Chapter 2063: Sudden Indifference
Shi Chenyuan's magnanimity and tolerance are only because he knows what to do, and it does not mean that there are no waves in his heart.
When Xiaoyu went to take care of her ex-boyfriend's mother every day, he understood and supported her because he knew that Aunt Yan was like her own aunt to Xiaoyu and had watched her grow up since she was a child.
But whenever he thought about Xiaoyu playing the role of someone else's daughter-in-law, Shi Chenyuan couldn't help but feel jealous.
During those days, his work efficiency dropped significantly, and he was always filled with nameless anger...
"Are you still jealous now?" Cheng Xiaoyu asked with a smile.
Seeing her happy look, Shi Chenyuan hissed, "You are so happy to see me jealous."
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded vigorously and said that he had been so tolerant and not jealous at all a few days ago, and she began to suspect that he didn't care about her anymore.
So it was easy to guess that Shi Chenyuan had made up a lot of lies just because he wanted her to wear the first wedding dress that he had given her.
She felt that this man was too possessive and as childish as a little kid, yet very cute.
Shi Chenyuan rubbed her lips and asked, "Can we continue now?"
Cheng Xiaoyu blushed and nodded.
Shi Chenyuan pushed her knees apart...
…
While Cheng Xiaoyu and Shi Chenyuan were immersed in happiness, Jiang Jingzhi's room was shrouded in a layer of chill.
Jiang Jingzhi leaned against the head of the bed, the lights were off, and there was a half-smoked cigarette in his hand, the scarlet flame flickering in the dimness.
His gaze passed through the smoke and fell on the wall opposite the end of the bed.
Xiaoyu's photo almost took up the entire wall.
However, the girl who had been haunting his dreams for many years suddenly announced her marriage two hours ago.
He contacted her with a glimmer of hope that the news she had made public was not true.
But she admitted it without hesitation.
Jiang Jingzhi felt extremely regretful, regretting that he had not been decisive enough in pursuing Xiaoyu, but gave Shi Chenyuan a chance.
In the past, Xiaoyu liked Yanhao, and Jiang Jingzhi thought that he could not compare with Yanhao. After all, Yanhao was Xiaoyu's childhood sweetheart, which he could not compare with at all.
So when Xiaoyu was about to marry Yanhao, he suppressed his feelings and silently blessed her.
But later Xiaoyu suddenly broke up with Yanhao. This was an opportunity, but Shi Chenyuan got there first and won Xiaoyu's heart.
If he had been by Xiaoyu's side when she was heartbroken, perhaps it would have been him, Jiang Jingzhi, who made the official announcement with her today.
Jiang Jingzhi was not at all willing to lose to Shi Chenyuan.
So he half-jokingly said he was going to steal the bride.
But that was his real thought, he still wanted to take one last chance.
But after talking about the marriage robbery, Xiaoyu never replied to him again.
Only then did he realize that he was too impulsive and might have scared Xiaoyu away. When he wanted to make up for his mistake, he found that he could no longer talk to her because she had blocked all his contact information.
Jiang Jingzhi didn't expect Xiaoyu to be so ruthless.
He hated himself for saying the wrong thing rashly, and felt that Xiaoyu really didn't care about their past friendship and even blocked him directly, which made him feel a little disappointed.
But after throwing the phone aside and thinking calmly for a while, Jiang Jingzhi believed that it was definitely not Xiaoyu who blocked him, and it was probably because of the pressure from Shi Chenyuan.
Even if Xiaoyu knew his feelings, she would not be so ruthless, so it must be Shi Chenyuan.
So Jiang Jingzhi became more determined in his decision. When she and Shi Chenyuan got married, he decided to send a big gift and finally fight for himself.
…
The next morning.
When Cheng Xiaoyu woke up, Shi Chenyuan had already gone to the company and left breakfast for her in the kitchen with a note: "In view of Assistant Cheng's hard work last night, I will give you a day off today. Have a good rest."
Cheng Xiaoyu touched her hot face. Even though Shi Chenyuan was not in front of her, she still felt a little embarrassed.
He was teasing her on purpose because last night, she hadn't put in any effort at all, while Shi Chenyuan had been working diligently...
At eleven o'clock in the morning, Cheng Xiaoyu came to the hospital and went to Aunt Yan's ward.
She didn't come to visit me for the past two days, but she insisted on coming to see me today.
Moreover, she had tried on the Xiuhe dress given by Aunt Yan in the morning and took photos, so she wanted to show it to Aunt Yan in person.
At this time, Aunt Yan was lying on the hospital bed. Compared with the last time Xiaoyu came to see her, she seemed much more haggard and her body became thinner.
When Cheng Xiaoyu saw Aunt Yan's expression, she couldn't help but feel sad, but she held back her tears and showed Aunt Yan the photo of herself trying on the dress.
Aunt Yan looked at the photo, smiled and nodded, "Our Xiaoyu is so beautiful."
"Your clothes are well-cut."
Aunt Yan shook her head slightly, shifted her gaze away from the phone screen, and stopped talking about this topic.
After showing the photos to Aunt Yan, Cheng Xiaoyu felt relieved, but Aunt Yan's reaction was much colder than she expected.
I don’t know if it’s because the disease is progressing rapidly, but Aunt Yan’s health is getting worse and worse, and she no longer has the energy and spirit.
Because Aunt Yan was very keen on talking about her and Yan Hao’s wedding before, but this time after seeing the photo of her wearing Xiuhe clothes, she said nothing and just praised her for being beautiful, as if she was wearing an ordinary dress.
Cheng Xiaoyu sat in the ward for a while. Aunt Yan kept her eyes closed and rested, and hardly said anything to her.
After a while, Aunt Yan ordered her to leave and go back early because she also wanted to sleep for a while.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiaoyu quickly picked up her bag and put on her coat.
When she was leaving, Aunt Yan told her gently and politely not to come to the hospital so frequently in the future. She said that the disease would not kill her in a short time and that there were nurses taking care of her, so she should concentrate on her work and not come to visit so often.
Cheng Xiaoyu had just said that she had time now when Aunt Yan smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, if you come all the time, I'll feel depressed and think I won't live long. Otherwise, why would you accompany me every day? It must be because I'm dying soon."
When Aunt Yan said this, Cheng Xiaoyu hurriedly said that he came to the hospital purely to help and asked Aunt Yan not to think too much.
"The hospital has nurses, and your mother often comes to see me. You young people should just work hard and stop taking time off to come see me in the hospital all the time. I feel bad about it."
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded in agreement, and Aunt Yan closed her eyes again.
After walking out of the room, Cheng Xiaoyu felt something was wrong again.
Aunt Yan didn't seem to welcome her as much as she had a few days ago, and she didn't show any particular relief after seeing the photo of her wearing Xiuhe clothes.
As usual, she wanted to use a towel to wipe Aunt Yan's face and body, but Aunt Yan refused and told her to ask the nurse to come.
In the end, she was even ordered to leave. You should know that Aunt Yan would not take the initiative to drive her away before.
Why did Aunt Yan suddenly become cold towards her?
