Chapter 8 Loving the Wrong Person
The sound of a car came from the courtyard.
Fu Siyan is back.
Shen Qingshu held the pregnancy test and opened the bathroom door.
Fu Siyu's excited voice came from downstairs.
"dad!"
Shen Qingshu walked down the stairs step by step.
Fu Siyu stood on the sofa and opened his arms to Fu Siyu, "Daddy, hug me!"
Fu Siyan bent down and picked up Fu Siyu.
Shen Qingshu noticed that Fu Siyan had changed his clothes.
Then, thinking back to those three unanswered phone calls...
The cruel truth is about to be revealed.
Shen Qingshu stopped on the last step, her knuckles white as she held the pregnancy test.
Fu Siyu wrapped his arms around Fu Siyan's neck and looked at Shen Qingshu: "Mom, Dad is taking me out to play, do you want to come along?"
Shen Qingshu glanced at Fu Siyu, then turned her gaze to Fu Siyan's face.
Fu Siyan wasn't wearing his glasses today, and his deep-set eyes showed no emotion whatsoever.
He finally turned his gaze to her, his expression as cold as ever.
"Thank you for your hard work these past few days. I'll be in Beicheng for a while, and I'll take care of Siyu."
His voice was deep and pleasant to the ear, but every word he uttered conveyed a sense of detachment.
His distance from her.
As Shen Qingshu listened, she gently curved her lips into a smile, her eyes welling up with tears.
She found it ironic.
I felt ironic about the joy that welled up inside me when I saw the results in the bathroom.
Fu Siyu grew anxious as Shen Qingshu remained silent for a long time.
He hadn't forgotten that Shen Qingshu had said she had to go out to run errands at the coffee shop. The reason he asked her that question just now was because he was certain that Shen Qingshu wouldn't agree.
But what if Shen Qingshu agrees?
He's going to find his mom with his dad!
"Mom?" Fu Siyu called out tentatively.
Shen Qingshu turned her gaze and met Fu Siyu's slightly anxious eyes.
Her mind was in turmoil, and she didn't have time to delve into the emotions in Fu Siyu's eyes at that moment. She simply said, "Mom isn't going. You and Dad have fun."
She knew that Fu Siyan was most likely going to take Fu Siyu to find Zhou Yuchu, but she suddenly felt indifferent and didn't want to care anymore.
Fu Siyu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then Mom, you should rest well at home." Fu Siyu said, then looked at Fu Siyan and said impatiently, "Dad, let's go!"
Fu Siyan responded indifferently, picked up Fu Siyu and turned around. As he passed the coffee table, he caught a glimpse of the divorce agreement out of the corner of his eye.
However, the word "divorce" on the agreement was covered by Fu Siyu's toys.
Fu Siyan paused in his steps.
Shen Qingshu had been watching Fu Siyan the whole time, so when his gaze fell on the divorce agreement, her breath hitched.
Although she knew Fu Siyan would file for divorce, she never imagined that the divorce agreement would be handed to her by Fu Siyan's mistress and Fu Siyu's biological mother.
Before today, Shen Qingshu thought that even if there was no love between her and Fu Siyan, they were still a respectful and courteous couple.
Little did she know that this marriage, which she was so grateful for and deeply devoted to, would come to an end only to reveal that... it was all a carefully orchestrated deception by Fu Siyan for his beloved.
To protect his beloved, Fu Siyan risked his own marriage, creating a prison called marriage specifically for her. He trapped her in this prison, watching her willingly give her heart and soul to the child he had with his beloved, like a clown.
Five years! Did Fu Siyan not feel guilty for even a moment?
Shen Qingshu recalled the scene when Zhou Yu first gave her the agreement, and felt both angry and pained.
At this moment, Fu Siyan was staring down at the agreement.
He frowned slightly, about to reach out and take it.
Shen Qingshu finally couldn't hold back any longer and stepped towards Fu Siyan.
She almost broke the pregnancy test stick in her hand.
The pent-up emotions of the past few days reached their peak at this moment.
“Fu Siyan…”
"Dad, hurry up and go!"
Fu Siyu's urging interrupted Shen Qingshu's words and also dispelled Fu Siyan's idea of finding out the truth.
He smiled slightly. "Okay, I'll be going now."
After saying that, she picked up Fu Siyu and left.
From beginning to end, Fu Siyan did not look at Shen Qingshu once.
Until the sounds of cars outside gradually faded into the distance.
Shen Qingshu's stiff body lost its strength, and she slowly squatted down, supporting herself on the back of the sofa.
She lowered her head, and the two clear red lines in her vision became increasingly blurry.
Hot tears fell, landing on the red line.
Fu Siyan could tell from just one glance that she was holding a pregnancy test.
Unfortunately, his gaze, like his heart, never lingered on her.
Shen Qingshu squatted on the ground, tears streaming down her face. The huge Nanxi Mansion was empty, with only her suppressed sobs echoing for a long time.

Half an hour later, she sent a picture to her friend via WeChat.
Best friend: [This is highly accurate. Come for a checkup tomorrow on an empty stomach.]
Shen Qingshu: [I want to book an abortion appointment directly.]
Best friend: 【!!!】
The next second, my friend called me.
Shen Qingshu has calmed down and is now packing her luggage.
Seeing the 'star' icon on the caller ID, she put down the clothes she was folding, picked up her phone, and pressed the answer button.
"Does Fu Siyan know?" Qiao Xingjia asked seriously on the other end of the phone. "You need to think this through. This is your first child."
“He doesn’t know.” Shen Qingshu’s voice was very soft. “We’re getting a divorce. He has Fu Siyu. He won’t care about this unexpected life.”
Qiao Xingjia was speechless for a moment after hearing this.
Qiao Xingjia was aware of Shen Qingshu and Fu Siyan's marriage.
"Although I didn't think you and Fu Siyan would last, I've seen that you get along well with them over the past five years. I even thought you would live like this for the rest of your lives. Who would have thought... Sigh! You know how it feels? It's like I'm seriously watching a TV series, and then it suddenly has a terrible ending!"
Shen Qingshu blinked her sore eyes.
She couldn't explain everything to Qiao Xingjia in detail; if anyone was to blame, it was her own inability to control her heart and her love for the wrong person.
"I'll come to see you tomorrow," Shen Qingshu said firmly.
Qiao Xingjia sighed with heartache, "It can't be done tomorrow. We need to do some tests first. Let's talk about it when you get here."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Qingshu put down her phone and continued packing her luggage.
Although Fu Siyan gave her the Nanxi Mansion, she didn't plan to continue living there.
She knew that Fu Siyan probably didn't care about the house, so she planned to sell it after the divorce.
After all, it's a house I've lived in for five years, so I have quite a few household items.
Shen Qingshu only packed some everyday clothes and bags to take with her. Fu Siyan could do whatever he wanted with the rest. If Fu Siyan was too lazy to deal with them, they could be disposed of when the house was sold.
After packing her luggage, Shen Qingshu signed the divorce agreement and placed it on the most conspicuous coffee table.
After leaving Nanxi Mansion, Shen Qingshu pushed two suitcases, closed the door, and left without looking back.
