Chapter 98: Chapter 98 Shameless
Shen Heyu hadn’t managed to vent the rage in her heart when she saw Pei Yansi stand up, preempting her by saying, “Isn’t our daughter hungry? Let’s make dinner.”
Aunt Ning was actually already cooking, and she had even served some dishes on the dining table.
But Pei Yansi still got up and went into the kitchen. It wasn’t for nothing; he glanced at the dishes on the table and felt they weren’t nutritious enough for the child.
He had always been very confident in his cooking skills.
He entered the kitchen and said to Aunt Ning, “You go out first.”
Aunt Ning paused, looked at Shen Heyu, and waited to hear what she had to say.
Shen Heyu signaled with a glance, and Aunt Ning then left, taking care of Yuexue in the living room.
Shen Heyu walked into the kitchen, glanced at Yuexue who was happily playing with Aunt Ning in the living room, and silently closed the kitchen door before turning to Pei Yansi and asking, “What exactly are you trying to do?”
Pei Yansi opened the fridge, took out a few simple ingredients, and said, “I’m making dinner for my daughter.”
“Don’t twist words around, Pei Yansi. What are you really trying to say? We’re already divorced. I hope you can understand your proper place.”
Pei Yansi frowned but persisted with his point of view, saying, “My place is as Yuexue’s father, your only man. Even if we’re divorced, anyone else to you would still be a stranger.”
“You’re being unreasonable!”
“You might think so.” He always had a strong sense of purpose in everything he did, a flaw but also a strength.
His current objective was to keep mother and daughter by his side. The process didn’t matter, the result did.
Shen Heyu watched him cook with skilled movements, and no matter how angry she felt inside, she couldn’t find a way to lash out. He was just so persistent. How had she not noticed this before?
In fact, Pei Yansi wasn’t just being persistent, he was extremely dominant. Whatever he wanted to do, Shen Heyu couldn’t stop it.
Pei Yansi moved quickly, and it didn’t take him long in the kitchen to finish the last dish and cook a simple soup with the most basic ingredients.
Shen Heyu had been watching him the whole time, her gaze like that of an enemy, but when the soup was ready, she found it smelled delicious.
The scent filled the kitchen.
Pei Yansi brought out the soup and personally served a bowl to Yuexue. Yuexue was already seated, experiencing kindness from Pei Yansi for the first time, feeling something inexplicable in her tender heart.
She obediently took a sip and then said to Shen Heyu, “Mommy, it smells so good!”
Shen Heyu knew his cooking was excellent.
She looked at Pei Yansi, and no matter how dissatisfied she felt, she couldn’t reprimand him in front of her daughter’s happy face.
She quietly ate her dinner, thinking to herself, after dinner he should surely leave, right?
Instead, after dinner, Yuexue started to feel sleepy and wanted to take a bath. Shen Heyu wanted to find a moment to get rid of Pei Yansi and asked Aunt Ning to help out.
Aunt Ning took the daughter to the bathroom, and Shen Heyu then pulled Pei Yansi aside and said, “You can leave now. You’ve had your dinner and your drink. What else do you want?”
“I haven’t gotten the person yet,” Pei Yansi replied sternly and coldly, speaking earnestly.
“…” Shen Heyu was thoroughly angered by his words.
What does he mean he hasn’t gotten the person yet?!
As he looked at her face turning red with anger, Pei Yansi paused. In his heart, he actually remembered something his grandmother had said: to smooth out the wrinkles in Shen Heyu’s heart from the past, only then might she possibly return to his side.
He thus took the initiative to explain, “What I mean is, I want to take you and our daughter away.”
“Impossible!”
Seeing her adamant demeanor, Pei Yansi frowned.
He knew that his soft temper was of no use; against a woman like Shen Heyu, who was also somewhat assertive, he should use more forceful measures.
Therefore, he simply sat on the sofa and said nothing.
Shen Heyu was provoked. She pulled and hit him, but her strength was nothing to him; it even amused him to some extent.
He bore a couple of blows, and somehow, her actions ignited a wicked fire in his lower abdomen.
When she reached out for who knows what time, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
Shen Heyu, caught off guard, tumbled directly into his embrace. She furrowed her brows, and before she could react, his kiss descended.
The kiss came so suddenly that Shen Heyu was startled; Yuexue was still in the bathroom, and could come out at any moment with Aunt Ning!
She struggled in his arms. Unbeknownst to her, such struggling was more arousing to a man. Instead of letting her go, he intensified his efforts.
He was displeased, stretching out his hand to press against the back of her head, preventing her from pulling back.
After a long time, he finally let her go, reaching out to touch her lips, which had become moistened from his recent kissing, and said, “I’ve taken to heart what Grandmother said, wanting to bring you and Yuexue back, I need to apologize first.”
“Heyu, you know me, I don’t apologize. Give me a chance, I can prove it with my actions…”
“Who wants your apology?!”
Shen Heyu cut him off directly. She had held no expectations for him since her return to the country, even if her heart… still harbored unforgettable feelings for him.
But the pain of the past few years was also unforgettable.
Between the two, she only wanted to keep her distance from him, to maintain a good relationship, and never to get involved with this dangerous man again.
Thinking this, she stood up from the sofa. Just then, Yuexue and Aunt Ning came out, with Yuexue rubbing her eyes and saying goodnight to Shen He before heading off to her room.
Yuexue was six and had started sleeping on her own. Her bed in her room was also very spacious, as Shen Heyu was concerned about children growing and liked to toss and turn while sleeping.
So the bed that was prepared in Yuexue’s room was actually quite roomy.
Seeing that Pei Yansi did not seem like he was going to leave and knowing she could not stop this man from doing what he wanted, she said, “You sleep in my room, I’ll sleep with Yuexue. I hope that tomorrow morning, you won’t have the nerve to stay any longer. Otherwise, I will call the police.”
Pei Yansi looked at her indifferently without a word, but under those shallow eyes, there was a suggestion of something profound.
Shen Heyu felt a chill at the bottom of her heart, feeling as if he was scheming something in his mind… It was the same look he had given her all those years ago when he tormented her in those indescribable places.
She quickly averted her eyes and walked into the bathroom to take a shower.
After the shower, she went to Yuexue’s room, planning to rest with Yuexue for the night.
Not long after she entered, the sound of water came from the outside bathroom. Pei Yansi was taking a shower.
For some reason, Shen Heyu thought back to their marital life before Yuexue was born…
She shook her head, casting out those strange thoughts, and prepared to sleep peacefully.
Just as she closed her eyes, the water stopped, and the sound of a man’s footsteps approached. He opened the door to her room directly, not going to the room she had mentioned at all!
What do you think?
