Tiantian was stunned for a moment before asking anxiously, "Did I hear it right? "Sister Yue, you've just been promoted to the department manager. Why do you suddenly want to resign?"

"Hmm, I just feel very tired. I'll send you the resignation report after it's written." Bai Yuexi replied weakly, she did not want to be questioned further, so she found a random excuse and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, he saw Li Fengjue staring at her with blazing eyes, "You resigned because of me?"

Bai Yuexi had originally planned to shake her head, but after a moment of thought, she looked him in the eyes and nodded.

"I don't want to look like I hate myself."

Li Fengjue calmly looked at her but did not speak.

The two sat in a daze for a while, until Li Fengjue suddenly received a phone call.

Bai Yuexi used his computer to edit his resignation letter and sent it to Tiantian. She then changed into a clean set of clothes, washed herself, and went downstairs.

Mrs Li hurriedly went forward to support her, her movements very careful, "Young Mistress, where are you going? Just tell me what you want to do. "

Bai Yuexi laughed, "I just want to go home."

"Go home?" Mother Li was slightly surprised, "Aren't you your home?"

She raised her head and looked at the empty room. Despite its splendor, there was still a bit more indifference and less tenderness.

Without a sound, Bai Yuexi shook her head and replied softly, "No, I want to go home."

Mother Li still wanted to advise her further, but seeing how determined Bai Yuexi was, she did not say anything.

As she dragged his heavy body back home, Bai Yuexi pushed open the door. Seeing that it was still as cold as usual, the corner of her mouth hooked up into a bitter smile.

The wounds on her body were still dull and painful, especially the pain in her chest. Even breathing felt painful.

She slowly made her way to the second floor and fell asleep after lying on the bed for a while.

After an unknown amount of time, she heard a rustling sound. She wrinkled her brow and slowly opened her eyes.

In the dense darkness, a black figure slowly approached. Bai Yuexi jumped in shock and just as she was about to scream out loud, a pair of large hands embraced her tightly.

She cried out in alarm, and as she smelled a familiar scent, her heart inexplicably calmed down.

"Why are you here?"

Li Fengjue hugged her tightly, as if he was punishing her, "Why did you suddenly come back?"

"I miss home." Bai Yuexi replied indifferently.

"That's your home." Li Fengjue's tone was full of arrogance.

Bai Yuexi did not show any weakness, "Your home is your home, mine is mine, and this is my home."

Bai Yuexi could clearly feel that the man's breathing had become heavier. Even if she didn't see his face, Bai Yuexi could still imagine how terrible his expression must have been.

After a long while, she heard his voice, "Don't forget, we are already married. My home is your home."

Hearing these words, Bai Yuexi's heart inexplicably became heavy.

The reason for their marriage was not pure. Although she was indeed somewhat dependent on him and might already have fallen in love with him, Bai Yuexi knew in her heart that the two of them were not from the same world.

Longer pain is less painful than shorter pain.

Since there were some things that already knew the result, he might as well cut the mess as soon as possible. This way, it would be good for both of them.

Maybe because she had just experienced a change in her life, Bai Yuexi felt that her heart had grown by quite a bit.

She gently removed his hand and took a deep breath, feeling the pain in her chest.

Turning her head, staring at his direction in the darkness, Bai Yuexi said with incomparable seriousness, "Isn't the purpose of our marriage the one that helped you get rid of your Xu Family? Now that your Xu Family is over and you have achieved your goal, other than congratulating us, I wish for us to get a divorce as soon as possible. "

She had to put in a lot of effort before she could say these words. Even through the darkness, she could feel his gloomy gaze, as if it could pierce through her.

After a very long time, Li Fengjue did not say a single word. Bai Yuexi felt that Yun Che did not agree because he wanted to give face.

Therefore, he continued, "However, you, as a dignified CEO, surely won't be dumped by a nobody like me. When you want to get divorced, just tell me and I'll go with you to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce."

Now, Bai Yuexi was a little glad that they were in a world of darkness. Because she couldn't see Li Fengjue's face, her heart would not be blocked so fiercely, and she was afraid that if it took too long, she would be unable to let go of the man in front of her.

The air seemed to congeal, the room was very quiet, so quiet that even when needles were dropped, one could hear them, and feel his slowly calming breath, Li Fengjue finally opened his mouth.

"In that case, let's finish the last act."

Hearing this, Bai Yuexi was not as happy as she thought. She nodded and replied softly, "Alright."

She had been tensed up all this while, but suddenly he relaxed and wanted to stand up to switch on the light, but Li Fengjue held her shoulders, "Sit down, I will turn on the light."

The light was turned on, and Bai Yuexi had a smile on her face as she looked at Li Fengjue and said, "Quickly go back, it's getting late."

His face was dark, and instead of leaving, she walked to the side of the bed, looked Bai Yuexi up and down, and asked, "How do you feel? "Does it still hurt?"

Bai Yuexi shook her head, "I'm not in pain."

Giving her a cold glance, Li Fengjue said in a low voice, "Lie down."

"Huh?" Bai Yuexi opened her eyes wide, thinking, could it be that he suddenly became a beast?

Looking at her vigilant eyes, Li Fengjue shot a glance at her, "Are you going to lie down yourself, or do you want me to make a move?"

"But the doctor said I wanted to..." Before she had even said the word "recuperate" and felt his cold gaze, Bai Yuexi had already quickly lied down.

Li Fengjue's slender fingers extended over, and Bai Yuexi subconsciously closed her eyes, suddenly she felt her arm go cold, she wanted to retract her hand, but was stopped by Li Fengjue.

"Don't move!" His deep voice was tinged with anger.

Faintly opening her eyes, Bai Yuexi saw Li Fengjue lowering her head and earnestly helping her wipe away the medicinal ointment. The injuries on her body that could be seen, were all smeared with a cold ointment.

"I can do it myself."

"Actually, this is all because of me. Without me, your current life would have been very peaceful. At the very least, you wouldn't be like now, always getting hurt and kidnapped."

His voice was very calm, but his indifferent expression caused Bai Yuexi's heart to fiercely jump.
