My Ex-Wife Disappeared for Years and Had My Babies-Chapter 97 - 83 The Drunkard_2

Chapter 97: Chapter 83 The Drunkard_2

After changing her shoes, Su Nian started to walk inside, but stopped as soon as she stepped forward, her gaze resting on the man who shouldn’t be here at this moment.

Tang Shaosheng stood in place, watching her return unharmed before him, his heart’s worry dissipated. His tone was as harsh as ever when he asked her, “Where have you been?”

Song Ziyuan averted her gaze and continued to walk inside, picked up a cup and walked to the water cooler to pour herself some water to drink.

“Are you deaf?”

Song Ziyuan put down her cup and looked back at him. Should she be surprised that he suddenly cared about where she had been?

Their eyes met, and after a moment of silence, she lifted her hands and gestured: [I was a bit tired and went to rest.]

...

Tang Shaosheng, dissatisfied with her perfunctory response, grabbed her arm: “Song Ziyuan, have I been too lenient with you lately?”

She dared to ignore him!

When she used to speak, her tone might have been gentle, but every word could infuriate him to death. Now that she couldn’t speak, it was even more infuriating!

Looking at her unchanged gentle smile, he could imagine that if it were in the past, she would definitely have responded with: “Are you going to hit me again?”

Now, she just withdrew her hand and gestured casually: [I went out with friends.]

Between them, it seems that except for the marriage certificate, they no longer had any ties. He didn’t love her, and she didn’t care about him either.

After gesturing, she headed to the bedroom. Tang Shaosheng followed her step by step.

She picked up a robe, seemingly wanting to shower. Seeing that Tang Shaosheng did not intend to leave, she said: [It’s late. You should go rest.]

“My text messages, why didn’t you reply?”

His sudden question stunned Song Ziyuan. She remembered that he had sent her a text message earlier in the evening, which she had forgotten upon returning. So, she said: [I didn’t notice. I didn’t see it. Is something wrong?]

Is something wrong? Yes, why did he come to find her?

He just wanted to see her. After leaving work, he drove over. When he saw that she wasn’t home, he sent her a message. When she didn’t reply, he started to worry and had waited until now.

In her eyes always lurked an air of indifference, neither joy nor anger, always smiling in front of others. One couldn’t imagine the painful experiences she could be hiding.

When she had first married him, she was so timid that she would get scared by his slightly raised voice. Back then, she was obedient, and would wait for him at home after school. Since the beginning of their marriage, she was alone but never complained, living quite comfortably on her own.

He was absent from her mind when he was not there, but she treated him like a husband when he came home. Perhaps, the her from back then had hoped to maintain the marriage well.

It was his behavior that had led to her repeated disappointments, destroying her musical dreams and her expectations for their marriage.

That’s what turned the once docile and reserved Song Ziyuan into a hedgehog that could prick others now.

Seeing that he didn’t respond for a long time, Song Ziyuan silently turned and walked toward the bathroom.

Before she could close the door, he followed her in. Relying on brute strength, he [controlled] her, clothes falling to the ground, soaked by the running water…

Under the cold lotus shower, their body heat mingled with the water…

He was never gentle with women, and he had always been the same toward her.

She had once filed for divorce from him on the grounds of [domestic violence], but somehow, he had found a way to make it so that the court wouldn’t accept it.

Enduring over and over again had left her numb to the pain, thankful that she had become mute, preventing any sounds of [humiliation] from escaping her lips…

It was the same night, deep and charming, yet the scene beneath the night sky seemed far less beautiful…

Withstanding the stench clinging to him, Shen Hanxiu carried Su Nian upstairs, not so gently dropping her by the bathroom door. Her head bumped against the door as she frowned and opened her eyes, looking dazedly at Shen Hanxiu.

Shen Hanxiu, for the moment, ignored her and took off the disgustingly dirty shirt, tossing it directly into a garbage bag which he then tied up and threw outside the door.

Entering the bathroom, he filled the tub with hot water, turned around to pick up Su Nian only to find her looking at him hazily. Her deep gaze made Shen Hanxiu pause, and before he could feel pleased, she doused him with a basin of cold water, asking in a daze: “…Who are you?”

That basin of water chilled Shen Hanxiu from head to toe!

His face, which had just relaxed a bit, grew grim again as he picked her up by the collar and tossed her right into the bathtub.

She was drunk but not unconscious. While he tried to bathe her, she wouldn’t stay still, and Shen Hanxiu dared not be too [rough], fearing she would vomit into the bathtub and then he might just flush her down the toilet!

Looking at her [naked] [body], Shen Hanxiu’s Adam’s apple bobbed. Fearing his impulse would screw things up, he hurriedly took her out of the bath and wrapped her in a towel.

After tossing her onto the bed, she immediately turned over, her pale legs draped across the covers, teasing glimpses of what should not be seen.

Shen Hanxiu was furious, really wanting to give in to his [desires] without restraint. In the end, reason prevailed. He pulled the covers over her and hurried back to the bathroom for a long cold shower to cool off.

By the time he came out, it was already two in the morning. Her face was flushed, but she was peacefully asleep.

He thought he would never see her [naive] [charm] again. It turned out that all her maturity and sensibility was just a facade, discarded once she drank and her true nature came out.

“Old Shen…”

The intense gaze of Shen Hanxiu was interrupted by her blurry call, leaving him stunned for a moment before he responded hoarsely, “Hmm?”

So, she still called his name when her consciousness was unclear. Though it wasn’t the way he liked to be addressed, it softened his heart on the spot.

After murmuring this, she said nothing more and stopped smacking her lips.

Shen Hanxiu coldly adjusted the blanket for her, set the air conditioner to the right temperature, then left quietly by the door.

He wanted to sleep holding her, but he feared that his insistent closeness would make her reject him and drive her further away. The time was not right yet…
