Pei Sichen stood there quietly, looking at Shen Xiao who was lying on the bed.

Her face was pale, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes. She clutched the quilt tightly, guarding him as if she were guarding against a savage beast, and did not dare to let go easily.

She was so afraid of him.

Pei Sichen's heart seemed to be stabbed, and he took a gentle breath. When he looked at Shen Xiao again, his eyes softened a little.

"I have something to ask you."

"you say."

Shen Xiao calmed down a little and barely controlled herself to look at him calmly.

Although he disturbed her sleep, he didn't directly pounce on her to vent his anger like before, and she was very satisfied that he didn't let her endure the pain.

"What did you investigate when you followed Bai Cheng?"

Pei Sichen asked softly, barely keeping his face from looking ugly, and sighed quietly, "Just tell me."

After the words fell, Shen Xiao closed her eyes tightly. How long had she been waiting for this sentence?

In the past, he had never listened to her inner thoughts. No matter what evidence she found, he never took it to heart. He just told her to go away coldly.

He didn't trust her. In his heart, she was just a deceitful snake and scorpion.

But unfortunately, his trust came a little late.

"No."

Shen Xiao bit his lip gently and did not look into his eyes.

Seeing her reaction like this and knowing that he had hurt her before, Pei Sichen suppressed the violent anger in his heart and allowed himself to talk to her calmly.

"Speak and I will listen."

Shen Xiao was indifferent.

He waited patiently for a while, then simply sat next to her, put his hands on both sides of her head, stared into her eyes, trying to look into her heart.

"What happened when you followed Bai Cheng that day?"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Xiao's face suddenly turned ashen.

"Don't ask, it's okay."

She ignored the faces that made her tremble all over. Thinking of her experience and the despair she felt when she was surrounded by gangsters and taken away, the smell of blood filled her mouth.

Forget it, forget it.

Shen Xiao didn't say anything no matter what, and her lips were pursed as tight as a clam shell. Pei Sichen felt irritated, but when he saw her pale face, he couldn't do anything.

Finally, he threw the tea cup on the bedside to the ground.

"Boom!"

The cup fell to pieces on the carpet. Wang Ma and others listened carefully outside, not daring to come in and clean it up.

After finishing smashing things, Pei Sichen stood up and glanced at Shen Xiao, who was still lying quietly on the bed, twitched the corner of his mouth again, and strode away.

Just don't tell him, he will find someone to find out!

Pei Sichen left angrily, and Wang Ma and others hurried in to clean up the mess on the ground. She glanced at the pale Shen Xiao lying on the bed, and Wang Ma couldn't help but sigh.

"Madam, please listen to my advice. Your husband has a tough temper. You must learn to be gentler and follow his wishes, so as not to cause trouble..."

She didn't continue, but the meaning of her words was obvious.

Shen laughed silently and covered his head tightly with the quilt.

Why doesn’t she understand what Wang Ma said?

It's just that she is also stubborn and stubborn. Now that she has identified with him, she will give him her heart. But if he doesn't believe her and cherish her, she doesn't have to rush to give him away.

She was leaving anyway.

The engagement of more than two years has expired, and Shen Rou has been released from prison. It is time to give up the position of the eldest mistress of the Pei family.

Shen Xiao smiled bitterly, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Pei Sichen, goodbye.

Pei Sichen stepped on the accelerator all the way and rushed back to Huayue Group frantically. There was a pile of documents waiting for him to process on the office table, and he threw himself into work.

"Shen Xiao, just wait!"

The next morning, Pei Sichen finished presiding over Huayue Group's weekly meeting as usual and announced that Shen Rou would come in as his assistant before returning to the office.

He continued working calmly. Letting Shen Rou come in to work was something he had already done, but he just announced it in advance.

But he didn't expect that the company would completely explode.

After the meeting ended, everyone walked in twos and threes, discussing the decision that Pei Sichen had just mentioned.

"Mr. Pei actually wants to use a woman as his assistant. Doesn't he care about Mrs. Shen?"

"What do you care about when you have to use it?"

"That's right, the relationship between Mr. Pei and his wife is not good. I heard that this assistant is a relative of my wife, a sister, right? Oh, now the company is very lively."

Everyone's comments were heart-wrenching. Shen Xiao took a deep breath and stood shaky on the spot.

It turned out that he had already prepared a big gift for her.

Everyone in the Huayue Group knew about her relationship with Pei Sichen. Although Pei Sichen was famous in the past two years, he had never been close to other female colleagues in the group.

But this time, he openly announced to everyone that he wanted Shen Rou to be his assistant, as if he was stabbing her in the heart in front of everyone.

Pei Sichen, you are so cruel.

Shen Xiao gently clenched his hand, stumbled back to the office, and closed the door heavily.

Shen Rou is going to join the company, and she can't even stay in the company anymore.

The office door was closed tightly, Shen Xiao could not be seen at all, and even the blinds on the windows were all pulled down by her, blocking everyone's inquiring sight.

Several people in the marketing department looked at each other, and deputy manager Huang Die couldn't help coughing lightly.

"Tell me, does Manager Shen not take this matter to heart at all?"

"Who knows, no matter how Mr. Pei takes care of women, she is now a veritable CEO's wife."

The investigator whispered: "Have you forgotten how Mr. Pei and Su Mi'er got into trouble in the first place? They were a couple and there were so many ambiguous news, so it's better to just let it go."

After hearing her words, everyone nodded.

When the ambiguous news about Su Mier and Pei Sichen hit the air, they all thought that Shen Xiao would not be able to hold the position of CEO's wife for much longer.

But in the end, Shen Xiao had the last laugh!

On the contrary, Su Mier doesn't see many people now.

"But it seems different this time. I heard that it was not my wife who was going to marry Mr. Pei, but my sister Shen Rou. Now that Mr. Pei has brought someone to the company, he may be divorcing his wife."

Huang Die curled his lips slightly, "No matter what, she is the daughter of their old Shen family. Let's just wait and see the fun."

The staff started gossiping again, and everyone's discussion became louder and louder.

Shen Xiao, who was sitting in the office, listened to every word.

The sound insulation effect of the office is average. How much gossip can be blocked by just a piece of transparent glass?

Feeling groggy, she simply closed her eyes and lay on the table.

Forget it, let's get some sleep.

When you feel uncomfortable, take a nap and put all your worries away.
