Chapter 49: Let's sleep separately for a while, my love.
While Lin Yiran was still in a daze, Chen Si walked in wearing a bathrobe.
He walked over discreetly, wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, and the familiar scent of her bath lingered between them. His voice was low and sensual: "I'm done showering. What do you want to tell me?"
After saying that, he restlessly nibbled at her earlobe, "Hmm? Wife?"
Lin Yiran felt a little flustered as he held her, but she forced herself to remain calm and turned to ask, "Where's Chen Miao?"
I didn't see anyone when I went home, and they haven't come back yet.
She was a little worried.
Chen Si took a step back, somewhat annoyed, and casually tugged at his bathrobe, saying, "Oh, she went back to her hometown."
After saying this, Chen Si turned around and gave her a deep look.
Lin Yiran understood, so she remained silent.
Chen Si pressed on, asking, "What do you want to tell me? Hmm?"
"Let's sleep separately for a while."
After Lin Yiran finished speaking, she stepped out of the study. She felt that this was a good opportunity, a good opportunity for her to deal with the past and think about the present.
She needs to sort these things out.
Chen Si was completely stunned and stood frozen in place until the door slammed shut, bringing him back to his senses. Wait, he had just eaten meat.
His wife wants to sleep in a separate bed!
?
?
.
Lin Yiran's decisions were final, and Chen Sihui witnessed her resolve, not being intimate with his wife for several whole days.
Chen Si sat in his office chair, feeling depressed and puzzled. Could it be that he really hurt her that day?
But judging from the final sheets, she seemed quite comfortable...
The more he thought about it, the worse it got. Helpless, Chen Si lowered his head and pressed his temples. He couldn't think about it anymore; if he did, he would go crazy.
While he was still in a daze, Jiang Bin tapped his desk with a pen.
"Brother, has your soul taken flight these past few days?"
Chen Si snapped out of his daze, leaned back lazily, and softly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Duan Jibai is coming back today!"
Jiang Bin spoke with excitement.
"oh."
"No? What's wrong with you lately?"
"And what do you mean he got dumped? Holy crap! I asked him and he didn't answer, I asked you and you won't tell me, are we still good buddies?"
Chen Si smiled upon hearing this and slowly said, "A single dog like you wouldn't understand."
Jiang Bin: "..."
Haha, it's just a marriage.
He even felt a sense of pride in turning his life around and making his family famous, but after thinking about it, Jiang Bin realized he couldn't convince himself.
Marrying Lin Yiran is indeed something to be proud of.
"So you're not going to pick him up this afternoon?"
"I'm not going."
This morning, when Lin Yiran went to work, she told him that she would be going shopping with Yang Changyun tonight and asked him not to wait too long.
He certainly didn't plan to wait too long; he planned to drive them after get off work.
He refused to believe that the two of them would sleep in separate beds tonight.
Chen Si turned on his phone and casually explained things to Duan Jibai.
Which is more important, your brothers or your wife?
Without even thinking, of course my wife is more important.
Duan Jibai didn't reply immediately, and Chen Si also put down his phone without a hurry, lying back in his office chair and pretending to doze off.
Jiang Bin, who was being ignored, was speechless. It's just a marriage? He's dreaming!
Then the office door slammed shut.
.
Lin Yiran had been feeling uneasy for the past few days, and she had blocked that text message.
The excuse that his great-uncle was sick is just that—an excuse. He just wants money.
Wouldn't it be better to be more honest?
Lin Yiran put down her textbook with a wry smile. Would she help them if she were honest?
Won't.
From the day they betrayed her, she knew she no longer had parents.
200,000 yuan may not buy a house to settle down in, but it is enough to secure her future.
Lin Yiran hesitated again and again but still couldn't make up her mind to tell Chen Sihui. She was in agony every moment, from the meals he cooked for her to the candy he gave her after she drank her Chinese medicine, to his daily reminders about what to wear...
The better he treated her, the more hesitant she became.
She didn't want to drag him down with her.
She was afraid her parents would find out about him, because given their personalities, they would definitely try to extort a large sum of money from him.
Thinking of this, Lin Yiran smiled helplessly. How could it be just a penny?
They might cling to Chen Sihui like a tree for the rest of their lives.
Why does she have parents like that?
Countless nights she questioned the heavens, but it was clearly a question destined to remain unanswered.
"What's wrong lately? Are you in a bad mood?"
Zheng Jie brought in hot water from outside and asked Lin Yiran, who looked helpless and bewildered.
Lin Yiran turned to look into Zheng Jie's eyes and chuckled softly, "They contacted me."
Zheng Jie paused, holding the water glass, and after a moment, her fingers slowly tightened without her saying a word.
Both of them remained silent.
Lin Yiran didn't need to explain who they were; judging from her expression, Zheng Jie could almost certainly tell that they were her parents.
"Godmother, there's one thing I always regret."
"What?"
"I think my grandma died too young."
After Lin Yiran finished speaking, the office, which only had two people, fell into a deathly silence.
Lin Yiran was only in fifth grade when her grandmother passed away. She was too young to understand what it meant.
Watching large crowds walk past him, he knelt down and kowtowed before the black-and-white photograph in the courtyard.
Lin Yiran couldn't recall any of her past emotions when she tried to remember them. As a young child, she had no idea that it was more than just the passing of a loved one.
It was also the disappearance of her loved ones who loved her most in the world.
Later, Lin Yiran walked alone for a long time, from a primary school in the village with only 19 students to a law university with 40 students in her class.
But things didn't go as planned; her grandmother had already passed away.
No one would pinch her hand when she was frightened.
No one buys her favorite snacks anymore.
No one will stand by her side without hesitation anymore.
Lin Yiran let out a laugh and a cry, and a clear tear fell unexpectedly, hitting the ground heavily and striking the hearts of the two people.
She said softly, "I never even dreamed what it would look like if her hair turned white."
Her grandmother treated her the best, and it turned out that her parents knew this too. Even when they asked for money again, they used her grandmother's brother as an excuse.
It turns out they also knew that Grandma was the best to them.
so……
They know everything.
They just don't love her.
Lin Yiran even felt that they hated her.
She severed ties with her parents for this reason, and every time she got close to them, it reminded her of it.
They didn't love her; her parents didn't love her at all.
Zheng Jie stepped aside, placed the water glass on the table beside her, turned around, bent down and hugged her, choking back tears, "Godmother loves you, godmother will always love you."
This world is truly absurd, yet the word "love" is truly pure.
Everyone can have it, and everyone can give it.
.
"So, you and he have been sleeping in separate rooms these past few days?" Yang Changyun and Lin Yiran went shopping and found a private restaurant with good online reviews.
The two-person seats on the second floor, by the window, allow you to see the traffic and pedestrians outside.
Lin Yiran took a sip of juice slowly, a smile playing on her lips. "Yes."
"So what do you plan to do about this?"
Yang Changyun asked her nervously, "I can interfere in Lin Yiran's affairs, but sometimes I also understand that I can't interfere too much."
For example, Lin Yiran's love life.
Lin Yiran lowered her head, took a breath, and said softly, "I don't know either."
She didn't know what to do. It was as if fate was playing a joke on her, gathering all the troubles at this moment.
Wait for her to move forward.
But she didn't know whether what lay ahead was dawn or hell, and before she could come to a conclusion through rational thought, Lin Yiran thought she wouldn't take any rash steps.
The woman glanced down at the sparkling ring on her left ring finger, a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth, looking somewhat bewildered.
"Why don't you talk to him? I think Chen Sihui doesn't seem to care about your past."
Yang Changyun put down his chopsticks and offered his earnest advice.
Honesty can at least solve the immediate problem; as for the rest…
Let it be.
Lin Yiran gently shook her head, raised her eyes to look at Yang Changyun as if laughing at her for not understanding, "I care, I am concerned."
So she's backing down; she's afraid to move forward.
Lin Yiran twirled the ring on her right ring finger, finding it somewhat amusing. She never imagined this day would come when she married him.
Contrary to her wishes, things had long since spiraled out of her control.
The spinning diamond pressed against Lin Yiran's palm lines. She chuckled and breathed a sigh of relief. "Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's eat first."
"good."
Lin Yiran had just picked up her chopsticks to pick up some food when a strange male voice came from behind her.
"Hello."
Soon, the sound followed the man's footsteps to their dining table.
The stranger, holding his phone, glanced shyly at Lin Yiran, then picked up his phone and, amidst their surprised looks, asked Lin Yiran softly and politely, "Hello, may I add you on WeChat?"
Lin Yiran paused.
.
"Hold!"
He could clearly see Chen Si sitting in his Mercedes upstairs.
He couldn't help but curse.
The sudden noise woke Duan Jibai, who was dozing in the passenger seat.
Chen Si turned his head, and some of the scattered lights from outside the window shone in. Under the dim light, Duan Jibai moved the blanket off himself, and the light shining up revealed his smooth jawline, and his jade-like skin was particularly prominent in the dim light.
He looked exhausted; his bespoke champagne-colored suit was wrinkled from a long day of work, and his grey shirt with a notched lapel, combined with his cold black eyes, immediately created a sense of distance.
Chen Si looked at him speechlessly and asked, "Why are you looking for me instead of Jiang Bin?"
"I'm here to see my wife, what are you doing here?"
They came but didn't say a word.
Duan Jibai paused for a moment, then echoed him: "I've come to find my future wife."
Chen Si looked bewildered: "What the heck?"
...
After Lin Yiran dismissed the man who wanted her WeChat, she turned around and met Yang Changyun's teasing eyes.
Lin Yiran was wearing a brown wool suit jacket and a matching skirt today, revealing a patch of her fair skin on her neck and shoulders. She looked absolutely stunning.
Sexy yet sophisticated.
The fitted top perfectly accentuated Lin Yiran's stunning figure.
"Please don't smile like that, okay?"
Yang Changyun didn't care about her at all. She was smiling so brightly that she couldn't help but tease her, "What would your husband's reaction be if he knew someone wanted your WeChat?"
"Will he react strongly?"
When the conversation turned to Chen Sihui, Lin Yiran paused and didn't reply for a moment.
However, a familiar voice answered her question. Chen Sihui, wearing a loose coat, walked slowly from behind Lin Yiran and said with a smile, "I guess he will have a big reaction."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stopped beside Lin Yiran.
He looked down, and a familiar scent wafted over him. He chuckled and asked, "What do you think, wife?"
When Duan Jibai stood behind her and his cold eyes met Yang Changyun's, she was so frightened that she shuddered.
hiss.
Why does this person seem so menacing?
Especially his eyes, it felt like he wanted to kill her.
Lin Yiran ignored his joke and glanced at his friend behind him. Chen Sihui understood and introduced him to her: "My childhood friend, Duan Jibai."
"Lin Yiran".
The two shook hands politely.
Duan Jibai took a few steps forward without making a sound and greeted Yang Changyun: "Hello."
Yang Changyun felt a little intimidated when she saw such a highly educated elite. She stood up nervously, reached out her hand and smiled, "Yang Changyun, Lin Yiran's friend."
A glint appeared in Duan Jibai's dark eyes. He reached out and took her hand, adding, "My English name is Dylan."
The name Dylan exploded in Yang Changyun's mind. She felt as if her blood had stopped flowing and she suddenly looked up at him.
Then I met his eyes, which seemed to be smiling but weren't.
Dylan, her online boyfriend is also called...
—Dylan.
