After the divorce, she disappeared overnight

Chapter 120: You know shit. If you know that, why are you still bullied?

After entering the house, Jiang Yi changed into slippers and walked into the house. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.

She looked at Shi Lu, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

He said softly, "Alu, you don't have any change of clothes here, why don't you go back."

Shi Lu frowned slightly, seeming a little surprised by her words.

He poured a glass of water and handed it to her, saying at the same time: "Wife, why are you suddenly so repulsive to me? Did I do something wrong?"

She quickly shook her head and explained, "No, I'm just worried that it would be too much trouble for you."

He smiled, held her hand gently and said, "It's no trouble. I'll have some clothes sent over tomorrow morning."

After hearing his arrangement, she had no choice but to nod.

However, deep down, I couldn't find a suitable reason to drive him away.

In that case, let's just let it be.

"Honey, do you want to take a shower first or should I?"

Shi Lu's words almost made her choke while she was drinking water.

She coughed a few times and her cheeks turned red instantly.

Seeing this, he patted her back with concern and asked softly, "Drink slowly."

After her breathing stabilized, she took a deep breath and replied, "You go first."

After saying that, she turned her head silently, not daring to look him in the eye.

Shi Lu nodded and walked into the room.

Looking at his departing back, Jiang Yi couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of tension in his heart.

She muttered to herself, this was obviously not the first time, why was she so flustered?

In order to calm herself down, she took a few sips of the water in the glass, then stood up and walked to the wine cabinet to pour a glass of red wine.

Holding the wine glass, she slowly walked towards the balcony.

Standing there, looking at the scenery outside the window.

Except for the faint light from the street lamps, it was almost pitch black all around.

In this quiet moment, her thoughts drifted away...

Thinking back on the past few years, she was filled with emotion.

She hasn't been home for a long time since she resolutely left home because of her rebellious adolescence.

That impulsive decision has now plunged her into deep conflict.

She didn't know what impact this choice had on her family, and she didn't dare to imagine it.

She was afraid to face her family and felt ashamed to go home. She was also worried that the freedom she had longed for would be taken away from her.

At first, she studied business out of love, but as time went on, she gradually developed a dislike for the subject.

She didn't like managing the company's affairs, so she chose to run away from home, trying to prove that even if she left the family business, she could still support herself in other ways.

However, the reality is so ironic that she eventually joined the Huo Group and lived a nine-to-five life like ordinary people.

Just then, a gentle voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Wife, what are you thinking about? Why are you so engrossed?" The man gently hugged her from behind.

The coolness emanating from him made her shiver involuntarily.

"Why are you taking a cold shower again?" Jiang Yi turned around, stared at him and asked.

Shi Lu knew that he couldn't hide it, so an awkward smile appeared on his face.

He gently stroked the tip of his nose and responded in a low voice: "Wife, I need some cold water to cool down."

"You..." Hearing this, her eyes involuntarily glanced down at his body, and her cheeks turned red instantly.

"Wife~How about we go back to the room and take a closer look?"

He tightened his arms and hugged the trembling, slender person in his arms tightly. The veins on his arms bulged and his throat trembled slightly.

"Ahem, shut up!"

"Hey, I was just joking, honey, why are you drinking?"

The man's eyes fell on the empty wine glass in her hand, and a hint of dissatisfaction appeared on his face.

"It helps me sleep." Her answer seemed casual.

"Hmm? Will you still suffer from insomnia with me by your side?" Shi Lu seemed dissatisfied with this answer.

"No." Jiang Yi's eyes were evasive.

"Wife, you didn't tell me the truth. You have something on your mind." Shi Lu stared at her closely, trying to see through her true thoughts.

"I went to take a shower."

Jiang Yi quickly broke free from his arms and walked quickly into the room.

Looking at her lovely appearance as she walked away, the corners of the man's mouth slightly raised.

His gaze rested on the wine glass on the table, and there was a kind of emotion in his eyes that was difficult to interpret.

Not long after, he returned to the room and dived into bed.

The sound of water splashing in the bathroom makes people imagine a lot.

……

The door opened slowly, and Jiang Yi, wearing a thin nightgown, walked out gracefully.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and time seemed to freeze.

"You, why haven't you slept yet?" Jiang Yi's voice trembled a little.

"Waiting for you~" The man's voice was gentle, and his eyes seemed to be filled with doting.

"Why are you waiting for me? Go to bed, it's getting late." Jiang Yi chuckled, trying to hide his inner uneasiness, and slowly lay down in bed.

"Wife, are you afraid?" His eyes were sharp, as if he could see through her thoughts.

"Huh? What am I afraid of? Nothing, just go to sleep."

Jiang Yi denied it verbally, but his body moved involuntarily towards the bed, as if he would fall off the bed if he moved a little more.

"Wife~" Shi Lu suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled hard, and Jiang Yi was pulled into his arms without any preparation.

"You're nervous."

"No, no, I was scared today. I thought I would stay in there all night."

Upon hearing this, his eyes instantly turned cold, like an extremely sharp sword, which made people feel frightened.

He gently stroked her smooth cheek, then put his lips close to her ear and said in a soft but firm voice: "I am here. If anyone dares to offend you in the future, you will fight back immediately. Don't be afraid of anything. Do you understand?"

She nodded slightly to show her understanding and responded softly, "I see."

However, he couldn't help but frown and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "You know nothing. If you know, why are you still bullied?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yi immediately sat up straight, stared at him with wide eyes, and retorted coquettishly: "You scolded me!"

He smiled helplessly, stretched out his hand and gently pinched her cheek, and said lovingly: "If I don't scold you, will you remember it?"

Jiang Yi snorted lightly to express his dissatisfaction, but he actually felt a little sweet in his heart.

"Okay, don't be angry anymore, go to sleep."

After saying that, he gently pulled her into his arms, let her head rest on his broad shoulders, and rested his chin on her fragrant neck, his hot breath blowing on her delicate skin.

"Ouch, it itches~"

Jiang Yi was amused by his actions and started to twist her body.

The man didn't say anything, but just stared down at her silently.

His eyes were deep and blazing, as if burning with an unquenchable flame, and those deep eyes did not conceal his longing and passionate desire for her.

Jiang Yi felt his burning gaze, and her face immediately turned red, her heartbeat accelerated, and she clenched the corners of her clothes nervously, stammering, "To-I have to go to work tomorrow..."

"Wife~" he called her in a low voice, with a hint of pleading in his voice.

"I, I'll go drink some water..." Before she finished her words, she quickly stood up and walked quickly out of the room.

Shi Lu looked at her panicked figure fleeing, took a deep breath, and felt depressed in his chest.
