The next day.
In recent days, Chen Guiwu has been busy at the Chamber of Commerce again, but Sheng Wu continues to eat and drink.
A few days ago, she was kept in the main courtyard by Chen Guiwu to recuperate, and she rarely left the main courtyard. Today, the weather was good, so she went out of the main courtyard and wandered around.
He held a pair of large scissors in his hand, which he used to trim branches.
So, she calculated the time and happened to meet Shen Qinghuan who was returning from school this afternoon. She hadn't seen him since the day she fell into a coma.
Sheng Wu glanced casually and instantly met Shen Qinghuan's gaze.
She felt an inexplicable tightness in her heart, and stopped trimming the grass. She looked at Shen Qinghuan in a daze, somewhat at a loss.
In fact, Shen Qinghuan just kissed her that day and did nothing else. Shen Qinghuan knew that this was not right, so she hugged Sheng Wu and jumped directly into the lake, using the cool water to dissipate the medicinal properties in Sheng Wu's body.
Afraid that Sheng Wu Zhongyao didn't have enough strength to drown, Shen Qinghuan held Sheng Wu and stayed in the water with her for more than half an hour.
Why are you returning to the Shen residence so late?
However, Shen Qinghuan didn’t know how much Sheng Wu remembered about what happened at the lake that day.
For a moment, the two of them looked at each other, feeling inexplicably awkward and agitated, and opened their eyes subconsciously.
But Shen Qinghuan knew that this was not a solution, so she took the initiative to step forward and came in front of Sheng Wu.
"Hello, stepmother..."
The girl's cold face relaxed slightly, she was dressed in a heroic makeup, her long hair was tied into a high ponytail, her lips were naturally red without a trace of rouge, and her heroic face had a kind of beauty that was difficult to tell whether it was male or female.
Especially Shen Qinghuan's brown pupils, which seemed to have an exotic charm.
I don’t know if it was Sheng Wu’s illusion, but she always felt that Shen Qinghuan’s way of addressing her today seemed a little different, but she couldn’t tell what the feeling was.
Sheng Wu smiled and nodded, "Qing Huan is back."
Her bright face was extremely beautiful under the sunlight, and there was a soft light in her eyes whenever she looked at anything, giving people the illusion that her eyes were full of affection.
Seeing that she didn't mention what happened that day, but was a little restrained towards herself, Shen Qinghuan raised her eyebrows and took a step forward.
"How are you?"
She suddenly closed the distance, and the shadow of the person who was already taller than her suddenly fell on her. Sheng Wu breathed lightly, and her fingertips tightened around the scissors.
Qianqian smiled and said, "I'm much better now, otherwise Guiwu wouldn't be willing to let me out."
Meeting Sheng Wu's gaze from a very close distance, Shen Qinghuan's sight naturally fell on her cherry-red lips. She couldn't help but think of the scene on the boat that day, and her eyes dimmed.
Then he moved his throat as if nothing had happened and nodded.
"That's good. Lying down all the time isn't good either. You should move around more."
Sheng Wu nodded obediently, "Yes, I know."
There was nothing to say to each other again. It seemed as if there was an invisible thing spreading, making them feel cramped and awkward.
In the end, it was Sheng Wu who broke the deadlock. She suddenly raised her eyes and said something seriously.
"Qinghuan, I'm sorry. I dragged you down that day."
This was referring to the fact that Shen Qinghuan almost knelt down to Zhang Feng in order to save her.
But she started by apologizing. Was she trying to draw a line?
Shen Qinghuan paused as he looked at her, then looked up and spoke coldly as if nothing had happened.
"It's okay. There's nothing wrong with worshiping a dead person." Isn't it? Zhang Feng is already dead.
Sheng Wu knew that she was trying to alleviate her guilt, so she lowered her eyes slightly, with heartache and worry in her eyes.
"Then Gui Wu didn't say anything to you, did he?"
"No." Shen Qinghuan, "Father just asked me a few simple questions. I picked out some things to talk about, and he didn't ask any more questions."
After picking out some things to talk about, Sheng Wu realized that she had not told Shen Guiwu those details.
Then there was silence between them again.
Finally, it was Shen Qinghuan who suddenly spoke.
"If you want to leave one day, you can come to me again." A serious statement.
After saying that, she seemed to notice Sheng Wu's unnaturalness and embarrassment, and turned and left after leaving a word.
"clear......"
Sheng Wu opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't know what to say.
In the end, I could only watch Shen Qinghuan's back disappearing around the corner.
So she could only sigh softly, put away her thoughts, and then continued to use the big scissors to trim the branches among the flowers.
When she turned around, she just didn't see a piece of clothing hem in the corner.
Shen Qinghuan had been waiting for several days and wanted to go to the main courtyard to meet someone but had no courage. When he came back in the afternoon and heard the servants say that Sheng Wu was pruning branches here, he immediately rushed over to see her.
But when they met, she didn't know what to say.
She seemed to have forgotten what she said and did on the boat that day...
Shen Qinghuan's cold brown pupils were fixed on the busy figure in the flowers. She was like a peeping pervert. Her slightly cold eyes were tinged with suppressed emotions. The uncontrollable throbbing in her heart seemed to come alive the moment she saw her.
The joints of her bones turned white from being tightly gripped. Shen Qinghuan knew that this was wrong. Not to mention others, her father and elder brother were already in such a mess at home. If she got involved, Sheng Wu's situation would probably be even more embarrassing.
But, what she said that day, that she liked her...was it true?
Shen Qinghuan clenched his teeth, his face cold and pale, his thoughts in a mess.
Finally, he sighed softly, looked at Sheng Wu's back with a complex and deep look, then turned and left.
She needs to calm down.
A few seconds after Shen Qinghuan left, Sheng Wu, who seemed to be busy tending to the flowers, stopped what she was doing, then stood up and looked at the blind spot where Shen Qinghuan was standing just now, as if she had expected it.
Her rosy lips curled up slightly. There were already two fish, and there was still some left.
Sinking willow.
