Chapter 381 Farewell

Shen Manman listened to her words, staring at her in amazement, and was speechless for a moment.

Finally, he nodded and smiled, "You are right. You are my biological mother. I should be happy that you were able to escape. I am happy for you. There is no right or wrong between us."

Lin Yaxian wiped the tears from her eyes: "Manman... I know I didn't do well enough... but we are mother and daughter..."

Shen Manman said calmly: "I don't hate you anymore. But our mother-daughter relationship has long been abandoned by you. We don't owe each other anything."

Lin Yaxian stared at her in a daze: "Manman... No, you should understand me..."

"I understand. But no one can change what has happened. You gave birth to me, but you also abandoned me. Now we are even! I came with you today just to tell you this."

As she said this, Shen Manman looked at her steadily: “I thank my grandfather and the Lin family. I don’t hate you, but we will never have any contact again.”

"Everything that happened between us has made it impossible for me to look you in the face again. Separating and keeping a distance can make me calm and happy."

"You are my biological mother, and you will always be. This is something that cannot be changed. I will not disown you. But if you really love me, please never disturb my life again."

"When we meet in the future, we can just nod to each other politely, and that will complete the friendship between us."

"And Daddy is getting married soon. Please stop pestering me and just keep each other's dignity."

After saying that, she bowed to her and said, "Mrs. Lin, goodbye."

After saying that, Shen Manman turned around and walked out.

"Manman..." Lin Yaxian felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife.

Shen Manman's words completely shattered all her fantasies.

There's no going back...

There is no going back...

“Ah, why is Daddy here?” Shen Manman’s voice suddenly came from a distance.

Lin Yaxian was startled and looked up. Sure enough, she saw a tall figure in the shadows between a few plum trees.

She was shocked and ran over quickly: "Zhi Yan——"

Amidst the dense shadows of plum blossoms, Shen Zhiyan turned around.

He was still as cold and handsome as ever, just like the young man who had obsessed her back then. The young man is handsome, talented, and beautiful as a flash.

The years have left almost no trace on him.

Shen Zhiyan's eyes fell on her, distant and unfamiliar: "Mrs. Lin, please respect yourself. Shen's name is not something you can call."

Then he looked down at Shen Manman and said, “Let’s go.”

Shen Manman raised her head and smiled: “Yeah.”

The father and daughter walked together, and soon they were blended into a sea of ​​plum blossom shadows. They were clearly close at hand, yet far away in the horizon.

He doesn't see her!

Not at all!

Not even hate...

Lin Yaxian's body went limp and she fell to the ground, crying her heart out.

......

The banquet over there is almost over.

Ye Jin'er couldn't concentrate and pulled Ye Caiping: "I wonder what happened to Sister Man?"

Ye Caiping smiled and said, "Don't worry, Chang Xi and Chun Liu are following us."

Chunliu is a maidservant beside Madam Shen.

At this time, Mrs. Shen stood up with a smile: “Hurry up, let’s go, it’s finally over.”

At some point, the Grand Princess at the top had ordered the group to be disbanded.

Ye Caiping had just stood up when she saw the Grand Princess coming over and holding her hand tightly: "Ye Yiren, I really like you so much! You are so good at talking, please talk more in the future."

Madam Shen chuckled.

The eldest princess said, "You will be married after the Chinese New Year. Should you move into your new house before the New Year? Don't forget me when the time comes."

Ye Caiping smiled and said, "We have already decided to move to a new house on the 20th. I was planning to shamelessly invite Your Highness to come. Now that Your Highness is willing to come, I am more than happy to have you. When the time comes, I will show Your Highness something new."

"Oh? Then I'll have to look forward to it."

The noble ladies around also came over and said, "Don't forget me, Ye Yiren."

"And me."

Ye Caiping answered them one by one with a smile.

She would then show them her water-pressing well.

At this time, the maid Chang Xi came over.

Chang Xi said, "Madam, Madam Ye, Sister Chunliu has sent the young lady home."

Mrs. Shen nodded: “Okay.”

After talking for a while, Ye Caiping and others said goodbye to the princess.

Ye Caiping and others went out of the second gate and unexpectedly saw Shen Zhiyan standing under a tree in the outer courtyard.

Seeing him, Ye Caiping narrowed her eyes in a smile, and Madam Shen said, "Why is Brother Yan here?"

Shen Zhiyan said, "I was passing by and came in to take a look. I just saw Manman and asked Duanwu to send them home first. Let's go, I'll take you home."

Madam Shen snorted and laughed: "No need, you can send Caiping away. Jin'er Huan'er, come, go home with your aunt first."

As he said this, he took a girl in his hand and turned to leave.

Shen Zhiyan’s eyes were tinged with smile.

Ye Caiping asked: "Are you really just passing by?"

"No. I learned that you would meet Lin Yaxian today, and I was a little worried, so I came to see you."

Ye Caiping snorted softly: "Why, are you afraid that we will be bullied by her?"

"My wife is very eloquent. Even ten of her can't bully her. But I'm always worried and want to come over to take a look."

As he spoke, he tucked her hair behind her ears.

Ye Caiping noticed that he called her "wife"...

Her face turned slightly red.

And she appreciated his concern.

No matter how capable she was, he still cared about her, knowing that she could handle it.

Shen Zhiyan asked, "Walk around the street?"

"Um."

"I just watched from a distance for a while. You guys were playing a game called Idiom Chain? It was quite interesting, and you even won first place."

"Yeah, I'm very good at it!" he said with a proud look on his face.

"Then let's play a round?"

"Um...don't." Did he think she was a fool?

Shen Zhiyan smiled, took her hand, and the two of them left hand in hand.

Lin Yaxian walked out from behind the second door and looked at the two people's backs as they walked away. She was heartbroken again.

He actually has this side of him?

Even during the first one or two months of their marriage, when their relationship was at its best, he was nothing but gentle and accommodating towards her.

But he actually kissed that woman... so proactively! This was something she had never experienced before!

Even though I didn't want to admit it, I had to admit that Shen Zhiyan actually had that woman in his heart...

How is that possible!

Lin Yaxian's heart was broken again, as if the sky was falling and she felt dizzy.

If her maid hadn't supported her, she would have fallen to the ground.
