C275 His Heart Was Hurt

Besides, if she had the ability to help, why not help her favorite?

"It's nothing, it's just that I'm used to my life without her" Xiao Yichen replied very calmly, as if he was doing something very normal.

"I mean, I didn't have her before, so I don't need her now, right?"

"That's more or less what I meant. I've always lived with my grandfather, and I've been training every day. I've been entrusted with the hopes of the masses since I was young. Old Xiao has been out adventuring. As for her, apart from shopping at home... She did not care about the gathering or paying money. In the entire house, she seemed to be the only one who couldn't find anything to do. And that includes me" Xiao Yichen looked straight ahead. This was the first time he was willing to open his heart to Pei Luoluo and say it out loud. He had no scruples at all.

"So, father-in-law must have been very lonely at that time. Otherwise, Xiao Yimo wouldn't be here."

The inexplicable sadness made Pei Luoluo's eyes look somewhat blurred. She wasn't feeling pity for Xiao Yichen, and her heart ached for him.

He had never enjoyed motherly love since he was young, but in the blink of an eye, he accepted a younger brother who was half the same father and half the same mother. The reason was obviously that his mother wasn't considerate enough to his father, and didn't fulfill the duty of a wife. She did not give her father a solid and reliable backing.

But even if it was his mother's fault, he naturally had to bear the burden of Xiao Yimo's appearance. He had to constantly train himself and make himself cold and inhumane. He had to become someone who did not care about anything.

Other than his own interests, he could only prove the significance of his existence by fighting for it.

Thinking of this, Pei Luoluo seemed to understand why Xiao Yichen was always so cold as a glacier deep in the cave, and why he could remain indifferent about everything.

"If Xiao Yimo's mother did not take the initiative to leave and choose the life of an ordinary person, Old Xiao might not have chosen her."

That's right. Who would be willing to stay by her side all the time? Other than money and power that could make her happy, perhaps she did not need love at all.

What about Xiao Yichen's father? Such a big business had already made him mentally and physically exhausted. He did not even have a trace of comfort when he came back. Who would be willing to return to which home? Who was unwilling to find a gentle home?

Even if it was exchanged with money, it was better than the coldness at home.

Money was obviously such a superficial thing, but it was also so bewitching, making people forget their original intentions.

"Xiao Yichen, when I fell in love with you, it was the time when you were the most hesitant to have nothing. When I met you, I was already the richest man in a region. When I was with you, you have become the heir to the Xiao's, one of the most powerful multinational companies in the country.

Strictly speaking, I am not a wife who started from nothing. I am also a woman who watched you walk step by step towards glory. I wonder if I can be fortunate enough to spoil you for the rest of your life? I don't love vanity and power, but I want the most precious thing in your possession. Can you... give it to me?"

The question that fell between Pei Luoluo's lips and teeth caused her to fall into a kind of indescribable feeling. That kind of dilemma that she wanted to know but was afraid to know, inadvertently revealed itself in this inappropriate atmosphere.

Perhaps, she was also afraid. She knew why Xiao Yichen was cold and afraid. One day, that divorce agreement was placed in front of her eyes, and they would be separated from each other and hurt each other.

"Is this your third question?" Xiao Yichen suddenly asked. Pei Luoluo, who was sitting in the back seat, was stunned for a second and then shook her head.

"No, not really. You don't have to answer. I like to answer my own questions. " Pei Luoluo shrugged bitterly and looked out the window.

"Then, did you get the answer after answering your own questions?"

Pei Luoluo was a little confused and turned to look at Xiao Yichen. He was still focused on driving the car. The expression on his face was calm, as if he did not care at all, but also seemed to be doing it on purpose.

"Yes... It must be the most perfect answer to follow one's heart."

"Un."

Mhm? Pei Luoluo raised her eyebrows. What did Xiao Yichen mean by that?

Was it to answer the question just now, or was it to agree with what she said?

However, he did not have any intention to continue. Suddenly, Pei Luoluo felt like she wanted to rush forward and strangle him by his neck. She shouted, Can you finish what you want to say? Was it very satisfying to whet one's appetite? "

It was not hard to guess the final outcome... Pei Luoluo sat quietly in the back seat. She had yet to vent her anger. In the middle of the night, the two of them did not stay in Xiao house and drove home in silence.

When they returned home, it was already past one o'clock in the morning. Mrs Zhang had not slept yet. She put on her jacket and rubbed her arms outside the door with both hands as if she had waited for a long time.

"Mrs Zhang, why don't you go in?" Xiao Yichen took a step forward first. A trace of displeasure flashed across his face.

"Oh, I received a call from my master that you are going home tonight. I was afraid that you did not bring the keys."

After saying this, Mrs Zhang's face turned red. This house seemed to be all fingerprint locks and did not need keys.

Knowing that she was worried, Xiao Yichen did not say anything and nodded slightly. He pulled Pei Luoluo into the house.

Perhaps it was because she had been struggling for a day and her body was getting heavier and heavier, Pei Luoluo was more likely to be tired.

"You are more sleepy than before. Why don't I see you growing flesh?" When Xiao Yichen finished bathing and came out, Pei Luoluo had already fallen asleep.

Xiao Yichen looked at her sleeping face and looked at her carefully for a long time. He found that she really did not look like she was five months pregnant. In general, she still looked very thin.

She lay on her side and left two-thirds of the space for Xiao Yichen. The clothes that she had changed into had already been taken out for Mrs Zhang. Beside the bed was the clothes that he had changed into the next day.

Xiao Yichen walked over and took a look. Even the pin on his tie had been prepared for him.

He could not remember when it had started. He had thought that it was the most common thing, but Pei Luoluo had secretly taken care of it. But he naturally accepted it and got used to it.

Pei Luoluo woke up early in the morning, but Xiao Yichen seemed to wake up earlier than her every time and was already eating breakfast downstairs.

"Yo, it's rare to get up so early. What do you want to do?" Xiao Yichen looked up at Pei Luoluo. He saw that she was dressed professionally and her hair was tied up with a hairpin. She looked energetic.

"I want to go to the People's Hospital in the city." Pei Luoluo sat down and picked up a piece of cheese with some blueberry jam and put it into her mouth.

"I'll ask the driver to send you later."

"Okay, okay."

Xiao Yichen seemed to be a little worried before he went out. He specifically reminded him, "Don't stay too long. Call me if you need anything."

Pei Luoluo nodded, got in the car, and left first.

She had been worried about Lyi Zihan's condition since last night. She thought that she would wait until dawn before going out early in the morning. However, her body was very tired. She woke up more than seven o'clock.

If she rushed over now, it would probably be around nine o'clock. She did not know if Lyi Zihan was still in the ward or if she had already been discharged.

Unexpectedly, just as she walked into the front desk to inquire, she saw Zhang Chen coming out of the elevator with an old man with some white hair. The three of them bumped into each other.

"Aiya, isn't this my future granddaughter-in-law? Hahahaha..."
