When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Chapter 1033: All the Lus Are Divine Assistants (3)

Su Weiyi ran back to the living room, she glanced around but didn’t see the familiar tall figure. Si Nian was not there, and Chen Ajia was still busy eating. Su Weiyi walked over to her: "Where’s Si Nian?"

Chen Ajia mumbled with food in her mouth, "They went upstairs."

Su Weiyi turned her head upstairs and happened to see Si Nian coming out of Sheng Yanxiao’s room. They locked eyes, and Si Nian spoke first, "Hello, Su Goddess."

Su Weiyi paused her steps: "Is he... inside?"

"Yes, yes, please..."

Si Nian remained his usual playful self, and Su Weiyi didn’t bother with him. She was about to push the door open when Si Nian’s voice suddenly came again: "He has a headache and is already asleep. I think it’d be best not to wake him."

"Headache?"

Su Weiyi stopped her actions and frowned.

Si Nian scratched his head, "It’s been a long-standing issue, caused by overworking back then."

Su Weiyi’s heart ached sharply again, and she gently pushed the door open.

The room was dimly lit, and only a vague figure could be seen lying on the large bed. Su Weiyi lightened her footsteps even further and stepped inside.

Sheng Yanxiao seemed genuinely asleep. On the bedside table, Su Weiyi saw a small medicine bottle. She couldn’t clearly see what was written on it, but the first thought that popped into her mind was: sleeping pills.

So he took medicine again to fall asleep?

Su Weiyi leaned a bit closer and could faintly see Sheng Yanxiao frowning tightly, as if he wasn’t sleeping peacefully.

Su Weiyi wanted to reach out and smooth his furrowed brow but held back and lowered her hand, slowly sitting down on the floor beside the bed.

She didn’t consider that after they separated, he would be so upset. After all, when she first arrived in the United Kingdom, she was also not in a good place. She could only keep herself constantly busy, not allowing even a moment of leisure.

But she hadn’t expected that he’d feel even worse than she did.

How did he manage nights dependent on sleeping pills?

Su Weiyi thought time could fade everything, but now looking at it, at least for her, time hadn’t faded anything. Instead, with the passage of time, her emotions only grew stronger.

So strong that every hint of indifference from him made her feel uncomfortable all over.

Su Weiyi reached out and gently grabbed Sheng Yanxiao’s bedsheet: "I’m sorry."

Her nearly inaudible voice quietly echoed in the silent room, quickly disappearing into nothingness.

Su Weiyi didn’t stay in Sheng Yanxiao’s room for too long before she gently retreated. When she came out, Si Nian was still leaning against the wall, displaying none of his previous unserious demeanor. As Si Nian chuckled, he spoke, "Su Goddess, let’s have a chat."

——

When Su Weiyi returned to her apartment, it was already late. Lu Zhang had left at some point, but tonight Su Weiyi couldn’t muster the energy to care about her.

She wasn’t living at the Sheng Family; she wanted some quiet time alone.

Lying in bed, her mind was endlessly replaying Lu Yuewei’s words, Si Nian’s words.

Although, these days, Su Weiyi has felt deeply regretful, she never thought she had made a mistake initially.

But tonight, that feeling was overwhelmingly strong.

She had used the method she believed was right to fiercely and cruelly hurt the young man she deeply loved.

Si Nian said, "I can understand you, but I really want to punch you."

"He hasn’t fallen for someone else. I guess he doesn’t even know what it’s like to like someone anymore."
