My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away!-Chapter 498: After modification - 508 My Encounter with Him, Thrilling
Shi Yi thought, if she were in the position of Leng Yixiu’s ex-wife, there was no way she would willingly give birth to Leng Yixiu’s child. She wasn’t a saint; even if she loved him deeply, she wouldn’t forget the pain just because the wounds had healed.
However, Shi Yi was somewhat puzzled by Leng Yixiu’s attitude towards his ex-wife. If Leng Yixiu were truly heartless towards his ex-wife, why would he treat their daughter like a treasure? If Leng Yixiu were affectionate towards his ex-wife, then why, after stabilizing Leng’s, would he ruthlessly deal with his father-in-law?
This was really complicated, leaving Shi Yi utterly perplexed. She pondered for a while and then asked, "So what happened later?"
"Later? The outcome was quite tragic. Cheng Ying kidnapped Leng Yixiu’s daughter. To save her daughter, Leng Yixiu’s ex-wife was pushed off Seaside by Cheng Ying, who then leapt to her death."
This outcome caused Shi Yi’s heart to tremble slightly. She didn’t expect this outcome. No wonder when she asked about Xiao Yi Xun’s mother, the expression on Leng Yixiu’s face was so sorrowful. It turned out that his ex-wife was long gone.
Shi Yi did not sympathize with Leng Yixiu. She wasn’t clear about his attitude towards his ex-wife, but even taking a step back, even if he loved her to no end, even if he regretted it deeply, all of this was his own doing.
It was his ridiculous and pathetic pride that led to this. He repaid kindness with enmity, he was fickle and promiscuous, leading to such a tragedy. By comparison, Shi Yi felt some sympathy for the former mayor’s daughter; in her eyes, even Cheng Ying was a victim of this farce.
But, poor Xiao Yi Xun.
Thinking of how Xiao Yi Xun chased after her, calling her "mom," Shi Yi couldn’t help but feel heartache for her. She was still so young yet had lost her mother. It was truly pitiful.
"So, men shouldn’t be too greedy. Otherwise, when facing someone as ruthless as Cheng Ying, it will be too late for regrets. Speaking of which, Cheng Ying was really pitiful too. A double award-winning actress, beautiful with a great figure and a prestigious university degree, she had a bright future ahead. Why did she hang herself on a single tree, sending herself to a dead end? Sigh... women, sometimes, really are hard to understand."
"What do you mean women are hard to understand? We’re not a complex math problem." Shi Yi rolled her eyes fiercely at Shen Xu.
After gaining some understanding, Shi Yi felt that her previous intuition was correct. Leng Yixiu was too dangerous, too heartless; it would be best for her to stay away from him. She didn’t want to end up like those other women.
As soon as she walked out of Lei Man Office Building, her phone rang. Shi Yi fished out her phone and glanced at the screen, her elegant brows furrowing tightly in the next instant.
Feng Chengyu has been quite idle lately?
Although she was extremely reluctant to deal with Feng Chengyu, she still answered his call. After all, she owed him; she had been a coward in the face of power back then. Look, this was the price she paid.
"Hello, Mr. Feng, what can I do for you?"
"Do you have any plans for tonight?"
"What if I say I do?"
"Then cancel them."
Shi Yi unhappily rolled her eyes. She knew it would end this way. With a wistful tone, she asked, "May I know what orders Mr. Feng has for me this time?"
"Grandma wants you to come over for dinner tonight."
Upon hearing this, Shi Yi’s heart sank. "Mr. Feng, did you return to T City?"
"Just got off the plane."
Upon hearing this answer, Shi Yi felt a bit helpless. Four years ago, during her time in the mountain villa, Feng Chengyu would return at the shortest intervals of one to two months, and often it was half a year or more. This time, he returned in less than a week. How come?
If he continues to return to T City this frequently, doesn’t that mean she would have to accompany him to the mountain villa to visit Grandma Feng every few days?
OMG!
For a moment, Shi Yi felt a sense of disarray like leaves in a storm. She ruffled her hair and could only silently tell herself that this time it was just a coincidence, only a coincidence! Someone as busy as Feng Chengyu couldn’t possibly travel to T City every few days.
Thinking this, Shi Yi’s mood finally improved a bit. Lazily, she said, "Alright then, I’ll be there soon."
"I’ll send the driver to pick you up."
Shi Yi instinctively wanted to refuse, but considering the heavy security outside Feng Chengyu’s villa, and that he didn’t seem keen on others knowing his address, she agreed.
She was truly scared that if she took a taxi, it might implicate the driver. Encountering the situation from four years ago again would be terrible. It was bad enough that she nearly became a German Shepherd’s meal; she couldn’t let innocent people get dragged into it.
When Shi Yi arrived at the villa, she didn’t see Feng Chengyu in the living room. Instead, Old Madam Feng was sitting on the sofa, seemingly waiting for her.
"Granddaughter-in-law, you’re here." Seeing Shi Yi, the old lady’s eyes immediately lit up with a smile. "Come, come, have a seat."
Shi Yi was taken aback by the term "Granddaughter-in-law." Although she had agreed to pretend to be Feng Chengyu’s girlfriend, she still wasn’t used to this role.
She moved her feet stiffly, coming to Old Madam Feng’s side, and asked with a smile, "Grandma, where’s Feng... Feng Chengyu?"
Hearing this, Old Madam Feng pointed in the direction of the study upstairs. "He went straight upstairs after coming back. He’s probably discussing business."
"Oh..."
Shi Yi nodded blankly, but her heart was murmuring complaints. This guy left her alone downstairs; how was she supposed to deal with this sharp grandma now?
If she accidentally slipped up later, he shouldn’t blame her.
"My boring grandson said you’re now the CEO of an IT company. I didn’t expect my granddaughter-in-law to be so capable at such a young age." The old lady smiled warmly at Shi Yi, showing more affection as she looked at her. She pushed the fruit platter on the coffee table towards Shi Yi, "You must be hungry after working all day. Have some fruit to tide you over."
The older lady’s enthusiasm was overwhelming. Unable to refuse, Shi Yi picked a peach from the fruit platter and began nibbling at it absentmindedly.
In fact, Shi Yi had her own little scheme; she hoped that by eating, her mouth would be too occupied to hold a conversation, sparing her from answering too many questions from Old Madam Feng.
As the saying goes, ’the more you say, the more mistakes you make.’ By saying nothing, she wouldn’t make any mistakes.
However, she was too naive. Even if she was eating, if Old Madam Feng wanted to ask something, she still would.
"Granddaughter-in-law, how did you meet my boring grandson?"
Shi Yi’s hand paused, and memories of her first encounter with Feng Chengyu flashed through her mind. Even after four years, the thought of that event still made her uneasy.
Thinking back to four years ago, she lost her appetite completely.
She put down the peach she was holding, forcing a stiff smile, and said slowly, "How did we meet? Well... our meeting could be described as thrilling."
