Complicated Entanglements
The place where Xia Luhe arranged to meet Mu Yunxi is not far away, just a short distance outside the villa area where the Xia family lives. So she didn't drive but walked there.
Entering the café, Xia Luhe ordered a cup of coffee. Just as she took a sip after the coffee was served, Mu Yunxi entered.
Mu Yunxi: Has Lulu finally realized that I'm better than Nan Jinru?
Mu Yunxi sat in front of Xia Luhe and said with a smile.
Xia Luhe: Don't be so flippant.
Xia Luhe: Mu Yunxi, I called you here today because there's something I want to ask you to help with.
Mu Yunxi: Alright, Lulu. Speak. I'm listening.
Xia Luhe: As you know, I only like Nan Jinru. I want to win him back. Please pretend to be my boyfriend and make him jealous.
Mu Yunxi: Sure.
Xia Luhe: You agreed so easily?
Xia Luhe was somewhat surprised.
Mu Yunxi: Isn't it good that I agreed?
Mu Yunxi: Or does Lulu still want me to discuss some conditions?
Xia Luhe: Of course not.
Xia Luhe: Then let's have a pleasant cooperation?
Mu Yunxi: This isn't cooperation.
Mu Yunxi: Lulu, you should understand that I like you. So I'm willing to do anything for you.
Mu Yunxi's sudden confession made Xia Luhe feel a bit uncomfortable. She even wondered in her heart if asking Mu Yunxi for help was really the right choice.
Xia Luhe: Alright, I'm going back. I'll call you when I need you.
Xia Luhe stood up, took her bag and walked outside.
Mu Yunxi: Let me send you.
Mu Yunxi stood up and followed.
Xia Luhe: No need.
Just then, Xia Luhe's phone rang. Looking at the number, it was Nan Jinru calling.
Xia Luhe hung up without hesitation.
Mu Yunxi: Not answering?
Mu Yunxi raised an eyebrow.
Xia Luhe: Do you mind if we take a photo?
Xia Luhe asked.
Mu Yunxi: Of course not.
Xia Luhe hooked her arm around Mu Yunxi's neck, kissed him on the cheek, and then took a photo and sent it to Nan Jinru.
Xia Luhe: I will only listen to matters regarding divorce. For other things, I won't listen.
Xia Luhe: I'm with my new boyfriend. If there's nothing else, please don't call me.
After sending the message, Xia Luhe put her phone on silent mode.
Xia Luhe: Alright, I'm leaving.
Xia Luhe waved at Mu Yunxi and walked towards the villa area.
Mu Yunxi touched his cheek and looked at Xia Luhe's back with a charming smile.
When Nan Jinru received the photo and message from Xia Luhe, his face turned green with anger.
At this moment, he really didn't understand what Xia Luhe wanted.
It was she who said she loved him before. It was she who didn't want a divorce. Now it was also she who said she didn't love him and wanted a divorce.
Nan Jinru's veins bulged on his hands. Looking at the already empty house, his frown deepened.
If he hadn't come back in time, this house might have belonged to someone else.
Nan Jinru took his coat and went out. He was going to the Xia family to ask clearly what Xia Luhe was up to.
Xia Luhe returned to the Xia family. After telling Xia's mother, she went upstairs.
When she woke up from her nap, she found there was an extra person in the room.
Xia Luhe: When did you come?
Xia Luhe looked at Nan Jinru sitting by her bed as if she had seen a ghost.
Nan Jinru: You sold the house without even telling me. And you sent me an intimate photo with Mu Yunxi. Xiaohe, if you wanted to make me jealous, then you really succeeded. I am indeed jealous.
Xia Luhe: You're overthinking. I really want a divorce from you.
Xia Luhe: Now, please get out. I want to take a bath.
Nan Jinru: Xiaohe, have you forgotten that we're still husband and wife?
Nan Jinru: It's very normal for husband and wife to take a bath together, right?
Nan Jinru curved his lips. He stood up and directly took off his suit jacket. Seeing this, Xia Luhe immediately tried to crawl away from the other side of the bed, but was dragged back by Nan Jinru who held her leg.
Nan Jinru carried Xia Luhe and walked into the bathroom. Then he put her in the bathtub. He took the shower head, turned it on and tested the water temperature before spraying it on Xia Luhe.
Xia Luhe was instantly soaked all over.
