The moment she closed the bedroom door, Fu Yao, who had been following closely behind her, stretched out his leg and pushed it open.
There was a huge difference between their strength, and the door was opened.
Shen Qieyi gave up and let go of the door.
The two of them looked at each other speechlessly.
Fu Yao suddenly said, “As long as I don’t agree, you have to stay here.”
Shen Qieyi tilted her head and sneered. “It doesn’t matter. I will move out as soon as possible. As long as we are apart for enough time, we have to divorce even if you don’t want to.”
Fu Yao’s heart turned cold as he heard this. He clenched his fists and released them. He tried his best to suppress his anger.
“Is there anything else you need? Otherwise, please leave.”
“Are you doing this because of Bai Jingyan?”
The two of them spoke in unison. One was suspicious and one was annoyed.
The air froze.
“Fu Yao, what right do you have to blame an outsider for our failure?”
“Have you ever reflected on what role you played in this miserable marriage?”
“Why can’t we end it in a dignified manner?”
Shen Qieyi patiently comforted both of them. In the end, she felt that she failed too.
Fu Yao took a big step forward and forced her to retreat. Then, he pressed her against the wall with the advantage of his height.
Fu Yao lowered his head and stared at her. “Look at your holy and arrogant face. At the end of the day, you are still selfish. You want to get rid of me in such a hurry to find happiness? Don’t even think about it.”
Seeing how unreasonable he was, Shen Qieyi was furious.
“Since you don’t like me, why don’t you divorce me?”
Fu Yao grabbed her chin and looked at her face carefully. His strength grew stronger and stronger. “It’s because the more I hate you, the more I want to tie you up so you can go down with me.”
Shen Qieyi frowned and pushed him away. She laughed angrily. “No, you’re wrong. I don’t want to be with you anymore. Not even for another second.”
Fu Yao gritted his teeth as his ego was hurt. “Shen Qieyi, you’re really something!”
With that, he left without looking back.
The deafening sound of the door closing entered Shen Qieyi’s ears.
The two parted unhappily.
Time passed, and the autumn wind was bleak.
Shen Qieyi acted as if nothing had happened. As usual, she got up early to exercise, had breakfast, and went to work.
On the surface, everything was going smoothly and orderly, but there was a place deep in her heart that quietly collapsed.
During the break, she and the nurse chatted and relaxed in the pantry.
She didn’t know whether it was intentional or not, but she would always bump into Mo Yirou.
Looking at the scene of Mo Yirou flirting shyly with others, Shen Qieyi felt nothing. She just wondered why she was everywhere.
The friendship between the two of them was completely ruined as Shen Qieyi blatantly neglected her.
Shen Qieyi had a strong temper, so she couldn’t tolerate a two-faced person like Mo Yirou.
Amidst her busy schedule, she looked at the traffic outside the window and sometimes thought of Fu Yao.
She had not seen him for a long time.
Fu family was only an empty shell.
Shen Qieyi even made the decision to send the servants back to the Fu mansion, leaving only Zhangma to accompany them.
She felt free and unrestrained.
The Fu family was like a shady grave, but also like a stage for her solo performance.
Shen Qieyi was not sure how long more she could tolerate it.
On this day, on the way home, the spacious road was jammed.
She waited patiently. As she browsed the news with her head down, a property advertisement popped up. Shen Qieyi subconsciously swiped it away.
Suddenly, she thought of something and started searching for houses for sale.
It seemed like it was time to leave that place.
The car slowly flowed into the smooth traffic, and the surrounding scenery was quickly retreating.
Shen Qieyi’s emotions at this moment were hard to describe. There were joy, sadness, longing, and reluctance. But she knew that she should carry the burden forward instead of looking back.
In the Fu Group, the assistants on the top floor had been complaining for many days.
The reason was that Fu Yao had been working non stop since he reappeared.
He even used the lounge as his home. Besides going for meetings, he did not leave the room.
The proposal that his subordinates had submitted was rejected again and again, as if no one could satisfy Fu Yao’s wishes. His subordinates didn’t even dare to breathe loudly and could only chase after Fu Yao’s footsteps exhaustedly.
Fu Yao’s temper was getting more and more irritable. From time to time, he would get angry because of small mistakes, which kept everyone in the company on their toes.
The assistant accompanying the boss was like accompanying a tiger. He was afraid that he would lose his job if he irritated his boss.
Fu Yao wasn’t aware of this.
Finally, in the evening, the employees left work one after another.
Fu Yao stood straight in front of the window of the office, put out the cigarette butt, and lit another cigarette, but he didn’t smoke. He just watched it burn quietly.
Looking at the city lights outside the window, Fu Yao realized that he was the most lonely man, like a trapped beast in a steel tower.
His phone kept ringing, and there was no sign of stopping. Fu Yao glanced at the phone and picked it up.
Fu Yao couldn’t be bothered to greet him. “This better be urgent.”
“…” The person on the other end of the line was still in the joy of being connected, and the next second, he splashed cold water on him.
Fu Yao frowned. “I’ll hang up if you don’t say anything.”
“Don’t! Are you a bomb? You’re exploding without any trigger.” Zhong Han’s cheeky voice immediately sounded.
This time, it was Fu Yao’s turn to be speechless.
“I heard that you’ve been miserable and staying in your company’s building? Hahaha! That’s hilarious!”
“Come here quickly. There are many interesting rumors about you here.”
“… What are you talking about?” Fu Yao didn’t know what he should feel.
“Hahaha, they say that the prince of Fu family has a home that he can’t go back to, so he can only work hard in the company?” Zhong Han hugged the beautiful women on his left and right, laughing so hard.
“If you’re not going to be serious, I’m hanging up.” Fu Yao’s face instantly turned cold after being stabbed in the heart.
“No, no, I want to ask you something serious.”
“How’s your divorce going? I’ve got a bunch of beauties waiting for you to choose from.”
“Du, du, du…”
Fu Yao’s face darkened as he hung up the phone without hesitation.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to go back to that house. He was just afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control his emotions when he faced Shen Qieyi and completely ruin this precarious marriage.
Sitting behind his office desk, he casually flipped through the documents. Zhong Han’s call completely disturbed his mind.
It was impossible to solve the problem by running away from reality.
After thinking for a long time, Fu Yao made a call.
The other person quickly picked up. “Mr. Fu.”
“Help me investigate something. Hurry up. I’ll wait for your report tonight…” Fu Yao’s fingertips tapped on the table as he spoke.
Fu Yao’s private investigator was extremely skilled. As he listened carefully, he quickly typed out a few key points on his computer.
After everything was settled, Fu Yao hung up the phone.
At ten o’clock at night, Fu Yao was in the resting room, focused on grinding coffee. The room was quiet and fragrant.
The call that he had been waiting for a long time finally came.
Fu Yao did not stop his work and immediately picked up the call.
“Mr. Fu, the information is ready and sent to your email.”
He hung up the phone and poured coffee calmly. This call calmed his dilemma.
He walked to his computer with a cup of coffee in his hand. Fu Yao sat down and clicked the message in the lower right corner of the screen.
He didn’t know how to face the truth next, but he had to push himself.
The screen shone on his serious face, and everything became quiet.
As the mouse scrolled down little by little and Fu Yao read more, his brows knitted tighter together.
The cursor finally reached the last line. Fu Yao’s eyes didn’t blink and he was slightly lost in thought.
How could this be? Shen Yuan…
