Chapter 375: Invitation from Former Father-in-Law
Cheng Xuyuan risked his life to save his sister. What was going on? Li Yufei's mind raced. She realized at that moment that her sister had not returned from southern Xinjiang in time. There might be some unexpected circumstances that she didn't know about.
From what his parents said, it seemed that Cheng Xuyuan was seriously injured in his attempt to save his sister.
But why did Cheng Xuyuan do this?
Just when Li Yufei was eager to know the answer, she heard Shen Yumo say, "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about here?"
"Cheng Xuyuan saved me because he saw that I was in danger."
"The relationship between us is still friends."
When saying these two sentences, Shen Yumo was very righteous.
But in fact, she felt a little guilty at this moment.
Only she herself knows that their current relationship can no longer be called friends.
Shen Yunliang looked at his daughter's expression and blamed Li Xueling, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Cheng Xuyuan saved Yu Mo mainly because... because they happened to meet."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
"Yu Mo's return is a great joyous event for our family."
"Go prepare the meal!"
Li Xueling wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, did not argue, and went to work.
Shen Yunliang said to Shen Yumo: "Yumo, go wash up, we'll eat now."
Shen Yumo knew that his father made this arrangement to ease the embarrassment caused by his mother's casual words, so he immediately agreed and walked into the room.
Shen Yumo shares a room with her younger sister Li Yufei at home. In the two girls' room, there is a half-meter-high mirror embedded in the cabinet.
Standing in front of the mirror, Shen Yumo looked at himself in the mirror.
I saw that at this moment, I was not haggard because of the long journey. On the contrary, I gave people a feeling as beautiful as a flower.
The face was still the same face, but she felt that it was a little different.
This shouldn't be the case! Just as Shen Yumo was pondering, Li Yufei walked in quietly.
She hesitated for a moment, then said to Shen Yumo, "Sister, you...what happened to you this time? My parents didn't tell me."
"But from what I heard from them just now, it seems a bit serious!"
Shen Yumo looked at Li Yufei who was showing concern, and gently put his arm around her shoulders and said, "It's okay, I just encountered a little danger when I was out."
"Fortunately, Cheng Xuyuan was there at the time. He was injured trying to save me."
"But it's all over now."
It sounded easy when her sister said it, but from the looks of her parents, Li Yufei felt that this matter was not simple.
She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sister, what happened at that time? Can you tell me about it?"
"What you said is over."
Looking at his sister who was full of curiosity, Shen Yumo pondered for a moment and said solemnly: "Since you want to listen, I will tell you."
"The situation at that time was like this..."
Listening to Shen Yumo's description of the dangerous situation, Li Yufei's heart couldn't help but writhe.
After all, this concerns the life and death of two people who are very important to her.
The big rock did not hit my sister's head, but hit Cheng Xuyuan's body, causing Cheng Xuyuan to lie down for more than half a month.
You can imagine what would happen if the stone hit my sister on the head.
Cheng Xuyuan saved his sister's life! From her sister's words, Li Yufei also knew that the reason why her sister delayed coming back for so many days was mainly to stay in the hospital to take care of Cheng Xuyuan.
This kind of care seems to be taken for granted.
After all, he saved sister Shen Yumo's life! No wonder the mother asked whether the relationship between the two had recovered.
"Sister, is the question Mom asked still possible?" Li Yufei hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice.
Although facing the same question, Shen Yumo did not feel any pressure because the person asking the question was Li Yufei.
She sighed softly and said, "Cheng Xuyuan already has a partner, and his relationship with Fang Yuqing is also very stable."
"He saved me because he saw that I was in danger, so he rushed over. It can only be regarded as an instinct."
"Just because he risked his life to save me doesn't mean he will reconcile with me."
Listening to her sister's words, an idea came to Li Yufei's mind.
My sister only said that Cheng Xuyuan would not reconcile with her, but she did not say whether she hoped to reconcile with Cheng Xuyuan.
From this point of view alone, my sister still has the idea of reconciling with Cheng Xuyuan in her heart.
However, the person who is unwilling to do so now has become Cheng Xuyuan.
Thoughts surged in her mind, making her feel extremely complicated.
She hoped that her sister and Cheng Xuyuan would reconcile, so that Fang Yuqing's efforts would be in vain. But she also felt that if this were to happen...
"Let's go, let's go eat first." Shen Yumo had no idea what her sister was thinking about. She changed into loose home clothes and said to her sister.
Li Yufei hesitated for a moment and followed her sister to the living room.
In the living room, the food has been served and it is very sumptuous.
As the head of the family, Shen Yunliang was the first to raise his glass and said, "Come, let's raise our glasses together to welcome Yu Mo back safely."
Following Shen Yunliang's suggestion, Shen Yushu and Shen Yulin also raised their glasses.
In front of Shen Yumo and his sister Li Yufei was a small glass of champagne. This drink has a very low alcohol content and is a very popular drink.
Looking at his parents and relatives who raised their glasses, Shen Yumo quickly raised his glass and said, "Thank you, Mom and Dad, brother and sister-in-law, and thank you, Yufei."
As she spoke, she drank the champagne in the glass.
Looking at Shen Yumo who drank the wine in the glass, everyone in the Shen family followed suit and drank the wine in the glass.
Brothers Shen Yulin and Shen Yushu had no idea why their parents welcomed their sister back with such fanfare.
After all, it was just a business trip of about a month.
It seemed that the last time Shen Yumo officially returned to Yanjing from Chengjiazhuang, his father was not so excited.
Shen Yunliang put down the wine glass in his hand and said: "Yu Mo, and the rest of you, remember in the future, no matter what time it is, you must pay attention to your own safety."
"Your mother and I are old. From now on, you brothers and sisters must learn to take care of yourselves."
Hearing this, Shen Yumo's heart twitched.
Although my father's hair is still combed meticulously and neatly, there are some white hairs among it.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Why are you talking about this today?" Shen Yushu, as the eldest son in the family, heard something strange and asked his father in a deep voice.
Shen Yunliang glanced at his son, then said in a deep voice: "Yu Mo encountered great danger when he went out this time."
"Under the circumstances at the time, if someone hadn't come to our rescue, we would have been in big trouble."
Hearing this, brothers Shen Yushu and Shen Yulin were both shocked.
They only knew that their sister went to southern Xinjiang for an interview and study, but they didn't expect that she would encounter danger.
"Is my sister in any danger?" Shen Yulin asked with concern.
"I encountered a landslide and a rock almost hit me." Shen Yumo was now able to talk about his experience very calmly.
When Shen Yulin heard his sister say this, he felt relieved, but he also thought of the danger at that time.
If they were hit by the stone, their younger sister, who was having dinner with them right now, might not come back.
"Dad, you must thank the person who saved Yu Mo later." Shen Yushu said: "Yu Mo, what is the name of the person who saved you, and where does he work?"
When Shen Yumo heard his brother's question, he was just thinking about how to answer it, but Shen Yunliang said, "The one who saved your sister was Cheng Xuyuan."
"He was in the hospital for a while because of this."
"The reason why your sister came back late was because she was taking care of him in the hospital."
Hearing about rescuing Shen Yumo, Cheng Xuyuan, Shen Yulin and Shen Yushu brothers looked at each other for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Why did Cheng Xuyuan have to save his sister? It seemed that there was nothing wrong with Cheng Xuyuan saving his sister.
No, it should be Cheng Xuyuan who saved my sister. This is really normal. Otherwise, my sister would have been hit by the falling rocks.
The consequences would be unimaginable! Shen Yushu pondered for a moment and said, "Dad, I think Cheng Xuyuan has done a favor to our family in this matter."
"Dad, I also think that we should thank him properly."
Shen Yunliang looked at his two sons with serious expressions, nodded and said, "You are right. We should thank Cheng Xuyuan for this matter."
"So, I discussed it with your mother and decided to invite him to our house for a meal in the next two days."
"No matter what, this is our intention."
Having said this, he glanced at his two sons and said, "Please arrange a time and come over to accompany the guests."
Both of them readily agreed to their father's arrangement.
Seeing that the atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit solemn, Shen Yunliang said: "Yu Mo's safe return is a great joy for our family. Come, let's have another drink."
As the family raised their wine glasses again, the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became much better.
Shen Yunliang was a man of his words, so after going to work the next day, he simply took a tour around the unit and then came to Yenching University.
At Yenching University, he was quite familiar with the place.
Not to mention that his daughter Li Yufei goes to school here and has been here many times, he himself has also been here many times for work.
Soon, he arrived at the History Department, asked a student for directions, and soon found Cheng Xuyuan who was helping in class.
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan standing on the podium with high spirits, Shen Yunliang felt mixed emotions.
This young man met almost all of his requirements and imaginations for a future son-in-law.
No, it should be said that it has far exceeded his requirements.
But, unfortunately, my family missed out on this marriage because they did not recognize the value of this beautiful woman!
Although Shen Yunliang remained silent, Cheng Xuyuan, who was giving a lecture, noticed Shen Yunliang standing outside the door a few minutes later.
He immediately asked the students to wait for a moment, then quickly came to Shen Yunliang and asked, "Uncle Shen, why are you here?"
"Xuyuan, your lectures are good." Shen Yunliang said with a smile: "I came here specifically to invite you."
"When are you free these two days? Come to my house for dinner."
