Chapter 57 Cemetery
Chapter 57 Cemetery
Did she cry a lot?
Li Zeyi's heart ached, he stepped on the accelerator impatiently, and his hands holding the steering wheel tightened a little.
Why didn't he know it earlier?
If he had known this earlier, he could have been with her earlier and wouldn't have made her so sad.
Li Zeyi suddenly felt a little regretful. In fact, he could have investigated her.
He could find out everything about her background, experiences, hobbies, relatives' birthdays, relatives' death anniversaries, etc.
But he disdains to apply those business methods to love. He prefers to take the time to get to know her little by little.
Instead of letting others present the investigation results directly to him.
When Li Zeyi saw Su Jinyan, she was squatting beside the flower bed outside the Yueting South House villa area.
She squatted there, a small ball, with her long black hair spread out on her back, making her look even more fragile, which made people feel pity for her.
Li Zeyi walked up to her and a pair of shiny black leather shoes appeared in front of her.
She looked up along the line of leather shoes and saw Li Zeyi's face full of dark clouds.
Li Zeyi looked at her. Her eyes were red, her face was covered with tear marks, and she looked exhausted and listless.
How long did this woman cry to make herself so embarrassed?
Doesn’t she know that it would hurt him to see her unhappy?
"Li Zeyi, why are you here?" Her voice was hoarse.
"On the way."
"How long are you going to squat here? Can't you get up?" Li Zeyi was in an irritable mood and his voice sounded a bit aggressive.
"Li Zeyi, I'm not happy today, why are you so fierce?"
Su Jinyan had been crying for so long that she finally calmed down a little. But when she heard his stern voice, she felt a little aggrieved again.
She felt that her tears today were like a flood that had broken through a dam, and the slightest bit of grievance could cause her to burst the dam.
Su Jinyan's voice had a hint of tears in it, and her red eyes looked at Li Zeyi with grievance. Li Zeyi felt that his heart was as soft as a body of water.
How could he bear to be mean to her? He just felt sorry for her.
"I'm sorry, I won't speak so harshly anymore, please get up..." Li Zeyi spoke softly and apologetically, like a child who had made a mistake.
Seeing him like this, Su Jinyan also felt that she had said something a bit too much.
"Li Zeyi, my feet are numb."
It’s not that she didn’t want to get up, but after squatting for nearly an hour, she couldn’t get up.
She reached out her hand to Li Zeyi. The next second, Li Zeyi squatted down and held him in his arms like a princess.
Su Jinyan stretched out her hand just to ask him for support, but now that she was being held by him, Su Jinyan did not resist and stayed obediently in his arms.
She was tired of crying and her heart was tired.
His embrace was warm and firm. At this moment, Su Jinyan felt safe and comfortable. Her heart seemed to be infused with warmth and strength, not as fragile and powerless as before. She actually became a little greedy for this embrace.
The last time he hugged her, she was full of resistance. This time when he hugged her, she was so obedient.
At this moment, she stayed in his arms obediently, her body was fragrant and soft, and her long, straight black hair hung down from his arms.
As he walked, the soft hair brushed against his strong arms, bringing a tingling sensation.
The hair on Li Zeyi's arms stood up because of the teasing.
This was the first time he saw her let her hair down in public, and this look made her look even more tender than usual.
Li Zeyi always felt that Su Jinyan did not fully reveal her beauty on weekdays.
She was not like other girls who dressed up flashily; instead, she dressed modestly.
She always wears long pants or long skirts, rarely exposing her body skin, and her hairstyle is also simple.
Unlike other girls who like to show off their beauty, Su Jinyan seems to be hiding it.
Even without makeup and dressed conservatively and casually, she is already as beautiful as a school belle.
I dare not imagine what a girl like this would look like if she dressed up a little.
The car was close, so Li Zeyi didn't hold her for long. He put her on the passenger seat.
"Where are you going?" Li Zeyi asked softly.
"I'm going to the Jiading Cemetery in the southern suburbs. I'll be there for a long time. You go back first. I'll take a taxi there."
Su Jinyan reached out to unfasten her seat belt.
"No, I'm on my way."
Before she could say anything else, the car started.
Su Jinyan was in a low mood along the way. She stared out the window without saying a word.
The sweet daily life of this family of three keeps appearing in my mind.
My mother was such a beautiful woman, why did she die so early? Was it because God was jealous of her beauty?
And why did the father, the man who once treated her as the apple of his eye, ignore her after the mother and daughter came?
Passing by a flower shop, Su Jinyan got out of the car and picked out a bunch of gardenias. The white flowers had a fresh and elegant fragrance.
Just like my mother, that dignified, beautiful and all beautiful woman.
The scent of gardenia lingered throughout the car. Su Jinyan put her nose close to it and sniffed it, with a tiny light flickering in her eyes.
Jiading Cemetery is located halfway up the mountain, with a quiet and peaceful environment. Li Zeyi parked his car at the parking lot at the foot of the mountain.
"I'm here, you can go back."
"I'll accompany you." Li Zeyi said firmly.
Su Jinyan looked at him and did not refuse. At this moment, his words gave her a sense of security.
Li Zeyi followed Su Jinyan up the winding stairs. The stairs were not high and they soon reached their destination.
"If you have something to do later, don't inform me, just go down the mountain by yourself, I will stay here for a while."
After Su Jinyan finished speaking, she walked towards the tombstone in front of her holding the flowers.
The photo on the tombstone is of a young face with her hair tied up and a faint smile on her face.
Even though only her shoulders were photographed, her nobility and elegance could still be seen.
She put the flowers down and sat in front of her mother's grave, her face leaning against the tombstone.
The pain in her heart spread, and a sour feeling filled her facial features.
Her throat was tight, her eyes were wet, she clenched her teeth, and her cheeks were tense.
The heavy pressure of pain in her heart made her heart ache suddenly, and her heart, liver, spleen and lungs seemed to be aching in an instant.
She gasped for air in pain.
Tears as big as beans rolled out of the eye sockets, fell on the dry steps, and spread into wet spots.
The moisture in his eyes turned into suppressed sobs.
She covered her mouth and nose with her hands, closed her eyes, and took a long time to swallow the pain in her heart.
Su Jinyan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and a faint, warm smile appeared at the corners of her lips.
"Mom, I don't want to cry in front of your grave. Really, I'm doing fine. I just miss you so much..."
"Mom, don't worry about me. I have bodyguards to protect me. No boys will follow me home. I am safe..."
"Mom, I didn't learn to play the piano or dance after you left. I don't like it. I'm sorry that I don't have the temperament of a celebrity like you..."
"Mom, the little Western-style house you bought is getting prettier and prettier, and my princess room is getting prettier and prettier..."
"Mom, I studied medicine. If I had studied medicine earlier, you wouldn't have died..."
Su Jinyan murmured in front of the tomb.
