Chapter 51
The day Mu Yunsheng came back, the sun was shining brightly, the wisteria on the white fence was blooming happily, he was holding Shen Haoxuan and Shen Linfeng’s hands, walking slowly from the other side of the street. Because they were traveling on a military plane, Shen Xinrui didn’t go to pick up the plane, but stayed at home and waited eagerly, and as soon as she saw them appear, she happily greeted them.
“Mom!”
“Mommy!”
The two little buns almost half a year have not seen Shen Xinrui, see her, have broken free from Mu Yusheng’s hand, jumping and running towards her.
Looking at her two babies, Shen Xinrui opened her hands, caught them and hugged them tightly, then touched this and kissed that. Her mood of excitement is difficult to calm down, tears involuntarily overflowed from the eyes, the two little buns and her heart, see her crying, also cried.
“Mom, XuanXuan misses you so much, so much, wooo……” Shen Haoxuan drawled and opened his mouth, wrapping his arms around Shen Xinrui’s neck and shouting.
Shen Linfeng a little more calm, only pouted and kissed Shen Xinrui, then choked: “Mom, wind wind also want you so much. It’s just that Papa Yunsheng is sick and we can’t leave him behind, so we’ve been waiting for him to get better before coming back.”
Gazing at the two children who had grown quite a bit taller, Shen Xinrui’s eyes were brimming with water, she sniffled and softly said, “Xuanxuan and Fengfeng are both good children, mom knows, it’s good to be back, it’s good to be back!” After speaking, she hugged them tightly into her arms again, feeling their temperature and heartbeat.
Her beloved children and the people who love her have returned, all of them have returned safely, so good, so good!
After half a day of warmth and touching, Shen Xinrui led the two children and Mu Yunsheng back home, and Auntie Gao and Uncle Wang also came back together. Not only that, just last night, has been traveling outside the Shen family two old also returned. Shen Xinrui didn’t dare to tell them what had happened in the past year, so she made up some nonsense to put them off, saying that Mu Yunsheng and the two children had gone out on an autumn excursion and would be back soon.
After all, it was their own daughter’s words, although the two old men were a bit puzzled, but they didn’t think too much about it, and just assumed that Mu Yunsheng and the two children had really just gone on an autumnal excursion, and that they would just wait for them to come back at home.
Seeing Mu Yunsheng and the two grandchildren returned safely, the Shen family’s two elders were especially happy, clamoring to go out to buy a large pile of vegetables back, the family have a good meal. Shen Xinrui didn’t say much, let them go, and only helped Mu Yunsheng to sit by the sofa. Auntie Gao said that his injuries weren’t all healed yet and he still needed to recuperate for a while.
After experiencing so many things, Mu Yunsheng still hasn’t changed, still looks as quiet as still water, eyes hanging down, letting Shen Xinrui manipulate. She helped him sit on the sofa and looked him up and down with concern.
If not surrounded by people, she really wanted to rip open his clothes to check to see how those injuries in the end.
Seemingly sensing Shen Xinrui’s concern, Mu Yunsheng slowly reached out his hand, paused in mid-air for a few moments, and then pulled Shen Xinrui’s hand, faintly saying, “Xinrui, I’m fine.”
Still that reassuring tone, Shen Xinrui’s heart settled, then revealed a smile, raised her hand and touched Mu Yunsheng’s slightly pale face, saying, “Look at you, you’ve lost so much weight, next ah, I must buy more supplements, and properly replenish your body.” After a pause, whispered softly, “Thank you Yunsheng, for me and the child, flat out suffered so much. In the future, our family of four, living a peaceful life, will definitely be very happy.”
At these words, Mu Yunsheng was slightly stunned, then turned his face to the other side, “Xinrui, Li Yuanhang, what about him?”
One sentence out, Shen Xinrui froze, Mu Yunsheng was seldom to speak so directly, or he seldom to pay attention to such things. Just today, why did it suddenly come out?
Unable to get an answer, Mu Yunsheng spoke again, and this time, his words were even more surprising.
“We are a legal couple, please don’t get entangled with him in the future.”
Hearing this, Shen Xinrui looked at Mu Yunsheng in dismay, really not expecting him to come up with such words. After a long time, she stiffly pulled the corner of her mouth, revealing a forced smile, “Yunsheng you’re thinking too much, I know, I won’t …… won’t.”
Mu Yunsheng did not reply, he let go of Shen Xinrui’s hand, then stood up and slowly walked towards the qin room in the side hall. He walked very slowly, step by step as if fumbling, Shen Xinrui thought he was not feeling well, and was about to follow to help him, Auntie Gao on one side suddenly walked over to assist him, and also said to Shen Xinrui with a smile, “Miss Shen, I will take care of Mr., you just play with the little young masters.”
Shen Xinrui’s movements stopped, she looked at Mu Yunsheng who had his back turned to her and didn’t say anything, and nodded her head after half a second. “Well, I’ll go check on the two children, you take good care of Yunsheng.”
After saying that, Shen Xinrui raised her steps and walked upstairs.
Mu Yunsheng stood at the doorway of the side hall, listening with his side ear to the sound of the footsteps fading away, he raised his eyes slightly, his ink-colored eyes unfocused.
When it came to dinner time, several members of the family had a big reunion dinner.
After half a year, the family finally all gathered safely at home, the crowd naturally ate happily, the two oldest members of the Shen family even drank a lot of wine, Shen Xinrui also drank some.
During the meal, everyone was still chatting happily, only Mu Yunsheng was still as silent as before, quiet as if he didn’t exist. Shen Xinrui noticed that his eating movements became very
sluggish, didn’t clip much food, and didn’t eat much. I don’t know why, she always felt that he was a little strange, although his behavior and demeanor was not much different from before, but she just felt that something was wrong.
Holding the doubts in her heart, after cleaning up the house and taking care of the two children to sleep, Shen Xinrui walked to Mu Yunsheng’s room, wanting to ask him about what happened during the six months when he was recovering from his illness.
When she arrived at Mu Yunsheng’s room, Shen Xinrui realized that he wasn’t there, so she headed straight for the balcony. According to the previous practice, if he wasn’t in his room at this time, he was most likely at the balcony.
Reaching out and pulling open the door to the balcony, sure enough, the lean back immediately came into view.
“Yunsheng.” Shen Xinrui called out.
Hearing the call, Mu Yunsheng’s figure moved, but he didn’t turn around, only responding lowly. “Uh-huh.”
Shen Xinrui walked towards him, “What are you doing here?” She asked.
Mu Yunsheng was silent, he lowered his eyes and didn’t know where he was looking, his face that had been wasting away for a long time was shrouded by the bright moonlight, and his eyes under his long bangs were hidden in the shadows.
His appearance looks like despondency, the lonely figure is heartbreaking.
It wasn’t hot summer anymore, and the temperature at night was a bit low, but Mu Yunsheng was still standing here in a thin shirt. When the night wind blew, Shen Xinrui couldn’t help but reach out and hold his hand resting on the railing. The touch was indeed cold, and she couldn’t help but frown: ”Didn’t I teach you? You have to know how to cherish yourself, it’s late fall now, the weather is so cold, you have to wear more. Also, don’t keep coming here to blow in the wind in the future, let’s go in.”
Shen Xinrui rambled on and on, and when she finished, she wanted to pull Mu Yunsheng into the room, only he stopped where he was and didn’t move, but instead tilted his face up slightly and said, “Flower scent, there’s no more.”
Five words heard Shen Xinrui froze, and it took a long time to react to what he meant.
It turned out that this balcony had been planted with a few trilliums before, and because of Shen Xinrui’s skill in taking care of them, there were flowers blooming all year round. Mu Yunsheng’s favorite thing was to stay on this side of the balcony, sometimes for a whole day, always leaning next to the blossoming trillium flowers, the whole person was surrounded by the fragrance of the flowers.
In fact, Shen Xinrui planted in the balcony of these plum trees, the fragrance of the flowers is not strong, do not sniff hard, generally do not smell out. She didn’t understand why Mu Yusheng liked them so much, and now that she saw him suddenly ask about them, she moved her gaze over to the corner.
Half a year without care, the few trilliums in the corner had lost a lot of ground, just about the same as the ones that withered in Mu’s family. Seeing this, Shen Xinrui retracted her gaze to look at Mu Yunsheng and said, “No one’s been home for too long, they’re all wilting, tomorrow I’ll organize them properly, they should be able to be restored to what they used to be.”
“Is that so ……”
Mu Yunsheng let out a light and inaudible sound, Shen Xinrui didn’t hear it and was about to ask him, when out of the corner of her eye she suddenly saw a person outside the garden downstairs.
The person outside the garden, the figure is extremely familiar, wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, the face is shrouded by the shadow of the street lamp, can not see. Even so, Shen Xinrui still recognized at once that it was Li Yuanhang.
Speaking of which, since that day of separation, Shen Xinrui had not seen Li Yuanhang for several days. She was torn inside, wanting to see him but not wanting to, although the doctor had already said that there was no major problem with him, she was still a bit worried about him. At this moment, suddenly see him outside, her heart immediately “flutter flutter flutter” accelerated speed jump up, eyes have been falling on that side, footsteps also rooted like, just said to go in, now do not want to move.
Mu Yunsheng is a very sensitive person, when he saw Shen Xinrui suddenly stopped talking, his face immediately became a little dark, he backhanded her hand and suddenly pulled her into his arms.
“Uh, Yunsheng, what’s wrong?” Only then did Shen Xinrui react, looking up strangely in Mu Yunsheng’s arms.
As usual, Mu Yunsheng didn’t say a word, only reaching out violently to land on the back of her head, and in the next moment, he lowered his head and kissed her, but not on the lips, but on the forehead.
Shen Xinrui was frozen by that sudden movement, and when she came back to her senses, she subconsciously reached out and pushed Mu Yunsheng away.
Mu Yunsheng stumbled and fell backward with unsteady steps, he stretched out his two hands and waved them around in mid-air, and in the end, he unexpectedly fell backward onto the ground. Seeing this situation, Shen Xinrui no longer cared about Lai Yuanhang outside, she was busy running over to help him up in panic.
“Yunsheng, Yunsheng! How are you doing? I didn’t do it on purpose, I really didn’t do it on purpose ……”
Shen Xinrui panickedly explained, both hands vigorously supporting Mu Yunsheng, whose head had bumped into the railing when he fell, breaking the skin a bit, and blood seeped out. He didn’t say a word, his single thin lips pursed tightly, and when he stood up, only then did he push Shen Xinrui away with one hand, and staggered himself to hold onto the railing.
“Lai Yuanhang is in, isn’t he!”
Mu Yunsheng held onto the railing, his face turning blue as he questioned in a deep voice.
Shen Xinrui bit her own lip, turning her head to look over at Li Yuanhang, he also saw what happened over here, and was climbing on the wall, looking like he was going to come over. Shen Xinrui looked at him, then at Mu Yunsheng, and finally, she slowly walked towards Mu Yunsheng, and then reached out her hand to encircle his lean waist, her head resting on his shoulder.
“Yunsheng, we are a legal couple. It was before, it is now, it will be in the future, and it will never change.”
With a low cry, he heard Lai Yuanhang, who had already jumped off the wall, pause in his steps, he looked up at the two people on the balcony who were in an intimate embrace, and after a long time, he silently left.
