Goodbye, scumbag husband, the one who is not loved is the clown

Xu Jiayun thought that she would not have to meet Pei Sangyu again until the documentary recording was finished.

Unexpectedly, I was still optimistic.

Ah Yuan followed Xu Jiayun, chattering like a little sparrow: "Mr. Pei must have come here specially to spend New Year's Eve with the young lady!"

"New Year's Eve?" Xu Jiayun stepped onto the first step and paused to look at Ayuan. "Is today New Year's Eve?"

"Yes! Today is New Year's Eve! Madam is too busy with work to go back, so Mr. Pei came here to accompany you personally. Wow, how romantic!"

Ayuan held her cheeks with both hands, looking infatuated.

Chi Yu pulled her over and walked towards the kitchen.

"Chi Yu, please be quiet. I still want to talk to the young lady..."

"You talk too much. Go talk to the cook."

A Yuan: “…”

Xu Jiayun looked at the two figures playing and walking away, then looked away.

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and then walk into the house.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, a man with one hand in his pocket, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, held a mobile phone to his ear with the other hand, and rolled up his sleeves a little, revealing a strong, white forearm.

From Xu Jiayun's perspective, he was facing away from her, with a tall and slender figure. Outside the window was an open-air swimming pool. The sunlight projected on the water surface and refracted onto the glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows, making the water shimmer.

Pei Sangyu stood there, his whole body seemed to be shrouded in that light, making him look more approachable, dreamy and unreal.

Xu Jiayun frowned.

She thought it must be because he was wearing a white shirt today, which he never wore before, that gave her such a ridiculous illusion.

The word "affinity" has nothing to do with Pei Sangyu at all.

"Young Madam." Zhou Jing, who also had his sleeves rolled up, walked in from the side door and saw Xu Jiayun. He nodded respectfully to her.

"Assistant Zhou." Xu Jiayun turned her gaze to Zhou Jing and saw a few stains on his shirt. He looked rather disheveled. "What's wrong with you?"

"I accidentally made a mess while lighting the charcoal fire." Zhou Jing smiled awkwardly, "I'll go take care of it."

Xu Jiayun responded indifferently and watched Zhou Jing turn around and walk into the public bathroom on the first floor.

Pei Sangyu heard the noise and looked sideways.

Xu Jiayun met his eyes, her hands hanging at her sides tightening slightly, suppressing her irritation as she softly called out, "Ayu."

Pei Sangyu said to the person on the other end of the phone, "Zhou Jing will pick you up later. I'm hanging up now."

After hanging up the phone, Pei Sangyu walked towards Xu Jiayun.

Xu Jiayun recalled that the last time they met was a month ago at the Civil Affairs Bureau, and the conversation and atmosphere were not pleasant.

She stared at Pei Sangyu, watching him gradually approach, and she resisted the urge to step back.

Pei Sangyu stopped a few steps in front of her, his dark eyes calm as he looked her over from head to toe with a scrutinizing gaze. "You've gained weight."

Xu Jiayun curled his lips slightly, "I think so."

Actually, I have gained some weight. When I don’t have to face Pei Sangyu, I can eat and sleep well. How can I not gain weight?

"Today is New Year's Eve." Pei Sangyu said in a low voice, "I invited a few friends to come over to celebrate the New Year together."

Xu Jiayun nodded, not interested in the friend he mentioned.

A Yuan said Pei Sangyu came specially to spend New Year's Eve with her, but she didn't believe it.

Pei Sangyu came here suddenly, and there could be various reasons, but it definitely wasn't for her.

Disappointed?

She was quite disappointed because she actually hoped Pei Sangyu would not come!

New Year’s Eve is meaningful only when you spend it with the people you care about.

what is this?

Xu Jiayun lowered his eyes, looking listless.

She knew she should act, at least at this time she should show more surprise and emotion.

But perhaps she had been spoiled by the comfortable days this month and could not even muster the energy to act.

"You don't seem very happy that I'm here?"

Xu Jiayun's eyelids twitched and she looked up to meet the man's gaze.

The nerve in her brain tensed again. She shook her head with a cautious look on her face. "I was just too surprised."

Pei Sangyu seemed dissatisfied with her answer.

He took a step forward, held her chin, and approached with a stern face.

The tips of their noses were almost touching, their breaths entwined.

Xu Jiayun frowned, "What's wrong?"

"It seems like you've been having a very comfortable time this month. Are you hoping that I won't bother you again, huh?"

Of course.

Xu Jiayun answered without hesitation.

But on the surface, he looked aggrieved, "You know how I feel about you, can you please stop saying such things?"

"You haven't called me in a month. Is this what you call love?"

"I was afraid of upsetting you..." Xu Jiayun's voice trembled, and her eyes were red. "On the day we got the marriage certificate, you asked Zhou Jing to convey my words, and I've always remembered them."

Hearing this, Pei Sangyu let go of his hand.

"It seems that you are indeed more sensible than before." Pei Sangyu curled his thin lips slightly, with a cool arc.

"I'm a little tired after working all day, so I'm going back to my room to rest." Xu Jiayun rubbed his eyes, walked past him with his head down, and went upstairs.

"Jiang Se and Yan Nanzhou will also be here tonight, so you'd better watch your mouth."

Xu Jiayun paused, didn't turn around, just nodded, "I will."

Pei Sangyu watched her back as she went upstairs and narrowed his eyes.

……

The door closed, Xu Jiayun leaned his back against the door, closed his eyes and let out a long breath.

After a month away, a month without Pei Sangyu, she realized how fulfilling and beautiful a normal life is.

It was just too short.

She lowered her head and stroked her belly with her hand.

How long will it take for this hypocritical and calculating life to end?

I'm really a bit tired.

She looked at her slightly bulging belly, her eyes filled with confusion.

...

As night fell, the sound of cars could be heard downstairs.

Soon, the sound of lively conversation could be heard.

In the bedroom, Xu Jiayun lay on her side.

She slowly opened her eyes, having not slept much.

The room was dark. She turned on the night light, got up and sat on the bed, lost in thought for a while.

Chi Yu came and knocked on the door, saying that the dinner was about to start.

Xu Jiayun lifted the quilt and got out of bed, washed his face, put on his coat and went to open the door.

Chi Yu stood outside the door, looking at her, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"What's wrong?" Xu Jiayun noticed that she had something to say.

"The little daughter of the Sheng family is here too."

Xu Jiayun frowned, "Sheng Yixue?"

Chi Yu nodded, "She seems to be familiar with Mr. Yan's female secretary."

In her previous life, Xu Jiayun had no contact with Yan Nanzhou, let alone someone like Jiang Mi.

I didn’t know that Sheng Yixiu and Jiang Mi also knew each other.

She was a little wary in her heart, but her face remained calm. "I understand."

"Don't think too much. There is definitely no relationship between you and the daughter of the Sheng family."

Xu Jiayun looked at Chi Yu, feeling a bit amused and helpless, "Chi Yu, you are becoming more and more nagging."

Chi Yu: "...I'm just afraid that you'll think too much. Doctor Jiang always calls me to tell me to pay attention to your mood. Many pregnant women suffer from depression these days."

"Don't worry, I won't do that." Xu Jiayun curled her lips slightly, "Besides, I am now Mrs. Pei in full authority. No matter how many thoughts Sheng Yixue has, what can she do? If she dares to seduce A Yu, I won't tolerate it!"

Chi Yu nodded slightly, "I thought you didn't care about Mr. Pei anymore."

"How is that possible?" Xu Jiayun touched her belly, "I love him so much, I will never give him to anyone else!"

If Mrs. Pei could be replaced by anyone, wouldn't she be laughed at and abused every year after she was born?

She would never let this happen again!
