Since the last time Xiao Hui and Tang Shaofeng parted on bad terms, Xia Wan had discovered that Tang Shaofeng's mood had always been very low.
Every time, Xia Wan would try to persuade Tang Shaofeng, but the moment she mentioned Xiao Hui, she would cleverly avoid her.
Not only that, Xia Wan realized that Tang Shaofeng was getting busier and busier, and it was getting late when she got home.
Originally, Xia Wan had planned to start preparing for pregnancy again, but she had been too embarrassed to mention it.
This sort of thing, she felt that a girl like her would always seem to have no shame.
A week had passed and her interaction with Tang Shaofeng had become very sparse. Every night, Tang Shaofeng would only come back after she had gone to sleep.
Furthermore, Tang Shaofeng, who was originally very energetic, suddenly did not like being close to her. When he was sleeping, Xia Wan had sensed several times that she was trying to distance herself from him.
In the morning, Xia Wan woke up from her dreams, she opened her groggy eyes, and casually probed around for a spot where there was no longer any temperature, her expression becoming very depressed.
"What happened to Tang Shaofeng? Could it be because of my conflict with Xiao Hui, that's why I'm so depressed? "
While waiting at home with nothing to do, Xia Wan paced back and forth in the courtyard until she received a message from Tang Shaofeng. Then, she walked into the house with a lonely face.
She couldn't remember how long it had been since she last had dinner with Tang Shaofeng. Every time he would send her a message she didn't need to wait.
After making some food, Xia Wan went into her bedroom early, flipping through the comic book out of boredom.
At the same time, in Ye Fu's private residence, Tang Shaofeng was currently sitting opposite to him with a dark and cold expression.
Tang Shaofeng's expression was gloomy, he felt uncomfortable all over, and he was completely unwilling to be alone with Ye Fu.
However, due to the threat of the photos, he had no choice but to force himself to accompany Ye Fu.
Seeing that Tang Shaofeng was unhappy, Ye Fu poured a cup of red wine and passed it to him, "Are you unhappy?"
Lifting his eyes, Tang Shaofeng did not accept the wine cup, "Don't you have eyes?"
Even if he was forced to stay together with Ye Fu, Tang Shaofeng had always kept a safe distance from him, so that he would not be caught red-handed.
Moreover, no matter how Ye Fu tried to curry favor with Tang Shaofeng, he would still return the favor with a stern voice. The two of them got along with each other without any feelings, and were even colder than enemies.
Ignoring Tang Shaofeng's indifference, Ye Fu deliberately raised her eyebrows and asked: "You miss your wife?"
Tang Shaofeng's eyes shone with a dangerous light, and he warned with a sinister tone: "I'm already here at any time, so it's best if you behave yourself, and not have any ideas about Xia Wan!"
On the surface, Ye Fu did not seem to care that Tang Shaofeng cared so much about Xia Wan, but in reality, all of her shamelessness was because she wanted to obtain Tang Shaofeng, so how could she not be jealous of Xia Wan?
Lowering his eyelids to cover the sharpness in her eyes, Ye Fu laughed and teased: Why are you so excited? I was only guessing your thoughts. "
Snorting coldly, Tang Shaofeng laughed sinisterly and asked: "Is that so? Then guess what I'm doing right now? "
Ye Fu laughed coquettishly, pretending to not understand the annoyance in Tang Shaofeng's eyes, "You want to do something with me that adults like to do?"
Sneering disdainfully at Ye Fu, Tang Shaofeng mockingly said in an uncomprehending manner, "Don't touch your own face with gold, you're not even as attractive as a sow to me."
Biting his lip, Ye Fu's heart hurt, but she still endured it.
She insisted that Tang Shaofeng accompany her, thinking that the other party would slowly resist their enticement and succeed in doing so as a matter of course.
However, she had never seen a man whose mental fortitude was stronger than Tang Shaofeng's. Or rather, Tang Shaofeng's words were not empty words.
"I want you to stay tonight." Ye Fu put down her cup, and requested Tang Shaofeng with a calm tone.
With sunken brows, Tang Shaofeng suppressed his anger and rejected: "No! Ye Fu, don't go too far! "
Shrugging his shoulders, Ye Fu laughed at herself indifferently: "Anyway, you already hate me a lot, I don't mind if you hate me a little more. Besides, compared to having no feelings, being annoying was already very good. So, you can't go back on your promise. Be careful that I don't surprise you. "
Tang Shaofeng's concern for Xia Wan was immediately cut off by him.
As the time grew later, Ye Fu did not allow her to return, so she did not dare to take the risk of breaking the promise.
Standing at the window and looking at the pitch darkness in the distance, he couldn't help but recall that night when there was a power outage. Xia Wan was curled up like a kitten on the sofa.
Not being able to relax, Tang Shaofeng was extremely worried, as he stared into the distance like an idiot.
Seeing that Tang Shaofeng was so infatuated with Xia Wan, Ye Fu bit her lips in jealousy.
But a second later, she regained her calm expression, "What? Worried about Xia Wan? It's not like she's a child, do you have to be so worried? "
"As long as I am not by her side, I will not be at ease for even a moment. Are you satisfied with the answer? " Tang Shaofeng purposely provoked the other party, using this to take revenge for Ye Fu's actions.
With a pinch in his heart, Ye Fu teased her nonchalantly: "If you keep going like this, I'm going to get jealous. "Don't underestimate the power of a woman's jealousy."
Frowning, Tang Shaofeng slowly turned around and looked at Ye Fu with a gaze of pity and disgust, "Is this interesting? I know I won't fall for you. "
"As for me, I'm not one to admit defeat, so no matter how much you beat me up, I won't give up. Who allowed me to seize this opportunity?"
Couldn't be bothered to care about the shameless Ye Fu anymore, Tang Shaofeng continued to immerse himself in his love for Xia Wan.
The night was getting darker, and it was getting closer to midnight.
Xia Wan did not sleep that night and waited in her bedroom.
But when dawn arrived, she did not wait for Tang Shaofeng to arrive, nor did she receive a single call.
The sweetness between the two had not lasted for long, before it entered into a period of coldness. Xia Wan was somewhat unable to accept this, and felt even more unaccustomed.
Actually, it wasn't that Tang Shaofeng had forgotten to contact Xia Wan, but rather, the request of Ye Fu couldn't be contacted.
Therefore, Xia Wan, who had waited foolishly for an entire night with a cold heart, was also unable to rest peacefully.
While holding on to his spirit and waiting until 8: 30 in the morning, Xia Wan guessed that Tang Shaofeng should have reached the company by now, so she dialed the other party's office's number.
"Where did you go yesterday? You didn't come back for the entire night."
Tang Shaofeng, who had just rushed to the company, immediately asked them about it. His heart ached, but he lied and explained: "Yesterday, I had a social meetup too late, and I reeked of alcohol. I was afraid that I would wake you up, so I spent the night outside the hotel."
The other end of the call was quiet, Tang Shaofeng frowned, not daring to relax.
"Alright, as long as you're fine."
Hearing this, Tang Shaofeng breathed out softly, almost inaudible, "If I forget to tell you next time, don't wait so foolishly anymore, understand?"
Xia Wan was silent for a long time before she managed to squeeze out a good word.
The atmosphere became very quiet, and suddenly, there was no more topic of conversation between the two of them.
It wasn't that Tang Shaofeng didn't want to communicate with him, it was just that he was in a torturous state and didn't know what to say to make Xia Wan feel at ease.
Thinking that Tang Shaofeng was busy with work, Xia Wan hoarsely reminded him, "Go ahead and busy yourself, pay attention to your body. "Also..."
Since Xia Wan did not finish speaking, Tang Shaofeng was not willing to hang up the phone.
"I miss you."
After being stunned for a while, Tang Shaofeng raised the corner of his mouth, his emotions complex, "I also missed you … "I really do."
In the old house, Xia Wan looked at the phone, but did not move her gaze away. In the end, she took a deep breath with a lost look in her eyes, and did not delve any further into why Tang Shaofeng was not willing to speak to her.
Returning to bed, Xia Wan tossed and turned. Even though she hadn't slept the entire night, she wasn't sleepy at all.
When she closed her eyes, all she could think of was Tang Shaofeng. She stared at him lovingly, smiled evilly, and kissed him tyrannically.
Shaking his head, Xia Wan felt that she could no longer continue like this. Otherwise, she would become a married woman, and would have to find something for herself to do to divert her attention.
After thinking about it, she could only invite him to go shopping and try to get rid of the loneliness with the party.
Along the way, Lu Yaoyao noticed that she was not paying attention, so Lu Yaoyao said in dissatisfaction: "Aunt, I asked for a leave of absence the moment you called, but look at your current expression, it's as if you're a resentful woman."
Lifting his head worriedly, Xia Wan found a coffee shop and dragged Lu Yaoyao inside.
After they sat down, Xia Wan then told them why she was so distracted, "What, Tang Shaofeng has been so busy lately, he doesn't talk to me much, and he doesn't even talk to me that much. I had originally wanted to continue preparing for pregnancy, but I'm too embarrassed to mention it."
Lu Yaoyao laughed and rolled her eyes at Xia Wan, "Silly girl, what are you embarrassed about? You two are husband and wife, how could he reject you?"
Shaking his head, Xia Wan looked at Lu Yaoyao seriously yet confusedly, "I'm telling you to be serious, he has been very cold to me recently. He only returns home in the middle of the night. In the past, he would have held me, but now, when I accidentally touched him, he would have avoided me. I don't know if it's because I've overthought things, but in short, I feel really bad inside … "
Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao just realized the seriousness of the situation.
However, from the trust she had for Tang Shaofeng, she believed that he was only tired from his work, which was why he didn't have any energy.
"Xia Bao, perhaps you're overthinking it, Tang Shaofeng has such a large industry, he will definitely be tired, please understand and understand him."
Nodding, Xia Wan replied dejectedly: "I know, that's why I wanted to find something to do for myself to have a baby to play with. But he didn't want to touch me, so I didn't have a chance to. I don't want to put all my attention on him, either, so that I don't think about it all the time. "
Slowly beating his head, Lu Yaoyao thought for a few seconds, then her eyes lit up, "Isn't it your birthday in a while? You can propose this as your birthday wish without embarrassment or rejection. "
Feeling that Lu Yaoyao's suggestion was feasible, Xia Wan's eyes lit up again, "I knew you had a lot of tricks up your sleeves! Will you prepare it for me when the time comes? "
"Which one of us is with which one of us? Is it alright? Get the word 'm' removed!"
With Lu Yaoyao's support, Xia Wan was a lot happier, and she, who was no longer depressed, was already beginning to look forward to her birthday.
