## Chapter 40 How Could She Say It?

Seeing him finally deep in thought, Lin Yangyang lay directly on the mat, then looked at the bright starry sky.

“I don’t know why Fang Shutong was secretly observing me and He Chongran, but she slandered our relationship without any evidence, to be honest, I’m very unhappy.”

“Yangyang.” Lu Shiyuan paused, “Shutong might just be out of good intentions, don’t blame her. She’s worried that you’ll do something that would betray me…”

“Shut up.” Lin Yangyang lay on her side on the mat, propping her head with one hand, “I haven’t settled the score with you yet!”

“…” Shouldn’t he be the one settling the score with her?

“In the matter of whether I have an affair with He Chongran, you actually chose to believe Fang Shutong, and you weren’t willing to believe me. I’ve said it many times, I’m completely done with He Chongran. Whether he’s now the manager of Wan’s company or a technician in the technical department, it has nothing to do with me anymore.”

As she spoke, Lin Yangyang suddenly sat up, facing him, her pretty little face full of seriousness, accusingly:

“But you, you never seem to have believed me! I’ve said it many times, I’m innocent with He Chongran, and I won’t kill myself for him anymore, I only have you and the two children in my heart now. Why don’t you believe me?”

Lu Shiyuan remained silent.

He did seem to have not given Lin Yangyang enough trust in this matter.

But…

Seeing Lu Shiyuan not speaking, Lin Yangyang pouted and continued, “Fang Shutong was standing far away, she didn’t hear what we were saying at all, and she was so silly that she couldn’t tell the difference between a sneer and a genuine smile. But she didn’t figure out what was going on between me and He Chongran, and she rushed over to tell you that I met He Chongran… didn’t you ever think about why she would do that?”

Lu Shiyuan frowned.

Actually, she made a good point.

If Fang Shutong had really misunderstood Lin Yangyang’s relationship with He Chongran, why didn’t she go over and expose it on the spot?

There was no concrete evidence to prove that they were having an affair, why did she tell him so much.

From now on, Lu Shiyuan finally had a few more reservations about Fang Shutong.

“Now, it’s my turn to suspect what kind of relationship you have with Fang Shutong.”

As soon as he said that, Lu Shiyuan’s heart skipped a beat.

He stared at her with wide eyes, “You, what are you talking nonsense about?”

“She’s clearly deliberately trying to stir up trouble between you and me, and you didn’t even have a single doubt after hearing it… could it be that you really want to team up with Fang Shutong to make me leave, so you can clear the way for her?”

“Yangyang, don’t talk nonsense!” Lu Shiyuan’s tone was a little angry.

How could he not be angry? He was clearly suspecting her relationship with He Chongran, and now it was his turn to be suspected.

“I’m innocent with Shutong! There’s absolutely no improper relationship between us!”

“Okay.” Seeing him raise his hand and swear solemnly, Lin Yangyang also smiled, “From now on, I believe you’re innocent with Fang Shutong. So, you must also believe that I’m innocent with He Chongran!”

“…” This little girl was getting smarter and smarter, she had said all that just for this.

“So, do you admit it or not? Are you still suspicious of my relationship with He Chongran?”

Hearing the grievance and sob in her voice, Lu Shiyuan’s chest trembled, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

“I believe you.”

Lin Yangyang immediately looked like a child who had eaten candy, smiling and nodding repeatedly, “Yeah! You said it, you’ll believe me.”

So, the matter of Fang Shutong and He Chongran was considered over.

Lu Shiyuan thought for a moment, thinking that this was all Lin Yangyang’s plan, he couldn’t help but laugh.

This woman, Lin Yangyang, was much more interesting than before, at least the previous Lin Yangyang, never even tried to have a heart-to-heart talk with him like this.

Even when his brothers came over to have a few drinks with him in the yard, she would be unhappy.

So Lin Yangyang’s actions today were truly surprising.

“Okay, I won’t say anything about Fang Shutong and He Chongran anymore. But I still have one thing I need to make clear to you!”

Seeing her suddenly become serious again, Lu Shiyuan’s heart skipped a beat, was she going to cause another ruckus?

“You say…”

“You should be the one making a promise to me! You say, if next time, you break your promise, what will be the punishment!”

This made Lu Shiyuan look puzzled, “What promise?”

“You…” Lin Yangyang was a little flustered and angry, she took a deep breath, stared at him with a flushed face, and after about a minute, she frowned and said, “You promised! Once a week! But now? You don’t seem to care about your promise at all! Also… you, you…”

In the end, Lin Yangyang stammered for a while, but still couldn’t say a complete sentence.

Lu Shiyuan frowned slightly, “Yesterday, I thought you were going to elope…”

Before he could finish, Lin Yangyang directly grabbed a peanut and threw it at his face.

“Who am I eloping with? You? You still don’t believe that I want to live a good life with you!”

Seeing that she was really angry, Lu Shiyuan panicked.

Seeing her get up and about to leave, Lu Shiyuan quickly leaned over and grabbed her hand.

Lin Yangyang stood up, squinting at him with cold eyes.

Lu Shiyuan finally surrendered.

“I’m sorry, it was my fault.”

Lin Yangyang snorted softly, “Then tell me, what did you do wrong?”

It was like a child interrogating the result.

“I will definitely keep my promise in the future, only once a week! Besides that, I won’t touch you again!”

This sounded a little off-putting.

Lin Yangyang pursed her lips, cleared her throat, and said, “Yes, it’s your own promise.”

Lu Shiyuan held his breath in frustration.

This woman was really full of tricks, they were already husband and wife, why could it only be once a week!

Couldn’t it be seven times a week?

“Are you done? If you’re done, go to sleep.”

Lu Shiyuan suddenly realized that Lin Yangyang had deliberately set this up so he would apologize to her.

So, he suddenly didn’t want to continue drinking.

This wasn’t a heart-to-heart talk, it was a trap.

He was simple-minded, but he couldn’t be blind to it!

Lin Yangyang was truly a seductive little vixen, she really had him wrapped around her little finger.

However, just as he stood up and was about to leave, Lin Yangyang reached out and grabbed his wrist again.

His body temperature was very high, even holding his wrist, Lin Yangyang was startled by his temperature.

“There’s, there’s one more thing, I haven’t finished yet.”

Seeing her stammering, Lu Shiyuan, although very dissatisfied with her design, still patiently stood there watching her, “If you have anything else to say, just say it.”

But Lin Yangyang still couldn’t say it, how could she say those words?
