Chapter 113
Shen Yizhi seemed to understand, "But, telling you will only make you worry, right?"
Telling them will only cause them more trouble.
Everyone has their own life. Before Ms. Tan Huiya was her mother, she was also herself and had her own life.
Before Pei Yanhe became her boyfriend, he had already made a name for himself in the financial field.
So, she didn't want her affairs to take up their time and cause them to worry.
Pei Yanhe looked at her quietly.
Those sparkling peach blossom eyes were calm and seemed to be able to see through her thoughts at a glance.
"Shen Yizhi."
He spoke very slowly and softly, "The essence of love is care, not burden."
Don't be afraid to cause them trouble.
Maybe tell them to share the burden together, that's what family is.
Chen Yizhi lowered her eyes, her fingertips twirling the hem of his dark silk pajamas, as if she finally understood the meaning behind his words, and said sullenly.
"So Ms. Tan Huiya is angry and won't let me go out because she's too concerned about my injury?"
Pei Yanhe stared at her thin eyelids, through which blood vessels could be seen, and said, "It's self-blame."
Shen Yizhi didn’t understand, so he raised his eyes and frowned.
Pei Yanhe smoothed her brows with his fingertips and said slowly, "I blame myself for not taking good care of you, for not being careful enough, and for not noticing something was wrong with you the first time."
When you love someone, the first thing that comes before anger is a heart full of bitterness.
The moon is high in the sky, the night is deep and quiet, and the world seems to be filled with only the chirping of insects and birds.
Shen Yizhi was bewildered for a moment, and blinked lightly, "Then, Pei Shanshan, are you the same?"
"You...are my family too, right?"
Pei Yanhe's eyes, like a clear pond, reflected her shadow clearly. "Always."
From the moment they were born, from the moment his surname was Pei and her surname was Chen.
They were meant to be family.
The kind that can never be cut off or severed.
Shen Yizhi put her hands around his neck, buried her head in it, and tears seemed to well up in her eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Pei Yanhe felt a heat on his neck, which penetrated the silk fabric and stuck to his skin.
He patted her back gently, his tone somewhat helpless, "Why are you crying?"
Shen Yizhi couldn't stop her tears at all. Like a bursting dam, they gradually flooded over her nose and swallowed her up so much that she didn't even have time to speak.
I didn't expect her to cry like this.
Pei Yanhe didn't know how to coax or comfort anyone. He just patted her back again and again to help her calm down.
Hearing her sobbing body twitching, his heart twisted unconsciously, "Stop crying, okay?"
After a long time, Shen Yizhi recovered a little, sniffed, and choked: "I'm sorry."
"Pei Shanshan, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for Mommy."
I'm sorry for causing worry to those who love her.
Pei Yanhe regretted telling her this. He looked at the dimly flickering desk lamp and spoke softly.
"There's no need to apologize among family members."
Shen Yizhi buried his head in the crook of his neck, his hot breath burning him.
She said in a muffled voice, "From now on, I won't make you worry anymore."
Pei Yanhe pinched her earlobe with his fingertips, and her tense nerves relaxed. Instead of responding, he spoke.
"Don't get hurt again in the future."
This is his only wish.
Only one.
God did not favor him when he was ten years old, and after that he felt resentful and no longer longed for God's protection.
And now, he hopes that good luck will come to the one he loves.
He prayed that his wish would come true.
The room was dark, with only a dim light shining on the two people who were leaning against each other.
They clung to each other, their hearts beating in unison.
After a while, Shen Yizhi said, “Okay, I promise you.”
Pei Yanhe's eyelashes drooped, "Don't cheat."
Shen Yizhi closed his eyes and listened to his rhythmic heartbeat, "Okay."
-
After knowing the real reason why Ms. Tan Huiya was angry.
Adhering to the principle that the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it.
Shen Yizhi took the initiative and searched around his house before finding the person in the back garden.
Tan Huiya was wearing a light blue long dress with her long hair half tied up behind her head. The years had left only an increasingly calm and gentle expression on her face.
Many times, Shen Yizhi's temperament is very similar to Tan Huiya's.
Even the stubbornness in their bones is exactly the same.
When she was young, Ms. Tan Huiya refused to listen to her family and get married early. She disobeyed her elders and went to Kyoto alone to make a living. She plunged into her favorite art exhibition career, and after years of hard work, she finally became a top figure in the field.
This is the kind of person Shen Yizhi has always wanted to be.
She has been hurt and hit rock bottom, but she always gets back up.
Just because she has a great mother.
"Why are you standing there like an idiot?" Tan Huiya glanced at her indifferently.
Shen Yizhi came back to her senses, walked forward with a smile, and hugged her arm affectionately as always.
"Mommy, I was wrong, can you forgive me?"
Tan Huiya kept watering the potted plants. "What's wrong?"
Shen Yizhi said truthfully: "I was wrong to hide it from you, I shouldn't have made you so worried, and I was wrong to bargain with you yesterday."
Tan Huiya was not very angry to begin with, and she couldn't blame her for her frank tone.
She put down the spray bottle and carefully held her wrist: "Tell Mommy the truth, does it hurt?"
Shen Yizhi was about to shake her head, but then she thought of Pei Yanhe's words, nodded heavily, and said coquettishly: "It hurts, it hurts so much, Mommy."
"Please rub it for me, it will be fine after rubbing it."
Tan Huiya knitted her brows together and rubbed her wrist with less force. "Are you doing your rehabilitation training well every day?"
"Of course!" Shen Yizhi muttered, "Pei Shanshan is like being put under some kind of system. He supervises me at the right time every day. It's hard for me not to do my best."
Tan Huiya laughed, "It seems that I don't need to worry about Xiao He anymore as long as he is here."
Shen Yizhi suddenly smiled even more flatteringly and said, "Mommy, can my ban be lifted?"
Tan Huiya glanced at the figure gradually approaching behind her, then looked at her again, "Mommy asks you, did your dad know about this before me?"
Shen Dongliang, who had just stepped into the back garden, paused, and a chill inexplicably rose on his back.
Shen Yizhi didn't notice anything unusual at all, but just guessed that if she answered "yes", Shen Dongliang's life would definitely be difficult.
So out of her caring conscience, she said nonchalantly, "No, Dad just found out."
Tan Huiya was half-believing and half-doubting.
Shen Dongliang breathed a sigh of relief silently, and hurried forward to interrupt the two people's conversation.
“Zhizhi, don’t hide things from your parents in the future.” He said, and patted Shen Yizhi’s shoulder earnestly.
Shen Yizhi glared at him unhappily and said in a deliberately sarcastic tone, "I know, my good father."
