"my father?"
Su Yun's eyes froze in disbelief.
She mechanically repeated An Chengling's words, and after a long while she raised her lips to look at him, her voice trembling: "Lawyer An, don't make such jokes..."
The sunlight penetrated into the dark clouds, and An Chengling looked at her in the shadows, suddenly feeling a little distressed.
Such a thin and fragile figure is constantly experiencing major turning points in life.
He couldn't even imagine that after so many years and so much time...
How did she get through it?
If the truth behind the Su Group is as she has investigated, what will this extremely gentle woman do?
He closed his eyes and sighed softly.
"Lawyer An, so...what exactly is going on?"
Su Yun had calmed down again and looked at him with a forced smile.
As if expecting him to say he was only joking.
"Ms. Su, I..."
An Chengling made up his mind and was about to tell the results of his recent investigation when he was interrupted.
"Yun'er!"
“Why are you here!?”
Sheng Huai stood at the door, looking disheveled, his neatly ironed striped shirt now wrinkled and crumpled into a ball.
The chin of his coat was covered in dust, and even his hair was sticky with hops.
No doubt it was done by Jiang's father.
He took a step forward, pushed An Chengling aside, grabbed Su Yun's shoulders tightly with both hands, and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Yun'er! I'm sorry, I know everything, I know everything!"
"It's my husband's fault!... Come home with me."
“Please!”
Su Yun let him hold her tightly. The gentle smile in her eyes just now had been replaced by a hint of annoyance, and her face was full of displeasure.
An Chengling looked at Su Yun with deep eyes, turned around silently, and left the corridor.
"Yun'er, it turns out to be you..."
"It turns out it was you all along!"
With red eyes and hoarse voice, Sheng Huai called Su Yun's name over and over again.
"Su Yun!"
"Su Yun!"
"Forgive me! Forgive me!"
“Let go!”
Su Yun's tone was cold. She forcefully pried open his hand on her shoulder, her eyes turning cold.
She looked at him, her red lips pressed into a straight line, and after a moment she sneered, "What is Mr. Sheng doing?"
"I don't!"
“I didn’t act!”
Sheng Huai raised his hand to pull her hand again, but his hand was empty.
There was a look of sadness on his face, as if he was asking for help from his wife in front of him.
Begging for Su Yun’s mercy.
"sorry!"
"Xiao Yun, I just found out, I really just found out!"
Sheng Huai looked haggard, completely lacking the arrogant and domineering attitude he once had.
"Mr. Sheng!"
Su Yun frowned slightly, her eyes full of impatience. She took a deep breath and barely suppressed her disgust, sneering:
"Are you done yet? What shameless excuse have you come up with this time?"
"Shameless?"
Sheng Huai paused and smiled bitterly.
"Xiao Yun, it's all my fault. I only now realize that it was you who saved me back then..."
"Everything is just a misunderstanding. It's all my fault. Can you... forgive me?"
His voice was extremely gentle, and he almost begged: "Mrs. Sheng, as long as you come back, we can be like before..."
"No! It's much, much better than before."
"I have a lot of money, I can give you status, you can have whatever you want!"
His gentle voice seemed to be stuck in his throat, sour and hoarse: "Yun'er, let's go back to the past, okay?"
Sheng Huai looked into her cold eyes for a long time.
It seems like he wants to wait for the answer he expects.
After a long time, he finally saw a slim and determined figure.
Su Yun put out the cigarette, turned around and left without saying a word.
"Yun'er!"
"You can't leave me!"
Sheng Huai hurriedly chased out and stood in the corridor growling hoarsely. His voice became more and more urgent, and finally it was almost a roar.
But the figure didn't look back.
The reporter who was blocked by An Chengling pressed the shutter button frantically, capturing all of Mr. Sheng's embarrassing postures.
Su Yun entered the ward and drew all the curtains.
The investigation results about Su Group and the man outside the door both made her upset!
…
Outside the door, Sheng Huai stood straight.
Wait for Su Yun to open the door.
It was not until dusk that An Chengling sent all the reporters away and strode up to him.
He was somewhat surprised by Sheng Huai's current appearance.
The whole person seemed to have his soul sucked out, standing there like a dead tree, with no expression on his face.
"Go back."
An Chengling patted his shoulder gently.
He remained motionless, still looking at the door.
"I want to explain to Xiaoyun. She has the most gentle and sensible personality and will definitely forgive me."
By the end, the voice had begun to tremble.
"Mrs. Sheng is gentle and sensible..."
An Chengling took over his words with a gloomy look in his eyes: "But Sheng Huai, you forgot that her gentleness and understanding are based on her care for you!"
"She is gentle and sensible because she loves you, not because she owes you anything!"
An Chengling's words made Sheng Huai's expression blank for a moment.
He did not refute. All the emotions were stirring in his heart now, and it was difficult to remain as calm as before.
"I just wanted her to open the door and look at me."
His tone was desolate: "I want to... take her home."
In the ward.
Su Mingan pulled open a corner of the curtain, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
He wanted to persuade his daughter to open the door and communicate with Sheng Huai, but when he saw An Chengling outside, he gave up the idea.
He didn't know why, but every time he saw Lawyer An, who was famous both at home and abroad, he felt inexplicably nervous.
Su Yun sank comfortably into the sofa with her long legs crossed. She spent the entire afternoon playing games and didn't care about what happened in the afternoon at all.
The setting sun hid in the clouds, and the dark hospital corridor was lit up with white light.
An Chengling left first with a complicated expression.
For the entire day, Sheng Huai stood motionless at the door of the ward.
He didn't feel tired at all, and all he saw and thought about were scenes from the past.
The scene with Su Yun.
In the sunshine, Su Yun played the piano for him in a cotton skirt.
In the moonlight, I endured the embarrassment and helplessness in order to please him.
Eyes that turn red from crying secretly when you are wronged.
His vision finally went blurry.
turn out to be……
The stupidest person is myself!
The one who deserves to die the most is myself!
The person I love and care about the most has always been by my side, but I have pushed him further and further away...
It was not until midnight that the door of the ward was finally opened.
Su Yun stood quietly, with her long hair loose and a cold look in her eyes.
"Mr. Sheng!"
"Don't you have any self-respect?"
Sheng Huai looked at her steadily, their eyes met, and she quickly looked away.
"Xiao Yun..."
He raised his hands, wanting to hug the body he had hugged countless times.
But he was avoided with a look of disgust.
"Mrs. Sheng, do you hate me so much?"
Su Yun raised her eyes to meet his gaze and sneered.
"Sheng Huai, if you still have half a heart..."
"You shouldn't have bothered me when my mother was seriously ill!"
Harassment.
It turned out that my explanation to save the relationship was just harassment in her eyes!
Sheng Huai curled the corners of his lips bitterly.
When he spoke again, he was calm.
"Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow, okay?"
The answer he got was the cold sound of a door closing.
