Chapter 97
Fast food, a hamburger with fries and a Coke. Listening to upbeat music in a somewhat noisy environment, Bai Min's complexion had improved a lot, I don't know if it was really the amulet that worked, anyway, for several days she no longer had hallucinations. Since that night when she sang, she put the amulet on her body, whether day or night, nothing disturbed her, no ancient people, no strange sounds, life returned to normal, just like waking up from a nightmare, sunny and bright.
Duan Zhishan is a pretty good boyfriend, especially to her, so today when they met up, Bai Min mentioned his parents. His parents are coming back soon, his sister has a week's vacation time and is going on holiday with her husband and kids, and his parents will also be returning from abroad to see their youngest daughter.
"My parents are coming back the day after tomorrow, so I'll have to ask for a leave the day after tomorrow to accompany my parents." Bai Min smiled warmly, stirring the ice cubes in her Coke, and the air was filled with the aroma of salad. The so-called junk food also brought joy to some people's ordinary lives.
"Alright, I'd also like to meet your parents." Duan Zhishan reached across the table to hold Bai Min's hand, "I hope I can bring you into my family as soon as possible."
Bai Min gently withdrew her hand, smiling and saying: "What's so good about me that you're in such a hurry to take me home? You make me feel uneasy, like a pie fell from the sky and hit my head."
"I think I've gotten a great bargain." Duan Zhishan said with a smile.
Bai Min's mind was a bit dazed, Duan Zhishan was a pretty good candidate, but why, when facing him, there was always a faint pain in his heart, but it wasn't for him?
When the parents returned, Duan Zhishan personally drove to the airport to pick them up. Bai Min was truly grateful for his formal arrival. The parents had always been very worried about her marriage and had seen many people, but they never felt that anyone was suitable. If they saw Duan Zhishan, they should be satisfied.
Duan Zhishan and Bai Min's parents were almost like old friends, to the point where they left Bai Min alone, and the dinner party was also lively with laughter. Bai Min's parents were truly satisfied with this man.
But only Bai Min, with a dull ache in his heart, didn't know what it was for. At night, he couldn't bear it anymore, secretly hid the amulet ten meters away from himself, then lay on the bed, waiting to fall asleep, with wide eyes in the dark of night, feeling anxious and uneasy.
Yes, it's here. She has been to this place many times before, but it seems like a lot of days have passed since then. The last time she came was when the osmanthus flowers were in bloom, but now they are all fallen leaves on the ground. In the entire courtyard, there is only fallen leaves everywhere. It's probably early morning, and the servants are sweeping the floor. The woman named Yan Yu that I saw last time is comforting another woman of similar age to her. That woman has a tear-stained face, hanging her head low, crying while sweeping the fallen leaves, with a heart full of sorrow and unwillingness.
Bai Min felt strange, what happened? Or did Sima Rui have some new situation? Could it be that she was thinking too much and couldn't open up?! Looking at the appearance, the servants didn't seem to have any big changes, it shouldn't be.
She stood beside them like air, listening to their conversation.
“... Spring Willow, don't cry, it's definitely not the Fourth Prince's fault. It must be that woman's doing something strange. For two months now, the Fourth Prince has never paid attention to her. She clings to him and refuses to leave. When sent back, she runs back again. She must have taken advantage of the Fourth Prince when he was drunk.” Smoke Jade said this with anger hidden in her eyes.
"Miss has been missing until now, and the fourth prince actually allowed another woman to get on his bed, which is also Miss's bed. Chunliu really wants to kill that woman alive... " As she spoke, tears flowed out again, "Even if Miss is really gone, that bed, that house will be smashed, but it can't let another woman touch it. I really hate it to death!"
Yan Yu didn't make a sound, it was also her own negligence that allowed that woman to take advantage of the situation and actually get into the bed of the Fourth Young Master.
A woman walked out of the house, and Bai Min looked over to see that it was Meng Wanlu, who had been sent by Lord Wei on his previous visit. Her face was flushed with a mixture of shyness and barely concealed delight and happiness. After being carefully dressed up, she looked gentle and beautiful, soft and lovely.
Spring Willow slammed down the broom in her hand and turned around to leave, not even caring if the other person might become her new master.
"Spring willow, come in and collect it." It wasn't Sima Rui's voice, but rather the voice of his sturdy servant, which didn't sound particularly pleasant.
Spring Willow reluctantly hummed a sound and slowly walked in.
Bai Min quietly followed him in, feeling as if she was on the set of a TV drama. Only she could see others, but they couldn't see her. Her heart felt twisted and indignant, unable to express the anger that made her want to slap Sima Rui. Why? She really didn't know, all she knew was that she was furious!
She began to regret bringing that thing with her these past few days, and yet she hadn't come for several days, but Sima Rui had already forgotten about Murong Feng? Fortunately, she still believed he was a devoted person, even feeling moved to the point of having hallucinations in broad daylight, hearing his deep voice calling out 'Feng'er'.
This Sima Rui is simply detestable!
Is time passing so quickly? It's already been two months, but to her it feels like just a few short days.
Simarui still looked the same, haggard and sorrowful, lying on the soft couch, a pair of peach blossom eyes, languid and sensual, Bai Min thought, it was infuriating yet endearing, this Simarui was indeed a handsome man who could move people's hearts, handsome, evil, and passionate...
If he were living in his own time, this man would absolutely be a guy that everyone loves, and even I might have had some feelings for him, although falling in love is impossible, secretly liking him is possible.
The expression on Chun Liu's face was one of sorrow, her head hung low as she reluctantly gathered up the bedding, tears falling silently to the ground, leaving faint wet marks. Her movements were clumsy and rough, lacking any gentleness, as if she was venting all her pent-up anger into the act of cleaning.
"Chunliu, what's wrong with you?" Wang Bao looked at Sima Rui with some concern and scolded in a low voice. He knew that Chunliu was uncomfortable in her heart, but she couldn't just vent her anger on the master's face, could she? Didn't that mean she wanted to die?
"What can I do?" Chun Liu sobbed, "I'm just heartbroken, this house was originally where the young lady lived, but this morning another woman came out, I miss the young lady so much, that's why I'm like this."
