After the divorce, the crazy CEO knocked on his ex-wife's door every night.

The man's lips curled into a smile as he braced his hands on the edge of the sofa. She pressed her lower lip tightly together, meeting his cold gaze, and said calmly, "What, trying to cause trouble again? When you're with me, are you thinking about Han Xin? Or do you simply mistake me for her?"

Li Siyuan stared at her, his eyes sharp, as if trying to see into her heart.

"Shen Xuan, you are not allowed to mention her in front of me!" he coldly commanded.

She responded with a sneer: "What, you can't say anything just because you did it?"

She was even a little curious about how he had cleverly avoided the question when Han Xin pressed him about the wedding date.

"Li Siyuan, don't tell me you slept with me because you couldn't face Han Xin?"

His brows were furrowed, forming the shape of the Chinese character "川" (river).

"Shen Xuan, are you looking for a lesson? Do you want to repeat last night's scene? Hmm?"

Yes, she definitely needs to be taught a lesson.

If he hadn't left some marks on her, would she have relied on her innocence to treat any man casually?

Thinking of this, he quickly lifted her chin, his tone icy: "Seeing how hard you're trying to distance yourself from me and run off to another man, I feel you've failed as Mrs. Li for the past three years. Outsiders might think I'm lacking something."

Then, he kissed her lower lip deeply.

Shen Xuan quickly pushed him away, trying to break free from his restraints.

He quickly stepped forward and pushed her back onto the bed.

Her voice was muffled as he pressed her head firmly against the pillow.

His movements only slowed down when she stopped struggling.

As she gradually calmed down, his heart also calmed down.

About half an hour later, he got off her, forcefully pulled the blanket over her, and covered her completely.

The door slammed shut, and he walked to another room and went into the bathroom.

The room quickly returned to its usual tranquility.

Shen Xuan lay quietly on the bed, her long hair obscuring her face.

She slowly brushed her hair aside and struggled to sit up in bed.

Her face was slightly pale. She silently put on her clothes and stared ahead expressionlessly.

When Li Siyuan entered the room, he found that Shen Xuan was no longer in the living room.

The room was filled with books scattered all over the floor and miscellaneous items piled up everywhere.

Her personal belongings were scattered haphazardly in every corner, and even her laptop was left on the sofa.

Li Siyuan's brows furrowed. She had once again left him silently, disregarding even her computer and personal belongings, and resolutely departed.

……

Time passed, and three months later.

Inside a residence in Guishun City.

She leaned blankly against the window, enjoying the warm sunlight.

A message notification suddenly popped up on the table at my feet.

She opened it casually.

It was a text message from Cheng Lu.

"Xiao Xuan, I'm on my way. Get ready, how about we have dinner together tonight?"

She quickly replied, "Okay! Drive safely."

It takes at least three hours to drive here from Jiangcheng, so it's truly rare that she made a special trip to accompany me.

There was a knock at the door. She looked up, smiled, and said, "Isn't the company busy today?"

Lu Yuchen put his hands in his pockets, walked into the house, and then sat down on the chair next to her.

"It's alright. I have a project in Jing'an recently, so I came to take a look and also to see you."

Shen Xuan gently pressed her forehead, her gaze fixed on the window, her expression slightly grave.

Lu Yuchen noticed the melancholy in her eyes and asked with concern, "Do you want to go back to Jiangcheng?"

She shook her head, hugged her knees, and looked somewhat vacant. "I don't want to."

That place left her with only painful memories, not beautiful ones.

Lu Yuchen gently held her hand and comforted her, "Once things are over in the next couple of days, I'll help you contact the nursing home here and find a way to bring your grandmother over. That way, you might feel more at ease."

Shen Xuan was stunned for a moment. Looking at the tenderness in his eyes, she was inexplicably touched and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

"Thank you, Yuchen!"

He pulled her into his arms, and she nestled quietly against him.

Three months ago, when she left the Li family, she had almost given up everything. Wearing only his coat, she appeared in front of the Li family's door in a daze and met Yan Anxun.

He took her away and handed her over to Cheng Lu, while Lu Yucheng took her away from Jiangcheng overnight to escape the world here.

Unexpectedly, the avoidance lasted for three months.

At 5 p.m., when Cheng Lu arrived at her residence, she had already changed her clothes.

Shen Xuan seemed to have returned to her old self, linking arms with Cheng Lu and chatting non-stop.

Cheng Lu mentioned that since she left, the studio has been under Li Siyuan's watchful eye. In order to prevent Li Siyuan from discovering her whereabouts and harassing her, they had no choice but to move the studio's operations online and use anonymous IPs.

Even communication was done through other people's accounts.

After all, finding her would have been an easy task for Li Siyuan.

Cheng Lu accompanied her to the meal. The dishes on the table were plentiful, but there was nothing she really wanted to eat.

Perhaps due to recent stress, her appetite has changed.

She looked at the food on the table and felt nauseous.

She stood up, feeling dizzy, nodded slightly to the people around her, and then headed to the restroom.

She gagged for a while by the sink, but apart from a few mouthfuls of bitter water, there was really nothing left to vomit.

She looked up at herself in the mirror and found that her face had become much paler.

As she came out of the restroom, she noticed a film crew shooting a scene in the corner next to her. The plot was about the male lead having an affair with his mistress at a restaurant behind his wife's back, which was discovered by his wife and sparked a dispute on set.

She curiously peered over and her gaze fell on the crowd. To her surprise, she discovered that the lead actor in the TV series was An Zihao, and Han Xin was also on set, busy assisting the crew.

Both of them were so engrossed in filming that they were completely unaware of her presence.

She looked away, turned around and walked to the other side, found her private room, and sat down again.

Cheng Lu and Lu Yuchen chatted casually, their understanding between them evident.

Shen Xuan sat there, only managing a few bites of food before she could eat no more.

Cheng Lu asked her in confusion, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

She replied, "It's nothing. I'm probably just feeling a bit tired because I've been under too much pressure lately and haven't been resting well. I'll feel fine after a rest!"

She wiped her nose, recalling her experience three months ago, and still felt a lingering fear.

Lu Yuchen reached out and touched her forehead, feeling that it was somewhat warm.

"Your forehead feels a little hot, could you have a fever?"

Cheng Lu bit her chopsticks, noticing that Shen Xuan's expression was off. Recalling the scene three months ago when she appeared at the door in a disheveled state, she couldn't help but feel nervous.

"Xiao Xuan, has your period started yet?"

Shen Xuan was stunned for a moment, and after calculating the time, it seemed that she hadn't had her period for two whole months.

So, this is...

Are you pregnant?

"Could it be that unlucky?" Her heart suddenly raced.

Seeing the look of surprise on her face, Cheng Lu roughly guessed what had happened.
