My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day

Chapter 745: 745, Xiaobai fouls

Old Wang sighed, “It’s all my fault. My son suddenly had a fever and was sent to the hospital this afternoon, otherwise I would have stayed at the office to work overtime with Lawyer Lu. The case tomorrow is very important, and there was a sudden issue before getting off work that required some materials to supplement. Lawyer Lu must be angry with me, that’s why he is not answering my calls.”

Mo Weiyi comforted him, “That’s not it. I helped him check the materials he will use tomorrow, there’s no problem. He didn’t answer your call, maybe he’s too tired and already went to sleep, or maybe his phone is on silent and he didn’t hear.”

After all, Lu Chenyu was frail and was lacking vitality.

“Well, that’s good to know.” Old Wang seemed relieved.

After hanging up the phone, Mo Weiyi put the phone back in her handbag and turned to leave.

She hadn’t walked far when her wrist was grabbed.

Mo Weiyi looked up at the man, clearly annoyed.

Xiao Yebai said, “Let’s go home.”

Mo Weiyi wasn’t planning to let him off though, “You go back on your own, I even had to buy the cups myself.”

Xiao Yebai: “…”

There were people coming and going in the corridor, Mo Weiyi pouted, clearly angry.

The man raised an eyebrow, put his hand on her shoulder and said, “You’re angry?”

“Humph.” Mo Weiyi turned her face away, refusing to look at him.

But her face was quickly turned back towards him, Xiao Yebai lowered his head, observing her delicate and radiant features, clearly upset, “You’re angry over 200 yuan?”

200 yuan?

Was it about the money?

Mo Weiyi didn’t say a word.

But she felt uncomfortable inside.

Xiao Yebai pinched her chin, retracted his hand, turned around, and walked out with her.

…

They entered the elevator, then went downstairs and got in the car.

The whole way Mo Weiyi didn’t say a word.

Not until Xiao Yebai got in the car, he suddenly reached out.

Mo Weiyi asked, “What are you doing?”

As she asked, she glared at him with her beautiful cat eyes.

They were clear and bright in the light, as if holding two pools of spring water.

Xiao Yebai gazed at her, then leaned down.

…

…

…

“Are you still angry with me now?”

Mo Weiyi was irritated, “You…you cheated!”

He actually used his good looks to influence her!

“How did I cheat?” the man’s deep voice seemed to contain a hint of laughter.

The lights were off, anyway, Mo Weiyi couldn’t see him.

But she was still upset.

She couldn’t help but raise her head, opened her mouth, and bit down on his hand.

A hand quickly grabbed her neck, Xiao Yebai said, “Let go.”

Of course, Mo Weiyi didn’t really want to hurt him. After a little punishment, she quickly released her mouth and started accusing him, “Why didn’t you let me buy those cups?”

Xiao Yebai said calmly, “Didn’t we already buy them?”

“…”

Mo Weiyi was stunned for a moment, “I mean, why didn’t you buy them and give it to me as a gift?”

In the end, they each paid 240 yuan, a split bill.

They had been married for more than two years, they weren’t lovers.

Even if they were lovers, when buying a pair of couple mugs, you wouldn’t pay separately, right?

The man was silent for a moment in the darkness.

Then, he slowly said, “Isn’t the symbolism of giving cups a bad omen.”

“What’s wrong with it?” Mo Weiyi was taken aback once again.

Ah.

Could it be… a tragedy?

Xiaobai actually believes this?

Xiao Yebai didn’t say anything, just fastened her seatbelt.

The car light turned on. Mo Weiyi grabbed her collar, “Help me find the button.”

He actually violently tore off the button on her collar.

Xiao Yebai glanced at her and said, “Okay.”

Mo Weiyi sat there, watching the man bend over to help her find those tiny buttons.

He only wore a shirt and trousers since getting in the car, the fabric now strained due to his movements, the muscle lines on his back and arms were tight and clear, exuding masculinity.

Soon, he stood up, “Here.”

Mo Weiyi extended her hand, a delicate pink button was placed in her palm.

She giggled and complimented, “Honey, you’re so amazing!”

Men like to be complimented.

Sure enough.

Xiaoyebai raised an eyebrow, the corner of his thin lips curled up slightly.

He looked so arrogant and charming.

“There’s another one.” Mo Weiyi reminded. @@novelbin@@

“Mm.”

He bent down to look for the second one.

Mo Weiyi took the opportunity to open her collar and take a look, “Xiaobai, you ripped my collar.”

Xiao Yebai quickly stood up, the second red button between his fingers., “Is it broken?”

“Mm.”

She didn’t see clearly just now, but now she saw that a piece was torn off from where the button was.

Looks like this outfit can’t be worn again.

“Is it so fragile?”

Hearing this, Mo Weiyi immediately sulked, “It’s your fault for being so rough!”

The material of this spring and summer outfit was already thin enough, then he blamed the fabric for not being durable after he forcefully tore it?

“If that’s the case.” The main culprit said, “You should probably throw this button away.”

“No!” Mo Weiyi quickly snatched the button from his hand, “You picked it up for me, so I will keep it as a memento.”

“What do you need it for?”

Other than jewelry, Mo Weiyi didn’t seem to have any other strange collecting habits.

Let alone these tiny buttons.

“Regardless, I’m going to keep it.” Mo Weiyi spoke as she carefully held onto the two buttons, “Let’s go home.”

Xiao Yebai sat his body back down, “Hmm.”

After returning home, Mo Weiyi, as expected, placed the two buttons into a small bottle.

It was only after that when she started unboxing the pair of couple cups.

“The pink one is mine, the light blue one is yours, remember to bring it to the office tomorrow.”

Hearing this, the man’s eyebrow twitched without warning, “Why do I have to bring it to the office?”

“Because I will be using it at the office.”

“It’s not like we’re in the same office.”

The underlying meaning: Does it make sense?

“No, if I’m using mine in the office, you must also use yours in the office.” Mo Weiyi insisted, “You aren’t allowed not to use it, I’ll have Zhong Kai check.”

Xiao Yebai was speechless.

So the next morning, each of them brought a cartoon cup to work.

The first stop was at Yurui Law Firm.

Mo Weiyi would arrive at the firm before 9 o’clock sharp every day. Basically, other than the receptionist on the 10th floor and some interns, she was always the earliest.

Today was no different.

As soon as she walked in, she noticed the receptionist hurriedly coming from the corridor.

“Miss Mo, have you seen Lawyer Lu?”

Lu Chenyu?

Mo Weiyi asked, “Did he come to the office?”

“Yes, he has already arrived, his bag is on my desk. He got a call, Mr. Wang said the court will open at half past nine, so I need to get him to the court. It’s almost nine o’clock now, if he’s any later, he won’t make it.”

“Did he go to the bathroom?”

“Impossible. The men’s washroom door is broken and there should be no one in there. Also, Lawyer Lu has his own washroom in his private office, he never goes to the public washroom.”

Mo Weiyi blinked, “Is that so?”

She thought she remembered that Lu Chenyu had said he was going to the bathroom when leaving work the night before?

Before she had time to think, footsteps echoed behind her.

A male lawyer carrying a teacup walked over, “Xiaoxing, is the men’s bathroom door still not fixed?”

“Lawyer Hu, maintenance said they would send someone over to fix it after they start work.”

Lawyer Hu nodded and left.

Mo Weiyi stood there, suddenly feeling something was off.

When she and Xiao Yebai came downstairs yesterday, they waited around for a while but didn’t see Lu Chenyu come down…

As expected.

Just a moment later, Lawyer Hu quickly ran inside, “Quick, call maintenance to send someone up.”

“What happened?”

Mo Weiyi also looked at him in surprise.

Lawyer Hu was panting heavily, “Lawyer Lu… Lawyer Lu is locked in the restroom.”

Everyone: “…”

Twenty minutes later, the maintenance worker rushed over with his tools.

Everyone followed him.

The men’s restroom door was shut tight. The old maintenance worker pulled out his tools and started fixing it while complaining, “Didn’t you see the notice I posted out here!”

No one dared to speak.

The maintenance worker asked again, “How long has he been trapped inside?”

Lawyer Hu replied, “I’m not sure. I was washing a cup outside when I heard knocking from inside.”

The receptionist added, “I also don’t know what time Lawyer Lu arrived, I came in at 8:40, at least… almost an hour, right?”

Mo Weiyi was silent.

…

It didn’t take long for the door lock to be fixed.

When the door opened, everyone held their breaths, waiting in anticipation to see the man who walked out from inside.

The worker hmmed twice, “Young man, remember to carry your mobile phone with you next time. You’re lucky I came early today. On normal days, I wouldn’t come until 10, you were fortunate to bump into me today…”

Lu Chenyu walked out, his face was dark and his eyes filled with bloodshot staring at Mo Weiyi.

After the maintenance worker finished his lecture, he left with his toolbox.

Mo Weiyi couldn’t help but ask, “Master, why are you staring at me?”

It was rather scary.

It wasn’t her fault that he got locked in the restroom because he didn’t look at the notice, right?
