Chapter 42

(18.2)

No matter what, Shen Yi was also his own son, Shen Yi’s father’s words were like a knife being stabbed into his body.

But Shen Yi himself didn’t seem like he cared at all. He just raised his eyes to look at Lu Wanwan and then walked to her side. Holding her cold fingers, he asked, “Where have you been?”

Lu Wanwan replied, “I just had a casual walk around the yard.”

Shen Yi was pensive for a moment before he asked softly, “Is it okay if we stay here for the night ?”

If it was before, Lu Wanwan may have deliberately made trouble for him, would have refused to stay the night no matter what, and would have done whatever she wanted.

After a short time of pondering, Lu Wanwan nodded, “Alright.”

Shen Yi frowned, he was a little surprised as he did not expect her to agree so easily.

Shen Yi’s father who had been completely ignored by the young couple, felt like someone had lit another fire in his chest.

The gaze he used to look at the two was full of contempt.

He felt inside that even though Shen Yi had his own blood flowing in his veins, his manners and his temperament weren’t at all up to standard compared to the juniors of the Shen family.

Shen Yi’s father huffed with anger and went back to the bedroom. His wife, seeing his sullen face, knew he was in a bad mood, so she quickly poured him a cup of hot water, “Why are you so angry ? Drink a cup of water to calm down.”

When Shen Yi’s father saw his delicate wife, his anger was slightly reduced, and he said, “Isn’t that the fault of that troublesome son of mine ?”

His wife got married to him two years ago, she was younger than him, but she was sensible and generous.

“Ai, that boy has just returned from outside, it’s not surprising that he can’t adapt, you just have to remind him a few times, and he will naturally understand your heart.” After a pause, she added, “But, as I see it, the boy must be used to living difficult days outside, and he may not be able to change some habits. Today I saw him start eating before grandfather.”

Before the meal, the situation was chaotic.

No one paid attention to whether or not Shen Yi had been the first to start eating, and now, of course, what she said would be what had happened.

Shen Yi’s father face was overflowing with anger: “Disrespectful!”

“Don’t get too angry, I heard that this boy, for these past ten years, hasn’t been living good days, he lived in poverty, without anyone to teach him rules and manners, we should not blame him.”

Shen Yi’s father sneered, “Even if I teach him, he most likely won’t listen.”

The woman laughed: “Give him more money in the future, lest the boy doesn’t have money in his hands and makes you lose face in front of outsiders.”

“Mmh.”

Shen Yi’s bedroom had been prepared very early on by the servants. It was decorated with simple furnishings with dull colors.

He had already spread the bla

nket beforehand. Taking off his jacket, he said to her while untying his tie, “There are new pajamas in the closet.”

Lu Wanwan was standing still on the spot, her clear eyes staring at him in a daze. She couldn’t restrain her curiosity and asked: “Don’t you feel sad about those things your father said to you?”

Shen Yi’s expression looked puzzled, his eyebrows wrinkled as he asked rhetorically, “Why should I feel sad?”

He didn’t even listen closely to what his father was saying, it wasn’t worth it.

Lu Wanwan surprisingly was a little upset for him, feeling it was unjust, and complained in a small voice: “As I see it, his attitude towards you isn’t very good, his words are harsh, as if you were just……”

As if he had come to the Shen family to beg for money.

“It doesn’t matter.”

Shen Yi didn’t care much about what other people had to say about him, didn’t care about their opinions, and didn’t care if they treated him well or not.

All these years, didn’t he always live this way ?

Lu Wanwan still had things on her mind to ask, until she could get to the bottom of it, she could never rest.

She kept tossing and turning and didn’t sleep well this night. She dreamed of weird and monstrous things and woke up very tired.

While Lu Wanwan was sitting on the bed, she began to use her fingers to count the tricks she had done since she transmigrated back into the novel, she had actually done a lot of things.

But at this point Shen Yi still didn’t seem to want to divorce her, and even bribed her lawyer. Thinking about it, it was quite scary.

Lu Wanwan originally wanted to move forward according to the original plot, so that the male lead would take the initiative to mention divorce, but now it seemed that this method was no longer viable.

Since plan one didn’t work, she had to think of another plan.

Her appearance as she was sitting there on the bed, disheveled with her hair scattered, gave off another type of beauty, her dazed expression looked somewhat silly.

When Shen Yi turned around after he was done changing his clothes, he saw that silly look of hers.

Lu Wanwan who was in pajamas, walked barefooted towards him and tilting her head, she looked at him. The soft daylight of the beginning of the day illuminated one side of her face, which looked soft. When she opened her mouth, her throat felt a little sore as she said, “Shen Yi.”

The man’s ears tilted and the corners of his mouth pursed, he could almost guess what she was going to say next.

One strand of Lu Wanwan’s hair was raised up, Shen Yi reached his hand and pressed it down, but not long after, it rose again.

After a long time, Lu Wanwan licked her dry lips and said softly, “Shen Yi, let’s get a divorce.”
