"Probably not. After all, there are no benefits to be had." Bai Yuexi said unconcerned.
"That's the problem."
"What problem?" She looked at her doubtfully.
Chen Ying looked at her helplessly, "Are you stupid? Who do you think will benefit the most from defeating the Xu Family? You don't think it's you, do you? "
"…" Bai Yuexi was even more suspicious.
"Stupid!" On the surface, Li Fengjue will help you take revenge, but once your Xu Family has fallen, he will not need to marry another woman that he doesn't want to marry anymore.
Bai Yuexi suddenly realized something and her heart sank.
Chen Ying continued to speak, "What I'm afraid of right now is that you might have fallen in love with him because you were moved, but he didn't do it for you. He had your sweet words on one side, and he even destroyed Xu Family on the other.
Bai Yuexi stood there in a daze as if someone stabbed him in her heart.
She had indeed fallen in love with Li Fengjue. Perhaps it was after she was moved, or perhaps it was even longer ago.
He was clearly a dangerous man. He clearly couldn't be near her, but her heart involuntarily drew closer to him. Perhaps, unknowingly, she had already been moved by him and just didn't notice it.
However, after hearing Chen Ying's analysis, she felt that her sincerity was not respected.
Chen Ying frowned as she looked at Bai Yuexi, "Are you listening to me? "You must remember, you must never trust a man!"
"Of course, you talk in my ears every day, how can I forget about that. Men like Li Fengjue don't suit me at all, I know that in my heart."
Hearing Bai Yuexi's words, Chen Ying nodded her head in satisfaction.
"I am relieved to hear you say this, but you must remember my words!"
After Chen Ying left, Bai Yuexi was distracted for the entire day. She felt like there was a giant boulder pressing on her heart, and she could not muster up any energy in doing anything.
Finally, it was time to get off work. Bai Yuexi did not go to the supermarket to buy food as usual. Instead, she returned home in a daze.
Li Fengjue returned.
Bai Yuexi pushed the door open and was about to walk in, but she was stopped.
"What's wrong with you? "I feel a bit disheartened." He took a few steps forward and used his slender fingers to probe her forehead. "It's not hot."
Gently taking off his hand, Bai Yuexi forcefully pursed her lips, "Nothing much, I'm just too tired from work."
He put his arm around her shoulders and the two of them pushed through the door and into the house.
Bai Yuexi had once imagined how the man beside her would care and treat her with care in such a situation, while she was also extremely loyal to the man beside her.
But, was Li Fengjue this man?
"What are we having tonight? Do you want me to take you out for a big meal? " Li Fengjue pulled her to the sofa and sat down.
"There are still some leftovers in the fridge, we can do whatever we want …"
Before he finished speaking, Li Fengjue immediately stood up and opened the refrigerator door. He poured out all the food that was wrapped in a fresh film.
"Why are you wasting food?"
"You don't know about your own stomach disease, do you? How can I eat leftovers? " Li Fengjue frowned, he wiped his hands, walked to the side of the sofa and sat down.
"Sometimes I will travel for a long time. If I don't want to cook, I will go out to eat. You can spend my money as you wish."
Bai Yuexi's heart felt warm, but it still held a hint of bitterness. He was concerned about her stomach, and she was also concerned about whether she was sick.
Li Fengjue brought Bai Yuexi out to the dining area to eat, when the food was served, Li Fengjue suddenly said: "My grandfather went back to my house, he said that he wanted me to bring you there too."
The hand Bai Yuexi used to pick up the chopsticks suddenly paused, and pretended to be relaxed as she said, "They wouldn't be thinking of killing me, right?"
"With me here, I will absolutely not let them touch you in the slightest." Li Fengjue said in a serious tone.
Her heart suddenly trembled, every word that Li Fengjue said now seemed to be able to change her mood. What she couldn't get out of her mind were Chen Ying's words.
She pretended to be unconcerned and asked, "The reason why you want to destroy Xu Family is actually to get rid of Xu Ziqi, right?"
Li Fengjue raised his eyebrows, and looked at her with praise, "In the past few days following me, you have become a lot smarter."
"Are you going to do the same without me?" Bai Yuexi's heart tightened, the hand holding the chopsticks slightly tightened, and she lowered her head a little.
Li Fengjue frowned, "That little trick of yours, can at most be considered as the fuse, I originally thought that after marrying you, I would be let off, but I never expected that they would become stronger, I had already thought that Xu Family would be destroyed, that it was only a matter of time."
She slowly tightened her grip and said softly, "Back then, you swore that you would help me take revenge. Actually, it was to solve your own problem."
"Why can't you, woman, think straight? Now, the result is a win-win situation. Since I helped you take revenge, I have also gotten rid of the entanglement of Xu Family. "
So what Chen Ying had said was all true.
She had thought all of it was self-righteousness.
It was not to prevent her from entangling herself with the two Xu Family brothers, nor was it to pamper her heart that she was plotted by Xu Ziqi.
She lowered her head even further and continued to eat.
Li Fengjue frowned and asked, "Why do I feel like you're acting all weird today? What's the matter with you? "
Bai Yuexi's heart was clogged up but she endured the emotions in her heart. She lifted her head and smiled, "Nothing."
Seeing her forced smile, Li Fengjue's gaze deepened, and his frown deepened. "You …"
"I'm full. I'll wait for you outside."
After which, he got up and walked outside.
When the two of them returned from the dining hall, they did not say a word, Li Fengjue's face was gloomy, holding a notebook as he worked in the living room, Bai Yuexi was lying on the sofa, quietly watching him.
He had a perfect face, and was extremely serious at work. Even if he didn't speak, he could still feel a formless pressure.
Suddenly, Li Fengjue turned to look at her, "You're too unreserved, staring straight at me, you want to eat me?"
Maybe because he felt that the atmosphere was a little heavy, Li Fengjue started to joke.
Bai Yuexi snorted, turned and ran up the second floor into the bathroom.
Just as he took off his clothes, the shower gel turned into foam, and with a bang, the door was kicked open.
Bai Yuexi calmly looked at Li Fengjue, "Can you be a little more careful next time? My door is very expensive! "
His eyes wandered over her body, and an evil smile appeared on his lips. "Next time? "It seems like you are trying to seduce me."
