After the divorce, the crazy CEO knocked on his ex-wife's door every night.
Chapter 239 Don’t go too far
She then carefully prepared another bottle of medicine, dissolved it in water to make a suitable dosage form, and then gently handed it to her grandmother beside her.
Just then, someone knocked on the door behind them.
Her brows furrowed immediately. She quickly covered her grandmother with the blanket, put down the bowl and spoon in her hand, and got up to open the door.
A man in a charcoal gray suit stood at the door, looking energetic and standing there with his posture upright.
At a glance, Shen Xuan could tell that the person was clearly meticulously groomed, and his impeccable appearance contrasted sharply with the simple surroundings.
Shen Xuan was stunned for a moment, and when she turned her gaze to him, she seemed particularly sensitive.
Her hands clenched into fists, and a sense of unease rose within her, as if something was about to happen.
What are you doing here?
She looked up at the other person, asked in surprise, her tone full of wariness.
However, after only a few days apart, Li Siyuan seemed somewhat unfamiliar, as if the two of them had not spoken for a long time.
Li Siyuan turned to the side, stood there with his head held high, and did not answer her question directly.
His silence was like a dark cloud, gradually making it hard to breathe.
Several people suddenly appeared behind him, their faces filled with indifference and ruthlessness. They forced their way into the living room and pushed the old man in the wheelchair out.
This sudden action greatly shocked Shen Xuan.
Shen Xuan was furious inside, but she tried her best to remain calm on the surface: "Where are you taking my grandmother?"
Although her voice was steady, it couldn't hide the slight tremor within it.
Faced with such brutal behavior, she felt incredibly angry and helpless.
"Before your grandfather passed away, he entrusted your grandmother to the Li family, Shen Xuan. Why did you take her away without saying a word? What exactly are you trying to do?"
Li Siyuan's cold voice echoed in the air, carrying an unquestionable authority.
Although his words were concise, every word seemed to emphasize his attitude towards the incident.
Shen Xuan sneered, smoothed her hair behind her ear, and a hint of sadness appeared on her face.
“When did I need your permission to take my grandmother home? Li Siyuan, I’ve already conceded so much, don’t go too far.”
Her tone was gentle yet resolute, as if she were stating her position and no longer willing to compromise.
Li Siyuan turned to look at her, his tone gentle yet provocative: "If I don't go too far, will you come back with me?"
Shen Xuan chuckled softly, tidied the stray strands of hair beside her ear with her hand again, but the expression on her face became increasingly complicated.
"Come back with me? Will I still have a home? Where is my home?"
Her voice was low and mournful, and her eyes revealed an indescribable sense of loneliness.
“Shen Xuan, I’ve already humbled myself to come and take you back. I hope you can give me some face. I really can’t stand by and watch your grandmother suffer in this place any longer.”
His tone was tinged with helplessness and anger, "Come back or not, it's up to you. Anyway, Miss Shen has plenty of backers, so you don't need me."
After saying that, he took a key out of his pocket and casually tossed it on the coffee table under her gaze.
The key bounced a few times on the coffee table before stopping. Shen Xuan's eyes followed the key's movements closely and realized that it was the key to his car and the spare key to his house. His actions were simply to tell her that his attitude had been made very clear.
Then came a heavy thud, which came when she was completely unprepared.
He flung open the door and slammed it shut, leaving only a silent room filled with lingering anger.
In the blink of an eye, she was left standing alone in the huge room.
At that moment, Shen Xuan instinctively clenched her fists, her nails seemingly digging into the flesh of her palms.
She knew in her heart that he had endured her indifference and hurt many times in order to save the relationship, but he still chose to step in and solve the problem for her grandmother.
Even so, he was still very disappointed with some of his decisions.
Suppressing her complex emotions, she quickly gritted her teeth, trying her best to keep the tears from falling, and instead began to pack some daily necessities.
Before long, carrying her suitcase, she walked to the door. Without lingering, she went straight into the garage, started the car, and drove towards her hometown.
When the car tires rolled over the last ray of light under the last streetlamp, it was already the dead of night, with everything quiet and the moonlight shining brightly.
At this very moment, the villa was still brightly lit, and several new faces were busy inside and outside the halls, making the entire mansion even more vibrant.
The car slowly came to a stop. She took a deep breath to calm her turbulent emotions before getting out of the car.
What comes into view is everything that is both familiar and slightly distant.
After looking around for a moment, he quickly stepped inside.
The room was quiet, with no one else except the person sitting on the sofa.
He was fiddling with his electronic devices with his head down and didn't immediately notice the footsteps that had just entered the room.
Because of driving in the same posture for a long time, Shen Xuan felt soreness in her limbs and a slight discomfort in her abdomen.
But none of that matters; the important thing is to see my loved ones first.
"Excuse me..." her voice trembled slightly, "How is my grandmother now?"
Upon hearing this, the waiter standing nearby quickly replied, "The old lady is in good health and is resting upstairs. I believe you must be hungry, Miss. We have prepared a hot meal for you in the restaurant. Please come and enjoy it as soon as possible."
"You're welcome."
She smiled softly, her voice like a gentle breeze across a lake, soft yet warm. Then she quickly walked in from outside, her steps light and swift. She didn't pay any attention to the changes in Li Siyuan's expression, nor did she linger for a second. She walked straight past him and went upstairs.
The air upstairs seemed to still carry the warmth of her departure, making one recall her soft laughter just moments before.
Li Siyuan's hand trembled slightly, as if it had been gently touched. He then slowly raised his eyelids, his eyes revealing a faint weariness and confusion. His gaze followed her figure.
Looking in the direction projected from the phone screen, I saw that slender figure gradually disappear from my sight, eventually vanishing completely into the darkness behind the corner of the stairs, leaving only a lonely and resolute silhouette.
His lips twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak. For some reason, an indescribable melancholy welled up in his heart.
This feeling suddenly enveloped his heart like a dark cloud, causing him to fall into a brief daze.
