Chapter 1033 - 80: Brilliant Sparks, Only Deep Affection Must Not Be Betrayed
Waiting for the meal, and after it’s finished, he takes the initiative to clean the dishes.Helping to tidy up the household rubbish, watering the flowers and trees, after completing a round, he glances at the time which is about 8:35 PM, then smiles and turns to leave.
Day six, day seven.
Feng Chengxuan almost never does anything excessive to Chen Yiyue, he just wholeheartedly stays by her side. If he has more leisure time, he either goes to the research institute or the hospital to see his son, and more than that, he goes to the Feng Family to discuss divorce.
Chen Yiyue cannot help but be moved, as if she has crossed over that gradually passing time, the bits and pieces spent together now seem to have returned to twenty or thirty years ago, back then, she would curl up lightly in his arms and say, "Chengxuan..."
He would also lean forward, taking advantage of the moment when no one noticed, to kiss her lips, tenderly and deeply, yet without desecration.
...
By the tenth day, Feng Chengxuan seems to also realize that he runs to Chen Yiyue’s neighborhood every day, the car he drives, the clothes he wears, all seen by security guards and others who start to look at Chen Yiyue and whisper behind her back.
Even when facing the improving relationship between him and Chen Yiyue, sometimes he thinks, why not just make her his tonight?
Since they’re going to divorce anyway, he will be resolute this time, not missing these couple of days, and in fact, he and Li Zhi have been completely separated for three years. As long as some investigation falls into place, he can divorce Li Zhi.
If he has to bear the infamy of infidelity, he alone will bear it, and will not let her endure any of it.
But when faced with those additional glances, and recalling what Su Xin has endured, he ultimately feels a pang of reluctance deep down.
After dinner one evening, he routinely grabs the garbage ready to go downstairs.
Standing at the door, he hesitates for a while, then says: "I won’t be coming to your place these days, I... will come again later."
Su Xin also realizes the people in the neighborhood have started observing her, and towards such an absurd outcome, she only feels ridicule and disdain deep down.
She should have been the legitimate girlfriend, yet she ends up like this...
But then, looking at Feng Chengxuan now...
His dark eyes harbor a unique warmth in the air.
She says nothing.
Thinking she’s agreed silently, he smiles deeply, pauses, and turns to leave.
Su Xin feels a stab of pain in her heart, remaining silent, watching his departing figure.
...
Days simply pass by like this.
Even Feng Jingguo and Ye Xilan couldn’t resist visiting her at the Heart Benefit Charity Foundation.
Feng Chengjin suddenly came with his secretary to spend an afternoon at his charity foundation’s clubhouse.
There’s also the second sister of the Feng Family, Feng Chengjie, and her second brother-in-law Lven.
Lastly, even Feng Yuning couldn’t be stopped from running to her office, pulled partially by President Yu, her head tilted as she stared at her with grape-like big eyes for a long time.
Su Xin always maintains a cool attitude towards everyone.
Anyway, if the Feng Family wants to come, she accompanies them like that, if the Feng Family wants to go, she absolutely won’t try to keep them.
She behaves with dignity and poise towards everyone.
At this age, it’s evident Feng Chengxuan has caused such a stir that the whole Feng Family is in an uproar, and the situation seems to be getting explosive, but what does she have to be excited about?
It was the Feng Family that once closed its doors tightly to her, and after ten years of dating, it was the Feng Family that never nodded in approval.
She couldn’t get married during the most beautiful years of her life.
Now, even if Mrs. Feng’s position was meant to be hers, at this age, even if she were really to marry Feng Chengxuan, it would be impossible to give birth to his children; some love between them is destined to never be complete, whether it happens or not, what is there to care about?
Su Xin thinks very calmly about all these things.
But it doesn’t seem like Feng Chengxuan can easily let go.
His desire to win back his original wife is unwavering.
As time progresses, and seeing Su Xin’s lukewarm attitude, he understands more about what compensation he needs to make.
Eighteenth day.
With April drawing to a close, and the warming weather, Feng Chengxuan occasionally finds himself unable to resist his desire when faced with her thin dress while alone, every time...
Su Xin never thought Feng Chengxuan would reach such a state one day.
Has he not done it in all these years? Or is he still lingering in memories of the only time between them?
At night, Feng Chengxuan drives, chatting with her all the way, taking the overtime-working her back to her neighborhood.
She has her own car, doesn’t need him to pick her up.
Yet he seems determined to do so.
Arriving at her favorite brand’s coffee shop, he slows down and asks her.
"Would you like to go in for a drink?"
Su Xin lifts her eyes and glances at Feng Chengxuan, nodding.
But when Feng Chengxuan stops the car, she says, "I’ll go in and buy it to take away, you just wait here in the car."
Thinking how he’s not yet divorced, meeting her frequently is already rare, and exiting more together in public might make others mistakenly assume she is...
Paparazzi often capture high-profile marriages as subjects of rumor in entertainment columns.
He thinks there’s plenty of time after the divorce, so he holds back, sitting in the car with a nod and smile: "Okay, I’ll wait for you."
It has been twenty days, they almost express feelings yet stop at rituals, apart from the first day’s uncontrollable hug upon meeting, these days, besides chatting and having meals face to face, they’ve never touched each other’s hands.
This feeling, without considering the old emotions, others might even think they’re simply ordinary friends, right?
Su Xin feels very complicated inside, gripping her purse to turn and enter the café.
But when she buys the coffee and returns to the car about twenty minutes later.
At this moment, Feng Chengxuan has fallen asleep leaning against the driver’s seat while waiting for her.
The interior light spills onto his temples, revealing his hair mixed with silver strands, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and his old face no longer youthful.
Feng Chengxuan is very handsome, his well-maintained appearance seems like he’s in his forties, but undeniably he is indeed fifty-four; their love marathon counts the initial ten years, and altogether it’s been thirty-six years.
The fingers holding the coffee cup tremble slightly.
Su Xin doesn’t disturb Feng Chengxuan’s sleep, knowing he must be exhausted these days, not to mention observing him at the hospital, he looked worn down facing his son’s accident, as if aged several years overnight, plus, now intending to divorce Li Zhi, trying all he can to see her.
Su Xin can’t articulate whether she has forgiven him at this moment.
But just watching Feng Chengxuan tiredly fall asleep briefly during the wait, she pauses, sets down the coffee cup, leans close, and kisses his cheek...
