C293 My Heart Turns Cold When I Lose My Soul

Xiao Yichen subconsciously looked at the time. It was already past 12 o'clock.

Apart from the time they reached the peak of the pagoda, it was also around eleven o'clock when they returned home. It was really, really late.

"When did you wait at the entrance of the neighborhood?" Xiao Yichen asked casually.

"Eight o'clock. Little Chen is on duty. He came back on patrol at eight o'clock. He chatted with me for a while. You came back as soon as he left. Hehehehe. " Pei Luoluo also spoke in a calm tone.

However, her last laugh was somewhat forced. Xiao Yichen also knew that she was actually lying.

Because Chen Sheng had returned at eight o'clock today on patrol, but it was him who got off work.

He really asked casually, but before the matter, he seriously investigated and asked, just as Pei Luoluo left to cook.

The duty room said that Pei Luoluo was waiting at the entrance of the community at 7: 30. Because there was usually no one there, and Xiao Yichen specially instructed people to protect her, so Pei Luoluo's movements were all noticed.

Chen Sheng patrolled back at 8: 00 PM and chatted with Pei Luoluo for less than ten minutes. He picked up the phone and left. Then Pei Luoluo stood there all the time, facing the wind alone. She looked at the sky slowly being dyed black before it became completely dark.

"Don't wait for me in the future. You are still pregnant. Rest more."

Pei Luoluo silently nodded in response to Xiao Yichen's concern.

She would not tell him that she only escaped when she saw the news of the live broadcast. She really escaped.

The news said that last night, it was recorded that Xiao Yichen drove a car to a royal family in the United States. In other words, he had purchased large and small scale enterprises in the country in the past month and successfully built his own kingdom within a month. He was also one of the top 100 directors of a powerful enterprise in the country, and he was also the renowned Duke Elvitt of the Royal Family. His most beloved granddaughter, Catherine, had not come out for the entire night after returning home.

Furthermore, it was revealed that this mysterious noble daughter, who had come in person, was Xiao Yichen's girlfriend in the United States. Moreover, the accident that happened back then was also discovered, saying that both of them were in Catherine's car at that time.

Catherine had passed out due to a car accident for more than a year, and Xiao Yichen had been single all this time.

Of course, the higher-ups of the media that Xiao Yichen had bought in the country would not reveal that he had a marriage contract with her not long ago, much less mention that he was married.

Therefore, this man was not married, the woman was not married, and they were in the same room overnight. The result could be imagined.

The whole city was in chaos. Pei Luoluo felt very helpless when she received news that was basically broadcasted on every channel. This must have been arranged by someone. Otherwise, how could every channel be the same? It was not like it was a news broadcast.

It turned out that this was the reason why Catherine did not come to find her. It was because she was too weak. So weak that it was not worth mentioning. This piece of news would take up more of Xiao Yichen's time in the future. It was enough to slowly grind her to death, and Pei Luoluo had no way at all.

How was it? The other party did not come to find her to cause trouble, saying that she had snatched the master's nest and did not play dirty tricks on her like Han Xuanlin did.

Instead, she gracefully and high-profile showed her advantage. Her nobility and her disdain for Pei Luoluo's existence could make her heart beat empty air.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Pei Luoluo's sudden change of mind, Xiao Yichen put down the chopsticks and reached out to touch her forehead.

"No, I might be a little tired. My eyes are blank." Pei Luoluo gently took Xiao Yichen's hand. His palm was gentle and seemed to be burning. Pei Luoluo clenched her hands tightly and felt a little hot.

"It is very late. Go to sleep." Xiao Yichen lifted Pei Luoluo's chin and kissed her gently. He got up and pulled her to the side of the bed.

"You go and sleep first, I'll go and clean up." Pei Luoluo stopped her steps and raised her hand to point at the mess on the small table.

"Mrs Zhang and the rest have all fallen asleep and are going to wake up early in the morning. Don't bother them anymore. I will be done soon. Go and lie down first. I have been tired for the whole day. It has been hard on me. " After saying that, Pei Luoluo did not wait for Xiao Yichen to speak again before she turned around and neatly packed up.

Even though she had to rely on her pregnancy to look like a fleshy body, she actually still had strength.

After all, she had been working all year round to pay off her debts. Other than her brain being good, her mental endurance was also not bad. The only thing she had left was this bit of physical strength.

Xiao Yichen just looked at her back like that. For some reason, he actually felt a little lonely.

The sound of water in the kitchen covered Pei Luoluo's tears, who was washing the dishes. Her sadness was just like the tap water that kept flowing down. She could not suppress it, but it kept flowing.

She never asked what Xiao Yichen was doing every day. He could not say whatever he thought of like a normal husband and wife. If there was anything he did not understand, he could open his heart to tell her.

She felt that she was guessing and guessing Xiao Yichen's thoughts every day. She guessed that the perfume he was wearing represented how far he had progressed with the woman outside. She guessed that he had really worked overtime all night, or had he stayed at the woman's place for the night. He guessed how much he had hidden from her. He guessed that they seemed to be in a harmonious relationship. How much was real!

Pei Luoluo felt that she was becoming more and more different from herself. She began to feel uneasy, suspicious, doubtful, and distrust. All of this came from Catherine's return.

The sound of water continued to flow. Pei Luoluo tilted her head to look at the clear flow of water. Under the light of the small lamp in the kitchen, a warm yellow light gradually appeared.

After an unknown amount of time, perhaps it was because her mind and body had stopped moving that Pei Luoluo did not notice that there was an additional person behind her.

"Young Grandmother?" A soft call startled Pei Luoluo who was holding the bowl in a daze. The bowl in her hand fell to the ground with a clear and ear-piercing shattering sound. It was as if Pei Luoluo's soul lost thoughts had also shattered.

"What is wrong with you?" Mrs Zhang quickly went forward and asked worriedly. She combed her coat and squatted down to clean up the broken bowl but was stopped by Pei Luoluo.

"Mrs Zhang, this is my matter." Pei Luoluo inexplicably said this sentence and stunned Mrs Zhang.

"I broke it. I will do it myself."

Pei Luoluo seemed to be explaining it to Mrs Zhang but Mrs Zhang felt that his words did not sound right.

Suddenly, with a shake of her finger, Pei Luoluo frowned and looked at her right hand that was picking up the broken bowl dregs. There was already a cut on her right hand and fresh red blood dripped down along the tip of her finger. The porcelain bowl also had traces of blood on it.

"Young Grandmother! Let me do it?" Sensing that something was wrong with Pei Luoluo, Mrs Zhang wanted to go and help.

" I already said that I will do my own thing. " Pei Luoluo still spoke unhurriedly as if she did not feel any pain and continued to tidy up.

Then, Mrs Zhang saw more and more wounds appearing on her hands. She did not know whether it was because she did it on purpose or because she really did not care about it and did not see any pain on her face at all.

This kind of Pei Luoluo was so indifferent that it made people's heart turn cold for her and it made people's heart ache even more.
