"Maybe you haven't experienced the taste of love until now, right? Do you know that when Nan Chen was with me, he would cook for me with his own hands, and would rush to my side as soon as possible when I was sick? The gentlest thing he ever said was, Xingchen, I hope you will always be happy..."

"Did Nan Chen say he loved you when he was a child? He often told me before, but I always thought he was naive..."

Xia Shi listened silently, thinking back on the three years he had spent with Lu Nanchen.

He has never been in the kitchen once...

When he was sick, he never said a word of concern.

As for love, he never said anything about it.

Xia Shi looked at her calmly: "Are you done?"

Ruan Xingchen was stunned.

He didn't know if it was because Xia Shi was too calm, or because her eyes were too clear, as if she could see into people's hearts.

She couldn't come back to her senses until Xia Shi left.

I don't know why, but at this moment, Ruan Xingchen seemed to have returned to the poor orphan who wanted to receive relief from the Xia family.

Behind the eldest daughter of the Xia family, she is always a clown.

……

How could Xia Shi be indifferent to what Ruan Xingchen said?

She chased the man she had liked for 12 years, and it turned out that she had also been vigorous and liked other people like a child.

His ears started to hurt again. When Xia Shi raised his hand to take off the hearing aid, he found blood falling on it.

Habitually wipe the blood off and put the hearing aid aside.

can't sleep...

Xia Shi turned on his phone and clicked on WeChat.

But I saw Aite’s friend circles one after another.

When she clicked on it, she saw that they were all photos sent by Ruan Xingchen that only she could see.

The first one is a photo of Ruan Xingchen and Lu Nanchen when they were in college. The two were standing together, and Lu Nanchen's eyebrows were so gentle.

The second picture is a chat record between the two. Lu Nanchen said affectionately, "Happy birthday, Xiaochen, I will make you the happiest person in the world."

The third picture shows the backs of Lu Nanchen and Ruan Xingchen walking hand in hand on the beach...

The fourth, fifth, sixth, and even more, countless photos made Xia Shi breathless...

She didn't dare to look down anymore and quickly turned off her phone.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that it was time to give up.

On this day, Xia Shi wrote this sentence in his personal diary.

-I could have endured the darkness, but only if I had not seen the light.

The next day, she went to prepare breakfast as a habit.

But it wasn't until six o'clock passed and Lu Nanchen hadn't come back yet that Xia Cai realized that she had forgotten that he said he would never come back for breakfast in the future.

She thought Lu Nanchen would not come back, so she sat alone on the sofa and fell asleep lightly.

"Didn't you say you don't need to prepare breakfast for me?"

An impatient voice sounded.

Xia Shi was awakened, opened his eyes, and saw Lu Nanchen walking past impatiently.

She apologized subconsciously: "I'm sorry, I forgot."

I forgot again, and I’m sorry again...

Lu Nanchen turned back to look at her, his eyes extremely cold.

The clothes she wore today were the same light gray tones and simple clothes as always.

It seemed as if he had no money and had been abusing her.

"Why didn't you forget to come back? Why didn't you forget about me and marry you, and why didn't you forget about yourself?"

"You can't part with it, right? You can't let go of the Lu family's money! You can't let go of this money-making machine like me, Lu Nanchen!"

His words were like knives piercing Xia Shi's heart.

Xia Shi lowered his eyes: "Nan Chen, I never wanted to ask for your money."

What she cared about was always Lu Nanchen.

Lu Nan smiled deeply, his smile full of ridicule.

"Then your mother went to the company this morning to beg me to give you a child. What happened?"

Xia Shi was confused.

She looked at Lu Nanchen's cold black eyes and realized that he was not angry at last night.

Lu Nanchen didn't talk nonsense to her.

"Xia Shi, if you want to stay well in the Lu family, and if you want the Xia family to survive, then let your mother be at peace."

He finished speaking in a hurry, went to the study to get something, changed his clothes and left.

……

Don't wait for summer to find Xia's mother.

Xia's mother came to the door by herself. She changed her past indifference. She grabbed Xia Shi's hand and said softly:

"When you were little, why don't you go and beg Nan Chen to give you a child? Even if it's through medical means."

Medical means!

Xia Shi looked at her blankly and listened to her continue talking.

"Ruan Xingchen has already told mom that Nan Chen has never touched you in the past three years."

This may be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

There is never any empathy in this world, there are only respective interests.

Xia Shi didn't understand why Lu Nanchen told Ruan Xingchen about this.

Maybe he really loves her...

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a little relieved.

"Mom. Let it go."

Mother Xia was stunned and frowned: "What did you say?"

"I'm tired. I want to divorce Lu Nanchen..."

"Snapped!"

Before he finished speaking, Xia Shi's mother slapped Xia Shi hard on the face.

Her image of a loving mother was gone, and she pointed at Xia Shi and said word by word:

"What qualifications do you have to say divorce? After leaving the Lu family, who do you think you, an unhealthy and second-married woman, can marry?!"

"How could I have such a useless daughter like you! You are nothing like me! If I had known better, I shouldn't have taken you back!"

Xia Shi seemed to be numb.

Ever since she was a child, Xia's mother had disliked her.

Xia's mother is a well-known dancer.

However, the daughter she gave birth to, Xia Shi, was born hearing-impaired, which was a knotty problem in her life.

Therefore, she cruelly left Xia Shi completely in the care of a nanny, and did not let Xia Shi return to Xia's family until she was old enough to study.

In the past, Xia Shi heard her teacher say that no mother would dislike her child.

So she worked hard to become as good as possible and please her mother as much as possible.

Even though she is hard of hearing, she is among the best in dance, music, calligraphy, painting, language, etc.

But it wasn't until now that she understood that no matter how well she did, she was not a good daughter to Xia's mother.

Just like Xia's mother said, she is an unhealthy person.

It’s not just the body that’s not healthy, it’s also family and love...

After Xia Mu left.

After Xia Shi covered the bright red palm prints on his face with foundation, he took a car to the law office alone.

Inside the office.

Jiang Mingche, Xia's father's legal counsel before his death, took the authorization letter from her. After reading it, he looked at her, confused.

"Do you really want to give all of the inheritance that Mr. Xia secretly left you to Lu Nanchen? You should know that he is not short of such a small amount of money."

Xia Shi nodded.

"I know, but I owe him this and I must pay it back."

Three years ago, Xia's father died unexpectedly.

He had made three wills before his death. Knowing that Xia's mother did not care for her daughter, he asked lawyer Jiang to tell Xia Shi the last will in private.

The last will was written to be used three years after Xia Shi's marriage, if she felt unhappy or wanted to have her own career without relying on others.
