Chapter 294: Three Treasures in One Birth: My Sweet Wife (41)

There was a moment of silence in the atmosphere. Li Jingyuan's eyes were slightly absent-minded, as if he was lost in past memories.

"Li Jingyuan, why did you steal my book? I'm going to tell your dad!"

"Why do you always fight? Don't you feel pain when you get hurt?"

"What bad things have you done again! Li Jingyuan!"

"Li Jingyuan, any girl who likes you must be a fool, always worrying about you."

The memories and conversations between them jumped one sentence at a time in Li Jingyuan's mind.

Suddenly I remembered that when they were about to graduate from high school, a group of playboys in the school discussed Lu Qian's appearance and figure, and said some ugly and dirty words.

Li Jingyuan has been a devil since he was young. He is not afraid of heaven or earth and dares to provoke or beat anyone.

He likes Lu Qian, so how could he tolerate others speaking like that about the person he likes?

So he rushed up and started fighting with the group of playboys.

Li Jingyuan was never afraid of crowds, and all the playboys he beat were sent to the hospital.

But after all, the other side had more people, and Li Jingyuan was also admitted to the hospital.

When Lu Qian came to take care of him, he said this.

How did Li Jingyuan respond?

He was young and frivolous at the time, and couldn't help but feel embarrassed to hear the person he liked say such things. He said stubbornly: "Humph, girls like me, who said I like girls!"

After he said this, he remembered that Lu Qian was a little stunned.

Although she continued to take care of him after coming to her senses, she was obviously dazed from time to time.

But he was young and didn't pay any attention to these.

He was only thinking, why did Lu Qian say those things, is he that bad, if she... knew that he liked her, would she reject him immediately?

And then, Li Jingyuan, who had been fearless since childhood, was frightened, completely frightened.

He became the person he used to despise the most, the one who didn't even dare to tell the person he liked that he liked.

Li Jingyuan raised his hands and grabbed his hair. His father was right. It was all his fault. It was his fault for being so reckless when he was young. But he was young and reckless, and he was also cowardly and unable to take responsibility.

Otherwise, he and Qianqian wouldn't have missed each other like this.

Li Jingyuan's eyes were a little red. He thought he had forgotten these things a long time ago, but in fact he had not forgotten them... not at all.

Li Jingyuan moved his hands down and covered his eyes, trying not to appear so embarrassed in front of Shen Ci.

Shen Ci didn't say anything while he was crying.

Logically speaking, Shen Ci should have comforted Li Jingyuan and said something to make him feel less upset.

But Li Jingyuan is not a child. After all, they are all adults. He understands the principles, but whether he wants to let go of some things depends on himself.

So for Li Jingyuan, he actually didn't need any comfort at all.

Shen Ci picked up the cup and tested the temperature of the coffee with the tip of her tongue. During the time she was talking to Li Jingyuan, the coffee had already cooled down.

She no longer had to drink carefully and just took a sip.

Li Jingyuan stopped crying only after Shen Ci finished half the cup of coffee.

"Sorry." These two words were the first words Li Jingyuan uttered after he stopped crying.

Shen Ci shook his head: "You don't have to be so polite."

"I didn't expect it. I really didn't expect it. Over the years, even though I kept saying that I had let it go, I still think about the past from time to time. I wonder if I hadn't been so reckless and arrogant at the time, thinking that bullying meant love, and if I had treated her gently, would the ending between us be different?"

"Now that I think about it, yes. I was really disgusting at that time. I pushed your mother away with my own hands."

Li Jingyuan had tried his best to suppress his emotions, but when he spoke about it, tears could not help but flow down his cheeks.

Shen Ci didn't know how to respond. She felt that she understood Li Jingyuan's feelings.

Because once...she and the man, because of her own cowardice, also missed each other.

But the biggest difference between her and Li Jingyuan is probably...

Meng Yuan really loved her and had always been chasing after... her.

"Uncle Li, can I ask you a question?" Shen Ci asked suddenly.

Li Jingyuan nodded: "You ask."

"This question may be a little presumptuous, but I'm really curious, Uncle Li, why did you leave the country in the first place?" Shen Ci stared into Li Jingyuan's eyes.

Li Jingyuan, who was originally feeling sad, was stunned for a moment. After coming to his senses, he lowered his eyes and asked: "Why do you ask this question so suddenly?"

"Because I have a hunch." Shen Ci said honestly.

"Intuition?" Li Jingyuan was very confused.

"Yes, intuition, this intuition may have something to do with Li Cheng, and it can help me to deal with him." Shen Ci smiled, revealing his badness without any concealment.

Li Jingyuan couldn't help it and was stunned for a moment. Then he smiled bitterly: "Siyu girl, you really don't hide it."

"Didn't you say you would help me, Uncle Li? Since you said so, I regard you as someone I trust, so there's no need to be polite."

The four words "trusted person" made Li Jingyuan's heart tremble. He couldn't help but give all the truth to Shen Ci, which his grandfather had never revealed.

This matter is indeed related to Li Cheng, but not to Li Cheng himself, but to Li Cheng's mother, Wu Yurong.

About thirteen years ago, the original Lu Siyu was only five years old.

On the surface, Li Jingyuan had gotten over it, but in his heart he had not completely gotten over it. He laughed and joked during the day, but went to the bar to get drunk at night. He got drunk every day and then went back to the Li family's old house.

At that time, the Li family still lived together.

His younger brother is very impressive. Although we won’t talk about his personality, he is indeed a workaholic.

I won't go home unless I work until 2 a.m. every day.

At that time, my sister-in-law Wu Yurong sat in the living room every day, waiting very late.

At first, Li Jingyuan thought she was waiting for his younger brother Li Xian, and he felt quite emotional, thinking that it was strange that his younger brother Li Xian, with such a wife, would come home so late every day.

Once when he returned home, Li Jingyuan couldn't help but joke with Wu Yurong, saying: "Lie Xian is really a fool, he doesn't understand your heart at all."

Who would have thought that Wu Yurong would lower his eyes and say sadly: "It's not him who is the fool, it's you who is the fool."

Li Jingyuan was so drunk that he didn't notice anything was wrong. He said, "I'm an idiot? How could I be an idiot? My brother is the idiot. You wait for him to come home every day, but he doesn't understand your thoughts. Come back early every day."

Wu Yurong suddenly raised his head, looked at him with burning eyes, and said: "I'm not waiting for him to come home."

"Ah, if you are not waiting for him to come home, then who are you waiting for to come home?" If Li Jingyuan could travel back in time, he would quickly cover his mouth to remind himself not to ask this question.
