Chapter 24: Chapter 24 Let’s Talk About It

"Her husband despises her for being a yellow-faced woman, he’s got a mistress on the side, and now their household is in an uproar, I don’t even want to talk about it."

"And now that we can lend a hand, won’t it be easier for you?"

Su Xiangyi earnestly went on, she had her own considerations in this matter; after all, their kind of wealthy families always had issues with valuing sons over daughters, which wasn’t without reason.

They were very pleased with Shen Yi’s behavior at the moment, but as for what might happen later, they couldn’t be certain, having a child early was also a form of security for Wanwan.

Moreover, she genuinely felt that Ye Wanwan, being young now, would recover well. With both families able to help take care of the child, it would certainly be easier than if Wanwan had to do it all by herself later on.

Seeing that Ye Wanwan kept her head down and stayed silent, evidently not wanting to discuss this matter, Su Xiangyi, frustrated that her advice wasn’t heeded, poked Ye Wanwan’s forehead.

Ye Wanwan humphed haughtily, ignoring her mother.

In any case, Ye Wanwan brushed off the matter just like that.

Ye Wanwan and Shen Yi stayed until after dinner before they left.

Once in the car, Ye Wanwan couldn’t help but exhale a sigh of relief. She sat in the passenger’s seat, slumped into the seat as if boneless, staring blankly ahead, seemingly lost in thought.

She was clearly numbed by all the talk of having children today.

Shen Yi drove in silence; he was never a man of many words, even less adept at initiating conversation. So he just quietly drove along, not saying a word, but occasionally glancing at Ye Wanwan beside him.

When they got back to the villa, Ye Wanwan, dragging her weary body, headed upstairs, planning to take a shower first, then rest early.

Shen Yi followed her all the way, and when she was about to take a shower, he couldn’t help but speak up, "Wanwan."

"What is it?" Ye Wanwan stopped, turned around, and glanced at Shen Yi.

"Let’s talk," said Shen Yi, a man who disliked beating around the bush, whether in work or at home. He always wanted to address issues at the earliest opportunity.

He had noticed the changes in Ye Wanwan’s behavior recently. If he couldn’t understand it, he preferred to lay everything out in the open.

Sensing the seriousness in Shen Yi’s tone, Ye Wanwan put aside her fatigue and nodded earnestly, "Mhm."

The two returned to their bedroom, which had a small sofa set up. They each took a seat on one side of the sofa, giving the impression of a negotiation in process.

Shen Yi sat down and carefully considered his words before finally asking, "Why do you suddenly want to work?"

"You’ve seemed a bit strange these past few days; it’s like you’re avoiding me. Did something happen?"

Shen Yi thought to himself that whatever it was, as long as Ye Wanwan was willing to talk to him, he would help her.

Ye Wanwan bit her lip, her hands involuntarily clenching around her own arms. Should she tell Shen Yi that she’d been reborn?

She dared not get too close to him for fear of falling into the same obsession as in her past life, wanting to control every single move Shen Yi made, and she was also worried that she might accidentally reveal too much, complicating things further if she had to explain.

Ye Wanwan bit her lip and, after a long hesitation, spoke haltingly, "I’m not avoiding you, I just feel a bit embarrassed."

"You know what I was up to when I went to Xun Lehan’s birthday party," Ye Wanwan said, carefully watching Shen Yi as she spoke.
