CH 37

Lu Wanwan and Li Xing were walking as they talked, and then turned around a corner.

A man in a white shirt was leaning against the wall at the end of the corridor, his cuffs were pulled up, and his good-looking fingers were holding a lighter.

The man was fiddling with the lighter in his hand and then raised his black eyes, looking deeply at Lu Wanwan and the person beside her.

Lu Wanwan sucked in a breath of cold air, her throat felt congested, as if no more sound could come out of it.

Shen Yi put his hands in his pockets, his indifferent expression looked extraordinarily frightening. The look he had in his eyes when he met her eyes was emitting frost. He smiled lightly, “How come you stopped ? Keep talking.”

Chapter 37

(17.1)

Shen Yi originally thought he had forgotten how Lu Wanwan looked like when they were in high school, but seeing her standing beside Lin Xu, talking and laughing, the memories of the past all came flooding back.

During high school, Shen Yi only felt that Lu Wanwan looked very beautiful. In the whole high school, no one was more beautiful than she was.

Lu Wanwan repeatedly claimed that she liked him, but back then Shen Yi wasn’t quite sure what she liked about him exactly.

He had no father, no mother, and was in a wretched state, what part of him was deserving of her love?

Lu Wanwan straightforwardly stated, she only liked his face.

The young girl’s affection didn’t last long and Shen Yi very early on realized that Lu Wanwan didn’t absolutely need him, so whether it was before or after the wedding, he didn’t concern himself much about her affairs.

It was as Shen Shi just said, he didn’t have much love for Lu Wanwan in his heart and sometimes, when he smelled the scent of alcohol all over her, he would even feel disgusted.

But since a few months ago, Shen Yi’s eyes were always uncontrollably drawn to her. He saw a Lu Wanwan that was both delicate and also a little silly.

Her little tantrums began to fascinate him.

The Lu Wanwan who was stripped off of her ice clothes, was actually a mischievous child.

Shen Yi didn’t smoke, the lighter he was holding was the one that she had gifted him. He smiled, no sign of anger visible on his face, he said: “Continue ah.”

Keep talking, so that he could listen attentively to it as well.

Lu Wanwan was really stunned, she nervously began to swallow her saliva, how could she be so unlucky!!!

She had to be so unlucky as to run into Shen Yi here, and he even heard everything !

She wanted to calm down but was totally unable to, her heart was beating “ping ping ping” ; in fact, she could totally go along the flow and tell Shen Yi, “Ah, this is exactly as you saw, this is my lover, I’ve been fed up with you for a long time now.”

But right now Shen Yi’s gaze looked really too somber and carrying a chill, the smile in the corner of his eyes made her heart shiver with fear.

Shen Yi was this kind of person, when he was angry he would only smile, the more he was angry, the deeper his smile.

After much difficulty, Lu Wanwan opened her mouth, she closed her eyes and gathered her courage, she decided in that moment to act like a complete white lotus. “Yi Yi, what’s with your tone ? You’re speaking as if I have some kind of secretive relationship with Lin Xu, he and I are just classmates, don’t speak in a shady way.”

She did not admit it, Shen Yi should now be feeling that she was full of lies and should be hating her even more.

Shen Yi spat the words in a low voice, softly and slowly, “Is that so?”

Actually, Lu Wanwan was quite afraid of Shen Yi’s anger. Shen Yi, as the male lead, when his temper flared, naturally wasn’t easily fooled.

Shen Yi looked gentle and easy to get along with, but his heart was very harsh, in the past, Lu Wanwan once made him angry and he used all kinds of methods on her to get back at her.

And she, having soft bones, couldn’t endure a little bit of pain, and thus didn’t last long before she started begging for mercy.

Every time it came to this, Shen Yi didn’t even talk to her, he just smiled softly, but the punishment he gave her was never lightened.

He was after all the male lead, a ruthless heart and vicious methods were his natural disposition.

When Lu Wanwan first read the novel, she was captivated by the male lead Shen Yi who made it back from hell, and after he blackened and started torturing his ex-wife and her family, she applauded in admiration.

But when she transmigrated and herself became that unlucky ex-wife, she couldn’t laugh anymore.

“Yes ah, Yi Yi you wouldn’t misunderstand me and Lin Xu right ? There’s really nothing going on with him.”

Shen Yi’s face broke in a beautiful smile, “I believe you.”

Oh.

Eh!!!?

He believed her so easily?

It shouldn’t be like this.

Shen Yi put the lighter in his hand into his pocket, reached out his hand, and said softly, “Let’s go home first.”

His hands looked beautiful, his fingers were white and long.

Lu Wanwan hesitated for a long time, not daring to go over.

Shen Yi still had a smiling face as he asked, “Why aren’t you coming over? Wanwan doesn’t like me anymore?”

Lu Wanwan was shivering all over, during those years, “Wanwan doesn’t like me anymore?” was the question Shen Yi asked her the most often.

Her two previous not so wonderful experiences had left a shadow on her mind and right now, her fingers couldn’t help but tremble when she was reminded of it all.

Lu Wanwan dared to put her hand on her heart and claim with a clear conscience that at the beginning, when she was intending to please Shen Yi back then, she really gutted her heart and lungs for Shen Yi.

From the first year of high school, she pursued him step by step for two whole years before she finally had the person in her hands.

In the meantime, no matter how many time what greeted her was his cold face, she didn’t get discouraged. Shen Yi telling her to scram was also a common occurrence.

Later on, there was one time when she suffered a beating for Shen Yi and as a result, the teenager who never cared for her, finally relaxed his facial expression and carried her on his back all the way home.

Lu Wanwan still remembered, that evening, the sky looked very good, she had her arms hooked on the teenager’s neck as she laid on his back, she also felt that continuing to spend her days with him like this seemed pretty good.
