After the divorce, the crazy CEO knocked on his ex-wife's door every night.
Chapter 2 Making Friends with Miss Shen
He leaned against the wall, listening to the sobs coming from inside the ward, his fists clenching unconsciously.
After a long while, until there was no sound from inside, Lu Yuchen pushed the door open and entered.
Shen Xuan had gotten out of bed and was packing her things.
Hearing the noise, she immediately turned her head and looked over. "You are... Young Master Lu?"
Shen Xuan remembered this man.
Previously, the Shen family and the Lu family had a collaborative project, and she had interacted with this second young master of the Lu family.
He appears gentle and refined on the surface, but is actually unfathomable.
Shen Xuan met his gaze and instantly realized that he was the one who had saved her.
"I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you last night. Please leave me your bank account number, and I will transfer all the medical expenses to you."
When facing other people, Shen Xuan was completely different from the humble and timid person she was in front of Li Siyuan.
Just like the bright and flamboyant woman she was before marriage.
Lu Yuchen didn't say anything, but he could tell that Shen Xuan wanted to distance herself from him.
He shook his head slightly and smiled, "No need. This is a hospital under the Lu family's name. In comparison, I would much rather become friends with Miss Shen."
Shen Xuan's expression turned slightly cold as she turned her head to examine the man in front of her.
Suddenly, she smiled slightly.
"No need, my husband doesn't like me having too much contact with men."
After she finished speaking, she tidied up.
He casually placed the business card on the bed, then picked up his bag and brushed past Lu Yucheng.
"Just contact my assistant directly for medical expenses."
When Shen Xuan fell from the mountain, he suffered internal injuries and even broke one of his ribs.
However, since the injury was not too serious, the doctor simply told her to observe and treat it first, without needing to take any major measures.
Shen Xuan didn't answer Li Siyuan's repeated calls and took a taxi home by herself.
Upon opening the door, the sight that greeted Shen Xuan left her stunned.
The decorations and paintings she used to furnish the room were all carelessly thrown on the living room floor.
Li Siyuan was sitting on the sofa reviewing documents when he heard the noise and turned to look at her.
He seemed to remember something, his eyes darkening: "Why didn't you answer the phone? Didn't I say I'd come pick you up?"
The accusatory and lecturing tone left Shen Xuan momentarily dazed, wondering if he had done something wrong to annoy the speaker.
Shen Xuan lowered her head, changed her shoes, and went inside.
"No need. If something else comes up on your way here, it will just waste our time."
Although it wasn't explicitly stated, both of them knew exactly what had happened last night.
Li Siyuan frowned: "You still have the energy to throw a tantrum at me? Looks like you had a pretty good night last night."
Shen Xuan remained silent.
Yes, I was unconscious in the hospital all night and didn't do anything. My wound was treated, so it wasn't too bad.
She didn't mention the pile of clutter on the floor and was about to go upstairs when she ran into the woman standing at the door of the room upstairs.
Han Xin was wearing a bathrobe, her hair still wet.
Shen Xuan was completely dumbfounded, not understanding what was going on.
Han Xin greeted her with a big smile.
"Hi."
Shen Xuan turned her head blankly and looked at Li Siyuan.
Li Siyuan stepped forward and explained, "Xiaoxin got drunk last night, so I brought her back to rest for the night and even let her take a shower."
Then, as if adding something superfluous, he added, "We didn't do anything; she slept in the guest room."
Was he sleeping in the guest room?
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Shen Xuan's eyes: "Then why did she come out of our room?"
Li Siyuan swallowed his words, but Han Xin spoke up, feeling wronged.
"I'm sorry, Miss Shen, I just wanted to borrow a piece of clothing. All my clothes got dirty yesterday, and I didn't want to trouble Si Yuan to buy some..."
She blinked, looking at the two of them cautiously, as if Shen Xuan was being unreasonable.
"What's there to explain to her?"
Li Siyuan interrupted her, his face full of displeasure.
"It's one thing that you didn't come home last night, but Xiaoxin just wanted to change her clothes. Why are you making such a fuss about it?"
He looked down at Shen Xuan with an air of superiority, his tone carrying a hint of bestowal: "You can use my card to buy a few more items later."
Shen Xuan held onto the stair railing, looking at the man and woman in front of her.
This one is her husband.
The other is the white moonlight in her husband's heart.
On the contrary, she seemed superfluous.
She chuckled softly, but her laughter only made Li Siyuan's expression grow increasingly unpleasant.
"I can get away with not coming home at night, but she threw my things away, and I can't even hold it against her... Li Siyuan, whose wife do you take me for?!"
Shen Xuan's eyes reddened, and she questioned him sharply:
“You said your mother’s belongings were lost on the mountain, so I spent the whole night searching for them in high heels, and ended up falling off the mountaintop,” she said, pointing to her ribs. “I even broke my ribs and injured my internal organs. If someone hadn’t happened to pass by and saved me, I might be frozen to death on the roadside by now!”
Li Siyuan's expression changed drastically.
"And what about you?!"
"You were laughing and joking with your buddies in those upscale clubs, casually putting the things you claimed to have lost on other women's wrists, and even when I called you, you and your friends were laughing at me!"
Shen Xuan gritted her teeth; every word felt like a knife cutting into her heart.
"Li Siyuan, this marriage wasn't something I forced, so why are you trying to push all the responsibility onto me?!"
Once the words were out, Shen Xuan could no longer hold back, and tears streamed down her face like a burst dam.
She truly loved Li Siyuan and longed to marry him.
However, this marriage was arranged after she proposed it, obtained Li Siyuan's consent, and received the approval of both families.
Why should he blame himself for not winning Han Xin's heart and for all the resentment he felt after marriage?
Before marriage, she was so proud, always the center of attention, whether in business operations or social settings.
Why, because of a momentary infatuation, was she trampled into the mire of marriage?
The past embarrassments caused by Li Siyuan flashed through her mind one by one, then collapsed, turning into sharp fragments that pierced her heart.
Inside the vast villa, only Shen Xuan's suppressed sobs echoed.
Li Siyuan was about to speak, wanting Shen Xuan to stop pretending.
But when the words reached his lips, he couldn't utter a single one.
Things I had never paid attention to before now seemed to have become excessive after she said that.
Li Siyuan didn't know how to respond, so he just stood quietly and watched silently.
until—
"Miss Shen, I never expected to make you so sad."
Han Xin pursed her lips, stepped down the stairs, and stood in front of Shen Xuan. "But please don't blame Si Yuan. Perhaps he just doesn't know how to love you yet."
Shen Xuan's eyes were blurry with tears, and in that instant, she felt that many things might be a misunderstanding of Han Xin.
However, the next moment, Han Xin, under the pretense of wiping away her tears, leaned close to her ear.
"All he knows is how to love me."
Before Shen Xuan could react to the sarcastic and playful words, Han Xin fell backward and crashed down the stairs.
