Chapter 496: I Have the Life I Want to Live
This night seemed particularly peaceful, but only on the surface.
The next morning, when Shi Nuan woke up, Song Yansheng was no longer in bed.
A fleeting sense of loss passed by, and just as she was about to go downstairs, the balcony curtains fluttered in the wind, revealing a silhouette standing there.
With just a brief glance, she knew it was Song Yansheng.
Recalling the momentary tenderness of last night, she still felt something in her heart.
Smoothing her pajamas, she stepped toward the balcony, reaching out to part the curtains, her gaze landing on Song Yansheng.
He stood there with his back to her, still in his robe and slippers, holding a cigarette between his fingers, smoking leisurely.
The white smoke curled around his long, elegant fingers, and she noticed how good his smoking gesture looked.
Shi Nuan paused her fingers at the curtain, not wanting to disturb his moment of peace, she lowered her eyes, intending to leave.
But before she could move, Song Yansheng suddenly spoke, "Nuannuan, is the scenery at the Song Mansion beautiful?"
Shi Nuan’s eyes trembled slightly as she looked at him.
He did not turn around, just stood there, the cigarette in his fingers unpuffed for a moment, the ash-gray dust blown by the wind.
A fragrance from the flowers wafted in, as she looked up, there were clusters of flowers and lush green trees.
This was the Song Mansion, a place carefully crafted by the business magnate Song Yansheng, how could it not be beautiful?
Shi Nuan made a sound of acknowledgment, saying, "It’s beautiful!"
"Do you like it?"
Shi Nuan hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Beautiful things, no one would dislike..."
Song Yansheng chuckled lightly, and said, "Yes, beautiful things, no one would dislike. But there are so many beautiful things in this world, far beyond just this house. If there are many beautiful things, it means you have many things you like. But Nuannuan, what I don’t understand is, with so many things you still like and enjoy, why can’t you let go?"
Shi Nuan’s smoky eyes flickered, and her fingers holding the curtain trembled slightly, she seemed to understand what Song Yansheng meant...
But it also seemed a bit unclear!
"Nuannuan, there are many things in this world, especially what’s in front of you, that are far more important than those lost or losing... You’re young, but you should at least understand this truth, you should know what I mean..."
After Song Yansheng finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Shi Nuan.
The man’s eyes were dark, his face handsome, and the white bathrobe he wore added to his gentle and elegant demeanor, as warm as a picture.
Shi Nuan looked at him for a while, then asked in return, "What about you, Second Uncle? You advise me to let go of some things, but have you already let go of some things, Second Uncle? The idea of cherishing the present, but if everything in front is just illusion and foam, what is the point of desperately cherishing it?"
Song Yansheng frowned slightly, feeling that she had said too much, Shi Nuan slightly turned around, and added, "Second Uncle, no matter what, I was wrong before. But you should also know, Second Uncle, you and my marriage was originally a cooperation, a transaction, discussing anything else in this context is rather unrealistic... I have a life I’ve thought about, and I believe you do too, Second Uncle. No matter how much I owe you, I hope you can respect me, at least in personality..."
"As for the child..." Shi Nuan paused, and said, "I don’t want to have one for now, and I’m not prepared to welcome a new life, I also hope, Second Uncle... you can respect me!"
