CH 24

In front of him, she kept this image of an arrogant, pampered and capricious bully, but tonight it was her first time being this embarrassed, and thus naturally she displayed the naivety of a young girl.

Fortunately, Shen Yi didn't seem to be planning to argue with her on this issue, he seemed to be tired. He rested his head gently on her shoulder and his eyes slowly closed up. After a while, he still kept this posture without moving, but Lu Wanwan was unsure of whether or not he fell asleep.

She lightly poked his waist with her finger and the man did not have any reaction, so Lu Wanwan poked him again, but he still did not react.

She figured the man was asleep.

Lu Wanwan felt that it's been a long time since she properly looked at his face. He looked gentle and she could still vaguely see the shadow of the youth from back then.

His skin was white and his eyelashes long, his sleepy face appeared peaceful and he looked very well behaved.

In those years when Lu Wanwan was still very naive, her heart was once sincerely moved by this face, who didn't like a pretty and delicate-looking boy? Moreover, at that time, Shen Yi seemed obedient and understanding and listened to her on every matter. She didn't know when his personality began to twist.

He was like a vine tightly wrapped around her, she could not breathe, and every day she lived under great pressure.

Lu Wanwan didn't know when he would wake up, she moved her body, ready to go into the bathroom to take a shower and sleep, when her wrist was suddenly grabbed firmly by the man. His voice was hoarse as he asked: "Where are you going ?"

"You're awake ? I'm going to take a shower before going to bed."

Not only did he not let go of her hand, he even smoothly dragged her into his arms, wrapped his long arms around her waist and held her tightly, then lazily rested his chin on the nape of her neck. His eye's corners reddened as he said, in a sullen voice, "Let me hug you a little longer."

Usually, it wasn't that Shen Yi didn't hug her, but each time he did, Lu Wanwan felt that his embrace was too heavy. This time also, she uncomfortably wriggled her body and opened her mouth but she had yet to speak.

When the man, whose long fingers were gently stroking the back of her neck, dragging out his voice, softly said, "Be good, listen to me."

Alright, she would just let him have a hug.

Lu Wanwan's body had a faint jasmine scent, it was a very sweet fragrance, the feeling was also soft when hugging her and it felt very comfortable.

He said he would just hug her but afterwards, she was somehow taken to bed.

She was sweating profusely and her body turned limp. The corners of Lu Wanwan's eyes were overflowing with water as she sobbed in a low voice. In the end she had to submit and beg for mercy, whimpering and crying out: "Shen Yi, I was wrong, I was really wrong."

Her eyes were slightly red and she looked at him pitifully, "I shouldn't have said you were unable wu wu wu."

The man raised his hand and ran it through the hair that was stuck to the side of her face, kissed her between her eyebrows and sighed with emotion, "Poor Wanwan."

His tone was lamenting, and he seemed to be genuinely sorry for her.

But the beast didn't stop and increased his force, drilling into her ruthlessly.

The news that Shen Yi had been recognized and reintegrated into the Shen family was not announced to the public, and he himself had no intention of moving back into the Shen family's familial house. Nevertheless, on New Year's day, Shen Yi's father and grandfather called one after the other, asking him to come home for dinner.

When Shen Yi received the call, he was absent-minded and didn't seem to be listening to what they were saying at all.

He indeed wasn't paying attention as he was thinking about what to cook for dinner today. These days, Lu Wanwan seemed to be very picky and didn't eat much during meals.

The old man at the other end of the phone had a long sigh. Every time he called, his first sentence was: "Grandpa has let you down, I let you suffer so much outside."

Before hanging up the phone, the grandfather Shen pondered for a moment and after thinking about it, his tone was dissatisfied as he said, "That wife of yours, I saw her once a few days ago, she's really ...... really unfit to be taken out in public !"

Shen Yi turned silent.

The grandfather Shen continued, "Just in those five minutes, she scandalously went around, behaved vulgarly and attached herself to rich people. When she saw a young talented man, she circled around him!"

Li Xing came inside the office to make him sign some documents and discovered that Shen Yi's face was pale and his mood frosty. His eyes also were cold and he didn't seem to be in a good state of mind.
