Chapter 40: Exchanging Saliva
The two followed the sound and saw a pale little girl standing in the bedroom of the suite.
"Ah!" Fu Mingshuang screamed.
Lu Shiyu was much calmer.
"Why are you here?" Fu Mingshuang asked Nian Jiusi in horror.
Finding something wrong, he turned to Lu Shiyu and asked, "Why is she here?"
Lu Shiyu wiped the lip marks from his lips and said calmly: "She has been in Hong Kong Island for quite some time. When she ran out of money, she came to see me."
"So you've always known that she was in this suite?" Fu Mingshuang couldn't believe it, and her voice was trembling.
Lu Shiyu nodded.
Fu Mingshuang was almost choked with anger. What kind of normal thinking was this?
His fiancée was in the room, and he was with another woman...
What else did she just say?
Want to sleep here for one?!
With such an explosive plot, Fu Mingshuang thought she was reading a stupid novel written by Li Si!
Before Fu Mingshuang could calm down, Ling Xiuzhu, who was also shocked by her son hanging up on her, called again.
This time, Nian Jiusi answered the phone.
Ling Xiuzhu: "Lu Shiyu! You f**k..."
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Nian Jiusi."
Ling Xiuzhu's first dirty word died in her throat, and after a long while she managed to speak incoherently:
"Who? Who? Jiu... Jiu... Xiaojiu?"
"Yeah." Nian Jiusi answered softly.
“You, you’re…”
"I'm in Hong Kong Island, with Brother Shiyu."
"Are, together? Just now it was you..."
"Yes, it's me." Nian Jiusi rolled his eyes at the couple and said with a guilty conscience:
"I was just exchanging saliva with Brother Shiyu..."
There was deathly silence on the other end of the phone.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Shiyu closed his eyes in despair, but Fu Mingshuang listened with joy.
"Before that...were you the one in the club, and even in the bar?" Ling Xiuzhu came back to her senses and continued asking.
Nian Jiusi didn't understand what she was saying, so he made a blind guess:
"Yes, it's me."
Ling Xiuzhu asked Nian Jiusi to give the phone to Lu Shiyu. She kept saying "Shiyu, Shiyu" for a long time before she said:
"You, you better be careful."
"I understand, mother." Lu Shiyu hung up the phone.
Okay, there are three people left in the room.
"Then I'll sleep at Sister Mingshuang's place tonight." Nian Jiusi leaned over.
"What?" Fu Mingshuang's face was filled with disgust. "I don't want it."
"Then I'll sleep with Brother Shiyu?"
Fu Mingshuang glanced at Lu Shiyu and shrugged indifferently: "Whatever you say."
Finally, Lu Shiyu, who was warned by his mother to be careful, kicked the two women out of his room.
Fu Mingshuang, who had made a harsh statement that she would sleep with a man tonight no matter what, finally brought an underage girl back to her place.
When I opened the door, I found that the man I had just met in the bar had left.
There was a note left on the table with a phone number on it.
Fu Mingshuang took a look at it, then crumpled it into a ball and threw it away.
It was originally intended to annoy Lu Shiyu, not that he really wanted to make friends.
Fu Mingshuang turned around and saw Nian Jiusi calling Shen Ni with his phone:
"If I don't use Sister Mingshuang's phone, you won't answer my calls, right?"
"Nian, Jiu, Si, it was clearly you who blocked me." Chen Ni was helpless on the other end of the phone.
"Who told you to ignore me!"
Having studied law for so many years, his intuition told him that Nian Jiusi's logic was wrong, but he didn't know where to refute it. He could only say weakly:
"Stop it, okay? You've been out of school for a long time, and I don't know how much longer I can keep this a secret for you."
"Do you want me to go back to the capital?"
"Of course I do, my great aunt."
"Say you missed me."
The gurgling current flowed for three seconds before Shen Ni's deep voice came: "Nian Jiusi, I have said countless times that I have a wife."
"But she is dead, and I am alive."
***
The next day, Chen Ni, who flew from the imperial capital to Hong Kong Island overnight, brought Lu Shiyu and Nian Jiusi to An Qian's tomb.
He put down a bunch of her favorite daisies. In the black and white photo, she was smiling sweetly, still at the age of 23, her best self.
"elder sister……"
"Nian Jiusi, you promised not to talk nonsense." Shen Ni said in a tight voice.
Nian Jiusi rolled her eyes at him, then said to An Qian's photo very sweetly, "Sister, you are so lucky. Lawyer Shen has always missed you."
Shen Ni looked at the photo again, his eyes filled with sadness.
Lu Shiyu also put down a bouquet of flowers.
This was his first visit to An Qian after she was laid to rest. Wasn't this a relief for her after so many years of suffering from illness?
In the distance, Fu Mingshuang, dressed in plain black and wearing sunglasses, looked at the three people from afar. She didn't dare to go over, but just put a bunch of daisies on the ground.
His nails dug into his palms, and his large sunglasses couldn't stop the tears from flowing.
Lu Shiyu turned around inadvertently and saw a figure hurriedly leaving in the distance...
Sure enough, An Qian is very important to her, so she wants to save herself again and again.
***
Dr. Xiao could see that Lu Shiyu's condition was obviously worse today.
"I went to see An Qian." Lu Shiyu said frankly.
Dr. Xiao paused. He certainly remembered his patient. “She had her choice, but this is not your ending.”
Lu Shiyu took the medicine Dr. Xiao prescribed for him and asked, "Will I be addicted to this medicine?"
“Yes, so it cannot be taken for a long time.”
"Where's that person?"
Dr. Xiao smiled and said, "If you meet a good person, what's the problem with addiction?"
"What if she's not a good person?"
"People are not medicine. Whether they are good or bad depends on how you think."
Lu Shiyu returned to the hotel and rang the doorbell of Fu Mingshuang's room.
Just when I thought she was away, the door opened.
Her face was bare, her eyes were a little red and swollen, and she looked lifeless.
"What's wrong?" Her voice was cold.
"I left something unsaid last night."
"What do you want to say?"
"I'm someone who can't even control my own life, and I've never thought of prying into yours... So, regarding An Qian's matter, I'm just..."
"Do you know why I avoid talking about it to An Qian?" Fu Mingshuang interrupted him with empty eyes.
"I know." Lu Shiyu recalled the first day she came to Hong Kong. Her eyes were red from crying, and she was also wearing the same black outfit today.
"No, you don't know..." Fu Mingshuang suddenly smiled, and her red eyes made her smile look ferocious.
"Because I killed An Qian with my own hands."
