Let her be arrogant

"Qingqing."

Xi Yu stared at her with bright eyes, as if there was a tail wagging happily behind her.

"Have you...forgive me?"

Sheng Lanqing pursed her lips and said, "You should know that even without Li Ruoshui, we still have to separate."

She and Xi Yu are both unexpectedly stubborn. When two equally strong people come together, they are bound to end badly.

Xi Yu was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "Qingqing, I want to smoke."

Sheng Lanqing forced him to quit smoking, and of course he was willing.

His addiction to her was worse than those cigarettes and cigars.

"If you want to smoke, just go out and smoke."

Sheng Lanqing paused and said calmly: "I also have two new packs here, specially for entertaining guests."

Xi Yu's heart throbbed, and she forced a smile and said, "I don't want to have it now."

"actually……"

Seeing his pain, Sheng Lanqing spoke slowly: "Can't you really tell me why you hate marriage and children?"

"I can say."

Xi Yu had no intention of hiding it. She would never want him again no matter what.

Instead of doing this, it is better to take this opportunity to speak out, maybe there will be a turn for the better.

"My mother is Xi Yi's first wife. We met when we were in college. They are both well-matched and a perfect match."

"Xi Yi is very kind to her and loves her very much."

"Grandpa didn't agree with their marriage, so she severed ties with them, eloped to Xi's house, and had a relationship with Xi Yi before the marriage."

"The first time, it was an ectopic pregnancy. She was heartbroken and insisted on having a baby. She got pregnant a second time and miscarried within two months."

"The third time it was an ectopic pregnancy, followed by the fourth, fifth, and sixth times."

"Xi Yi is an only child, so of course she wanted a son. So she took a lot of medicine, had many injections, and finally had an in vitro fertilization, which was me."

Xi Yu's tone was unusually calm, as if he was telling an unrelated story.

"For the sake of Xi Yi, she cut off her long hair and tried to use all the blood and essence in her body to conceive a son, but she didn't realize that the beauty she was famous for back then had withered away time and time again, and her appearance had already become withered."

"Xi Yi cheated on her. His son is two years older than me. He called her salt-alkali land and laughed at her for being addicted to giving birth. It's funny, isn't it?"

Sheng Lanqing turned sideways, held his shoulders, looked into his eyes solemnly, and said seriously: "It's not funny, not funny at all."

Xi Yu's biological mother's starting point was not wrong in the first place.

In order to maintain her family and desperately hold on to the love that had long since ceased to exist, she bravely made many, many efforts.

"But she chose the wrong person, fell in love with the wrong person, and also forgot the principle of stopping losses in time."

"Adults should be responsible for their own choices and avoid harming their loved ones due to their own decisions."

This is the reason why Sheng Lanqing has been reluctant to get back together with Xi Yu.

She can indulge herself, drink water and drink affectionately, and squander the youth and joy of the past few years wantonly.

But... what will she have after these few years are over?
She likes him but doesn't trust him.

Like and trust are never equal weights on both sides of the scale.

"Yes, you are right."

Xi Yu twitched her lips. If she had Sheng Lanqing's temperament, she probably wouldn't have to be so crazy.

He couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at her: "I often wonder, what would you do if you were in her situation?"

"It didn't dawn on me until today. You would never put yourself in a situation like that."

"But Sheng Lanqing," Xi Yu smiled helplessly, "I'm not him, and I won't do this to you." Sheng Lanqing looked away, unwilling to look at his haggard appearance, and said word by word: "But you know , they were also pledged to each other back then."

"And my... mother," Sheng Lanqing lowered her eyes and said softly, "I was coaxed away by his sweet words back then."

"Xi Yu, we are not suitable at all."

Xi Yu felt a severe headache and her heart was numb with pain.

He was desperate and no longer knew what to do to save Sheng Lanqing.

Even though she was sarcastic to him like in the past, it was better than now, and she didn't seem to care at all.

"What kind of man do you like?"

He looked at her steadily and asked.

"Gu Huairuo? Fu Qingheng? Or Zhang Ming? I can learn from them all, and I can change them all."

"Sheng Lanqing," he said almost pleadingly, "don't leave me, don't be with them. I don't want to give you to others, and I don't want to see you smiling at other men."

And in the end, his prayer only received a word.

Sheng Lanqing stood up, turned her back to him, and said in a low voice: "Xi Yu, don't do this."

At that moment, he suddenly had the urge to break the jar.

"My so-called mother also asked Xi Yi to have a physical examination, and the conclusion was that there was nothing wrong. But not only was she having a difficult pregnancy, but so were several of Xi Yi's mistresses."

"So I have always suspected that I would suffer the same retribution as him, but my revenge would be on the body of the woman I like."

"I didn't want to be like this, but I found out that you still seemed to be expecting a child, so I hid it."

Xi Yu also stood up, cautiously approached Sheng Lanqing, tentatively hugged her, and explained: "I didn't mean to hide it from you. I thought of many ways, checked my body, and went to many hospitals. It also took a lot of money. If I use half of my wealth for charity, God will always favor me."

Sheng Lanqing felt his actions, but remembered the news report not long ago that he had donated more than 5 billion, and also set up a charity fund to donate to different projects.

But when she asked him, he just smiled and brushed it off.

It was said that in order not to affect the normal operation of the group and cause more people to lose their jobs, they only used their personal savings and left half for emergencies.

She often heard about donations from entrepreneurs, so she didn't take it to heart.

This was Xi Yu's own money, and as long as he didn't use it to eat, drink or gamble, she didn't care.

"Xi Yu..."

Sheng Lanqing thought for a while and said softly.

"I……"

Just as she was about to relent, Xi Yu hurriedly interrupted and begged: "Can you let me hold you for a little longer, just for a little while?"

Sheng Lanqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and suddenly asked in confusion: "What do you like about me?"

"I do not know."

Xi Yu said dullly: "At first, I thought that I couldn't let you go and treat me well regardless of your status. But then..."

"I found that even if you don't love me anymore, I still like you. In fact, I also think there is something wrong with my brain."

"You are not the only woman left in the world. There are countless more beautiful, smarter, and gentler women than you."

"But why? I just can't let you go?"

Sheng Lanqing pulled his hand away, turned around, and said seriously: "You are wrong about one thing."

"I know," Xi Yu quickly answered, "You are the most beautiful, smartest and gentlest girl in the world. No one can compare to you."

"That's not it," Sheng Lanqing said with a chuckle, "Of course I am the most unique. As for whether I am the best, what does it matter?"

"Didn't you say that no matter how good they are, you still don't like them?"

Sheng Lanqing stood up on tiptoes, kissed Xi Yu gently on the lips, looked at his eyes that suddenly regained hope, and said softly: "I don't love you, and I have always liked you."
