My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Suddenly, as if remembering something, she tilted her head and asked, “By the way, Li Shengxiao, did you have a word with the court?”

Otherwise, why had the court been so blatantly in her favor during the trial, proceeding in an inexplicably smooth manner!

It was so smooth that it was completely one-sided, utterly overwhelming the opposing legal team.

Way too fishy!

The man sitting on the couch uncrossed his long legs and stood up, nonchalantly saying, “Yeah, just made a casual call.”

“I knew it…” She had suspected as much—the court had been catering to her throughout, even offering her a seat when presenting evidence, for fear she would get tired from standing.

It was indeed him.

Li Shengxiao didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he had done; he naturally captured her gaze and said, “You’re my girlfriend, they ought to take care of you! And don’t worry about the verdict; I’ll handle it!”

HuanYu and the Shi Family would definitely pressurize the court eventually.

But she wasn’t alone; she had him at her back!

As long as she wanted to win, both HuanYu and the Shi Family would have no choice but to accept the judgment. Otherwise… he would make these people understand the consequences of their actions!

The words “You are my girlfriend” made Rong Yan’s heartbeat accelerate. She clenched her lips, not knowing what to say, and it took a while before she managed to utter, “Actually, I wasn’t too worried…”

This time, they had enough evidence to prove that Rong Weiwei and Shi Mufeng had slandered and spread rumors about her, damaging her reputation.

She had also considered that after the case, this despicable couple might use their social connections, but with the case being so high-profile and monitored by many, it wouldn’t be easy for them to find a way out.

The most important thing was that, although she didn’t want to admit it, a large part of the reason she could be so fearless was that she had him behind her.

Because she had Li Shengxiao, she wasn’t worried at all.

With his assurance, the little worry she had dispelled even more.

“By the way, Li Shengxiao, have you seen Duidui? I’ve looked everywhere; he’s not at home?”

Where had Little Baby run off to?

Li Shengxiao noticed that she hesitated when she claimed not to be too worried and changed the subject, slightly disappointed, but in response to her question, he replied, “He went visiting with his grandma at a relative’s house; he won’t be back tonight.”

“So it’s just us at home?” Rong Yan, remembering the 2000 yuan she had pocketed to celebrate with Little Baby, suddenly felt deflated. She had happily withdrawn the money to treat the little guy to a nice meal, and he wasn’t even home!

The tall and handsome man narrowed his eyes slightly as if considering whether her statement “just us at home” pleased him or not.

But when his dark, eagle-like eyes met Rong Yan’s bright ones, the hint of displeasure that had risen in his chest quickly dissipated.

“Yeah.”

“Alright then…” Rong Yan resigned herself to the fact. Only then did she belatedly realize that he had come home exceptionally early today, “Hey, why did you come home so early today?”

Li Shengxiao, with his hands in his pockets, casually dressed in homewear, had a style of his own, his long legs seemingly having nowhere to go! His voice was deep, and his unflinching gaze fixed on Rong Yan as if he intended to etch her image deep into his marrow!

“Finished dealing with things ahead of schedule.”
