"Why are you so stubborn?" Xu Qing couldn't help but sigh.
That woman Su Yuxi is so arrogant! Apart from her good looks, I really don’t know what Mu Bai likes about her!
"Mom, it's not that I'm stubborn, it's just that all my feelings are invested in Su Yuxi. If I don't get anything in return, I won't give in."
Having said that, Xu Qing couldn't say anything else. She said such words to Su Yuxi, Su Yuxi would probably hate her very much.
Su Yuxi came home from get off work early in the evening, and her mother prepared a sumptuous dinner for the two children.
"Grandma, the food you cook is delicious. I will never go to Uncle Pei's house again. I will always live at grandma's house." Lele said while eating.
"Eat well and don't talk." Su Yuxi gave him a piece of braised pork.
"Keke, do you want to sleep with mommy or grandma today?" Su Yuxi asked with a smile. Since the two children were kidnapped, they have been following her at night. Occasionally she works overtime, and the children's parents take care of them.
Fall asleep.
"Well, then I'll sleep with mommy today and grandma tomorrow."
"Okay, then you can warm up Mommy's bed first. Mommy will come over to sleep with you after taking a bath."
Su Yuxi briefly washed herself. It was still early, so she lay on the bed and read stories to the two children.
As they talked, the child fell asleep in her arms.
"Go to sleep, honey, Mommy is always here." Su Yuxi kissed them and turned off the bedside lamp.
It was still early, and Su Yuxi didn't feel sleepy at all. She wanted to take a look at her phone, but she was afraid of waking up the child, so she stayed in bed trying to get sleepy.
I lay in bed for an hour and couldn't fall asleep.
You won't have insomnia tonight, will you?
Su Yuxi picked up her phone and set it to night mode.
There are many unanswered messages on my phone, most of which are work-related.
Su Yuxi finished replying one by one, leaving only Pei Mubai's message unprocessed.
"Xixi, is the child asleep?"
"Xixi, I want to say a few words to you. I'm at the door of your house now, and the security guard won't let me in."
"Xixi, are you asleep?" The message was sent more than an hour ago. She should have been taking a bath at that time. She didn't look at her phone after taking a bath and kept coaxing her child to sleep.
It's been more than an hour, Pei Mubai should have left early, right?
It was such a cold weather, and he was not a fool to wait outside for so long.
Su Yuxi thought for a while and edited the message, but did not send it out for a long time.
Is it necessary for her to keep in touch with Pei Mubai? His mother said that, and she really couldn't calm down her mood, and she didn't want to see Pei Mubai.
Su Yuxi tossed and turned in bed but couldn't fall asleep. She was afraid of affecting her children, so she simply went to the study room.
The study room has a panoramic floor-to-ceiling window, so you can just see the outside.
She saw a car parked outside her yard. If she saw it correctly, it should be Pei Mubai's car.
It's so late and he's still waiting outside?
Su Yuxi didn't know what he was going to say, so she struggled for a long time before putting on her clothes and going out.
Pei Mubai waited outside for almost two hours, but Su Yuxi did not reply to his message or come out.
The housekeeper advised him to wait in the car, but he refused and insisted on waiting outside.
His body had been seriously injured, how could it withstand such a cold?
The housekeeper felt very distressed and reminded in a low voice: "Sir, let's go home first. Miss Su must have gone to bed long ago."
Pei Mubai shook his head: "No, she is not sleeping. The light is still on in her study, but she just doesn't want to see me."
Pei Mubai coughed a few times and felt a throbbing pain in his chest.
"Uncle Zhang, you said that I am so humble in front of her. What else does she want from me?" Pei Mubai's voice was full of sadness.
"Sir, Miss Su probably doesn't even know what you have done for her."
"Even if she knew, she was still heartless and refused to look at me again."
"Sir, it's so cold, let's go home first." The housekeeper noticed that Pei Mubai's body began to tremble.
"Go home. She won't see me. There's no point in me staying here." Before Pei Mubai left, he took another look at the light in her study.
The lights have been turned off, Su Yuxi should be ready to sleep.
He was so humble that he wanted to explain to her and comfort her, but Su Yuxi refused to give him a chance. He didn't know if there was any point in persisting.
Su Yuxi came downstairs with her clothes on. She didn't even dare to turn on the light for fear of waking her mother. She was also cautious when going down the stairs.
When she walked to the gate, she saw a car speeding away.
It was too dark at night, so she couldn't see the license plate number clearly. She looked around but couldn't find Pei Mubai's car.
She was in the study just now, maybe she saw it wrong.
She and Pei Mubai had no fate after all.
Pei Mubai was admitted to the hospital again.
"Lu Musheng, please don't contact Su Yuxi this time. I want to heal myself!"
He didn't want Lu Musheng to go to Su Yuxi and trouble Su Yuxi every time he fell ill.
His world must slowly get used to being without Su Yuxi.
"Okay, no contact! Su Yuxi probably doesn't have time to talk to you at the moment."
"Why?"
"Xiao Lingchen is back."
Pei Mubai: "..."
Hearing Xiao Lingchen's name, Pei Mubai felt even worse.
"What's he doing back here?"
"They are boyfriend and girlfriend. It's normal for them to come back. Maybe they will take Su Yuxi away."
"How dare he try to take away my woman!"
"Mu Bai, you and Su Yuxi have divorced. If she really decides to leave with Xiao Lingchen, what reason do you use to keep her?"
Pei Mubai: "..."
In Su Yuxi's heart, she must still have him, otherwise why would she sleep with him? Their bodies have always been in perfect harmony.
Su Yuxi and Xiao Lingchen have known each other for so many years, but they haven't done anything like that, which means that Su Yuxi doesn't like Xiao Lingchen at all, and he has enough reasons to keep Su Yuxi.
Moreover, Xiao Lingchen's parents probably would not agree with Xiao Lingchen and Su Yuxi being together.
…
"Xixi, will you come back to Country Z with me?" Xiao Lingchen came back this time specifically to pick up his children and Su Yuxi.
"I'll go to Country Z with you, and then what? See you marrying the royal princess, do you think I'm like a fool, being fooled around by you?" Su Yuxi only felt ironic.
"Xixi, Ruixuan and I are just good friends. Getting engaged to her is just a small favor. She and I will not get married, because the person she likes is not me. She is just using the engagement to force her to marry him.
A friend married her and they have now eloped."
Su Yuxi: "...Isn't the royal family in chaos now?"
"Xixi, this is not my jurisdiction. Rui Xuan broke the contract first, and the royal family will not hold me accountable."
