The Actor’s Ex-wife

Chapter 19

In fact, the Shen family's villa is very large, so Jian You doesn't have to worry about sleeping at all. But Shen Xiao still heard Jian You's uncontrollable "panic" from these two words.

This kind of panic has been around for a long time, and Shen Xiao has become accustomed to it. But every time he stayed at home, Jian You would give up their bedroom, but this time Shen Xiao felt a little embarrassed. He stopped and turned to look at Jian You, who was standing in the corner not far away with a depressed look on his face. You.

“I will sleep in the guest room today, you don’t have to move anywhere.”

When Shen Xiao said this, he was still imagining whether Jian You would show a trace of gratitude or joy. After all, he was the one who didn't care about her feelings in the past. Shen Xiao stared at Jian You's face for two seconds and saw that her face was less depressed, but her expression was still indifferent.

Hum, boom... Another thunder came from my ears, and the dazzling lightning illuminated the entire villa.

Jian You was wearing ankle-length pajamas and standing alone in the large living room. The light and shadow of lightning stretched her figure to length. She was pale and thin, standing alone and helpless.

 Perhaps she was alone in experiencing countless stormy nights in the past seven years.

Shen Xiao's eyes softened when he looked at her, and there was even a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth: "Jian You, go upstairs to sleep, don't be afraid."

Jian You was actually a little happy at this time, but how could she let Shen Xiao see through it? Although she has never been to the guest room, there is no doubt that how can the guest room be as comfortable as the master bedroom? At times like this, she couldn't think of any special coping skills. It seemed like she could only pretend to be stupid.

Jian You glanced out the window, nodded blankly, and said dullly: "Oh, it's thundering, it's raining, it's time to put away the clothes..."

Shen Xiao frowned slightly after hearing this. He was already planning to ask Dr. Zhao to come over early tomorrow to check Jian You's body again. It seemed that she was still very ill!

Jian You watched Shen Xiao return to the guest room with a livid face. She carefully went upstairs and entered the room. She buried herself in the bed and couldn't help laughing.

I don’t know if the soundproofing facilities here are good or not, and Jian You didn’t dare to be too presumptuous. After holding it in for a while, she finally calmed down.

　　It is stormy outside, but the room is warm and comfortable.

Jian You casually tied her hair into a ball and went to the bathroom to wash up. A super luxurious European-style semi-circular bathtub is embedded in the middle. The roof of the bathroom actually has a skylight. When the weather is good, you can see the sky full of stars from here.

Jian You relaxed completely while soaking in the bathtub. She picked up her phone and browsed Weibo.

 This is a world created by the author of the original book, so although the characters are different, other social resources are the same as where Jian You originally lived. He Yuxuan's Weibo post has been forwarded by tens of thousands, and Jian You's fans have also surged to more than 50,000. For Jian You, who is familiar with the hardships of the Internet celebrity industry, this is like being on a helicopter to become famous. I remember that back then, she diligently updated Weibo every day for more than half a year before she had the opportunity to be forwarded by a big V. From then on, her number of fans increased steadily.

 But now...it only took half a year to eat a meal of noodles! It’s simply faster than buying fans from a certain treasure.

While Jian You was feeling happy watching the increasing number of fans, Shen Xiao looked depressed.

There were no clothes of his in the guest room, and there was nothing in the neatly arranged closet except sheets and quilts. There are no toiletries in the bathroom.

 Staying here tonight...that's really not a good idea!

Shen Xiao opened the door and saw that the light in the living room downstairs had been turned off. Mrs. Zhou went back to the annex in the back row to rest. It would not be good to disturb the other party so late. Shen Xiao turned his head and his eyes fell on the door at the end of the corridor.

The warm orange light shines from the crack in the door, and you turn the cold bronze door handle. What will it look like inside?

Shen Xiao came to Jian You's door unknowingly. They had agreed to have a hidden marriage and neither party could do anything illegal without the consent of either party. Shen Xiao has always believed this, and he never thought that he could have any thoughts about Jian You, who he grew up with and treated as his sister.

The steps stopped, and just when Shen Xiao was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, the light in the crack of the door suddenly went out, and the entire corridor fell into darkness.

Shen Xiao's raised hand froze in mid-air.

 Across the wall, Jian You was already lying on the big bed filled with the fragrance of lavender, and fell asleep contentedly.

 “Brother Xiao, where are you?”

At this time, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. Shen Xiao pressed the answer button and heard Xiao Ma's voice on the other side.

“At home, it rained too much, so I didn’t go back to the city.”

“It rained for a while, but it has stopped now.”

"Has it stopped?" Shen Xiao looked around blankly, as if he hadn't heard the sound of thunder for a while, but it was already late at night, so why did he go back?
