The woman's eyes widened like saucers, clearly not expecting the man to appear before her without any warning.
Dou Shiliu threw down his suitcase and rushed over in a few quick steps, pouncing directly on Shi Xuan.
"Shi Xuan! Why the hell didn't you send me a letter! I thought you'd forgotten about me!"
She wrapped her arms tightly around the man's neck. Of course, Dou Shiliu was joking. How could Shi Xuan possibly forget her so easily?
"Feel sorry"
Shi Xuan was still as taciturn as he had been three years ago; in response to her question, he could only offer an apology.
He spent three years resolving all the troubles just to ensure that there would be no problems for Dou Shiliu when they were together.
"No, you have to take me to eat something. You have no idea how long I've been eating bland, tasteless food in prison. My mouth has lost its flavor."
Dou Shiliu hugged Shi Xuan and kept acting cute, which made passersby smile kindly at them.
This couple, the woman exceptionally beautiful and the man exceptionally charming, were like a perfect match in the airport terminal, becoming the most beautiful sight.
Shi Xuan took Dou Shiliu out for a big feast.
"Juhan, you've been getting very close to Jiang Yang all these years?"
Shi Xuan calmly put down his wine glass and asked with a smile. He had someone keep an eye on Dou Shiliu's movements and knew that after he left, the little woman was in a bad mood and even went to fight.
Unexpectedly, he brought back a leader. Shi Xuan couldn't suppress his pride when he thought about it. He had been inside for so long, and no one knew better than him how reckless the prisoners were.
Dou Shiliu ate a piece of steak and exclaimed, "Meat is indeed the most delicious food in the world!"
"Jiang Yang? My little brother."
Shi Xuan's eyes flickered. Seeing the woman continue eating without a care, he felt relieved. His subordinates reported to him every day how this heartless little woman and Jiang Yang were inseparable, and he couldn't help but feel jealous.
Now we can finally be together.
"Hmm, are you going back to the Bai family?"
Upon hearing this, Dou Shiliu put down his fork, thought for a moment, and said, "Never mind."
The moment she saw Shi Xuan, she stopped caring about Bai Xiaoyi. She decided to put everything else aside and focus on staying by Shi Xuan's side.
The white ball silently rolled its eyes; the host was hopelessly addicted to male beauty.
Shi Xuan brought Dou Shiliu to his house, an ordinary dwelling, and turned on the light in the entrance hall.
The dark environment suddenly became unusually bright.
"I'm constantly on the move, so I have houses all over the place."
Shi Xuan took a pair of men's slippers from the shoe cabinet for Dou Shiliu, saying, "Make do with these for now, I'll have someone buy you new ones tomorrow."
Dou Shiliu nodded, put on the huge slippers with her small feet, and then walked into the living room.
A small place, yet it has all the essential organs.
It feels like home.
Suddenly, a photo frame appeared in front of Dou Shiliu. She picked it up and looked at it. The woman in the photo frame had curved eyes and was smiling sweetly at the camera.
Dou Shiliu glanced at it briefly and then put it down.
"Juhan, I got you my pajamas. Go take a shower first."
Shi Xuan carried a large gray bathrobe in his hand, and Dou Shiliu took it into the bathroom.
When she came out, Shi Xuan couldn't help but laugh as he looked at her. He stepped forward and looked at Dou Shiliu, whose hair was dripping wet: "I'll have someone buy a suitable bathrobe for me tomorrow."
Dou Shiliu looked as comical as a child who had stolen an adult's clothes. After Shi Xuan dried her hair, he told her to go to bed first.
Shi Xuan went to take a bath by himself.
The large bed in the room was unusually soft and springy. Dou Shiliu quickly took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed.
This is much more comfortable than that little bed in prison; Dou Shiliu bounced around for a long time.
...
When Shi Xuan came out, the woman was already fast asleep. Shi Xuan didn't use a hairdryer; he dried his hair with a towel for a long time.
After his hair dried, he went back to the big bed and held the woman in his arms. The long-lost sense of familiarity filled the emptiness in his heart.
His heart, which had been in suspense for three years, was now at ease with her by his side. He lowered his eyes and looked carefully at the sleeping woman beside him.
On her fair face, you could see a layer of fine white downy hairs, and her eyelashes were incredibly long, black, and thick.
His lips were as thin as his.
I've heard people say that people with thin lips are cold-hearted and indifferent in nature, yet he and she are so damn in love with each other.
Where does love come from?
Shi Xuan couldn't explain it either; he knew it was her the moment he saw her.
...
Dou Shiliu didn't inquire in detail about what Shi Xuan was doing. She just followed him around everywhere. For example, when they went to Paris, Shi Xuan would let her go out and have some fun in the morning while he went to discuss business.
It was a boring day. Dou Shiliu didn't go out; he just lay in his bedroom eating snacks and watching TV.
When Shi Xuan returned at night, she was still lying down.
His brows showed a hint of weariness, but seeing the woman obediently waiting for him in bed filled Shi Xuan with an extraordinary sense of satisfaction.
Dou Shiliu raised his eyelids slightly and shifted his body. "Thank you for your hard work."
Shi Xuan walked over and whispered something in her ear. Dou Shiliu's expression turned serious, and she asked uncertainly, "Are you sure?"
Shi Xuan coughed, but looked at Dou Shiliu with deep eyes: "Confirmed."
He had wanted to do this for a long time.
So Dou Shiliu turned off the bright lights.
...
Bai Xiaoyi carried a small white teddy bear downstairs, while her mother watched TV and drank tea.
Seeing his youngest daughter come down carrying the dog, he pursed his lips, put down his teacup, and waved to Bai Xiaoyi.
Bai Xiaoyi walked over carrying Teddy: "What's wrong, Mom?"
Bai's mother pulled Bai Xiaoyi over to sit down, and the teddy bear in her arms jumped down.
"Xiaoyi, the patriarch of the Ye family is about to celebrate his 70th birthday, and all the major noble families in the capital will be attending."
Bai Xiaoyi instantly understood her mother's meaning. Her eyes flickered slightly, and she said with a sweet smile, "Mom, I'll go then."
Mother Bai's smile deepened as she patted Bai Xiaoyi's delicate little hand: "This is a rare opportunity!"
The Bai family's status in Kyoto is neither high nor low. If Bai Xiaoyi marries a man of equal social standing, the Bai family will rise to a higher level.
This is what Bai's mother hoped to see.
As for Bai Juhan, they probably forgot about the woman they had schemed to imprison.
Bai Juhan accidentally killed her father, and her mother, being her stepmother, naturally wouldn't help her. In addition, with Bai Xiaoyi's interference, Bai Juhan ended up in prison that year.
They're probably all dead by now, not even a trace left.
