She Asks for a Divorce Again-Chapter 467: The Rice Is Cooked

Lu Yi couldn’t find Shen Heyu, worried that she might come here to take care of Pei Yansi, so he decided to check in.

He guessed that Shen Heyu was in Pei Yansi’s ward, but what he never anticipated was that she was also nestled in Pei Yansi’s embrace.

Seeing the image of Shen Heyu sitting on Pei Yansi’s lap, a raging fury seemed to ignite in Lu Yi’s eyes, nearly crushing the doorknob he was holding.

With a bang,

Pei Yansi angrily pushed open the door. Striding over to the sofa, he yanked Shen Heyu away from Pei Yansi’s embrace.

"You bastard, you just never learn, do you? I’ll beat you to death today!"

Lu Yi couldn’t swallow this affront. Clenching his fist, he swung it toward Pei Yansi.

Just as his fist was about to make contact, Shen Heyu, without hesitation, grabbed Lu Yi’s arm, stopping him from hitting Pei Yansi.

"What are you doing? You’ve already caused his wound to tear, do you want to make his injuries worse?" Shen Heyu was genuinely anxious.

Pei Yansi’s injuries were too severe to withstand Lu Yi’s rough handling.

For a moment, Lu Yi seemed petrified, maintaining his punching pose as he slowly turned his head to look at the anxious expression on Shen Heyu’s face.

"Does it hurt your heart to see him get hit?" Lu Yi asked in disbelief, looking into Shen Heyu’s eyes, where he saw too many emotions that would break his own heart.

"He’s a patient with serious injuries. Can’t you have some empathy? He’s already forgiven you for trying to punch him today, don’t escalate things further," Shen Heyu said, still holding on tightly to Lu Yi’s arm, preventing him from throwing his punch.

However, Lu Yi just curled his lips, a sneer spreading across his face, "He’s a patient, so he needs sympathy, is that it? I’m a patient too, why don’t I see you showing any sympathy for me?"

"Let’s be honest, Shen Heyu, you still have feelings for Pei Yansi, right? He put on a little show of playing the hero, and that’s all it took to reel you back in."

"But why are you so cruel to me, Shen Heyu? When you were at your lowest, I was the one by your side, managing everything for you. How is it that you repay me?"

Shen Heyu took a deep breath and slowly released her grip on his arm.

"I’m grateful for your help during my toughest times, but we can’t confuse today’s matters with past favors. I hope you can judge the situation on its own merits," she said, looking up into Pei Yansi’s eyes.

At that moment, her gaze toward Pei Yansi was like looking at a stranger, and Lu Yi lowered his raised fist.

"You’re grateful for my help when you needed it most, and this is how you repay me, by hurting me over and over again?"

"Have you forgotten how this bastard used to treat you? If he truly loved you, would you have stayed by his side for three years, still trying to escape?"

"Shen Heyu, please wake up, don’t be fooled by his smokescreen, alright? I’m the one who loves you the most, I am the one who should be your happiness."

The more Lu Yi spoke, the more agitated he became, raising his hand to pound his chest, the thumps resonating.

"Lu Yi, I appreciate your feelings for me and your kindness, and I will repay you."

"If you really want to thank me, if you want to repay me, from now on, make a clean break with Pei Yansi and don’t interact with him anymore. Only then can I feel at ease," Lu Yi said, pointing at Pei Yansi.

"I am very grateful to you, and I want to repay you, but that doesn’t mean I’ll do whatever you say. I will repay you within my capabilities."

"Enough! In the end, you just don’t want to leave him, do you? But Shen Heyu, if you want to make amends with him, it’s already too late."

"Have you forgotten? The two of us have already registered our marriage; we are legally husband and wife. If you continue to be involved with him, do you know what that is called? It’s called marital infidelity."

Lu Yi took a step forward, inching closer to Shen Heyu.

"I’ve said it, we’ll go and get the divorce certificate as soon as you’re discharged from the hospital."

"Impossible, that’s absolutely impossible. I won’t agree to that."

"If you don’t agree, then we’ll just have to settle this matter in court. Have you forgotten, Lu Yi? We had already signed a prenuptial agreement before registering our marriage. Even if the marriage certificate is real, this marriage is indeed a sham."

Shen Heyu calmly reminded Lu Yi, who knew very well that if this matter really ended up in court, he would definitely lose.

"Fine, you’re actually willing to treat me this way for him. If you want to stay here and take care of them, I won’t disturb your world for two. I’ll leave; isn’t that alright?"

Lu Yi, filled with anger, left Pei Yansi’s hospital room. It wasn’t long after he had gone that he took out his cellphone and proactively dialed Chen Wenzhou’s number.

"I’ve given some thought to the matter you mentioned last time," Chen Wenzhou said, walking to the window to gaze at the scenery not far away. The sunshine was splendid outside, but his heart felt as if it was trapped in ice.

"What’s got you riled up this time?" Chen Wenzhou chuckled twice.

"It’s none of your business. I just want to ask you if you’re the one who came up with this idea, and if you’ll help me." Lu Yi had made up his mind. He wanted to bind Shen Heyu to him, but if he handled it, she would definitely hate him to the bone afterward.

So, for this matter to be successful, it had to go through someone else’s hands.

"Of course I will help you. Haven’t I told you? We are in the same boat; of course, we must help each other and cooperate for mutual benefits."

Chen Wenzhou curled his lips, revealing a smile of successful conspiracy. This matter was exactly to his liking.

"In that case, you handle this. No matter what means you use, I have no objections, but there’s just one thing—this matter can only succeed, not fail," Lu Yi’s heart had also turned ruthless.

"Don’t worry, you trust me to handle things, don’t you?"

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yi felt as if his spine had been pulled out; suddenly his body slumped, barely managing to stay upright by leaning on the windowsill.

"Are you alright? What happened?"

Shen Heyu opened the door to the hospital room and walked in just in time to see Lu Yi, exhausted, propping himself up on the windowsill. She stepped forward to support Lu Yi, but he shrugged off her hands.

"What are you pretending for in front of me? Shouldn’t you be next door in Pei Yansi’s room, being lovey-dovey? I’m not bothering you, do whatever you want," Lu Yi said sharply, mocking Shen Heyu.

His words pierced Shen Heyu’s heart, causing her pain, but Shen Heyu took a deep breath to stabilize her emotions.

"Lu Yi, the person you are now... you’ve become truly unrecognizable to me."
