Lu Shu rushed to the door of Li Yan’s office to wait for him before she got off work. Not long after she got there, she saw Li Yan and a few colleagues walking out of the office, chatting and laughing.

Lu Shu stared greedily at Li Yan, who was in the middle of the crowd. To be honest, Li Yan’s looks could not be considered outstanding, but he had one special trait. It was a trait that was not particularly eye-catching when placed in a crowd, but made one feel a surge of warmth just by looking at him.

This was the main reason why Lu Shu was attracted to Li Yan, in the first place. After going through her long bouts of viciousness and ice, she would always want to get close to those who gave her some warmth.

Lu Shu stood in the middle of the path. Very quickly, someone discovered her presence, and more and more people noticed her and turned their gazes toward the door.

They were all colleagues from the same unit, and many of them knew about Lu Shu’s relationship with Li Yan. They quickly understood why Lu Shu was here and started whispering to each other as they stared at the two of them.

Li Yan didn’t notice Lu Shu at first, but as the crowd’s attention took up the entire corridor, he finally realized that something was wrong. He turned around and saw Lu Shu, who was smiling brightly at the door. His expression darkened.

The few colleagues surrounding Li Yan also reacted when they saw this. They chuckled and said, “Ah, it’s sister-in-law? Are you here to have dinner with brother Yan? Then we’ll take our leave first. Brother Yan, godspeed.”

After they finished speaking, they did not wait to see Li Yan’s reaction and dispersed in a hubbub. Only Li Yan and Lu Shu were left standing where they were. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.

Lu Shu looked at Li Yan greedily. After making sure that he was not too fat or skinny, she heaved a sigh of relief.

When Li Yan did not say anything for a long time, she felt a little awkward. After some thought, she took the initiative to strike up a conversation. “Brother Yan, those kids in your team are quite lively, huh? It must be hard to control them when they’re handling cases, right?”

Li Yan was not in the mood for pleasantries. After a moment of silence, he forced out a sentence. “You came to see me. What’s the matter?”

Lu Shu choked on her words and looked at Li Yan. Suddenly, she felt an unspeakable grievance. “Can’t I come to see you if there’s nothing? Brother Yan, you haven’t been home for a week. I know you’ve been busy recently, but no matter how busy you are, you can’t not go home. We’re husband and wife. If you have any grievances against me, you can say it out loud. If others find out that you haven’t been home, they’ll think that something has gone wrong between the two of us.”

Only then did Li Yan turn to look at Lu Shu. His eyes were fixed on Lu Shu as if he was scrutinizing her.

Lu Shu suddenly had a bad premonition when he stared at her like that. This premonition was triggered when she heard Li Yan say, “You say husband and wife, but I feel that we…”

“Brother Yan…” Lu Shu almost screamed and interrupted Li Yan’s words. She did not dare to let him continue. What did he mean by that?

Was Li Yan planning to divorce her? This realization made Lu Shu’s face turn pale. How could they divorce? How could that be possible? She had spent so much effort and paid such a heavy price to finally be together with him. They had finally married and established a beautiful family that belonged to them. How could they give up just like that? How could they divorce? How could they!

“Brother Yan, look, it’s already noon. You haven’t eaten yet, right? I haven’t eaten either. I didn’t have time to eat in the morning, and now I’m starving. Let’s go eat first,” Lu Shu said as she glanced pitifully at Li Yan. She tried to soften Li Yan’s heart. “Brother Yan, you wouldn’t be unwilling to fulfill such a small request of mine, would you?”

Li Yan was still rather soft-hearted, after all. After being begged by Lu Shu, he gave in with little hesitation.

“Alright, let’s go eat first.”

Lu Shu was just about to heave a sigh of relief when Li Yan added, “It just so happens that I have something to tell you as well. We can talk about it while we eat.”

Lu Shu’s expression suddenly froze. After realizing what Li Yan was about to tell her, she forced a smile and said, “Then… then, alright.”

Filled with worry and unease, Lu Shu followed Li Yan out of the police station. After taking a few steps outside, she stared at Li Yan’s tall and straight back. Lu Shu seemed to come up to a decision and suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Li Yan took a few steps forward and realized that the person next to him was no longer following him. He frowned and turned to look at Lu Shu behind him. “Lu Shu, what’s wrong? Why…” Aren’t you leaving?

Li Yan swallowed the second half of his question because he could see the tears on Lu Shu’s face as she slowly raised her head.

Lu Shu sobbed as she said, “Brother Yan, do you not want me anymore?”

Li Yan immediately panicked when Lu Shu cried. He was not afraid of anything, but he was afraid of seeing a girl cry in front of him. He rushed to Lu Shu and said, “Lu Shu, don’t cry. Don’t cry.”

Lu Shu took this opportunity. She grabbed Li Yan’s arm. “Brother Yan, I know you don’t like me, and you don’t like my family background. You don’t like me hurting others because of you. I… I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I promise… I promise that I won’t hurt others because of something like this in the future. I just… I just love you too much. I love you so much that I can’t control myself. Without you, I would feel worse than death.

Lu Shu looked at Li Yan with great affection, and she said sincerely, “I know that my actions have put you in a difficult position. I also know that some of my actions have indeed gone too far. I promise that I’ll change. In the future, I won’t do anything that you don’t like. I’ll change, I’ll change everything. Brother Yan, can you give me a chance? Just once! Don’t leave me, don’t Leave Me!”

Li Yan became even more flustered when he saw Lu Shu like this. However, when Lu Shu brought up the matter of not leaving her and to give her a chance, Li Yan’s eyes flickered. In the end, he still reached out. He pulled Lu Shu’s hand away from his body in a cold and unyielding manner.

Lu Shu’s eyes widened in disbelief when she saw this. She could not believe that Li Yan would still insist on leaving her and refuse to stay by her side, even after she had done so much.

“Brother Yan…”

Li Yan turned his face away, not daring to meet Lu Shu’s eyes. He said hoarsely, “I’m sorry. I heard everything you just said, and I know that you love me very much.”

“Then…”

Before Lu Shu could finish, Li Yan interrupted her. “I’m sorry. I still don’t think we’re suitable for each other.”
