Chapter 174: Crush
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
s.h.i.+ Xiao looked at Yuan Shu, who was calmly brewing a second pot of tea. Then, he slowly picked up the book “General History of the World” and prepared to continue reading.
s.h.i.+ Xiao suddenly had an idea and smiled at her as he said, “Come with me.”
Yuan Shu looked at him in confusion.
If he wanted to see Lin Xi, why would he bring her along? Yuan Shu remembered clearly that in the original novel, s.h.i.+ Xiao divorced Yuan Shu because of Lin Xi, upsetting Yuan Shu and making her take extreme measures.
Now, Yuan Shu was letting him see Lin Xi and didn’t interfere at all. Why did he want to grag her into this mess?
Yuan Shu really didn’t understand s.h.i.+ Xiao’s actions.
She was still sitting at the edge of the rocking chair, but the rocking chair didn’t shake at all. Yuan Shu placed the book on her knees and opened it calmly as she said, “I’m not going.”
s.h.i.+ Xiao had already guessed that she would say this, so he asked, “Aren’t you curious about who Lin Xi is? Or did you already know of her existence?”
Yuan Shu suddenly stopped flipping the book. The first question was easy to answer. Yuan Shu wasn’t a person who was curious about everything. However, the second question was filled with danger.
If Yuan Shu knew about Lin Xi’s existence long ago, how could she explain why she knew about the existence of a person who had just returned to the country and was secretly protected by s.h.i.+ Xiao?
Should Yuan Shu tell him directly, “Not only do I know who Lin Xi is, but I also know what happened between the two of you and that you will divorce me for her?”
Then, Lin Xi probably wouldn’t be the only one hospitalized today. s.h.i.+ Xiao would also immediately send Yuan Shu to the mental hospital.
After Yuan Shu thought about it carefully, she finally thought of a suitable answer. She looked up at s.h.i.+ Xiao and asked, “Do you want me to be curious?”
Yuan Shu threw the question back to s.h.i.+ Xiao. The rope that was being pulled was already taut. If both parties exerted any more strength, they would break the rope.
s.h.i.+ Xiao was stumped. Why did this question make it sound like he was afraid of being discovered?
Actually, s.h.i.+ Xiao had thought that the best way for these two women to interact with each other was to not know about each other’s existence until s.h.i.+ Xiao settled Lin Xi down.
This arrangement meant that s.h.i.+ Xiao repaid Lin Xi’s life-saving grace. Lin Xi could rely on herself and no longer need to rely on s.h.i.+ Xiao to survive.
But now, s.h.i.+ Xiao explained frankly, “She’s a woman I brought back from Africa. She saved my life in Africa.”
Yuan Shu nodded lightly. She thought that s.h.i.+ Xiao would end this topic, but she didn’t expect him to be so honest.
However, Yuan Shu didn’t fall for it and her tone became even colder. “Of course you have to take good care of her. It will be inconvenient for me to go.”
s.h.i.+ Xiao looked straight into Yuan Shu’s cold eyes. “It’s precisely at such a time that you should appear. Aren’t we supposed to be helping each other? Aren’t you obligated to help me deal with unnecessary relations.h.i.+p disputes?”
Yuan Shu was rendered speechless by s.h.i.+ Xiao’s words. There was nothing wrong with his words. As his wife, she naturally had to help him deal with unnecessary relations.h.i.+p disputes. However, the two of them were only in a cooperative relations.h.i.+p and weren’t real husband and wife. Their relations.h.i.+p should be considered an unnecessary relations.h.i.+p dispute as well!
While Yuan Shu was in a daze, s.h.i.+ Xiao had already taken a step forward. He took out the book in Yuan Shu’s hand and placed it back on the rocking chair. Then, he pulled Yuan Shu’s arm to get her to stand up.
Yuan Shu wanted to struggle a little more, but was already forced to stand up. It was no longer appropriate for her to refuse in this situation.
Yuan Shu sighed and finally compromised. “I’ll go with you after I change my clothes.”
s.h.i.+ Xiao nodded and turned to leave the room. He even closed the door for Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shu was rendered speechless by his sudden thoughtfulness. She was considered someone with an omniscient view, so why couldn’t she win against him?
Most importantly, after this person achieved his goal, he even showed a hint of gentleness, making Yuan Shu feel as if all her struggles were in vain!
