An Xia was frightened and turned around in horror. Lu Beichuan was standing behind her with a bath towel wrapped around his lower body.

Water was dripping from the wet hair tips, and there was a hint of cunning in the slightly upturned eyebrows.

An Xia was stunned for a moment, her mouth slightly open and her eyes blank.

Didn't he go out to look for Ming Xiyu? Why is he here?

"You were taking a shower just now?"

Lu Beichuan looked her up and down, and finally his eyes rested on her head with indescribable disgust.

"otherwise?"

An Xia licked her lips.

She knew she was asking a nonsense question, but she didn't know how to ask the next question.

I can't tell him directly that I just judged him by my own standards and thought you were playing a trick on me by saying one thing in front of me and another behind my back, so I went out to look for Ming Xiyu again.

"Do you have something to talk to me about?" Lu Beichuan lifted up his drooping hair. Without the bangs covering it, his perfect hairline was revealed. Compared to his usual calmness, he looked more seductive and feminine.

An Xia's face froze for a moment, but she quickly forced a smile and said, "Nothing, nothing. I'll go back first."

An Xia said as she backed away.

"Are you sure everything is alright?" Lu Beichuan followed leisurely.

The two pairs of legs, one long and one short, walked in the same rhythm. Unknowingly, the distance between them was shortened a lot.

He suddenly raised his hand and closed the half-open door. The sound of the door closing behind him made An Xia tremble. She no longer paid attention to her feet and leaned back subconsciously, sticking to the door panel. The next second, Lu Beichuan leaned over and pressed down.

The distance that was originally one elbow away was compressed to only three inches.

"You, you..." Looking at the handsome face approaching, An Xia's breathing quickened and her heart beat wildly.

"Feel uncomfortable sleeping in the guest room? Want to move back to the master bedroom?" Lu Beichuan smiled teasingly.

Looking at the relaxed curve of his lips, An Xia's heart trembled, and her thoughts were pulled back to many years ago.

It's been a long time since he showed such a relaxed look in front of himself.

An Xia didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that Lu Beichuan seemed to have changed a lot today. He put away his cold temper and was no longer so cold to her. Although he was still not as close and gentle as when they were children, this was the best day for him in recent years.

"You're still not feeling well and you're scared to sleep alone in the guest bedroom, so you want to come and find me to keep you company?" Lu Beichuan bent his neck and moved his head closer.

The woody scent of the bath water drifted closer, and An Xia's heart skipped a beat. She was afraid of falling in love, so she didn't dare to look Lu Beichuan in the eye and turned her head away.

"You think too much. I just, I just heard the sound of a car and thought you went out." An Xia found a suitable excuse to ask the doubts in her heart.

Lu Beichuan glanced out the window and said, "I asked someone to send Aunt Liu back. Grandma hasn't been in good condition recently, and she needs her close care."

It was because of the accidental injury by Lu Jingyang last time.

The health of the elderly is not as good as that of the young, and they always recover slower.

"Oh." An Xia lowered her head.

It turned out to be the case.

The suspicion just now was indeed her conspiracy theory.

But it's true, Lu Beichuan shouldn't be so idle to do these little tricks behind the scenes. He is not Ming Xiyu, how can he have such little thoughts.

"Come find me when you hear the car sound," Lu Beichuan said with a slightly raised tone, as if he had sensed some other meaning from this sentence.

"Are you afraid that I'll go out?"

An Xia lowered her head: "No."

After answering, she was afraid that Lu Beichuan would continue to ask questions, so she turned around and left: "I'm going back first, you should go to bed early."

She spoke in a hurried tone. Lu Beichuan had watched her grow up, so he naturally knew that she was in a hurry to hide.

He grabbed An Xia by the back of her collar and held her like a chicken, not letting her go.

"If not, then why did you come to see me?" The more Lu Beichuan thought about An Xia's attitude, the more he felt that there was something wrong with it. He thought about it carefully and asked, "Are you worried that I would go out to look for Xi Yu?"

An Xia didn't know which emotional line she had misconnected with again. She was originally quite ashamed, but when she heard Lu Beichuan only call her Xiyu, her mood suddenly turned bad.

It’s as if the hormones in the body are controlled by an unknown god, and the emotions are always surging and changing out of control.

"Yes. After all, you have a long criminal record." Since he had already guessed it, he would definitely not believe her even if she explained it again, so An Xia simply laid her cards on the table.

But after that, he still proudly found a perfunctory excuse for himself: "Although we are getting divorced, we are still in the marriage period. I don't want to be cuckolded at this time. It will affect my mood."

Lu Beichuan stared at her.

His calm and rational gaze was not affected by what she had just said.

"I thought I had made myself clear enough."

An Xia was stunned.

What?

Are you worried about her stomachache so you don’t go out to look for Ming Xiyu?

Seeing her expression pause, Lu Beichuan knew that she had remembered, so he didn't repeat himself.

"I've said that everything between Ming Xiyu and I is clean and there are no moral or ethical issues. She sometimes feels uncomfortable and I worry about her only because I'm worried about the baby in her belly."

After saying that, Lu Beichuan added.

"That child is not mine. But I must be responsible for that child."

An Xia frowned: "Why?"

Since it has nothing to do with him, why should he be responsible for it?

Lu Beichuan lowered his eyes: "It's hard to explain this matter in a short time."

An Xia felt very disappointed.

That's it again.

"If you can't explain it clearly, don't say it. Anyway, we will get divorced sooner or later, so you don't have to tell me everything."

Hearing her cold attitude, Lu Beichuan couldn't help but get angry.

"Why are you holding on to something that doesn't matter?"

"You're my husband, and you're going to have a child soon, and you call this an insignificant matter?!"

Veins bulged on An Xia's neck, and her eyes were dyed red with anger as she accused him of being outrageous.

After venting, An Xia took a long, deep breath, turned his head, suppressed the anger that kept rising in his chest, and chuckled mockingly.

"But I'm not surprised that you think this way. Anyway, you've never taken me seriously, so anything about you has nothing to do with me. It doesn't matter if you don't tell me or hide it from me."

Lu Beichuan looked at her cold profile, with all kinds of emotions surging in his eyes. His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he pursed his rosy lips until they slightly opened, and said coldly: "Are you different too?"

An Xia turned around and looked at him with a frown in confusion.

"You have taken the initiative to tell me so many things over the years." Lu Beichuan said.

An Xia loosened her clenched hands.

"Aren't you still hiding it from me?" Lu Beichuan continued. His usually calm eyes were slightly red. His clenched jaw was trying to suppress the resentment that had accumulated in his heart over the years.

Hadn't the relationship between her and Lu Zixing always been unclear?
