Jiang Tian noticed that Li Xiu's expression was off and asked with some confusion, "What's wrong? Will I receive something?"
Li Xiu's expression changed slightly. He forced a smile and shook his head: "No..."
"That's good. Now that you're here, wait for me to get off work. Let's go home for dinner."
After spending some time together, Li Xiu would occasionally accompany Jiang Tian out to eat, but most of the time, the two ate at home.
Even Li Xiu found it strange. He was originally very reluctant to eat out, but he would accompany Jiang Tian to eat whatever she wanted without having any negative feelings.
Upon hearing that she wanted to go home for dinner, Li Xiu suppressed the overwhelming sorrow in his heart and said to her, "Then I'll go buy groceries now."
"Let's go together. I'll be done in a bit. Wait for me."
Jiang Tian kissed him on the cheek, then left him to stay in the reception room while she went out to work.
Li Xiu knew very well that Shao Jinghe had also come to this place a few hours earlier.
He also handed the evidence over to Jiang Tian.
Perhaps he can find some clues about the USB drive by searching in this meeting room.
However, he didn't touch Jiang Tian's things.
For no other reason than that he could reveal his dark side in other places, but on Jiang Tian's turf, he wanted to maintain a normal person's state as much as possible.
Perhaps considering his presence, Jiang Tian quickly finished her work?
She took his hand: "Let's go back for lunch. Do you have to work this afternoon?"
Li Xiu shook his head.
At this moment, his heart was in turmoil, making it impossible for him to work.
"I'm not planning to come over this afternoon either. Let's just stay home."
Jiang Tian smiled and said to him.
Li Xiu would have been very happy, but now he couldn't quite manage a smile.
He was afraid of being exposed in front of Jiang Tian.
So he could only remain silent.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy about being snuggled up with me?"
Jiang Tian deliberately pretended to be angry.
Li Xiu forced a smile: "No, I'm very happy..."
Jiang Tian glanced at him and remained silent.
The two drove home quickly.
Li Xiu could tell that Jiang Tian was in a bad mood because of his answer, and his heart was in turmoil.
As soon as Jiang Tian entered the door, she ignored him and went straight into the kitchen.
Li Xiu obediently followed behind her.
He tried to help wash the vegetables, but Jiang Tian pushed him away.
"You can go now, it'll be done in a bit."
Even though her tone and expression were the same as before, Li Xiu sensed that she was angry.
She was very angry.
A bitter feeling welled up in Li Xiu's heart.
He glanced at the busy figure beside him and murmured, "I'm sorry..."
Jiang Tian did not respond to him and continued her actions as usual.
Li Xiu gave a weak, forced smile. He stood there, as if the whole world had forgotten him.
He should have known that with his temper and unpredictable personality, Jiang Tian would eventually reach her breaking point.
Shao Jinghe gave her the USB drive, but only to speed up the process.
He deserved it.
He shouldn't exist in this world...
Someone like him might be useful if he were reincarnated as a pig or a dog, but what's the point of him living as a human being...?
"Could you move aside? You're blocking my way."
Just as Li Xiu was lost in his own thoughts, he heard Jiang Tian's somewhat cold and hard voice.
He instinctively dodged to the side, but unexpectedly bumped into a bowl full of water. He reached out and caught the bowl, but all the water spilled onto him.
Li Xiu's clothes, worth tens of thousands of yuan, were soaked through.
Everything happened so fast that by the time Li Xiu realized what was happening, his whole body was ice-cold.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and change your clothes."
Seeing that he was still in a daze, Jiang Tian was really disappointed in him. She took his hand, opened the wardrobe, and took out a set of clothes for him.
"Go change."
After being doused with water, Li Xiu's thoughts actually became clearer.
He looked down at Jiang Tian, who was still concerned about him, and gave a smile that was more like a grimace: "Jiang Tian, I'm sorry, I've been hiding something from you..."
The torment he had been enduring was driving Li Xiu to the brink of collapse.
"Don't say anything yet, let me tell you about today. I know what you mean by asking me this question. Shao Jinghe came today, we talked for a few minutes, he left me a USB drive and left. I threw the USB drive in the trash can and forgot about it immediately."
"In my eyes, this is a trivial matter. I think your unusual behavior today is probably because of him, right?"
Li Xiuzhen was surprised that Jiang Tian told him everything so readily, as if spilling beans.
He looked surprised.
"Is that thing important? If you want it, I can call the front desk. They probably haven't taken out the trash yet, so I can ask her to find it for you."
