Chapter 397 Butterfly Binding (8)

Why haven't I seen such an expression, why has he never smiled like this in front of me?

Hu Mengdie was stunned, her face turned even paler. Was she really happier when she was with Zhu Zhixue?
She wanted to squat down and bury herself in the ground.

Li Xiuyu pulled her to greet Li Zhuangsheng. She staggered and seemed to fall at any time. At this moment, she was discouraged and could not muster any strength. She just mechanically followed the three people. Her mind was full of the scene of Li Zhuangsheng and Zhu Zhixue kissing just now, and the smile she had never seen before.

Is it a kind of confidence, or should I say calmness, or grace? It doesn't seem like a fake smile that is flattering.

The frustration in her heart was getting stronger and stronger, and it seemed to tear her apart.

The atmosphere during the Chinese New Year is really lively. In the evening, the China World Trade Center is packed with people, as if everyone from all over the world has come out. This is the case every year.

Hu Mengdie was held by Li Xiuyu, and she looked at the woman who was holding Li Zhuangsheng's arm with a distracted look, and her expression was a little dazed.

That person looks so familiar. Is it me?
On the first New Year of their relationship, which was also the first day of the Lunar New Year, Hu Mengdie was rushed down by her parents to have a date with Li Zhuangsheng.

She threw the ring to get the panda doll, but she didn't get it after many attempts. She left with Li Zhuangsheng in frustration. But Li Zhuangsheng left for a while, saying he had something to do.

When she came back, he was holding the panda that she had always wanted.

She asked Li Zhuangsheng in surprise how he got it. Li Zhuangsheng said with an unnatural look on his face that he just passed by and tried to catch it again, and he got it right at once.

What the hell, this idiot must have spent much more than the price of this doll to buy it from the stall owner, right? Hu Mengdie thought.

She didn't point it out, but happily took the doll, smiling and praising it for being amazing.

Seeing him blushing and shy, Hu Mengdie felt that he was even cuter. He was so embarrassed to brag, but there was actually such a pure person.

She held the panda in one hand, walked forward and took Li Zhuangsheng's arm, smiling, she was so happy on the first day of the new year.

That was shortly before their rebirth. They had been married for almost half a year and it was also their second New Year together.

At that time, there was no class reunion. Li Xiuyu was still scheming and asked Li Zhuangsheng to come home for dinner on the first night of the Lunar New Year, but Hu Mengdie just acted like a spoiled child and asked Li Zhuangsheng to stay with her.

On the evening of the first day of the New Year, still in this place, the wind was cold and the sunset was small. The barbecue stall was filled with smoke and fragrance.

Hu Mengdie held Li Zhuangsheng's hand, interlocking their fingers. Li Zhuangsheng bought her a kebab of mutton, and she acted like a spoiled child, saying that eating mutton would make her fat. Li Zhuangsheng immediately expressed his loyalty, saying that being fat would also make her look good, and Hu Mengdie smiled and said, "Are you feeding me?"
The two of them strolled along the street with a smile on their faces, and talked about their plans for the New Year. Li Zhuangsheng said that he would write a single female protagonist in his next book, and he would show it to you when he finished it. Hu Mengdie teased, "You didn't let me read your book before, why did you let me read it this time? Are you going to write me as your heroine in the new book?"

He blushed slightly and said nothing, with a slight smile on his face. She knew the answer.

She knew that the male protagonists of Li Zhuangsheng's previous books had many women, but she didn't care too much. Li Zhuangsheng had long ago vaguely confessed that writing novels was just a way to make a living. She had never read his works before.

However, she was looking forward to Li Zhuangsheng's new work. The work with only her as the heroine. That was the work he really wanted to write.

Hu Mengdie smiled and kissed Li Zhuangsheng, then took his arm and imagined what kind of book it was. It must be a very gentle love letter.

Everything I see before my eyes seems to be a memory.

Suddenly, a puff of pungent smoke entered Hu Mengdie's nose, causing her to sneeze. Only then did she come to her senses. The person holding Li Zhuangsheng's arm was no longer her. It seemed that she would never see the new book that Li Zhuangsheng had mentioned.

Why are you unwilling?
Feelings of hatred grew wildly in my heart.

A few people were eating chicken pot at "Zhuangjiahan" and Li Zhuangsheng casually brought a bottle of coconut juice. Hu Mengdie knew that it was for her. She liked to drink coconut juice, so Li Zhuangsheng would not forget it.

But when she saw Li Zhuangsheng gently pouring orange juice for Zhu Zhixue, she still lowered her eyes.

She looked at the coconut juice again, as if she had forgotten that she had never had to pour her own drinks when she went out with Li Zhuangsheng before.

So, she didn't touch the coconut juice. Why should she pour the drink herself? Isn't this what Li Zhuangsheng should do!

It seemed like a silent protest, although no one paid attention to her protest.

In her heart, she secretly hated Li Zhuangsheng, who had seduced her and then abandoned her, and Zhu Zhixue, the "foxy woman", and she also hated Li Xiuyu.

Is it normal that Li Xiuyu is so generous about Li Zhuangsheng and Zhu Zhixue's relationship? In her opinion, when she was in high school, Li Xiuyu was very kind-hearted for not slapping Zhu Zhixue in public!

And how did Zhu Zhixue and Li Zhuangsheng get together? What shameless means did she use?
Hu Mengdie was so jealous that she was going crazy!
Reluctantly, she pulled Li Zhuangsheng to ask him. She had no purpose at the moment, she was just unwilling and just out of ugly jealousy.

For this reason, she also brought up Lin Yuehua, as if mentioning Lin Yuehua could save something.

But unfortunately, there was a struggle in Li Zhuangsheng's eyes, but he still firmly chose Zhu Zhixue.

Hu Mengdie was stunned. She asked Li Zhuangsheng tremblingly whether he loved Zhu Zhixue, but Li Zhuangsheng did not answer. This time, the irrelevant answer finally gave Hu Mengdie a glimmer of hope to try again.

He doesn't love her, so Zhu Zhixue must have used some shady methods!

But then, before she could think of a countermeasure, Li Zhuangsheng's words made her speechless again.

This time, his expression was so calm, even calmer than last time. His tone was so light as if he was chatting, and he even smiled a little, just like chatting with an ordinary friend.

But it was those few casual chats that made Hu Mengdie realize that she had been replaced.

In fact, before this, no matter what happened, Hu Mengdie had absolute confidence. Li Zhuangsheng could not accept her, but he would not accept other girls either.

Because no girl knows Li Zhuangsheng better than her, and no other girl has the bond between her and Li Zhuangsheng.

She is his wife, this has already happened, and it is irreplaceable.

But this time Li Zhuangsheng told her clearly that Zhu Zhixue was better than her.

She finally realized that she could actually be replaced.

Hu Mengdie didn't love him, but Zhu Zhixue loved him. He was convinced in his heart and said it openly.
