Shancai Rebirth: My Choice
Chapter 243 She is not me
He went up to her and hugged her tightly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, dear, I'm coming."
When she heard the familiar voice, Shanlai's tears fell like a faucet that could not be stopped, "Don't abandon me, wuwu,... I am Deng He Shanlai, she is just a fake, I am not her, she is not me, wuwuwu..."
Seeing Shanlai like this, Lei felt so distressed that he almost suffocated. It seemed that the person who had the same surgery as her had brought her a sense of crisis. They hadn't seen Qiu Yingxue since she was taken away by Nadel that day. They didn't know where she went.
Shanlai hugged Lei tightly and refused to let go. She was still crying. No, she had to eliminate all the people who were a threat to her. No one could take away her things.
Knowing that she had lost her composure just now, she wiped the tears from her face and said, "I'm fine. I just suddenly thought of some things in the past, so I was a little upset."
Although he didn't quite believe her story, seeing that she was not in a good condition, Lei didn't ask her any more questions.
He carried her to the bed, wet a towel with warm water and wiped her face and hands. "Originally, your aunt Cheng asked me to take you home for dinner today, but you're not in a good mood right now, so let's not go."
Shan Lai was stunned for a moment when he heard the words "Aunt Cheng". "Aunt Cheng, do you want me to come to your house for dinner?"
"Yes, she cooked for us today. Let's go another day." Lei took out his phone and wanted to tell his mother about Shanlai's situation. Unexpectedly, Shanlai took his hand and whispered, "Since Aunt Cheng cooked for us personally, let's go over now. Don't let her down."
Lei frowned. This was not a particularly important matter. He could sense that she was in a bad mood. "Shanlai, let's not go today. Let's go another day. Your Aunt Cheng won't mind."
Shan Lai shook her head. "Let's do it today. I'm free." Since it was Aunt Cheng who cooked personally, she didn't want to waste her entire afternoon.
Lei said a lot of things to her, but she shook her head and insisted on going over. "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. I just lost control of my emotions a little bit, it's okay."
Unable to persuade her, Lei had to go downstairs to get an ice pack to apply to her eyes. Only when they looked less swollen did he carry her downstairs.
When they arrived home, the Huaze couple were already sitting at the dining table waiting for them. Seeing Lei helping Shanlai into the living room, Cheng Nanyi stood up from her chair and took her hand, "My dear, Aunt Cheng has finally had you here after waiting so long." She took Shanlai's hand and walked away, completely forgetting that she had a son next to her.
"Mom." Seeing Shanlai being dragged away, Lei shouted helplessly.
Chengnan seemed to have just remembered that he had a son. He was stunned for two seconds before turning around and said, "Oh, come along too." His tone was as indifferent as it could be, not at all as enthusiastic as when he pulled Shanlai just now.
Hua Ze Heng also stood up to help support Shan Lai.
The three of them seemed to be having so much fun that it seemed as if Lei, who was standing not far away, was the outsider. He had to admit that he felt a little unbalanced at that moment.
But at the same time as this slight imbalance, he also felt ecstasy. It seemed that his parents liked her very much. At this moment, he was very glad that his parents were not such conservative people.
After Lei sat down, the Huaze couple kept putting food into Shanlai's bowl, and no one cared about him at all.
After the meal, Lei didn't even get a word in. He could only lower his head and eat obediently.
After eating dessert, Chengnan looked at his good son intentionally or unintentionally, "Lei, Shanlai should sleep with you tonight. It's not convenient for her to sleep alone without seeing."
Shanlai blushed. Is this okay to say?
Lei didn't mind at all, "Okay, I'll take care of her."
"I have converted your original room into a guest room. I helped you choose another one, which is still decorated according to the appearance of your original room. It has not changed at all."
"Everything inside is new, so you can rest assured."
Knowing the bad memories that the room brought to both of them, Cheng Nanyi also understood the pain that the incident brought to each of them, so after the incident and Lei went to Country M, she threw out all the things in Lei's room, and then helped him change to another one and arranged it to look like his original room.
Cheng Nan said a few more words and then pulled her husband upstairs, leaving the space for the two young lovers.
Lei felt grateful to his mother.
When Shan Lai heard Cheng Nanyi say this, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not what she thought. To be honest, she still felt alienated by the scene she had seen.
Seeing that his parents had gone upstairs, Lei held Shanlai's hand and said, "Let me take care of you tonight. I promise I won't do anything to you." He said seriously.
Shan Lai misunderstood his meaning, "You mean you want to do something else to me?" She was numb, it seemed that she had never been like this before, "Why don't you just send me back."
Seeing that she had misunderstood, Lei did not explain and put his lips close to her ear, "Well, I want to do something with you."
Shan Lai's face flushed, and she reached out to push him away, "Stop it."
Knowing that she was shy and that there were servants constantly coming in and out, he stopped teasing her and picked her up and walked upstairs.
Turning on the light and putting her on the sofa, he couldn't help but pinch her flushed cheeks, "You are too thin, you should eat more. I see you didn't eat much tonight."
She slapped his hand away and said, "No way, Aunt Cheng and Uncle Hua Ze have been serving me food, and I eat a lot."
Although her parents kept picking food for her, she only ate two small bites and drank two sips of chicken soup and then stopped eating.
He just secretly memorized the dishes she liked, thinking about finding a chef to learn from him after a while and feeding her to make her fatter, as being too thin was not good for her health.
"Okay, take a bath first. After that, I'll read you a new book." Lei rubbed her little head, got up and went to the bathroom to help her run the bath water, and then brought her pajamas in.
Shanlai was taking a shower inside, while Lei was outside opening his computer and checking emails. The gentle look on his face that he had just shown to Shanlai was completely gone, and only coldness remained.
When he saw the last column for visitors, his eyelids lifted slightly, and the name written in that column was Huo Ting.
It is quite interesting that the last person to see Huo Cheng before her death was her illegitimate brother Huo Ting, whom she always looked down upon.
Although he had been in Country M for more than a year, he had learned some things about Huo Ting from Ximen and Asi. An illegitimate child was an illegitimate child, but his methods were enough to make people feel sick.
One sentence is: Why do you think you can be superior just because you have a good background, but another sentence is: Why do you think that if someone stands in your position, you will have the opportunity to snatch away the superiority that already belongs to him.
Huo Ting belongs to the latter.
