Until he left home, Fu Yanci still felt that this was just a relatively formal dinner for him and Ali in Milan.
Even though Ali tirelessly picked out shirts, suits, and ties for him, as if she wanted to make him look impeccably dressed from head to toe.
Fu Yanci also thought it was because he had won a big prize in the competition and wanted to celebrate properly.
For a moment, Fu Yanci really wanted to tease her: "Ali, you don't have any love rivals in Milan that you want to take me there to show off and avenge your previous humiliation, do you?"
Until I pushed open the door and saw Sang Qing.
Fu Yanci understood.
Turning back, he saw the girl's bright eyes, "Fu Yanci, love doesn't need to be practiced!"
From the moment Ye Li received "Tao Yao" and decided to meet Sang Qing after the competition, she noticed that Fu Yanci was acting strangely.
During meals.
When you pick up a water glass.
He would occasionally freeze for a few seconds.
After repeating this several times, Ye Li realized that Fu Yanci was probably rehearsing the scene of his meeting with Sang Qing.
Perhaps from the moment he saw Sang Qing, he had already mentally rehearsed what to say, when to do what, and how to react.
But the more I think about it, the more confused I get, and the more confused I get, the more panicked I become. I can never figure it out.
Love is a genuine expression of emotion; it cannot be simulated or rehearsed.
That's why this unexpected meeting happened.
The moment Fu Yanci stood frozen outside the door, Sang Qing stood up in a daze, unable to utter the words "You've come" even though her throat was choked with emotion.
"mom……"
Ye Li pushed Fu Yanci through the door.
Sang Qing was taken aback, but the girl had already rushed over and hugged her like a cheerful lark. "Mom, if I had known you were San, I would have taken Fu Yanci to find you a year ago! ... Thank you for the gift, Mom. We love it, especially me!"
A sweet and soft girl, just like a beautiful Barbie doll.
She kept calling him "Mom".
In the more than twenty years since leaving the capital and Fu Yanci, Sang Qing had never imagined this.
To be precise, I didn't dare to even think about it.
Even during the hour she waited, the scene she imagined was one of alienation and awkwardness.
But reality is a hundred times warmer and happier than imagined.
Sang Qing's eyes immediately reddened.
"If you like it, that's good. If you like it, that's good..."
Nodding in agreement, Sang Qing pulled Ye Li to sit down, glancing up at Fu Yanci as she did so.
Fu Yanci stepped forward and sat down next to Ye Li.
Their eyes met, and Sang Qing looked away first, pushing the menu towards them. "Take a look and see what you'd like to eat. I don't know your tastes, so I didn't order in advance..."
The words "I don't know your tastes" made Sang Qing feel even more heartbroken and her eyes even hotter.
She owes Fu Yanci too much!
Fu Yanci took the menu and ordered dishes according to his and Ye Li's tastes.
The waiter left.
The private room quieted down.
Before Sang Qing could think of what to say, Ye Li spoke up, "Mom, how long do you plan to stay in Milan? Fu Yanci and I are going back to the capital the day after tomorrow. What about you? When are you going to come back to see us?"
"I……"
When she tried to speak, she realized her throat was terribly blocked, and Sang Qing subconsciously glanced at Fu Yanci.
Seeing that he neither refuted Ye Li's words nor showed any resistance to Ye Li's question, Sang Qing said softly, "I, I'll go back to Paris in a few days. As for the capital... I'll wait a while, and after I go back to the studio to hand over my work, I'll go back to see you."
"Okay! We'll wait for you in the capital!"
Ye Li nodded, then suddenly remembered something and nudged Fu Yanci.
Fu Yanci picked up the bag from under the table and handed it to Sang Qing, "This is a gift from Ali and me to you!"
I'd like to accept it, but I'm sorry.
If they didn't accept it, they were afraid of hurting Fu Yanci and Ye Li's feelings.
Sang Qing was stunned.
Ye Li took the bag, took out the black gift box inside, and handed it to Sang Qing. "Quickly see if you like it!"
Inside, a jade bracelet.
Sang Qing recognized it at a glance; it was the exquisite imperial green bracelet that had fetched a record price at a New York auction that year.
"This won't do, this is too..." expensive!
Even though she knew it was nothing to Fu Yanci, a mother always hopes that her child will spend every penny on her.
Before Sang Qing could finish her refusal, she met Fu Yanci's gaze. "Keep it. This... is a pair with the one you used to wear!"
Sang Qing was stunned, and tears streamed down her face.
When she left that year, Sang Qing took nothing with her.
The enormous inheritance left to her by Fu Zhengyan.
Fu's shares.
Sang Qing left everything to Fu Yanci.
She was carrying only a small leather suitcase, some personal clothes, and the jade bracelet from her jewelry box.
There was only one bracelet; it was bought back by Fu Zhengyan at a high price and given to Sang Qing as a token of their love.
When Sang Qing received news that another bracelet might appear at a New York auction, she went there as well. However, in the end, the bracelet was sold for a near-astronomical price of one billion.
Sang Qing had regretted not being able to pair up with the one in her vanity case.
But if she missed it, it meant she was not meant to have that bracelet.
Perhaps, those two bracelets, destined never to be a pair, were just like her and Fu Zhengyan, destined to be separated by life and death.
And at that moment, the bracelet appeared right in front of her.
It was still through Fu Yanci's hands.
He remembers that she was wearing this bracelet when she left when he was two years old.
Does this mean that he has never forgotten her all these years?
“Dislike of words…”
Because of a bracelet, Sang Qing's emotions instantly broke down. "I'm so sorry! It's all my fault, I, I..."
