Chapter 17: rain
Since seeing Chu Qianqian in the hospital a few days ago, Shen Rong has not appeared in the hospital for several days.
Shen Xi didn't care about this, Shen Rong's reaction was what he expected, he was concerned about Zhou Mingmei. It's a pity that Zhou Mingmei was very calm, as if she didn't know Chu Qianqian's existence at all, and didn't respond.
Shen Xi was even more alert to Zhou Mingmei after the accident.
Li Mingxuan also surprised him. It's not that Shen Xi didn't feel Li Mingxuan's kindness towards him, but it was because he felt it that he was surprised. He doesn't believe what the newspapers say about the Li family betting on both ends, so what is Li Mingxuan doing? pity yourself? Shen Xi thought this guess was too ridiculous. According to the friendship between Li Mingxuan and Shen Ji, how could he have sympathy for him. In the last life, he had never seen this cousin since he was imprisoned until his death. He didn't think that he would be able to have a deep brotherhood in a new life. So what is Li Mingxuan for? Is there something in him that the Li family wants?
Shen Xi was never afraid to use the worst mind to guess others, but no matter how he thought, he couldn't guess what Li Mingxuan was thinking.
However, thinking of the reporter's report, Shen Xi's mouth evoked a mocking smile. The so-called three become tigers, he does not believe that Shen Ji is still in love with the Li Mingxuan brothers as always after watching these reports!
This day, Shen Xi did not go to the hospital as usual, but rushed to the cemetery early in the morning.
Today is Shen Xi's mother's birthday, and Shen Xi really doesn't want to go to the hospital on her mother's birthday to act as a father and son. In the five years abroad, except for the first year, every year after that, Lao K replaced Shen Xi to come here to worship his mother. Shen Xi thought that this time he could finally accompany his mother in person.
The cemetery in the early morning was quiet and solemn. Shen Xi held her mother's favorite lily of the orchid flower in her hands and shuttled quietly between the marble tombstones.
The flower language of lily of the valley is happiness. It is said that as long as you receive a lily of the valley, you will be blessed by the **** of luck. It's a pity that many people don't know another name of Lily of the Valley, "OurLady's Tears" woman's tears.
Shen Xi did not believe these statements, but she could only sigh silently when she thought of her mother's life.
Looking at her mother's tombstone from a distance, Shen Xi stopped in doubt. As he approached, Shen Xi was sure that she was not wrong. A bunch of white lily of the valley flowers lay quietly in front of her mother's tombstone, and the faint fragrance diffused around.
Shen Xi glanced around and saw that there was no one other than him, so who would send flowers today? Is it still my mother's favorite lily of the valley flower?
Old K's name flashed in Shen Xi's mind, and then she shook her head. Old K knew that he would come to the cemetery in person today and would not do these unnecessary things.
After thinking for a long time, Shen Xi couldn't think of who this person would be, so she could only suppress the doubts in her heart first. No matter who sent the flowers, Shen Xi was grateful to the other party for their kindness.
Gently put the flower in her hand with the flower in front of the tombstone, Shen Xi habitually sat down against her mother's tombstone, and began to tell what happened these days as always. When it was mentioned that Father Shen and Shen Ji had a quarrel and insisted on keeping Chu Qianqian by his side, a hint of mockery appeared at the corner of Shen Xi's mouth.
"Look, mother, he is such a selfish person. He keeps saying that he loves Fang Yun, but he has not found one after another, first Zhou Mingmei and then Chu Qianqian. He treats everyone He said that Shen Ji was his favorite son, but he knew that the existence of Zhou Mingmei and Shen Rong was a thorn in Shen Ji's heart. Chu Qianqian, who has only done it once, scolded his favorite son out."
Shen Xi sneered, "So he doesn't love anyone, he only loves himself."
A gust of wind blew, and the lily of the valley in front of the tombstone swayed gently with the wind.
Shen Xi's mouth slowly twitched, revealing a smile, "Mother, are you agreeing with my statement?"
The lily of the valley swayed even more with the wind.
The smile on Shen Xi's face became bigger and bigger, but her eyes gradually became wet with a smile. Mother Izumi knows, will she regret falling in love with such a selfish man? Would you regret giving up your life so easily in such a beautiful time?
Unfortunately, Shen Xi will never know the answer to these two questions.
After a quiet morning, Shen Xi left the cemetery at about noon.
Old K's phone rang in time, "In the cemetery?"
Shen Xi made a soft "hmm", "Just about to leave."
Old K chuckled, "Come back early, I'll wait for you to eat hot pot in the evening."
Shen Xi made a "hmm" again, thought about it and then confirmed, "Did you send flowers to the cemetery?"
"Send flowers?" Old K asked suspiciously, then denied it, "No, what's the matter?"
Shen Xi pondered, "I came to the cemetery this morning and found that someone came before me and gave my mother's favorite lily of the valley flower."
"Could it be your father?" Old K asked cautiously
Shen Xi sneered, "How could it be? My father is in the hospital with Chu Qianqian, how can I think of my mother."
"Would you like to check it?" Old K suggested
Shen Xi thought about it and rejected Old K's proposal, "Forget it, no matter who it is, it's all a matter of heart."
Hang up the phone, Shen Xi was too lazy to call for a car, and walked quietly along the quiet road in front of the cemetery, carefully deliberating in her mind what she would do next.
Shen Xi frowned, looking around the empty road to the left and right, no car passed by. The cemetery is located in the suburbs, and it is difficult to stop a car. Now the weather is not good. For the first time, Shen Xi regretted that after returning to China, she was used to taking a taxi and was lazy and forgot to buy a car.
The rain started at this time. It was only two or three drops of light rain at first, and soon the light rain turned into heavy rain and poured down. From time to time, a few thunderstorms sounded in the huge sound of rain, and the whole sky was as black as ink.
Shen Xi stood in the rain in embarrassment, and there was no place to shelter from the rain. The clothes were quickly wet, and the chill penetrated into Shen Xi's body little by little.
Shen Xi took out her mobile phone tremblingly, and it was automatically turned off when the water entered. Shen Xi thought bitterly, fortunately, Old K knew that he was here, and he would definitely come to find him in a while.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it didn't seem to stop at all. Shen Xi simply took off her jacket, propped it on top of her head, and found a high place to sit down. Anyway, the whole body is soaked wet, it doesn't matter whether it will catch a cold or not.
The harsh braking sound sounded on the side of the road, and Shen Xi looked over in surprise.
The rolled down car window revealed a familiar face.
"Come up!"
