I thought that as long as I let her leave A City, as long as I kept my distance from her, I could completely strip her out of my heart. Yet, I underestimated her influence on .
After she left, I should have cleared away everything about her, but sohow, I left our marital ho. The marital ho was bought before we got married, and since the marriage, I rarely set foot there; there were almost no traces of there, but I still kept it.
I hired a new servant specifically to take care of this house, and the furnishings inside remained the sa, untouched.
Lin Yixun left cleanly and efficiently, taking nothing with her, not her clothes, nor her jewelry, and not even her favorite lipstick.
Maybe she, like , wanted to put the past behind her and never touch it again. She did it well, while I lingered.
When she was here, I rarely went to our marital ho, but after she left, I couldn’t help but go back there.
Stepping into the spacious living room, this house used to be filled with life because of her presence, but now it was empty and lifeless.
My gaze involuntarily fell on the sofa not far away. When she was here, she’d always lazily lie there at night, whether I ca back or not, she would wait there, and when she saw , she’d jump off the sofa and give a brilliant smile.
And ?
My reactions were always cold and indifferent, even uttering cruel and heartless words that I couldn’t suppress.
Every ti I saw her waiting without complaint, I felt inexplicably angry. Can’t she see that I hate her? Didn’t she notice my indifference? But why, after being humiliated by ti and ti again, does she still wait for as if nothing had happened, always leaving the light on for , even though she knows I won’t set foot in this living room?
The past flooded in like a torrent, making want to escape. I took steps towards the kitchen to grab a drink from the fridge but saw Lin Yixun’s shadow by the cabinet. She wore an apron, held a spatula, looking like a housewife, yet she was flustered by the big crab in the pot.
Before the marriage, her ten fingers had never touched household chores, naturally never stepping into a kitchen, but for , she had searched for various recipes online and constantly tried different dishes.
"Don’t worry, dinner will be ready soon."
In a daze, I vaguely saw her turn and give a playful smile. Seeing this, I couldn’t help but smile. But just when I happily took a step forward, everything turned into a mirage.
Where was her figure by the cabinet? Everything was just my imagination.
Every corner of the house was filled with her footprints, still lingering with her scent. I knew I should stay away from this house, but I couldn’t help getting close, seeking her traces like a desperate addiction.
Sotis, even I found it ridiculous. What’s the point of doing this? Didn’t I already decide to remove her from my mind? Hadn’t I already blocked all paths back to her?
Even though I knew my mind should be clear, I couldn’t help but miss her. Ti should be the best redy for forgetting, but as ti passed, her face beca even clearer in my mory. For , ti was poisonous, and I was deeply poisoned.
One day, while on a business trip, I passed by a flower shop. At the entrance, there were many lavender plants, strikingly eye-catching.
I was drawn to the striking purple and stopped, asking the shop owner, "What is the flower language of lavender?"
"Ah, so sir likes lavender too. Lavender’s flower language is very special, it’s most suitable for waiting for the miracle of love."
"Waiting for the miracle of love?"
Staring at the lavender in front of , I was lost in thought. Lin Yixun, do you know the flower language of lavender?
In the end, I bought all the lavender in the flower shop.
My action surprised the accompanying assistant. In surprise, the assistant suggested, "President Leng, if you like lavender, why not plant so in the garden? That way, you can see it every day."
I said nothing, but when I returned to the villa, I had the servants clear out the greenhouse.
Later, whenever I felt bad or couldn’t help but want to find her, I would stay in the greenhouse for a long ti.
At first, due to lack of experience, the lavender I planted didn’t live long. Every ti the lavender died, I would patiently replant new ones.
However, plants can die and start over, but what about a human heart?
If a person’s heart dies, can it co back to life?
I couldn’t help but want to know the answer, so one night, I suddenly did sothing crazy. That night, I thought of nothing, abandoned all worries, and rushed to the airport, then boarded a plane to T City.
I always knew she was there, but I kept telling myself that where she was and how she was doing had nothing to do with . But this ti, I wanted to be crazy once, to disregard everything just to see her, even if just for a glance.
After a night of travel, the next day, as I wished, I saw her at a fruit supermarket. Compared to when she left, she had beco much thinner, her back so frail it seed a gust of wind could blow her away. Yet, she always had a smile on her face, even when a custor was deliberately making things difficult for her, she still forced a smile through the embarrassnt and grievance in her eyebrows.
I watched everything from afar, my heart aching slightly. She used to be so proud, so pampered, never even having cleared away the dishes after als, but now she had to rise early and work late, humbling herself before others.
Seeing this, Old He behind spoke, "President Leng, should we go and help Miss Lin?"
My gaze shifted, about to take a step, but then I saw a young man rushing towards the custor and landing a hard punch without a word.
I froze, my gaze lingering on Lin Yixun’s face for a few seconds. I saw her beautiful face still smiling, looking at the young man with great tenderness.
Slowly retracting my gaze, I curled my lips in self-mockery. Soone was already standing up for her; why should I add to it? Furthermore, even if I helped her, she wouldn’t appreciate it.
There was too much resentnt between us, and ever since I forced her to sign the divorce agreent, there was no possibility between us anymore.
So, what was the point of rushing here in the middle of the night?
"Let’s go." I turned coldly and secluded everything about her behind . I coldly threw down a remark, "From now on, there’s no need to inform about anything related to her."
