Chapter 340
Later, Yann bid farewell to her, and during the occasional contact between the two, she learned that he was traveling the world to let go of the pain of the marriage.
Not long after, she heard that Li Yu followed Li Lao's wishes and married a wealthy daughter. The relationship between husband and wife was not deep, but they respected each other as guests.
When she sent an e-mail to inform Jahn of the matter, the latter's reply was only two words.
He said: "Fortunately!"
And at that time, after confirming Li Zhen's true identity and the love in his heart, she decided to go to the United States under the pain.
She decided to abandon the past, but she didn't know that the gears of fate never fit together since then.
Later, she, Gu Rugui, Li Yu, or Yan En, the fate of the few people was intricate, and she realized that some things were predestined long ago.
At that time, some people were reborn from Nirvana, some faced death, and some wandered away...
In early autumn, the ends of the willow branches and leaves were dyed yellow, and the branches were blown by the wind on Ah Shu's left cheek, and the itchy feeling brought back her faint thoughts.
She squeezed her fingers together, and inadvertently tore off a few half-yellow willow leaves. The two ends of the willow leaves were pointed, and the ends were curled, as if telling the fatigue of the years.
Ah Shu suddenly thought of herself, at the beginning she was sharp and her posture was fresh, but now after only a few years, she is like a fallen leaf in her hand, curled up at the corners, showing a tired look.
Years have spoiled her mentality, now Ah Shu, there are few things that can touch her.
But just now, Li Zongguang asked her to make a choice.
Shen Nian and Yann.
One is her own daughter, who has been tortured due to illness, and she has been filled with guilt for lacking paternal care since she was a child; and the other is Yan...
Ah Shu tightened her fingers, and the brittle yellow willow leaves were crunched by her, and the leaves turned into fine powder and slipped from her fingertips.
She closed her eyes, already thinking about it.
After brushing the fine leaves off his hands, Ah Shu moved his toes and noticed something different around him.
It turned out that the domestic servants who followed her had dispersed at some point, and the surroundings were silent, with a familiar sense of oppression coming from behind.
No matter whether it was many years ago or many years later, she could always distinguish this breath just like now.
I was slightly surprised, because the "he" standing behind should have driven away from Li's house just now.
What is the meaning of appearing here at this time?
She hesitated for a while, but in the end she didn't turn around, but walked directly towards Xiyuan.
The people behind did not follow up, but Ah Shu stopped first, she froze in place, her tightly pursed lips took a long time to lift.
"Brother Gu." She called softly, closed her eyes and continued, "Niannian's condition is unstable recently, and I'm a little worried. The Li family is not as familiar with her condition as you are. For the sake of it, help take care of her for a few days when I'm not around?"
No one answered behind her, but she knew that he was listening, and after an unknown amount of time, the "rustling" sound of the wind rang out, and the silence behind her was back to the same as before.
Ah Shu turned her head quickly, but what she touched was the impatient eyebrows of the domestic servant, her eyes dimmed, and she turned and pushed open the courtyard gate of Xiyuan.
The white hibiscus came into view, and they swayed, as if welcoming her back.
Ah Shu plucked the petals, and said to himself: "Yan, maybe you were right at the beginning."
Ah Shu had an uneasy sleep in Xiyuan, and the next morning, she asked to see Li Zongguang.
There is a golf course in the backyard of Li's house. When she arrived, Li Zongguang was playing golf with a stick.
I caught a glimpse of her out of the corner of my eye, the former's hands were still moving, and a disapproving smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Have you figured it out?"
Ah Shu lowered his eyes, "I figured it out."
Li Zongguang threw the cue to the caddy beside him, took the towel and wiped his hands, and walked slowly to her, "Where is he?"
The domestic helper approached and took away the dirty towel from Li Zongguang's hand, and handed him a cup of warm tea. He took a sip of the tea, looked at the silent Ah Shu, and said in a displeased tone, "Shen Shu, don't play tricks on me. .”
Ah Shu took a deep breath, looked at him and replied slowly, "I don't know."
After saying that, she felt her eyes go dark, and the teacup in Li Zongguang's hand hit her on the forehead, and the tea poured over her face, and the bright red liquid rolled down from the corner of her forehead and dripped into the green lawn.
Li Zongguang's voice was a little frightening, "You don't have to drink a toast!"
Ah Shu resisted the feeling of dizziness, and straightened his back, "Dad, what's the use even if you found Yann? A Yu can't come back anymore, why do you bother him?"
"You call me dad, I don't remember where I had an extra daughter!" Li Zongguang glanced at her coldly, "If it wasn't for you, why would Ayu come to such a point, murdering her husband, embezzling property, and taking her own life?" As a lawyer, you should know how big a crime this is, right?"
Ah Shu's face suddenly turned extremely pale, she stared at him with wide eyes in disbelief, "You can't reverse black and white, I didn't..."
"The court believes in the evidence, and I have plenty of evidence. Miss Shen, since you choose to speak hard, you should prepare for the worst."
*
Many years ago, Ah Shu was familiar with the Marriage Law and also kept the Criminal Law in mind, but he never thought that one day he would apply it to himself.
Xiang Qi only learned of the news on the third day of her criminal detention and hurried back from City B, tried many methods, but failed to release her on bail.
Ah Shu looked at the dejected Xiang Qi in front of him, and sighed, "Xiang Qi, forget it, don't make yourself ashamed because of me."
"Shen Shu, what nonsense are you talking about, do you still want to be a lawyer?" Xiang Qi suddenly raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot after he hadn't slept for several nights, and he looked haggard.
Ah Shu couldn't bear to look away, she bit her lip, "You know very well that the Li family has conclusive evidence, and the second son of the Li family, Li Jun, has connections and wrists in the political and legal circles, let alone you, this time it's just you." Even Professor Rong may not be able to save me."
Xiang Qi was silent for a long time before asking: "Are you waiting for him to rescue you?"
Now, looking at Qingcheng, if there is someone who can definitely save Shen Shu, then this person must be Gu Rugui. With his relationship with the Li family, even if the Li family cannot withdraw the lawsuit, Shen Shu can still be exonerated. The suffering of criminal detention.
The "he" that Xiang Qi said was naturally also him.
Thinking of that stern face, Ah Shu pursed his lips tightly, but didn't answer.
"The eldest sister went to him a few days ago, do you want to know what he said?" Xiang Qi looked at her and continued: "He said this is a matter between you and the Li family, and he has no right to interfere. When I went to find him, he stopped me with the excuse that the company was busy."
When talking about this, Xiang Qi sneered, his tone half mocking, "But do you know what he's busy with? He's busy going in and out of high-end restaurants with the daughter of the Li family, going to fashion week exhibitions, and some people are even at the racetrack I saw them. Ah Shu, even so, do you still expect him to rescue you?"
Every word he said hit Ah Shu's heart like heavy frost, she told herself that if she didn't care about it, she wouldn't be in pain, but the bloody smell rising from her throat told her that it was just her self-deception.
She forced herself not to think about him, but Xiang Qi's words echoed in her head like a spell, and every time it sounded, the pain in her heart became more intense.
After a few minutes, she felt out of breath.
It took Ah Shu a long time to make her complexion less ugly, but her hoarse voice revealed her feelings, "How is Nian Nian?"
"I went to see her yesterday, and the little guy's indicators are normal, but he didn't see his mother coming, and he was deaf all day with a small face, very unhappy." Xiang Qi paused, and then said: "That Dr. Feng Although you still don’t want to see me, you are really taking care of Nian Nian.”
Ah Shu's nose was sore, she turned her face away to prevent Xiang Qi from seeing the tears in her eyes, "I am the one who is sorry for her."
Seeing her like this, Xiang Qi felt panicked in his heart, he stood up abruptly, "I'll come to see you another day."
After walking a few steps, he looked back at her and promised, "Don't worry, I won't let you stay here for too long!"
After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry, Ah Shu looked at his back and always felt that something was wrong, she subconsciously wanted to stop him, but Xiang Qi had already walked away.
Ah Shu sat back on the chair, she looked at the palms covered with crescent marks, her eyes darkened.
Should he feel lucky, because although Gu Rugui was indifferent to her, at least he protected Nian Nian under Li Zongguang's hands because of their original friendship.
She couldn't help but think of that afternoon in Xiyuan, Li Zhiyu's aggressive eyebrows, and her slender figure when she inadvertently passed the willow tree outside the courtyard. It's just that the smile on the corner of her mouth must have been soft at that time, because she remembered saying, "Because I love him."
Ah Shu's love has traveled through the years and years, but there is only one person.
It's just that that person is the flower in her mirror, which is expected but unattainable.
She twitched the corner of her mouth bitterly, and stayed in the detention room for another seven days. On the afternoon of the seventh day, the door of the detention room was opened again, and the object of entry was Gu Rugui's furious face.
