Huo Yuheng looked at the closed door, feeling more and more annoyed, all because of that woman Su Ningxi.
The next day, Su Ningxi went downstairs and ran into Huo Yuheng. Su Ningxi smiled and greeted, "Hi! Good morning!"
Huo Yuheng glanced at her bandaged knee, then walked downstairs without responding. Su Ningxi shrugged, unbothered, and continued limping downstairs.
"Get out of the way." As soon as she reached the bottom of the stairs, Su Ningxi heard Huo Yuheng's voice outside.
Su Ningxi walked over and saw several bodyguards blocking Huo Yuheng's path. "Second Young Master, Eldest Young Master ordered that you cannot take a step out this door without his permission."
Su Ningxi was confused. Huo Yuchen was not allowing Huo Yuheng to go out? Why?
Just then, Huo Yuheng angrily stomped back, glaring fiercely at Su Ningxi as he passed.
Su Ningxi blinked innocently. This had nothing to do with her. It wasn't her forbidding him from going out. This man's temper was just like Huo Yuchen's - cut from the sa cloth.
****
Because of her limited mobility, Su Ningxi obediently stayed at the villa for several days.
One day, she was woken up by a phone call. Still groggy, she answered, "Hello?"
"Su Ningxi, how can you still be sleeping when your man has been led away by so vixen?" Lan Ling's anxious voice ca through.
Su Ningxi: "What's going on?"
Lan Ling: "Check your phone. Your husband is caught dating another woman, it's trending online!"
Su Ningxi bolted upright in bed, barely believing her ears. "What? Say that again, who was caught dating?"
Lan Ling repeated, "Your husband was caught dating."
Huo Yuchen dating another woman? And got photographed?
"That can't be right! You must have seen wrong." With his usual aloof and abstinent image, it was hard to imagine him dating other won.
"I didn't see wrong, look for yourself if you don't believe ." Lan Ling sounded certain.
Su Ningxi fell silent and opened her phone directly. Huo Yuchen's na didn't even show up in the search results, let alone any photos. She casually said to Lan Ling, "There's nothing online! I knew you saw wrong!"
Soon Lan Ling's voice ca through, "Damn, it's gone. Huo Yuchen's PR team is no joke. Good thing I took screenshots, I'll send them to you."
Su Ningxi declined, "No need, ignorance is bliss. I'm going back to sleep."
Why should she care who he dates? It has nothing to do with her.
"How magnanimous you are to still think about sleeping at a ti like this!"
Su Ningxi sounded indifferent. "I don't care how many won he has outside, it has nothing to do with . We aren't even really married.
"Even if it's a fake marriage, it's still a marriage! Even without feelings, you are at least still his legal wife! Them being so blatant is a provocation, completely disrespecting you."
"He has never respected from the start of our marriage. This is nothing new."
Lan Ling: "From your tone, it sounds like you're very frustrated!"
"What can I do, I'm just unlucky! We'll be divorcing anyway, it's not like I'll be with him forever. One year will pass quickly, I'll endure."
"With a man as handso as him living with you every day, how can you not have developed so feelings?"
"Impossible. My eyes work fine. Why would I have any feelings for him? There are plenty of better n in this world, forget it, I'm hanging up."
After hanging up, Su Ningxi received the photo Lan Ling sent.
Despite claiming she didn't want to see, Su Ningxi unhesitatingly opened the image. The photo was very clear, showing Huo Yuchen hugging a woman into a hotel.
The woman was nestled in his arms, only her side profile visible. That profile looked very familiar, almost like Ling Yin.
For so reason, though she was fine earlier, Su Ningxi felt extrely annoyed after seeing this photo. She flung her phone onto the bed. Scumbag.
Though she tried to go back to sleep, Su Ningxi kept tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Whenever she closed her eyes, all she saw was Huo Yuchen embracing that woman.
Ah... Su Ningxi ruffled her ssy hair in frustration and got out of bed.
Seeing her co downstairs, Tang Chen asked, "Sister-in-law, do you know my brother is cheating?"
"You an him going out with that woman and getting photographed? I know!" Su Ningxi acted very nonchalant.
Seeing her lack of distress, Tang Chen asked, "Aren't you angry?"
Su Ningxi spoke magnanimously, "What's there to be angry about? I think it's very normal for a successful man to keep so won outside. No big deal."
Huh? What kind of theory is this?
Tang Chen looked at Su Ningxi in shock. His sister-in-law sure was unusual! Most won would be weeping or making a fuss upon learning their husband was fooling around outside. Yet she thought it was perfectly normal for her husband to keep mistresses, as if she was too dumb or too in love to care.
He hoped it was the latter!
anwhile, Huo Yuheng beside him seed to be in a good mood playing gas, seeing Su Ningxi not glaring daggers at him for the first ti in days.
These past few days stuck together at ho, she had given him nasty looks every day. Suddenly not getting any today felt strange.
He wondered, did she take the wrong dication today?
After dinner, Su Ningxi went to the Sheng house. That morning, Sheng Old Master had called asking her to et a suitor, which she originally wanted to decline. But rembering Huo Yuchen's infidelity, she readily agreed - if he was going to fool around, she wouldn't fall behind. Only by both being scumbags could her heart find balance.
To prevent Su Ningxi from playing any tricks, Sheng Old Master arranged the eting at ho this ti.
Su Ningxi took a limited edition LOL dress from the wardrobe and did her makeup on the way over, transforming from the ugly Su Ningxi into the elegant Su Ningxi.
Upon arriving, the male suitor was already there.
As soon as she entered, Sheng Old Master's delighted voice rang out, "Speak of the devil! Here she cos!"
He waved Su Ningxi over. "Little Xi, co here quickly!"
Su Ningxi headed boldly towards Sheng Old Master. "Grandfather."
Ling Zhehan and Huang Zhen were also in the living room. Su Ningxi greeted them each in turn.
"Old geezer, you're so fortunate to have such a beautiful granddaughter. I'm incredibly envious!" The speaker was an old man around Sheng Old Master's age. He looked increasingly satisfied as he eyed Su Ningxi.
