My Wife Is Dominant - Chapter 96

Chapter 96 Four People Caught in the Cold War
In the corridor, the dim light flashed on and off, and a cold wind blew, making people feel chilly.

Chen Keren and Yi Duanfang stood there. They didn’t look at each other, and there were complex emotions in their lonely eyes. Yi Duanfang wanted to explain, but there was no reason to explain the current situation. Also, Chen Keren always believed what she saw, so she was already disheartened at the moment.

Yi Duanfang didn’t know that Chen Keren’s anger and disappointment at this moment were far deeper than he had imagined because he didn’t know that Chen Keren had already deeply loved him. No matter how arrogant Chen Keren was, she still felt like she was being tortured because she was deceived by the man she liked.

A woman’s heart was always fragile. No matter how strong their appearance was, when she faced the person she liked, her heart was always sensitive and needed to be cared for.

Besides disappointment, the most painful thing for Chen Keren was that she finally realized that Yi Duanfang really didn’t like her at all. Otherwise, he would not do this kind of thing. She didn’t even want to ask him why, because she thought that it was unnecessary, and some mistakes could not be forgiven. So no matter what reason he had, there was no need to waste time listening. This was Chen Keren’s method and principle of handling things.

After a while, Tong Siqi came out of the ward. She looked refreshed like she got something lucky. If a stranger watched this scene, they might think that she had a good relationship with Chen Kexin, and the news of Chen Kexin getting better made her happy. But her expression, in Chen Keren’s eyes, was so disgusting.

“It’s getting late, let’s have dinner, Duanfang.” She said in a good mood to Yi Duanfang, ignoring the cold expression of Chen Keren, then she went and linked arms with him.

Frowning, Yi Duanfang looked at Tong Siqi with great discomfort, but Tong Siqi said calmly, “Let’s go.”

Yi Duanfang just opened his mouth, but only saw Chen Keren quietly opening the door and walking into the ward.

At this moment, his heart felt like it was chained by heavy shackles, making Yi Duanfang feel suffocated. At this point, he had no mood to care about how arrogant Tong Siqi was, or how angry he was. His eyes were looking at the closed door, and all he thought of was Chen Keren’s lonely figure.

That strange feeling once again occupied his heart. Yi Duanfang felt that he held a special feeling towards Chen Keren, one that was not as simple as friendship.

“Why are you here?” At this moment, Wang Weixi stood opposite them, and looked at Yi Duanfang with a sullen look, and asked coldly.

Yi Duanfang looked at Wang Weixi with shock, and then looked at Tong Siqi next him. “Didn’t he go back to the company?”

The corners of her mouth curled up, and she said faintly. “Of course I came here to see your wife, but I know that you don’t want to see me, so I could only invite Duanfang to come with me. Since you are here now, I should go back, in case you feel uncomfortable.”

Wang Weixi looked at Yi Duanfang strangely. He knew how Yi Duanfang hated Tong Siqi, but what happened today? Yi Duanfang bowed his head, but Tong Siqi did not give up, leaning her head on Yi Duanfang’s arm and chuckled. “Duanfang, we should go back.”

These words made Wang Weixi furious. He couldn’t wait to ask Yi Duanfang for an explanation at this moment, but Tong Siqi was here, and he could only look at Yi Duanfang with a kind of almost angry expression.

Yi Duanfang felt so tired. He pulled his arm with impatience and tried to suppress his anger. He said with a gruff voice, “You go back first, I will go back later.”

Tong Siqi was not angry and left alone in a good mood.

After Tong Siqi left, Wang Weixi kept calm, and asked, “Duanfang, why did you come with Siqi? You clearly know…”

“Don’t ask me, I have my reasons, you know that I do things according to my mood. You guys may not like it, but I have no other way. I can only say that I’m sorry.” Yi Duanfang helplessly shook his head. He knew that he was fooled by Tong Siqi tonight, but there was no choice. He could only bear it alone.

“If I wasn’t so impulsive at the beginning, I would not suffer this now, but… I don’t regret it at all, because it was the only time… Although it was not voluntary, it was the only time I told others about this long-lost secret. Except for that time, I never talked about it to anyone, the inner repression made me go crazy several times…”

He thought this, while Wang Weixi shook his head helplessly and said, “I know that you must have your own reasons, but in Kexin’s mind, you are her good friend. Aren’t you afraid of hurting Kexin and Keren? What’s more, Keren…” At this point, Wang Weixi stopped talking, because the guilty expression of Yi Duanfang made him unable to continue.

Yi Duanfang bit his lips and said, “I’m sorry, I will explain it to you later, just… I will go back first.” He knew that at this stage he was too ashamed to talk with Chen Kexin. Yesterday and today, he had said that he didn’t want anyone to hurt her, but in the end, he hurt her.

“Alright, you go back first.” Wang Weixi was not worried about Chen Kexin, but was worried that Chen Keren would be angry. In the ward, if she lost her temper, Yi Duanfang would definitely get injured. Thinking of this, he shook his head helplessly, many of the recent things were out of his control, and he was somewhat unable to cope.

It was a very ordinary life, why did it become like this?

Yi Duanfang nodded and left with heavy steps.

“The weather is getting colder, remember to wear warm clothes. Don’t wear canvas shoes anymore, your feet will get cold. Also, you should call home more, your aunt said she misses you, let’s go home together in our free time.” Wang Weixi said faintly, although his tone was calm, the concern was already overwhelming.

Yi Duanfang stood there blankly. At this time, he stood side by side with Wang Weixi, but their directions were completely opposite, just like two parallel lines which would never intersect.

Yi Duanfang moved his lips and whispered, “I see.” Then he left quietly.

In this cold corridor, the cold wind blew, and Wang Weixi turned and looked in the direction of the elevator, sighed helplessly, and then slowly walked towards the ward.

In the ward, the lights were still as warm as yesterday, and the white quilt wrapped Chen Kexin. Chen Keren stood by Chen Kexin and quietly peeled an apple.

Wang Weixi saw yesterday’s blue roses in the garbage bin, and in the vase, fresh blue roses were in it. The beautiful blue roses emitted a faint scent on this lonely night.

But there was another bouquet of flowers on the other side of the bed in the ward, which was placed in a beautiful vase. The vase was red, slender as the crescent moon, and had a unique design, it was more attractive than the bouquet of lilies inside.

“Someone was here?” Thinking of the famous car seen downstairs, Wang Weixi frowned and asked.

Chen Keren handed the apple to Chen Kexin, glancing at the bouquet of fragrant lilies. “Lan Xiao was here this afternoon, but he just left.”

Wang Weixi’s face fell. He settled his eyes on Chen Kexin who just smiled and ate the apple. She didn’t look up at Wang Weixi. Seemingly feeling Wang Weixi’s gaze, she put down the apple, raised her eyes, and her tone was calm, “Did Duanfang leave?”

Wang Weixi nodded. “Yes.”

Chen Kexin nodded and stopped talking.

Wang Weixi glanced at the bouquet of lilies, still keeping silent.

“Your high school classmate came again in the afternoon. Her ruddy face is much more beautiful than when I first met her. It seems that women really need love.” She chuckled, and there was something behind her dull tone.

Wang Weixi’s face did not change one bit. “Did she? Our cooperation was successful, so I guess that she will be promoted to the general manager position when she goes back, so she is happy. Moreover, she will go back to the company soon, she must feel happy.”

Hearing Wang Weixi’s answer, Chen Kexin just raised her mouth and continued to eat her apple.

The atmosphere immediately became very awkward.

Wang Weixi didn’t know what Tong Siqi had said to Chen Kexin, but he knew that even if he explained at this moment, Chen Kexin would not believe it. Moreover, if Tong Siqi did not say anything, and Chen Kexin was only trying to test him, his explanation would become a confession.

For the first time, he felt that a woman’s mind was really difficult to understand, and he never thought that Chen Kexin, who had a simple mind, would have such an elusive side.

“Duanfang…” Wang Weixi stared at Chen Keren who had walked to the outside of the landing window and looked at the sky blankly.

Chen Keren pretended that she didn’t hear it. At this time, she only felt sick when she heard his name.

Chen Kexin asked with great interest, “What happened to Duanfang? What did he say?” In fact, she also wanted to know the reason why he was so strange today.

Wang Weixi shook his head and said, “Nothing, but his expression looks very bad.”

“If you do something wrong, naturally your expression won’t be good.” At this moment, Chen Keren turned around and her cold face was full of anger. It was just that she had no way to vent. If it was as per normal, she would definitely slap Yi Duanfang, or beat him up. But today, even if she knew Yi Duanfang was guilty, even if she knew that Yi Duanfang knew that he did something wrong, she didn’t want to say anything. She didn’t want to do anything to him and didn’t want to have any relationship with him. Today’s Yi Duanfang, for her, was just a hateful stranger.

Wang Weixi frowned, but in the end, he did not say a word.

During the hour he lingered in the ward, Chen Kexin did not say many words to him. Most of the time he stood in front of the window and stared blankly. When he turned back occasionally, he would see Chen Keren playing with the lilies, and Chen Kexin would grin at that bunch of flowers. Lily… Chen Kexin’s favorite was the lily.

Wang Weixi smiled helplessly and chatted with Chen Kexin a few words, and then he finally left.

“Don’t come tomorrow. I heard that you will be very busy recently. Take good care of yourself. I have Keren here.” When he walked to the door, Chen Kexin’s words rang behind his back.

Wang Weixi’s heart was full of bitterness, those words must have been said by Tong Siqi, but what else did she say?

Looking back, he forced a smile and said gently, “Well, you must eat well too.”

Chen Kexin smiled and nodded. Wang Weixi wanted to say something, but Chen Kexin had already turned her face and reached out to fiddle with the lily bouquet.

“Smells good.” The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her fascinating appearance would cause people to stop and stare.

In the beauty of that moment, Wang Weixi knew that this beauty did not belong to him.

Therefore, he left lonely.

This night, four people felt more distant and strange.
