Don't meet me in your next life.

Chapter 169 She was just afraid

Upon hearing this, the butler's expression changed drastically.

"Young Master..."

He called out tentatively, but saw that Shen Che was expressionless and did not seem to be angry.

The butler breathed a slight sigh of relief and quickly reassured Yi Yi, "Then I'll go with you. Let's go now..."

"it is good."

He nodded to Yi and turned to walk out.

The butler took Shen Che's coat and followed him.

The Shen family cemetery is located in the suburbs and is an old architectural complex.

When Xiang Yi saw Shen Che's car parked next to the tombstone, the pain in her heart was somewhat eased.

She took a deep breath, forced a smile, bowed to the tombstone, and then got into the car.

"Young Madam, shouldn't we be leaving now?" the butler urged anxiously.

"Okay, let's go..."

Xiang Yi nodded, looking at the scenery receding into the distance outside the window, her expression somewhat dazed.

The car window was half-lowered, and the wind blowing in made her feel a little chilly.

She couldn't help but wrap her clothes tighter, press her head against the cold glass, and greedily breathe in the fresh air.

She looked out the car window and saw that Shen Che had gotten out of the car and was standing in front of the tombstone.

His silhouette looked so desolate and lonely...

"Young Master..." The butler looked at Shen Che with some concern.

"It's nothing." Shen Che's face was expressionless, and his voice was calm, yet it carried a suffocating chill.

Xiang Yi's sadness grew stronger.

Shen Che's father was a very serious person. He loved studying antique documents from various countries and even displayed many antique treasures in the museum.

It is said that this tomb is the tomb of the person he loved most, and that is why he has been guarding it for many years, coming here every year on this day.

Shen Che once told her that this grave was to commemorate the woman he loved most.

The woman he had loved for decades...

Xiang Yi closed her eyes, concealing the complex emotions hidden in them.

The car drove towards the central square of the city, where the nightlife was at its most vibrant, with dazzling lights and a decadent atmosphere.

Xiang Yi sat in the back seat, looking at the flashing neon lights outside the car window, somewhat lost.

She didn't know whether coming here today was the right or wrong thing to do.

Perhaps she came at the wrong time.

Shen Che looked very unhappy, but she didn't know what he was angry about...

Is it because she said she wanted to have his child?

But right now, they're just boyfriend and girlfriend.

Xiang Yi gave a bitter smile, feeling like she was about to cry.

She didn't want her tears to fall; she was just afraid...

What can she do if he refuses to accept it?

Xiang Yi took a deep breath, trying her best to suppress the grief in her heart, and slowly opened her eyes.

Outside the car window, the crowds were bustling and noisy, yet they could not obscure the tranquility and beauty of the city.

The car finally stopped in front of a villa. Xiang Yi looked up and around. The villa here was exactly the same as the one she had lived in.

The butler led her to a room, and as soon as the door was opened, a familiar scent of perfume wafted out.

It is a bedroom, decorated simply yet warmly.

"Young master, this is the young mistress's room. I've had the servants tidy it up for you. If you need anything, just let them know..." The butler finished speaking and then left.

Looking at the exquisite furnishings in the room, Xiang Yi was filled with mixed emotions.

Her room was fully furnished with a bed, wardrobe, desk, sofa, and everything else, all in colors she liked.

But what about Shen Che's room?

She couldn't help but look around the whole room, taking in all of this.

This is indeed her room, but she doesn't understand why Shen Che would choose another villa.

She remembered that the villa was quite close to here, and it had a housekeeper who cleaned it, so it shouldn't be covered in dust.

"Don't you want to leave?" Shen Che's icy voice rang out.

Xiang Yi was startled and quickly pulled herself out of her thoughts.

"No, no, I'm just a little sleepy, so I want to rest for a while."

After saying that, she walked to the bedside and lay down on the soft mattress.

Shen Che watched her movements, his eyes narrowed, and his expression grew increasingly gloomy.

He walked over and looked down at her.

"Sleep?" He scoffed, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "Are you sure you want to stay with me? Do you think I'd want a woman like you?"

"I...I wanted to help you take care of your child..."

Xiang Yi gritted her teeth and mustered her courage to speak.

"You want to take care of my child?" A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Che's eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.

“Yes.” Xiang Yi nodded firmly. “He’s six months old now and needs someone to take care of him.”

Shen Che stared at her stomach, then suddenly snorted coldly, "Are you really sure you can take care of him?"

Xiang Yi was taken aback.

“His constitution is special; most doctors wouldn't dare touch him,” Shen Che said with certainty. “You're his mother. Will you take good care of him?”

After he finished speaking, he leaned over, placed one hand on the edge of the bed, and gently lifted her chin with the other.

Xiang Yi was stunned, unsure how to respond.

She had never thought about this issue; all she knew was that she didn't want her child to suffer.

“Then I’ll give it a try.” She looked up at Shen Che, her gaze resolute.

“Mr. Shen…” Xiang Yi’s eyes instantly welled up with tears, and she choked up, unable to speak.

Shen Che's gaze remained fixed on her, as if he wanted to see right through her face.

Her eyes were misty, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.

Shen Che withdrew his hand, turned around, and strode away.

"Bang!" He slammed the door shut.

Hearing the door close, Xiang Yiyi could no longer hold back her tears, which fell one by one onto the pillow.

Shen Che's words pierced her heart like knives. She knew he didn't like her child, but she never imagined he could despise her to this extent...

He said she was a burden on his child...

She just wanted to protect their child.

Why do this...?

......

A black Mercedes-Benz was driving slowly down the street.

Inside the car, a thin layer of anger surfaced in Shen Che's eyes.

Xiang Yi actually dared to say that she could take good care of his child!

Was she joking with him?

Shen Che snorted coldly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes!

He wanted to see who was lying and who was worthy of being a mother!

-

The next day.

Early in the morning, Xiang Yi woke up from her sleep.

She opened her sleepy eyes and rubbed her temples.

"Ouch!" Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her forehead, and she cried out in pain. Then, everything went dark.

"Mr. Shen! I...I feel so dizzy..."

Xiang Yi tried to sit up, but found that her lower back was sore and she couldn't move.

She drank too much last night, and now she has a splitting headache.

"What should I do?" She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, constantly tapping her head.
