On the day of his whirlwind wedding, the heir to a wealthy family stood up!

……

It was 2 a.m. when Shen Yanchuan returned to his apartment. He opened his phone, scrolled through the messages he had exchanged with Su Chenxi, and savored every word.

Upon seeing the last sentence, he couldn't help but feel guilty. Wasn't he the one who had caused her to be so exhausted?

This time, he deliberately caused an accident so that he couldn't tell her the reason beforehand, leaving her to bear the worry.

"I promise I won't make you worry about me anymore." In the quiet living room, Shen Yanchuan rubbed his tired brows and eyes, Su Chenxi's bright smile appearing in his mind. It was as if only thinking of this woman could eliminate all the weariness in his heart and fill him with energy and strength.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Shen Yanchuan's car arrived only ten minutes earlier than the maid who was on her way to work. When the maid saw him arrive, she asked curiously, "Mr. Shen, who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Miss Su Chenxi."

"Huh! Miss Su didn't sleep here last night! I remember she left around nine o'clock yesterday."

Shen Yanchuan asked in surprise, "She left last night?"

"Yes, I saw her car leave with my own eyes. Miss Su didn't come back to sleep when I was cleaning up at 11 p.m. last night," the maid said.

Shen Yanchuan took out his phone to look at Su Chenxi's last message, which was sent at 10:10. It seemed that she was not at the Gu residence when she sent the message.

Then where would she be?

Shen Yanchuan quickly thought of a place: her small apartment.

Did this girl go to sleep alone in the small apartment?

Shen Yanchuan started the car and drove out of the Gu residence, heading straight for Su Chenxi's small apartment.

In less than twenty minutes, his car arrived at Su Chenxi's apartment complex. He used facial recognition to enter the complex and went to her building, pressing the button for the 18th floor.

Entering the secret, the door clicked open. Shen Yanchuan gently pushed open the door and was surprised to see a slender figure curled up on the sofa. Who else could it be but Su Chenxi?

Then, he saw the bottle of red wine on the table, and the empty wine glass in front of her. Shen Yanchuan's breath hitched. This girl stayed here drinking alone last night?

What happened to her?

Shen Yanchuan walked lightly to the sofa, took off his suit jacket and covered her with it. The air was warm, but it was still unusually cold.

"What a silly girl, why don't you sleep in the bed?" Shen Yanchuan murmured a reproachful remark, squatting down and gazing tenderly at the girl's sleeping face.

As he watched, the man couldn't control himself any longer. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, then gently brushed his high nose against hers, feeling her delicate breath.

Su Chenxi was half asleep when she felt short stubble prickling her face. She quickly opened her eyes, and suddenly, a handsome face appeared before her.

scare!

Su Chenxi was so startled that she sat up abruptly, staring in astonishment at the man who had appeared in her house so early in the morning. "You... why are you here?"

Shen Yanchuan reached out and gently pinched the tip of her nose. "Why did you lie to me last night and say you were at the Gu family's house? Why did you sleep here instead?"

Su Chenxi quickly tidied her messy long hair, saw the wine glasses on the table, reached out to tidy them up and walked to the living room. She then took the half-empty bottle of red wine to the kitchen before coming out.

"I just didn't want you to worry, so I lied. How about you? Did you sleep well last night?" Su Chenxi asked as she tidied up. She didn't dare to look at him because her eyes were already wet with tears.

The scene between him and that mysterious girl last night was still piercing her heart. This man must have been with her last night!

"Go back to your room and get some more sleep. I'll tidy up," Shen Yanchuan said in a low voice, stopping her.

Su Chenxi stubbornly refused to listen and continued to do things she didn't understand. Sunlight shone into her eyes, and her tears reflected a crystal-clear light. She turned her back, pursed her red lips, and blinked rapidly to hold back her tears.

"What are your chances of recanting your testimony?" Su Chenxi asked, changing the subject.

"One hundred percent hope." Shen Yanchuan smiled confidently.

Su Chenxi breathed a sigh of relief and sniffed, saying, "That's good, I was worried!" After saying that, she went to the restroom, and the man reached out to put his arm around her waist, wanting to hug her.

Su Chenxi pushed his hand away, saying, "I need to brush my teeth and wash my face."

"I don't mind, come here, let me hug you first." After the man finished speaking, he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and pressed her into his arms. Su Chenxi struggled a little with her back to him, "Let me go first, I need to go wash my face."

Shen Yanchuan was afraid that she would hurt herself by struggling, so he let go of her hand, and a look of surprise flashed across his handsome face.

How come overnight, this girl won't even let him hug her anymore?

Su Chenxi was brushing her teeth diligently in the bathroom. Looking at her reddened eyes in the mirror, a sudden wave of grievance washed over her, and tears immediately rolled down her cheeks. She quickly lowered her head to rinse her mouth, grabbed a towel from the side, and covered her eyes tightly with it, hiding her tears.

She heard footsteps outside the bathroom door. "Honey, open the door, I want to come in too. I need to shave, my beard has grown long."

"Wait a minute," Su Chenxi replied, quickly wringing out some cold water and applying it to her swollen eyes. Only after she suppressed her grievances did she open the door, where Shen Yanchuan's tall figure made the bath towel feel very tight.

Just as Su Chenxi was about to leave, the man pulled her into his arms. "Help me."

Su Chenxi wasn't in the mood today and pushed him away, saying, "Do it yourself."

"My wife shaved even cleaner." The man held her tightly, preventing her from leaving.

Su Chenxi had shaved him before, so this man started clinging to her.

"My wife is the best," the man said, leaning down to whisper in her ear with a smile.

Su Chenxi could only nod. Last time, she hadn't bought him an automatic razor, but an old-fashioned razor that came with foam. At that time, Shen Yanchuan didn't mind and let her shave like that.

The man leaned down, bringing his handsome face close to hers. His deep eyes, beneath thick, sword-like eyebrows, gazed at her tenderly, and the sensual hump on his high, straight nose added to his allure.

Su Chenxi felt uncomfortable under his gaze. She took out the shaving foam and applied it evenly to his chin. Then she took the razor blade and carefully began to shave from the side of his face. Where the blade passed, the man's skin looked clean and refreshed.

The man closed his eyes slightly and obediently moved his face to adjust the angle so she could continue scraping. Su Chenxi didn't dare to be careless, afraid of accidentally scratching his skin.

"From now on, I'm going to enjoy my wife's exclusive services." Shen Yanchuan smiled.

"Don't move around," Su Chenxi scolded him, somewhat annoyed.

"Okay, I won't move." The man closed his eyes, letting her small hand move his cheek.

Su Chenxi carefully cleaned him up. For some hard-to-shave areas, the man took the shaving blade and shaved them off himself. Su Chenxi washed her hands, and finally, tears streamed down her face.

Because she thought of that playful and cute girl from last night, who also had that right!

I shaved him, and he looked at me with tender eyes, a doting smile, and gave me a hug and a kiss.

Maybe she has more of him now.

Su Chenxi rushed into the room, quickly grabbed a tissue to wipe away her tears, and took a deep breath. She had thought it over last night; even if she wanted to argue with him, now wasn't the time.

Because he was about to face an important lawsuit, even if they couldn't end up together, she hoped he would be safe and sound.

Therefore, at this crucial juncture, she had to control all her emotions and encourage and support him to win the case.

Even if I don't love him, I don't want to hurt him.
