Chapter 134 The Exit of the Dream Is Waiting for Me
Shang Yanci lowered his eyes and looked at her: "I don't know, why?"
Pei Yuning pointed to the sky and said, "The sun is shining brightly today. Let's go out and bask in the sun. Mommy also wants to bask in the sun. I will accompany you, and the sunflower will accompany Mommy."
Shang Yanci held her in his arms and whispered, "Ningning, thank you for coming back with me."
Pei Yuning leaned on his shoulder, tears welling up in her eyes, but her voice was cheerful and sweet: "Ci Ci, I will always be with you, no matter where you go."
A few drops of water fell on her back. Pei Yuning thought it was raining at first, until she felt the temperature of the water drops. She realized they were Shang Yanci's tears. This was the first time he cried in front of her.
Shang Yanci's voice was slightly choked with sobs, with an almost unnoticeable fragility: "She could have been living happily with her parents, if it weren't for me..."
Pei Yuning raised her hand to cover his mouth, preventing him from continuing.
Shang Yanci's eyes were slightly red, and his face was stained with tears. Pei Yuning took out a tissue from her bag and gently wiped his tears. She comforted him in a very gentle voice: "Cici, Mommy wouldn't want to see you like this. She has always been there, but she has continued to accompany you in a different way. You are the concrete continuation of her life, so your grandparents have you to take care of them, and you have parents who love you. They love you, and you love them."
Pei Yuning coaxed him gently, just as he used to coax himself: "In this world, some people have deep ties with others, while others have shallow ties. You and I have shallow ties with our mother. Perhaps it is because of God's compensation that we were sent to each other to fill the gap. In this way, everything will be perfect in the future."
Shang Yanci kissed her forehead tenderly and said softly, "Well, your breasts will be round and full from now on."
Seeing that his mood had gradually calmed down, Pei Yuning wanted to tease him and make him smile, so she raised her hand and scratched her cheeks a few times, saying in a coquettish tone: "You are such a crying person. Shame on you."
Shang Yanci took her hand and replied softly, "Well, I am embarrassed."
Pei Yuning chuckled.
Shang Yanci looked at Chu Daiqi on the tombstone and whispered, "Mom, I'll bring Ningning to see you next time."
Pei Yuning waved and said with a smile, "Goodbye, Mom."
The light blue sky stretches as far as the eye can see, fluffy white clouds are floating everywhere, the parasol trees are lush, and the midsummer breeze blows past my ears.
The two held hands and slowly walked out of the cemetery.
The atmosphere in the house was a little gloomy throughout the whole day. Everyone was trying to maintain a normal mood on the surface, but it was not natural.
Shang Yanci went to the study. Perhaps only by calming down and dealing with his work could he stop thinking about the specialness of today.
Pei Yuning sat on the sofa in the bedroom, her thoughts mixed up. Finally, her gaze fell on the bedside table, where Shang Yanci's cell phone was charging.
She stood up and walked over, picked up her phone, unlocked it with her fingerprint, and clicked on WeChat, but didn't find it, so she continued to open the text messages and finally saw Jiang Xinzhi's home address.
Shang Yanci glanced at the time on his watch, turned off his computer, got up and left the study.
Pushing the door open and walking into the bedroom, Pei Yuning was sleeping on the table next to the sofa. The bedroom was air-conditioned and she was only wearing a short skirt, so it was easy for her to catch a cold.
Shang Yanci frowned slightly, walked over, picked up the blanket on the sofa, and was about to cover Pei Yuning with it. When he bent down and lowered his head, he inadvertently saw the letter in her hand.
After seeing a few key words, he looked away, put the blanket back on the sofa, closed the bedroom door quietly, and walked downstairs quickly as if he had never been there.
It was almost dinner time and the Filipino maids were bringing dinner dishes to the restaurant one by one.
When grandma saw Shang Yanci coming down, she asked, "Xiao Ci, why didn't Ningning come down with you?"
Shang Yanci: "I thought she was downstairs, grandma, please go and call her for me. If Ningning is sleeping now and I wake her up, I can comfort her. But you are another matter."
Grandma chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll go call Ningning."
Shang Yan said "hmm".
Grandma walked to the bedroom door and knocked on it: "Ningning, it's time for dinner."
Pei Yuning was awakened by her grandmother's voice after sleeping restlessly on her stomach. She rubbed her arm, glanced at the half-written letter, folded it in half and put it away, while answering the door: "Got it, grandma."
Pei Yuning stood up and opened the bedroom door: "Grandma, Ah Yan is still in the study. I'll go call him."
Grandma led her downstairs and said, "Xiao Ci went downstairs. He thought you were downstairs, so he didn't call you."
Pei Yuning said "hmm" softly. Fortunately, Shang Yanci did not enter the bedroom, otherwise he would have seen the letter she wrote.
The next afternoon.
Shang Yanci went to Sinoer Group.
Pei Yuning put the finished letter into the pearl-inlaid crane-patterned jewelry box. The rest of the dowry could be considered as additional makeup, but the pair of white jade bracelets had a different meaning, so she could not accept them.
Because she was not familiar with the routes in France, she asked the driver to take her to Jiang Xinzhi's house.
After Pei Yuning rang the doorbell, a strange man opened the door. He looked surprised for a moment, then smiled gently at her: "Come in."
She handed him the beaded crane jewelry box in her hand and said, "Please pass this to Jiang Xinzhi for me. Thank you."
After saying this, Pei Yuning turned and left.
The sun is shining and the summer breeze is not dry.
She walked around the corner with light steps, feeling so good to have nothing to do.
Pei Yuning raised her eyes inadvertently and saw Shang Yanci, who was supposed to be working at the Sinoer Group, standing next to the car she was sitting in when she came.
She suddenly realized that Shang Yanci had entered the bedroom before going downstairs yesterday evening. The reason he did not wake her up was probably because he accidentally saw the letter she wrote to Jiang Xuanzhi.
Shang Yanci looked at her, smiling, and stretched out his left hand with the wedding ring on it. The warm light of the sun fell between his fingers. He said softly, "Baby, let's go home."
Pei Yuning walked towards him, took his left hand, held Jiaoyang between his fingers, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "A Yan, I have walked out of that childhood nightmare, because you are waiting for me at the exit of the dream."
Shang Yanci held her in his arms and said tenderly, "Baby, I will always be with you. You are a brave and good child, and you were also a good child when you were young."
Jiang Xinzhi opened the jewelry box with a beaded crane pattern, took out the letter inside and unfolded itββ
"Ms. Jiang, after much consideration, I decided to write this letter.
Between us, the grace of raising someone is gone, but the grace of giving birth to someone is hard to break.
My brother and I are the flowers that bloomed on your suffering, and we are destined not to bear sweet fruit.
Thank you for giving me life, giving me my loving grandparents, dad, uncle, aunt, two brothers, and my current lover Shang Yanci.
I already know everything that happened back then. Now it is no longer a question of so-called forgiveness or inforgiveness.
It is difficult to distinguish cause and effect, I just hope you are in good health.
My brother once said that the reason why human eyes are placed in front of us is that the Creator is telling us to look forward. Looking back will only trap ourselves and is meaningless.
With the company of my husband, I gradually understood the true meaning of "eyes".
Some people have a deep mother-daughter relationship, while others have a shallow mother-daughter relationship. It's not a pity, just take it easy and let it go.
I've said goodbye to the past, and I hope you can too.
I wish you good health and a safe and smooth life. β
