Chapter 841
I nodded, already wrapped up thickly, and couldn’t wait to get downstairs. The Four Seasons saw me and didn’t even wait for me to say anything.
The little one giggled and threw snowballs at me, so without further ado, I picked up the irregularly shaved snow on the ground, squeezed it in my hands and sparred with her.
After all, it was a child and an adult, and a few times down the line, the four seasons suffered a loss, automatically teaming up with Fu Qingyin, the two of them together against me, which left me a bit overwhelmed.
The good thing is that with the addition of Fu Qingyin, it was a lot easier. After being hit by snowballs a few times, the Four Seasons got rogue.
Sitting in the snow, she complained, “Mummy isn’t fair, you two are both adults and Auntie and I are a child and an old man, no way.”
Fu Qingyin gave a tsk, but said stubbornly, “Four Seasons, when did Auntie become an old man, Auntie is still very good, okay?”
Four Seasons gave her a sly wink, meaning that she should pretend for a while, but Fu Qingyin understood in a second and looked at us, “Four Seasons is right, you are both strong, this is not appropriate, right?”
“What about a change?” I spoke up, looking at the two of them and smiling.
Fu Shen Yan pursed his lips and spoke, “I’m injured and not very mobile, it doesn’t make any difference.”
This was a reasonable statement, but how it sounded felt as if the man was doing it on purpose.
Four Seasons gave a small hum and said, “Uncle Fu is clearly just being cheeky.”
It seemed that Four Seasons was not willing to take a loss and Fu Shen Yan was not willing to change his teammates, so he could only build a snowman.
Every snowfall in the capital was tremendous, yes more than ten centimetres deep, to build a snowman was indeed a good choice.
Many years later, back in Jiangcheng, I did not see snow again, so the rest of my life began to miss the late winter when the snowmen were piled up.
Fu got into the swing of things, as Fu Shenyan stopped letting me mention Gu Han, and after a long time, it seemed as if I had never known them.
In the early spring of the following year, after a few gentle rains all the dead trees in the capital began to sprout new shoots and even a few peach trees in the courtyard were in bloom.
Fu Shenyan said that he had forgotten to take me to enjoy the plum blossoms last year, and I said that he had forgotten a lot, and that we were supposed to go north years ago.
The first thing that I did was to take a small holiday to the four seasons and take her back to Jiangcheng.
Fu Shenyin was busy with company matters and didn’t have time to accompany me, because he really didn’t feel at ease, so he asked Chen Yi to go with us.
At the airport, while waiting for the plane, Chen Yi went shopping and Mo Fei Lin called.
“When are you coming back to Jiangcheng?” By the sound of her voice, she seemed to be still eating.
“I’ll be back after the Qingming Festival!” The reason for going back this time was to see the deceased person who had left.
She complained on the other end of the phone, “You have to hurry back, I’m about to give birth, you don’t want to miss the birth of my baby.”
I smiled lightly and looked up to see that Chen Yi had already bought something and was coming over, so I said, “Okay, okay, I know, I’ll be back when you have your baby.”
Chen Yi handed me a bottle of water and looked at me and said, “Madam, it’s time to board the plane.”
I looked at the gate and saw that people were already boarding the plane one by one, so I said into the phone, “I’ll be back before you have the baby, I’m boarding, I’m hanging up now!”
After pulling the Four Seasons onto the plane, Chen Yi sent a message to Fu Shen Yan, then asked the stewardess for a blanket and handed it to me and the Four Seasons, saying, “I got up early in the morning, it will take four hours to arrive, so you guys get some sleep.”
I smiled lightly and looked at him and said, “Chen Yi, I knew you were married before, do you have children?”
He nodded and looked at me and said, “Madam, we have a child.”
That’s a good official answer!
Chapter 842
Seeing him carefully covering the Four Seasons and adjusting her to a comfortable sitting position, I thought, “This man must be especially good at taking care of his wife at home.
I couldn’t help but say, “Chen Yi, do your wife and you both live in the capital now?” It seems they were both in Jiangcheng before, but now that the company has moved to the capital, they should both be in the capital too!
He nodded his head, “Mm!”
Fine!
I was thinking of talking to him, but I realized that this guy really talks very, very little.
I seemed to have been sleeping pretty well lately, so I slept for a while, had some meals and fruit halfway through, and arrived in no time.
When we got off the plane, Chen Yi sent me and the Four Seasons straight back to our former villa.
When I saw Sister Zhang, I couldn’t help but stare, I hadn’t seen her for years and she had more white hair on her head.
When she saw me, she smiled, “Sir said you were coming back and others were taking care of you and couldn’t get used to it for a while, so she asked me to come over and take care of you for a few days.”
With that, she reached out to pull me, “I haven’t seen you for a few years, you’ve lost weight, Little Shu.”
I was more than a little surprised and cheerful, I hadn’t seen her for years, but I couldn’t tell how close I was.
She was too old to hold the four seasons, so she just held her hand and looked at me, wanting to say something, but I knew what she meant, but I just smiled lightly.
After settling in, Chen Yi left. Sister Zhang kept pulling me along to talk, saying that during the years I was away, Fu Shenyin would come back here almost every so often, with a hangover, and then rush back to work in the capital the next day, even though he was exhausted, he was happy to do so.
He would go to the cemetery from time to time, sometimes overnight, sometimes in heavy rain, and when he returned he would be very ill, and even then, he would still go.
I listened in silence, as if much of the past, when told carefully, had become a story.
After a long chat, the next day, Han Shuang arrived, someone I hadn’t seen in almost a year.
She has become more and more professional, and when she saw me, she smiled lightly and said, “You’ve lost weight!”
I smiled lightly and greeted her as she entered the villa. Sister-in-law Zhang made tea and she looked at me for a long time before saying, “I heard that something happened to Nan Xiangxiang.”
I was in a bit of a trance, how long had it been, I nodded slightly and spoke, “You were in Jiangcheng, how was it?”
She smiled lightly, “It’s rare that Mr. Fu looks up to me and promotes me to be a regional manager, luckily, in terms of career, I’m considered pretty good.”
Counting her age, she was also in her thirties, after a pause, she continued, “But emotionally, there doesn’t seem to be much left to say.”
If the timing is correct, Lu Qi’s execution will take place in early autumn this year.
After a shallow cup of tea, she spoke quietly, “I’ve been to see him, he’s lost a lot of weight, someone I once hated and hated so much, I thought I’d be happy, happy when I saw how down and out he was, but it doesn’t seem to be happening.”
Looking at her, I couldn’t help but think, after all, it was someone who had loved, and even if they hated again, as time swung and the years of hate faded, all that was left was intolerance.
The first thing you need to do is to go to an auction in the evening at the southern suburb of Jiangcheng.
I shook my head and said with a light smile, “You know, I don’t really like to get together.”
She pursed her lips, “It’s not a hobby either, I have a friend who works for the Mu’s, and I’ve seen their auction items, there’s a sandalwood box very similar to the one Master Fu gave you, I’ve heard that this box is a dragon and phoenix box, the two boxes have to be opened together, didn’t you ask me before how to open that box? I looked up a lot of information and just felt that maybe this kind was the most reliable.”
I didn’t respond for a moment and froze, “A dragon and phoenix box?”
