Chapter 84: Bai Yueguang Resurrection
When Liu Fuying woke up, Pei Zhouwu was no longer in the room.
She got out of bed barefoot and walked around the room. After making sure that there was no one around, she sat back on the bed.
The memories before she fell asleep gradually came back to her mind. She remembered that she had said a lot of things to Pei Zhouwu, such as "I'm sorry, I miss you so much that I'll cry until dawn".
Only now did she slowly feel the bitterness, wondering if he would laugh at her in the future?
She bit her lip and struggled internally.
In fact, she knew how good Pei Zhouwu was, but the divorce was not something that could be resolved with just a few words from her.
If Chen Xiunian knew that she and Pei Zhouwu had met again, he would definitely know that Pei Zhouwu also knew whose children the two children belonged to. How could Pei Zhouwu let his children call someone else their father? Even if he kept it a secret and didn't say anything, as long as the children recognized Pei Zhouwu as their father and returned to the Pei family, based on the appearance of the two children, who could not guess the whole story.
She had an affair with Pei Zhouwu and had a child, so naturally the fact that she had cheated on Shen Xiunian would be spread.
From the very beginning, Shen Xiunian had only one request, which was not to make things public.
Divorce, recognize father, return to Pei family...
How could it be completely silent?
For the sake of the Shen family's dignity, Shen Xiunian would never agree to a divorce. Besides, he had a mother, Liu Fuying, who would go crazy if he left her, so he would definitely not agree to it.
However, if she insisted on getting a divorce, it might not be impossible as long as she was willing to give up her huge fortune.
But, is she really willing to have nothing?
She lifted her sleeves, and the red marks on her wrists caused by peanut allergy had not yet completely faded.
Are all these years of suffering really in vain?
Over the years, she has managed the Shen family's business in an orderly manner. Who is she doing this for?
"Pei Zhouwu, you can't be my adulterer for the rest of your life. It's not fair to you."
If she missed it again this time, she would really lose Pei Zhouwu forever.
That fool, who was deceived by her like this but still refused to change his mind, there is no one else as foolish as him anywhere else.
"Someone come and save me."
Liu Fuying leaned back and fell heavily.
*
After dinner, Liu Fuying went out with something in her arms.
The direction they were heading was still towards Chen Jieling's home.
Just as she was about to reach the entrance of the second alley, she suddenly turned a corner. Looking back, she saw that the servant at the door could not see where she was going, so she immediately quickened her pace and pushed through the small side door of Pei Zhouwu's house.
The room inside is where Kong Linyu lives.
It was he who brought Liu Fuying out from here in the morning, and said that if they came again in the future, they could just enter from here, the door would not be locked.
Just as she entered the door, two people appeared at the other end of the alley.
One big and one small, they are a mother and son.
The child looked to be about six or seven years old and was very well behaved.
The mother beside him was also dignified and pretty. She took her child and turned out of the alley and stopped walking, just looking in the distance in the direction of the Shen family's gate.
"Huaijun, look, that's where daddy lives."
The mother pointed ahead and squatted down beside her child, her tone filled with anticipation.
The child looked in the direction of her finger, and the two big red lanterns in front of the door reflected the longing in his eyes from afar.
"Mom, can I really see Daddy?"
"Yes, very soon."
"Now? Shall we go in and find Daddy now?"
His mother was not in a hurry to answer, but the sadness on her face suddenly increased a lot. She touched her son's face and looked at him tenderly.
"Don't be anxious, Huaijun. Now is not the best time. In two days, it will be mother's 'death anniversary'. At that time, your father will definitely go out of the city to pay tribute... Then we can be with father."
"Then I can also live in that big house by then?"
"Yes, of course."
…
After Kong Linyu brought Liu Fuying to the place, he stopped outside the yard and did not enter.
"Madam, my general is in the room, please come in."
He smiled gently at Liu Fuying. Although he had not asked his general and the general had not said much, he had already guessed about 70% of it.
The two children of the Shen family, especially the little girl, look so much like his general.
Coupled with his general's unusual behavior in the past few days, he naturally guessed the relationship between Mrs. Shen and their general.
"Thank you very much."
Liu Fuying thanked him, knowing that Captain Kong played the same role as her own Jin Li, both of whom were people Pei Zhouwu could trust.
When I entered the yard, I saw Pei Zhouwu opening the door and coming out of the house.
Her face lit up with joy, and she ran towards him quickly, holding the thing in her arms. Her figure in the moonlight was as delicate and graceful as a young girl, and her hairband and earrings fluttered in the wind like her beating heart.
"Look what I got you."
She ran to Pei Zhouwu in one breath and immediately handed over the thing in her hand.
"How can you be so bold now?" Pei Zhouwu took the thing with a joking tone.
Liu Fuying could also hear that he was laughing at why she was not being sneaky anymore.
She leaned over and hooked her arm around his, saying coquettishly, "I wasn't brave enough, so I sneaked in quietly without being seen."
After saying that, she still stared at his face.
"Are you angry?" She asked deliberately as if teasing him, knowing that he hated her sneaky behavior the most.
Pei Zhouwu just raised his eyebrows and showed no anger.
He took off the cloth cover of the thing in his hand, revealing the small cylinder inside, and then glanced at her, as if he had guessed what was inside.
When I opened the lid, I saw a rolled-up piece of white paper inside.
After taking it out and spreading it out, it was indeed a painting.
The painting that Xi Xi mentioned.
The content of the painting was not much different from what Xi Xi had said. The background was a river with a small boat in the river. The person on the boat was dressed in white and looked ethereal, with a black iron chain hanging from his hands and under his feet that looked out of place. A section of the chain was exposed and hung in front of the boat, and some of it even sank in the water.
As he watched, the corners of his mouth slowly curved into a beautiful arc.
"How is it? My painting is very vivid, right?"
Pei Zhouwu looked at it carefully, and his eyes stayed on the painting for a long time.
After a long while, he replied, "You have a conscience."
I know you miss me!
Whether it is vivid or not is another matter. The painter's mood when painting can be felt from the curved lines. The background of the painting is gray, and it is as depressing as dark clouds covering a city. Only the people on the boat are bright and particularly eye-catching, which shows how much longing the painter has hidden in his heart.
"Husband."
Liu Fuying bumped into his arms again, hugged his waist and acted coquettishly.
"Husband, please don't be angry with me all the time, okay?"
Pei Zhouwu's eyes were still on the painting, as if he couldn't see enough of it, but he responded with the word "OK".
"My husband, you look so beautiful when you smile."
Pei Zhouwu turned his eyes away slightly, looked at her and asked, "Did I smile?"
"He smiled. I love seeing my husband's smiling face the most."
Suddenly, there was a sound of raindrops falling on the scroll in Pei Zhouwu's hand.
When I woke up this morning, the sky was dark and it looked like it was going to rain, and it finally rained at night.
"It's raining, come in."
Pei Zhouwu rolled up the painting again, hugged Liu Fuying, picked up the cylinder that fell at his feet, and went into the house.
Soon, the rain got heavier.
The rain continued to drizzle for several days and only slowly stopped in the early morning of the fourth day. However, the gloomy sky showed no sign of dissipating, as if a heavier rain was waiting to fall.
After breakfast, Shen Xiunian went out.
Seven years ago today was the day Jiang Susu passed away.
She died in Yunnan and her tombstone was erected outside the city.
