Chapter 23: Green in front of the grave
It turned out that today, because of this reason, he still lived in this wedding room covered with wedding characters after Madam Shen left.
Shen Sangsang just lowered his head to show that he heard it.
"You are tired today, go to bed early."
"Yeah, okay."
Shen Yuehuai put down the magazine in his hand, and Shen Sangsang naturally couldn't continue watching TV. After he put down the magazine, after a few seconds, she could only pick up the remote control and turn off the TV.
Then the lights went out and everything fell into silence.
The rain continued until dawn.
…
The next morning, Shen Sangsang woke up to a noise and subconsciously looked inside the room.
What I saw was a figure in the distance standing in front of a mirror, putting on clothes. The sky outside was already very bright.
When the man turned away from the mirror, Shen Sangsang immediately closed his eyes.
After a while, footsteps were heard in the room. Shen Sangsang just closed her eyes tighter, her hands tightly holding the quilt in her arms.
Although she couldn't see it, she felt the figure falling on her.
Time seemed to pass very slowly, and Shen Sangsang listened to the movements in the room.
The shadow fell on her for eight seconds. After eight seconds, the shadow withdrew from her, followed by the sound of footsteps fading away.
Shen Sangsang let go of the quilt in her arms, and there was no one in the room.
It wasn’t until after ten in the morning that Shen Sangsang came out of the room.
However, after she came out of the room, she stopped uncontrollably in front of the study door.
The hall downstairs was silent, without any sound of talking or even footsteps.
During those few seconds, Shen Sangsang's eyes were fixed on the door in front of him, and that door seemed to hide a huge whirlpool that attracted Shen Sangsang to it.
Her feet began to move toward that end uncontrollably.
One step, two steps, three steps, getting closer and closer.
Suddenly a voice came from behind her: "You are here——"
At this moment, as if in a vacuum world, an extremely hoarse and stuttering sound suddenly came.
It was as if a string in Shen Sangsang’s head was broken, and his mind was blank.
She turned quickly and found that the person standing behind her was a servant.
The servant was holding something in his hands and looking at her.
After Shen Sangsang saw clearly that it was a servant, her tense body relaxed instantly.
"You scared me."
She had just answered when her eyes caught something in the servant's arms and her voice stopped abruptly.
The servant looked at her repeatedly stiff expression, with a hint of confusion on his face.
However, after noticing that she had been staring at the thing in her arms, the servant hurriedly lowered his head to take a look. After a glance, the servant explained, "Oh, this is a hanging flower, also known as grave green. Today is the anniversary of Master Xiaozhou's death. The master went to Baoshan with the old lady to pay tribute early this morning. These flowers will be sent to the cemetery later. Didn't you know about this?"
Shen Sangsang moved her lips and squeezed out a word from her throat: "Oh."
The servant asked again: "Did it scare you?"
Shen Sangsang immediately withdrew her gaze from the hanging flower: "No, no, how could that be, I just think this flower is pretty."
She replied very quickly.
The servant continued, "The flowers are brightly colored. If they weren't for the green on the grave, they would be really beautiful. What a pity! She died so young..."
"You're upstairs."
A voice from the hall downstairs interrupted the servant's words.
The sound even carried a huge echo.
When Shen Sangsang heard the sound, she immediately looked downstairs.
At this moment, downstairs, Xu Jie was standing in the hall, looking at her.
