After the divorce, the crazy CEO knocked on his ex-wife's door every night.
Chapter 261: Deeply Trapped
Shen Xuan glanced at Li Shulian indifferently, his gaze sweeping across her face like water before slowly moving away. His tone was flat and emotionless, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
“I am not here today to argue or cause trouble with you. You are my elder and also Si Yuan’s mother, and I have always respected you very much. So please rest assured that no matter what happens, I will not do anything to embarrass you.”
“We lived together as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for three years. Perhaps we didn’t have a deep relationship, but I believe I fulfilled my responsibilities to the best of my ability. What I want to ask is, I don’t understand why you’ve become like this recently? Do you really want your son to suffer more and more because of this?”
Upon hearing this, Li Shulian couldn't help but sneer, her eyebrows furrowing and her expression unusually cold. "Heh, let me be blunt! I will absolutely not agree to you taking someone else's child and being with Si Yuan again! Shen Xuan, don't you think what you've done has utterly disgraced the Shen family?"
"You've even trampled on the Li family's reputation like this? If you really want to remarry Si Yuan, it's not entirely impossible, but the premise is that you must get rid of the child in your belly immediately. Only then can I barely accept you as my daughter-in-law."
After these cold words were spoken, Han Xin, who was standing to the side, was stunned.
The relaxed and cheerful expression on her face faded, replaced by a complex and unreadable look.
Her pupils contracted sharply, and her mouth opened slightly, clearly because Li Shulian's words had touched on some sensitive topics, causing a great ripple in her heart.
Shen Xuan slowly turned her head, her eyes clear and firm, her gaze falling directly on Li Shulian without the slightest hesitation.
Her tone carried an undeniable authority: "My son has already accepted the child's identity. What are you making such a fuss about? Whether the child is Si Yuan's bloodline or not will be clear once the child is born. You can accept Weiwei, a child who isn't Si Yuan's, so why can't you accept the fact that I'm with him? Is it simply because no one in my family can stand up for me anymore?"
Every word she uttered was like a sharp knife, piercing straight to the heart.
She glanced coldly at Li Shulian, her eyes filled with disdain and contempt, as if the other party was nothing more than an insignificant nobody, not worth her time and energy to argue with.
Her expression was extremely cold, as if all her patience had been exhausted, and all that remained was disgust and contempt for Li Shulian's behavior.
However, Li Shulian did not back down. Instead, she reached out and grabbed Shen Xuan's wrist tightly, trying to stop her from leaving.
This action completely enraged Shen Xuan, and her face instantly flushed with anger, like an uncontrollable volcanic eruption.
Without hesitation, she forcefully shook off Li Shulian's hand, her movements swift and decisive, without any hesitation.
Then, she raised her head, her gaze sharp as knives as she glared at the servants and butlers standing around her, raising her voice considerably and almost shouting as she gave her orders.
"Keep an eye on the old lady! She's so old, how can you let her wander around like that? If she upsets the master, you'll all be the ones who suffer! All of you, watch yourselves and don't cause any more trouble!"
Li Shulian was so angry that her face turned red, the veins on her neck bulged, and her chest heaved violently.
Only after Shen Xuan's figure completely disappeared from sight did she finally explode, berating everyone around her one by one, from servants to entourage, leaving no one unscathed, and even the air seemed to become scorching.
She vented her resentment and anger on innocent people, but the resentment deep in her heart grew stronger.
On the other side, after leaving the Li family's gate, Shen Xuan went straight into the car parked to the side.
Once the heavy car doors closed, all the noise from the outside world was shut out, and the atmosphere inside the carriage immediately became quiet.
The man in the driver's seat turned his head slightly and glanced at Shen Xuan in the passenger seat, a hint of worry showing between his brows.
He hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Miss Shen, are you alright? What happened earlier... won't affect you, will it?"
Shen Xuan responded with a faint "It's nothing," her voice low but revealing an undeniable weariness and indifference.
Although she said she was fine, her face was noticeably pale, as if she had just experienced a great deal of exertion.
He gently lifted his slender fingers and pressed them against his temples, slowly massaging them in an attempt to relieve the discomfort caused by his headache.
She kept her lips tightly closed, her expression complex, and a hint of suppressed emotion flashed in her eyes.
Thinking of the escalating conflict between her and Li Shulian, Shen Xuan couldn't help but sigh deeply.
This mother-in-law, who is now in name only, has become a nightmare in my life. How am I supposed to face her in the future?
Every confrontation put her under immense pressure, making her feel incredibly nervous.
Not to mention that utterly detestable Han Xin, who was still eyeing her covetously behind her back and making things difficult for her at every turn, which only made things worse.
Ever since she stepped into Li Siyuan's world, her life has been like being caught in a huge whirlpool, every day is chaotic and the more she struggles, the deeper she sinks into it.
Thinking about all this, Shen Xuan felt a tightness in her chest, a mixture of emotions that made her feel overwhelmed, and for a moment she even doubted whether her choice was right or wrong.
The car had only been driving for a short while, and the road ahead was still empty and quiet.
Suddenly, a car appeared out of nowhere from around the corner and blocked their path.
The car seemed to arrive abruptly, without slowing down at all, as if it had been deliberately stopped there to block them.
Upon seeing this, the driver was immediately terrified. He quickly grabbed the steering wheel and slammed on the brakes with all his might, the tires screeching against the ground.
Even so, the front of their car almost collided with the rear of the car in front, and the atmosphere instantly became extremely tense.
The man frowned, sensing something was wrong. He immediately unbuckled his seatbelt, opened the car door, and got out to see what had happened.
However, before he could even take a step and stand firmly, the car door suddenly opened, and several burly men jumped out with lightning speed.
These people moved swiftly and aggressively, without saying a word, raising their sticks and smashing them down on the man's head and face.
Before the man could even react, he was struck by a sharp pain, lost consciousness, and collapsed heavily to the ground.
Sitting in the car, Shen Xuan quickly regained her composure after the series of events that had just transpired.
