Chapter 879: Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, cold beauty x killer 13
When Shen Xi woke up the next day, he was completely confused. Before going to bed last night, his favorability was still firmly at 45%. How come it changed after waking up? He was full of doubts and confusion.
"It's fine that the favorability has dropped, but why has the blackness value, which has not changed, also increased?"
Shen Xi muttered to himself. He thought that after last night's efforts, he could at least stabilize the situation, but he didn't expect the result to be the exact opposite.
If his favorability and blackened values had not changed, he might have been able to comfort himself that his offensive was not fierce enough, but the current situation forced him to face a cruel fact - his efforts were not only ineffective, but had the opposite effect.
Shen Xi was unwilling to give in, so he decided to check the surveillance footage from last night to see what exactly happened.
The result is not clear even if you look at it, and you will be shocked when you look at it.
It turns out that the favorability did not drop from 45%, but rather dropped all the way from 60% to the current level.
Seeing this, the uneasiness in his heart gradually subsided, replaced by a helpless sobriety. At least, he now knew where the problem was.
Last night, the two of them slept in the same bed, which should have been an opportunity for their relationship to take a step further, but it unexpectedly became the fuse for the deterioration of their relationship.
The answer that Shen Xi didn't want to believe in his heart became extremely clear at this moment. He realized that he might have underestimated some things and underestimated the other party's intentions.
On the way home, the atmosphere was extremely heavy.
The two of them were silent along the way, as if they had returned to the days when they first met.
Shen Xi knew in his heart that it was urgent to repair this relationship.
However, Xie Qi had been avoiding him. No matter how hard Shen Xi tried, Xie Qi always avoided him.
Shen Xi has been looking for opportunities these days to try to repair the relationship between the two, but was cleverly avoided by Xie Qi every time.
What's worse is that Xie Qi's blackening value is increasing like a tide, rising by 2% every day. Shen Xi is anxious, but there is nothing he can do.
On this day, Shen Xi was called into the room by his grandfather Shen Kan.
Shen Kan had some portraits of unmarried noble ladies in the capital painted, hoping that Shen Xi could select a few who caught his eye and arrange a meeting with them.
Shen Xi looked at these portraits and his expression became increasingly ugly.
"Grandfather, please stop making trouble!" Shen Xi cried out inwardly, "I'm just worried about not being able to coax her back, aren't you just adding fuel to the fire?"
Sure enough, before he could explain his true thoughts to his grandfather, the man in black outside the door, Xie Qi, felt heartbroken.
Xie Qi leaned against the closed door, his hands clenched into fists, his nails digging deep into his flesh. However, the pain in his hands was not even one ten-thousandth of the pain in his heart.
After just a moment, Xie Qi let go of his hand.
Then he left the place with a very calm expression, returned to the yard where he lived, and packed up his things silently.
He left at a very coincidental time, just before Shen Xi and Shen Kan confessed their homosexuality.
When Shen Kan heard that his most beloved grandson had this habit, he was only shocked for a short while.
The customs of the court were very open, and marriage between men was no longer a very rare thing.
So Shen Kan accepted it immediately.
He waved his hand and asked the servants to put away all the portraits.
"Kid, if you had told grandpa earlier, grandpa wouldn't have to work so hard."
Shen Xi sat in the seat next to him.
Smiling and trying to please him, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were so anxious about my marriage.
Besides, my grandson already has someone he likes. I will bring him to you in a few days."
The Shen family is so wealthy and powerful that they don't need any family marriage to consolidate their status, so the identity of his grandson's lover is not very important. As long as the person has good character and is good to his grandson, he can accept everything.
Shen Kan held his hand.
"Okay, then Grandpa will wait."
Shen Xi chatted with Shen Kan for a while before getting up and returning to his own yard.
After returning to the yard, I found that the sky had fallen.
Xie Qi has already packed his things.
In fact, he didn't bring much. He didn't take away any of the clothes that Shen Xi made for him. He just wore one.
Shen Xi stood at the door of his room, watching him pack up his things, his face darkening.
"What are you doing?"
Hearing the sound, Xie Qi paused while packing his things. After a moment, he tied the package and picked it up.
"Nothing, I want to go."
