After the flash marriage, the rich husband reveals his true colors every day
Chapter 160: Death
"Let's talk about it tonight." She pushed Lu Sili away in panic and ran down the stairs as if she was escaping for her life.
She had never been so shy before.
Although Lu Sili teased her every time and she would pretend to be angry, in fact, deep down in her heart she always hoped that he would take the initiative and be as close as ordinary lovers or husband and wife, instead of being like now, when Lu Sili suddenly teased her and almost scared Lian Xi to death.
Lian Xi ran to the yard to get some fresh air, and it took him a while to calm down.
At this moment, she saw a car driving into the yard.
Lian Xi frowned and walked out of the yard.
Isn’t this... Shen Shi’s car?
Could it be... that he has returned to his country?
Thinking of this possibility, Lian Xi became a little excited, and she hurriedly trotted forward.
The car window rolled down, revealing Shen Shi's handsome profile.
He was wearing a black suit and gold-rimmed glasses. His facial features were cool and noble, revealing a mature and steady temperament. He looked particularly calm and charming.
Lian Xi looked at him and couldn't help but raised his lips and smiled, "Hi."
Shen Shi turned around and saw Lian Xi, his expression slightly surprised, "Lian Xi? Why are you here?"
His tone was gentle and his voice was smiling, which sounded very comfortable and pleasant, like the warm sun in winter, instantly illuminating the darkest corner of Lian Xi's heart.
She was filled with emotion and didn't know what words to use to describe her feelings at the moment. She could only look at him silently.
Shen Shi saw her staring at him in a daze and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Lian Xi coughed lightly and calmed down. "It's okay. I just moved here. How about you? When did you come back?"
"I just got off the plane," Shen Shi said, "I was going back to the apartment to rest. I have to go to the hospital for a checkup, so I stopped by your place on the way."
"Oh...I see..." Lian Xi nodded and suddenly asked, "Do you still need to work today?"
Shen Shi looked at her, his eyes flickering, and nodded after a while, "Well, I still have to work on a few projects."
Lian Xi thought about it and proposed seriously: "Then...can I treat you to a meal?"
Shen Shi laughed, "Of course."
The two got in the car and drove away, heading towards the city center.
The restaurant Lian Xi chose is very high-end, with an elegant and quiet environment, suitable for dating.
They sat by the window on the second floor, and Lian Xi ordered two steaks and a glass of red wine.
She handed the wine to Shen Shi and asked, "What flavor do you like?"
Shen Shi took the red wine and laughed softly, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"
"Nothing, I just thought of it suddenly." Lian Xi said, "If you don't like it, forget it. After all... our relationship is awkward now, so it's better to keep a distance."
Shen Shi took a sip of wine, put down the glass, stared at Lian Xi for a moment, and suddenly raised his hand to cover the back of her hand holding the wine glass.
Lian Xi quickly withdrew his hand, "Please respect yourself, I'm already married."
Hearing this, Shen Shi was slightly stunned.
He slowly put down the cup, his expression indifferent and cold, but his tone was still a little gentle, "Don't think about it, I don't mean that."
Lian Xi lowered his eyes and whispered, "I'm sorry, I just don't want to be involved with you anymore. I know you've been helping my family through the hard times, but love requires fate, it can't be gained by one-sided efforts, not to mention... I've already made it clear to you, I don't have any feelings for you between men and women, I hope you don't mind."
After listening to this, Shen Shi raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Are you afraid that I will destroy your family?"
"No." Lian Xi rejected it immediately. "I know exactly what kind of person you are. I don't need to worry about your character. It's just... I really don't have any feelings for you. Instead of forcing myself to be with you, I might as well make everything clear now."
Shen Shi looked at her with deep and distant eyes, as if he wanted to see the most sincere things in her heart through these clean and pure eyes.
After a long while, he curled his lips and smiled, his tone relaxed, "Okay, tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Lian Xi was stunned, obviously not expecting him to be so straightforward, and for a moment he didn't know where to start.
Seeing this, Shen Shi asked again, "You mean to say that you hope I won't disturb your stable and happy life anymore, right?"
Lian Xi nodded, then shook his head. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "That's not the case. In short... I hope we can remain friends. If possible, we can contact each other occasionally, that's all."
"That's all?" Shen Shi repeated these four words, with a strange dark light in his eyes.
After a long while, he nodded and agreed, "Okay, I respect your decision."
"Thank you." Lian Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile gradually spread, and his whole face seemed to be coated with a layer of soft silver light.
Shen Shi stared at her for a moment, and raised the corner of his mouth, "You're welcome."
The two chatted and drank and finished a very pleasant dinner. Before leaving, Shen Shi sent her home.
The car was extremely quiet. The only sounds were breathing and the hum of the engine. Air circulation was somewhat difficult, causing beads of sweat to form on the foreheads of both men.
"We're here," Lian Xi unbuckled his seat belt, turned around, opened the door and got out, while reaching for the driver's seat, "Shen Shi, goodbye."
Her smile was as bright as a flower. Shen Shi saw it and his eyes couldn't help but warm up. He stretched out his right hand and placed his long fingertips on her soft and slender little hand.
Her palms were warm and her skin was delicate. The moment I touched her, it felt like an electric shock, making my heart palpitate.
Shen Shi tightened his grip slightly, pulled her closer, put his thin lips on her ear, and spoke in a deep, mellow voice, "I'll remember to contact you."
Lian Xi blinked her big eyes and said, "Oh."
She pulled her hand back, bent down and waved, "Goodbye"
After saying that, Lian Xi turned around and left. Lu Sili should have returned home. Lian Xi only wanted to stay with Lu Sili now. As for other things, he put them aside for the time being.
Only after watching her graceful figure disappear from his sight did Shen Shi drive away.
Night falls and the sky is filled with stars.
When Lu Sili came out of the shower, he saw Lian Xi sitting cross-legged on the sofa, holding a laptop and typing intently.
"Xixi." He called out, "What are you doing?"
"I'm checking stocks." Lian Xi stopped typing, turned around and smiled at him, then continued to stare at the screen, "I bought two stocks today, I wonder how they will rise..."
Lu Sili came over and took a closer look at the data on the screen.
"Both stocks have fallen sharply?" He frowned. "Why did you think of looking at stocks?"
"Uh... I'm just bored!" Lian Xi shrugged. "I have nothing to do now, so I just check the stocks."
Lu Sili shook his head helplessly, wiped his hair with a towel, and said, "You just moved in, my mother will definitely give you a lot of instructions, so..."
When Lian Xi heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie didn't say anything particularly strange. We are all quite normal."
