Bai Yuejie had never expected to hear such words from the mouth of a fool!
She wouldn’t believe it if soone hadn’t taught her; she would bet her life on it!
A pain throbbed in Bai Yuejie’s chest, but what hurt her even more was that before she could say anything, the call had been disconnected.
At this mont, it felt like her chest was stuffed with cotton, and she couldn’t catch her breath.
Struggling, Bai Yuejie reached for the two heart-saving pills on the bedside table and swallowed them, finally feeling so relief.
On the other side.
After hanging up the phone, Shi i felt an unusual sense of satisfaction.
Such fake friendships weren’t worth maintaining.
She tossed her cellphone aside and turned around, just as the sound of water in the bathroom stopped.
Shi i took off her coat and sweater and crawled under the covers.
When Shi Lingyan ca out, she poked her head out, blinked and said, "Hubby, are you cold? Do you want to co to bed and sleep?"
Shi Lingyan replied, "...I’m not cold."
The heater was on in the room, and the couch was big enough to sleep on without any discomfort.
Disappointnt was written all over Shi i’s face, and then she said, "Sister Bai just called you, I answered and told her you were in the shower, then Sister Bai..."
Shi Lingyan was drying his hair and paused when he heard this.
Shi i wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, looking sowhat downcast as she said, "Does Sister Bai like you? It seems she really, really likes you."
Shi Lingyan frowned and sternly said, "Don’t talk nonsense."
"I’m not," Shi i pouted, looking pitiful, "Sister Bai told so, I’m not making it up."
Seeing her like this, Shi Lingyan felt sothing was off and asked, "What exactly did she say to you?"
Shi i sniffled, looking like she might cry but holding it back, and said, "She said that she really likes you and that you really like her too, so you want to divorce to marry her..."
Shi Lingyan’s brows furrowed deeper as he said, "What nonsense, that’s not true."
"But... but that’s what Sister Bai told ," Shi i blinked and a tear ’plop’ fell down, "Please, no, Sister Bai has a heart condition and could die, she can’t be your bride, why do you like her and not ? Shi i can be your bride, too; I can have babies, she can’t, why do you want to marry her!"
Shi Lingyan rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache coming on, "Did she really say that to you?"
Shi i nodded.
Shi Lingyan picked up his phone, checked the call log, and indeed, there was a call that lasted three whole minutes.
Far longer than any of their previous calls.
His brows knitted together as Shi Lingyan glanced at Shi i’s sorrowful face and directly dialed Lin Kerou’s number.
Bai Yuejie was in a terrible mood, lying on her bed, planning to call Shi Lingyan again later, when suddenly, he called her first!
Bai Yuejie was overjoyed and eagerly answered, calling out, "Brother Ling Yan?"
Shi Lingyan, hearing Bai Yuejie’s voice, cut straight to the point and asked, "It’s , did you call just now?"
That single question made Bai Yuejie’s heart ache; filled with grievances, she answered, "Yes, but Shi i answered the phone, she..."
"Stop calling in the future."
Shi Lingyan was very direct, cutting off all the complaints that Bai Yuejie had wanted to voice, choking her words in her throat.
