Chapter 344: Chapter 225
“Also, I t Uncle Xu Jie. From him, I learned so of the stories between you back in the day. That might not be the whole picture, but it sounded like there were quite a few regrets between you two.”
“I don’t know if you ever blad him for leaving without a word, but he was actually on a secret mission all those years. The letter you wrote to him after Wenyan was born was sent to his house.”
“Unfortunately, he had a good-for-nothing friend who was blinded by greed. That scumbag saw the money you sent and secretly opened the letter, never giving it back to him. It wasn’t until a few days ago that this old incident ca to light again.”
“Also, during his mission, he was severely injured in an explosion. But luckily, the police caught the bad guys, and he was successfully rescued.”
“The regrettable part is, his face was disfigured. He has changed beyond recognition. If I hadn’t seen the photo of the two of you he kept treasured in his watch, I wouldn’t have known how much Wenyan resembles him. He was so handso when he was young, Auntie, you had such good taste. If only you hadn’t left so early. No, I should say, if only you two hadn’t separated.”
“However, ti can’t be turned back, these are all things that have happened. Today, besides coming to see you, I actually have another thing I’m uncertain about. That is, I don’t know how to deal with the relationship between him and . What would Wenyan do?”
At this point, Wenyan took a deep breath: “When I first ca to this world, I tried deliberately to separate myself from the original Wenyan. But later I realized that I am now her; the her of the past is also a part of the
now.”
“Well, after saying so much it seems I still don’t know what to do. Auntie, no, I should call you Mom Wen. Mom Wen, if you have found Wenyan over there, if you are willing to guide
on this matter, would you please send
a dream?”
“I will co to see you again when I have ti. Oh right, I promised Uncle Xu that if I found your resting place, I would tell him the address, so he might co to see you soon. I’m leaving now.”
Wenyan took a wet wipe from her bag, carefully cleaned the dust off the tombstone, and then stood up.
When she turned around, she saw Shen Jingxiu at the bottom of the stairs.
Shen Jingxiu was also looking at her.
His gaze was profound and resolute, as if he had been standing there motionless.
If Wenyan had been slightly hesitant and wavering just before, she suddenly found a sense of security now.
She waved to Shen Jingxiu down the stairs, her face breaking into a smile again.
As she descended the stairs, Wenyan moved quickly, with Shen Jingxiu stretching out his hand from several steps away.
“Take it slow, watch your step, don’t rush.”
Wenyan shrank her neck: “It’s too cold, I want to get back to the car quickly.”
“Then wait here for , I’ll bring the car over.”
“No need for that, I can still walk this little distance by myself. I’m just cold, not frozen stiff, big brother.”
Shen Jingxiu chuckled softly, but quickened his pace imperceptibly.
The car was still running, and as soon as Wenyan got in, she imdiately ca back to life.
“It’s so warm, and I’m hungry. Are you hungry? Let’s find a place to eat first.”
Shen Jingxiu lifted his wrist to check the ti on his watch; it was already past three in the afternoon.
The cetery was located in the suburbs; by the ti they’d reach an area with restaurants, it would probably be past four, just in ti for an early dinner.
“Okay. Let’s eat first, and then I’ll have the driver co and take you ho.”
“Have the driver take
ho? What about you?” Wenyan was puzzled, looking curiously at Shen Jingxiu, “Aren’t you coming back with
after dinner? Isn’t it the weekend, do you have other matters to attend to?”
Seeing Wenyan pressing for an answer, Shen Jingxiu responded truthfully.
“While I was waiting for you just now, I got a phone call, I have to go to the police station. It’s about Xu Jie.”
“Then I want to go too! Is it because of the background check you asked soone to do on him, has there been a result?”
“Yes, the other party told
it’s not clear over the phone, so they asked
to go over when I have ti.”
“Then I’m going too.”
Shen Jingxiu gave Wenyan a look: “Is it convenient for you with your identity?”
“Convenient, if what you’re referring to is my so-called celebrity status, then it’s actually not inconvenient at all. The police won’t be gossiping like so reporters. And if I don’t want to be recognized, I can just wear a mask and a hat.”
