Chapter 102: Returning
Qi Shaoyou has been missing for three months, and Shen Mingjiao has finally returned to her so-called normal life.
She stopped living on campus and instead rented an apartment not far from the school. After all the memories flooded back, Shen Mingjiao couldn't control her tears.
If she stayed at home, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to control her tears and would scare her mother and mommy.
"I'm back," Shen Mingjiao said habitually. This time, she chose a small apartment because she couldn't stand the emptiness of a large house.
The aroma of her aunt's cooking still lingered in the house, but she didn't have much of an appetite.
As usual, after finishing speaking, tears began to fall from Shen Mingjiao's eyes again. In that world where she was a princess, the first thing she did every time she returned to the mansion was to pull Qi Shaoyou out from a corner.
Then she grabbed Qi Shaoyou by the collar and said, "Your wife is back! Your wife is back!"
When Qi Shaoyou was pressed down onto the huanghuali wood chair, he would laugh and hug Shen Mingjiao's waist while whispering something.
"My little wife is back? Where did she go today?"
"Did he say anything bad about his wife? If I hear it from someone else the next day..."
Then came the laughter and playful banter between the wife; those days were once the most ordinary happiness in Shen Mingjiao's life.
However, she can't even reach the most ordinary happiness now.
As soon as she thought about her past life, tears streamed down Shen Mingjiao's face.
"Why are you crying like this? Who bullied our little princess?" Qi Shaoyou had just been released by the Heavenly Dao and thought Shen Mingjiao would be happy to see him again.
As a result, she didn't see the beautifully dressed little princess, but only a little princess crying.
Her brightly colored clothes were gone, as were her headdress. She was wearing a drab gray down jacket, looking as if she were wrapped in a blanket.
Good news, this outfit definitely won't make you cold.
Bad news: Shen Mingjiao's mood is always linked to her appearance.
How heartbreaking must that be?
"Who cares who it is!" Shen Mingjiao was in a bad mood and snapped back when someone asked.
Qi Shaoyou, dressed in official robes, was slightly taken aback upon hearing his young wife's anger.
"Why are you so angry? Tell your wife..."
Before he could finish speaking, a little idiot rushed into Qi Shaoyou's arms.
The immense force of the impact sent Qi Shaoyou sprawling to the ground. A sharp pain shot through the back of her head, but what terrified her even more than the headache was the person in her arms.
"Wow!" Shen Mingjiao nestled in Qi Shaoyou's arms, feeling the warmth emanating from the person she was pressing down on, and only then did she realize it was real.
"You bastard! You big bad guy! Qi Shaoyou, I'm going to boil you!"
When Shen Mingjiao gets angry, the things she says start to sound strange.
Qi Shaoyou was used to his wife's daily thoughts. Once, she was tricked into going to a restaurant by her colleagues.
The singer her colleague had called hadn't arrived yet, but her wife had arrived first.
At that time, Shen Mingjiao brought a sword with her and cleaved open the door of the room with a single stroke.
The fragile wooden door shattered into pieces, splinters covering his colleague's face. But no one present dared to speak.
Her colleagues were dumbfounded and could only watch as the princess pulled her husband away.
Similar incidents were countless. Qi Shaoyou couldn't help but smile as she recalled the past. She gently patted Shen Mingjiao's back, trying to ease her sadness.
Feeling the actual touch, Shen Mingjiao finally looked up at Qi Shaoyou. Those dark blue eyes were real, and everything she touched was warm.
"You're still laughing!"
Looking at the smile on Qi Shaoyou's lips, Shen Mingjiao's tears flowed even more. As she cried, she clenched her fists and punched Qi Shaoyou.
To avoid actually injuring anyone, Shen Mingjiao chose to punch Qi Shaoyou's shoulder.
"I was happy to see Madam!" Qi Shaoyou pleaded repeatedly, knowing full well that her little princess was a bit anxious.
"Liar!" Shen Mingjiao didn't want to hear these words at all. She looked at this wicked woman with deep hatred in her eyes.
"You've already abandoned me, how could you possibly be happy to see me?"
Qi Shaoyou felt wronged and raised her hands in surrender.
"I really didn't abandon you..."
As soon as Shen Mingjiao saw that she was about to start explaining, she pressed down on Qi Shaoyou's shoulder and kissed him.
She was never very good at kissing, and her impulsive and angry kiss made Qi Shaoyou, who was kissing her, just want to laugh.
There was absolutely no romantic atmosphere...
"Look, you don't care about me at all! You even smile when we kiss!" After the kiss, Shen Mingjiao looked at Qi Shaoyou and tears started falling again.
"It's a miscarriage of justice! It's a miscarriage of justice! Where did this huge accusation come from?" Qi Shaoyou wiped away Shen Mingjiao's tears with heartache. How could she not feel sorry for Shen Mingjiao?
Dark circles under her eyes, slightly swollen eyes, and noticeably thinner figure all pointed to one thing: Shen Mingjiao had been suffering these past few days, not eating or sleeping well.
"Then why are you laughing!" Shen Mingjiao's eyes were swollen, making her look like an angry rabbit. Rabbits are generally seen as kind and cute, but those who truly understand rabbits know...
Some rabbits are both irritable and easily out of control, like the one in front of Qi Shaoyou.
"Aren't you happy that I'm back? But I'm very happy. I'm so happy to see our Jiaojiao and to kiss her."
Qi Shaoyou gently stroked Shen Mingjiao's back, his voice soft.
"Are you really that happy?" Shen Mingjiao pouted, easily coaxed.
"Then you have to promise me one thing, and I'll try my best not to be angry with you."
Shen Mingjiao mumbled something, and Qi Shaoyou couldn't help but laugh.
Listen to this unequal treaty; the implication of "try not to get angry" is that she'll get angry even if you agree to it.
"Okay." Qi Shaoyou knew she couldn't argue with the little princess, so she could only nod.
"I'm going to take a leave of absence from school, and you'll come with me!"
The little princess's request surprised Qi Shaoyou, and she almost immediately shook her head.
"This still won't work..."
