Shen Yi looked at Ye Wanwan without speaking, but Ye Wanwan, seeing that expression on Shen Yi’s face, understood what he meant.
She had been rather indifferent to Shen Yi lately; perhaps Shen Yi simply didn’t find the opportunity to talk to her about it.
But Ye Wanwan refused to take the blame. She withdrew her hand from Shen Yi’s grasp, "And that’s because you lied to me!"
Shen Yi frowned, baffled, "I lied to you?"
When had he ever lied to Ye Wanwan?
"About last time you came back. You were obviously on a business trip, but you lied to me, saying you came back specifically for our wedding anniversary!" Ye Wanwan accused.
Shen Yi was stunned for a moment before he recalled the incident, but...
Ye Wanwan continued, "Thinking of you working overtime, flying back and forth for thirty hours, just to see me, and there I was, forgetting our wedding anniversary and throwing a pool party at home, not acting the slightest bit like a wife should!"
Waking up that day and realizing Shen Yi had already left, Ye Wanwan truly felt she might have indulged herself too much.
It seemed she had neglected Shen Yi a little too much!
Then, in her immense self-reproach, she learned Shen Yi was merely on a business trip to H City, with a layover in Beijing, and he had a few hours of free time, so he thought of checking in on her.
Because Shen Yi lied to her, saying he came back specifically for their wedding anniversary, Ye Wanwan overlooked the affection that made Shen Yi want to see her during that brief interval.
Seeing Shen Yi silent, Ye Wanwan, with a look that said she had seen through everything, disdainfully said, "You think I don’t know you just wanted to trick me into going to D Country with you?"
"Cough cough!" Shen Yi coughed twice to mask his embarrassment.
He indeed had that intention that day, and later didn’t explain to Ye Wanwan; in fact, he still felt that way, but since Ye Wanwan didn’t come, and he was busy with work, he soon forgot about it.
He never expected that this would be the reason for Ye Wanwan’s anger.
"See? I’ve exposed your little schemes!" Ye Wanwan, seeing Shen Yi’s guilty demeanor, actually felt a bit triumphant.
Shen Yi remained silent, unsure of what to do.
But Ye Wanwan pushed her advantage, pouting and saying, "So there’s a reason I’ve been ignoring you! Who made you deceive my feelings!"
In the end, Shen Yi could only say, very helplessly, "So you’ve been ignoring me for so long, does that make us even now?"
"How could that make us even!" Ye Wanwan, stubbornly contrary, felt she couldn’t agree; agreeing would mean she was at a loss!
Shen Yi fell silent again, but suddenly, his gaze upon Ye Wanwan shifted slightly.
"What, what are you doing?" Ye Wanwan, seeing the look in Shen Yi’s eyes, inexplicably felt danger.
Shen Yi loomed over and reached out to Ye Wanwan. Instinctively, she tried to dodge backward, but Shen Yi’s long hand still circled around to the back of her head, steadying it.
"Wanwan, I just heard you at the airport calling someone else ’husband,’" Shen Yi said with a heavy voice.
At the airport, when he heard Wanwan calling a stranger "husband", he genuinely had a terrifying thought.
Even though Assistant Chen told him that Wanwan was only chasing a celebrity, he still didn’t want Wanwan to use that term for another man.
