Chapter 89 Don't Call Me
"By the way, Li Yue, why are you here?" Teacher Bai asked again.
This question reminded me of Shen Yixiao.
I quickly glanced in the direction where Shen Yixiao had left just now, and my heart was hanging in the air. If he came back and saw this scene, he would go crazy again.
So I had to end the topic as soon as possible and separate from Teacher Bai and Xu Zhengnan.
"I'm just here for a ride. Teacher Bai, Xu Zhengnan, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." After I said that, I hurried towards the car.
Teacher Bai and Xu Zhengnan were a little surprised by my sudden haste, but did not try to keep me. After I got in the car, I saw through the window that Xu Zhengnan was pushing Teacher Bai's wheelchair away.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and just when I relaxed, Shen Yixiao came back with a box of octopus balls and shrimp dumplings.
He saw me sitting in the main driver's seat and asked in confusion, "Honey, you want to drive?"
"Well, I'll drive the way back." I explained.
Shen Yixiao didn't think much about it. He handed me the things he bought and told me to eat a little to fill my stomach and drive back after my stomach felt better.
I took the food and it still tasted the same as before, but it didn’t taste as good as before. Maybe my mood has changed, so the taste is no longer as attractive to me.
But I still finished everything. Seeing how deliciously I ate, Shen Yixiao smiled, as if he thought that as long as I ate everything he bought, it meant that we were reconciled again.
I used to be so easy to please. I would take the opportunity when he gave me a way out, and we would never get to the point where the dispute could not be reconciled.
"Does your stomach feel better?" he asked softly.
I nodded, "Much better, let's go back."
I was worried that Xu Zhengnan and the others would turn back again. Deep down, I didn't want him and Shen Yixiao to meet at all, even if it was just an accidental encounter.
Shen Yixiao had no objection, so I drove away immediately. I didn't breathe a sigh of relief until I drove out of the long avenue near the school.
When he got home, it was already very late. Shen Yixiao still had to work tomorrow, so he took a shower and went to bed quickly.
I originally wanted to go to the company, but he told me to just be a figurehead. I would still get paid, but I wouldn't need to go to the company, so I could focus on the store's business.
I know that he actually didn't want me to go to the company because that would mean I would be in close contact with him, and I would be able to monitor him and Lu Xiaoyun every day, and I would also probably hear rumors from other people.
In that case, I won’t go for the time being.
"Then give me my ID card and I'll go and handle the formalities myself." I reminded him casually.
Shen Yixiao paused, an unnatural look passing across his face.
I mentioned before that I wanted to travel, and he said he would make arrangements, but there has been no follow-up and he hasn't given me my ID card.
"If you do everything for me, it would be so boring. You might as well go to work in a company," I added.
Shen Yixiao didn't want me to go to the company, so he had to agree, "I'll give you my ID card when I come back in the evening. I'm mainly worried that you might lose it, which is quite troublesome."
What's the trouble? Isn't it just a replacement ID card?
He's afraid that I might leave him, so it's very troublesome.
I was very satisfied with the result and said with a smile, "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely prove that I can make money too."
"Silly wife, we are not short of money, you just need to kill time." Shen Yixiao looked at me lovingly with a helpless smile on his face.
I nodded, "I understand, you can go to the company soon."
After Shen Yixiao left, I packed my things and went out.
An hour later, I met Qiu Xinlian and gave her the two treasured paintings I brought from home. "Sister Qiu, you can authenticate them on the spot."
Qiu Xinlian's eyes were very sharp. She only looked at the two paintings for a while and touched them, and she had already made a conclusion, "They are authentic. Name your price."
I had checked the market prices of these two paintings before I came, and I offered a price lower than the market price.
Because these paintings were the collection that Shen Yixiao bought with his own money and gave to me, I like them very much, but now I just want the money.
Money can be deposited in a small card, but paintings cannot. It would be too troublesome to take them away later.
"This price is much lower than the market price. Are you sure?" Qiu Xinlian looked at me in surprise.
I didn’t hesitate at all, “Well, that’s the price.”
Not only am I in a hurry to take action, but I also want to deepen my cooperative relationship with Qiu Xinlian. I will need her help in many areas in the future.
Qiu Xinlian laughed, "Okay, I'll take it. Do you have any other requests?"
"Yes, I want fakes of these two paintings, more authentic ones." I pointed to the two paintings.
Otherwise, it would be very troublesome if Shen Yixiao found out that the painting was missing.
Qiu Xinlian answered readily, "Okay, I won't charge you for this. I'll give it to you for free."
"Thanks."
After leaving Qiu Xinlian, I soon received a transfer in my card, and I breathed a sigh of relief. The more money I had, the more at ease I felt. This was the capital for my future life after leaving Shen Yixiao.
I believe that if it really comes to a divorce, I won't be able to get Shen Yixiao's property openly, and the so-called half-and-half split is difficult.
He would even use the property as an excuse to stop me from wanting a divorce, letting me know that I would be stuck without him.
The joy of receiving the money made me feel very good. I couldn't help wanting to buy something for my mother. When I went shopping with her, she would always refuse, so I planned to buy the gifts myself, including gifts for my father and Li Qingming, and then give them to them with the help of my mother.
I wandered around shopping malls and shopping streets, and seemed to have found new hope. I had the urge to shop and just wanted to buy, buy, and buy.
After buying the things, I sent a message to my mother, then drove to my home and waited for her to come out to get the things.
Just as I was happily waiting for my mother to come over, someone knocked on my car window. I turned my head and was stunned, and my emotions became tense.
My dad stood outside the car, looking at me sternly.
I opened the door and got out of the car, feeling at a loss. Compared to my mother, I was more afraid of my father. My family was originally a combination of a kind mother and a strict father. My father was very strict in educating me since I was a child. Before I met Shen Yixiao, I was his pride.
"Dad..." I called out softly, my voice trembling.
"Don't call me!" my father scolded, "We have severed our father-daughter relationship a long time ago. Why are you here? Who asked you to come?"
My father's tone was full of rejection and severity. There was no surprise or regret between us that had not been seen for many years, but there was a knot in our hearts that had not dissipated for many years.
The smile I was trying to maintain on my face froze, and my heart was hit hard.
"I..." I pulled the corners of my mouth, my eyes were hot, but I endured not to let myself cry, "I heard that you were back, so I bought you some gifts."
