Chapter 15
European-style crystal chandelier illuminates the entire living room with splendor. Shen Xiao followed Auntie Zhou downstairs. He looked away from their bedroom, "Sister-in-law Zhou, what does Madam usually do at home?"
Sister-in-law Zhou is happy, has Shen Xiao finally begun to care about his wife? Speaking of which, my wife is really pitiful. She is not in good health and has few friends. She is bored at home all day long. If Miss Bai hadn't made many calls to ask her to go out this time, I don't know how long it would have taken for her to be willing to go out!
"My wife usually likes to read. When she is not reading, she stays alone in her room." In fact, Mrs. Zhou saw Jian You on the balcony on the second floor several times. She stood barefoot on the edge of the balcony. If it weren't for the villa here, The balcony was built relatively high, and Sister-in-law Zhou was a little afraid that Jian You would fall off the balcony like this.
“Hasn’t she been out much recently?”
“No, my wife doesn’t go anywhere except to go to the Shen Mansion to greet Mr. Shen every Saturday.”
Shen Xiao nodded. Jian You was an out-and-out homebody. If it wasn't for Bai Tingting's sake, she wouldn't have participated in such social activities.
“Sister-in-law Zhou, you have a very good sense of the clothes you matched for your wife today.” Shen Xiao sat down calmly and raised his head.
“Master, the wife chose the clothes herself. To be honest, I didn’t even know that the wife still had this dress. I have never seen it before.”
Shen Xiao was stunned when he heard this. However, this dress was given to Jian You three years ago. She had never worn it before, so it was normal for Mrs. Zhou not to know.
Shen Xiao suddenly felt a little happy in his heart.
Jian You slept very deeply this time, and when she woke up, her whole body was sore. After she opened her eyes, she instinctively froze for a few seconds. After realizing that she was still Jian You in the book, she snorted helplessly.
Even though he has a noble status and a lot of money, he might still be able to get a large amount of alimony after divorcing Shen Xiao, but! Could this body be any more delicate? He actually fell asleep in the car and slept all the way to the bed.
If something happened in the meantime, wouldn't she be in trouble?
Jian You lowered his head and glanced at the clothes he was wearing. Fortunately, it was still the same one just now. She sat up from the bed, lifted the quilt, and walked barefoot on the floor.
There are all kinds of pajamas in the cabinet, all of them are lace and ankle-length. Jian You's body was already slender, but wearing clothes like this made her look even more boneless. Her face was pale and sickly, but now she had no choice but to make do with it. There were beige velvet slippers at the door. Jian You put them on, feeling warm on the soles of her feet. I didn't know what time it was at this time, but my stomach was growling with hunger.
Jian You walked along the corridor to the stairs. When she looked up, she saw Shen Xiao sitting on the sofa under the crystal chandelier not far away with his hands spread out, leaning on it leisurely with his eyes closed and meditating.
He looked a little tired, his expression was relaxed, and his aura was much lighter.
But that’s right, after flying for more than ten hours and coming back, it’s really time to rest. Shen Xiao in the novel has his own apartment in the city center, so he probably won't live here.
Jian You went down the stairs with doubts. She was so hungry that her chest pressed against her back, and she just wanted to get something to eat.
The door to the living room has been closed, and the surroundings are quiet. Jian You accidentally glanced at the large European-style hanging clock hanging on the wall. The hour hand was already pointing to eleven o'clock at midnight.
It’s so late, Mrs. Zhou must be asleep.
Jian You thought so, sighed, and went to the kitchen. She deliberately lowered her footsteps and carefully walked slowly and slowly in front of Shen Xiao. Suddenly, a voice called to her.
.
"Huh?" Jian You turned back in the direction of the voice and saw that Shen Xiao had woken up. His eyes were still a little hazy, and he looked at himself with a little scrutiny. There were faint red bloodshot eyes in his deep eyes. .
“Brother?” Jian You called him. In the original book, Jian You always called Shen Xiao this way until the two divorced. Brother...brother...the brother she had longed for since childhood to protect her all her life finally chose to leave. She had no choice. She was sad but could not let go of her final dignity, so she made the decision to divorce.
"Sit down." Shen Xiao pointed to the sofa opposite him and asked Jian You to sit down.
