Chapter 238: The Substitute Lover is on Strike (23)
Cheng Fanli's eyelashes fluttered twice, "My phone was broken, I took it to be repaired."
An atmosphere of silence spread in the living room. Being stared at by those deep eyes, even if nothing was said, there was an inexplicable sense of oppression.
The man looked at Cheng Fanli expressionlessly, "Who is that man?"
The tone was so cold that it could be described as indifference.
"He sent you back?"
Xiao Shuyuan was waiting for someone to come over, but then he saw Cheng Fanli and another person. Both of them were smiling. The man handed her a business card, and Cheng Fanli took it.
Xiao Shuyuan found this scene extremely glaring.
Perhaps due to the influence of his parents, Xiao Shuyuan does not like to fall in love or get married, otherwise he would not have not been in love for so long. He also does not like the people around him, namely Cheng Fanli, to have close contacts with other men. After all, he is the kind of person who keeps himself clean, and Cheng Fanli is the only one around him for all these years.
Xiao's father is a successful entrepreneur, and he and Xiao's mother are in a business marriage. The two of them can't be said to be very affectionate, but they do respect each other.
Later, his father cheated on his wife with his first love, and his mother also found someone else outside.
Xiao Shuyuan's parents have divorced. They said that they had personality incompatibility, and later both of them started families with other people.
They told Xiao Shuyuan that they were divorced on the day he became an adult.
Both of them were quite responsible towards Xiao Shuyuan and never let him lack anything. They even waited until he came of age to tell him about their divorce.
But Xiao Shuyuan had seen with his own eyes both of his parents with other people.
Less than two months after he came of age, his father remarried, and not long after that his mother went to England and later started a new family.
Xiao Shuyuan's relationship with them was neither close nor distant, and was not intimate, but mostly respectful.
As for marriage, he does not want to enter the marriage hall like most people, nor does he have any idea of getting married.
......
After the car drove away, Xiao Shuyuan did not leave. He kept waiting for Cheng Fanli's call, but she didn't call, and she didn't answer even when he called.
It was not until a car drove past that Xiao Shuyuan saw Cheng Fanli's face.
Then, under the gazes of the driver and assistant, Xiao Shuyuan signaled for people to leave.
"I don't know him," Cheng Fanli shook her head. She looked at Xiao Shuyuan's face with a focused gaze. "He took me to the mobile phone store."
Cheng Fanli spoke the truth in a gentle voice.
"My phone was broken after it bumped into him. The screen was broken. I'm still having it repaired at a phone store."
"I took a taxi back."
Cheng Fanli breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one said anything else. It was certainly impossible for her to bring it up.
She patiently told Xiao Shuyuan what had just happened, without asking him why he left her or whether he wanted to end their relationship.
My eyes were a little red because of the rising emotions.
"Yeah." The man looked at Cheng Fanli's slightly red eyes, spoke in a low voice, and withdrew his gaze.
Cheng Fanli then sat next to Xiao Shuyuan. Seeing the subtle changes in the man's emotions, she knew that he did not have the intention of breaking up as he had been thinking about.
With a somewhat aggrieved look, he said, "Brother Shu, you just forgot about me."
“I didn’t even get in the car…”
The tail end of the words disappeared into Xiao Shuyuan's lips, and Xiao Shuyuan kissed the person's lips.
After the kiss, he said, "The villa in Qingjiang Garden is yours. I'll have someone bring the contract over later for you to sign."
He held the person in his arms with his slender hands, without saying anything, as if he was comforting her.
Cheng Fanli was shrouded in a shadow, and Xiao Shuyuan's presence was so close that she could touch him if she just raised her head slightly.
But Xiao Shuyuan was not gentle that night. She still remembered that aggressive kiss that seemed to sweep her away. The man's gaze seemed to want to swallow her up.
"Be good..."
Cheng Fanli only remembered these words the man said.
