Chapter 49 She doesn't love you at all; the person in her heart is me.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yichen's expression changed abruptly, and he said angrily, "This is between us, and it's none of your business to comment."
"us?"
Shi Yuanxing found it amusing and reminded him, "President Shen, Zhizhi is my wife. We are the ones who refer to each other as 'we,' while you are just you."
Shen Yichen's eyes trembled with anger at these words, but he managed to suppress the rage in his heart.
He gave a cold laugh, and leaned closer, slightly reclining, though the distance was only a table between them.
"So what? She doesn't love you at all. The person in her heart is me."
Shi Yuanxing's breath hitched, his gaze deep and silent.
"She fell in love with me at first sight when we first met five years ago."
Shi Yuanxing's expression remained unchanged, but his hand under the table twitched almost imperceptibly.
"When I was at my lowest point, even when I had nothing, she willingly stayed by my side, never abandoning me, and lovingly caring for me in every way..."
Shen Yichen recounted all the good things Qin Shuzhi had done for him, and finally looked at Shi Yuanxing with a mocking expression, "I dated Xiaozhi for three years... no, I had a five-year relationship with her, five years. What do you have to compare with me?"
What are you to her?
Shi Yuanxing's hands were clenched tightly under the table. He stared at Shen Yichen in silence for a long time before slowly loosening his fists. But the words that came out were like heavy blows:
"So you knew she was so good to you? Shen Yichen, have you lost your conscience? How could you bear to betray her and hurt her?"
With a "boom," Shen Yichen, who was swaggering just a second ago, had his smugness shattered by the three barrage of questions, and his expression instantly froze.
Ever since he learned that Qin Shuzhi had suffered such injustice and hurt on her birthday, this matter has been like a boulder weighing on Shen Yichen's heart. Every time he thinks about it, he feels so uncomfortable that he can hardly breathe.
His heart was especially uneasy when he learned that the person who had helped her that night, accompanied her to the hospital and reported the case, was Shi Yuanxing.
So much so that when faced with Shi Yuanxing's questioning, he was too guilty to utter a single word.
Whether she loves me or not is another matter.
Shi Yuanxing watched the changing expressions on his face, "But Shen Yichen, you are not worthy of her love, much less deserving of her love."
Shen Yichen's heart clenched painfully.
Say it again.
Under his angry glare, the man opposite him slowly stood up.
"I'll speak." Shi Yuanxing's deep, cold black eyes stared directly at him as he spoke, each word distinct and deliberate:
"You clearly had the upper hand and won her sincere love, but you didn't hold on to it, nor did you love her or treat her well. Now that you've lost her, you deserve it!"
These words were like a sharp sword piercing his heart. Shen Yichen's tall figure swayed abruptly. In a panic, he took two steps back, and after a long while, he shook his head repeatedly.
"No, I won't lose her. She only married you out of spite... Sooner or later, she'll come back to me."
He said this as if he were speaking to Shi Yuanxing, but also as if he were speaking to himself.
After saying that, he glared angrily at Shi Yuanxing and turned to leave.
"Shen Yichen".
Shi Yuanxing called out to him.
Only after the person in front stopped and turned around did he say in a deep voice, "Zhizhi is now a member of the Shi family, my wife Shi Yuanxing, and no one else can covet her."
Shen Yichen clenched his fists at his sides and pressed his lips into a thin line.
"Therefore, I advise President Shen not to have any improper thoughts."
Shi Yuanxing's voice was slow, but carried a strong warning.
Suppressing his anger, Shen Yichen suddenly smiled, took two steps back, and stared intently at Shi Yuanxing.
"I remember Mr. Shi just said that relationships are equal and everyone has the right to say it's over."
Shi Yuanxing narrowed his eyes. "What are you trying to say?"
"If Xiaozhi took the initiative to leave, Mr. Shi, I don't think you can force her to stay in your spouse column."
Xiao Zhi was just confused for a moment; she will come back to him sooner or later.
"If Zhizhi wants a divorce, I will of course respect her wishes."
After Shi Yuanxing finished speaking, he glanced at him disdainfully, "But I know she will never turn back, so don't be delusional."
His wife is a decisive and principled person.
Shen Yichen said coldly, "We'll see."
After saying that, he turned and left.
As the door slowly closed, the meeting room fell into a deathly silence, and Shi Yuanxing's expression turned somber, no longer concealing his sadness.
Shen Yichen's words, "She doesn't love you at all," pierced his heart deeply.
really.
Although she thought he was a good husband, she didn't love him.
Although I know she will never look back at Shen Yichen, it is also a fact that she doesn't love me.

In the parking lot, Shen Yichen sat in his car to calm himself down. A brand-new white sedan drove past in the aisle in front of him and finally reversed into the parking space diagonally opposite him.
Shen Yichen glanced at it twice, not paying much attention at first, until the driver's side door of the white car opened and a familiar figure stepped out.
His pupils suddenly dilated as he watched Qin Shuzhi carry a food box, then close the door, lock the car, glance at the sign, and head towards the elevator next to her.
Is she... going to deliver lunch to Shi Yuanxing?
Shen Yichen watched her figure, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly.
The phone on the central control panel rang with an annoying ringtone. Shen Yichen glanced at it and saw that it was Zhou Siyan calling. His impatience deepened.
The ringing was so annoying, he finally answered it, but his tone was cold, "What is it?"
"Yichen, I delivered food to your company. Are you coming back to eat later?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yichen's anger was immediately drawn out. "I won't eat. Don't bring me food again."
After he finished speaking, he smashed his phone onto the center console.
He then stared intently in the direction Qin Shuzhi had left, his expression dark.

In the office.
Qin Shuzhi laid out the food on the table in front of the sofa. Shi Yuanxing glanced at it; it was a single serving. "Have you already eaten?"
"Yes, there's still some pumpkin porridge left over from this morning. I'll eat the porridge and then come over."
After Qin Shuzhi finished speaking, she handed him the chopsticks, saying, "Eat it while it's hot."
Shi Yuanxing took the chopsticks. "How can we just eat porridge? Let's eat something else together."
Qin Shuzhi shook her head, "I ate some porridge and an egg, I'm very full now. You can eat."
"All right."
Shi Yuanxing smiled and then silently began to eat.
Qin Shuzhi looked at him and inexplicably felt that something was wrong with his emotions.
"Were you busy at work this morning? Are you feeling unwell anywhere, or are you dizzy?" she asked with concern.
"I'm not busy. I had a meeting as soon as I got back, and the process went smoothly. I haven't felt unwell, and I haven't felt dizzy at all."
Shi Yuanxing patiently and meticulously responded to each of his questions.
"Your work and health are both fine, so why do you seem a little down?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuanxing's hand, which was holding a chopstick, suddenly paused. He turned to look at her and asked, "Did I...?"
"Um."
Qin Shuzhi deliberately moved closer, scrutinizing his expression. "You seem downcast."
Shi Yuanxing's heart skipped a beat.
He admitted that his mood was affected by Shen Yichen's words, "She doesn't love you at all."
But... was he making it that obvious?
Qin Shuzhi observed his expression, "Did something unpleasant happen?"
Shi Yuanxing put down his chopsticks and told her frankly, "Shen Yichen was just here."
"What?"
Qin Shuzhi suddenly stood up, angrily asking, "He's causing you trouble again?"
