"It's nothing, I just watched a TV series recently and saw that the male protagonist actually used the female protagonist as a substitute. How ridiculous do you think it is, right?" Chu Qingxue raised her lips and said to herself.
She looked at her neatly manicured nails, and suddenly the image of Sheng Yanxuan kissing her fingertips flashed before her eyes.
The curve of her mouth widened further and she smiled.
"Tell me, will you be like this too?" she asked him softly.
Sheng Yanxuan's heart suffocated. Is she blaming herself? She still blames herself after all. She never trusted herself?
"I will never let you be my substitute."
After hearing Sheng Yanxuan's decisive words, Chu Qingxue lowered her eyes to hide the disappointment in her eyes.
"That's good."
Sheng Yanxuan tightened her arms around Chu Qingxue slightly, "Qingxue, I won't hurt you."
His voice was very soft, like a feather falling on Chu Qingxue's heart, which was extremely numb.
"I know, we are husband and wife, you won't hurt me." Chu Qingxue leaned shyly on Sheng Yanxuan's shoulder, her mouth curved, looking very happy.
Sheng Yanxuan felt relieved when he heard this, but he didn't see the sorrow, anger and despair in Chu Qingxue's eyes behind her back.
The marriage between them is so fragile that even their relationship cannot withstand scrutiny. There is not even a trace of trust between them.
Now she must disguise herself well and find conclusive evidence before divorcing.
She must make Sheng Yanxuan pay the price!
Chu Qingxue leaned on Sheng Yanxuan's shoulder, her mind spinning a thousand times.
"You have been lying in bed for so long, can I take you out for a walk?" Sheng Yanxuan helped Chu Qingxue and asked considerately.
Chu Qingxue nodded obediently.
She has to pretend to be submissive now, right? Like the canary in his mind, kept in a cage for people to watch.
Sheng Yanxuan helped Chu Qingxue get out of bed slowly and carefully dressed her.
Look how attentive he is.
But seeing the love for another woman through his eyes, Chu Qingxue only felt a stinging pain in her heart, but she still had a bright smile on her face. In conjunction with Sheng Yanxuan's movements, the two of them seemed to be the same.
A sweet couple in general.
Sheng Yanxuan took Chu Qingxue's hand and walked to the garden. The sun shone on them, beautiful and dreamy.
"Don't you like luxury goods? I heard from Zheng Min that there will be a batch of new styles for the New Year. I have arranged for someone to deliver the goods to my home. Can I take you to have a look?" Sheng Yanxuan's voice was gentle, and his eyes were doting.
It cannot be melted in a strong way.
Chu Qingxue looked at Sheng Yanxuan. Seeing him trying to please her so diligently, she felt bitter and unbearable in her heart.
"Okay, as long as you are willing to buy it for me, I like it." Chu Qingxue said coquettishly, but there was a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes.
"Silly girl, I am your husband, so I should buy you things." Sheng Yanxuan reached out and rubbed Chu Qingxue's hair.
Chu Qingxue looked at Sheng Yanxuan's gentle brows, and a sadness suddenly rose in her heart. No matter how he held her hand and walked out, Chu Qingxue's eyes were blank, and her heart was empty, as if something was missing.
Walking into this familiar cloakroom, it was no longer the same mood when I walked in again. Before, every time I came in, I felt that this cloakroom belonged to me, but now I feel that these were given to Su Yingyue by Sheng Yanxuan.
She was just helping Su Yingyue try on these clothes, but Sheng Yanxuan's kindness to Su Yingyue made her go crazy with jealousy.
"Do you like this bag?" Sheng Yanxuan took out a crocodile skin platinum bag inlaid with gems and handed it to Chu Qingxue.
Chu Qingxue pinched the crocodile skin bag, feeling filled with jealousy, "What a beautiful bag."
It's a pity that it won't be yours, right?
When Sheng Yanxuan saw the lonely look in Chu Qingxue's eyes, he felt a dull pain in his heart.
Why does she still look unhappy? Is it because what he just did scared her?
"Qingxue..." Sheng Yanxuan opened her mouth to explain but was stopped by Chu Qingxue.
"I like it very much, but I'm just too tired." Chu Qingxue forced a smile, her face was extremely pale, and there was a layer of sweat on her forehead.
She found that her physical strength seemed to be getting worse and worse. She was out of breath after not exercising for a long time, and she felt weak all over, as if something was blocked in her throat, making it difficult for her to breathe.
"I'll take you home to rest." Sheng Yanxuan said worriedly.
Chu Qingxue shook her head and wanted to stop Sheng Yanxuan.
But her legs were so weak that she couldn't exert any strength, so Sheng Yanxuan could only hold her in his arms.
"Put me down and I'll go by myself."
"Stop trying to be brave, how can you do this?" Sheng Yanxuan frowned and said.
"It's really okay, I can leave."
Chu Qingxue struggled stubbornly, but Sheng Yanxuan refused to give up and could only hold her and walk quickly back to the bedroom.
Chu Qingxue looked at Sheng Yanxuan's serious profile and felt sour and uncomfortable in her heart.
Sheng Yanxuan put her on the bed, took her hand and put it on his chest.
"Qingxue, you are the only one here, I love you, I only love you." Sheng Yanxuan stared lovingly into Chu Qingxue's eyes.
After hearing this, Chu Qingxue's body suddenly stiffened.
Sheng Yanxuan's words were like a bomb roaring and exploding in Chu Qingxue's mind.
Love? Love her? Sheng Yanxuan loves her? How is this possible?
But looking at Sheng Yanxuan's affectionate and focused look, it didn't seem like he was lying to her, which made Chu Qingxue feel huge waves in her heart.
"I know, you don't need to say so much." Chu Qingxue smiled bitterly and lowered her head to cover up the turbulent waves in her eyes.
"I don't need you to express your love for me."
Chu Qingxue's attitude made Sheng Yanxuan's eyes flash with hurt. He looked at Chu Qingxue's profile with red eyes.
"I don't understand." Sheng Yanxuan's hoarse voice sounded.
The knuckles of Chu Qingxue's fists turned pale as she tried hard to suppress the emotions surging inside her.
She slowly raised her head, her eyes clear and indifferent, as if the intense emotion just now did not exist at all.
"I love you. Is that enough?" Chu Qingxue looked directly into Sheng Yanxuan's eyes.
Her eyes are bright, full of determination and tenacity.
Sheng Yanxuan was stunned. He stared at Chu Qingxue in disbelief, as if to verify what she said.
"I'm really tired." Chu Qingxue closed her eyes tiredly.
"I want to be quiet."
Sheng Yanxuan pursed her lips and stared at Chu Qingxue, as if she wanted to see a flower on her face.
Chu Qingxue felt the burning gaze on her face. She couldn't help but open her eyes and met Sheng Yanxuan's searching eyes.
"Can you please stop bothering me!" Chu Qingxue finally couldn't stand Sheng Yanxuan staring at her like this and yelled angrily.
Sheng Yanxuan was stunned for a moment by her sudden irritability.
Chu Qingxue glanced at Sheng Yanxuan indifferently, "I want to sleep."
After saying that, he lay down on the bed regardless of Sheng Yanxuan's reaction and closed his eyes.
