LOCAM 13

Chapter 13

Su Li pouted. “You changed my clothes for me.”

Mo Xingyuan clenched his fist slightly. His gaze returned to her face.

She was drinking water, her bright eyes carrying a faint smile, looking a little mischievous.

“Do you mind?”

“What’s there to mind between husband and wife?” Su Li said openly. “Just think of it as me being a little disappointed.”

Mo Xingyuan had seen many women who wanted something to happen with him, but few were as eager as her.

Saying such things in front of him without even blushing.

He knew her skin was thick, so he did not bother responding.

“Mo Xingyuan.” Su Li called his name.

He glanced at her impatiently.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly. “I hope you’ll be well.”

His fingers stiffened for a moment.

Without looking at her, he started typing on the keyboard again. “Before I die, you’d better think clearly. Divorce sounds better than becoming a widow.”

The water in Su Li’s cup shook slightly. She took a breath and forced a smile. “I don’t plan to marry again.”

“You don’t need to show loyalty in front of me. You won’t get any benefits from me.”

“I’m serious.” Su Li looked at his face. She always felt that behind his cold exterior was loneliness and sadness.

“Mo Xingyuan, I really like you.”

She was shallow. She liked good-looking faces.

Call her fickle or heartless—she just liked him.

Mo Xingyuan paused again.

When he looked up this time, there was a darkness in his eyes that Su Li could not understand.

“You’re breaking the agreement.”

Su Li raised her brows slightly. “We’ve already had physical contact. At worst, I’ll go to the city center and bark like a dog.”

Mo Xingyuan stared at her and suddenly realized he had been naive.

Would something like that even affect her?

For a moment, he did not even know what to say.

He stood up, picked up his laptop, and walked past her.

As they brushed shoulders, he stopped, turned his head slightly, and looked down at her fair and beautiful face. “You’re not my type. Put away those thoughts of yours. If you want to stay, then behave.”

His cold and heartless tone was even colder than the winter air outside.

Mo Xingyuan returned to the study, leaving Su Li alone in the living room.

His words did not hurt her much. She just understood that he probably still loved the woman who had left him.

When someone already has someone in their heart, others are just outsiders.

He was not even willing to settle.

Su Li glanced at the tightly closed study door. He must be very sad. In the last days of his life, the one by his side was not the woman he loved.

How much regret must he be carrying?

.

Su Li reported to the company earlier than scheduled. When she came out of the leader’s office, she saw Zhou Yi.

She was about to greet him, but he walked past without even looking at her.

Su Li raised her brows. After Zhou Yi walked away, someone beside her leaned over and said, “You rejected him, so he feels embarrassed. You don’t know how angry he was at first. He even argued with the leader.”

“No wonder.” Su Li did not care. She shrugged. “Let him be.”

“Su Li, what does your husband do? And you even have a driver. Your family must be very rich, right?” a colleague asked curiously.

Su Li smiled. “If you get the chance, you can ask him yourself.”

“Alright.”

“I’m going back to work,” Su Li said.

After transferring back to Nine Cities, the work she did was mostly the same, but there were still differences.

She needed some time to adjust and also prepare for next year’s exhibition.

Busy work made people tired, but the good thing was that time passed quickly.

It was already dark. When her colleagues left work, they called her, but she still had something unfinished, so she stayed behind.
