It is late autumn.
Riverside villas in the upscale residential area of Nancheng.
As night fell, a cold wind blew, chilling people to the bone.
Ye Xinning stood with her arms crossed, her makeup exquisite, wearing ten-centimeter high heels, her red dress swaying in the breeze.
She leaned against a pillar, looking somewhat languid, her gaze fixed on the people in the courtyard.
The woman walked very slowly, supported by her maid, and moved with extreme care. Upon closer inspection, it was clear that her abdomen was slightly protruding, suggesting that she was pregnant.
Ye Xinning stood there, a faint smile on her lips.
It's irony! It's contempt!
Her laughter was probably a bit too loud, attracting the attention of people in the yard.
The woman looked in her direction, and after seeing clearly, her eyes widened in shock, and her face paled even more than before.
"Miss Ye."
Ye Xinning looked at the woman with a cold gaze, but the smile on his lips remained unchanged.
Are you surprised to see me?
How did you end up here?
Why would she be here? Ye Xinning thought it was a joke.
She didn't answer, her gaze shifting downwards to the woman's protruding belly. "You're pregnant?"
Upon hearing her words, the woman's eyes narrowed, and she hid behind the maid.
Yes, I'm pregnant.
"Is it his?"
"It's his, what do you want?"
Look at how self-righteous they are.
Ye Xinning slowly approached the woman.
The woman said in horror, "He doesn't love you at all. If he did, why would he let me get pregnant?"
Ye Xinning seemed not to have heard her words and continued to approach.
Just then, she heard the sound of a car speeding behind her. She didn't turn around, but she smiled silently to herself.
They arrived really quickly; she hadn't even had time to do anything yet.
She looked down at her toes, her eyes growing even colder.
The footsteps behind her grew closer, and the next second, a long, slender hand with distinct knuckles grasped her fair wrist.
In the dim light of the courtyard, Ye Xinning looked up at the man.
The man wore a black suit, impeccably tailored, with perfect features, sharp angles, deep-set eyes, and unfathomable depths. He exuded a cold and aloof aura.
The man before her was Shen Lin, her legal husband.
Shen Lin gripped her hand tightly, "Who sent you?"
Ye Xinning curled the corner of her lips, "So what if I came?"
Shen Lin frowned, his cold expression even more sinister than before.
Ye Xinning shook off his hand and walked straight outside. She had only come to take a look and didn't intend to do anything.
The footsteps behind her were steady and powerful. The man tried to take her hand again, but Ye Xinning turned around and raised her hand.
The next second.
"Smack."
Ye Xinning delivered a solid slap to the man's face. She was the one who hit him, and she was also the one smiling brightly.
Am I easy to fool?
Having been slapped, Shen Lin's eyes turned cold as he stared at her without saying a word. His terrifying gaze seemed to want to devour her whole.
Ye Xinning was already used to such silence. Who was she? Why should Shen Lin explain to her? In his heart, she was absolutely unworthy.
"Let's get a divorce, Shen Lin." She smiled faintly, her eyes fixed on Shen Lin.
Now that things have come to this, this loveless marriage has come to an end. She tried her best, but to no avail. Since that's the case, she's giving Shen Lin his freedom.
This afternoon, she received news that Shen Lin was hiding a woman in his riverside villa, and what's more, the woman was pregnant.
At the time, she simply couldn't believe that even if Shen Lin didn't love her, he wouldn't do such a thing during their marriage.
But when she saw the woman with her own eyes, she realized how ridiculous her previous convictions had been.
Ye Xinning often wondered to herself if it was really worth it to gamble everything on marrying Shen Lin.
When she first met Shen Lin, he was seriously injured. She took care of him, was attracted to him, and fell in love with him.
She was nearly assassinated, and it was Shen Lin who risked his own safety to save her.
Later, Shen Lin was in a car accident and barely survived, but he forgot about her.
Since marrying Shen Lin, she has been very tolerant and has given him the utmost patience.
She always remembered that on the night she was assassinated, Shen Lin almost died to save her. She firmly believed that a man who would risk his life to save her could not possibly be a bad man.
But Shen Lin, who once risked his life for her, may have already died in that car accident back then.
"dream."
Long after she finished speaking, Chen Lin's deep, cold voice rang out in the silent night, expressing his attitude in two words.
"I'll give up my place for that woman and let you two be together, isn't that better?"
This time, Shen Lin didn't say anything, but forcefully grabbed her hand and led her to the car.
Ye Xinning was annoyed by his attempts to gloss over the situation. She struggled to get out of the car, but Shen Lin pinned her down.
He leaned close to her, whispering in her ear, his unfathomable eyes gleaming with a chilling coldness.
"You were the one who went to great lengths to marry me back then, and now you want to call it off? Ye Xinning, how can you expect to have everything?"
After Shen Lin finished speaking, he bit her earlobe, and Ye Xinning pushed him away in pain.
Shen Lin's eyes were cold and sharp as he looked at her, his gaze filled with gloom and ruthlessness.
"Don't think I don't know why you want a divorce. Huo Yanzhi just came back, and you're already so eager to throw yourself into his arms?"
The moment Ye Xinning's body trembled, she felt a chill run through her.
"What did you say?"
