Chapter Fifty-Four: Hidden Pain in My Heart



Xu Yanshu had just sat down in the ward when the doctor came to check on him.

Thinking that he might be able to get a more accurate analysis, Xu Yanshu hesitated before asking, "Doctor, why did my grandmother suddenly faint this time?"

"Based on our analysis, it is very likely that the elderly person was stimulated."

Stimulated?!

Xu Yanshu frowned slightly, his expression darkening.

If that's the reason, he's 100% certain that his grandmother's fainting was related to Lu Huai.

Turning to look at her grandmother's peaceful sleeping face, Xu Yanshu felt a mix of emotions, regretting that she hadn't been more careful; otherwise, Lu Huai wouldn't have had the chance to take advantage of the situation.

Even if it can be confirmed that the person who entered the room was Lu Huai, without other evidence, it's probably not appropriate to really do that to him...

Xu Yanshu's aura subtly darkened, and just as he was about to fall into deep thought, his phone rang.

Attorney Li? He frowned in confusion, unsure what the other party wanted, and stood up and walked to the side before answering the phone.

"Attorney Li, it's me!"

“Yan Shu, I really did wrong you before. If you are determined to get a divorce, I can recommend another lawyer to you. The Xie family can’t compete with his background.”

Xu Yanshu was somewhat surprised, not expecting there to be a follow-up to this matter, and given the current situation, he did indeed need a lawyer.

"Then I'll have to trouble Attorney Li. I definitely want a divorce, but I have something more important to do right now."

...

The following day, after the high-level meeting concluded, Xie Junyang called Xie Huanyu to the conference room alone.

"I've already set a limit on your personal account. I'll remove the limit once you get pregnant."

Xie Huanyu suddenly raised her head and asked incredulously, "Dad, what are you doing?"

"Do you really think I know nothing?" Xie Junyang slammed his hand on the table in a fit of rage, veins bulging on his forehead.

"I let it go before, since he knows I'm the one who ruined their family. Do you really think you can make them feel indebted to you by doing this?"

He only discovered this when he was taking stock of his assets. He never expected that this fool would be so hopeless, still throwing money at that guy surnamed Lu even now.

Ah Huai knows?!

Xie Huanyu was suddenly stunned. If Ah Huai knew, why had he never told him?

Seeing his daughter's reaction, Xie Junyang chuckled dismissively and asked indignantly, "You don't think the Lu family knows nothing, do you?"

"Xie Huanyu, Xie Huanyu, why are you becoming more and more brainless?"

He couldn't help but feel a little angry at her lack of ambition. She was his only daughter, and naturally he had been raising her as his heir since she was little.

Seeing that she was quite capable at work, I thought that with Xu Yanshu by her side to help her, there wouldn't be any major problems. I never expected that she would be such a love-struck person who couldn't distinguish right from wrong.

Xie Huanyu hesitated, her expression becoming complicated.

She hesitated to speak because she was afraid Ah Huai would hold a grudge if he found out. But why didn't Ah Huai mention it either? Was it to avoid embarrassment, or did he have some hidden purpose...?

“Lu Huai is no good person. I told you that long ago. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone abroad without a word…”

Xie Huanyu was lost in her own thoughts when her father suddenly brought up this old story.

Her hidden pain was unexpectedly touched, and she retorted without thinking.

"Do you really think I don't know that you secretly contacted him back then?"

At the time, she thought that she and Ah Huai were just having their usual arguments and cold wars. She never expected that he would go abroad a few days later. This was a huge blow to him.

Later, Ah Huai mentioned that he learned it was because his father had privately approached him and expressed his firm opposition to their relationship, which made him disheartened and choose to go abroad.

Now she and Ah Huai are just ordinary friends, yet he still targets and slanders her at every turn. It's simply unreasonable!

Xie Junyang showed no embarrassment at being exposed, and instead turned around to question the other party.

"So what if he knows? A mere ten million is enough to make him give you up. What's the point of keeping a man like that around?"

This...this is utterly sophistry!

Xie Huanyu was speechless, but she was still furious. She mustered up her courage, glared at the person in front of her, and then turned and walked out of the office.

In truth, she couldn't let go of the fact that Lu Huai had given up on her so easily back then.

But the matter is in the past, and now she only treats Ah Huai as an ordinary friend, so there seems to be no point in dwelling on it anymore.

Feeling inexplicably unwilling to stay at the company, Xie Huanyu went to the underground parking lot to get her car, and after hesitating for a moment, went directly to the hospital.

Even if you don't care about the monk, you should still care about the Buddha. Although Xu Yanshu is now very unpleasant to look at, my grandmother has always been very kind to me, so as her granddaughter-in-law, I should visit her more often.

When Xu Yanshu arrived at the ward, he was wiping the old man's hands and face.

Xie Huanyu stepped forward and said softly, "You go back to your apartment and rest. I'll take care of Grandma!"

"No need to trouble you, I'll be staying at the hospital for the time being."

This aloof attitude left Xie Huanyu speechless, as if she had finally reached her limit and spoke.

"Xu Yanshu, what have I done to you? I tried to help you out of kindness, and this is how you treat me?"

The man paused slightly as he poured the water, noticing Xie Huanyu's innocent expression out of the corner of his eye. He curled his lips in a cryptic smile, feeling a touch of irony in his heart.

He has already become Lu Huai's accomplice, yet he is still pretending to be a good person, hoping that I will be grateful to him. His behavior is exactly the same as Xie Junyang's.

"It's nothing, I just don't like to bother others!"

But she is his wife!

Xie Huanyu hesitated, realizing that the other party was clearly trying to distance themselves from her. If she continued to say something, she would seem like a sycophant.

"In that case, please come to the company on time tomorrow to clock in. Don't let your personal reasons continue to delay everyone's progress."

See? The moment you stop cooperating with the performance, this woman turns on you immediately.

“Okay, Mr. Xie, I will definitely be at the company on time tomorrow,” Xu Yanshu nodded seriously and replied with a formulaic expression. “If there’s nothing else, you may leave now!”

this……

Xie Huanyu glared fiercely at the person, feeling she hadn't even bothered coming all this way. After withdrawing her gaze, she resolutely turned and walked out of the ward.
