Chapter 3 Feeding an unfamiliar dog for 5 years
Lin Xi had eaten and drank enough, feeling physically and mentally comfortable. It was already 10:30 in the evening when she returned to Fenglin.
The unprecedented indulgence made her relaxed and happy, but of course also very tiring.
After taking a shower and skin care, she fell asleep. Although it was her first time staying here overnight, she didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
In my sleep, a rapid ringtone from my cell phone was extremely loud in the silent night.
Lin Xi was suddenly awakened. Looking at the words "Shen Yueru" on the screen, she quickly answered the phone.
"Hey, aunt."
"Why did it take you so long to answer the phone? Where is Yi Ze, why can't he get through?"
It was a complaint that Lin Xi was accustomed to.
"I'm staying with my mom in the hospital tonight, Yi Ze...I don't know."
Lin Xi thought for a moment and then lied. The divorce could not be known to too many people for the time being. Grandpa needed time for him to accept it.
"I don't know? As Yi Ze's wife, you don't go home to take care of him at night. Is this how you act like someone else's wife?
Lin Xi, I didn't agree with Yi Ze to marry you at the beginning. If it weren't for the old man's decision, would you have been able to enter the Shen family? It's better now, how dare you stay up all night.
It’s okay if you achieve nothing in five years, but you’re not up to par, so what’s the use of you? "
Lin Xi listened silently, took a deep breath, and said softly: "Auntie, is there anything urgent you need to find Yi Ze?"
Shen Yueru would not call her in the middle of the night just to teach her a lesson.
"Oh, yes! You were so angry that you almost delayed something important. Grandpa is hospitalized and is still in the emergency room. I can't contact Yi Ze. You should go back and ask him to come to the hospital with you!"
Shen Yueru hung up the phone in a hurry, but Lin Xi held the phone blankly, as if she had lost her soul.
The only person in the Shen family who is really good to her is the old man - Zhongshan!
After regaining consciousness, Lin Xi quickly got up, put on clothes, and called a car back to Yenan Villa.
He kept trying to call Shen Yize all the way, but unexpectedly he didn't answer.
When I arrived at Yenan Villa, I didn't even bother to turn on the light and ran straight upstairs, shouting as I ran, "Shen Yize, Shen Yize."
When he opened the door to his bedroom and turned on the light, he saw an empty bed with no trace of him anywhere.
Lin Xi looked at his phone at a loss. It was already early in the morning, where could he be?
After thinking for a moment, he called Shen Yize's assistant Qin Chuan directly. As Shen Yize's special assistant, his 24-hour standby is the most basic requirement, and he is the person most likely to know where Shen Yize is.
Sure enough, the call was answered quickly.
"Madam, what happened so late?"
"Where is Shen Yize?" Lin Xi asked bluntly.
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
"You don't have to worry, just tell me. Grandpa is sick and is being rescued."
After she finished speaking, Qin Chuan immediately said, "Maybe in Star River Bay."
"Thank you."
Lin Xi was about to hang up the phone, but she heard Qin Chuan say: "Madam, I'll wait for you at the gate of Galaxy Bay. I'm afraid you won't be able to get in."
Lin Xi hesitated for a few seconds and said quietly: "Okay."
It was almost one o'clock in the morning when we arrived at Star River Bay, and Qin Chuan was already waiting at the door.
This is a high-end community. No wonder Qin Chuan said she couldn't get in. The security here is not inferior to Yenan Villa.
"Ma'am, this way."
Lin Xi followed Qin Chuan and walked in quickly. Qin Chuan walked to the unit building and pressed the elevator.
After the two of them stood at the door of a closed room, Qin Chuan shrank back.
After a while of hesitation, Lin Xi summoned up the courage to ring the doorbell.
But the trembling hand betrayed her forced determination.
After the doorbell rang several times, the door opened.
The person who came out was Chu Xinyi.
"I'm looking for Shen Yize." Lin Xi didn't have time to take into account the expression on her face and spoke directly.
After a moment, Shen Yi walked out of the house dressed in casual clothes, as if this was his home.
He first looked at Qin Chuan coldly, then looked at Lin Xi indifferently.
"what's up?"
The man's voice was cold and calm, and he had dignity radiating from his bones, but he was not at all embarrassed about being caught by his wife.
"Grandpa is in the hospital for rescue. My aunt can't contact you, so she asked me to find you."
Shen Yi sneered but said nothing, but Lin Xi could clearly see the sarcasm in his eyes.
"Believe it or not."
After Lin Xi finished speaking, she turned and left. She forced herself to calm down, straighten her back, and tried hard to move her heavy legs to prevent the people behind her from seeing her pain.
"Get some rest quickly, I'm leaving first."
The man's voice behind her was not as cold as when he spoke to her, but was obviously warmer.
A sneer curled up at the corner of Lin Xi's lips. It turned out that his gentle tone was like this.
In the elevator, Lin Xi stood in the corner without any expression.
Qin Chuan also huddled in the corner, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.
Shen Yi glanced at Lin Xi through the glass in the elevator and said nothing with a sullen face.
"Go back."
After getting out of the elevator, Shen Yize dismissed Qin Chuan.
Then he dragged Lin Xi into his black Bentley.
The car was speeding in the dark night. Lin Xi looked out the window and felt uneasy. She was worried about her grandfather's condition at the moment and completely ignored Shen Yize's dark face.
"Lin Xi, can you be successful?"
Shen Yize's cool voice sounded even colder in the silent car. .
Lin Xi turned her head and looked at him lightly.
"It's so late for me to let the old man accompany you. Is your conscience being eaten by a dog?"
Shen Yi rolled his eyes at her disdainfully, his words were calm and unhurried.
Lin Xi smiled self-deprecatingly, "Yes, he was eaten by a dog. A dog that has been fed for five years and is not familiar with it."
"Are you looking for death?" Shen Yize's voice was sharp and sarcastic, "You just handed me a divorce agreement in the morning, and I have my father accompanying you to act in the evening. You are really brave."
Lin Xi didn't want to say a word to him, and turned to look out the car window with an indifferent expression, at the quiet and cold night!
They were about to get divorced, and she forced herself not to be stupid again, and she didn't allow herself to feel heartbroken.
When they arrived at the hospital, Lin Xi was anxious to see her grandfather's condition. She got off the car at the entrance of the hospital and ran to the ward, while Shen Yi went to park the car alone.
Lin Xi hesitated for a moment at the door of the VIP ward, took a deep breath, and gently opened the door and entered.
It was already past two o'clock in the morning, and there were still many people sitting in Grandpa's ward. Except for Shen Yize, everyone in the second room of the Shen family was there.
This posture made Lin Xi's heart sink, and tears instantly blurred his eyes.
"Why are you alone?" As soon as Lin Xi stepped in, Shen Yueru pushed her out. She stretched her head and looked towards the end of the corridor.
"I didn't ask you to find Yi Ze, where are the others?"
"He..." Lin Xi bit her lip. Although she didn't want to mention Shen Yize at the moment, she finally said: "He goes..."
Before she could finish her words, a crisp slap sounded throughout the corridor.
"My husband can't even find useless things. At this time, the things that should come are not coming, but the things that shouldn't be coming are rushing to come. You came here so eagerly, don't you just want to perform well in front of the old man and try to win him over? Give you some shares? I really dare to think about it!"
Shen Yi walked out of the elevator, frowned when he heard Shen Yueru's voice, and said softly: "Auntie."
