked surprised.
A flash of surprise crossed Zhu Jin's eyes, followed by a surge of pleasure and secret delight.
It seems that she ultimately couldn't stand Zhao Mobai's disgraceful appearance.
She still cared about him.
At the very least, he couldn't stand Zhao Mobai being his enemy.
A secret joy flickered in Zhu Jin's eyes, and the gloom and exhaustion of the past few days vanished from his heart.
The way he looked at Shen Shuangmiao almost carried a hint of expectation.
However, Shen Shuangmiao's expression remained completely emotionless, as if a bucket of even colder ice water had extinguished all his hopes.
She didn't even glance at Zhu Jin, as if he didn't exist. She casually tossed the empty bottle into the nearby trash can with a soft thud.
Shen Shuang skillfully wiped the water droplets splashed on her face with the back of her hand, and her gaze returned to Zhao Mobai.
Her tone was calm, but tinged with impatience.
"Are you more awake now? Can you walk by yourself? If you can, hurry up and leave, don't embarrass yourself here."
Water droplets were still dripping down Zhao Mobai's face.
He looked at Shen Shuangmiao, his eyes filled with complex emotions, somewhat dazed and confused.
After two seconds, Zhao Mobai didn't speak, but just nodded silently, trying to steady himself.
Seeing this, Shen Shuangmiao gave Fu Xuan a wink.
The two men grabbed him again.
This time, Zhao Mobai cooperated much better, letting them help him.
From beginning to end, Shen Shuangmiao did not give Zhu Jin even a glance.
She supported Zhao Mobai, brushed past Zhu Jin, and walked straight toward the exit, resolute and indifferent.
Zhu Jin stood frozen in place.
He watched as Shen Shuangmiao carefully supported another man's arm, and watched her cold indifference towards him from beginning to end. A chill spread from the deepest part of his heart, instantly freezing his limbs and bones.
It turns out that the bottle of water wasn't for him. It might not even have been for Zhao Mobai.
She just wanted to end that farce, which she considered shameful, as soon as possible.
Just to get rid of this troublesome guy.
Zhu Jin stood there, the light at the end of the corridor stretching his lonely shadow long.
Everyone behind them looked at each other, not daring to utter a sound.
downstairs.
The two men helped Zhao Mobai into the car, and remained silent the entire way.
Zhao Mobai leaned back in his chair, his eyes closed, his wet hair plastered to his forehead.
I don't know if it was because I was too drunk, or because the water was too strong.
Zhao Mobai stopped his drunken rampage and simply slumped silently by the window.
The car was parked downstairs at one of Zhao Mobai's villas.
Fu Xuan and Shen Shuangmiao helped him upstairs with difficulty and settled him on the large bed in the master bedroom.
"Miaomiao, over here..."
Fu Xuan looked at Zhao Mobai, who was completely drunk and unconscious, and then at Shen Shuangmiao, hesitating.
It's inconvenient for a man and a woman to be alone together.
“It’s alright,” Shen Shuangmiao said, rubbing her aching arm. “There’s nothing he can do like this. You should go back now. It’s late. I’ll leave once he’s settled down.”
Fu Xuan knew she knew her limits, so he nodded and said, "Okay, call me anytime if you need anything."
Shen Shuang smiled.
After she saw Fu Xuan off, only the two of them remained in the huge villa.
Shen Shuangmiao went to the bathroom to wring out a hot towel, walked back to the bedside, and wanted to wipe Zhao Mobai's face.
Just as she bent down, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by a burning hot hand.
Caught off guard, Shen Shuangmiao fell onto Zhao Mobai.
"Don't go..."
Zhao Mobai opened his eyes at some point.
Those usually languid and smiling peach blossom eyes were now bloodshot, filled with pain and vulnerability.
Zhao Mobai suddenly pulled the unsuspecting Shen Shuangmiao into his arms.
He hugged her tightly around the waist and buried his burning face in Shen Shuangmiao's arms.
"Don't go, Shuangmiao, don't leave me..."
His voice came through muffledly, trembling with a sob.
Shen Shuangmiao's body stiffened instantly.
She instinctively tried to push him away, "Zhao Mobai, let go!"
Shen Shuangmiao placed her hands on his strong shoulders and pushed him outwards with force.
A drunk man can be incredibly strong.
Zhao Mobai hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to embed himself into Shen Shuangmiao's body.
"I lost, I lost everything..."
He repeated himself incoherently, tears streaming down his face, soaking Shen Shuangmiao's clothes.
"They're all laughing at me, waiting for me to fall."
"No, I'm not that vulnerable. I can make a comeback..."
"Don't go, stay with me, just for a little while."
Zhao Mobai's crying was not a loud wail, but a broken sob that came from deep in his throat.
It was as if he had finally found a safe harbor to rely on, and he clung to it tightly, unwilling to let go.
Shen Shuangmiao's struggles gradually became powerless.
She could feel his body trembling, and she could feel all the resentment and humiliation contained in Zhao Mobai's tears.
At this moment, Zhao Mobai was neither the shrewd and carefree CEO of the Zhao Group, nor the fiancé with whom she made a cold deal.
He was just a fragile man crushed by reality, desperately needing some warmth and support.
Shen Shuangmiao sighed, slowly lowered her raised hand, and her stiff body gradually relaxed.
In the end, she couldn't bring herself to harden her heart.
She couldn't bring herself to push him away at a time when he was so vulnerable and breaking down.
Shen Shuangmiao simply sat there quietly, letting Zhao Mobai hold her, letting his tears soak her clothes.
She didn't respond to his embrace, nor did she offer any words of comfort; she simply remained silent, serving as a silent source of support.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Mobai's crying gradually subsided, turning into intermittent sobs, and the grip on her arms slowly loosened.
He couldn't hold on any longer and fell into a deep sleep.
Even in his sleep, Zhao Mobai's brows were still tightly furrowed, and there were still tear stains on his face, making him look exceptionally vulnerable.
Shen Shuangmiao then carefully pulled away from his embrace little by little, covered him with a blanket, and gently wiped away the tear stains on his face and neck with a hot towel.
After doing all this, she stood by the bed, looking at the man who was usually so carefree and unrestrained, but now so helpless, and felt a mix of emotions.
Shen Shuangmiao took out her phone and sent a message to the private restaurant she frequented, ordering hot porridge and side dishes to be delivered to her door the next morning, and setting the delivery time.
She quietly turned off the bedroom light, closed the door, and left.
It was late at night when we got back to the villa.
The empty, cold room was eerily silent.
Shen Shuangmiao took a shower, trying to wash away the lingering smell of alcohol.
But lying in bed, she couldn't fall asleep.
