Chapter 136: Chapter 129: Uncle, Should We Get a Divorce?
When she said this, Yin Shixiu didn’t ask again. Back at home, Su’s father and Su’s mother had not yet returned.
The two made a phone call to Su Xiaomeng, saying they were shopping at the mall and would be back later.
Su Xiaomeng carried Shuangshuang into the house. It was the end of August, the hottest time, and Yin Shixiu went to the bathroom with clothes as soon as he got home.
The sound of water in the bathroom grew louder.
Su Xiaomeng looked at her daughter in her arms, and even now, she still felt confused.
How did she end up with a pair of children?
Shuangshuang’s eyes were so big, as if they took up half of her face, staring at her, turning and turning, as if speaking...
"The reason we have a fake marriage, is it purely because my pregnancy was made public at school, and you wanted to help me handle it properly?"
"...Yes."
"We’re just in a fake marriage, just a fake couple, Yin Shixiu can’t have any improper thoughts about Su Xiaomeng!"
"What counts as improper thoughts?"
"Just... just can’t do that to me!"
"Su Xiaomeng can have improper thoughts about Yin Shixiu, have ulterior motives, in short, Su Xiaomeng can ’do that’ to Yin Shixiu."
"During the pregnancy, Yin Shixiu must treat Su Xiaomeng kindly, be gentle, patient, and cannot bully Su Xiaomeng."
"The last term... is... you can’t... can’t... cheat!"
"If Yin Shixiu violates the terms, he must compensate Su Xiaomeng up to ten million!"
"What about you?"
"What?"
"If you violate the contract, what can you compensate me with?"
The bathroom door slid open, and Yin Shixiu came out shirtless, wiping his hair while asking, "Not going to take a shower?"
Su Xiaomeng looked at him, pursed her lips, her expression particularly calm...
Yin Shixiu’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his hand wiping his hair paused.
It’s been more than a day or two, this little woman’s acting strangely.
Su Xiaomeng leaned on the bed, Shuangshuang’s crib was on the inside, and Shuangshuang had already fallen asleep.
The daughter seemed particularly fond of sleeping, and once fed well, she’d sleep, and when she woke up, she must be hungry.
Yin Shixiu glanced at Shuangshuang, then went around to the other side, sat by the bed, and the mattress slightly sank.
He looked at her, "What’s really going on with you?"
Su Xiaomeng looked at him, took a deep breath, what was coming always comes.
Even if she racked her brains thinking about how to escape it, how to void the contract, how to take the initiative...
But after scrutinizing every clause of that contract thoroughly, Su Xiaomeng found that no matter what she did, she had no initiative.
So... instead of anxiously waiting for Yin Shixiu to speak first, it was better to be a bit cooler.
Yin Shixiu frowned, "Is it that you don’t feel well? Or——"
He didn’t finish the question, only to see Su Xiaomeng silently took out from under the pillow that contract Yin Shixiu had been searching for a long time but couldn’t find.
When he saw that contract, Yin Shixiu felt his heart sink, yet his anger was rising rapidly.
What did she want to do by taking this thing out now?
If she dared say those few words, Yin Shixiu would definitely make her pay!
He thought this way in his heart, and then saw Su Xiaomeng’s small mouth opened slightly, faintly asking, "Uncle... shouldn’t we get a divorce?"
Yin Shixiu’s face almost instantly turned cold, and just looking at you without any change in expression was quite intimidating.
Su Xiaomeng looked at him, and slowly said, "The contract has expired..."
She... really dared to say it...
She actually dared to propose a divorce!
What is this girl’s heart made of?
How can she make people feel so warm and lovely, yet so disillusioned and desperate?
How can she make one’s entire heart full of joy and yet turn so cold and hard?
"Expired... so, divorce?"
His eyes narrowed again, it was an implication, a reminder...
But more like a threat.
The last chance, if she dared nod, if she dared——
"The contract... says just that, you signed it..."
Yin Shixiu suddenly stood up, his tall body casting a heavy shadow over!
Su Xiaomeng looked up, meeting his grim and terrifying expression...
"Wha... why are you staring at me like that?"
Su Xiaomeng couldn’t really understand for a moment...
Indeed, was he unhappy because she took the initiative?
Seeing her uncaring look, Yin Shixiu was practically boiling with rage!
He thought that after such a long time, she should see clearly, all the contracts, all the deadlines, it was all fake...
He thought after everything he did, she wouldn’t bring up this so-called contract again!
Yet...
She still took it out and still proposed "divorce".
Yin Shixiu took a deep breath, snatched that A4 paper from her hand, and tore it into pieces without a word.
The sound of the paper tearing was like fabric ripping apart.
Su Xiaomeng stared blankly at the paper turning into snowflake-like fragments, falling all over the floor.
She looked cluelessly at Yin Shixiu...
He squinted his dangerous eyes, his mouth curled slightly, the expression on his face was quite sinister, making Su Xiaomeng feel a bit unfamiliar.
He snorted, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, the Yin Family has a rule, wives who have given birth can’t leave the house."
Su Xiaomeng was stunned, what kind of nonsense is it that wives who give birth can’t leave the house? What kind of nonsense is the Yin Family’s rule?
"What, what do you mean?"
She asked.
Yin Shixiu leaned down, pinched her little chin, his expression was somewhat indifferent, "It means I have no intention of divorcing you, this contract was invalid from the beginning in my eyes."
"The only reason for signing this contract was to trick you into my hands. Divorce? Don’t even think about it, Meng Meng."
Actually, the moment the contract was torn, Su Xiaomeng felt a burst of joy in her heart...
That kind of secret delight that made her heart itch, so clear and distinct.
To the point where she almost reached out to him, wanting a hug...
And then, unable to hide her joy, she wanted to tell him, "Uncle, well-torn! I’ve been waiting for so many days, just waiting for you to tear it!"
Who knew... she hadn’t had time to express her feelings.
Yin Shixiu’s words were like a bucket of cold water pouring over her head.
I have no intention of divorcing you, this contract was invalid from the beginning in my eyes...
The only reason for signing this contract was to trick you into my hands. Divorce? Don’t even think about it...
Was she... being played?
At this moment, she found the man in front of her terrifyingly unfamiliar, she thought she understood him well over the time they spent together.
Su Xiaomeng glared with wide eyes, "You old rascal! I’m going to sue you!"
Yin Shixiu’s lips curled slightly, rarely showing a smile, "Your father-in-law has a lot of acquaintances in the court, do you want me to introduce you?"
The two just looked at each other like that, one angry, one indifferent.
At that moment, neither of them could see through the sadness beneath the other’s angry or indifferent exterior.
Yin Shixiu had never done so much for someone in his life, pouring his heart out to someone, regardless of consequences, regardless of cost, all just to win this person’s heart.
But when Su Xiaomeng took out the agreement from under the pillow and asked him to fulfill it, for a moment, he felt like he was in an icehouse.
He almost thought he had achieved his goal, almost thought he had got what he wanted!
Almost thought... she, like him, had already burned this agreement to ashes.
Turns out, he overestimated himself.
Yin Shixiu, who was used to controlling everything in the palm of his hand, finally felt with Su Xiaomeng what it was like to lose control.
It was so suffocating that it made him want to destroy everything.
And what about Su Xiaomeng at this moment?
With a simple mind, connecting two paths with one track, she almost unhesitatingly plunged into a dead end.
Reflecting on everything that had happened since she met Yin Shixiu, turns out it was a trap set by this man!
One trap followed another, each with a carrot beside it, she chewed on the carrot and fell into a pit!
So how many more traps are there to come?
This man has been scheming against her from the start... what is the purpose of his schemes?
What exactly does he want from her?
Su Xiaomeng was dumbfounded.
Yin Shixiu was just inches away from her right now, his expression was entirely that of a villain!
She didn’t know that when Yin Shixiu turned bad, he could be so creepy, to the point that she, the optimist, couldn’t think in a good or positive direction at all.
In an instant, the words that flooded her mind were... imprisonment, perversion, torture, domestic violence, and so on...
Fortunately, Yin Shixiu at this moment was only angry at Su Xiaomeng’s carelessness, if her thoughts could roll over her forehead like subtitles right now...
Yin Shixiu wouldn’t strangle her, he’d bleed to death himself.
At that moment, there was a commotion outside the door, Su’s dad and Su’s mother were back at an opportune time.
A knock on the door, "Xiao Yin, Meng Meng, are you asleep?"
Yin Shixiu pursed his lips, "Not yet..."
"We brought back some supper, want to eat?"
Su’s dad, carrying a package of shaved ice with an ice pack, smiled broadly, knowing his daughter liked it.
Yin Shixiu looked at Su Xiaomeng, God knows how deep a breath he took to calm his heart in the shortest time.
"Let’s go out and eat."
After saying this, he opened the closet and put on a T-shirt.
Su Xiaomeng got out of bed, put on her slippers, and almost slipped out of the room, as if she were escaping.
Even though Yin Shixiu didn’t want to care, he couldn’t help but notice her actions out of the corner of his eye, the veins on his forehead throbbing.
Su Xiaomeng sat on the sofa, Su’s mother was changing Huang Huang’s diaper.
Although there was an ice pack in the takeout box, the ice had melted a bit.
"Don’t eat too much, just a few bites to satisfy your craving, don’t be greedy. If it weren’t for your dad insisting on staying in front of the stall..."
Su’s mother stopped mid-sentence, really didn’t want to bring it up.
Su Xiaomeng smiled at Su’s dad, showing her teeth, "Thank you, Dad."
Su’s mother rolled her eyes at her.
During postpartum confinement, cold foods are best avoided, though Xiaomeng’s confinement period was nearly over, it was still best not to eat it.
But the weather was quite hot now.
"No worries, I’ll let it warm up in my mouth before swallowing!"
With that, Su Xiaomeng scooped a big spoonful of ice into her mouth, sweet and warm.
Su’s mother really couldn’t stand her behavior, if Shuangshuang and Huang Huang were like her in the future...
