Chapter 31: Take it easy
When Gu Xi is free, he will go over and paint a picture. Sometimes he will be so fascinated by the painting that he can stay up all night without feeling tired.
Si Chaoshen didn't know this was the case at first, and looked for her like crazy. Finally, he saw her in the apartment. His phone was turned off without charging, and she stayed up all night drawing for several nights and fell asleep deeply.
So now that Gu Xi was holding the suitcase, Gu Youyou thought he was going to stay in the small apartment for a few days to relax.
Gu Youyou felt that Gu Xi was very abnormal today.
Thinking of the rumors he heard outside recently, he comforted:
"Actually, it's not a big deal. For men, especially powerful men, it's normal to have several women outside. You have to calm down and be your young lady of the Si family..."
"I want a divorce."
Gu Xi's fingers tightly grasped the trolley suitcase to prevent her voice from trembling.
"What?!"
Hearing these four words, Gu Youyou was more unbelievable than hearing a monkey throwing shit. His old face was distorted, "Gu Xi, you are not mentally ill. You are so good that you can occupy the position of the extremely noble young lady of the Si family."
Sit down, why do you have to get divorced?"
As he finished speaking, he saw from the corner of his eye the divorce agreement drafted by Gu Xi on the table. He grabbed it and read it.
The more he read, the angrier he became, and the more angrily he read, the more he read. Finally, he threw the document directly at Gu Xi's face and cursed loudly: "Have you forgotten the life you lived before? You don't want anything to divorce him! Gu Xi
Xi, I usually push back and forth on any projects I ask you to do, but now that it’s time for divorce, you’re so generous and don’t want even a penny?”
Gu Xi was slapped by the document and his eyes moved, but he remained silent.
In the past few years, if it weren't for the support of the Si family, let alone the brilliance of Gu's business today, it might have been unable to survive and would have been declared bankrupt.
It just so happened that during the past three years when Si Chaoshen was here, she had been his substitute for three years without knowing it, which was enough to make up for it.
As for the shares and property after the divorce, she doesn't want them at all.
Gu Xi was already proud, so in order to save his father's hard work, he had to be obedient and willing to get married.
But it wasn't until today that she saw clearly that she was not sacrificing her own happiness, but her belongings.
They were treated as items by Gu Youyou and sent door to door just to protect his interests.
On the other hand, Si Chaoshen thought she had met true love and treated him wholeheartedly, even becoming pregnant with his child. However, as soon as Bai Yueguang came back, she couldn't wait to divorce her and marry her.
I was kept in the dark like a fool and worked as a substitute for that woman Ning Xixi for three years!
How could she still be involved with them? She didn't want it at all.
"I said, I want a divorce!"
Gu Xi's firm and calm tone revealed years of accumulated grievances and resentments.
Gu Youyou's arrogance was instantly extinguished, but seeing her stubborn look, he thought she was a stupid daughter who had been obedient before, so he raised his hand and slapped her.
Snapped--!
It was firm and heavier than the slap Lin Jiaorou had just received.
Gu Xi closed her eyes tightly, her eyelids trembling.
But I waited and waited, but no pain came from my cheek.
what happened?
She slowly opened her eyes, and in front of her was a shadow.
"Ah...Shen?" Gu Xi looked at the fresh red and swollen slap marks on the side of Si Chaoshen's neck, and a hint of astonishment instantly appeared in his eyes.
Why is he back...
And, it’s so timely.
Just when Gu Xi was wondering, Gu Youyou immediately put away his anger and said politely: "Son-in-law, have you been busy with work recently and need to relax? Don't worry, you can relax as long as you want! Xixi, she
A woman is ignorant and doesn't know that we men also need to be released. But don't worry, I have already persuaded her, and she will never mention divorce again in the future, so you can live a good life!"
Si Chaoshen's dark eyes were locked on Gu Xi, thoughtfully.
"Son-in-law, let's go to the study and I'll tell you something!" Gu Youyou said, about to take Si Chaoshen away.
But Si Chaoshen didn't give Gu Youyou a chance to touch the corner of his clothes, "I just have something to say."
"You say it, you say it, you say it first, I'm all ears!" Gu Youyou's attitude was extremely good.
Si Chaoshen did not continue talking. Instead, he saw the injury on Gu Xi's instep, frowned, and called Sister Wu to get some medicine. He personally applied the medicine to Gu Xi.
As soon as he squatted down, Gu Xi retracted his feet.
Si Chaoshen pursed his lips slightly and said, "The medicine will be ready soon."
He just thought that Gu Xi was losing his temper and refused to take medicine.
On the way home, he heard the servant tell him the whole story, and it was understandable that he would be upset now.
What's more, she was always afraid of pain. He still remembered that the first time they were in bed, Gu Xi's face turned pale and she was almost suffocating from pain.
But even then, she said over and over again, it doesn't matter, she can do it.
Si Chaoshen softened in his heart and coaxed: "Be good, I'll be gentle, I promise it won't hurt you too much, okay?"
Gu Xi's eyes were sore, she didn't know how long it had been since she heard his gentle tone.
She was about to stretch out her legs, but halfway, she remembered why she was injured? She just remembered that he had been taking care of Ning Xixi all night last night.
Maybe he coaxed Ning Xixi like this last night.
I suddenly felt nauseated in my stomach, and I couldn't help but want to vomit.
"Xixi..."
Gu Xi couldn't bear it any longer, got up, pushed Si Chaoshen away, and ran upstairs to vomit.
Si Chaoshen wanted to chase after him, but he stopped thinking of something. Holding a cotton swab soaked in liquid medicine in his hand, he reluctantly watched the figure of the little man disappear around the corner upstairs.
"Master, the young lady didn't get much rest last night. She may be sleepy now. Would you like me to go upstairs and apply medicine to the young lady?"
Sister-in-law Wu reached out and tried to take something from his hand.
Si Chaoshen paused and had no intention of giving it to him. He didn't come back to his senses until Gu Youyou asked him what he wanted from him.
"Sister-in-law Wu, please be gentle."
Sister-in-law Wu had studied nursing before and was very good at taking care of people. Especially if she had a bruise, she knew best how to apply medicine without pain.
Who in the Si family doesn't know that Mrs. Wu has the best skills? Even Si Chaoshen himself knows it very well, but despite this, he still can't help but tell her.
He was afraid that Gu Xi would be in pain.
Gu Youyou curled his lips, deeply disapproving of Si Chaoshen's way of caring for his wife. He was simply unmanly.
But from a father's perspective, he was very satisfied.
Only in this way will he be firmly fed and housed by Gu Xi.
"You are Xixi's father, but I don't want you to use your identity as Xixi's father to pressure her into doing something unhappy."
