Chapter 6: Everyone is helping him to lie
I looked at his sleeping face and then glanced down. Below his left collarbone, there was a small blue moon tattooed. It was the place closest to his heart, and it was my symbol.
In the near future, a white cloud will appear next to the small moon. It is the spot that Shen Yixiao secretly left for Lu Xiaoyun.
His explanation to me was, "A moon is too lonely. Even if it's a tattoo, I can't bear to see you lying alone on my chest, so I specially added a cloud to accompany you."
How can I be lonely when I am beside a heart that loves me?
Unless that heart no longer loves me.
——
The next day was Saturday.
Shen Yixiao didn’t have to go to the company, he woke up lazily and habitually reached out to touch where I was.
I'm already up.
"Wife, why are you making breakfast by yourself again? Don't you have an aunt here? Sleep a little longer--" He came down from upstairs, and his words stopped abruptly when he saw the two people sitting at the dining table.
Meng Zicheng had a sandwich in his mouth, and Liang Feng was drinking soy milk.
When the two saw Shen Yixiao, they greeted him in unison, "Good morning, Brother Xiao!"
I came over with a bowl of seafood porridge and placed it on the table with a faint smile on my face, "Wake up, have some porridge. Zicheng and Afeng came early in the morning. I couldn't sleep, so I came down to entertain them."
Meng Zicheng winked and said, "I'm sorry to disturb Brother Xiao and Sister-in-law's early morning warmth."
"Are you two beggars? You can't afford breakfast at home, so you come here and ask my wife to make breakfast for you?" Although Shen Yixiao was cursing, there was a smile on his face.
Liang Feng drank the last sip of soy milk and wiped his mouth clean. "The soy milk cooked by my sister-in-law is still the best. It feels like I've returned to the old days."
At that time, a few of us shared a small yard. I would make breakfast for them from time to time. We were very happy and harmonious together.
The corners of my mouth turned up, my smile slightly sarcastic.
These two people and Shen Yixiao are brothers who have been through thick and thin together, and they are also my good friends. I treat them like my own brothers and I think we have a very good relationship with them.
But when Shen Yixiao was with Lu Xiaoyun on his back, they were the best wingmen.
She calls me "sister-in-law" all the time and talks about reminiscing about the past, but her actions actually treat me like a fool.
I don’t understand why, and I don’t want to understand. Anyway, one day I will be ready and leave these scumbags.
"Of course, my wife's craftsmanship is unmatched by those shops out there." Shen Yixiao naturally put his arm around my waist and showed off.
Meng Zicheng was extremely envious. "Back then, my sister-in-law didn't even touch any water, but she learned cooking skills just for you. Why can't I meet such a good woman?"
I sat down next to Shen Yixiao, with a calm expression on my face, and listened to their conversation quietly.
Meng Zicheng is a playboy who changes girlfriends like changing clothes. How can he possibly meet a good woman? Even if you meet it, you can't catch it.
Maybe it's because they all have a lot of fun, so when faced with Shen Yixiao's cheating, they not only don't feel guilty, but they even feel like they are good brothers of the same mind.
They talked about the past, interspersed with the love memories of Shen Yixiao and I. In a trance, it seemed as if we had really returned to the beginning.
Until Meng Zicheng stood up, "By the way, sister-in-law, you have to lend us Brother Xiao today, so that the brothers can get together to have a meal and brag, okay?"
"Fuck you, are you guys unable to eat without a dinner party now? Every time I have some time to spend with my wife, you come to me for dinner?" Shen Yixiao looked furious.
But I know that they all colluded to create opportunities for Shen Yixiao to go out and meet his lover.
Looking at the three people whom I once knew best and trusted the most, performing a clumsy play in front of me, I felt only disgust and ridicule.
Seeing that Shen Yixiao was reluctant to go out, I deliberately said, "Since Yixiao is reluctant to go out, why don't I cook some food at home, and you call other people over to have a meal at home."
When these words came out, the three of them were stunned.
In my previous life, I trusted them immensely, and I readily agreed every time, and even pushed Shen Yixiao to go out and meet them.
I almost laughed out loud when I saw their reaction.
Shen Yixiao's expression changed slightly and he looked at Liang Feng.
Liang Feng immediately spoke up, "Sister-in-law, those people love to drink. When they are drunk, they are unhygienic and noisy. It is better not to bring them home to bother you. Don't worry, we promise not to let Brother Xiao drink too much!"
"Wife, I'll go with them so they don't bother me." Shen Yixiao spoke, and he kissed me on the face affectionately, "I'll be back before seven in the evening."
I pushed him and said, "Well, go ahead."
The touch of the kiss made me feel more and more sick, as if I was stuck by a leech.
Shen Yixiao stood up and left with Meng Zicheng and Liang Feng, not noticing that my reaction was wrong.
His heart is now with Lu Xiaoyun. As long as there is a reason to get away from me, he would want to leave immediately and he no longer has the patience to pay attention to so many things.
I asked the maid to clear the dishes and went upstairs to my bedroom.
I found all the gold jewelry I had from my wedding, including a diamond ring, put them all in my bag, and then left home.
After finding a pawn shop, I exchanged all my gold and diamond rings for money and deposited them in my bank card.
If you really want to leave, you have to go far away and it will cost a lot of money to settle down and live.
On the way home, I passed a hair salon.
"Please cut my hair short and dye it brown," I said to the hairdresser.
"Miss, your hair is in very good condition. It would be a pity to cut it short." The hairdresser picked up my hair and took a look at it.
I looked at myself in the mirror. I still had the same long, straight black hair as when I was seventeen, but I was no longer the seventeen-year-old me, and Shen Yixiao had someone else who could replace me.
I smiled slightly, my eyes firm, "Cut it short, just below the ears."
It’s enough for Shen Yixiao’s fingertips to be entangled with Lu Xiaoyun’s hair, I think it’s dirty.
After the haircut I felt extremely refreshed and in a better mood, so I paid and drove back to the apartment.
In the parking lot of the apartment, Shen Yixiao's Rolls-Royce was parked in the parking space, and next to it was the red BMW that Lu Xiaoyun often drove.
At this moment, the two of them are enjoying an exciting affair in the apartment.
This is the first property that Shen Yixiao and I purchased. From renting to buying, it has witnessed our love. Even if we don’t live here anymore, we can’t bear to give it to others.
Now, it has become the best place for him to have secret affairs with other women.
It’s easy to be discovered if you go to the hotel, so it’s safer and more exciting to come here.
He once said that he saw my shadow in Lu Xiaoyun. Was he also mistaking her for me at this moment when we were making love in bed?
Men are really good at finding excuses for their desires. By calling them "love", they make it seem as if cheating is great and holy.
I curled up in the driver's seat, recalling every detail of my previous life while waiting for them to come out.
