After the divorce, the CEO forced me to have his child.

Chapter 246 Why won't you touch me?

Zheng Yuanxi turned her gaze back from the window, staring at his handsome face, remaining silent for a long time.

He Yi stroked her hair and then said, "I'm going to take a shower first. You should get some rest."

Just as he turned to leave, Zheng Yuanxi suddenly called out, "Ayi, did you take Chenchen to see Gu Zhiyao today?"

He Yi's tall frame froze instantly. After a long while, he turned to look at her, his brows furrowing slightly. "How did you know? You...sent someone to follow us?"

"Yes." Zheng Yuanxi hesitated for a moment, then did not deny it.

Then, fear and confusion crossed her face, and she murmured in pain, "Ayi, I'm so scared. I'm afraid you'll be infatuated with her again. Although you say you don't love her, she did give birth to your child. You've been unable to have sex with me, your wife, yet you've done 'that' with her time and time again. I don't want to investigate why. I just hope you two will stop having any involvement, okay? Ayi, please don't see Gu Zhiyao anymore, and especially don't take Chenchen to see her!"

He Yi pursed his lips, his handsome face still deep and serious.

Zheng Yuanxi continued, "I know it must have been her request. Can you please not agree to her requests next time? Since Chenchen already belonged to me five years ago, I can only be Chenchen's mother for the rest of my life. Even Gu Zhiyao cannot take her back, or I will go crazy. Ayi, do you understand how I feel? I beg you, Ayi!"

Seeing Zheng Yuanxi so sad and in tears, He Yi felt a little sorry for her. He opened his mouth, but couldn't bring himself to say yes.

He returned to her side, wiped away her tears, and said, "Don't cry, okay? Your health isn't very good to begin with, so you shouldn't experience extreme joy or sorrow."

"But I can't help it, Yi. Since you don't want me to experience such extreme joy and sorrow, then please help me? Fulfill my wish? I beg you, Yi, don't let her take Chenchen away. I can't live without Chenchen!"

"She won't take Chenchen away. Chenchen can only grow up with us, so don't worry," He Yi said.

"Really? Ayi, I believe you, but I don't believe her. Isn't she scheming to take Chenchen away? I'm a woman too. Even though I didn't give birth to Chenchen, I've always treated him like my own son. I can't even imagine the pain of losing Chenchen. So Gu Zhiyao must feel the same way. She definitely won't give up on taking Chenchen away. You can't be soft-hearted. No matter what she says, you can't agree to her request!" Zheng Yuanxi grabbed He Yi's hand and continued excitedly, "Didn't she say she's already remarried? If she wants children, she can have more. Anyway, she's so fertile. If I could have children myself, why would I need to raise her children? I wish I could have my own children too, but I don't have that blessing. God hasn't been kind to me in this regard!"

Seeing Zheng Yuanxi crying and sniffling, He Yi felt even worse. He sat down and held her shoulders, saying, "Alright, Yuanyuan, don't cry anymore. I promise you, I will never let Gu Zhiyao take Chenchen away. Actually, not only you, but Grandma also can't bear to lose Chenchen. So, no matter how Gu Zhiyao begs me or tries to harm me, I will protect Chenchen and keep him by our side forever. Don't cry."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Yuanxi immediately calmed down, quickly wiped away her tears, and nodded, saying, "Okay, I won't cry anymore, Ayi. I believe what you said. I hope you won't disappoint me or make me despair, Ayi!"

"Mmm," He Yi responded softly.

He only went to take a shower after Zheng Yuanxi had completely calmed down.

As Zheng Yuanxi watched the bathroom door slowly close, the sorrowful and pitiful look on her face quickly disappeared. She picked up her phone and dialed a familiar number, ordering in a deep voice, "Send someone to Canada to investigate Gu Zhiyao's situation. Investigate everything you can from the time she arrived in Canada until now. Also, she climbed to the position of executive vice mayor in such a short time, it can't be that simple. See if she has any affairs with other people, and focus on investigating the politicians around her."

"Yes, Miss, I'll arrange it immediately."

"Ah."

Zheng Yuanxi remained expressionless, her eyes filled with hatred, until the bathroom door opened. Only then did she quickly regain her composure, giving He Yi a warm smile, walking closer to him, and throwing herself into his arms.

Caught off guard, He Yi froze instantly. He instinctively tried to push her away, but his hand froze in mid-air halfway through its reach.

After a while, Zheng Yuanxi lifted her head from his embrace, gazed at him tenderly, and said, "Ayi, shall we try it tonight? I miss you so much, Ayi..."

As she spoke, she acted quickly, her slender fingers groping his body and probing inside his clothes.

He Yi also came to his senses and pressed her hand down without hesitation.

"Ayi?" Zheng Yuanxi frowned, looking puzzled. She struggled for a moment, then stood on tiptoe and kissed him directly on the lips.

boom!

He Yi finally couldn't hold back and pushed her away.

Caught off guard, Zheng Yuanxi fell to the ground, looking at He Yi with shock and grief.

He Yi took a deep breath and squatted down to help her up.

But Zheng Yuanxi pushed him away violently and burst into tears, "Ayi, why are you treating me like this? I'm your wife! I begged you for your company, but you ruthlessly pushed me to the ground? What did I do wrong?"

He Yi remained silent.

Zheng Yuanxi continued to cry and shout, looking at his deep, cold, and unfathomable appearance. Suddenly, she remembered what Wen Ya had said to her that day.

Did he know about that matter too?

Did you know she had already had relationships with other men?

So you dislike her?

Yes, he has an extreme obsession with cleanliness in this regard; he will never allow a woman who has been touched by another man to touch him.

But if he knew, he would have settled accounts with her long ago. He wouldn't have tolerated it until now and still been so good to her.

Although they have argued over the years, it was always her who started it, and he always tolerated her and continued to pamper her. Apart from not being able to have a normal married life with her, everything else was great.

So it's impossible.

He definitely doesn't know about that!

And of course, she couldn't let him know, she never could let him know!

In his mind, she was still Zheng Yuanxi, pure, noble, and holy, someone only he could touch.

Zheng Yuanxi took a deep breath, slowly got up, deliberately gave him a heartbroken look, and walked into the bathroom looking dejected.

He Yi's feelings of guilt were indeed stirred up, but another scene filled his mind.

He knew perfectly well why he didn't want to touch her.
