Chapter 74 Turning the tables!
Lin Xiyin picked up her phone, saw Chi Tianlin's message, thought for a moment, and then replied: I know.
Upon seeing this, Chi Tianlin didn't have time to type and immediately called her.
Lin Xiyin glanced at Pei Muye subconsciously, then got up and walked out.
Pei Muye called to her, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to answer a phone call."
"What call do you need to go outside to answer?" Pei Muyi frowned. "Didn't you just answer it?"
Lin Xiyin said, "I also have my own privacy. Besides, haven't you taken many phone calls behind my back before?"
After saying that, Lin Xiyin left the ward.
Even after all this time, Chi Tianlin hasn't hung up; he's quite patient.
Lin Xiyin answered the call, and the person on the other end immediately asked, "Why did it take you so long to answer? What were you doing?"
Lin Xiyin said, "I'm in the hospital."
"The hospital? What happened to you?" Chi Tianlin immediately realized, "You were with Pei Muye?"
"Yes," Lin Xiyin said, "He has a broken bone."
“I understand,” Chi Tianlin said. “Did he tell you how he broke his bone?”
Lin Xiyin didn't know whether she should tell the truth.
The main reason is that she doesn't want to get involved between these two men.
She said, "If you want to know, ask him yourself. Don't ask me, I don't know."
"Given our relationship, why would I call him?" Chi Tianlin scoffed. "When he died, I was barely able to attend his memorial service."
"If you don't have anything else, I'm hanging up."
"Wait a minute!" Chi Tianlin asked curiously, "What are you doing at the hospital? Are you just keeping an eye on someone?"
Lin Xiyin fell silent.
Chi Tianlin never expected that the most outrageous answer he had casually given would actually be the truth.
He was instantly enraged: "Lin Xiyin, you said you had no feelings for Pei Muyi anymore, but as soon as you heard he was sick, you rushed over there. How could you be so worthless!"
Lin Xiyin wanted to explain.
Before I could even speak.
Chi Tianlin then said, "I don't have a friend as worthless as you!"
Huh?
Or should we take this opportunity to break off our friendship with Chi Tianlin?
Lin Xiyin carefully considered her words before speaking: "No matter what, he is still the father of my child, and I can't just turn a blind eye to it."
"You're getting a divorce, and you're still worrying about so much! Lin Xiyin, can't you have some self-respect?!"
"I'm sorry, I probably can't do that."
Chi Tianlin was furious: "Lin Xiyin!"
Lin Xiyin hung up the phone immediately.
She figured that Chi Tianlin probably hadn't been hung up on by anyone.
He was so audacious and spineless; Chi Tianlin would definitely never be friends with him again.
Let's just leave it at that.
There didn't seem to be any reason why the two of them had to be friends.
He was a powerful and influential CEO with immense wealth, who acted recklessly and arbitrarily.
She is just an ordinary person.
We won't have any further contact in the future.
fine.
She returned to the ward, and Pei Muye's gaze remained fixed on her.
After she sat down, he said, "Let's talk."
Lin Xiyin asked him, "What do you want to talk about?"
Pei Muye said, "You just said that I used to take phone calls behind your back. Let's make this clear."
Lin Xiyin looked at him strangely; "What's there to say about this?"
“I’ve thought about it,” Pei Muye said. “My phone calls are mostly work calls. There’s nothing on my phone that I can’t tell anyone.”
Lin Xiyin almost laughed: "What...do you mean by all this?"
"What I mean is that couples should at least be honest with each other."
"You're telling me this?" Lin Xiyin could hardly believe her ears. "You think I haven't been honest with you?"
"Then why did you go outside to answer the phone?"
Lin Xiyin was so angry that her brain short-circuited for a moment.
She snapped out of her reverie and asked, "You said you only answered work calls, who can prove that? Is there nothing you can't say? Yes, you, President Pei, do whatever you want, without any fear."
"What are you being sarcastic about?" Pei Muye's gaze deepened. "I'm just stating the facts!"
“Pei Muyi, there’s no point in saying all this now,” Lin Xiyin said. “Who I answered the call from, and why I went out to answer it, is none of your business.”
"Was it Chi Tianlin?" Pei Muye's patience wore thin, and he asked her directly, "Was it him who just called?"
"Yes." Lin Xiyin looked directly into his eyes: "So, what's the problem?"
"I told you, his approach to you must have ill intentions. Why are you still associating with him?"
Lin Xiyin suddenly felt very tired.
She and Pei Muye are getting a divorce, so why are they discussing these nonsensical questions here?
She said, "We're not in contact anymore, and we won't have any contact in the future."
Pei Muye was taken aback.
Clearly, he hadn't expected Lin Xiyin's attitude to change so suddenly.
Mingming used to argue her point.
"real?"
“Pei Muye, even if we are not divorced now, we will be strangers in the future. Who I associate with and who I befriend has nothing to do with you.”
“Stranger?” Pei Muye looked at her intently. “Even if we get divorced, we can’t be strangers.”
Lin Xiyin sat on the sofa, avoiding his gaze, and remained silent.
"Lin Xiyin".
Lin Xiyin said, "You should rest."
This means I don't want to communicate with him anymore.
Pei Muye threw off the covers and was about to get out of bed.
This time, Lin Xiyin did not stop him.
He walked up to Lin Xiyin and looked down at her.
"What exactly do you want?" Lin Xiyin stared blankly at a spot in front of her. "Pei Muye, please don't go on like this. I'm so tired, really. Please, I'm begging you, let me go, okay?"
"Does our marriage cause you so much pain?" Pei Muye's voice grew lower and lower: "Even after having a child, you still can't wait to escape."
"Is it my fault that all of this happened?" Lin Xiyin's eyes suddenly reddened: "I've been married to you for three years, Pei Muye, I've really had enough!"
"Have you had enough? For the past three years, have you been forcing yourself to endure this? Back then, you didn't really want to marry me, did you?"
Lin Xiyin finally looked at the tall man in front of her through her blurry, tear-filled eyes.
How could it not be genuine?
She lost her heart at first sight back then.
After meeting Pei Muye several more times by chance, she became even more enamored with him.
Yes, upon first seeing his good looks, it's fair to say she was attracted to him at first sight.
But she eventually gave herself completely because she saw Pei Muye's composure, responsibility, and... kindness.
She thought that the man she liked was someone she could never reach in her lifetime.
Unexpectedly, a single sentence from the Pei family patriarch made her dream come true.
How could it not be genuine?
She offered her whole heart, but no one cherished it; instead, it was trampled underfoot and smashed to pieces.
I don't know when it started, but Lin Xiyin had a complete awakening.
She didn't want to live that kind of life anymore.
She wanted to start over and stop sinking deeper into despair.
Therefore, the only option is to leave Pei Muye.
Stay far away from this man, and from now on, never see him again.
Now, Pei Muyi is questioning her sincerity.
How ridiculous.
A man who had cheated on her actually came to question her.
She smiled and said, "Yes, I shouldn't have married you back then."
"If you don't marry me, who do you want to marry?" Pei Muye suddenly bent down and grabbed her shoulders: "Tang Yishen?"
Lin Xiyin looked at him in disbelief: "What are you talking about?"
"Did I say something wrong?" Pei Muyi's gaze was intense: "Lin Xiyin, you are my wife now, you... are mine!"
After he finished speaking, without looking at Lin Xiyin's astonished and even terrified gaze, he lowered his head and kissed her fiercely.
Lin Xiyin was completely stunned for a moment.
Why did Pei Muye mention Tang Yishen?
Wait, how would Pei Muye know about Tang Yishen's existence?
She and Tang Yishen had no contact since they got married.
She met him through her professor after she decided to pursue a doctorate, and that's when they started contacting each other.
However, her interactions with Tang Yishen were purely platonic and remained within the bounds of propriety; they were simply ordinary friends.
She admitted that before Tang Yishen confessed his feelings, she had always regarded this gentle and kind senior as an older brother.
After Tang Yishen confessed his feelings, she quickly rejected him.
Let alone in a marriage, she would never do anything that goes against her conscience or morality.
Even if she's not married, if she doesn't like someone, she would never string them along.
But what did Pei Muye mean by that?
Lin Xiyin could barely breathe.
She then realized what was happening and almost immediately began to push Pei Muye away with both hands and feet.
But the man's tall body was like a mountain, pressing her down on the sofa and making her unable to move.
His kiss was passionate and urgent, rough and domineering.
Lin Xiyin not only felt like she was suffocating, but also felt pain all over her body.
My tongue hurts, my mouth hurts, and my chin, which he's gripping so tightly, hurts too.
She struggled even harder, even trying to bite his tongue.
But Pei Muye held her chin tightly, forcing her to open her mouth and endure his intrusion.
She could even feel the saliva dripping from the corner of her mouth, which the man licked away before kissing her even more deeply.
Lin Xiyin felt a chill run down her spine, and felt utterly humiliated.
In terms of strength, she was never a match for a man.
In the end, she lost all her strength and was pinned down by the man, motionless.
She was pregnant, so no matter how beastly Pei Muye was, he couldn't possibly do anything to her.
She just pretended... she'd been bitten by a dog!
But the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
She stopped moving, and Pei Muye's kiss seemed to become more lingering.
Taking advantage of his moment of vulnerability, Lin Xiyin used all her strength to push him in the chest.
The man groaned, finally pulling away from her lips, but buried his head in her neck and remained still.
Lin Xiyin suddenly remembered that he had broken his bone!
She pushed him so hard, and right on his chest, wouldn't that...?
She panicked slightly, and finally managed to speak: "Pei Muye! Get up! How are your ribs?"
The man didn't move, but his lips brushed against her neck.
Lin Xiyin felt both itchy and numb, and wanted to push him away, but dared not make a move.
Pei Muye finally spoke: "It hurts so much, Lin Xiyin. How could you be so cruel? I have a broken rib, and you're still being so violent towards me. I feel like the fracture has gotten worse. You have to take responsibility for me."
Lin Xiyin: ...
A moment of silence!
What is he saying?
This is distorting the truth and spouting nonsense!
He was the one who forcibly kissed her, yet he still tries to shift the blame!
