"I'm in Bishui Lanting." Her voice was soft and she sounded like she had no strength.

Qiu Xichen was still in the hotel. He stood in front of the window and looked into the distance. He could see the top floor of Bishuilanting.

"The daily necessities inside have been prepared for you. No one has lived there for a long time. If you don't want to cook by yourself, you can find a hotel to deliver food to you."

Shi Yue was confused, he already lived here, why did he care so much?

She only responded softly, and then asked: "Have you... returned to China?"

He returned to China and was still with Gu Huaian. This was the reason why he never showed up.

Qiu Xichen was silent for a moment before speaking: "I will go back in a few days."

Shi Yue didn't say anything and hung up the phone. She turned to Secretary Jiang and smiled and said, "I'm sorry to trouble Secretary Jiang today, but I don't need any help here."

Secretary Jiang wisely left.

After a busy afternoon, it was dark, but the kitchen utensils were complete, but the refrigerator was empty, without any ingredients, not even rice.

Shi Yue went to a nearby supermarket and came back with large and small bags of things, including vegetables and fruits.

She was alone to eat in the evening, and she only planned to cook a bowl of tomato pasta to fill her stomach.

Shi Yue's cooking skills are pretty good. When he was in the Shi family, Shi Jingwen had a new family and would often take Lin Fang and Shi Qian out for dinner parties. He was always the one ignored.

In order to prevent myself from starving to death, I also learned some cooking skills.

As soon as she came out with the food, she heard the sound of the door lock turning. She felt a chill down her back. Her first reaction was that someone had broken in.

When Shi Yue was thinking about how to respond, the door had been opened, and Qiu Xichen's figure appeared.

It had only been a little over a week, but it seemed like a long time had passed. He looked thinner than before, and his face looked a little haggard.

Seeing her stunned look, Qiu Xichen raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Are you so surprised to see me?"

Only then did Shi Yue come back to her senses. She sat down at the dining table with her dinner, "Is there anything important you have to do when you come here so late?"

Her expression was cold and indifferent, and she had no other emotions except the initial surprise.

Qiu Xichen had just finished his work and drove here by himself. He hadn't even eaten lunch yet, so he sat at the table.

The pasta is wrapped in rich and sweet tomato sauce, as well as mushrooms and beef cubes. It tastes much better than what you find in Western restaurants.

"Any more?"

Shi Yue was about to eat when she heard him asking, "This is the only portion for dinner."

She had no choice but to push it in front of Qiu Xichen: "You eat first, and I'll make a new one."

The pasta was cooked relatively quickly, and by the time she brought out another bowl, Qiu Xichen had already eaten most of it.

The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding, eating in silence, and the cool lighting made the atmosphere more warm.

Everything seems to be very different from the days in the old house.

Qiu Xichen took the initiative to take the empty plates to the kitchen.

Shi Yue quickly followed him. Can he let the third master wash the dishes?

"I'll clean up the kitchen."

Unexpectedly, Qiu Xichen just threw the plate into the automatic dishwasher: "Don't worry about it, someone from the hygiene department will come over regularly."

Shi Yue felt embarrassed for a moment. After wandering around the kitchen for so long, she didn't find the dishwasher.

The two of them returned to the sofa in the living room and sat down. Shi Yue glanced at him twice, met his dark eyes, and lowered his head: "You haven't said yet, why did you come here?"

Qiu Xichen leaned back on the sofa comfortably, turned on the TV, and tuned to the financial news: "Can't I come and live in my own place?"

Too many things happened today, causing Shi Yue to quickly accept the result.

She originally thought she was assigned a separate residence, but in fact she was still living together with Qiu Xichen.

She couldn't understand why she went to all the trouble to move here.

As if he knew what she was thinking, Qiu Xichen said: "Before, I lived there to appease grandpa to recuperate. Now that my body has recovered, I feel more comfortable here. You don't always want to be under the surveillance of the old man, do you?"

?”

What he said is indeed reasonable. For example, sleeping on the same bed for a long time would not be like this if it were not under the old man's nose.

But that was not what Shi Yue cared about. She stood up and said, "If it's just for this reason, I can find a place to live by myself and don't bother Third Master here."

Expecting that she would say this, Qiu Xichen raised the corner of his mouth: "Look for another place. If grandpa comes here, how do you want me to do it? Do you mean to drive you out of the house?"

Shi Yue's face didn't look good.

Qiu Xichen continued: "You can live here with peace of mind as you are doing me a favor and we won't disturb each other."

Shi Yue finally nodded in agreement, hoping that he would do what he said and really not disturb each other.

And the most important thing: "The divorce agreement..."

Qiu Xichen was also prepared: "The divorce agreement has been prepared for a long time, but we can't go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the formalities yet. At that time, my grandfather asked someone to go through the marriage formalities, and it was easy for him to find out."

He used the old man as an excuse, but Shi Yue could no longer say anything to refute, and all roads were blocked.

He also expected that he would accept all this for the sake of the old man's face.

During the night, Qiu Xichen did not leave.

Sleeping in a strange environment, Shi Yue had some insomnia, lying on the bed tossing and turning, with the cold moonlight outside the window casting an icy frosty moonlight.

She simply turned on her phone and prepared to browse her circle of friends.

As soon as we entered, a friend in the circle sent a photo of him having fun in the bar. One of them was hugging a woman in cool clothes. The two were kissing passionately. There was a circle of people cheering and watching the fun. The man kissing was none other than Lu.

Save?

The friend who posted it on Moments is a mutual friend of her and Ye Xingxing, so Ye Xingxing is very likely to have seen the photo.

Shi Yue's expression changed and she immediately sat up from the bed. She dialed Lu Cun's number.

The bell rang for a long time before someone answered it. The person on the other side was very drunk and asked: "Hey, who is it?"

Shi Yue's voice was very cold and stern: "Lu Cun, you just play around with women outside and let people film it like this and post it on the Internet. Have you considered how Xingxing feels?"

Lu Cun heard Xingxing's name and sobered up a little. He smiled coldly: "Who are you to take care of my affairs?"

Shi Yue was really angry. Lu Cun was a carefree person, and he had been even more unscrupulous in doing things these years. Because of Ye Xingxing, he never thought of leaving him.

"I don't have any business with you, but if you want to hurt Xingxing, I will never let you go."

Shi Yue didn't want to waste time on this scumbag. After hanging up the phone, she called Ye Xingxing again.
