Chapter 37 Possessiveness
Chapter 37 Possessiveness
The pain shot through every nerve in my body, and I was in so much pain that I could barely stand.
I squatted in the bathroom, trembling as I took the dry pills out of my pocket and swallowed them. It took me a while to recover before I came out.
When I went outside, I glanced in the mirror. The person in the mirror looked very haggard, and their eyes were red and swollen from the pain.
I splashed some cold water on my face; that way, my eyes might not look so sick.
When I looked up after washing my face, I was surprised to see a familiar face in the mirror.
"Mr. Xie?"
What are you doing here?
Xie Wenyao gave me a playful smile.
"Surprised? Unexpected?"
It was quite unexpected.
There was absolutely no surprise.
Xie Wenyao was dressed in a sharp suit today, a rare sight, and sported a neat and stylish short haircut.
This kind of makeup actually gives her a more powerful, career-woman vibe.
After informing her, I, Li Mao, nodded and prepared to go out to find Song Yafei.
Unexpectedly, she blocked my way, looked me up and down, and then frowned slightly.
"This outfit doesn't suit you."
I glanced down and realized it really wasn't suitable.
Song Yafei remembers my old size.
During my illness, I lost a lot of weight and became very thin.
Even if she's right, I don't plan to change it.
It was specially made for me by Song Yafei.
I didn't want to have too much contact with Xie Wenyao in my daily life, so I just smiled politely and prepared to go downstairs beside her.
When I walked up to her, Xie Wenyao suddenly grabbed my arm, her expression unusually serious.
"Zhang Tian, you and Yafei have made up?"
Her constant meddling annoyed me.
"Mr. Xie, there are many people coming and going here, it's not a good thing."
But she stubbornly seemed not to hear my perfunctory words and continued to hold my arm.
"Going to find Yafei? Does your being together today mean you won't get a divorce?"
I was annoyed by her meddling, and my tone became less gentle.
"Mr. Xie, this is my private matter. Is there any need for me to tell you?"
"If you think I've held Song Yafei back, then please advise her to divorce me as soon as possible."
Even when we were in school, she was extremely opposed to my relationship with Song Yafei.
This is the only way I can understand her recent unusual behavior.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Xie Wenyao's eyes, and her tone became more melancholy.
"You think I did this for Yafi?"
Isn't that right?
I can't think of any other reason besides this.
"I did it for..."
"husband."
Song Yafei's voice rang out from behind, interrupting Xie Wenyao before she could finish speaking.
Husband?
Upon hearing those two words, I froze on the spot.
How long has it been since I last heard this title?
I can't remember.
Now, he actually shouted it out in this very setting.
Even though I knew it was all an act, my heart still started racing uncontrollably.
Song Yafei walked over with a smile and affectionately took my arm.
The force was much stronger, and they even pinched my hand intentionally or unintentionally.
She smiled, but her eyes held a fierce glint as she looked at me.
Xie Wenyao, who was being ignored, gave an unpleasant snort.
"There are no outsiders here, Yafei, who are you putting on this for?"
"Aren't you an outsider?"
Song Yafei did not back down at all; the two glared at each other, the atmosphere thick with tension.
Weren't they best friends? Why do they always end up fighting whenever they meet?
"Yafei, you don't need to act in front of me."
Her gaze swept over the two of us, and she said indifferently, "Can't you be nicer to Zhang Tian? Look how thin he's become!"
Song Yafei sneered, "My husband is none of your business."
"Whether he lives or dies, whether he's fat or thin, it's all mine, and has nothing to do with anyone else!"
Song Yafei domineeringly declared her ownership and even stood on tiptoe to kiss me in front of Xie Wenyao.
Seeing this, Xie Wenyao swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue, and probably tacitly agreed with Song Yafei's statement.
I don't know what happened between them, but right now we have to separate them.
Otherwise, if we start arguing and accidentally let something slip, wouldn't the cooperation fall through?
It doesn't matter if the cooperation falls through, but Xu Hu's problem is unsolvable.
Just as I was about to speak, a waitress came over to find Xie Wenyao, and she followed her.
But before she left, she gave me a meaningful look.
I didn't quite understand the meaning behind her look, and I didn't intend to delve into it.
After Xie Wenyao left, Song Yafei dismissively let go of my hand and led me back to the car.
She roughly pulled open the car door and shoved me inside.
I stumbled and fell onto the car seat.
Before I could react, Song Yafei got into the car, slammed the door shut, and reached out to take off my clothes.
"what are you doing?"
Song Yafei is indeed very bold, but she rarely does anything so outrageous.
Moreover, the parking location is not hidden and could be discovered at any time.
"Yafei, what are you doing?"
She wasn't listening to anything I was saying; she was kissing me while unbuttoning my clothes.
My body, which had just taken medication, couldn't withstand her torment, and I went from struggling at the beginning to stopping resisting.
Finally, she let me take off my coat and throw it aside.
I lay there panting, and Song Yafei wasn't much better off; her chest heaved violently, and her hair was a mess.
And her bright red lips, with lipstick smudged in one spot.
Looking at that vibrant red, a strange surge of emotion welled up inside me.
I don't know what came over me, but I kissed him without thinking.
After a moment of stunned silence, Song Yafei took the initiative and deepened the kiss.
The kiss started suddenly, but ended very satisfyingly.
After I calmed down, Song Yafei had already straightened her skirt and redone her makeup.
She was so passionate just now, but she could withdraw in an instant; that's really her style.
I looked out the window, feeling a pang of regret for my impulsive actions.
They've already decided to divorce, how can this kind of thing happen again and again?
Song Yafei's response was also unusual.
Last time it was when I was drunk, and I flirted with him while I was unconscious.
This time, however, she was lucid. How could she...?
"Zhang Tian, you've finally learned to call for reinforcements to speak up for you. You've really grown up!"
Song Yafei had just finished her makeup when she was bombarded with accusations.
Settle after autumn!
Actually, I'm also very curious as to why Xie Wenyao would do this; her change makes me a little uneasy.
But even if I said all this, Song Yafei wouldn't believe me.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Song Yafei angrily grabbed my chin, forcing me to look directly into her eyes.
Those eyes that only showed me disgust.
I instinctively tried to avoid it, but was forcibly pulled back.
"Going to the toilet to see your lover, how tasteful!" Song Yafei mocked.
"I didn't, it was just a coincidence," I said, unable to defend myself.
Song Yafei clearly didn't believe it. "No wonder you agreed to go on a business trip with me so easily. You not only saved Xu Hu, but also let you meet in private for free. You killed two birds with one stone. You've really made progress."
Hearing her say that, my heart skipped a beat, and I was worried that Xu Hu's plans would fall through.
I know her; she's capable of doing something like this.
I had no choice but to lower my head and patiently explain to her, giving a clear account of how I met Xie Wenyao.
Besides, there are security cameras in the corridor; she can check them if she doesn't believe it.
She knows me too well; she knows what I'm like when I lie, so she didn't say anything more.
Her reaction today was indeed a bit excessive.
Anyone who didn't know better would think she was jealous.
Only I know that it was her possessiveness that was at play.
Song Yafei sat up straight, abandoning her previous demeanor, and said calmly, "Stay away from her in the future, or I don't know what I might do."
