The Actor’s Ex-wife

Chapter 3

This house of the Shen family was a wedding gift given to her and Shen Xiao by Mr. Shen. It is located close to the mountains and the sea. It is known as the most noble secluded mansion in S City. There are several owners who live in this area. It's still a mystery.

For Jian You, who had been working hard in City S for more than ten years in her previous life but could not collect the down payment, this was simply a windfall. However, thinking about the tragic experience that she would face in the future, Jian You felt that these days Still have to take it easy.

Jian You was admiring the sea view outside the window while carrying her bag downstairs.

The maid Mrs. Zhou who just came upstairs to call Jian You was cleaning in the hall downstairs. When she saw Jian You coming downstairs, she looked straight at her and even stopped moving her hands.

"Mrs...Mrs...." Mrs. Zhou stood up from the ground. When she lowered her head, she couldn't help but glance at Jian You secretly. Although she felt that Jian You looked very different from usual today, there was something reassuring about her. a feeling of.

"Old Chen's car is already waiting at the door. Madam, I will take you out." Sister-in-law Zhou came up to meet her.

Jian You nodded, and suddenly remembered that she was wearing slippers, so she sat down on the leather sofa in the hall, raised her head and said, "Sister-in-law Zhou, I don't quite remember where I put my shoes. Go and help me." Get a pair of high heels."

 Jian You in the book rarely goes out and can be said to be an out-and-out homebody, so Jian You doesn’t even know where her shoes are.

Sister-in-law Zhou smiled after hearing this: "My wife rarely wore high heels before, but I bought a pair when I attended a family banquet last year and only wore them once. I went to help my wife get them."

Jian You nodded and began to look at the furnishings in the hall. Although the house is newly renovated, it has the feel of a European castle. Except for the leather sofa she is sitting on, all the furniture is made of red pine wood. A gorgeous crystal chandelier hangs in the center of the hall, with a piano placed underneath it, wiped spotless.

It didn't take long for Mrs. Zhou to bring over the high-heeled shoes. They were white fish-mouth style and the heels were only about five centimeters... But at this time, there was really no time to worry about whether they matched or not.

Jian You was about to bend down to put on her shoes, but she saw Sister-in-law Zhou was already kneeling on one knee, bent down, holding her feet, and helping her put on her shoes. Her feet were very small, probably no more than size thirty-five, and her toenails were trimmed neatly, like small pink shells. Although she didn't have any nail protection products on them at all, they looked white and shiny, just like Polished and Tian Jade.

As Sister-in-law Zhou put on Jian You's shoes, she said, "If Madam had tidied herself up like this, Sir wouldn't have been absent from home all the time."

Jian You felt guilty after hearing this. What would she do if she wanted that scumbag to come back... If he came back, wouldn't she still have to avoid him? Sister-in-law Zhou saw Jian You blushing and thought that Jian You was embarrassed. She frowned and said with a smile: "Madam, don't blame me for talking too much. In fact, the husband likes the wife very much. You two grew up together when you were young, and we are childhood sweethearts..."

Seeing that she had already put on her shoes, Jian You was afraid that she would not be able to stop talking, so she hurriedly stood up and said, "Okay Sister-in-law Zhou, I understand."

At Mrs. Zhou's sigh, Jian You walked out of the hall and came to a Rolls-Royce parked at the door not far away.

 Lao Chen who was driving was also an old servant of the Shen family. He had almost watched Jian You and Shen Xiao grow up. Mr. Shen's wife died young and he had only one daughter. He had no one to inherit the family business, so he chose a capable son-in-law from among his descendants. The two gave birth to only one son, Shen Xiao.

As for Jian You, she was adopted by Mr. Shen. However, the child is indeed good-looking and Mr. Shen likes her very much, but her temperament is too introverted. Mr. Shen also spent real money to train her. She studied in a British aristocratic school since she was a child. It was not until the age of eighteen that the old man had a heart attack, so he called the two back to China to register their marriage.

Later, the old man recovered from his illness, but the marriage between the two did not stop. But...he, a servant who was driving, could also see that Shen Xiao actually didn't like Jian You.

 As a man, who likes his woman to be like a piece of wood?

 But Jian You is not only a piece of wood, she is also sick!

 “Madam, madam, don’t forget to take your medicine.”

At this time, Mrs. Zhou had hurriedly walked out of the hall, holding a glass of water and the lid of a small white medicine bottle with a few pills in the lid.

Jian You then remembered that this person was indeed sick. Because of her extreme low self-esteem caused by being dependent on others since childhood and her secret love for Shen Xiao, there is no way to resolve it. Jian You in the book suffers from severe depression. Although she has not yet reached the stage of being world-weary or committing suicide, she relies on medicine every day to control her condition and prevent her from appearing. Hallucinations and pessimism.

But it is completely impossible for Jian You to have that kind of emotion now. If she takes medicine, will she really be sick?

However, in order not to make Mrs. Zhou suspicious, Jian You still took the water glass and bottle cap and pretended to take the medicine, but actually poured it on the lawn at her feet.

"Madam, please go ahead. Lao Chen will be waiting for you at Bai's house."
