Chapter 1859
As I was watching, Fu Changheng also noticed the movement over here and slowly turned his head to look over.
He was looking in the direction of Fu Shen Yan, and when he looked over, Fu Shen Yan’s eyes were still cold and angry.
However, the moment Fu Changheng’s eyes collided with Fu Shenyan’s, neither of them showed any surprise, as if they had already known of each other’s existence.
Fu Changheng even smiled and gently lifted the champagne in his hand to toast Fu Shen Yan across the air.
This action undoubtedly angered Fu Shen Yan, his face was gloomy to the extreme, his hand hanging at his side had long since unconsciously clenched his fist.
This kind of scene, everyone is about a party’s economy, any riot will be arrested by the security personnel as terrorists.
I knew Fu Shenyan too well, and as I watched the veins on his face bulge with rage, I didn’t hesitate to lift my feet and trot towards him.
“Don’t.”
Finally, the next second he lifted his foot, his hard fist was clasped.
Fu Shen Yan was like a raging lion king, staring in Fu Chang Heng’s direction for more than ten seconds, gritting his teeth and glaring at him, before he exhaled violently and calmed down.
He tilted his head, saw the anxiety on my face, a trace of heartache flashed under his eyes, and then looked at the direction of Fu Changheng, finally he could not bear it, and led me out through the side door.
In the back garden found an unoccupied bench to sit down, Fu Shen Yan only then the whole deflated and relaxed.
“You now know why I’ve been so perverse all this time.” The tone was faint, full of helplessness and loss.
Indeed, how many people would believe such a thing as coming back from the dead, and if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would have only thought that Fu Shenyan had overthought his parents to the point of imagination.
I didn’t know what to say when I didn’t react to such a sudden and dramatic change.
Fu Shen Yan also did not wait for my reaction, leaning against the bench behind him like a piece of wood, explaining himself.
“It was discovered by chance when investigating Yi Bohuai, the person in charge of tracking Mu Shen followed Yi Bohuai, paid off Yi Bohuai’s men and took private photos of the Yi residence, among them was a photo of that man playing golf with Yi Bohuai, just a side face, yet I recognized it at once.”
“Humph …… After hiding for so many years, but at this time reveals his foot, he really is getting older, the use of people’s eyes are not good anymore.”
“Twenty years, it turns out I’m the joke ……”
The self-explanation without logic, self-deprecating tone, Fu Shen Yan seems to treat himself as a clown, at this moment is like a defeated and injured wolf dog, looks lonely and wretched.
I suddenly understood what he meant by “twenty years of faith collapsing”.
At this moment, any consolation or enlightenment would have been pale.
I chose to let him lean into my arms, just as I had done the night before in my room in Jiangcheng, without saying a word, quietly waiting for the darkness to vow away.
Love is sometimes so magical that the other person, even if they can’t do anything about it, can redeem you just by being there.
Wise people never stay in a whirlwind of emotions for too long, especially in areas they can’t fully control. Fu Shen Yan quickly adjusted his emotions, got up from my arms and sat up straight.
“Let’s get out of here first.” Fu Shen Yan made a split-second decision.
Just as the words were spoken, the stone pathway that stretched into the banquet hall suddenly rang with the regular sound of footsteps.
Chapter 1860
We looked over at the same time and waited a few seconds for a young Chinese man to come into view.
I recognised him, he was the one who handed the speech to Yi Bohuai at the auction, I think he was Yi’s assistant.
There was a bit of a sight blind spot between the position of the bench and his direction, yet he seemed to have already determined our bearings and walked straight over, handing over a business card.
“Mr. Fu, Mr. Yi invites you to a gathering at his home tomorrow.”
After saying that, he respectfully put the business card in his hand on the stone table next to him and turned to leave.
Fu Shen Yan slowly took the business card in his hand and glanced at it, his expression was faint and somewhat lost in thought, as if he had thought of something.
If he wanted to talk business, he wouldn’t have waited until now, so this business card was just a blindfold to hide his eyes and ears.
“Is it from that person?” The one who really wanted to see Fu Shen Yan was, I’m afraid, Fu Chang Heng.
Fu Shen Yan nodded, “Mm.”
“You’re planning to go?” I asked.
Fu Shen Yan simply ignored my words and led me to get up, “Back to the hotel.”
We left through the back door, making sure there were no reporters around, and got into Fu Shen Yan’s car together.
There were no words along the way, Chen Yi drove the car to the nearest hilltop, Fu Shen Yan directly opened the car door and went down, standing in front of the fence and lit a cigarette.
The night was cool and breezy at the top of the hill, and the headlights hit Fu Shen Yan, illuminating his smoke-wrapped form extraordinarily clearly.
I looked at his back and whispered to Chen Yi, “How long has your boss known about Fu Changheng?”
“Half a month.” Chen Yi said, “He has barely slept during this period of time, and only when he is with you, Madam, can he get a good night’s sleep.”
His heart suddenly sank, seized uncomfortably.
Twenty years of hatred and obsession, how could it be dissolved in ten days and half a month?
Fu Changheng was still alive, dashing around in his paper-drenched days, but he had watched Fu Shenyan being tormented by hatred for over twenty years.
The meaning of nearly half of his life was instantly negated by his presence.
He could not save himself, so he could only accept the torment of his heart day and night without sleep.
I was his wife, his most precious existence, and should have found out much earlier to accompany him in facing his heart’s demons, but it came so late.
“I’m fine”, “I’m fine”, “Trust me”.
These superficial refrains are actually the best expression of his inability to overcome his emotions, and I, used to his omnipotence, took it for granted that he could handle it and really let it go.
The impulse to cry was suppressed, and I gathered my emotions, opened the car door and went down, hugged Fu Shen Yan from behind, and wrapped my hands around him tightly.
I obviously felt Fu Shen Yan’s body tremble, but did not push me away.
“You still have me.” The voice was soft, afraid to irritate him, “No matter what happened in the past, I will always love you and always need you.”
The cold wind poured into my clothes from my neck and I shivered with cold. Fu Shen Yan was silent for a moment, dropped the cigarette in his hand, stomped it out on the floor and turned to hold me in his arms.
“You’re the only thing I have left to live for.”
Fu Shen Yan’s voice was low, but the hug was strong, as if he was afraid I would slip away, and he inhaled fiercely, as if that would give him the courage to face everything from me.
After a long time, until his hands were a bit frozen by the night wind, Fu Shen Yan finally calmed down and helped me back to the car.
Because he was not sure what Fu Changheng had in mind, Fu Shen Yan was afraid that disappearing at the same time as me would cause big trouble and chose to take me back to the hotel first.
On the way, he elaborated as much as he could on his entanglement with Fu Changheng during this time.
