Chapter 3251 Return to City B 3
She loved him, but she couldn't legally own him. In places where people could see, only Wen Yuan could stand by his side.
Ye Mulin looked at her and whispered after a while: "Shirley, it won't be long."
He knew she cared, but he still needed the help of the Wen family. He knew even better than she did that her father couldn't be saved in prison, and their relationship was over. She wouldn't let herself be with him.
She hummed and smiled at him.
That faint smile made him feel distressed.
Ye Mulin reached out and rubbed her hair: "I'll come back early to accompany you to eat skewers, okay?"
She said "oh", then whispered: "It's better not to, your stomach is not good, it will be very troublesome if the stomach disease attacks."
He smiled: "Then I'll come back and make delicious food for you. Be good."
He always leaned over and kissed her when it was time to go to work: "I have to go, be good at home."
She said "oh" and kissed him back: "Drink less."
"Okay." He said again: "I'm leaving."
She smiled and watched him go back to the room to get his coat and car keys. In the end, she couldn't help but run to the door to see him off and gave him a hug.
After Ye Mulin left, she cleaned the house. After they came back, they didn't hire a part-time worker. She just cleaned the house every day. In the early morning after he went to work, she would clean the house briefly, then go to the supermarket to buy vegetables, and bring back a bouquet of flowers to put at home.
At noon, she would eat something casually by herself, and she would make dinner carefully, regardless of whether he was busy or could come back. However, he could only eat it once a week at most, and he would throw it away in the end.
She did these mechanically, trying to do everything a wife could do.
When she was his wife before, she should have done it but couldn't do it. Now she did it but couldn't be his wife.
Bai Xueli thought while arranging flowers, her face was a little confused.
In the afternoon, she began to prepare ingredients for the evening and cooked a table of dishes. She knew he wouldn't come back. Now he was sitting with Wen Yuan at a family gathering. Maybe they would discuss the wedding date, she thought so in her heart.
She sat on the sofa and waited until nine o'clock, and looked at her mobile phone, but there was no message.
She sat and watched TV again, not hungry, and she was not in the mood to eat alone...
Later, at 11 o'clock, she threw away the food. When she poured it, she watched silently but couldn't help crying.
The crying went from suppressed to loud, and she knew she might be sick.
A disease called loneliness eroded her silently.
She always told herself that she was very happy and that she should understand her. It turned out that it was so painful to like someone and watch him be with someone else and not see the future.
She believed him, but she had long passed the time of innocence. Just like when the Bai family was in its heyday, the Ye family had to stand aside. At that time, she never thought that the Bai family would fall.
The Bai family could fall, but what about Ye Mulin, who was attacked from all sides, how was he walking on thin ice?
She kept waiting until one or two o'clock in the morning, but he still hadn't come back...
She picked up her phone and wanted to call him, but she didn't dare.
Only then did she deeply know that she was really nothing, and even a phone call was shameful.
He called her Bai Xiaosan, which was a relative, but in fact, in a sense, she was indeed an out-and-out Xiaosan.
Bai Xueli lay there, completely awake.
On the other side, the banquet of the Ye and Wen families was not an exaggeration to say that it was a Hongmen Banquet.
