his kisses are sweet

Chapter 375

Ah Shu glanced at Sheng Ge, who understood, and took Li Zhiyu's arm, "Yu'er, I'm a little tired, you can sit with me over there for a while."

Li Zhiyu's eyes lingered on her and Li Zhen for a while, and finally looked at the potbellied Shengge, bit his lip and nodded.

Ah Shu looked at the back of the two leaving, and said calmly: "It seems that Xiao Ge still doesn't know your identity, Mr. Qi."

Li Zhen, or it could be said that it was Qi Haofan, also looked at Shengge's back, with a flash of sadness in his eyes, "It won't be of much benefit to let her know."

Ah Shu knew very well that when Rong Jin's condition was uncertain, what happened to Gu Rugui would undoubtedly be a fatal blow to Shengge.

So no matter how much pain she has, she can't show any abnormality in front of her.

Qi Haofan withdrew his gaze and looked at her, "Miss Shen, can I take a step to speak?"

Ah Shu nodded, put down his cup and led him to his lounge.

The banquet hall was noisy and isolated, she finally let go of all her pretense, bit her lip, and looked at Qi Haofan, "How is he...?"

"It's the same, nothing has improved."

Hearing this, Ah Shu immediately felt relieved, no improvement means no deterioration, this is undoubtedly good news for her.

Qi Haofan looked at her meaningfully, then took out a box from his arms and handed it to her, "Shen Shu, this is Rugui's wedding gift for you."

Ah Shu paused, and looked down at the palm-sized jewelry box in his palm.

The box is exquisitely crafted, suggesting that the contents may be of great value.

Gu Rugui's wedding gift...

Ah Shu's nails dug into her palms, perhaps because the lights in the lounge were too bright, which hurt her eyes, she forced herself to look away, "Please tell him, I have received his wishes."

Hearing this, Qi Haofan just put the box gently on the dressing table beside him, "Let me tell you, 12 years ago you said that happiness always passed you by, but today he hopes that you have found happiness."

She trembled all over, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was a bit bitter, "Mr. Qi, please tell him, I will be happy."

"it is good."

Qi Haofan glanced at her thoughtfully, then turned and left the lounge.

Watching the lounge door slowly close, Ah Shu's eyes fell on the jewelry box on the table, and after a pause, his pale fingers moved towards it.

She opened the box only to find that what was lying in the box was not some valuable jewelry, and even the contents inside were far from worth the value of the outer box.

Because lying in the box is a rare specimen of starfish.The starfish is purple all over and has a faint salty smell.

Ah Shu caressed Hai Xing's outline with trembling fingers, and burst into tears instantly.

According to the book, the starfish symbolizes love and happiness.

Twelve years ago, on the coast of Jiangcheng, she missed the starfish she had dreamed of. Gu Ru returned her a conch and told her: The luck that belongs to everyone in this world is different. Sometimes you seem to lose something. But in fact, God has arranged another to make up for it.

Twelve years later, he entrusted someone to give Starfish to her, saying that he hoped that she would have obtained happiness.

And he will probably never know that when she longed to pick up starfish, she just longed to reap happiness with him.

For so many years, the cruel reality has already run counter to the wish.

Her love has been completely rejected by him, so how can there be any happiness?

At this point in her thoughts, the starfish on her fingertips seemed to come alive, mocking her whimsy.

A ball of fire suddenly burned under his palm, which made Ah Shu's palm ache.

She closed her eyes, raised her fingers to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, closed the box and threw it into a pile of sundries, got up and left the lounge.

Gu Rugui, I don't need your blessing, I just want you to live well.

At the banquet, when Li Yu learned that the bride had left the banquet early, Ah Shu was standing on the top floor of the hotel blowing the air.

The tall buildings in Qingcheng stand tall, the neon lights are bright, and the night is overwhelming.

It is a pity that there is not a single star in the gray sky.

Ah Shu's mind wandered so much that she didn't notice when Li Yu appeared behind her. She didn't notice him standing beside her until a pungent smell of alcohol entered her nostrils.

Ah shrugged his coat, turned his head and asked him: "Is the banquet over?"

"No."

"Then how did you come up?"

Li Yu glanced at her, and said lightly: "I feel uncomfortable in my heart, come out to get some air."

"It's not necessarily a good thing for the bride and groom to disappear together before the banquet is over." She joked in a rare good mood.

Li Yu tugged on his tie, "Who cares?"

His voice seemed a little cold, and seemed to be filled with inexplicable anger.

Ah Shu lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, "Are you waiting for Yan?"

Li Yu frowned, and his voice sank a bit, "No."

This "no" was a bit against her will, and she didn't expose it, she just asked her doubts in the past few days, "Li Yu, since you always know where he is, why don't you go directly to him?"

Li Yu was silent for a long while before replying, "I don't know where he is."

Ah Shu was slightly surprised, she woke up from a dream in the middle of the night, and when he sat on the head of her bed, he clearly told him that he knew where Yann was all along, why did he suddenly not know?

However, Li Yu didn't allow her to continue asking, turned around and walked back, "Go back."

Ah Shu withdrew his gaze, "I want to wait a little longer, you should go back first."

Hearing this, he paused, "I'm talking about going home."

This grand wedding ended hastily with the bride and groom leaving early.

Unknown guests passed word of mouth, and by the time it reached Ah Shu's ears, the taste had completely changed.

Li Yu was probably frustrated by the refusal of the Li family to come forward, and her status in the Li family was in name only.

All of a sudden, Ah Shu became the talk of the people in Qingcheng, and the story about her "bad deeds" has been widely known.

Ah Shu turned a deaf ear to it. She was sad that because of her, her parents were implicated. When she went out many times, she asked Wang Shi to detour to the Liyuan Community. Looking at the thin-faced parents in the car, the pain in her heart only increased. No reduction.

But later, I don't know if Professor Shen noticed it, but Ah Shu seldom saw them anymore.

At first, she was still lucky, until she noticed that her parents had given up the habit of taking a walk after dinner for decades, and finally realized their refusal.

So when Wang Shi wanted to take another detour, she stopped him.

At this time, four months had passed, and the child in her belly was already seven months old.

Ah Shu has been living in a muddle for the past few months. Li Yu's illness has occurred several times, but she has covered it up well, except for one time, when she was feeding Li Yu with medicine, Li Zhiyu happened to come to deliver something. They bumped into each other by accident, but fortunately Ah Shu was careful and replaced Li Yu's medicine bottle with a cold medicine bottle, which managed to scare her away.

It's just that because of this, Li Zhiyu's prejudice against her inevitably deepened.

Ah Shu never thought of currying favor with this sister-in-law, so he didn't take it too seriously.

In the past four months, the only thing that comforted her was that Gu Rugui's physical condition was stable.

Feng Zhong said that the new drug therapy has played a very effective role, and his condition has shown a tendency to improve, and he may not need the child in her womb.

For some reason, since she got the news from Feng Zhong yesterday, she has been feeling uneasy.

In the sweltering heat of the early summer afternoon, Ah Shu sat on the wicker chair on the balcony with his knees bent, staring at the starfish that Gu Rugui gave her.

On the day of the wedding, when she returned home from the hotel, she didn't bring out the jewelry box. It was only when Li Yu handed it to her the next day that she suddenly remembered its existence.

For the past four months, it has been lying quietly in Ah Shu's bedside table, but just now she accidentally took it out.

Ah Shu played with the starfish in his hand. It is undeniable that the owner handled the specimen meticulously, not neglecting every corner.

She pulled the corner of her lips and turned it over, but her eyes widened in surprise.

Because this starfish is not purple all over, but one side is purple, the other side is dark red, the red side is too red...

Ah Shu frowned, rubbed his fingers over it, looked at the starfish over and over again for a long time, then suddenly looked away, and then only heard a crisp sound of "click" in the quiet summer afternoon.

And Mrs. Liu, who was cleaning the house on the first floor, only caught a glimpse of the hostess, who was more than seven months pregnant, rushing towards the door like crazy...
