Chapter 577 In this case, I will respect him for this cup
When Wang Xiu returned to her room, she found that Lu Yunhong and his son had already fallen asleep. She stood under the mask and took a look, then turned around and went out.
She didn't want to sleep yet, fearing that she would wake them up when she turned over in bed, so she finally decided to take a rest in bed.
Today's Jiang Ling is not as lonely as he was in modern times. It's just that she can no longer make advances and retreats with him. In this matter, she always feels that she owes Jiang Ling.
But when it comes to feelings, she feels that she and Jiang Ling have no feelings at all.
Now when I think back to the past, it suddenly seems like a dream, like the past events that have been sealed in my heart for a long time.
In the room, Lu Yunhong, who heard her voice, opened his eyes, and his dark pupils were extremely deep.
But soon, he heard Wang Xiu sigh again, thinking of her biological parents and eldest brother and sister-in-law.
She also thought that it was just water thrown away by her married daughter. So what if she was in modern times, maybe she was too busy with work to take care of her two elders.
However, she thought mockingly to herself that she had spilled the water a little too far.
Lu Yunhong still couldn't pretend to be calm. He got up, squeezed onto the couch with Wang Xiu, and then hugged her waist from behind.
He said a little tiredly: "Go to sleep, lean on me."
Wang Xiu leaned back, feeling pretty good. It was better than feeling sorry for herself here alone.
So she huddled in Lu Yunhong's arms and fell asleep unconsciously.
A dreamless night, a peaceful and good sleep.
The next morning, Pei Shan came and told them that Jiang Ling and Wang Rui went out together.
Once the Shen family's case was settled, it was time for them to set off, so Wang Xiu also asked Pei Shan to follow him and have a look. It would be best to close the case as soon as possible.
In the evening, Pei Shan came back first.
The Shen family's case was decided, and it was more serious than Wang Xiu thought. The family's assets were searched and he was sent to Lingnan.
However, the Shen family will definitely not be able to survive locally, and the prisoners assigned to them can also be restored to good status as long as they behave well.
Jiang Ling went to help deal with the Shen family's affairs and did not come back.
This night seemed particularly peaceful.
At the same time, Wang Lin got better and was able to get out of bed and walk around. He had nothing to say about the Shen family's case. Several adults discussed everything with Wang Rui.
In the blink of an eye, July came, and Ji Yunwei and Song Muting had already left.
It is said that the Chinese Valentine's Day in Jiangnan is the busiest. Wang Lin and Wang Rui originally wanted to wait until the Chinese Valentine's Day before leaving, but Lu Yunhong and Wang Xiu wanted to leave as soon as possible.
So the day of departure was chosen on the second day of July. On the first night, Jiang Ling finally made it back.
Wang Xiu is cooking in the kitchen. She rarely cooks, but everyone knows that the food she cooks is delicious.
But that night, for the first time, Lu Yunhong took his two uncles to a restaurant in the city, promising not to return until they got drunk.
However, in the villa, he still left behind his spy, Pei Shan, and Lu Chengxi, who might be looking for his mother at any time.
The food was ready, but there were very few people eating.
Pei Shan took Lu Chengxi to eat in the pavilion in the yard, leaving only Wang Xiu and Jiang Ling in the flower hall.
Wang Xiu suddenly remembered that when they graduated from high school, she and Jiang Ling were relatively speechless in a hot pot restaurant because they were worried about being separated after college.
But at that time, it was more about the reluctance to be separated. It was not like now, as if the two people just concluded their efforts for each other and then got together and parted.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Jiang Ling stood up and returned to his room with a jar of bayberry wine.
He said to Wang Xiu: "Can you have a drink with me?"
Wang Xiu nodded: "Okay."
After Jiang Ling heard this, he poured the wine glass for her.
The bayberry wine in this season seems particularly tempting, and the intoxicating blush is already smeared in the eyes before even entering the mouth.
Wang Xiu raised his glass to Jiang Ling.
She didn't say anything, Jiang Ling just smiled and drank it all.
This wine is not bitter, has a sweet taste, and has a very good taste.
Jiang Ling smiled and said: "They say that people have the opportunity to come to ancient times, what would they do? But in my opinion, the wisdom of the ancients is far beyond our imagination. Just talking about bayberry wine, I have never drunk it in modern times.
It’s such a delicious meal.”
Wang Xiu couldn't help but smile in agreement after hearing this.
But then, her eyes became a little moist.
If Jiang Ling could come earlier, she would have company, and they could share many things together and admire the wisdom of the ancients.
But now, I wonder if there is still an opportunity to have a pleasant meal like this?
Wang Xiu took the initiative and asked Jiang Ling: "Will you return to Beijing with us? Don't be Zhou Ling, just be yourself."
Jiang Ling smiled and then shook his head.
But this time, he paid homage to Wang Xiu.
The two of them had another drink, and Jiang Ling put down the glass and said, "I'll enjoy this meal, and you'll live your life well. We don't owe each other anything! I actually regret it. I underestimated your feelings for Lu Yunhong. Give it to me again."
Given a chance, I will say nothing and let you live peacefully."
Wang Xiudao: "Actually, things are quite stable now. We don't have any troubles."
Jiang Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly, yes, so he felt that all he had done was unnecessary.
"If you think Lu Yunhong is a villain or a gentleman, it won't affect your feelings for him. Then promise me not to check again after returning to Beijing, and don't ask anyone, including the emperor."
"When I was talking to Pei Shan a few days ago, he said something that woke me up. He said, we never live only one life!"
"Maybe, all the dissatisfaction, all the regrets, all the unwillingness, are all happening again, and I am here, as if just to witness it, I compromised."
"Time flies. I hope that many years from now I will look back on everything today and my heart will already be indifferent."
Just like you now, looking back on our past, you act so calmly. Jiang Ling thought, and just pursed his lips slightly, without saying anything.
Wang Xiu knew that she owed him, but this debt was caused by God's will, and she could not make up for it with her past feelings.
Because time had passed, she couldn't imagine what it would be like to hold Jiang Ling's hand again. But she knew very well that she was resisting in her heart.
When a person resists from the bottom of his heart another person's approach, no matter whether he was a former lover or not, and whether he is deeply in love now, to her, it is just a sigh of regret, and it is impossible to go back to the past.
Wang Xiu poured wine for Jiang Ling and said sincerely: "It would be best if you can figure it out. Don't worry about me in the future."
"I won't let myself suffer. What's more, if Lu Yunhong starts to dislike or hurt me, then there is no need for me to treat him well."
"It may be difficult to fall in love with someone, but it is easy to kill someone. You have to believe that if there is no emotion, women will only have endless conspiracies."
Jiang Ling finally felt relieved when he saw such a calm Wang Xiu.
He smiled, raised his wine glass and greeted each other from afar, saying, "In that case, I will toast him this glass."
The one he was referring to was Lu Yunhong.
It's a pity that Lu Yunhong is not here. Wang Xiu immediately said proudly: "That's fine, I'll drink it for him."
After finishing her words, she drank it down in one gulp.
But at this time, when she couldn't see him, Jiang Ling's eyebrows were filled with sadness, and his heart ached.
When he also drank the wine, he knew that his heart was completely dead at this moment.
