ENDING

CHAPTER 201 - HEART DISEASE

Cheng Menghan pursed her lips into a smile and said, I don't think you'll be bored, but I really hope that the following conversation between us is really appropriate.

Cheng Mengxi walked over to her writing desk and handed me the information, Logically speaking, this information should be confidential, and according to the customer's request, it should be confidential. However, I feel that you are a key right now, and someone needs your help.

I opened the first page of the document and saw Luo Tianyu's name and a two-inch photo of him from a few years ago. The information in the photo was also from a few years ago.

I didn't continue flipping through it, but raised my head to look at Chen Mengxi instead. I didn't know what she wanted to show me, but I didn't want to see it until I understood her intentions.

I think I should properly introduce myself. My name is Cheng Mengxiu, and I'm a psychiatrist. My father was also a psychiatrist, and Luo Tianyu's family once provided this information to my father. However, this patient refused to be treated.

Although I expected Luo Tianyu to be mentally ill, I did not expect Cheng Mengxi to be a cardiologist.

What mental illness is he suffering from?

Cheng Mengxiu looked at me, but didn't answer my question immediately. She instead said, Luo Tianyu refused to accept treatment until suddenly he came to find me before you decided to get married. He said he wanted to treat the illness.

Perhaps you don't understand how painful it is for someone who has been troubled by a mental illness for many years, much less how much courage and determination it takes for someone to accept treatment in the face of things they don't want to face. So when Luo Tianyu took the initiative to look for me, I was truly curious. What made him take this step?

The effect of psychotherapy depends on the patient's active cooperation to a large extent. It can be said that Luo Tianyu's treatment process has had quite a good effect during this period of time. However, it's clear that you provoked him yesterday.

I looked at Chen Mengxi. Her eyes weren't blaming me, but a kind of pity for her patient.

I said to Chen Mengxi, Is it because he has a mental illness that he can casually hurt others?

Luo Tianyu could not control his own actions when he was ill. At the very least, you should have felt it yourself. During this time, he had not done anything out of line with you. Of course, this did not include yesterday.

Cheng Mengxiu sighed lightly and put down the cup of water in her hand, Su Mo, I need you to help Luo Tianyu out of his current condition. If you don't have a deep grudge against him, and if you can show some mercy because he can't control himself, I hope that you can cooperate with me, even if only once, so that he can get better. If you agree, I will tell you more about him. If you object, I will continue to keep the cause of my patient a secret.

Although the person I love right now is no longer Luo Tianyu, although I still hate Luo Tianyu for breaking up Yi Fei and I, but I still miss that Luo Tianyu I first met, that pure and pure boy like the sun. I nodded at Chen Mengxi, How do you want me to help you?

I'm a psychiatrist, and if the patient doesn't tell me the truth, I have no way to treat him, so what I'm going to say next is Luo Tianyu's secret psychological state that he has been hiding for many years. I hope you can keep this secret after listening, and don't casually tell others, otherwise it'll be very difficult for me.

Alright.

Six years ago, Luo Tianyu accidentally met his mother in a house on the second floor of the villa and they had an affair. According to Luo Tianyu's description, the butler was neither as elegant as his father, nor as old as his father. Normally, he would be a very gentle and tactful person, but in his eyes, the noble and attractive mother was in bed with such a lowly man.

Cheng Mengxiu looked at me and said in a very gentle voice, Please imagine yourself as Luo Tianyu. Change your position and think about how he felt when he saw that scene.

Unconsciously, I closed my eyes and tried to understand what Luo Tianyu saw when he walked into the room to look for my mother.

In that instant, even my heart suddenly tightened. Although Luo Tianyu's mother had left that black and white legacy, I could still feel her beauty. Let alone Luo Tianyu, I didn't think that I would have been able to accept it at that time.

At that time, Luo Tianyu was still young and vigorous, so he didn't think of anything and rushed forward to beat up that housekeeper. However, the unspeakable thing was known to everyone in the entire mountain villa, including Luo Changfeng. There's no need to talk about the quarrel between husband and wife. Luo Tianyu's mother slowly couldn't stand the pressure and moral condemnation in her heart. Not long after that, she hanged herself.

I opened my eyes and looked at Chen Mengxi. At that moment, the white silk hanging in Luo Tianyu's mother's mourning hall rushed in front of my eyes.

Cheng Mengxiu let out a long sigh, This is the shame of his family. He clearly knew that if he wants to treat his mother, he needs to say it out loud, so all these years he hasn't been willing to go to the hospital. Moreover, he blamed his mother's death on himself, blaming himself for impulsively killing his own mother. The torment in his heart did not disappear with the passage of time. Instead, it became increasingly stronger. He was afraid to approach that place, because every time he did, he would think of the scene from that day, of his mother's death. He was very sensitive about the integrity of his family and their loyalty to each other. At the same time, he gradually developed a harsh attitude towards women's chastity. Perhaps he was afraid that the scene of his mother would happen to him. You should be able to understand this association, right?

I nodded at Cheng Mengxi's words and began to understand a lot of Luo Tianyu's actions, especially the words he said when he went crazy.

Although I can try to understand some of his actions from before, but the schemes in his mind are not within my understanding.

Cheng Mengxiu looked at me helplessly and shook her head, Su Mo, let's not discuss his character or anything else today. Can we just focus on his illness?

I also bit my lips and nodded. I don't know why, but the topic of today's conversation made it hard for me to tell what it felt like.

Luo Tianyu has only had one friend in recent years, and only Luo Ziyu is by his side. To him, they're the only family members left by his side, and he's afraid of losing them again. This is his first wish.

I shook my head. Just give it to me.

Fine. Although Cheng Mengxiu was a little disappointed, she still told me, He said that he had done something to let you down in order to keep the two of you by his side. However, when you were seeking death, he blamed himself and regretted it very much. But at that time, he simply could not control himself. He said that for almost a month, you were at the villa, and he admitted that it was a form of abuse towards you during that time, but people all had feelings for you. Every day, they would come to see you and take care of you, and they would be inexplicably filled with feelings of something, and then they would be afraid that the feeling would disappear, so when you woke up and clamored to leave, he chose the worst way to keep you.

Luo Tianyu's experience has caused him to be paranoid in nature and he is not good at expressing himself. However, he cannot control his feelings for you, and he also has a grudge against you for having a relationship with another man." He kept telling himself that he shouldn't and wouldn't fall in love with a woman like you, but on the other hand, he couldn't control his desire to make you stay. It was like there were two people fighting in his heart, and he wanted to prove that he didn't love you by hurting you. But when I finally can't fool myself, I found out that you hate him to the bone. He wanted to change his mind, wanted to walk with you, so he made up his mind to come and treat her.

Cheng Menghan took the cup that I had been holding in my hand without drinking a single cup. She placed it on the table beside me. Everyone makes mistakes. Trying to give him a chance is also a choice.

CHAPTER 202 - FORGIVE

I can do whatever I can to help, but I think it's better not to make the choice, I said to Cheng Mengxiu.

No matter what Luo Tianyu did to you in the past, he is truly sincere to you now.

I don't want to hear that. You said it, but today I'm going to talk about his illness.

After a moment of silence, Cheng Mengxi said to me, Alright, since you insist, let's talk about his illness. I'm afraid that the thing that will irritate him the most right now is your attitude towards other men. So, I hope that you can try your best to not provoke him when he hasn't fully recovered yet. Also, I feel that Luo Tianyu is hiding some things from me."

I looked at Cheng Mengxi's slightly creased brows and Cheng Mengxi hurriedly explained, What I'm saying is not to conceal your feelings here, but the matter of his mother. I feel that he still has something he hasn't said yet. I don't blame him for having to tell me, but if he still hasn't released what he's hiding, it will be hard to completely untie his mind. You're the one he wants to sit down and chat with, and I think it's more appropriate for you to try to lead him to say it.

There's still concealment? I looked inquiringly at Cheng Meng Xi. To be honest, what Cheng Meng Xi said to me today had already moved me quite a bit. Although the grudge I had against Luo Tian Yu in my heart hadn't lessened much, I still finally understood why his reaction in the shade that day and why when Wu Xiu mentioned Luo Tian Yu's mother's death, he purposely avoided her.

In the whole mountain, the only person who knew about what had happened all those years ago was Sis Wu.

This really isn't a glorious matter. If it was me, I would choose to avoid this topic. However, there is still a way to hide such an unacceptable fact.

In my experience, what Luo Tianyu said was the truth, but there are some things that he didn't tell me. Every time I induce him to speak, he would break out in a cold sweat, and I think the parts that he didn't tell me are the true knot in his heart.

I listened to Cheng Mengxi's analysis, and her eyes were full of certainty. I think she was very confident.

I told Cheng Mengxi, Alright, I'll try my best.

Cheng Mengxi sincerely thanked me. Though I don't think she needs to say it.

He didn't know if it was because Cheng Mengxi was a doctor at heart, but she was very good at deciphering the inner workings of other people's hearts.

I thank you as a doctor for my patient, Cheng said, even though I didn't say anything.

I stood up from the sofa. As I prepared to leave, I asked Cheng Mengxi, I'm not a psychiatrist, so do you need to teach me some skills before I leave?

Cheng Mengxi shook her head confidently at me. "There's no need to tell Luo Tianyu that your sincerity is better than all your tricks. If you really want me to say something, I just want you to be more or less sincere when you try to coax Luo Tianyu. Even if it's just a tiny bit.

I said to Cheng Mengxi, Really? I'm afraid it's a little difficult, and I can only say that I will do my best not to let him see that it's too fake.

Cheng Mengxiu lightly pursed her lips as the corner of her lips moved. I said to her, Goodbye.

When I turned around to leave, Cheng Mengxiu finally couldn't help but say to me, Su Mo, I know you don't want to hear it, but I still want to say that for someone like Luo Tianyu, it isn't easy to fall in love with someone. Once he falls in love, he will be more sincere than most people. Luo Tianyu has been searching for the right way to get along with you, and I feel that you can choose the way you want to get along. That way, you'll feel comfortable, and he won't have to be too tired.

I slanted my eyes at Cheng Mengxi and said, Miss Cheng, you are beyond the scope of a doctor. If you are so keen on the feelings of others, you might as well focus on yourself. It's not easy to be serious with someone like Tian Long.

Without thinking, Cheng Mengxiu said to me, I don't think I'm suited for it.

In fact, from my point of view, the character of a Beamon and a person like Cheng Mengxi aren't compatible either. The personality, personality, and hobbies between the two of them, even without asking, must be different.

But I still said to Cheng Mengxi, But I think it's quite suitable.

Cheng Mengxi is a smart woman, and when I said that, she gave a wry smile and replied, I know what you want to say. I also know that being suitable isn't something an outsider can decide. I'm sorry.

When I walked out of Cheng Mengxiu's room, I saw Han Peng waiting for me by the door at the safe entrance.

Why aren't you waiting for me in the car?

Where the eyes can't see, there's no need to talk about protection.

Han Peng and I walked out of the apartment together. Han Peng couldn't help but say, You guys really talked for a long time.

Don't tell anyone we're here when we get back.

Yesterday, he said that he didn't care about who Luo Tianyu met, but today, he's come knocking on his door.

I looked at Han Peng's expression and asked her, Do you think you're seeing things? I'm not the kind of woman that doesn't care about him at all like you said.

I wanted to see if this Han Peng, who thinks that he has a fire eye crystal, could differentiate between them. If she thinks that I still care about Luo Tianyu, then it means that I can try to help Luo Tianyu.

Han Peng wasn't very reserved when he spoke to me because I was his employer. He directly said, Don't think that I'll believe you just because you speak your mouth.

By the time I returned to the villa, it was already noon. Aunt Wu's food had already been prepared, but Luo Tianyu still hadn't come down.

Sister-in-Law Wu said worriedly, Since yesterday, Young Master shut himself in his room and refused to come out. Even if he's in a bad mood, he should at least have some food.

I looked at the dishes on the table and asked Wu to bring some to me.

Sister-in-law Wu placed the tray on the table and handed it over to me. She looked at me with a pleased expression and instructed, Persuade the young master. No matter how troubled he is, don't get yourself into trouble.

I carried the tray to Luo Tianyu's room and turned the handle of the door, but it didn't turn at all. Luo Tianyu had actually locked the door.

I knocked on the door with my free hand, but didn't see Luo Tianyu open the door. Instead, I slapped the door with my palm. Luo Tianyu, open the door, it's me.

The moment I finished speaking, not long after I was waiting, I heard the sound of the door slowly opening. Luo Tianyu did not look very good, and his spirit was a little sluggish.

I walked around Luo Tianyu and walked into the room. I placed the plate on the small round table and said, Eat something.

Sister-in-law Wu prepared two dishes for us. I picked up one of the bowls and chopsticks, took a bite first, then pretended not to care and asked Luo Tianyu, Are you hungry? Do you want to eat together?

Luo Tianyu looked at me with a dejected expression. After hesitating for a dozen seconds, he walked to the opposite side of me and sat down.

Did it hurt you that day?

Even though it was just a few words, Luo Tianyu paused several times when he said it. There was a look of guilt on his face, but I didn't blame or forgive him for what had happened. It wasn't because he was mentally ill, but because he realized that if there wasn't love, many things could be reduced to nothing.

Yes.

I replied naturally to Luo Tianyu, but one word of mine made him bite his lip.

I laughed at myself before looking at Luo Tianyu and said, But that bit of pain is nothing to me.

Luo Tianyu looked into my eyes, his eyes twinkling as he asked me, If I say that I did not mean it, would you forgive me for what I did? including the ones from before, can you forgive them?

CHAPTER 203 - NO LOVE IS A COVER UP THAT LOVE IS REAL

I looked at Luo Tianyu and told him, You should be clear in your heart that many things can't be written off with a single apology. What happened is happening, so you have to accept it and try to weaken it. Do you have to place it in your heart and lick it every day at the most obvious place?

Luo Tianyu thoughtfully lowered his eyelids, then raised his head and looked at me. Have your experiences faded?

I shook my head. Some things are too profound to understate. I can only say that I've accepted it.

Luo Tianyu picked up his bowl and chopsticks, picked up a few dishes, and began to eat in silence.

I also became silent. Thinking of what Cheng Mengxiu had said about the appropriate way to get along, I felt that it would be difficult for us to get along. Even if we sat like this, we didn't know what to say.

In retrospect, the conversation between us seemed to have something to do with our own goals.

In the end, neither of us finished eating, and we both put down the bowls in our hands.

Luo Tianyu looked at our rice bowls and sighed. Can we go for a walk?

I nodded to Luo Tianyu. Luo Tianyu appeared to be very quiet today. As we casually walked in the courtyard, neither of us said anything for a long time.

As I walked, Luo Tianyu suddenly stopped and stood there motionless. When I realized that I had already walked four or five steps away, I realized that Luo Tianyu was not by my side. I turned around and glanced at Luo Tianyu, who was standing behind me.

Are you tired?

Su Mo, do you still remember that time I asked you to go boating, but you rejected me?

I nodded at Luo Tianyu. Yes.

Luo Tianyu looked at me brightly. I really want to try. Can you accompany me?

Seeing my hesitation, Luo Tianyu pursed his lips and said, I don't have any other intentions, just accompanying me once. I've never experienced anything like this before.

If it wasn't for Cheng Mengxiu asking me for help, no matter how sincere Luo Tianyu was, I wouldn't have nodded in agreement.

I sighed in my heart and reluctantly nodded my head.

Tianyu seemed to heave a sigh of relief as he smiled happily at me. Then let's go tomorrow.

I nodded my head. Although I was in the spacious courtyard, I felt depressed. I told Luo Tianyu, I won't be eating at home tonight. I want to go out.

Luo Tianyu asked me, Do you want to go out to eat? Together?"

No, I want to go see Tian Lu and the others.

Luo Tianyu said with a hint of disappointment, Be careful then. Come back early.

Luo Tianyu's sudden attitude of being a vulnerable group made me uncomfortable. It was not as reassuring as before.

Han Peng accompanied me to the Dream Club because it was already business time when I arrived. I could see a lot of customers one after another. It seemed that the business was pretty good.

Tian Lu didn't expect me to come. When she came to greet me, she saw Han Peng by my side, who had a questioning look in his eyes.

I introduced him to Tian Lu, This is Han Peng. He is here to protect my safety. Help me welcome him.

Tian Lu nodded her head in understanding. Then, she snapped her fingers at the waiter behind her, who then led Han Peng to the bar.

Seeing Han Peng leave, Tian Lu asked me, What happened? It can't be that Luo Tianyu hired someone to monitor you, right?

I looked at Han Peng, who had already started drinking his drink. I'm not sure, but he's still a good person.

Tian Lu pointed at an empty chair at the side. Let's sit over there. Why did you recall it today?

I can't explain why, but I couldn't get a breath of air out of the villa in the middle of the mountain.

Really? Such a big house, such a good environment, you say you can't breathe? Do you know how many female compatriots would want to beat you up when you talk like that? Tian Lu teasingly looked at me and laughed. Did you miss him too much?"

I didn't mind that Tian Lu would laugh at me, but I didn't deny it. At the same time, I told Tian Lu the truth and said that Luo Tianyu wanted me to go with him to row the boat tomorrow.

Tian Lu's face sank as she looked at me. Don't tell me you agreed?

I don't want to either, but I don't know if it's appropriate to refuse at this time.

Seeing my troubled expression, Tian Lu pulled me to a seat and asked me what was going on.

After a moment's hesitation, I told Tian Lulu that Luo Tianyu had a mental illness and that his doctor hoped that I could cooperate with her treatment.

Even though I told this to Tian Lu, I didn't go into detail about Luo Tianyu's family humiliation.

Tian Lu said, No wonder, and then she looked at me seriously, Su Mo, would you have feelings for Luo Tianyu? If he had been nice to you, would you have moved on?

I shot a glance at Tian Lu and poked my chest with my finger, What do you think I am? My heart is so small, I can't hold so many people. Some feelings will be etched into my heart once they have been carved into it. If I can't move forward bravely, I will lose the ability to love.

Hearing my words, Tian Lu let out a long breath.

I tilted my head slightly to look at Tian Lu. You don't seem to want me to fall in love with Luo Tianyu, do you?

Tian Lu rolled her eyes at me, Big Sis, don't forget that the video you recorded is still on my phone. Every time I see it, I will be very touched. Did you know that? You made me believe in love, so don't let me down.

I smiled at Tian Lu and looked around, Business seems to be going well, where is Ziyi? Why isn't Ziyi here?

En — — Tian Lu hesitated for a moment. A trace of mysteriousness that I could not understand flashed in her eyes, He is not here. Oh right, should I vent it out?

I looked curiously at Tian Lu, How do I vent this?

Tian Lu stood up and pulled me up at the same time, Follow me.

Tian Lu let the waiter open a stack of beer for her, then she put a microphone into my hands and said to me, You can wail like a ghost here. Once you have vented your anger enough, I'll carry you back. I'll take care of the bodyguard outside.

If I was the only one left in the private room, then I would be spending my days in this kind of place, but I've never sung a song before. I don't know if Tian Lu's so-called method of venting was effective, so I picked up the beer on the table and took a sip.

When the music started drifting, I unconsciously followed the rhythm of my heart, Is it love that makes you want to say something but stop, love that makes you unable to control yourself, the happiest is me, the day I miss you, I won't change my determination just because you don't understand. In a blink of an eye, my life, turning around is my entire life, the love I have for you is something I have done for my whole life. Even if you don't know it, I will still love you until my breathing stops …

I couldn't help crying because I missed, because of all the beauty and pain of the past, and when I couldn't help raising my hand to wipe away my tears, a man's voice sang behind me: That shoulder rub was destined for my life, that look back foretold my life, and so I began, the dispute between love and not love, not love is to cover up love is real …

The microphone fell from my hand, and I jerked my head back. Even though it was only a few steps away, I felt as though I was a thousand miles away.

I was afraid that I would become a woman outside of his life, but when he stretched out his hands towards me with a doting expression like before, I actually rushed towards that embrace without any hesitation.

I think I jumped up in excitement. When I landed in Yi Fei's embrace, my arms were tightly wrapped around Yi Fei's neck. My feet were already in the air, and my legs were at Yi Fei's waist.

Yi Fei's cheek rubbed against mine. Wife, you're too light!

My chin rested on Yi Fei's shoulder, and I was filled with satisfaction at the way Yi Fei addressed me. I resisted the sobs in my voice.

Yi Fei confidently said to me, I am measuring it with my heart, it is more accurate than any measuring device!

I deliberately asked Yi Fei, Aren't you angry with me? Didn't you want to ignore me? Why are you still calling me your wife?

Yi Fei's lips were next to my ear, and his voice was gentle and soothing as he said to me, Do you really think that I would get angry with my silly daughter-in-law? Do you think it's easy to pretend to hate you?

CHAPTER 204 - REASONS

Yi Fei was able to easily clear the haze in my heart. I mockingly asked him, Then why don't you continue pretending?

It's rare for you to take off your mask, why are you still putting on an act? You delivered yourself to my doorstep, and your posture of throwing yourself into my arms is so beautiful! Yi Fei gave me another kiss on the cheek, My wife, let me have a good look. It seems that I haven't seen you for centuries.

I buried my face in Yi Fei's neck and subconsciously said to him in a spoiled manner, No.

I closed my eyes and the corner of my mouth kept rising. It wasn't until Yi Fei lightly bit my ear with his teeth that I smiled and raised my head.

My lips were covered by Yi's lips as soon as I lifted my head. A warm current began to spread from my lips to fill my entire body, and time stood still for a moment, as if we were the only two people in the world, and the pendant around our necks was uncomfortably attached to each other at that moment.

If it weren't for the sudden push of the door to the private room, I don't know if Yi Fei and I would have been like this forever.

Damn, I didn't see anything! Zuo Ziyi barged in boldly, using ten fingers that were clearly separated from each other to cover his eyes as he spoke to the two of us with a smile.

Tian Lu caught up with Zi Yi from behind. She slapped Zi Yi's shoulder with all her might and scolded him, Why are you so hateful!

Zi Yi also innocently spread out his hands at Tian Lu, How would I know that Big Sis is coming over. Boss and I are still talking about something, but the kung fu person that went to the toilet is gone. Do you think I can not look for him? Coincidentally, a little brother said he saw Boss entering this room, so I entered. Who knew that two people would meet here in private!

Tian Lu looked at me apologetically and said, I was only focusing on protecting you from that girl and had forgotten about that guy.

Being seen by two people in this position, I loosened my grip on Yi Fei's waist and wanted to come down. However, Yi Fei didn't loosen his grip and glared at Zuo Ziyi, Cut the crap, won't you just close the door and leave? I'll take your shares in another inkling."

Zuo Ziyi hurriedly raised his hand and told Yi Fei, Don't! You two have a long life ahead of you, coincidentally my sister came by today. There are some things I don't think it's necessary for you to keep hidden from her, so that she won't be alone with us all day.

I still jumped down from Yi Fei's embrace. This way, as Tian Lu and Yi Yi looked at each other, they would feel somewhat embarrassed after a long time.

However, Yi Fei and I still held each other's hands in a very natural manner. However, Yi Fei looked at Zi Yi with some displeasure. You talk too much.

I curiously asked Yi Fei, What is it? Why don't you want to tell me?

Yi Fei smiled comfortingly at me, There's nothing much to say, just take care of yourself peacefully. Don't think about anything, don't do anything, just wait for me.

I said to Yi Fei, I don't want to be kept in the dark. Because he didn't know anything the whole time, his daydreaming days really weren't very good.

Zi Yi couldn't help but say to me, Sis, our boss didn't want you to come into contact with anything dangerous, so when he heard that Luo Tianyu wanted you to be the project manager of Golden Water Bay, he went there to mess things up. He was afraid that the closer you get to the core, the more dangerous you will be.

Yi Fei looked at me and asked, Were you angry with me yesterday?

I shook my head at Yi Fei. I can't get angry at you. But when will I get there without touching them?

Don't worry about that, boss has his own ideas. Just wait for the news of our victory.

Zi Yi said proudly, as if victory was right in front of him.

Yi Fei rolled his eyes at Zi Yi's repeated attempts to curry favor. No one will take you for a mute if you don't speak.

Zi Yi stuck out his tongue and pulled Tian Lu closer to him. Darling, please speak for me.

Tian Lu glanced at Ziyi, What do you want me to say?

Of course, let me know about this. Actually, I really think that letting me know will help us a lot. We need you to be a spy for us.

Seeing that Zi Yi was getting more and more excited as he spoke, Yi Fei picked up a wine bottle on the table and assumed a posture of wanting to fight for justice. Zi Yi hid behind Tian Lu, Darling, quickly protect me.

Not only did Tian Lu ignore Zi Yi's pleas for help, she even took a step back, You really should fight this time.

Seeing that Tian Lu wasn't going to help him, Zi Yi curled his lips and said to the two of them, You guys are just uncomfortable. Why do you have to make things so complicated when things can become so simple?

Ziyi, if they don't want to tell me, then tell me. Let's go out and talk. As I said that, I loosened my grip on Yi Fei and walked towards Zi Yi. Yi Fei took a deep breath and continued to hold my hand tightly. He said somewhat helplessly, I really don't want to relax.

I thought that Yi Fei was prepared to explain things to me, so I followed him to sit down. I listened attentively, wanting to know what was in there that I didn't know.

However, Yi Fei asked me, Do you know of Tianyu's plan?

Do you mean the overall development of the area around Gold Water Bay?

Yi Fei nodded, Tianyu told you everything.

Luo Tianyu didn't tell me much, Yi Fei explained hurriedly, afraid that he would think too much.

Yi Fei smiled and patted the back of my hand. I didn't mean that.

Yi Fei took out his phone, opened a photo in the photo album, and said, Let me show you something.

The photo on Yi Fei's phone was also like a plane map, but it was a rectangular terrain structure and its area wasn't too big. I couldn't help but ask Yi Fei, What is this?

Yifei smiled at me and said, Don't you know this place? This is the plan of Red Lane. I plan to buy part of the surrounding area and build an orphanage there. What do you think?"

I couldn't help but look at Yi Fei. Did you take that piece of land at Red Lane?

Yi Fei scratched my nose with his index finger, Can you not tell me I stole it?

I felt that I had misspoken. I looked apologetically at Yi Fei, Why would you want to build an orphanage?

Yi Fei looked at me with a bit of heartache. If you had met an orphanage instead of Red Lane, maybe we wouldn't have had such a hard time loving each other.

I couldn't help but gently lean my head against Yi Fei's shoulder. Such a support would let me temporarily break away from my regret. Yi Fei gently kissed my forehead and hugged my shoulder, causing the distance between us to become even closer.

I still asked Yi Fei worriedly, Yi Fei, I don't understand. I don't understand why you suddenly chose to go against Luo Tianyu.

Although I would be like many other women who wish to hear Yi Fei tell me that he wanted me back from Tianyu, Yi Fei shouldn't have known that Luo Tianyu was using him to threaten me.

Yi Fei looked at me affectionately. Because you still can't be considered a reason?

At that moment, being gazed upon by Yi Fei's eyes, my thoughts inevitably became a little absent-minded, a little addicted to the feeling of being loved by Yi Fei. Such doubts also became indifferent at that moment.

Don't be so hasty to make an enemy out of Luo Tianyu. I feel that now is not the time.

What I still cared about was what was in Luo Tianyu's hands. I had always been worried that Luo Tianyu would do something unfavorable to Yi Fei. At least, it wasn't too late when I brought that item back.

I will have a fight with Brother Tianyu. I won't go too far, don't worry.

Yi Fei comforted me, but to me, he still avoided the topic that Zi Yi had just raised. I still didn't know what was going on.

So I couldn't help but ask, Yi Fei, how exactly do you want to make an enemy out of Luo Tianyu? Why should you forgive me? I did something to hurt you.

Yi Fei's hand pinched my shoulder, Idiot, your acting skills are really bad, don't you know that? If I can't see the struggle and pain in your eyes, how can I say I love you? If it's just because I'm a brother, then I don't have the complete trust in my brain. Why should I protect you? However, the matter of marrying Ziyu was the only thing I could do at that time. I will protect you and explain everything to you in the future.

CHAPTER 205 - CHANGE

I shook my head on Yi Fei's shoulder, I don't need to explain. Let's even it up so I can feel better. I just hope that no matter how much time has passed, we can still love each other like this. One day, we can be together without thinking about anything.

Perhaps it was because Yi Fei and I were too bored, but at some point, Tian Lu had pulled Zi Yi out of the room, leaving Yi Fei and I behind.

Yi Fei hugged me and said, With my understanding of Luo Tianyu, he won't let you go so easily. He stole the thing I care about the most, and I will also take away everything he cares about. There will always be a way for me to take you back from him.

As a woman, it was true that she was not moved when she heard these words. However, it was hard to tell where the faint uneasiness in her heart came from.

Yi Fei gently caressed my hair. Wifey, let's go on vacation!

Holiday? The two of us? My hand couldn't help but looped around Yi Fei's waist. Although being able to be with him was a very desirable thing to do, I didn't think that we would have the chance to do so.

Yi Fei held my hand even tighter and said regretfully, "Although I really want to have only the two of us, I'm afraid that it will be hard for you to leave. However, your birthday is coming up in a few days, so I hope that I can accompany you. We don't have to go too far, so we can go to City H. The scenery and environment there are pretty good, we can go back and forth on the same day.

I checked with Yi Fei again. You mean the four of us together?

Yes, if you have no other choice but to let someone follow you, don't tell them. Just take it as a coincidence.

Being able to fly with Yi was the best birthday present, let alone a vacation. Although you only want our two worlds, don't even mention Luo Tianyu and Ziyu, it's hard to get rid of them. Simply saying that Han Peng, who is with me all day, is a problem.

Yi Fei and I both felt a little helpless, but if we didn't use such a method, let alone getting along with each other, it would be hard to even meet again.

I nodded, though I thought it was a little awkward.

Because Han Peng was following her and also worried that she would know something about passing it on to Luo Tianyu, he didn't linger that night. Although he was reluctant, he eventually returned home in the middle of the night.

Han Peng didn't say anything along the way. When I got out of the car, he leaned against the car and said, It seems like you're in a good mood after this trip.

I looked at Han Peng. I didn't know if she was just casually talking or hinting at me. Han Peng pursed his lips and asked, How many people can a single person have in his heart?

I said to Han Peng, One is enough.

However, Han Peng suddenly said to me, If it's mutual love, why didn't you choose to be together and instead hurt the other?

Looking at Han Peng's expression, I think she might have guessed something. If I was also an ignorant bystander like Han Peng, I would also think that this kind of behavior was shameful. But who actually caused this kind of injury?

No matter what, Yi Fei and I were married. Although I did not mean to meet, I would not say that I felt good about it. However, I also did not feel ashamed or remorseful.

However, when I entered the villa, Luo Tianyu was standing by the staircase with his hand on the banister. He asked, You're back?

I asked Luo Tianyu calmly, It's already so late, why aren't you asleep yet?

I'm a bit worried that you're not back this late.

Perhaps because I saw Yi Fei tonight, I didn't look into Luo Tianyu's eyes like usual. Instead, I said to him in a somewhat evasive manner, I'm not a child, what's there to be worried about?

Although I didn't look up, I knew that Luo Tianyu's gaze was always on me. As I walked past him, I felt a little uncomfortable. You should go to bed early.

I heard Luo Tianyu say a good word behind me before I closed the door.

The next morning, Mrs. Wu called us downstairs for dinner as usual. Luo Tianyu had changed into casual clothes when he was sitting at the table. I really hoped that he was just talking, but he looked very serious.

After breakfast, Luo Tianyu saw that I wasn't ready, so he told me that he was waiting for me downstairs.

I nodded to Luo Tianyu and was about to go upstairs when Luo Tianyu told me that he had already prepared the clothes for today and placed them on my bed.

I changed my clothes and walked down the stairs. I noticed that Luo Tianyu had changed his clothes at some point, but what made me feel awkward was that no matter how I looked at us, we were both dressed as lovers.

I stopped walking and hesitated, wanting to go back to my room to change. However, Luo Tianyu said from behind me, It's just a set of clothes, why are you so concerned about it.

I pursed my lips, sighed helplessly, and chose to give in.

Luo Tianyu didn't choose a private club or anything like that. Instead, he took me to the center of the lake in R City, where there was a large artificial lake. When we arrived, there were many people renting boats, and there were already a few boats on the lake.

Luo Tianyu's expression was a little excited. Luo Tianyu didn't bring anyone with him when I left today, even Han Peng was left at home.

Luo Tianyu looked at the boat rental at the ticket office and asked, Which one should we row?

I glanced at the boat on the lake. I don't know how to paddle, and I've never rowed before. Would it be simpler if I stepped on it?

Luo Tianyu followed my gaze and looked over. I didn't row, but using the oars is more like rowing a boat, right?

I saw that Luo Tianyu seemed a little eager to give it a try. Since I was accompanying him today, I allowed him to nod my head. Then let's row.

Luo Tianyu smiled happily and prepared to queue up to buy a ticket.

Looking at the heavy bag of snacks Luo Tianyu was holding, I felt that it wasn't convenient to line up with my stuff, so I said to him, Give me the stuff.

No need, it's too heavy. As Luo Tianyu spoke, he stubbornly carried a sack of food to the queue.

Because there were so many people, it was Luo Tianyu's turn after a while. He came back in a hurry, clutching his ticket. Before boarding the boat, the staff put on a life jacket, Luo Tianyu put down the bag in his hands.

We only have two people, what's the point of bringing so much? We can't eat.

Luo Tianyu was a little embarrassed as he said to me, Besides accompanying Ziyu to the amusement park, I've never come out to play. I don't know how much I should take. At least it's better to have more than less.

After putting on our life jackets, Luo Tianyu and I boarded the ship together.

The two of us sat down facing each other. Each of us had a pair of oars by our side, because we couldn't. When we tried to row, we found that we were heading in the opposite direction.

Luo Tianyu's face turned red with embarrassment, Sorry, I was stupid.

There's no need to apologize for such a thing, and neither do I.

The two of us experimented several times before we finally got the boat moving. The wooden oars were still heavy, and after paddling for a while I felt a little sore in my arms.

Luo Tianyu was still trying his best to paddle the boat, but he told me that he was very tired. Don't move, just sit down.

I stopped, and Luo Tianyu, who had gradually grasped a bit of skill, became less nervous and began to move leisurely towards the center of the lake.

Once in a while, a family of three would pass by. Luo Tianyu would always look at them for a while, but the one he looked at the longest was a couple sitting side by side on a boat. The boy would put his arm around the girl beside him.

Luo Tianyu pursed his lips and took a moment to recover his wits. Then he looked at our boat.

Luo Tianyu grabbed the oars with both hands and paddled back to the shore. I asked him if he wanted to leave.

Luo Tianyu quickly shook his head, Let's change ships!

Why?

Luo Tianyu raised his head to look at the sun, I didn't notice it earlier, but this type of ship doesn't have a sun shelter. It will be very sunny soon.

CHAPTER 206 - HARD TEETH

As Luo Tianyu spoke, his speed began to increase. However, as he neared the shore, it could be seen that Luo Tianyu was a little tired, and his breathing became a little heavier.

Luo Tianyu jumped onto the shore, and very quickly, he switched to the kind of ticket that could only be used on a boat.

After changing the boat, Luo Tianyu looked at me with a relaxed expression. He smiled as he looked at me, then took out a bottle of drinks from the bag and gave it to me. He opened one bottle and gulped down half of it.

Were you tired just now?

Luo Tianyu smiled and said, I should have listened to you just now.

Luo Tianyu was controlling the direction, but I just followed him and casually stepped on the ground.

After we left the shore, Luo Tianyu finally stopped and let out a long sigh. He looked around at the lake and the bustling crowd on the shore and said, Su Mo thanks you for accompanying me today.

Luo Tianyu tilted his head and looked at me, I know that you're unwilling to let me have your way. I also know that you're not only hateful to me, but I will do my best to avoid forcing others to do something difficult.

I looked at the expression on Luo Tianyu's face as he spoke. Why do you seem to have suddenly changed?

Luo Tianyu's smile stiffened when he heard what I said, What happened? Is something wrong?

Actually, I don't know how Luo Tianyu felt about this. Perhaps it was because ever since I recognized him, Luo Tianyu gave me a very strong impression. His dark, dangerous, and domineering nature had already been deeply rooted in my heart.

I told Luo Tianyu what I was thinking at the moment: It doesn't seem right anywhere.

Luo Tianyu pursed his lips into a smile, Am I already an unforgivable scoundrel in your eyes?

Yes!

Luo Tianyu took a deep breath and said to me, Su Mo, I admit that everything I did in the beginning was for my sister, and for her sake, I did something that was very hard to forgive. Later on, I wanted to use you for my own ambition, so I was unable to do anything about it. But I really regret it now, and I even cursed myself countless times in my heart. Every time you call me a pervert, it's actually not wrong. I have some psychological problems. When I first brought you back home, it wasn't out of kindness, but because of some ulterior motive.

Luo Tianyu said as he slightly raised his twinkling eyes and looked at me with a hint of unquestionable sincerity in them. But people are all emotional creatures, maybe it's because of a long time of love, maybe it's because you're the only woman in my life besides my mom and sister, and also the woman who stayed the longest. It became a habit for me to face you every day during that time, and when you said you were going to leave, I suddenly became very unaccustomed to it. I don't want to admit that I like you because I don't have the heart to accept a woman who has had relations with another man. Of course, I don't mean to discriminate against you by saying that now.

In response to Luo Tianyu's words, I interrupted him and said, Stop!

Obviously, I hate and hate each other, but this kind of thinking has already become a habit of mine. hate and hate can make us get along under the same roof. Even though we might not be happy, but it's natural.

Su Mo, I mustered a lot of courage to say these words. Please let me finish saying them even if you don't want to. This is because it's not easy for me.

If I were on the shore, I thought I would walk away at once, but I was trapped in the middle of the lake, with nowhere to hide and nowhere to run.

Su Mo, I won't force you to overturn everything in your heart, but I hope that we can have a new beginning. Even if you give me a chance, if you say that no matter what I do in the future, you won't be able to accept my words from the bottom of your heart, then I will be willing to give you back your freedom.

I couldn't help but look at Luo Tianyu seriously. You're really going to let me go?

Yes, if you still have no feelings for me.

There should be a deadline, right?

Luo Tianyu bit his lip as he looked at me. Two years? The longest is not more than two years.

Two years? I couldn't help but take a deep breath. A few days was a long and tormenting time for me. It actually took me two years.

However, I knew in my heart that if I didn't get what Luo Tianyu had, I would never be able to bargain.

Even though I didn't want to, there was no need for me to bargain with Luo Tianyu at this time and place.

Luo Tianyu took out some snacks and handed them to me. Then he opened a bag of potato chips himself and ate a few slices. This is the first time I've eaten this kind of food since I was young. When I was young, my mom never let me eat this kind of food. It's actually quite delicious.

This was the first time Luo Tianyu had brought up his mother. It was as if he didn't even realize that he had said it so naturally.

Do you miss her? I asked tentatively.

Who?

Auntie.

Luo Tianyu gave a bitter smile at my address. I often think, 'Very gentle, very loving, very elegant', 'She can cut flowers, embroider, like to sit in front of a French window and read a book quietly.' She always says the most noble words. 'She is the most noble woman in my memory, unrivaled.'

Luo Tianyu frowned as he said this. The bag of food in his hand slowly turned into a ball. His eyes were transfixed, and as he spoke, the air around us seemed to be affected by his emotions.

I thought that the scene would reappear in Luo Tianyu's mind. I didn't interrupt him, instead, I quietly watched as he forgot everything around him.

Suddenly, Luo Tianyu turned his head and looked at me with a vacant gaze, The last time you were drunk, you said that you saw your mother hanged with your own eyes. You should be able to understand my feelings, right?

Luo Tianyu's words made me think of the scene when I couldn't save my mother even if I wanted to. At that time, my mother was still alive, hanging to death in front of me.

Luo Tianyu turned his head back and looked at the calm surface of the water, My mother is the same. I saw her slowly die.

After all, his mother was different from me when she died. At that time, I was still young, and even without my father to stop me, I didn't have the strength to save my mother.

Luo Tianyu's voice was a little hollow as he said, My mom did something that everyone, including herself, couldn't even raise her head up. She cried all day and no longer had any thoughts of living, she couldn't bear the pressure and chose the path of death. I watched her suffering all day and blamed her for not being able to be my mother in my heart.

Luo Tianyu's hands started to tremble as he said this, and he unconsciously looked at me and asked, Am I considered a murderer? A murderer who refuses to save his own mother?

Even though I already knew about Luo Tianyu's mother, I could understand how Luo Tianyu felt at that time. However, when I saw that his mother had died and yet did not care about it, I truly could not understand or say anything to console him.

I looked at Luo Tianyu who still had an inquiring expression on his face. I thought that this might be the part of the story that Cheng Mengxiu had told me about Luo Tianyu hiding the truth. After all, it was really hard for one to speak while looking at his actions.

I didn't choose to comfort Luo Tianyu. Instead, I said to him, Even though you didn't kill her, no matter what Aunt did wrong, the crime wasn't a capital offense. You were born and raised by her, so you still feel guilty, right? Are you unable to accept what your aunt has done wrong, or do you not dare to face yourself?

Luo Tianyu's eyes flashed before he finally turned his head to the other side. However, the instant he turned his back to me, his palm covered his eyes.

When Luo Tianyu's mood stabilized a bit, I said to him, You haven't seen Auntie for a long time, right? So many years have passed, let's go see her, burn incense for her, and personally apologize!

CHAPTER 207 - HOLIDAY

Tian Yu looked at me with reddened eyes. Can I? Will she forgive me?

Mothers will always forgive their children, won't they?

Tianyu smiled at me and said, Thank you!

Luo Tianyu began to move the boat again, and a breeze blew across his face, carrying with it the chill of the season.

Su Mo, your birthday is coming up in a few days. Let's go somewhere else, shall we?

My heart turned cold. I didn't think that Luo Tianyu would remember my birthday. I originally wanted to find a reason to see if I could escape that day.

Forget it, there's nothing good to do.

However, Luo Tianyu acted as if he hadn't heard my rejection. We're not going too far. I heard that H city is pretty good, we can go back and forth on the same day. We'll stay there for the night and return the next day. What do you think?

I looked at Luo Tianyu, wondering why he would choose to go there.

Remembering the agreement Yi Fei had with me, if Luo Tianyu didn't have a choice, it would be better if he could explain it himself. I nodded at Luo Tianyu, That's good.

Luo Tianyu's smiling eyes twinkled for a moment. I didn't understand what he meant, but somehow, there was a trace of unease in my heart.

Actually, I already don't remember my real birthday, but the one on my ID card is the day that big sister Su took me in. That is my new life, a beautiful beginning of my life.

I never asked Luo Tianyu how he would arrange it, but the morning before that, Luo Tianyu said that we would leave at noon, that we would go to H City in the afternoon, and would rest there for the night. On the day of my birthday, I would play there, and return the day after tomorrow, in the morning.

I didn't object to Luo Tianyu's proposal to stay there for two nights. It was mainly because I knew that Yi Fei would also go.

However, I knew that this arrangement would prevent me from coming back to visit my sister on my birthday the next day. Thus, I told Luo Tianyu that I had to go back to visit my sister and would be back before noon.

Luo Tianyu had a very good attitude these past few days, so he naturally nodded his head. He even told Han Peng to drive slower, so logically speaking, this shouldn't be a bad thing, but it would make people feel weird.

I smoothly left the room, but I felt that it wasn't appropriate for Han Peng to see Sun Gaoqin helping me here. I didn't want this matter to reach Luo Tianyu's ears, so I made Han Peng wait for me downstairs.

However, when I went upstairs to open the door, there wasn't even a shadow of Sun Gaozhen in the room. I couldn't help but to blame him for not helping me block the door. At
