Lu Zhiyuan's explanation sounded innocent, and he seemed to be thinking about me, but I just felt irony in my heart.
I scoffed and asked, "Do you think you can fool me with such a lie? You believed Tang Jun when she said I was in trouble? Don't you know to call me to verify it?"
Lu Zhiyuan was choked by my question.
I sneered, "Besides, we've already divorced. Even if something happens to me, what does it have to do with you?"
Lu Zhiyuan lowered his head in silence. His silence made it impossible for me to guess what he was thinking at this moment.
After a moment, Lu Zhiyuan smiled bitterly and slowly said, "When I first heard Tang Jun say that something happened to you, my first reaction was to worry about you. But you were right. I soon realized that she was lying to me, but I wanted to continue to take it seriously."
He raised his eyes and looked at me, his eyes were gentle and full of affection, "Because only in this way can I see you again."
I was speechless for a moment. Faced with Lu Zhiyuan's deep affection at this moment, there was not the slightest ripple in my heart.
I wasn't sure how much deception there was in what he said.
My marriage with him was full of lies and deception. Although he always said that nothing happened between him and Yuan Yaxin, he never explained everything to me in person.
But now that we are divorced, he acts particularly affectionate in front of me, as if he is the victim, which makes me very dissatisfied.
I slowly exhaled and suppressed the anger in my heart.
In order not to arouse Tang Jun's suspicion, Mingyuan only blocked the numbers of Cai Ya and Tang Tianxiang.
But I never expected that Tang Jun would actually call Lu Zhiyuan.
I tried my best to speak in a calm tone, "Lu Zhiyuan, I'm very grateful for helping me investigate what happened back then, but there's no possibility between us anymore. You don't need to act affectionate in front of me anymore, and I don't have time to reminisce about the past with you."
I saw a flash of disappointment in Lu Zhiyuan's eyes. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I knew you would say that."
I ignored his emotions and warned him in advance: "I have something important to do this time. Since you are already here, I can't let you get off the ship. Just think of these days as a cruise tour. Please don't interfere with other matters."
Lu Zhiyuan didn't refuse me and nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble."
"I hope so."
I responded coldly and tried to leave his room.
Lu Zhiyuan opened the door attentively, stood at the door and said to me, "Let me take you back to your room."
"No thanks." I rejected his kindness and didn't want to get entangled with him.
Lu Zhiyuan lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice, "You didn't let me take you back to your room because you were afraid that Yan Meng would see you and misunderstand you?"
I frowned slightly, not understanding why he always managed to drag Yan Meng into this.
I complained, "Boss Lu is worrying too much."
Lu Zhiyuan was about to say something when my cell phone suddenly rang, making him swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
I took out my cell phone and saw that it was Yan Meng calling.
Lu Zhiyuan obviously saw it as well. His eyes flickered and there was a hint of displeasure on his face.
The next second, he deliberately said in a tone tinged with jealousy, "Do you need me to step aside?"
