After leaving the Lu family and heading back to the compound, Zhai Yumo tilted his head to look at Yan Xi, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Yan Xi shook her head, "No, I was just thinking about something."
"Hmm..." Zhai Yumo retracted his gaze, looked straight ahead, then stepped on the accelerator and moved forward.
Bitterness flashed in Yan Xi's eyes, and she said unintentionally: "Chao Chao Mu Mu is quite cute..."
"Well, he's pretty good."
"When are we going to have a baby?"
He still used the same excuse as before: "Wait a little longer, I'm really too busy lately."
Yan Xi said in a difficult tone: "I heard that...contraceptive pills should not be taken frequently...it will harm your body."
Zhai Yumo tightened his grip on the steering wheel and said apologetically, "I'm sorry. I will be more careful next time."
The car suddenly fell silent, and the two walked into Zhai's house in silence.
As soon as he stepped into the yard, Zhai Yumo said softly: "You take a rest first, I'll go into the study to deal with a document..."
Seeing him walk straight to the study without even turning his head, Yan Xi suddenly felt an impulse in her heart and blurted out, "You don't want children... Is it really because you are busy?"
Zhai Yumo paused.
She heard footsteps behind her, walked up to him, and slowly stretched out her hand to pull him.
Sensing her intention, Zhai Yumo raised his hand and pushed open the study door.
Looking at her empty hand, Yan Xi's eyes were suddenly filled with tears.
"You don't want children... not because you're busy, nor for any other reason, but because... you don't have me in your heart,"
She followed Zhai Yumo in, walked around in front of him, looked into his eyes and asked, "Is that right?"
Zhai Yumo looked at her exposed emotions, his tone as gentle as ever, but his expression became indifferent.
"Before we got engaged, I told you...I have no intention of having a romantic relationship for the time being..."
Yan Xi closed her eyes and let the tears flow down her cheeks. After a while, she smiled with red eyes: "I have always thought that you are devoted to work, so you are not very keen on love. I think that after marriage, we can cultivate our feelings slowly like my parents did, and there will always be a time for happiness."
Of course there is true love between two people, but she didn't wait for it.
Who made her fall in love with a workaholic?
At that time, she kept thinking that she should sacrifice more.
Her father was a man who only cared about building the country, but between a husband and wife, one of them had to give in. She learned from her mother, thinking that one day she would be able to melt Zhai Yumo's heart.
Who made her like Zhai Yumo so much that she couldn't help herself?
Can...
I saw him chatting with Fu Xiao that day.
It was just a casual chat, but he was laughing so happily.
There were sudden stars in the dark eyes, so bright.
He had never smiled like this in front of her.
"You have Fu Xiao in your heart..."
This sentence is not a question, but a narration.
Seeing that he acquiesced, Yan Xi said in a somewhat collapsed tone: "Yu Mo, she is already married."
Besides, with such a happy family, there is no room for others.
Zhai Yumo's thin lips curled up into a smile, but there was no smile in his aloof eyes, which actually gave people a glimpse of coldness.
He spoke in a cold and indifferent voice: "I am friends with the couple, don't say such nonsense outside."
"I don't want children because I don't want them.... What happened between you and me was agreed upon before we got engaged. It's my own problem and has nothing to do with anyone else."
Yan Xi smiled bitterly, "Just friends?"
She is not a fool.
She loves him.
So she could see that look.
She had witnessed Zhai Yumo's obsession with Fu Xiao more than once. It was clear in his eyes and was unfathomable.
"She is Miss Mu's family. You'd better not make trouble. Most importantly, you have nothing to do with her. Do you understand?"
Yan Xi tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to burst out, her throat dry: "Zhai Yumo, I also admire outstanding people like Fu Xiao... This is clearly your own wishful thinking, why should I pick on her?" She is not a shrew.
Moreover, this wasn't the first time she noticed that if she was looking for trouble, she would have been unable to hold back.
When she first discovered it, she was heartbroken, but she easily accepted the fact in her heart.
After all, Fu Xiao is so outstanding.
She was indeed not as good as expected.
But she also knew that it was impossible for Zhai Yumo and her to be together.
So she pretended not to know, hoping that her husband would win back his heart as soon as possible.
But today, she suddenly couldn't help it.
I feel sorry for myself, and...
I feel sorry for him.
Why can't I forget her?
Why not look at other people.
Let yourself immerse yourself in it, observing other people's happiness almost in a self-masochistic way.
Why make yourself so miserable?
Hearing the self-conceited comments, Zhai Yumo lowered his head, his face looking somewhat gloomy.
Seeing him like this, Yan Xi felt heartbroken. She gritted her teeth and continued, "Fu Xiao and her husband are the most loving couple I have ever seen. They have such a lovely pair of children. Zhai Yumo, there is no room for you to interfere in their relationship..."
Zhai Yumo clenched his hand holding the pen and lowered his head in silence.
After waiting for a long time, he looked up at her and said, "Yan Xi, what I said when we got married... was serious."
"I really want to live a good life with you. Can we talk about the child after this period of time? You should also know that I am really busy."
......
Another month passed.
"hiss...."
