Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Don’t Want It Anymore?

Shen Heyu subconsciously thought that she couldn’t let him see Lu Yi.

Otherwise, even if she threw herself into the Yellow River, she couldn’t clear her name. Even ten mouths wouldn’t be able to explain it clearly.

Even though there was nothing between her and Lu Yi, Pei Yansi had always been prone to jealousy and overthinking.

She dared not be sure what he might do if he saw her with someone else.

Numerous past experiences of his outbursts had already left her apprehensive.

Thinking this, she immediately stood up from her chair and said to Lu Yi, “Why don’t you go first, and I’ll contact you later.”

Lu Yi could clearly see the panic that she could not hide on her face the moment Pei Yansi appeared.

The fear of that man was even more apparent in her eyes.

He couldn’t even imagine what Pei Yansi must have done to her to cause such fear.

Lu Yi also stood up from his chair. He didn’t want to trouble Shen Heyu, saying, “I’ll go upstairs, and if you need anything, just call me.”

Shen Heyu nodded. As long as Pei Yansi didn’t see him, it didn’t matter where he went.

It was unnecessary for them to be so fearful; there was nothing shameful between her and Lu Yi, but the person they were dealing with was Pei Yansi.

A madman who would get jealous even if she was with another woman.

Shen Heyu didn’t dare to gamble.

Lu Yi had already turned and left, going upstairs.

The second floor had other seats and was not soundproof. He could hear the conversation between Shen Heyu and Pei Yansi downstairs anytime.

If anything seemed off, he could come down immediately to help her.

Just as Lu Yi had gone up, Pei Yansi pushed the door open and immediately saw Shen Heyu in the corner, but there was no second person beside her.

Even the dining table opposite her had no drinks placed on it.

It looked very much like she had come alone.

If he didn’t know her so well, Pei Yansi might have almost thought that she was indeed alone.

With an unfathomable smile on his face, Pei Yansi slowly walked to her side, not speaking immediately, but sitting across from her.

Exactly where Lu Yi had just sat.

From the chair, he could still feel the warmth of another person.

Clearly, someone else had been here just before.

And had left only minutes ago.

Pei Yansi looked up at Shen Heyu, seeing her pale face, her body slightly trembling, and her eyes looking at him both defensively and fearfully.

He really didn’t understand.

If she was scared, why did she run away? Why couldn’t she just stay obediently by his side?

“Why aren’t you speaking?” Pei Yansi looked at her with a quasi-smile and spoke first.

Seeing his seemingly calm demeanor, Shen Heyu’s fear multiplied.

She knew Pei Yansi all too well.

Every time he was like this, it was when he was about to go berserk; the angrier he got, the calmer he pretended to be.

It was the same last time in Jiang City.

He tortured her all night without showing any overt signs.

It took a long time for Shen Heyu to snap out of it, sit back down, and find her voice again, “Why are you here?”

She knew very well this was a rhetorical question.

She was well aware that his timely appearance meant he had already had someone surveillance her in secret, perhaps even last night’s phone call was within his control.

Shen Heyu felt terrified just thinking about it.

This man’s desire for control was simply too strong.

His possessiveness had once made her feel suffocated. Clearly, he had no love for her; all his actions were merely to keep her within his grasp.

He was born with a liking for control.

“You don’t want to see me here, do you?” Pei Yansi said as he adjusted his suit cuffs, head lowered, not even looking at her.

Even so, he could guess her expression, surely one of cowering and fear, a pale face, too scared to speak.

Pei Yansi stopped adjusting his cuffs and turned to look at Shen Heyu. Indeed, just as he thought, she was biting her lip, her face pale, without a word.

He sneered, his intense gaze fixed on her as if to uncover all her secrets.

After a long time, he finally asked, “Who was with you before I came here?”

It was supposed to be a question, but when Pei Yansi asked it, his tone was calm and matter-of-fact, leaving one unable to guess whether he was truly angry or just speaking casually.

Shen Heyu didn’t respond.

The expression on Pei Yansi’s face immediately darkened, turning visibly darker.

“It was Lu Yi, wasn’t it?”

Shen Heyu felt utterly exposed under his piercing gaze. She knew that if he could find this place, he must already know the truth.

If she lied and he exposed it, the outcome would certainly not be good.

After much thought and struggle, she said, “What exactly do you want?”

Instead of answering his question, she posed one to him.

Pei Yansi laughed, his eyes as cold as frost, “Shen Heyu, are you asking me?”

She remained silent.

But her expression betrayed her inner thoughts.

Without waiting for her to speak, Pei Yansi continued, “Tell me now where he is, and I might consider letting you off today.”

His idea of letting her off wasn’t about giving Shen Heyu freedom but sparing her from punishment.

Shen Heyu shook her head, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about. It’s always been just me here.”

Pei Yansi kept his gaze fixed on her.

Unblinkingly.

It’s remarkable, even at this point, she was still defending Lu Yi.

To her, was that man really so important? Important enough that she would leave her daughter to meet him, wanting to escape?

He suddenly changed the subject, asking her, “Even if you don’t want me, do you not want your daughter either?”

Mentioning her daughter was a sore spot for Shen Heyu.

She frowned, looking straight into Pei Yansi’s eyes and said, “If it wasn’t for your relentless pursuit, why would I even think of leaving her.”

“Come back with me now,” Pei Yansi changed the subject again.

Currently, they were in a café, surrounded by mostly students; he didn’t want to make a scene with Shen Heyu in such a setting.

Because of the circumstance, he was willing to temporarily let go of Lu Yi and not pursue where she was hiding.

But Shen Heyu was unappreciative.

She coldly refused, “You knew I wanted to leave, so why won’t you let me go? Catching me today, what can you do? I will still find another chance to flee.”

Hearing Shen Heyu’s words, Pei Yansi was nearly exploding with rage.
