My life is ending, and my aloof CEO wife is taking revenge on me.

Chapter 110 Escape

Judging from Yu Chengliang's words, he probably thought that I had said something behind Song Yafei's back, which led to Song Yafei's decision.

Song Yafei frowned unhappily. "Zhang Qian didn't say anything. It was my own decision, made by your body."

"There's nothing you can do staying here, so you might as well go to a sanatorium as soon as possible. I've already arranged your plane ticket and doctor; get there as soon as possible."

Her words were beyond question, but Yu Chengliang probably also felt that if he left this time, he might never be able to get close to Song Yafei again.

Thus, things became quite complicated.

I don't know what the final outcome will be, but I don't want to listen to their nagging.

While they were still arguing downstairs, I turned around and went back to my study. A short while later, I received a call from Professor Xie.

He seemed to be in a very relaxed environment, and his speech was less serious than usual.

After the call was connected, Professor Xie got straight to the point, "I didn't originally intend to disturb your competition, but now there's a Professor Liu here."

"He thinks highly of you and has a small design he'd like you to help with. It should only take a day or two. I wonder if you have the time?"

I am very grateful for Professor Xie's call. Right now, all I want to do is escape from Song Yafei.

Even if it's not leaving, just getting away for a few days is good.

I readily agreed, "Okay, when should we meet?"

Professor Xie: "I'll give you an address. Have your driver come over. By the way, it's a bit far, so you might need to stay here for a day or two. The environment is nice; it'll be a good opportunity to stimulate your inspiration."

"If that's the case, that would be great."

After hanging up the phone, I quickly received a text message from Professor Xie, and I started packing my luggage.

When Song Yafei came up, I was about to zip up my duffel bag when she saw this. She panicked and quickly stepped forward to grab my hand.

She probably thought I was preparing to leave because I was angry about Yu Chengliang's arrival.

She anxiously explained, "Let me explain. I've already sent him away. He won't bother us anymore. He only came today to say goodbye. Don't overthink it."

I looked at her, feeling conflicted, unsure how to explain it to her.

I certainly have reservations about Yu Chengliang, but that doesn't justify my irrational behavior.

I chose to tell the truth: "Professor Xie has a small design project and asked me to come and help. I'm just going out for a few days."

She clearly didn't believe me and firmly refused, "No, you can't go anywhere."

She's still just as willful.

I ignored her words, picked up my bag, and said, "I have to go this time."

Song Yafei wouldn't have it, so she came up and grabbed my bag, throwing it on the ground.

"Yu Chengliang and I really have nothing between us. I've told you this before. There's nothing between us!"

I couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. "Nothing? What do you mean, 'nothing at all'?"

"What's all that ambiguity between you two? It's nothing. Why would you keep helping a complete stranger of the opposite sex?"

“There’s nothing wrong with you. Would you ignore me, your husband, for someone you have no connection with? There’s nothing wrong with you. Would you let someone who’s no connection to you bully me?”

My words left Song Yafei speechless, since these things had all actually happened.

Song Yafei opened her mouth to explain, "There are some things I didn't know before..."

I snorted coldly, "What a convenient excuse of 'I don't know.' Some things can't be dealt with by simply saying 'I don't know.'"

Even if the matter is over, what has happened has happened, and the marks left on the body and the wounds in the heart can never be healed.

"This is not something that can be brushed aside with a simple 'I don't know'."

Song Yafei wanted to say something more, but ultimately she was powerless to do so.

She came over and hugged my hands, gripping my wrists with both of hers. "I'll make it up to you, I really will."

I shook my head. "If you wanted to make amends, you wouldn't have let Yu Chengliang cause trouble at our door today. If you wanted to make amends, how would you make amends for all of this?"

I took a stack of photos out of the drawer and threw them straight at her.

These photos were sent to me by Yu Chengliang time and time again to provoke me.

Some were inseparable, some were embracing, and some were almost face to face.

Every time I see these photos, my heart aches beyond words.

How can she make up for all of this?

"Take a look at yourself, and see how you're going to make up for this."

When Song Yafei saw these photos, her eyes reddened. She looked at me and said, "I can explain all of this."

I shook my head. "But I don't want to hear it anymore. Just let me go. At least for a few days, let's both calm down."

I'm so upset right now, everything I say or do is wrong, so why bother?

She probably realized I was right, grabbed my hand, looked up at me in pain.

"Where are you going? When will you be back?"

In the end, I just couldn't bring myself to be cruel to this woman I've loved for so long and given so much to.

I couldn't even bring myself to speak ill of her.

I sighed, "I'll be back in two or three days."

Song Yafei smiled. "How about I pick you up in a couple of days? Where are you going?"

I don't know if she's trying to monitor me again, afraid I'll leave?

But I declined her offer, saying, "No need, I'll go back with Professor Xie and the others."

After saying that, he stopped looking at her, went to the study, and took some paints and drawings.

I didn't want her to bother me, so I had the family driver take me directly to the place Professor Xie mentioned.

When we arrived, it was indeed a beautiful farm with clear waters and lush mountains.

I had only glanced around when Jiang Yi saw me and came over to greet me.

Beside the car, he chuckled and teased me, "Isn't the scenery here nice? You're late; the professor and I have been here for five or six days."

I laughed and said, "Oh, you didn't even invite me to such a great place. If you weren't short-staffed, were you planning on not taking me along?"

Jiang Yi smiled and patted my shoulder, "Come on, I'll take you to see the professor."

I nodded.

"Wait a moment."

I turned to the driver and said, "You go back first, I'll go back by myself later."

"Okay, sir."

After I finished speaking, I went with Jiang Yi to the farmhouse over there.

Jiang Yi glanced back at the car behind him. "Is your family worried about you?"

I smiled helplessly, "It's a long story!"

Jiang Yi didn't press the matter further; he was always a man of principle.

"Your husband is indeed not easy to deal with. But you look much better this time, and you seem different, as if you have more energy and spirit."

I've never heard anyone else say that before.

"This doesn't sound like a compliment!"

Jiang Yi laughed, "Did I say something wrong? Before, you were like a stagnant pool of water, but now it's different."
