No matter what, the pregnant belly couldn't be hidden anymore, and Yang He's eyes were filled with shock.
Rich people are really different. She's been gone for a few months and her belly is already so big. She was chasing after Shen Shixun just a second ago, and now that she's pregnant, she's coming back to find him. Is she trying to make Shen Shixun wear a green hat?
Yang He was immediately displeased. Although he was the richest man in the ancient city, he shouldn't have been so arrogant and domineering, and he even wanted someone to become his father. That was going too far.
Looking at the injuries on Shen Shixun's face, Yang He suddenly understood everything.
Did you inflict the injuries on Sehun?
He was blunt and direct: "Miss Xiang, you've gone too far."
Xiang Nanzhi was taken aback. "Yang He, I'd like to have a few words with him alone."
"If Sehun doesn't acknowledge you, you'll have him beaten. This isn't love, it's imprisonment, it's an insult to a man!"
Xiang Nanzhi opened his mouth and looked at Yang He. Yang He then said, "Shixun will not agree to this kind of thing. You should ask someone else! A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. You may have money, but you can't act recklessly."
"You started hitting him because he disagreed with you. I thought you genuinely liked him... Are all rich women this unreasonable and domineering?"
Her arrogance and unreasonableness became her fault.
"Shen Shixun, it was wrong of my brother to hit you, and I apologize to you, but my brother was also concerned about me."
"Miss Xiang..."
Jiang Yao couldn't stand it anymore. What nonsense was this man spouting? "Who are you? Let them handle their own affairs. Can't we outsiders just stay out of the way?"
"Miss Xiang, what you're saying is incredibly insulting! It's an insult to a man's dignity!"
"Hey, you're meddling way too much in their business!"
As Xiang Nanzhi's best friend, she didn't dare to care so much. Where did this man come from? So fussy!
"Shixun is my brother, how can I ignore him? Miss Xiang, you...you..."
Yang He looked at her belly and was speechless, feeling that the whole thing was absurd.
Wait... what? What did she just say?
Yang He looked at Jiang Yao and asked, "What couple?"
"They're a married couple, can't you just let them handle things themselves?"
"couple?"
Yang He stared at Shen Shixun in disbelief, trying to find some answer on his face, but his eyes remained cold and devoid of any emotion.
No matter how well someone hides their true nature, they will eventually reveal something, but Shen Shixun is completely flawless.
"Are you and Miss Xiang married?"
Yang He's jaw dropped in shock. "You and Miss Xiang are actually husband and wife?"
"When...when did this happen?"
"Sehun, when did this happen?"
No one had ever told him this.
"Even if you're married, you can't cheat on your husband. You got pregnant with another man, and then you had him beaten up like this?!"
Yang He's thought process is truly amazing.
"Can we get out, sir? I understand your kindness, but that's not how you use your kindness. Don't talk nonsense if you don't know anything."
"What do you know? Who are you?"
“Shen Shixun…”
The man stood up, having already extinguished his cigarette sometime earlier. "Yang He, you can leave now. I want to talk to her alone."
The door closed, and the room was eerily quiet. Shen Shixun's injuries were still clearly visible, but they hadn't been treated and looked somewhat grotesque.
Xiang Nanzhi sat down. She had come with great eagerness, but now that she had seen him, she didn't know how to start a conversation.
"Regarding Chen Moli, whether she exists or not, I'll assume she doesn't. You've just come from the grasslands, so you might not be used to the allure of the big city right now."
"You are so understanding."
It sounded like a compliment, but Xiang Nanzhi felt extremely uncomfortable. "What do you mean?"
"Shen Shixun, my older brother is doing this for my own good. He can't bear to see me suffer..." But as long as she doesn't feel wronged, doesn't complain, and doesn't cry at home, they won't do anything to Shen Shixun.
Xiang Nanzhi took a deep breath. "I forgive you."
"Who asked you for forgiveness?"
Xiang Nanzhi looked up, tears welling up in her eyes with a sudden sense of grievance. "What did you say to Yang He?"
"He didn't say anything."
She stood up and placed the necklace on the table. "Don't do it again. I've already given up all my dignity and self-respect for you, so please don't make things difficult for me."
"Did I put you in a difficult position?"
Xiang Nanzhi stood up. "Fine, I believe you. I believe you, okay? Can you please let this go for the sake of the child? I should have turned a blind eye and controlled my emotions that day. I shouldn't have made a scene, and I shouldn't have let my older brother come with me..."
She grew angrier and angrier, and hit Shen Shixun, yelling, "You bastard!"
Xiang Nan doesn't know where things will develop from here, but she really wants to wait until after she gives birth before making any plans. Shen Shixun can't leave right now.
She was afraid of giving birth alone without him by her side.
Her older brothers, including her father, could never give her the same sense of security that Shen Shixun could.
Shen Shixun didn't take the necklace; he had already made up his mind completely.
Today is just the beginning; there will be many more similar events in the future. Xiang Nanzhi's attitude speaks volumes, as does his situation.
“Xiang Nanzhi, you don’t need to wrong yourself. If you think I’ve cheated on you and been unfaithful, then no matter how I explain, it won’t make a difference.”
"You don't know what's good for you!"
Xiang Nanzhi was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes. "I've never seen such an ungrateful person."
I've said all the nice things, what more does he want?
“I may be ungrateful, but I don’t want to live a life of ignominy under the Xiang family’s umbrella, and I don’t need your charity.”
He didn't need it from the beginning; she gradually pulled him into that dazzling world, and he was full of passion, wanting to give her everything that matched it.
He never actually intended for Xiang Nanzhi to suffer with him, but he couldn't change the current situation, and Xiang Nanzhi didn't need him as much as he had imagined.
Without trust, nothing can be discussed.
When did I give you charity?
"This is charity."
He didn't believe it in his heart, yet he tried to forgive, what he thought was magnanimity, which to him was charity.
He didn't care about material possessions, but if those things could satisfy Xiang Nanzhi and make her comfortable, he was willing to pursue them.
"Have you ever thought about this...?"
"I've thought about it."
Shen Shixun squatted down in front of her and touched her stomach with his large hand.
He never felt that he and Xiang Nanzhi were from the same world, and at this moment, he felt that even more strongly...
She was carrying their child. Shen Shixun softened, looking down at Nan Zhi, "You..."
"Xiang Nanzhi, I've made up my mind."
This situation makes both of us uncomfortable and unhappy, so why continue?
"Let's get a divorce after the baby is born."
