"An apology is all you need? Look at what you did to my husband! I'm going to call the police and sue you for assault. Go, get out of here!" The woman dragged Xiang Muyang out.
Xiang Muyang didn't expect to be entangled by someone. He frowned and pulled his hand out with force.
"This money is enough for you to recover from ten injuries." He impatiently pulled out a dozen bills from his wallet and threw them to the woman, still thinking about Shu Nian and Ye Yan. "I don't have time to mess around with you. If you don't want to get hurt again, find a good place. This is a public place. Otherwise, people will misunderstand you for having an affair!"
"This is our marital interest, what's wrong with it? Does it bother you? Or are you unsatisfied and jealous of our good relationship?" The woman spoke sharply and did not give up, but she took the money and did not chase after him. She threw the garbage to Mu Yang and walked towards the elevator.
At this moment, Shu Nian and Ye Yan were probably still downstairs. He became more and more anxious to know what they were doing.
——
Xiang Muyang's footsteps could no longer be heard.
In the dimly lit floor, Shu Nian breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the wall.
Ye Yan put his hands in his pockets, stood leisurely in front of her, and looked at her with scrutiny, "Are you so afraid that he will know?"
Shu Nian has regained his composure, "I just don't want my dad to know."
"But he'll know sooner or later."
Yeah, sooner or later I'll say it...
"He's not well yet. When he gets better, I will find a day to calmly talk to him about the divorce. But definitely not today." With Xiang Muyang still around, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't make a big deal out of it.
Ye Yan stared at Shu Nian, his eyes were sometimes light, sometimes heavy, sometimes deep, sometimes shallow, making Shu Nian feel a little helpless. He didn't know what kind of emotion he was feeling.
"Okay, he's gone!" The man and woman came back. The man smiled at Ye Yan and said, "Can you give us the money?"
Ye Yan took out a stack of money from his bag and gave it to the other party, "Thank you."
The other party looked at Ye Yan, and then glanced at Shu Nian. Shu Nian felt a little embarrassed to be looked at. After all, what happened just now... If the couple had not just walked down the stairs to take a walk to digest, they would have really been caught by Xiang Muyang.
Ye Yan noticed Shu Nian's discomfort, and with a fierce look on his face, he pulled Shu Nian behind him and glared at him fiercely, "What are you looking at! Go look at your own wife!"
The other party laughed and counted the money while saying, "In the future, if there is such a good thing again, you must remember to look for me again."
Shu Nian's face turned red. How can there be a future for something like this? Thinking about what happened with Ye Yan just now, he still felt hot and wet all over.
But the other party was still talking excitedly, "But, brother, I sincerely advise you that you really need to find a suitable place to have an affair. If you hadn't happened to meet my wife and me today, wouldn't you have been caught red-handed? Wouldn't it have caused a huge uproar? It's obvious that the man just now is not a good-tempered person."
Shu Nian couldn't bear to listen anymore, so he turned around and walked downstairs.
"Why are you so long-winded? Will you ever stop? Get out of here!" Ye Yan kicked the man impatiently on the butt. How could a man be so long-winded
—
Shu Nian and Ye Yan walked downstairs side by side. At this moment, the voice-activated lights on the floor were already on, and the ambiguity in the darkness just now gradually fermented, and both of them understood tacitly.
Shu Nian didn't know what to say to Ye Yan, but this silence made her feel uncomfortable. For a long time, there was only the sound of each other's breathing and the sound of their footsteps.
"Stay at my place tonight." Ye Yan suddenly spoke up, his tone brooking no room for argument. He glanced at Shu Nian and said, "The house you have the key to."
Shu Nian refused subconsciously, "Don't worry about me, I know what to do."
Ye Yan said with a cold face, "I don't care about you? I don't care and let you sleep with Xiang Muyang for one night?"
"Nothing will happen to us."
"It's not okay to just chat under the quilt! Besides, who can guarantee that nothing will happen? Shu Nian, don't forget last time, if I hadn't shown up, you would have..." Ye Yan said this with a little excitement. Then, he stopped talking and didn't say anything else. He just picked up Shu Nian and said, "I won't allow the two of you to sleep together! Not to mention a whole night, not even for a second!"
Shu Nian curled up in Ye Yan's arms, hooking one hand around his neck, but he didn't struggle, just looked up at him for a long time. His eyes gradually became complicated, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, he finally spoke: "Ye Yan, please put me down."
"Impossible. If you agree to come to my place today, you have to go. If you don't agree, I will tie you up and take you there."
When he reached a certain floor, he walked out of the emergency passage and went to the elevator entrance. There, the light was sufficient, and his handsome features became clearer.
Shu Nian thought he was really good-looking.
Just as Madam Xiang and his family said, a man like him would want any kind of woman he wanted. Why did he have to get entangled with a married woman like her
Shu Nian was not self-deprecating, but she and Ye Yan were actually never from the same world. She pursed her lips and spoke softly: "Ye Yan, I met your family during the few days you were away on business."
Ye Yan paused, thinking of something, and looked down at her, "Is this the reason why you didn't answer my calls these days?"
Shu Nian did not comment, "I want you to calm down."
"What are you talking about? When was I not calm?"
Shu Nian looked at Ye Yan, with a bit of bitterness in his eyes, but soon he regained his composure. "Put me down first."
Ye Yan held her in his arms, not moving.
Shu Nian looked around and saw that everyone around him cast inquiring glances at them. Both of them were very eye-catching, so it was natural for them to attract attention.
"Everyone is watching, let me down." Shu Nian tugged at his shirt sleeve.
Ye Yan hesitated for a moment, and finally let her go. However, he reached out and held her hand tightly in his palm. Her fingers were slender and soft, and he held them in his palm with one hand.
Shu Nian didn't struggle, but just let him lead her. At this moment, the elevator was opening, and the two of them entered the elevator side by side.
There were only the two of them in the elevator. Ye Yan squeezed her hand and said, "Tell me. How did I make you feel uncalm?"
"I just want you to calm down and think carefully about your feelings for me. Maybe you are just interested in me for a while, or maybe it's just an impulse. If you get into trouble with your family and hurt their feelings because of this feeling, Ye Yan, will you feel regretful?"
