Chapter 90 In Your Eyes, Am I a Joke?
It was unclear what Xu Sulin was planning. She remained silent for a while, her gaze fixed on the jewelry on her wrist, her eyes filled with an indescribable gentleness.
Mu Xiaoyu looked at the bracelet on Xu Sulin's wrist. She admitted that the bracelet was indeed very beautiful, and it was obviously quite valuable. However, given Xu Sulin's background and status, it wasn't unusual for her to wear such a bracelet.
What's so special about this bracelet that makes Xu Sulin like it so much, to the point that someone as spoiled and willful as her can show such a gentle expression...
Mu Xiaoyu's intuition told her that what Xu Sulin was about to say was very likely related to the bracelet, and it definitely wouldn't be anything good for her.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu's gaze towards Xu Sulin became even more wary.
Do you think this bracelet of mine looks good?
After a long while, Xu Sulin slowly raised her head. As she spoke, she waved the bracelet on her wrist at Mu Xiaoyu, her face full of pride.
Mu Xiaoyu remained silent, her brows still furrowed as she looked at Xu Sulin. Xu Sulin, seemingly unconcerned about Mu Xiaoyu's response, continued after only a few seconds, "After all, it was a gift from Brother Chen Xu, how could it possibly be pretty?"
As she spoke, Xu Sulin looked at Mu Xiaoyu and said with a smile, "You and Brother Shen Xu have been married for several years now, right? Besides wedding rings, has Brother Shen Xu ever given you anything else? I have more than just this bracelet on my wrist."
Mu Xiaoyu didn't speak, her calm gaze sweeping indifferently over the bracelet on Xu Sulin's wrist, her usually bright eyes now filled with unfathomable emotions.
People who see Mu Xiaoyu for the first time might think she is aloof or cold, or even a bit unapproachable. But because she doesn't talk much, she might seem like someone who is easy to bully.
When Xu Sulin of the Li family first met Mu Xiaoyu, although he was surprised by Mu Xiaoyu's exquisite features, he did not take her seriously because of her taciturn nature, and never regarded Mu Xiaoyu as an opponent.
But now, when Mu Xiaoyu looked at her like that, she felt a chill run down her spine.
Xu Sulin's throat tightened, and he was about to speak, but before he could utter a word, Mu Xiaoyu spoke.
"So what?"
“I don’t care whether what Miss Xu just said is true or false. Even if Li Chenxu gives you the entire Li Corporation, so what? At least legally, I am now Li Chenxu’s wife, and he is my husband. I am the one who owns him, not you. If Miss Xu is so idle all day long, she should think of a way to get Li Chenxu to divorce me instead of coming here to show off to me.”
Mu Xiaoyu spoke very calmly, and the cold aura emanating from her left Xu Sulin stunned.
Before she came, she had already imagined all sorts of reactions Mu Xiaoyu would have to what she had just said, but she never expected Mu Xiaoyu to be so calm.
If Mu Xiaoyu really liked Li Chenxu, how could she have remained unmoved after hearing those words?
Xu Sulin couldn't help but bite her lip, and after a long while, she said coldly, "You don't like Brother Shen Xu, do you!"
"Whether I like Li Chenxu or not has nothing to do with you. Even if I don't like him, you still can't have him..."
Mu Xiaoyu clearly wanted to say something more, but before she could speak, her eyes, which had been calm just moments before, instantly filled with panic when she saw the person standing at the door.
Xu Sulin remained oblivious. Upon hearing this, she stood up abruptly, angrily pointing at Mu Xiaoyu and saying, "Mu Xiaoyu, let me tell you! Don't be so smug for too long. Don't think that just because Brother Chen Xu likes you now, you can do whatever you want. No matter how much he likes you, a woman as hard-hearted as a stone, heartless and ungrateful as you, one day, his affection for you will completely disappear! Just you wait!"
After saying this, Xu Sulin turned to leave. However, when she saw Li Chenxu standing at the door, Xu Sulin froze. But it was only for a few seconds. The next moment, she turned to look at Mu Xiaoyu, then looked at the expressionless Li Chenxu, and said with a smile, "Brother Chenxu, I have something to do, so I won't disturb you and your wife. Let's have dinner together when we have time."
After saying this, Xu Sulin's smile deepened, and she left the ward. In an instant, only Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu remained in the large ward.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't know when Li Chenxu arrived, nor how much of what she had just said, but one thing was certain: Li Chenxu had heard her last few words.
Neither of them spoke. Li Chenxu merely glanced at Mu Xiaoyu before walking in. He sat down in the seat Xu Sulin had just occupied, gazing silently at Mu Xiaoyu, his deep eyes devoid of any emotion.
If Li Chenxu were angry, or even if he were like before, Mu Xiaoyu would feel much more at ease.
But the calmer he was now, the more uncertain Mu Xiaoyu felt.
More importantly, Mu Xiaoyu didn't think there was anything wrong with what she just said. She hadn't actually said anything that confirmed she didn't like Li Chenxu, and since Xiuluo had provoked her first, her words were understandable.
Furthermore... she's just an ordinary woman, how could she not be angry about what Xu Sulin just said?
Although Mu Xiaoyu was not greedy for wealth and knew that Li Chenxu had given her enough wealth and fame, and had given her more than enough, there was no need to worry about whether he had given her these things separately.
But knowing it in her heart is one thing, but after hearing what Xu Sulin said, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but wonder, didn't Li Chenxu say he didn't like Xu Sulin? Why did he still buy those things for her?
So Mu Xiaoyu didn't say anything; she was waiting, waiting for Li Chenxu to give her an explanation.
Time ticked by, and the atmosphere in the ward was terribly heavy. For so long, the two of them had been so sweet and loving; it seemed like it had been ages since they'd felt this way.
After what seemed like an eternity, just when Mu Xiaoyu thought Li Chenxu wouldn't speak, he finally did: "I've only just realized that all this time, I've been deluding myself. Mu Xiaoyu, in your eyes, have I always been a joke?"
