Chapter 4: He's not calling me husband anymore?
Wen Shuyi's voice was soft.
Her breath tickled his neck, a tantalizingly itchy sensation.
Sheng Ting felt a strange stirring in his heart.
I didn't make things difficult for her.
The necklace was returned.
"Since this thing is so important, then keep it safe from now on. Don't put it around a man's neck just because you feel good."
Wen Shuyi didn't expect Sheng Tingwang to be so easy to talk to.
"Thank you, Third Master."
Sheng Tingwang chuckled, "Not calling me 'husband' anymore?"
It's no exaggeration to say that before those words even landed, Wen Shuyi's face was already as red as a steamed shrimp.
Her face flushed, she pulled away from his embrace.
Clutching the necklace, she ran out.
I just walked out.
He bumped headfirst into Sheng Li.
"Wen Shuyi?"
Sheng Li was puzzled and frowned.
Looking over, one could actually see Sheng Tingwang sitting in the living room.
"Wen Shuyi, why is your face so red? No, what are you doing here? What did you and... what did you do with him?"
A series of questions.
This disgusted Wen Shu. "What right do you have to tell me what to do?"
"What's that in your hand? Let me see." Sheng Li saw Wen Shuyi's necklace, and then, thinking of the man inside, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. "Did he give it to you? Wen Shuyi, what have you been doing with him behind my back? With him..."
Wen Shu also refused.
She took two steps back. "Don't put it so harshly. We've already broken up. I don't need to explain to you what I do."
"Wen Shuyi, you're acting like a guilty thief."
Sheng Li went to snatch it.
Wen Shu also hid.
She quickly put the necklace around her neck. "Mind your own business."
Wen Shu also had to leave.
Sheng Li wouldn't allow it.
The tall man with long arms ripped off the necklace that Wen Shuyi had just put on her neck.
He raised his hand as if to throw it.
"No..." Wen Shuyi screamed uncontrollably, "...Sheng Li, I beg you, please don't..."
Overwhelmed with anger, Sheng Li ignored Wen Shuyi's plea and threw himself down heavily in a willful manner.
When Wen Shuyi went to catch him, Xiang Lian missed her palm.
The crystal pendant hit the ground with a crisp sound and broke in two.
"don't want……"
Wen Shu also failed to catch it.
The crystal shattered.
The photo of my mother inside the crystal was also broken.
Like the glass carving that Mimi shattered.
He didn't care at all about anything that was important to her.
A gash was cut into her heart, and blood gushed out.
Heart throbbing.
Numbness in the limbs.
With red-rimmed eyes, Wen Shuyi carefully collected the broken crystal pendant piece by piece.
It was held tightly in my palm.
As if afraid of losing it.
The sharp edges of the broken crystal cut her palm, and drops of blood seeped into the crystal before dripping from her fingertips...
She slowly stood up, raised her hand and slapped Sheng Li, "You're a bastard."
That slap stunned him.
Reason has returned.
The apology that was about to come out was swallowed back down because of this object of unknown origin.
"You hit me for this piece of junk...? This thing, he gave it to me, didn't he, Wen Shuyi, tell me, didn't he...?"
Sheng Li is like a victim.
He grabbed Wen Shuyi's arm and shook it violently.
The words were not finished.
Sheng Li was kicked three meters away by a powerful foot.
The footprints of the leather shoes were clearly imprinted on the white shirt.
After the person crashed onto the grass, he gasped for breath five or six times in pain before finally catching his breath.
Sheng Tingwang made a sudden move.
It was as if it confirmed his relationship with Wen Shuyi.
A look of ruthlessness, as if betrayed, rose on Sheng Li's face.
"Sheng Tingwang, you scoundrel who only eats the grass near his own nest! Grandpa brought you back and raised you, and this is how you behave?"
Sheng Li coughed, spitting out blood. "When Grandpa comes back, I will definitely demand an explanation."
He wasn't going to suffer a loss, so he clutched his heart and staggered away.
Sheng Tingwang withdrew his deep, cold gaze and looked at Wen Shuyi's bleeding hand.
His voice was strained, "Uncle Tang, quickly get the medicine box."
When Butler Tang approached carrying the medicine box, Wen Shuyi took a step back in resistance.
"No."
Her face was almost bloodless, and the blood from her fingertips dripped like tiny red flowers as she walked away.
Tang Bo watched Wen Shuyi's retreating figure with great concern. "Miss Wen is badly injured. Young Master Li went too far. How could he break Miss Wen's mother's keepsake? It's crystal, very difficult to repair."
……
Wen Shu was also extremely saddened.
After leaving the Sheng family home, she sat alone on the roadside steps and cried for a long time.
That's pretty pathetic.
She couldn't even protect the belongings left by her biological parents.
After wiping away my tears, I found a crystal repair shop.
He handed over his mother's belongings.
It was still stained with congealed blood.
The craftsman didn't ask any further questions, only saying that the repair would be difficult.
She begged and pleaded countless times before her master finally agreed to give it a try.
In a fit of rage, Sheng Li tore apart the last shred of decorum between the two of them.
Love is a fleeting thing.
It seems like falling out of love can happen in an instant.
It's over between her and him.
A text message popped up with a "ding".
Wen Shuyi glanced at her phone.
"Ms. Wen Shuyi, please come to Tianjing Group for an interview at 8:00 AM on Monday..."
She has entered the interview stage.
This is the only thing that has made her happy these past few days.
When they returned to the Sheng family.
It started raining heavily.
Not too big, not too small, just a light drizzle.
Wen Shuyi was dejected, hanging her head as she slowly walked along the bluestone path of the mansion.
Her hair and shoulders were slowly soaked by the rain, but she was completely unaware.
The man, with his hands in his pockets and holding an umbrella, slowly walked towards her.
The black umbrella was tilted.
It blocked the raindrops from Wen Shuyi's head.
She looked up.
It's Sheng Li.
He learned from Uncle Tang that what he had smashed was not a token of love, but a keepsake from Wen Shuyi's mother.
While feeling enlightened, I also felt a pang of guilt.
"Are you still angry with me? It's my fault for acting impulsively, so please don't hold it against me, okay?" He reached out his arm, wanting to hug Wen Shuyi.
She glared back at him with disgust and distance.
"Don't touch me." She couldn't forgive him.
Wen Shuyi has a very soft heart; she used to believe everything he said.
The distance between them widened, and Sheng Li felt he had lost control of Wen Shuyi. "This is all a misunderstanding. It's my fault, I admit it. What more do you want from me?"
"No need." Wen Shuyi was also very cold, and her small face was tense because Sheng Li was so close. "Please take your umbrella away and stay away from me."
Warmth and aloofness can also be met with indifference.
In return, Sheng Li became even more suspicious of her relationship with Sheng Tingwang.
"Since you're so resistant to me, then I'll have to ask you properly, what exactly happened between you and Sheng Tingwang?" He couldn't help but suspect that her staying out all night last night wasn't innocent. "Tell me properly."
Wen Shu also did not want to answer.
Sheng Li clearly didn't love her, but at this moment he acted as if he had suffered a great loss, saying, "What happened between him and me has nothing to do with you. Sheng Li, I've already told you, I want to break up with you, don't you understand?"
"Wen Shuyi, have you forgotten who you came to the Sheng family to be a daughter-in-law for?" He gritted his teeth as if he had lost face.
His face, which was normally quite handsome, was now distorted and deformed.
It's funny.
"We're not engaged or married, it's just a verbal agreement between our parents, so..." Wen Shuyi looked at him indifferently, "...you should tell your dad to go to my house and call off the engagement."
"break off an engagement?"
