Chapter 24 No Explanation
Her voice was rather cold, and suddenly it sounded strange and out of place in the quiet bedroom.
Jiang Yu and Li Mingzhu were both startled and turned to look at Shen Qinghuan, who was standing at the door with his arms folded across his chest.
Jiang Yu became anxious and pushed Li Mingzhu away.
Li Mingzhu obviously didn't expect that Jiang Yu would push her away without hesitation the moment he saw Shen Qinghuan.
Her eyes went dark and she couldn't help but stagger, looking a little embarrassed.
Shi Beichuan, who was sleeping on the sofa, woke up belatedly.
When his eyes swept across the door, he was so startled that he almost fell off the sofa. Shen Qinghuan? Why did she come back in the middle of the night? Shouldn't she be staying at Li Meng's house?
Shi Beichuan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Yu lying on the bed. This matter tonight seemed to be quite tricky!
One is the unforgettable white moonlight, the other is the wife married in a formal ceremony. It's so difficult! There is no way to make a choice. But we are all adults. If it really doesn't work, just ask if we can live in peace?
Shen Qinghuan leaned against the door frame, sighed helplessly, and said, "What can I say to you guys? Jiang Yu, there are so many high-end hotels out there, and you're not short of money, so how can you bring someone home?"
Seeing that he was being misunderstood, Jiang Yu's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, and his voice became cold.
"Shen Qinghuan! Stop putting the blame on me! I didn't do that!"
"You didn't?" Shen Qinghuan raised an eyebrow. "Then what did I see just now? Could it be that I was hallucinating? Tsk tsk! Jiang Yu, what can I say about you? You weren't like this before. You used to be brave enough to take responsibility for your actions. Why is it that when it comes to Miss Li..."
Suddenly thinking of something, she deliberately said "Oh" meaningfully and chuckled with her hand covering her mouth.
"I see!"
"After all, Miss Li is several years older than you. How can her skin and figure compare to those young girls in their early twenties? If it were me, I would make the same choice as you!"
Shi Beichuan's mouth twitched fiercely, and he tried hard to suppress his laughter.
What this girl said makes sense! Which man would choose an older and difficult woman over a young and sensible girl?
After listening to Shen Qinghuan's words, Li Mingzhu felt like vomiting.
Can't be angry! Can't be angry! She desperately told herself in her heart, and forced a smile, "Huanhuan, you misunderstood! Ah Yu and I...we have nothing! Even if you don't believe me, you should believe Ah Yu. Since Ah Yu married you, he won't let you down!"
Jiang Yu said nothing, just sat quietly on the bed, looking listlessly at Shen Qinghuan who was standing at the door.
Shen Qinghuan was not looking at the chattering Li Mingzhu, she was looking at Jiang Yu.
She wondered why Jiang Yu didn't just defend himself or explain things to her. If he was willing to explain things to her, she would definitely believe him. But he seemed to think she didn't deserve his explanation.
"Well, Qinghuan, what happened tonight was really a misunderstanding. I was the one who called Ayu out for a drink! Wasn't I depressed? But I didn't expect Ayu to be even more depressed than me. After he went in, he just kept drinking and got drunk. Sister Mingzhu and I were worried about his safety. You know, if a drunk person is left unattended, he is likely to suffocate. So, we took the initiative to stay and take care of him..."
Shi Beichuan said this and laughed again.
He felt that if he didn't speak up, Jiang Yu would never let him go. When he thought of Jiang Yu's methods of tormenting people, his scalp tingled.
After a short pause, Shi Beichuan continued, "It's better to have two people taking care of it than one person. If anything happens, we can discuss it with each other."
"Discuss?" Shen Qinghuan smiled, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly. "What do you need to discuss? Shi Beichuan, you are deliberately taking revenge on me! I know you must be deliberately taking revenge on me."
"However, I am a magnanimous person, and I will not argue with you. But this is my home. If you take irrelevant people away from here, I, Shen Qinghuan, promise that what happened tonight will be as if it never happened."
As for what "what happened tonight" refers to, only Shen Qinghuan and Shi Beichuan know.
Facing Shen Qinghuan's silent threat, Shi Beichuan gritted his teeth, forced a stiff smile on his suave face, and said to Li Mingzhu: "Sister Mingzhu, the real owner is back, it's time for us to go."
Li Mingzhu became more and more disgusted with Shen Qinghuan.
She had never imagined that the little girl who looked well-behaved, sensible, timid and weak could actually have such a sharp tongue! She had misjudged her before, thinking that this little girl was easy to control.
Hiding the trace of disgust deep in her eyes, Li Mingzhu forced a smile. The red at the corners of her eyes made anyone who saw her think she had suffered a great injustice. She said, "Huanhuan, I'm sorry! I didn't know you hated me so much. I, I'm leaving now. It's just that Ah Yu drank quite a bit tonight, so please be more careful when taking care of him."
"By the way, if you don't mind, make him a bowl of hangover soup."
It was the middle of the night, and Shen Qinghuan didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so she let Li Mingzhu continue her "performance."
Seeing that Shen Qinghuan didn't respond, Li Mingzhu was so angry that her chest felt stuffy, but she didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that she would not be able to control herself and hit her.
After calming herself down, Li Mingzhu had no choice but to continue acting.
She turned to look at Jiang Yu and said softly, "Ayu, take good care of yourself and don't quarrel with Huanhuan."
Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes and said "hmm" expressionlessly.
Finally, Li Mingzhu turned her head to look at Shi Beichuan again. Her eyes were still gentle, but with a hint of unspeakable pain. "Beichuan, I'm really sorry that I have to trouble you to take me home in the middle of the night."
Shi Beichuan waved his hands quickly, with a forced smile, "These are all trivial matters. If there is nothing else, shall we leave now?"
Li Mingzhu nodded.
No matter how unhappy she was, she knew she couldn't stay any longer.
When she reached the door, Li Mingzhu suddenly stopped. She paused for a moment, turned her head and looked at Shen Qinghuan, whose face was cold and gloomy. Her voice was soft and timid: "Huanhuan, we will leave soon. Don't be angry with Ayu. If you want to blame someone, blame me. It was me who insisted on staying to take care of him. It has nothing to do with him."
