She only remembered waiting for the cold drizzle to blow outside the window, and the windows were covered with rainwater. She closed her eyelids sleepily and fell into a deep sleep.
At this time, in another room, Sheng Yanxuan was leaning on the sofa, his eyes closed and he seemed to be asleep.
Wake up the next day.
The curtains blocked the light, making Chu Qingxue squint her eyes to adapt to the dim light in the room.
She twisted her sore arms to prop herself up. Her arms were sore due to poor sleeping posture yesterday. She moved her shoulders and stretched her limbs, and she suddenly felt very comfortable.
Chu Qingxue touched the quilt next to her and was reassured that it was ice cold. Could it be that he didn't come back last night?!
She lifted the quilt and got out of bed, put on her slippers and ran out of the bedroom barefoot.
There is still a glass of milk on the coffee table in the living room, and there is breakfast on the table.
Chu Qingxue was stunned when she saw these things. Was these prepared by Sheng Yanxuan?
A hint of sweetness filled her heart, and she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. This man was really too considerate.
Chu Qingxue turned her head and scanned every corner of the room, but saw no trace of Sheng Yanxuan. Her originally happy mood dimmed again.
Forget it, he is busy at work and probably went to the company.
Chu Qingxue was sitting at the dining table eating breakfast. The breakfast looked delicious, but she had no appetite.
She sighed and continued to drink the milk slowly from the glass.
Finally, unable to control her worry, she picked up her phone and sent a message to Sheng Yanxuan.
"Where are you? Are you angry?" Chu Qingxue carefully edited the text message and sent it out.
She was afraid that if she rashly went to find Sheng Yanxuan, he would be disgusted.
After a long time, no new text message popped up on the phone screen. Chu Qingxue stared at the phone screen blankly, feeling uneasy.
Is he really angry? Does he want to ignore himself?
Just when she was thinking wildly, her cell phone rang suddenly. Chu Qingxue quickly answered the phone, her voice filled with a hint of grievance, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
"Are you crying?" Sheng Yanxuan's voice was filled with doubts. He turned around and saw the sound of raindrops hitting the glass over there.
Chu Qingxue's eyes heated up when she heard Sheng Yanxuan's words, "Well..."
Her nasal voice was very thick and sounded pitiful. Sheng Yanxuan frowned slightly. He was silent for a moment and then slowly said: "Eat breakfast first and don't starve yourself. I'll wait for you downstairs."
"Okay, you are not allowed to leave me." Chu Qingxue said dullly.
"Don't worry, I won't leave."
As soon as Sheng Yanxuan finished saying this, he heard a blind sound of "beep-beep-" in his ear, and his phone went silent again.
Sheng Yanxuan looked at the hung up phone, his brows filled with a bit of gloom. He put down his phone and walked to the window, looking at the thin and long winter rain outside the window, his brows furrowed.
Chu Qingxue's originally worried heart was relieved. When choosing clothes, she specially picked a set of elegant and gentle skirts, which were neither ostentatious nor shabby.
When she walked downstairs, she saw Sheng Yanxuan standing at the top of the stairs waiting for her. She walked over quickly and threw herself into his arms, hugging his strong waist and resting her head on his strong and broad shoulders.
Sheng Yanxuan lowered his eyes and glanced at the head lying on his shoulder. He put his arms around her slender waist, held her in his arms, and patted her back gently with his big palm.
"Are you angry?" Chu Qingxue's angry voice came from above her head, with a hint of grievance.
Sheng Yanxuan pursed her thin lips lightly, her voice slightly tired and hoarse, "Who do you want me to be angry with?"
When Chu Qingxue heard his slightly sarcastic words, she raised her head and looked at him. She pursed her pink cherry mouth and looked like she was about to cry.
She apologized in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I won't mention anything about your mother in the future. I know you are in a bad mood, so I won't ask."
Hearing this, Sheng Yanxuan frowned slightly, and a strange color flashed across his eyes. He held Chu Qingxue steady, and locked his deep eyes on her cute little face, "You are right."
Hearing Sheng Yanxuan's unhesitating answer, Chu Qingxue's eyes widened with joy. She raised her head and looked at Sheng Yanxuan seriously, "Really?"
Sheng Yanxuan looked at her expectant eyes and couldn't bear to refuse her, "Of course."
Chu Qingxue shook her head again and said firmly, "But you were obviously angry, and you still lied to me." Her eyes were red, "You didn't go back to your room to sleep last night, right?"
Hearing what Chu Qingxue said, Sheng Yanxuan raised his eyebrows in surprise and then reacted.
It turned out that she knew that she had not gone back to her room to sleep.
"Did you trick me into falling asleep last night, huh?" Sheng Yanxuan pinched Chu Qingxue's round and straight nose, and raised her lips with a smile.
Chu Qingxue's cheeks turned red when she heard Sheng Yanxuan's words. She bit her lower lip and looked at him in shame.
"Don't worry, it's not because of you. I'm just preparing for my mother's memorial day today." After Sheng Yanxuan finished speaking, he added: "I'm not angry with you. On the contrary, I'm very happy that you are willing to understand me and listen to me.
"
Chu Qingxue's heart trembled slightly when she heard this. She looked into Sheng Yanxuan's deep and dark eyes, which reflected her shy face and Sheng Yanxuan's handsome facial features. The distance between them was so close that she could even feel each other's breathing.
Rhythm.
Chu Qingxue suddenly felt warm in her heart and smiled happily.
She stood on tiptoes and hugged Sheng Yanxuan, and kissed him hard on the cheek, "Thank you, Ah Xuan."
Her kiss was soft and sweet, and Sheng Yanxuan's heart skipped a beat.
"Then, are we going to see mom now?" Chu Qingxue pulled his finger, her eyes shining with hope.
"Do you want to go?" Sheng Yanxuan asked.
When Chu Qingxue heard this, she nodded quickly, "Of course I do. Mom hasn't seen me yet. As her daughter-in-law, I definitely want her to see me."
Looking at his wife's longing expression, Sheng Yanxuan rubbed the top of her hair lovingly, "Well, let's go."
The two drove to the cemetery in the suburbs. On the way, Chu Qingxue told Sheng Yanxuan some interesting stories from her childhood. Although Sheng Yanxuan was not a talkative person, he would occasionally interrupt when Chu Qingxue was chattering away.
The last two sentences.
An hour later, Chu Qingxue and Sheng Yanxuan arrived at the suburban cemetery.
The cemetery is located in a remote location, so not many people come to pay their respects.
It was raining lightly outside, and the cemetery seemed a little deserted.
Chu Qingxue followed Sheng Yanxuan, and the two of them walked towards the tombstone on the mountain holding an umbrella.
"The road is slippery on rainy days, don't run too far for fun." Sheng Yanxuan held an umbrella in one hand and held Chu Qingxue's hand with his other free hand.
Chu Qingxue turned her head and glanced at him, nodded with a smile, "I know!"
They walked to a certain tombstone on the top of the mountain and looked at the woman in the photo on the tombstone. Chu Qingxue was a little surprised.
Sheng Yanxuan's mother is really good-looking, even more beautiful than she imagined, and very elegant. She just doesn't know why that look in her eyes makes people feel inexplicably cold after looking at it for a long time...
