When the wife is flirting, the master indulges her unbridledly

Xia Qingrou said "ha", with a sarcastic smile hanging on the corner of her lips, and said: "Who said happiness must be maintained with that piece of paper? I can live my life however I want. In my opinion, this Shi family is also It’s not that good. Let’s not say whether they are willing to accept me or not. It’s hard to say whether I am willing to join.”

"You..." Faced with her arrogance, Xia Wanrou was filled with anger and hatred, gritting her teeth and glaring at Xia Qingrou.

"I'll go to the front yard to see the old lady first, and the second young lady can help herself." Xia Qingrou nodded slightly, with an incomprehensible smile on her lips, and walked past Xia Wanrou.

After walking far away, I heard Xia Wanrou's roar: "Go away, I can walk by myself."

The funeral ceremony started at six o'clock. There were so many people gathering in the front yard that Xia Qingrou did not find Shi Fuxun.

Xu Cong said: "Dr. Xia, how about I call the young master?"

"Don't disturb him, let him send the old lady off properly."

As soon as Xia Qingrou finished speaking, a familiar figure walked past several elders in the front yard, and beside him was a young woman...

The woman is in her early twenties, with jet-black hair reaching her waist, skin as fair as snow, and very energetic eyes.

She walked closely next to Shi Fuxun, and when she was about to turn the corner, the woman suddenly put her hand into Shi Fuxun's arm in an intimate manner.

After a while, Shi Fuxun followed a group of people and disappeared around the corner.

Xia Qingrou frowned unconsciously: "Who is that woman?"

Xu Cong immediately raised his hand to touch his nose and said: "The granddaughter of one of the directors of the clan. It was thanks to that gentleman that the eldest young master returned to the family. Doctor Xia, don't worry, the eldest young master has always regarded Miss Xin as his sister."

"Oh." Xia Qingrou and Lin simply responded and went to the other side.

The funeral ceremony went smoothly. Many descendants of the Shi family were present today.

The queue heading to the cemetery was like a long queue, and Shi Fuxun was naturally at the head of the queue.

Xia Qingrou followed him to pay homage as a relative and friend.

That woman was also by Shi Fuxun's side.

Her eyes were red from crying, so Shi Fuxun took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and handed it to her.

Although the two of them were not very close, in Xia Qingrou's opinion, she was the only woman besides her that Shi Fuxun could take a second look at.

To be honest, she felt very uncomfortable.

After the descendants of the Shi family finished offering sacrifices, they lined up on both sides of the cemetery.

Xia Qingrou followed Chu Chen and the others to the cemetery, placed a bouquet of white flowers on the old lady's coffin, and then went to the small forest next to it.

At this time, the cell phone rang, Xia Qingrou answered the phone, and Gu Shuming's voice immediately came over there: "Aqin, I received the message you sent last night. I don't blame you, but I was a little sad yesterday. Today is also the anniversary of our father’s death every year. Every year... I celebrate it by myself, but this year is okay... I have many senior brothers and sisters to celebrate my birthday with me."

Hearing this, Xia Qingrou turned around and lowered her head and said, "But I'm still sorry. Don't worry, when I come back, I will make up for yesterday's birthday for you."

She raised her head and looked at Shi Fuxun again. At this time, she saw Shi Yuxin leaning next to Shi Fuxun. She put an arm on Shi Fuxun's wrist and turned her face to Shi Fuxun's shoulder. He shrugged his shoulders from time to time, as if he was crying against Shi Fuxun.

Seeing this scene, Xia Qingrou frowned subconsciously.

My mood has reached the extreme level of depression.

She quickly looked away, looked at the lake in the distance, and took a few deep breaths.

Gu Shuming didn't know what he said. She didn't respond for a long time, and then there were several calls: "Aqin, Aqin, are you still listening?"

Xia Qingrou suddenly came back to her senses and said: "Brother, I was talking to someone just now. What did you just say? Tell me again."

"Are you with him now?" Gu Shuming's voice was hoarse.

Xia Qingrou nodded and said, "The old lady will be buried today. I will book a flight online to return to country Z later."

"I'll pick you up." Gu Shuming said.

"No, it's too much trouble for you. I can go back by myself."

"But I'm already here, are you sure you don't want me to wait for you?"

Xia Qingrou asked in shock: "Are you here?"

"Well, I wanted to see if there is anything I can help you with, and I'm a little worried about you. I heard that the Shi family is very complicated." Gu Shuming's voice was gentle and low, casting a layer of warmth on Xia Qingrou, who was in a foreign land. meaning.

She originally planned to accompany Shi Fuxun through the old lady's first seven years, but now it seems that she does not have the qualifications and status to stand with him.

"Okay, what time is the ticket?"

"If you can't make it at one o'clock, or if you can't, I'll change the date to suit your time." Gu Shuming's words were a bit cautious.

Xia Qingrou took off her phone and checked the time. It was just after ten o'clock. She attended the funeral as a relative and friend and could leave after paying her respects.

"No need to change your ticket, I will meet you at the airport later."

"When you come down to the foot of the mountain, you can see a black car. I will take you to the airport with me." Gu Shuming's words made Xia Qingrou startled.

She turned her head to look in the direction of Shi Fuxun again. The man and Shi Yuxin were no longer in their original positions.

Her heart felt like it had sunk into an ice cellar, and she was trembling with cold.

Only then did Xia Qingrou realize that her understanding of Shi Fuxun was only about him personally. She didn't know anything about his background, family background, or his past.

How many women like that would exist around him.

Will she have to live a day-to-day and night-to-night life in the future?

This is not the life she longs for. The prosperity and stability she wants should be a house with a family of four living in it.

She breathed a little heavier and replied, "Okay, I'll come down later."

"I'm waiting for you."

Xia Qingrou hung up the phone: "Assistant Xu, Mr. Chu, the old lady has been buried, and it's time for me to return to Country Z."

"Sister-in-law, are you going back?" Chu Chen asked unexpectedly.

He thought Xia Qingrou would stay and accompany Shi Fuxun through the old lady's first seven days.

Xia Qingrou pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "I still have two children who need me. They never leave me for too long. I have to go back. Assistant Xu, always tell your family that I'm leaving first."

"Um... Doctor Xia, why don't you tell the young master personally and he will take you there." Xu Cong looked back at the place where Shi Fuxun was standing just now and found that he was no longer there: "Where is the young master? "

"I don't know, weren't you still standing there just now?" Chu Chen also pointed to the place where Shi Fuxun was standing just now.

Xia Qingrou unconsciously opened the corners of her lips and smiled to herself, but this smile was not detectable.

"I have a friend to pick me up at the foot of the mountain. It's the same thing you always say when you go to meet me. I'll leave first to avoid making people wait too long." Xia Qingrou put away her phone and turned around to leave.
