Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 684 - 685: Big Shot Caught Lovesickness

Min Xin personally escorted her home before gracefully getting into his car. As soon as he was inside, he glanced at the time and told the driver, "Drive faster."

The driver hit the accelerator, and the car shot away.

Inside the villa, Zhou Yu’s mother looked at her daughter’s tear-streaked face with worry. "Has he been bullying you?"

Zhou Yu shook her head. "No."

Her mother didn’t believe her. She had only realized how Min Xin usually bullied her daughter after witnessing it herself once. If their relationship had been good, it wouldn’t have mattered; that would have been called playful affection. But they were divorced, and Min Xin still pestered Zhou Yu relentlessly. This was simply outrageous.

Zhou Yu’s mother’s heart ached for her daughter, but she felt helpless. What could she do against that shameless, powerful man?

So, all she could say was, "Yu Yu, if you don’t like him, try to avoid him."

Zhou Yu nodded.

Today, she truly couldn’t fathom his shamelessness—insisting the car was broken when it wasn’t, just to take advantage of her. She just didn’t understand. He had so many women, plenty to amuse him; why did he have to pester her?

Zhou Yu’s mother was deeply worried. Considering Zhou Yu was pregnant, future contact with him was unavoidable. Just the thought of it...

Zhou Yu’s eyes reddened. "I... I’m going upstairs."

Her mother nodded.

Once Zhou Yu had gone upstairs, her mother said to her father, "Min Xin is so shameless! He’s a grown man, yet he acts like a youngster. And with the driver right there in the car!"

Zhou Yu’s father chuckled, saying nothing.

Her mother asked softly, "Do you think Yu Yu is starting to have feelings for that scoundrel again?"

"Isn’t there a saying that a persistent suitor often wins the lady? She was quite infatuated with Min Xin in her youth. Plus, Min was good-looking; even in his forties, he was still very charming and a magnet for women. It would be understandable if their daughter fell for him again."

Zhou Yu’s father pondered for a moment, then smiled faintly. "Not yet, I believe."

But if this continues, who knows?

Zhou Yu’s mother cursed Min Xin fiercely again. She thought about going upstairs but then felt it wouldn’t be right.

Upstairs, Zhou Yu was resting on the couch when her phone rang.

She picked it up and saw a message from Min Xin. It was full of concern and rather sentimental.

She didn’t reply. She put her phone away and continued to rest. Later, she fell asleep and had a dream.

In her dream, it was from the time shortly after she had married Min Xin. Every night, he would wash her feet... How embarrassing. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

While she was fortunate enough to be resting, Min Xin arrived late to his office. He was then subtly criticized by Old Wang from next door, with insinuations like, "If you can’t focus on your career, just go home and look after the children." Min Xin endured it all.

After the meeting, he immediately took out his phone. There wasn’t a single message. He gave a bitter smile.

Wang Yuan leaned in and whispered, "Perhaps Madam was asleep."

Min Xin glanced at him and said, "She’s angry with me. She’s deliberately not replying."

Wang Yuan added, "Perhaps your methods have been a bit too aggressive. After all, Madam is... quite disappointed in you and has no plans to get back together. If you push too hard, you’ll only provoke her dislike."

Min Xin was initially displeased, but upon reflection, he seemed to agree. He stared yearningly at his phone and said with bitterness, "In the past, I often didn’t come home. She would send me many messages, and I never replied to a single one. But now, I’m the one hoping she’ll pay me some attention. She must be completely disillusioned with me after all these years, right? She doesn’t want to be my wife anymore, does she?"

Thinking back, it seemed he had forced her every time over the years. She had long since reached a point where she couldn’t even bear to look at him, treating him with such cold indifference. Paradoxically, it was only after their divorce that she seemed to rediscover her old self, which was actually quite adorable.
