When Shang Boyu came back, it was already half past ten.
Meng Sheng was eating the midnight snack made by Aunt Zhang.
Joanna bought a lot of snacks in the afternoon and ate quite a lot of them. So she had no appetite in the evening and felt hungry after ten o'clock.
When she heard the sound of a car engine outside, her hand paused.
I know that Shang Boyu has returned.
After a while, Shang Boyu appeared in her sight.
After only a two-second pause, she smiled. "You're back. Did you drink? I asked Aunt Zhang to prepare some hangover soup for you. Drink a bowl while it's hot..."
Shang Boyu glanced at her gentle, bright and beautiful face and was stunned on the spot.
The guilt that had briefly cooled down surged towards him again like a tide, almost drowning him.
What is he doing?
Why should I still sympathize and feel sorry for Ning Weiwei?
Shengsheng is so nice and considerate to him, and she is pregnant. How could he have the idea of continuing to contact Ning Weiwei?
Meng Sheng looked at him motionlessly, her peach blossom eyes behind the lenses filled with self-contempt and extreme shame.
I immediately knew what he was thinking.
That's it. On the one hand, I feel guilty towards her, but on the other hand, I can't bear to leave Ning Weiwei.
His heart was broken just right.
Half is with her, and half is with Ning Weiwei.
It doesn't matter anymore.
What she wanted now was his guilt towards her.
But this guilt alone is far from enough to make her sell her shares in Yueqifang.
She quickly suppressed the emotion in her eyes and walked over. The smile on her face turned into worry. "What's wrong? You're still standing here in a daze."
Shang Boyu came back to his senses and murmured, "Wife, I'm sorry..."
Meng Sheng's heart sank.
His "I'm sorry" was like a handful of salt and a handful of chili powder, sprinkled endlessly on her heart.
It hurts, and it’s jarring.
She frowned and looked at him suspiciously, "Why do I feel like you've been saying sorry to me all the time recently? Have you done anything to let me down? Do you have someone else out there?"
When Shang Boyu heard this, his heart seemed to be deeply touched by something.
He smiled helplessly again, "I really didn't do that, as the sun and the moon can attest. I was just thinking about you being pregnant, and I had a few drinks at a social gathering that night. I smelled of alcohol, and I was afraid you couldn't stand it."
Meng Sheng did smell the alcohol on him. He wrinkled his nose and subconsciously took a few steps back.
"Then drink the hangover soup first, and then go upstairs to wash up."
Her disgusted expression was so obvious that Shang Boyu was so angry that he almost laughed. If it were usual times, he would have to hug her and deliberately stink at her.
But she is pregnant now and can't do that.
His eyes were filled with laughter, and the guilt slowly faded away. "Okay, I'll listen to you. You eat first."
Aunt Zhang brought out the sobering soup, and he drank it in one gulp before going upstairs to change his clothes.
Meng Sheng withdrew his gaze and the smile on his face faded a little. The shrimp wontons in the bowl seemed to have no taste.
He suppressed the nausea in his heart, took a few casual bites, and asked Aunt Zhang to take the bowl away.
When I was about to go upstairs, the phone in my bag suddenly rang.
bite!
[Ning Weiwei's mother will arrive in Jing City tomorrow afternoon. It was Yu Qionghua who revealed the address of Yuelan Mansion to her mother. Her mother decided to take Ning Weiwei back to Jing'an City to get married. The marriage partner has been selected, and he is an elementary school teacher.]
When Meng Sheng saw this content, he was shocked and astonished.
His eyes widened slightly.
Ning Weiwei expected her mother to come to Beijing.
But he never expected that he would bring Ning Weiwei back to get married, and he even found a marriage partner.
Yu Qionghua is still too cruel.
Ning Weiwei's reputation in Beijing was completely ruined, making it impossible for her to stay here. She had no choice but to return to her hometown and follow her parents' arrangements.
Ning Weiwei's parents would definitely not allow such a shameful thing to escalate.
Taking Ning Weiwei back home to get married now would be a good way to cover up the shame.
But...is Ning Weiwei the kind of person who would give in so much?
She may not necessarily go back and get married obediently.
The superior life she has now is not something an elementary school teacher can afford.
People are used to enjoying a good life. If they go back to the past, even if their life was not bad, there will be a big gap.
This villa, luxury car, brand-name bags and jewelry that he has lived in and used for more than a year are enough to nourish Daning's slight vanity.
Even if she wants to go back, she won't give up these things easily.
*
Ning Weiwei had been waiting eagerly at Yuelan Mansion since eight o'clock, and until half past ten, it was still quiet outside the villa.
A crescent moon hangs in the cold night sky, emitting a faint silver glow, making the quiet and luxurious villa community seem a bit cold and desolate.
Ning Weiwei sat on the sofa in the living room, taking deep breaths and comforting herself in her heart.
What if he was on his way?
My heart calmed down for more than ten minutes, and then it started to boil again.
After eleven o'clock, she finally couldn't sit still anymore, so she picked up her phone and called Shang Boyu.
It may show that the call cannot be made.
Same as the previous two days.
She is still on his blacklist.
Ning gritted her teeth slightly, and her knuckles turned slightly white as she gripped the phone.
Time passed minute by minute, and she sat there with her nerves tense until half past two. The calmness and serenity she had maintained for several hours were torn apart by the knife of reality, and she went completely crazy.
She knew that Shang Boyu would not come.
He broke his promise again.
Obviously... obviously I had already promised her.
Why?
Why on earth?!
Was the purpose of this afternoon to drive her away?
Ning Weiwei's tears fell again, and surging anger and hatred filled her blood and cells. Finally, she swept the set of cups on the table to the ground as if to vent her anger.
This night was still a sleepless night for her.
After getting angry, she sat on the sofa in the living room all night until the sky began to turn pale and a thin ray of light filtered through the gaps in the thick curtains into the dark room.
Perhaps she was tired from sitting, so Ning Weiwei didn’t go upstairs and fell asleep on the sofa.
When I woke up again, I was woken up by a phone call at the security booth at the entrance of the community.
It's already past two in the afternoon.
After a stressful night, Ning Weiwei felt as if her head was crushed by something heavy when she woke up.
It hurts a lot.
She rubbed her temples, frowned when she saw the phone, suppressed the inexplicable irritation in her heart, and answered the phone.
The security guard's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Ms. Ning, there is a woman outside who claims to be your mother. I want to confirm with you."
mom?
Ning Weiwei shuddered all over, her breathing stagnated, and her sleepiness and headache completely disappeared at this moment.
impossible.
Her mother didn't even know the address of Yuelan's mansion, and it wasn't winter vacation yet, so how could she come here to find her?
Could it be that this person was hired to impersonate him again?
Thinking of the scene the day before yesterday afternoon, she became angry, clenched her fists, gritted her teeth and said, "That's not my mother!"
The security guard responded and said to the woman outside, "Ms. Ning said she doesn't know you. Leave now and don't cause any trouble, or I'll call the police."
When hanging up the phone, Ning Weiwei vaguely heard a familiar voice from the phone.
"What? Now that she lives in such a nice villa, she doesn't even want to acknowledge her mother?"
Ning was startled and suddenly cold sweat broke out on her back.
This sound...
Is mom really here?
How could...
She opened her mouth, her heart beating uncontrollably faster. The panic that came over her made her breathless. After a long while, she managed to squeeze out a sound, "Let her in..."
