Mr. Shen, your love-struck wife doesn't want you anymore!

Jiang Yu was taken back to the hotel by Shen Chengyan.

She suggested that Guo Yaoyao come to the hospital, but he said it wasn't necessary and he could take her home. If she felt embarrassed, she could transfer the fare to him.

But when she was woken up, the car wasn't parked at the entrance of the residential area, but at the entrance of the hotel.

Jiang Yu asked him what he meant.

He stood outside the car, much taller than it: "Will you be able to sleep well when you get back?"

Jiang Yu thought of the commotion her uncle had caused at home during the day, hesitated for a few seconds, and then got out of the car.

He took her back to her room, let her lie down and rest, and left without saying a word.

Jiang Yu thought he was going to book another room, but not long after, he came back carrying a bag containing sanitary napkins.

Jiang Yu glanced at him several times, but her expression turned rather unhappy.

She got out of bed, took the bag, and went to the bathroom.

Shen Chengyan grabbed her arm, frowning, "What's with that expression?"

Jiang Yu said impatiently, "Let go! You're about to have a massive hemorrhage."

Shen Chengyan: "..."

Jiang Yu came out of the bathroom and saw Shen Chengyan leaning against the corner desk, sending messages on his phone.

He looked up at her, but Jiang Yu ignored him and went back to bed.

I felt sleepy in the hospital, but after all this commotion back home, I'm not sleepy anymore.

She stared at the ceiling for a long time, realizing she couldn't be a silent jerk like him, so she vented her frustration: "Why are you always like this?"

Shen Chengyan looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Jiang Yu: "Why didn't you tell me you were going out to buy sanitary napkins?"

Shen Chengyan laughed speechlessly: "Is that why you're all smiles?"

"Is that not allowed?"

"Did I do something wrong by going to buy you something?"

"There's nothing wrong with buying things, the problem is that you didn't say anything. You didn't say anything when you gave me sanitary napkins, you didn't say anything when you installed an elevator for my aunt, and you didn't say anything when that old car had sentimental value for you."

"I have no idea how many things you've been hiding from me."

"You're always like this, never saying anything, always hiding everything from me, treating me like a fool."

Shen Chengyan clearly disagreed with her last sentence: "You're smarter than a monkey, do you think I'd take advantage of you?"

Jiang Yu became even more irritated: "Just like now, I've been so blunt, and you still don't say anything."

"Since you're unwilling to say anything, what are you doing in my hometown? Trying to win me back? I don't need that kind of attitude from you."

Shen Chengyan seemed a little irritated as well, tugging at his collar. "I don't think it's important. They're just small things, there's no need to make a big fuss about it."

"Whether it's necessary or not isn't for you to decide," Jiang Yu said angrily. "If you don't say anything, how am I supposed to know what you're really thinking? How am I supposed to know what you've done for me!"

Her upbringing made her heart cold and hard.

It takes her a long time for her closed heart to open up and accept another complete stranger.

Throughout her four years of university, she never truly opened up to any of her roommates.

I haven't even kept in touch with them since graduation.

She spent five years with him day and night, and he took good care of her during her pregnancy. Both of them were first-time parents, so they learned and explored together. She saw his dedication, and it was only during those two years that her heart was gradually opened up to him.

She told him everything she needed without reservation.

But his heart was deeper than the sea.

Jiang Yu felt that it was only a matter of time before they got to this point.

Even without Hu Youyue and Tang Yun.

Before they got married, they already had many unresolved issues.

For them, divorce might be the best option.

Jiang Yu didn't want to communicate with him anymore, and didn't want to keep guessing.

So be it.

She closed her eyes, trying to sleep, but just couldn't fall asleep.

Shen Chengyan also heard the noise: "Are you hungry?"

Jiang Yu's stomach was indeed growling.

She closed her eyes and hummed in agreement.

The man said in a low voice, "I'll have the hotel send some food over."

"I don't want to eat the hotel food."

"What would you like to eat?"

"I want to eat the tofu pudding and hot steamed buns from that breakfast shop near my school. I haven't had them in years."

Shen Chengyan: "..."

Jiang Yu's stomach growled louder and louder as she talked, and her mouth was practically watering, but she didn't want to beg him, so she sighed and said, "I don't know if I'll ever have the chance to eat this again in my lifetime."

Shen Chengyan knew she was hinting at him.

She behaved the same way she always did when she wanted gifts.

Even though they really want it, they just won't openly ask for it.

He remained silent for a long time before finally saying "Wait," grabbing his phone, and heading out.

Jiang Yu hadn't expected him to actually go.

I felt a mix of emotions.

She might feel better if he ignored her coldly.

She was incredibly bored while waiting, and she didn't have a phone to play with.

I couldn't fall asleep, so I read the words on the sanitary napkin packaging several times.

While watching, I suddenly lost focus for a moment.

wrong.

That's very wrong.

When Shen Chengyan returned, he was carrying two breakfasts.

The steamed buns had gone cold, but the hotel had a microwave, so heating them up wouldn't have made much difference compared to freshly made ones.

Jiang Yu silently ate the breakfast he had brought back: "Was the line long?"

"many."

Are there many students?

"Residents from the neighborhood also live there."

Jiang Yu nodded: "Their food is really delicious, and their business is booming."

But after a few bites, she put down her chopsticks. "Do you think it's too salty?"

Shen Chengyan didn't like the salty tofu pudding from the North, and he also found the steamed buns a bit greasy, but he didn't dare to tell the truth and could only vaguely reply, "It's alright."

Jiang Yu said, "I suddenly have a sweet craving again. Go buy me some."

Shen Chengyan was speechless for a few seconds: "Do you really think I'm a delivery guy?"

"I'm a patient now, are you going to buy it or not?"

"..."

"There's an old-fashioned pastry shop near my house. I really, really want to eat their chestnut cakes. I've been eating them since I was a kid. Go and buy some."

Shen Chengyan: "Don't tell me that after I buy it, you'll say it's too sweet and you want something spicy."

Jiang Yu snorted: "That's just how I am, buy it or don't, it's up to you."

Shen Chengyan gritted his teeth: "You'd better buy it and eat it all."

An hour later.

When Shen Chengyan returned, he not only bought chestnut cakes, but also some other snacks.

Jiang Yu sat up, took the bag, tasted a bite of each item, then threw the bag aside and said expressionlessly, "I'm not eating."

Shen Chengyan frowned: "If you're not feeling well, go to sleep. Don't bother me."

Jiang Yu ignored his words and sat cross-legged: "I want to talk to you."

"What are you talking about?"

"How did you find out?"

Jiang Yu stared straight at him: "I didn't tell you the address, and you've never been to my school or the pastry shop near my house. How did you manage to find the exact shop I wanted to go to?"
