After I caught the scumbag cheating, Mr. Xiao wanted to marry me

After listening to Liu Lin's words before going to bed, Shen Lan dreamed of the scene when Xiao Yun was poisoned. She slept very uneasily and the dark circles under her eyes could not be covered.

The aftermath of the nightmare was that whenever she saw Xiao Yun, her face couldn't help but be filled with pity.

Xiao Yun met her kind gaze with an expressionless face.

What on earth did that damn Liu Lin say to her? Why was Shen Lan looking at him so strangely?

After breakfast, Shen Lan followed Xiao Yun to the company, holding a few books in her arms, ready to read in her free time. Always playing with her mobile phone seemed disrespectful to the boss, and doing nothing made her seem like a stone lion guarding the door of a wealthy family.

Two days passed leisurely like this.

The Lu family didn't cause any trouble, and Xiao Yun was easy to serve. Except for Xiao Ren who had to put on a fake smile to make his presence felt in front of her every day, everything was perfect.

When Shen Lan thought that he would live and work peacefully, an accident occurred.

That morning, before she woke up, she heard the sound of something breaking next door.

Shen Lan quickly got up, rushed out of the room with disheveled hair, and knocked on Xiao Yun's door anxiously.

"Xiao Yun, are you okay?"

The door was quickly opened, and Xiao Yun came out. He had a fierce look to begin with, and now he exuded a low aura, with his brows furrowed, his thin lips tightly pursed, and his dark eyes as thick as ink.

Shen Lan's hand that was knocking on the door stopped in place. When he looked at her, she felt as if a chill rose from the soles of her feet and her back went cold.

It took her a long time to find her voice and she asked quietly, "What's wrong with you?"

Xiao Yun didn't answer, but looked her up and down.

Shen Lan rushed out in a hurry, wearing pajamas, with her long hair like a waterfall scattered behind her. Her little face was pale, her facial features were delicate and bright, the corners of her eyes were slightly tilted up, with a blush from not waking up yet, and she had a kind of innocent and unconscious charm.

Xiao Yun's throat tightened, and he felt his body tense up, his brows becoming even more gloomy.

"Pack up and go downstairs. I'm hungry."

After he finished speaking, he turned and went downstairs. After a while, a servant came up to tidy up his room.

Shen Lan couldn't face anyone in this state, so he hid in the crack of the door and watched the servants clean up a pile of porcelain and glass fragments.

She frowned slightly, her eyes puzzled.

Xiao Yun was fine last night, why did he suddenly lose his temper early in the morning? And his temper was so fierce, as if his whole body was covered with thorns, lonely, cold and dangerous.

The servants of the Xiao family were also acting abnormally today. They had a very low sense of presence and walked lightly, afraid of making any noise.

This made Shen Lan very nervous. She didn't dare to breathe while eating. Xiao Yun looked like he didn't want anyone to come in, so she didn't dare to talk to him.

Liu Lin came to pick them up early in the morning. He didn't have his usual smile on his face, but kept a serious expression throughout. Shen Lan had been getting to know him well over the past few days, and one look at his demeanor told her he was extremely tense.

After joining the company, Shen Lan didn't dare to be lazy and read books. She just acted like her stone lion, except that she had a big red flower tied on her chest.

After finally finding an opportunity during the break, Shen Lan pulled Liu Lin into the tea room.

"Liu Lin, what's going on with Mr. Xiao? Everyone's been acting weird all day. It's so scary. Did something happen at the company? Could it be that Xiao Corporation is in big trouble and going bankrupt?"

Shen Lan looked worried. He couldn't let the golden thigh he had finally found be lost just like that.

Liu Lin was speechless: "What are you thinking? Even if you lose the Xiao family, it's impossible for you to die."

"So what's going on?"

Liu Lin hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Today is the anniversary of Mr. Xiao's mother's death."

"So that's how it is." Shen Lan suddenly realized. If that was the case, then there was an explanation for Xiao Yun's strange behavior today.

Liu Lin sighed: "You have seen what Mr. Xiao's father looks like. Being his wife means suffering that ordinary people can hardly imagine."

He didn't explain it clearly, but as a woman, Shen Lan naturally understood.

I'm afraid Xiao Yun's mother didn't die in a very dignified way.

"Mr. Xiao must have a very good relationship with his mother."

After Shen Lan said this with a sigh, she suddenly thought of her mother. She felt the same way and her eyes suddenly became red.

She also missed her mother, thinking about her day and night, and she didn't dare let her mind go blank. Once she did, the tragic death of her parents would appear in front of her eyes.

Shen Lan was still sad and didn't notice Liu Lin's strange and complicated look for a moment.

"In short, don't mention his mother in front of Mr. Xiao. This is a taboo in the entire Xiao family."

After Liu Lin said this vaguely, he went back to work.

Xiao Yun finished work early that day and asked Shen Lan to prepare some fruits and vegetables as tribute and bring them to the Xiao family cemetery.

Shen Lan was waiting outside the cemetery. After a while, Xiao Yun came out. Not only did his mood not improve, but he looked even more depressed.

After returning to the Xiao family, Xiao Yun walked in and asked the servant where Xiao Ren was.

Shen Lan's eyelids twitched, and he had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, the servant stammered, "The master went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet."

Xiao Yun's eyes darkened, and the cold air around him was enough to freeze someone to death.

"Shen Lan, don't make dinner. I have no appetite."

After saying this, Xiao Yun went straight upstairs to his room.

Shen Lan had no appetite. She looked upstairs with some worry, wondering what she could do to make Xiao Yun feel better. The atmosphere was too depressing.

Before she could think it through, Xiao Yun's furious voice came from upstairs.

"Who are you, get out!"
