Su Yuxi was taken aback by his words, and pouted unconvinced, thinking to herself: You've already sent over the divorce papers, so there's no need to say anything more.
Oh, suddenly she remembered, she hadn't given him the things yet, so she asked, "Are you here to get the divorce papers?"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding air seemed to freeze for three seconds.
Fu Huaijin's face instantly tightened like a string. In the quiet environment, you could hear his teeth grinding slightly behind his lips. Finally, he forced out a cold laugh from between his teeth: "Heh."
This woman probably wanted to divorce him a long time ago.
The first thing she said when he came in was what he was doing there, and the next thing she said was that she was eager to get a divorce.
Su Yuxi could tell he was in a bad mood. These past two days she had been busy buying a house, a car, and all sorts of necessities, and in the process, she had completely forgotten about this matter.
"If you're in a hurry, I'll go get it for you now." It should still be in that bag; taking it out and signing it won't take much time.
She didn't dare look at Fu Huaijin's gloomy face anymore. She supported herself on her knees with both hands and slowly stood up, her movements filled with a sense of caution.
As soon as she took a step, her arm was gripped tightly by a strong force, causing her to lose her balance. Just as she was about to fall, she was lifted into the air and landed steadily in a warm and firm embrace before she could even scream.
Startled, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Fu Huaijin's neck to steady herself.
Su Yuxi pressed her pounding heart and looked up, wanting to angrily curse the man's crazy behavior. However, she was met with a terrifying look of resentment surging in the man's eyes, as if he wanted to devour her. The words of her curse were silenced between her lips and teeth, and her momentum instantly weakened.
"Are you in such a hurry to divorce me?" Fu Huaijin's voice was as cold as ice, and every word he uttered was like a heavy hammer, striking her heart.
"Su Yuxi, do you have no heart?"
How have I treated her all this time? Doesn't she see any of it? He dares to give, and she actually dares to accept.
They still dare to bring it up.
It seems I gave it to her too late, wasting her time.
Su Yuxi bit her red lips lightly, her eyes suddenly reddening, like a wronged little fox. Her voice trembled slightly as she asked, aggrieved, "Didn't you give it to me?"
"You gave me the divorce papers, doesn't that mean you want a divorce?"
"Since it's what you want, what's wrong with me agreeing to it?"
Looking at her pitiful little face, Fu Huaijin felt no pity. Instead, he was so angry that his teeth were grinding. In the end, he couldn't help but give her a light slap on her little bottom.
I only meant to teach her a little lesson, but when I slapped her again, the tears that had been building up in my arms spilled uncontrollably from her eyes and streamed down her cheeks.
This sudden turn of events startled Fu Huaijin, instantly extinguishing all his anger. He hurriedly placed her on the sofa, awkwardly and urgently wiping away her tears with both hands, his eyes filled with panic and helplessness.
"Did it hurt? I'm sorry." But I didn't use much force.
"Waaaaah...you hit me..." Su Yuxi angrily brushed his hands away, covered her face with her hands, and wailed, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances and bitterness that had been building up over the past few days. For her, it wasn't just a slap; it was the fuse that ignited the repression in her heart.
Was it easy for her all alone? Not only was she betrayed by the person closest to her, but she also came back to be handed a cold divorce agreement.
He was the one who wanted a divorce; she was just going along with it.
Was she wrong? Why did they have to hit her?
"You're all bad people, you're all bullying me..." Su Yuxi became more and more heartbroken as she thought about it, her cries were so heartbreaking, more so than if several of her parents had died.
"I...I...I..." Fu Huaijin was flustered and didn't know what to do. He was filled with regret, wondering why his hands had been so impulsive.
"Xi Xi, don't cry, or you can hit me back." He grabbed Su Yu Xi's hands and made her hit him hard on the face.
Several crisp slapping sounds immediately echoed in the air.
Startled by his action, Su Yuxi's eyes, which had been filled with tears, widened instantly, and she stopped crying, forcefully pulling her hand back.
Fu Huaijin then grabbed her shoulders with both hands, abandoning all pretense and pride. From the very first day she arrived, she should have let go of everything.
He began to defend himself: "It was my fault. I just wanted to see if you would feel any reluctance towards me when you received the divorce papers."
“I didn’t come here today to ask for a divorce agreement; I just wanted to come see you.”
"I'm the bastard."
"It's my fault."
"You can hit me or scold me, but don't get a divorce."
"None of us can say those two words."
Su Yuxi sniffed twice. The situation had turned around so quickly that she didn't know how to react.
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her lower abdomen. She hissed softly and placed her hand on her lower abdomen. For a moment, she thought she felt the baby kicking inside her.
Fu Huaijin saw her clutching her lower abdomen and his heart jumped into his throat: "What's wrong? Is your stomach upset? Let's go to the hospital to get it checked out."
Su Yuxi shook her head, then suddenly chuckled, her eyes glistening with tears: "No, it seems like the baby kicked me."
"Kick you?" Fu Huaijin also reached out and pressed his hand on her lower abdomen, feeling carefully, but there was no movement.
"So young and already kicking people?"
"It's not small anymore." Su Yuxi pushed his hand away and protected her belly. She knew that her emotional fluctuations had made the baby uncomfortable, which was why it kicked her to remind her.
It's all this man's fault.
"Is it okay?" Fu Huaijin answered in accordance with her words, not daring to disobey her at all now.
Are you hungry? Would you like me to cook for you?
He didn't have a better way to approach the situation, so he had no choice but to shamelessly take on the cooking job.
Su Yuxi turned her head to look at him, and unconsciously moved her body a little closer to the sofa: "No, I can order takeout myself, and I can eat out by myself."
"Wait here, let me see what I can do." Fu Huaijin seemed not to hear him, turned around and walked towards the kitchen. He went in, looked around, and came out a moment later.
Apart from the tableware used during the renovation, the refrigerator was completely empty.
He went outside for a walk, and soon a group of people came in and started packing up their things.
They ignored Su Yuxi's attempts to drive them away and went about their own business.
Fu Huaijin had fresh ingredients bought and then stayed in the kitchen, leaving Su Yuxi speechless. Furious, Su Yuxi turned around and went back to her room to sleep.
As a result, after lying down for half an hour, she happily got up again because the aroma wafting from the kitchen really suited her taste.
Fu Huaijin was simmering chicken soup when he turned around and saw Su Yuxi staring at the soup with a worried look through the small kitchen window.
