Song Yuanhuan cast a cold glance at Lu Xiangxiang standing in front of him, as if he hadn’t seen her at all, and deliberately moved two steps to the left. Then he gazed affectionately toward Xu Xiuxiu’s direction. When Xiuxiu noticed him, she imdiately smiled at him and turned her head to say sothing to Ye Hua beside her. Ye Hua frowned and then looked over in the direction of Xiuxiu’s gaze.
Their eyes t in the air for a mont.
"Ye Hua, my beloved has co to pick up, so there’s no need for you to send off. Tomorrow, I’ll be setting off for the Imperial City. You’ll have a hard ti overseeing Soup City, but if there’s anything, you can call . It’s a quick flight from Z city to the Imperial City," Xu Xiuxiu waved goodbye to Ye Hua and also inford him about her departure from Z city to the Imperial City.
Ye Hua understood her family situation quite well and never said much about it.
"Alright, I hope you have a smooth journey." Hearing Xu Xiuxiu use the word ’beloved’, Ye Hua felt a twinge of pain in his heart. Yet, after clarifying his own feelings, he had no intention of following his desires. He nodded and watched like a gentleman as Xu Xiuxiu walked toward Song Yuanhuan—a mature move that a man of a certain age would make, feeling moved but not acting on it because he knew it was impossible.
Lu Xiangxiang stood next to Song Yuanhuan, hoping with expectant eyes to get a response from him. However, Song Yuanhuan’s gaze stayed fixed on Xu Xiuxiu from the beginning to end, watching her approach step by step. His icy expression slowly lted into a smile, and Xiangxiang felt extrely resentful.
Perhaps for a woman deeply in love with him, this was a profoundly sad realization, because the person who could make you smile was never .
"Yuanhuan, Xu Xiuxiu has made a cuckold out of you; she’s not a woman who stays true to her duties..." Lu Xiangxiang, in attempting to slander Xu Xiuxiu, reached out to touch Song Yuanhuan’s sleeve, trying to direct his gaze back to her through slinging mud. He wouldn’t even spare her a glance, so apart from attacking Xu Xiuxiu, she seed to have no other way to make him look at her.
"Get lost." Song Yuanhuan brushed away Lu Xiangxiang’s presumptuous gesture with a flick of his hand. Holding a warm coat, he saw Xu Xiuxiu approaching, stepped forward, and draped the coat over her: "Are you cold?"
"Not cold." Xu Xiuxiu responded cheerfully, shaking her head. She then looked at him and asked, "How co you’re here? You’re comfortable leaving the kids at ho?"
"There’s nothing to worry about at ho," Song Yuanhuan answered. Seeing that Xu Xiuxiu seed to be in good spirits, he finally relaxed, "It’s cold outside, hurry up and get into the car!"
"Mhmm." Xu Xiuxiu agreed obediently and was about to get into the car with Song Yuanhuan’s careful help.
Failing to grab Song Yuanhuan’s attention in front of him, Lu Xiangxiang had no choice but to stop Xu Xiuxiu: "Xu Xiuxiu, I’ve already told Yuanhuan that you’ve been unfaithful and made a fool of him. If you have any sense, leave Song Yuanhuan and stop clinging to him." Lu Xiangxiang spoke through clenched teeth, warning Xu Xiuxiu.
Who exactly was the one clinging to Song Yuanhuan? Xu Xiuxiu looked at Lu Xiangxiang with amusent, "Oh!" Xu Xiuxiu gave a nonchalant nod, uttered an indifferent "oh," swept another glance at Lu Xiangxiang, and completely ignored her, proceeding to get into the car.
"Did you not hear what I said?" Lu Xiangxiang watched Xu Xiuxiu’s reaction angrily. She had thought that Xu Xiuxiu would be furious or might curse out loud, but Xu Xiuxiu’s reaction was calm and entirely different from what she had imagined, causing her to angrily grab the car door.
"I heard it!" Xu Xiuxiu nodded, "So what?"
"You heard and you still shalessly get in the car?" Lu Xiangxiang looked at her as if she had discovered a new continent.
Xu Xiuxiu raised an eyebrow and stared at her for a long ti, "Why shouldn’t I dare to ride in my man’s car? Besides, Lu Xiangxiang, is there a hole in your brain? You’ve always been so full of yourself. Haven’t you learned anything from your past mistakes? Now you still think the whole world is your mother, that everyone should indulge you whatever you say or do?" After speaking in a contemptuous tone, she reached out and gently tapped her head, "You should see a psychiatrist. If you’re sick, get treated soon. Stop acting like a mad dog, barking everywhere. You know, I have only one rule for stupid won who try to ruin my marriage. Want to give it a try?"
Lu Xiangxiang was dumbfounded by Xu Xiuxiu’s imposing manner.
Seeing this, Xu Xiuxiu snorted coldly and casually slamd the car door shut. Song Yuanhuan sat in the driver’s seat and as soon as the door was closed, the car started right up.
Because of Lu Xiangxiang’s appearance, Song Yuanhuan had also seen Xu Xiuxiu on the verge of blowing her top, so there was a mont of silence in the car. After they had driven so distance, Song Yuanhuan took the opportunity while driving to ask Xu Xiuxiu, "What’s this one-rule policy? Lady, would you care to share?"
Song Yuanhuan asked with a desire to please.
"Want to know?" Xu Xiuxiu turned her head and asked back with a dangerously raised eyebrow.
"Mhm." Song Yuanhuan affird his own curiosity. He was indeed curious about the rule she ntioned. Although he was one hundred percent confident in himself, he knew he would never fall for a second woman other than her. But whenever he was facing his wife, who seed to be constantly in a marriage crisis, he felt especially reassured.
Because Xu Xiuxiu was only sensitive to the won who appeared beside him, unaware of how tenderly the n around her looked at her, like that partner Ye Hua, for example.
"Cut the weeds, root and all," she said icily, without a hint of emotion.
"I like it," Song Yuanhuan said, slowly savoring the words, a smile spreading across his usually cold face.
After the entrepreneurs’ annual eting ended, Xu Xiuxiu returned ho. Due to traveling to Imperial City the next day, Xu Jingjing and Wei Jiaqiang had returned ho early. Song Yuanming had also just finished school, so everyone gathered for a sumptuous dinner.
"Si Ya, co, I’m going back to Imperial City tomorrow. It might be a year and a half before we see each other again. Let’s chat, just the two of us!" After dinner, Xu Xiuxiu tossed the dishes to Song Yuanhuan to deal with, and as a brother-in-law, Wei Jiaqiang naturally followed suit, joining him in the kitchen.
Seeing this, Xu Xiuxiu pulled Xu Jingjing onto the sofa for a private talk.
"Sure!" Xu Jingjing nodded. They sat leisurely on the sofa, each holding a drink, "Your husband really sets a good example." Xu Jingjing glanced at the two n washing dishes in the kitchen, laughing happily.
Wei Jiaqiang was actually very considerate of Xu Jingjing. In their hotown, he was sothing of an exception. But in the end, he was a typical man, carrying many of the typical male ideas with him. However, he had the misfortune of encountering Song Yuanhuan, who had been thoroughly whipped by Xu Xiuxiu. Having stayed under the sa roof for the past few days, after witnessing Song Yuanhuan’s attentive and considerate behavior towards Xu Xiuxiu, Wei Jiaqiang was extrely shocked.
