Mu Xiaoyu practically shouted these words, and after she finished speaking, tears streamed down her face.
This time, before Li Chenxu could speak, she continued, "You guys are really ruthless, keeping something like this from me. I've always heard people say 'beware of fire, thieves, and best friends,' but I never really thought about it. I trusted my friends and my husband. But one day, this kind of ridiculous thing actually happened to me."
"Li Chenxu, even if you don't like me anymore and have fallen for someone else, you could have just told me you wanted a divorce. Now you've slept with Bai Luo and are telling me you want a divorce. Do you think you've done right by me?"
Mu Xiaoyu's accusations were almost desperate, filled with a heavy, almost overwhelming sadness.
Li Chenxu stood there without moving, looking at Mu Xiaoyu who had fallen to the ground. He didn't reach out to help her up, but simply said, "I know I've wronged you, so I said that no matter what compensation you want to ask for, I will do it. Xiaoyu, I'm sorry."
"You say 'I'm sorry' so easily."
The death of Mu Xiaoyu's mother had already overwhelmed her with immense grief. Now, with Li Chenxu's betrayal, even though she was extremely saddened, she was still able to maintain the last shred of her dignity.
She stood up unsteadily, and when she saw Li Chenxu's gesture to help her up, she quickly dodged it. Her lifeless eyes wouldn't even look at him as she turned and left, saying, "I'll agree to the divorce. As for the specific conditions, let me think about it. Since you don't like me anymore, let's start sleeping in separate rooms from tonight. Sleeping in the same room again would be ridiculous for both of us, wouldn't it?"
After saying this, Mu Xiaoyu stumbled out of the study.
Unbeknownst to her, the instant she left, Li Chenxu knelt down on the floor of the study with a thud.
Sometimes, before you even start doing something, many people think it's easy.
But once you do it, especially if you hurt the person you love most, the feeling is like having your heart repeatedly fried in a pan of oil, causing extreme pain.
Li Chenxu clutched his chest tightly with one hand, trying to ignore the pain, but it was just too much. Even he couldn't bear it, let alone Mu Xiaoyu...
Mu Xiaoyu didn't even take off her clothes before lying down on the bed in her room.
She covered her eyes with her hands, thinking that this would make her appear less vulnerable. Even so, tears continued to flow.
The room was dark and quiet. In that instant, an overwhelming sense of loneliness almost overwhelmed Mu Xiaoyu.
She suddenly felt like laughing, laughing at herself now. Before she knew her mother was alive, before she reconciled with Li Chenxu, she was actually alone, but she never felt as lonely as she does now.
But now, having had everything, I feel lonely.
Therefore, people shouldn't have too much, otherwise they will easily become greedy and fragile.
Mu Xiaoyu was in such a bad mental state that she cried herself to sleep in bed.
She had cried for so long and so much that her eyes and the area around them were swollen. When Li Chenxu came in, Mu Xiaoyu, who was lying on the bed, did not react at all.
Li Chenxu deliberately slowed his pace, and only when he reached Mu Xiaoyu's side and saw that Mu Xiaoyu still had no reaction did he feel relieved.
He half-squatted on the bed, his dark eyes quietly watching Mu Xiaoyu, who had fallen asleep, his eyes filled with sorrow.
Li Chenxu watched Mu Xiaoyu quietly. As Mu Xiaoyu slept, a tear suddenly rolled down her cheek. He subconsciously reached out to gently wipe the tear from her face, but then seemed to remember something and pulled his hand back to his side, clenching it into a fist.
I'm sorry, Xiaoyu.
After saying this blankly, Li Chenxu withdrew his gaze from Mu Xiaoyu, then stood up and left the room.
Actually, he did not wrong Mu Xiaoyu; if anyone is to blame, it is only fate.
Two people who could have lived happily together have ended up like this because of the grudges of the previous generation.
However, Li Chenxu did not give up. He was only temporarily divorcing Mu Xiaoyu. Once everything was resolved, he would still be with Mu Xiaoyu; he couldn't live without her.
The next morning, when Li Chenxu came downstairs, Mu Xiaoyu had already washed up and put on makeup and was downstairs.
Mu Xiaoyu had clearly dressed up carefully, making herself look clean and tidy, with exquisite makeup. It was almost impossible to tell that the person who had cried out in such a heart-wrenching way last night was her.
Li Chenxu was clearly surprised by Mu Xiaoyu's reaction. He paused for a moment, and for some reason, a sense of unease welled up in his heart.
"Why don't you come down?"
Mu Xiaoyu had noticed Li Chenxu long ago. Seeing that he was still standing motionless at the top of the stairs, Mu Xiaoyu suddenly spoke up.
As she spoke, she looked up at Li Chenxu, her gaze calm and unwavering, all her emotions hidden beneath her serene eyes.
Li Chenxu glanced at Mu Xiaoyu, then silently walked down.
He sat down opposite Mu Xiaoyu. The two of them used to always like to sit together. Even though they were both mature adults approaching thirty and had been married for so many years, they were still incredibly affectionate with each other at home.
Now, however, the distance between the two is almost the width of several people. In just a few days, they have become as unfamiliar as strangers.
A hint of mockery flashed in Mu Xiaoyu's eyes, but it was fleeting, almost too fast for anyone to catch.
"I've thought about what happened last night. If you want a divorce, fine. But you have to agree to a few conditions."
"Just name your conditions. As long as I can do it... no, as long as you ask, I'll do it even if it's beyond my capabilities."
Mu Xiaoyu nodded, clearly unconcerned about Li Chenxu's attitude, and continued, "Don't worry, I won't make any unreasonable demands, and I don't want your money. I have enough money to support myself. All I want is this house we have now, and for you and Bai Luo to come to us in person and apologize to me. Other than that, I don't want anything. Oh, and by the way, you have to take all your belongings in the villa, including the servants."
