When Ye Li and Fu Yanci came downstairs, Aunt Lan had already prepared breakfast.
Seeing Ye Li, as if knowing she would ask, Aunt Lan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Madam is fine."
They said they'd chat for a bit and then go to sleep, but they kept talking until dawn broke outside the window and realized the whole night had passed.
She spoke with great pride about her sensible daughter, Ali.
They talked about how she discovered their well-intentioned concealment from her and how she verified it.
When talking about the birthday party on the top floor of Yunjing yesterday, Li Xueqing's words were filled with pride.
"The lady said that the banquet hall was full of beauties of all shapes and sizes, but she spotted her Ah Li at a glance, who was as beautiful as Snow White."
Aunt Lan smiled, handed Fu Yanci a cup of black coffee, and then stuffed a cup of soy milk into Ye Li's hand, "Madam also said..."
"What else is there to say?"
Li Xueqing's voice rang out from behind, "Sister Lan, you didn't say anything bad about me to Ali, did you?"
"They said a lot."
Aunt Lan smiled.
Ye Li turned around and her gaze fell on her mother's face.
My eyes are a little swollen, but I'm in good spirits.
It didn't seem like he was forcing a smile to comfort her.
Li Xueqing paused slightly.
It was already Sunday, but Ye Li was wearing a formal little black dress, as if she was going to a meeting at her studio.
Ye Li also noticed the dark-colored cheongsam that Li Xueqing was wearing.
Last night when we went to the banquet hall, my mother was wearing a pearl necklace and had a simple hairpin in her hair.
But today she wasn't wearing a necklace or a hairpin, only her wedding ring on her finger.
Although neither mother nor daughter said anything, they both tacitly knew that they were going to visit Ye Mushen's cemetery today.
"Mom, let's go see Dad in a bit."
Ye Li opened her arms and gave Li Xueqing a big hug, then turned to look at Fu Yanci.
Fu Yanci nodded, "Ali, I'll go with you!"
As she spoke, Fu Yanci looked at Li Xueqing and said, "Mom, you and Ali wait for me at home for a while. I'll go back and change my clothes, and then I'll come back to pick you up."
"good!"
Li Xueqing nodded.
Fu Yanci stood up and ruffled Ye Li's hair. "I'll be back soon."
Fu Yanci left without even having breakfast.
When he came back, he was wearing a black suit and a black overcoat, and even the white shirt underneath was now black.
Against his calm and solemn expression, he exuded an air of aloofness and detachment.
In what seemed like an instant, he transformed from the gentle and composed Fu Yanci into the cold and taciturn Master Fu in public.
As the Maybach drove out of the villa area where the Ye family lived, a convoy of cars merged from the intersection and followed behind it.
When the cars stopped at the entrance of the western suburbs cemetery, the black convoy was already neatly lined up on both sides of the road.
High-profile and grand.
Ye Mushen's tombstone is on the east side of the cemetery.
In the black and white photo on the tombstone, the refined and composed middle-aged man has a calm gaze and a serene smile.
Li Xueqing burst into tears almost as soon as she saw the photo.
He placed his favorite lilies.
He added his favorite osmanthus cake.
Li Xueqing took out a plain white handkerchief and wiped the already spotless tombstone clean from top to bottom again.
Li Xueqing asked Ye Li and Fu Yanci to step forward and bow to their father, expressing their longing and condolences. Then, Li Xueqing looked at Fu Yanci and said, "Yanci, you should take A Li back first."
“Ah Li…”
Li Xueqing looked at Ye Li, whose eyes were red from crying, and said, "Mommy and Daddy will talk for a while. Be a good girl and go back with Yan Ci first, okay?"
Knowing that her mother had a lot to say to her father, Ye Li forced back the tears welling up in her eyes and nodded, "Okay!"
Even after they've all gone far away, you can still hear the sobbing and wailing sounds carried on the wind.
Ye Li glanced back once, and tears streamed down her face like broken beads.
