My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy

Chapter 104: 104 He Reveals the Terrifying Truth_1

However, apparently, I underestimated Ye Mengyan’s ruthless indifference.

On the other end of the phone, there was a long silence.

Under my urging, she finally struggled to speak.

“Xiaoyun, please tell him that I’m very busy and can’t get away!”

“Ye Mengyan, let me remind you that this could be the last time you ever see each other.”

“Xiaoyun, as you know, Shen Yishu is my ex. If I see him, Brother Gu will be upset…”

“Woman, you can be so cold-hearted. Shen Yishu was really good to you before.”

“We have long broken up, I have no obligation or responsibility to see him.”

With that said, she hung up first.

Leaving me in shock.

It took me a while to recover. Only then did I realize that Shen Yishu had already woken up and was staring at me.

He had an indescribable pain in his eyes.

Obviously, he heard my conversation with Ye Mengyan just now.

“Yishu, what you just heard…”

“Xiaoyun, you don’t need to comfort me, I already know!”

After Ding Yinuo examined him, he found that apart from many scratches on his body and a concussion, Shen Yishu had no other fatal injuries.

His injuries were not severe and did not require hospitalization.

After Ding Yinuo finished his examination, he called Su Peisheng to bring over some medicine.

Around eight o’clock, Wenya also brought over breakfast.

After hearing my description, Wenya shook her head, expressing pity for Shen Yishu.

“Poor kid! This blow must be a lifetime’s worth for him.”

Su Peisheng passed the medicine to Ding Yinuo and also sighed.

“Women can be truly terrifying when they become ruthless.”

Wenya, sipping her milk tea, gave Su Peisheng a look.

“Men are more ruthless when they cheat, aren’t they?”

Su Peisheng didn’t back down.

“Ever heard of ‘a woman’s heart is the deadliest’.”

Wenya scoffed, “No mercy, no real man!”

After giving Shen Yishu his medicine, Ding Yinuo pulled me into another room.

“If Gu Yuanzhou wants Shen Yishu dead, and you step in to save him, you’re going against Gu Yuanzhou. Are you prepared for what comes after?”

“Isn’t that bound to happen sooner or later?”

Why should I fear him?

Ye Mengyan and I have openly declared our enmity. I’m afraid worse things may happen in the future.

“You seem fearless.”

“Ding Yinuo, is it your first day knowing me?”

Ding Yinuo was very close to me, reaching out to hold my chin.

“You’ve experienced death once already, shouldn’t you have learned to be more cautious by now? Leave him, move out. If you don’t want to stay in Xishan Residence, I can find you another place.”

“Ding Yinuo, what are you implying, you want to keep me?”

“Take it however you want!”

“Ha… I’m not afraid of death. Desperate times, desperate measures. To ruin the life of this pair is my mission.”

I’m really not afraid. I’ve already died once.

Death no longer scares me, at worst, I’d have a second go at it.

Ding Yinuo’s eyes narrowed slightly, his voice trembled in urgency.

“Do you only think of yourself? Haven’t you ever thought about how others would feel? Do you know that if you were gone again, someone would mourn, would be so hurt they might wish they were dead too?”

In his anxiety, his voice was rather hoarse.

I was calm, and quickly rebutted,

“Who are those ‘others’?”

Ding Yinuo replied, “Don’t you care about anyone else in this world other than Gu Yuanzhou?”

“No!”

I firmly stated.

Having no one to worry about, I fear nothing and yield to no one.

I won’t let anyone become my weakness.

Ding Yinuo visibly looked defeated, the light in his eyes gradually faded, he let go of me abruptly.

“Alright, if you don’t care then I don’t either!”

He left in a huff after that.

I took a deep breath, gradually relaxing my nervous mind.

Wenya walked into the room and looked at me.

“Did Ding Yinuo do anything to you?”

I shrugged my shoulders.

“He’s just overthinking things!”

“Can I interpret that as he cares about you? Xiaoyun, should you consider Ding Yinuo?”

“Wenya, are you joking? Ding Yinuo and I, how could we possibly… Don’t you know what I’m about to do?”

The person I’m going to deal with next is Gu Yuanzhou.

In some sense, Gu Yuanzhou is more difficult to deal with than Ding Yinuo.

Ding Yinuo, although often causing trouble, has moral bottom line, he doesn’t do outrageously bad things.

But Gu Yuanzhou can do all sorts of things.

Therefore, I must be all in. Before that, I don’t want to have any romantic entanglements with any man.

“You… I meant that, having one more person to care for you, wouldn’t it become easier to accomplish what you want to do?”

“No, men only slow down my sword-wielding speed.”

“Enough with the bull, you are not a swordsman!”

We left the room chattering and arguing.

That’s when I realized that Ding Yinuo had not gone far. He had been standing behind the door the whole time, he must have heard my conversation with Wenya.

After Wenya came out, she signaled something to him with her eyes.

He glanced at me and then turned and left.

Half an hour later, I entered Shen Yishu’s room.

He had already awakened, lying on his side on the bed, his shoulders shaking non-stop.

“Um, if you’re upset, can we talk about it?”

I knew that this young man must have been unable to bear the pain of being abandoned.

He didn’t want people to see his tears, so he…

After a while, Shen Yishu turned around to face me.

“I’m fine, I’m doing well!”

From his eyes, I saw tears, and also the forced composure after the sadness.

“There’s really no need to hide your emotions!”

Shen Yishu sat on the edge of the bed, his hands stiffened as they clasped together. He paused for quite some time before saying, “You must think I’m a wimp, don’t you?”

“Why do you say that?”

“A man shouldn’t be crying after a breakup.”

I laughed and patted his shoulder, counseling him like an older sister would.

“Men are humans too, and human beings have feelings. Why should women be allowed to cry and men not? On the contrary, your sorrow proves that you are an affectionate man, which is good…. However, there’s something I want to remind you about. You should give your feelings to a good woman. Those with twisted values and intentions, they are not worth your devotion. They don’t deserve your tears.”

My words left Shen Yishu momentarily stunned. His emotions gradually stabilized, and he began to tell me about what happened today.

The truth of the matter was not what I had imagined. I had completely misunderstood.

The person Gu Yuanzhou wanted to target was not Shen Yishu, but another person.
