“I can see that Fu Yao’s potential is far greater than his current strength. What he needs is more time and experience. Before long, he will definitely become a great asset.”
“For someone like him, I should give him the platform and my investment. I believe that he will become a hero who is more powerful than me. So I decided that after you two were married for two weeks, your relationship will be stable, and maybe you will even have a baby. Then I will entrust everything of the Shen family to Fu Yao and help him. This is also the last thing I can do for you.”
“Dad has made up his mind. If I can, I want to take your mom and we will be the perfect couple and travel around freely. Baby, does that sound great?”
Mr. Shen smiled and reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes and then gently expressed his fatherly love with his lips. “Dad loves you.”
The video froze with the image of her father smiling in tears.
The ups and downs of emotions broke out at this moment. Shen Qieyi stretched out her hand to hold the big screen and burst into tears.
Everything she had was gone, she was now an orphan without parents. Her current marriage was a joke, existing and dying in name only.
She really had nothing left.
Fu Yao had always thought that Shen Qieyi wanted to bully him and force him to commit crimes by virtue of the Shen family’s great industry. But what did he know? How much did he know? That was why he hated her to the bone.
It was too late for Shen Qieyi to understand everything. Fu Yao would not believe the so-called truth at all, let alone believe that her father really appreciated him.
It was her fault. It turned out that it was a huge mistake to fall in love with Fu Yao from the very beginning. It turned out that her love could only be endless torture for him.
She hugged her head and cried in despair.
On the day of Shen Qieyi’s father’s funeral, the drizzle suddenly turned into heavy rain.
Everything was settled, Shen Qieyi sent everyone away.
In the graveyard, she held a flower in one hand and an umbrella in the other. She was unwilling to let the flower that she wanted to give her father be smashed by the raindrops, so she carefully held it in her arms.
Gazing at the tombstones of their parents buried together, Shen Qieyi stared at the photo of the two on the tombstones, lost in thought.
She had picked her father’s most precious picture of them as husband and wife from his wallet. Over the years, they knew each other very well. Time erased the edges and corners of each other, but it made them love each other even more.
Shen Qieyi’s whole life was dull and unambitious, but all she looked forward to was a love like what her parents had.
However, her own husband did not even attend her father’s funeral.
Shen Qieyi, who had suffered all kinds of sarcastic remarks, knew that this was Fu Yao’s greatest insult and contempt to her.
She heard her father’s sincere blessing and mother’s most eager expectation in her ears, which was to be a little princess forever, but now her marriage was nothing but a funny joke.
Shen Qieyi’s heart was filled with sorrow and her face was covered with tears.
Bai Jingyan, who had been standing and watching in the distance for some time, could not help but walk up and embrace Shen Qieyi from behind.
The umbrella in her hand fell to the ground.
In a corner not far away, Fu Yao, who had been observing the whole time, stared at her, watching her trembling body fall into another man’s arms, but she did not refuse.
Something flashed across Fu Yao’s eyes, but he decided to leave the next second.
Shen Qieyi’s heart skipped a beat the moment she was hugged. She turned around, not daring to breath heavily.
Bai Jingyan and her looked into each other’s eyes. He did not miss the light flashing in her eyes dimmed, but he tightened his embrace.
“Shen Qieyi, don’t be too sad. Please restrain your grief.”
He, who had always been sharp-tongued, could not comfort others and knew that such weak words were useless, but he hoped that she could feel his worries and concern for her.
Shen Qieyi forcefully pried open his clenched fingers and turned to face Bai Jingyan. She sincerely said gratefully, “Thank you.”
Bai Jingyan listened to her calm and unwavering tone, he fell silent.
He knew that she was already devastated and could not help sighing. “Leave him, he’s not worth it.”
Shen Qieyi looked pass his shoulders into the distance.
She knew that when she turned around and found that it was not him, her feelings for him might really be gone.
Standing in front of her parents’ graves, she swore that she had to live well for her own happiness.
Because of her father’s funeral, Shen Qieyi had asked for a week of leave. She intended to carefully deal with his father’s funeral and send his father on his last journey.
However, because of a recording tape, everything was now off track.
But she had made up her mind. She knew that the first thing she would have to do was to prepare for divorce.
On the second day after returning from the cemetery, Shen Qieyi was asking the lawyer for the necessary materials and procedures for a divorce.
She looked at the eloquent and talkative lawyer in front of her. He kept spitting out a series of unfamiliar professional terms, and she was a little confused.
Shen Qieyi took a deep breath to cheer up, she was about to interrupt the lawyer.
She just wanted to get a simple conclusion, but then the phone rang.
Shen Qieyi glanced at the caller and apologized to the lawyer. Then she got up and walked to the door to answer the phone.
“Yirou?” Shen Qieyi leaned against the wall and her toes tapped the ground. She weakly opened her mouth.
“Qieyi, I have an operation today, but I can’t go to the hospital due to some emergencies. Can you help me?” Mo Yirou acted coquettishly, not giving Shen Qieyi a chance to say no.
Shen Qieyi closed her eyes and reached out to press her temple to relieve her fatigue. Recently, her sleep quality was really bad.
Shen Qieyi did not immediately agree, but Mo Yirou did not let her go. “Please, please, please just agree to it. I beg of you, just this once…”
Shen Qieyi frowned and felt a little confused. However, she was not in the mood to chase after a reason, so she agreed softly.
Shen Qieyi said wearily without waiting for a response, “Take more care of your surgery. I can only help you this time. I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else.”
Mo Yirou listened to the default sound in her ear and knew that Qieyi had hung up the call on her. She cursed in her mind, “How shameless!”
But the moment she turned her head, her face was full of happiness again. She did all of these hoping to get attention from the man next to her.
On the other side, Shen Qieyi stared at the floor in a daze. After a long time, she turned around and entered the house.
“I’m really sorry. Thank you very much for your help today. But the hospital has a last minute emergency and I have to rush there. I hope you can draft a script as soon as possible.”
Shen Qieyi smiled with a haggard face. After getting the lawyer’s well-thought-out promise, she suppressed her hanging heart and left the office.
Before leaving, she thought about it and seriously advised the lawyer, “I don’t want any property, I just want to get out of this with a clean reputation.”
While the lawyer was stunned, she got into the car and stated the hospital name to the driver. Then she quietly curled up in her seat and turned to stare out of the window, lost in thought.
So many things had happened in the last few days and she was so exhausted that she couldn’t help but fall asleep.
The young taxi driver kept glancing at the strangely quiet lady. Seeing her hugging her chest and sleeping soundly, he was in no hurry and drove the car very steadily.
The car stopped, Shen Qieyi’s sharp sense woke up her immediately. With a light movement, the clothes on her shoulders slid off.
