Chapter 240 Extra 5: A Lifetime of Love
Many years have passed in a flash, time flies, and the black hair has turned into white hair.
The children grew up and left home, the elders passed away one after another, and the old friends became cold graves. The huge Repulse Bay only became lively during the holidays.
The villa, which has been renovated countless times, is deserted every day, but it still retains its warmth.
After all, the people living there are still as loving as they were decades ago, taking walks and chatting every day, watering flowers and planting grass, playing chess for fun, and playing the piano for each other.
The days go by little by little, but time seems to have not changed.
The once strong and tall Jiang Shibai and the graceful Xu Xian gradually grew old in the torrent of time, their backs gradually hunched over, and their steps slowed down.
The gorgeous red roses in the garden are still as enchanting as they were in the past. On the swing chair covered with wisteria, two old people with silver hair snuggle together, fingers clasped together, feeling the warmth of the sun shining on their bodies.
Jiang Shibai's handsome features can still be vaguely seen under the wrinkled skin, with the sharp outline still visible. His eyes are very gentle, as if he is looking at roses in the distance, or as if he is recalling her among the rose bushes.
His voice became older, but it still couldn't hide the same doting as before.
"Mrs. Jiang, it seems like we have been sitting here for a long, long time."
It lasted so long that I could see the end.
No matter how well Xu Xian takes care of herself, she cannot resist the traces left by the years. Wrinkles bloom on her face, but she is still very beautiful. It is in line with the saying that beauty lies in the bones, not in the skin, and time can never defeat beauty.
She rested her head gently on his slightly thin arm and said in a gentle voice, "I hope that in my next life, I can still sit with Mr. Jiang and watch the flowers, the snow, the scenery, and you."
Jiang Shibai tilted his head slightly, his indifferent eyes lost their former coldness and became blurred. His lips carefully touched the silver hair and left a gentle kiss.
"Me too." His voice was vague, but his tone was firm. "Mrs. Jiang, I love you."
She was the only one in his life from beginning to end.
A pair for life.
"Mr. Jiang, I love you too. Remember...wait for me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xian's head felt heavy, and his unclear eyes were covered with a layer of mist, making his vision even more blurred.
The fiery red roses swayed in the breeze, becoming the only scenery in her eyes.
The dusk light lengthened the shadows of the two people who were inseparable, and the afterglow of the sunset was slowly swallowed by the darkness.
The sunset fades away and the sunrise is on its way.
