Zhao Shuyao had initially wanted Jiang Shiyu to retrieve it herself, but after much thought, she decided it would be better to see it first before telling Jiang Shiyu.
Zhao Shuyao booked a flight to Haicheng, packed a few clothes, and planned to slip away before Xu Ruyun returned home.
At this time, Qin Yusheng, Xu Ruyun, and Qin Zhonghai were all out. If not now, then when?
Zhao Shuyao successfully got into a taxi and let out a sigh. Checking the time, she realized she had just enough time to reach the airport.
She dozed off in the car and arrived at the airport smoothly. Zhao Shuyao got out of the car with her bag.
Whether it was from lying down for too long or for some other reason, the bag that she used to carry without breaking a sweat now felt a little tiring.
Zhao Shuyao changed her ticket and was about to go through security when suddenly, for some unknown reason, a group of ground staff appeared at the airport, seemingly looking for someone.
Could they be looking for her?
Impossible, impossible. How could they have discovered her absence so quickly?
Even if they had, they wouldn't have mobilized such a large force to find her.
As she was thinking this, she heard the airport announcement: "Ms. Zhao Shuyao, please proceed to the airport VIP lounge immediately upon hearing this. Ms. Zhao Shuyao, please proceed to the airport VIP lounge immediately upon hearing this..."
Zhao Shuyao's head buzzed, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
This was the epitome of social death.
She turned to leave, but someone had already spotted her.
In less than three seconds, she was surrounded by a group of ground staff.
Zhao Shuyao was escorted to the VIP lounge, her legs feeling weak.
Within minutes, a man appeared outside the VIP lounge door. The moment the man entered, a powerful aura surged into the room.
Cold, defiant, violent, savage.
Zhao Shuyao couldn't help but tremble, then she thought of something and gritted her teeth before standing up abruptly.
"Qin Yusheng! Can't I even go home to see my family! You're restricting my personal freedom! Believe it or not, I'll report you to the police!"
She strode up to the man, tilted her chin up, her eyes wide, her cheeks puffed out, and her expression furious.
Qin Yusheng looked down, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips.
"Go home? Deluding yourself, Zhao Shuyao. Why don't you go back to see your Dr. Xiang?!"
"What business is it of yours?!"
Zhao Shuyao's face flushed. Xiang had been very busy lately, and they barely contacted each other on WeChat. What right did this man have to control her?
The man suddenly reached out and pinched her cheeks.
Zhao Shuyao's gums ached from the pressure. When she struggled, it hurt even more.
"What business is it of mine? Heh... a slut is a slut, utterly shameless!"
The man's grip on her tightened abruptly.
Zhao Shuyao felt as if her teeth were about to be crushed by the man.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
This was the man she had harbored a secret crush on for years.
If only she hadn't donated a kidney to Qin Yusheng, would she have avoided this prolonged suffering?
"I regret it, Qin Yusheng."
The man froze, and the grip on her hand inexplicably loosened.
The next second, the man seemed to snap back to reality.
Crocodile tears!
Hypocritical!
"Regret? Zhao Shuyao, a woman like you is even worthy of regretting?! Regretting that you schemed your way into my bed back then, only to not get everything you wanted?!"
"Yes, I regret getting involved with a man like you! Anyway, in your eyes, I'm just a slut, a calculating woman. Think whatever you want!"
Zhao Shuyao shook off the man's hand and walked directly towards the exit of the VIP lounge.
Why was Huo Yanxue so useless!
How many days had it been!
She still hadn't received the divorce agreement from the man!
Haicheng.
Hearing that Jiang Shiyu's appetite hadn't been good lately, Su Ziyue brought some zongzi she had made herself to Jiang Shiyu.
Murong Cheng opened the door.
The moment the door opened and she saw the man standing behind it, Su Ziyue's face instantly lit up with joy.
"Acheng, why are you here too? I heard Shiyu hasn't had a good appetite and isn't feeling well, so I made some zongzi these past few days. I wasn't sure if you and Shiyu would like them, so I brought them over."
Ever since the incident last time, Su Ziyue hadn't seen Murong Cheng for a long time.
Murong Cheng only returned to the Murong family to pick up Cheche and Ruoruo.
Finally seeing him, Su Ziyue couldn't help but feel happy.
Such an outstanding man, she was determined to have him!
Even if it meant breaking her head, she would snatch him away from Jiang Shiyu!
Murong Cheng seemed to not notice the calculation in Su Ziyue's eyes and held the doorknob.
Standing behind the door, he showed no intention of letting Su Ziyue in.
"Thank you, but my wife doesn't like zongzi. We appreciate your kind gesture, but please take them back and eat them yourself."
Su Ziyue had expected to be shut out when she came, but she hadn't expected Murong Cheng to be so direct.
Su Ziyue's expression showed a flicker of embarrassment, but she quickly put on an understanding smile.
"Actually, after returning to the country, I often think, if I hadn't left with the child back then, would the person by your side now be me? If I had known back then that you were a responsible man who doted on and was loyal to his wife, I would never have chosen to leave..."
Su Ziyue looked dejected and regretful, as if she deeply regretted her actions back then.
Only then did Murong Cheng glance at Su Ziyue.
This was the first time Murong Cheng had looked directly at Su Ziyue since her return.
Every time he spoke to Su Ziyue, even when she was close, Murong Cheng deliberately maintained a distance.
However, the aura of this woman was completely different from the one he remembered from their one-night stand.
Perhaps it had been too long, and his memory was not clear.
She was completely different from his impression.
After all, Cheche and Ruoruo were born from her, and these two children had a blood relationship with him. Su Ziyue was also the biological mother of Cheche and Ruoruo.
"I can tell you very clearly, even if you hadn't left back then, the person by my side now would still not be you."
If Su Ziyue hadn't left back then, perhaps Ruoruo and Cheche wouldn't exist.
He had already found his true love many years ago, and this would never change in this lifetime.
Su Ziyue suddenly looked up, gazing dotingly at the incredibly handsome man before her.
"Why... what's so good about her? That makes you so devoted to her... she clearly..."
She heard that Jiang Shiyu often went to find Si Han.
Si Han was a cripple. Although he was exceptionally cold and handsome, Jiang Shiyu was already married and should uphold her wifely duties.
Even so, Murong Cheng's feelings for Jiang Shiyu hadn't changed at all!
Why!
"A person is like a rainbow, only truly known when met."
The man dropped this sentence and closed the door.
Su Ziyue stood alone in the cold wind, holding the zongzi.
A person is like a rainbow!
Before meeting Murong Cheng, Su Ziyue also didn't believe that such a perfect man could exist in the world.
Why should a woman like Jiang Shiyu possess Murong Cheng!
