She Asks for a Divorce Again-Chapter 422 False Joy

Seeing how seriously Lu Yi admitted his mistakes, Shen Heyu took a deep breath slowly.

"You drank so much this time, which is understandable, so I’ll forgive you this time. However, I hope that from now on, you can keep your promises. If you agree to something, don’t go back on your word."

Because of the image Lu Yi had in Shen Heyu’s mind, it was hard for her to accept what had happened, as he clearly hadn’t kept his promises.

"Heyu, I swear to you, this will never happen again. This time I was genuinely heartbroken, I couldn’t control myself, that’s why I drank so much. This is the last time."

When Lu Yi heard Shen Heyu forgiving him, he happily raised his hand as if swearing an oath, but Shen Heyu slowly pushed his hand down.

"Alright, let’s put this behind us and not bring it up again. You’ve drunk too much, go take a shower and get some sleep early."

Lu Yi lifted his hand to sniff the strong smell of alcohol on his body. Indeed, it was overpowering. He had sat on the balcony drinking all of last night and hadn’t showered yet.

He scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed. freёnovelkiss.com

"Heyu, I’m actually very sober now. I’ll make a call and have someone bring hangover soup over. Didn’t you say you’d be back in three days? How come you’re back on the first day?"

Lu Yi looked at Shen Heyu with happiness, still somewhat in disbelief that this was reality.

"It’s a long story. To sum it up, after Chen Lingmeng found out that Pei Yansi had taken me home, she came to assert her dominance and drove me away. I just took the hint and came back."

"So that’s what happened. He didn’t bully you, did he? He didn’t hurt you, right?" Lu Yi anxiously looked Shen Heyu over from head to toe, but he saw no injuries.

"Rest assured, he didn’t hurt me. Compared to him, I’m more worried about you—drinking all night yesterday, and so much again today."

Seeing the bottles on the balcony, Shen Heyu couldn’t help but sigh. She had definitely not expected to come home to this scene when she opened the door.

Lu Yi, feeling ashamed, looked down, about to say something when the doorbell rang. He pointed towards the door as if he had seen a savior.

"It must be the cleaning service or room service. I’ll go open the door."

Watching Lu Yi change the subject and flee, Shen Heyu shook her head involuntarily.

When Lu Yi opened the door, it was the cleaning service; they removed the bottles from the balcony. Shen Heyu sat on the couch while Lu Yi walked towards her, step by step.

"How was your night at his place? Did you eat well? Did you sleep well?"

Lu Yi’s conversation revolved around Shen Heyu, showing how much he cared about her, which Shen Heyu knew in her heart.

Shen Heyu looked up at Lu Yi. In less than a day, he had become significantly more haggard.

"Don’t worry, he didn’t give me a hard time last night. I’m more worried about you right now. After you drink the hangover soup, you should go and get a good night’s sleep."

Lu Yi glanced at the time, realizing it was getting late.

He smiled and shook his head, "It’s okay, I’m not sleepy. Besides, it’s already three or four in the afternoon. After I drink the hangover soup, I’ll rest a bit and then go grocery shopping. I’ll cook dinner for you tonight, okay? What do you want to eat?"

Shen Heyu didn’t answer his question; she was even more concerned about Lu Yi’s health.

"Let’s order takeout tonight. You drank so much last night, and I guess you didn’t sleep at all, didn’t get enough rest. Now I’m making you run around cooking, I really can’t bear it."

"It’s really fine, I know my body the best. I’m not tired at all. Seeing you energizes me. I’ve told you, my mission is to take good care of you, to protect you." Lu Yi looked at Shen Heyu with sincere eyes.

Though what he did this time disappointed Shen Heyu, overall, he still made her feel very secure.

"Are you really okay? If you exhaust yourself, don’t blame me for not reminding you," Shen Heyu repeatedly confirmed with him.

But Lu Yi was adamant, "I’m really fine."

After the cleaning lady had finished cleaning the presidential suite, the doorbell rang again. When the cleaning lady went to answer it, room service had just brought hangover soup.

Lu Yi drank the hangover soup, his eyes bright, wanting Shen Heyu to see that his spirit was indeed very good.

"My best way to rest is to take good care of you. If you don’t tell me what you want to eat tonight, then I’ll decide the menu myself."

Seeing his insistence, Shen Heyu didn’t continue to persuade him. She just nodded, "Do you want me to go to the supermarket with you?"

This suggestion really tempted Lu Yi, but then he thought about the kind of life Shen Heyu had had the night before. What if he had been bullying or tormenting her? It was better to let her rest well now.

"You rest well here, wait for me to come back."

Shen Heyu watched as Lu Yi left the presidential suite. For some reason, watching his departing figure, Shen Heyu felt a bit uneasy.

She was also unsure whether they would be able to have dinner smoothly tonight.

If Pei Yansi came back to find her absent, he would definitely inquire, and she was afraid that Chen Lingmeng, the brainless one, wouldn’t be able to handle Pei Yansi.

Her guess was completely right.

When Pei Yansi finished his work at the company and returned home happily, his face changed immediately when he saw Chen Lingmeng in a wheelchair. He frowned and looked around.

"You don’t need to look anymore; he’s already left."

Seeing Pei Yansi’s anxious search, Chen Lingmeng felt a pang of heartache and reminded him in a suppressed voice.

Hearing Chen Lingmeng’s words, Pei Yansi turned to leave, pulling out his phone to call Shen Heyu.

But Shen Heyu’s phone was unreachable, and Chen Lingmeng maneuvered her wheelchair over and grabbed Pei Yansi’s sleeve.

"He’s gone, but I’m still here. Brother Yan Si, do you never see me? That woman never wanted to stay by your side, and you know it."

Listening to the dial tone on the phone, Pei Yansi’s heart suddenly felt cold. He turned to look at the woman with the delicate makeup.

"Did you drive her away?"

"Even if I did drive her away, so what? I am the future mistress of this house; what right does she have to stay on my territory?"
