After her ex-husband became a Hong Kong entertainment circle tycoon, he put his arm around her waist

Lin Xi's smile froze instantly.

"What nonsense are you spouting here? When did you learn to throw mud at people?"

Lin Xi didn't understand why Nan Shu knew about her faking depression. She felt a little flustered, but she tried her best to remain calm.

"You could say that, but do you think Qi Yuye would believe me?"

"If you don't want to see me, that's fine too. I'll go find Qi Yuye."

After saying this, Nan Shu hung up the phone without any hesitation.

The call was abruptly disconnected, and Lin Xi's heart pounded as she listened to the busy tone on the other end.

What will happen if Nan Shu really tells Qi Yuye?

No, I can't let Nan Shu tell Qi Yuye. She has to get rid of this hidden danger!

Thinking of this, Lin Xi picked up her phone again, found the number from before, and dialed it.

Nan Shu stared at the phone number on the screen, paused deliberately for a moment, and then answered the call.

As soon as the call connected, Lin Xi's voice came through, carrying a hint of urgency.

"I can meet with you, but I'll choose the place."

"You have no right to bargain. I'm the one making demands now. If you're not willing, then there's nothing more to talk about."

Nan Shu's attitude was unusually firm, and she refused to budge in the slightest.

Lin Xi remained silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth.

"Okay, I promise."

Nan Shu had been waiting for Lin Xi to say this, and she curled the corners of her lips into a smile.

"I'll send you the address. See you at 10 o'clock."

Nan Shu hung up the phone and looked at Hmm in front of her.

It's already nine o'clock, she has to go early.

"Okay, you stay here and wait for Mommy to come back, okay?"

Nan Shu knew Lin Xi's personality; Lin Xi would definitely not be obediently threatened by her and might even have some wicked ideas.

Therefore, she cannot take Umum on an adventure.

Hmm, looking up at Nan Shu, shook her head.

"Mom, I want to go with you. I don't want to be separated from you."

"Mmm" hugged Nan Shu's arm, her voice sweet and childlike.

Yes, everything is fine, except for one thing: she's just as stubborn as Nan Shu.

Nan Shu knew that once Enen made up her mind, no one could change it. Thinking that Lin Xi probably couldn't do anything about the place Enen had chosen, she nodded.

"Okay, Mommy can take you, but you have to promise Mommy you won't run around, okay?"

He nodded emphatically, looking very obedient.

Before 10 o'clock, Lin Xi, wearing sunglasses and wrapped up tightly, arrived at the agreed place.

The place Nan Shu arranged to meet was a well-known restaurant in the city. When Lin Xi arrived, the hall was already full of people.

Her gaze swept across the hall, but she didn't see Nan Shu.

Lin Xi frowned slightly, just as she was about to call Nan Shu, when Nan Shu's voice suddenly rang out behind her.

"I didn't expect you to be so punctual."

Nan Shu's tone carried a hint of mockery.

Lin Xi turned her head to look at Nan Shu behind her, her eyes full of vigilance.

"You just arrived?"

"Of course not, I just changed my mind at the last minute. I think that coffee shop next door looks nice, why don't we talk there?"

Lin Xi was taken aback for a moment, then immediately refused.

"I think this place is pretty good."

"What? What have you planned here? Are you trying to kill me to cover your tracks?"

Nan Shu had a smile on her face, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.

Nan Shu's words struck a chord with Lin Xi, and her expression froze for a moment.

Seeing the people coming and going around them, all casting curious glances at them, Lin Xi gritted her teeth and forced herself to speak.

"Let's go to a coffee shop!"

After sitting down in the coffee shop, looking at Lin Xi in front of her, Nan Shu felt a deep sense of emotion.

When she was with Qi Yuye, she had only heard that Qi Yuye had a white moonlight, but she had never met him.

Later, when Qi Yuye returned to China, she met Lin Xi for the first time at the Qi family home. She thought Lin Xi was such a decisive and capable strong woman, but she never expected that Lin Xi would become like this.

"Tell me, why didn't you tell Qi Yuye about my affairs?"

Lin Xi looked at Nan Shu warily.

"I need you to bring the glutinous rice to me; that's my condition."

Nan Shu looked serious and didn't seem to be lying.

Upon hearing Nan Shu's words, Lin Xi laughed and looked at Nan Shu with an arrogant air.

"Your condition is outrageous. You know perfectly well how important Nuomi is to Qi Yuye. Do you think I'll suffer the consequences if Qi Yuye finds out I did this?"

Hmm sat on the seat next to him, holding her phone, with the game music playing intermittently.

Lin Xi glanced at "Mmm," then suddenly seemed to have thought of something.

"You asked me to bring glutinous rice out, not to treat your stupid son's illness, right?"

"What's it to you?"

Nan Shu frowned slightly, somewhat displeased. Nuomi was also her daughter; how could she possibly disregard Nuomi's health for the sake of her son?

Seeing that Nan Shu was about to lose her temper, Enen quickly reached out and quietly tugged at Nan Shu's arm.

Nan Shu tried to calm her anger, recalling the plan that Enen had told her, and a smile appeared on her lips.

"The choice is yours. If you're not worried that Qi Yuye will find out you're faking depression, then you can refuse my request."

"How did you know I was faking depression? I had everything arranged perfectly!"

Upon hearing Nan Shu's words, Lin Qi gritted her teeth and glared at Nan Shu, her eyes filled with resentment.

"It's simple. I didn't have any evidence. I just tried to trick you, but you were too guilty and gave yourself away."

Nan Shu shrugged, but found it somewhat laughable. She hadn't expected Lin Xi to believe her so easily.

Nan Shu's words echoed in Lin Xi's mind, and she immediately felt a buzzing in her head.

A surge of anger welled up inside him, engulfing the last vestiges of Lin Qi's reason.

She suddenly stood up, looked at Nan Shu, and pointed at Nan Shu.

"How dare you lie to me!"

"Didn't you lie to me first?"

Nan Shu raised an eyebrow, somewhat taken aback by Lin Xi's preemptive accusation.

"First you lied to people by saying you had depression, and now you're acting guilty because of it. Isn't it all your own fault?"

Lin Xi clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, and his eyes almost seemed to spit fire.

"Nan Shu, you forced me to do this!"

"I'm going to make you disappear from this world forever!"

Lin Xi suddenly grabbed a cup of hot coffee from the side and splashed it at Nan Shu.

Nan Shu was caught off guard by Lin Xi's actions. Seeing that the coffee was about to splash onto En En, Nan Shu's heart tightened, and she subconsciously used her body to protect En En.

"Snapped!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out, and scalding hot coffee spilled all over the floor, releasing a rich aroma.

Lin Xi's hand was bright red; coffee had accidentally splashed onto it when it was spilled.

But Lin Xi ignored the excruciating pain in her hand and looked up at the man beside her with tears in her eyes.

"Yu Ye, let me explain..."
