Zhu Jiangci pursed her lips, and did not make a sound.

He did not console Su Qiao An, nor did he say anything.

What Su Qiao An said was the truth, he had never given Su Qiao An a chance to explain.

He always thought that Su Qiao An was an unyielding woman, not afraid of pain or tears or blood.

Now, he knew that he was wrong. Su Qiao An was not as tenacious as he thought.

She would cry and bleed and be tired.

Perhaps it was because he had seen her being indifferent too many times, seeing her being able to crawl back up no matter how hard she was being attacked and tortured by reality. Only when he saw the weakness that Su Qiao An revealed, would he feel that it was so shocking and unbelievable.

He finally understood that when he saw Su Qiao An's tears, the faint sour feeling in his heart caused his heart to ache.

On the day of Su Rong's death, Lin Yan came to the hospital early in the morning to pick them up.

Zhu Jiangci's injuries had not completely healed yet. Originally, the doctors did not allow him to leave the hospital for good.

Su Qiao An watched as Lin Yan helped her sit in the carriage before she sat in the carriage.

On the day of the anniversary, it was as if she had lost her soul.

He just sat there in a daze, his heart drifting to who knows where.

She looked out the window at the quickly reflecting view, her eyes blank and lifeless.

Su Qiao An felt that he should have been glad that Su Rong had come to find him after his death. Otherwise, as a female university student, she wouldn't have been able to afford the funeral expenses.

Chu Shixiong had arranged this funeral by himself, and he chose the best grave to bury Su Rong.

Su Yun lowered his eyes and retracted the trace of dejection in them.

Every time it came to that day, everything that happened before Su Rong's death would automatically be played in her mind.

It was the first time in her life that she disobeyed Su Rong and had a huge argument with him. Afterwards, she rebelled and escaped, and in the end …

"Stop daydreaming, we're almost there." Zhu Jiangci caressed the top of her head with a pampered hand, attempting to pull her out from the abyss.

Su Qiao An nodded her head. Her reaction was extremely light, although she did not say anything, she did not avoid his touch.

The wounds on Zhu Jiangci's body had not healed at all, so it would definitely be a loss if he went up.

Su Qiao An made him wait inside the carriage. He refused, and insisted on going with her.

Zhu Jiangci said, "After marrying her most beloved daughter for so many years, I have never come here to pay my respects. This time, I cannot hide in the carriage and not see her even once."

Since he had already said that, Su Qiao An would let him go.

Zhu Jiangci endured the discomfort in his body and slowly followed behind Su Qiao An.

After they found the location of the tombstone, Su Qiao An finally noticed that there was a bunch of flowers in front of the tombstone.

Someone has been here?

However, there were very few people who would come to pay their respects to Su Rong, so other than them, who else would come?

Su Qiao An felt that it was strange, but she did not think too much about it. She placed down the flowers she brought, and calmly looked at the black and white photo that was embedded on the tombstone.

"You and your mother look alike." Zhu Jiangci said.

Su Qiao An and Su Rong truly looked very similar, especially those eyes. However, Su Rong's expression seemed to be a little gentler.

"They all said that. I feel that I'm very much like my mother, not like Jiang Fuwen." "Actually, when I was young, I was rather envious of others who had fathers and mothers. I had fantasized about what my father looked like before, and I had seen him when I was young, but as I grew older, I forgot how he looked like."

My mom and I changed addresses several times, and in the end, because of my persistence, she chose to live here. My mom isn't as miserable as you say, maybe you look down on her, but in my heart, she is the person who loves me the most in this world, and she goes to work early every day to support me. If it wasn't for the injury to her leg, she wouldn't have agreed to be someone else's mistress.

Su Qiao An's eyes were warm, but she held back her tears.

Su Rong had sacrificed so much for her, and she hadn't even had the time to let Su Rong enjoy his life before he was killed by her.

His knuckles moved slightly as he hesitantly pulled the person beside him into his arms, "It's not your fault, it's not your fault. Don't blame yourself for your own fault."

Su Qiao An pressed her forehead against his chest. At this moment, she did not want to push Zhu Jiangci away.

In this one second, or at least one second, it would be enough to let her lean on him.

"Zhu Jiangci."

"Hmm?"

"If I could, I wish I hadn't met you." In this way, her life would not become chaotic, and Zhu Jiangci's life would also go according to the trajectory he had set.

Zhu Jiangci's body froze, the hand on her back silently tensed up, "What a coincidence, I am the exact opposite of you."

If he could, he still hoped to meet Su Qiao An, but he would not hurt her again.

As he embraced Su Qiao An, he glanced at the woman in the photo on the tombstone and muttered to himself, "I'm sorry, it took me so long to be willing to come and visit you. I'm sorry, I was the one who hurt your most precious daughter so deeply."

Su Qiao An took a deep breath and withdrew from Zhu Jiangci's embrace, pretending to accidentally wipe the tears in the corner of his eyes.

"Young Mistress?" A voice filled with surprise came from behind them.

Su Qiao An turned his head and was still stunned when he saw Song Cheng.

Song Cheng could not believe that the living woman standing in front of him was Su Qiao An, "Young Mistress, when did you come back? Where have you been these two years? "Master has always been talking about you, but unfortunately …"

Unfortunately, even in death, he had not seen Su Qiao An once.

"I have been back for a while, Xu Shu, why are you here?" Su Qiao An changed the topic.

"Young Mistress, you're not in Cenchuan, I think no one will come and sweep your mother's grave, so every year when we're clear and there's your mother's day of destruction, the Old Master would instruct me to come. Now that the Old Master has passed away, I'm the only one left, while I'm still able to walk around, I want to help you do my best to be filial."

"Thank you, Xu Shu." She had been gone for two years and never returned. She was very unfilial.

"We're all family, why are you being so courteous?" Song Cheng put down the flowers and fruit basket, "Young Mistress, you won't be leaving this time, right? The old master has been thinking highly of you these past two years. Actually, when you came to bid him farewell, the old master said that he would like to have a good meal with you when you return. "

"Xu Shu, I …"

"It's fine, I know it. Old master understands it as well." Song Cheng comforted her, "Old master knows your difficulties, you can't be blamed."

No matter what, Chu Shixiong had treated her very well, it had always been a pity that she hadn't seen Chu Shixiong's final moments.

Song Cheng looked at Su Qiao An, then looked at Zhu Jiangci and smiled, "Actually! As long as Young Mistress and Young Master can live together well, the old master will rest in peace even if he dies. "

Su Qiao An was just about to explain when Zhu Jiangci held her hand and said, "I will, I will take good care of her in the future."

Song Cheng was very pleased, "That's right, Young Master, you must treat Young Mistress well. Young Mistress is a good woman, she is worthy of you treating her with your heart and soul."

Zhu Jiangci nodded lightly as he tightened his grip on her hand.

When they came out of the cemetery, Song Cheng said, "Young Mistress, if you have no urgent matters to attend to later, come with me. Master has something he needs me to pass to you."

Su Qiao An's reaction was slower by half a beat, and it was Zhu Jiangci who helped her answer the call.

Lin Yan drove, Song Cheng sat in the front passenger seat, she and Zhu Jiangci sat in the back.

"Xu Shu, have you already sent Chu Family out?" She went to the Chu residence two or three times, but didn't see Song Cheng at all.

Song Cheng smiled amiably, "The old master has passed away, I have no reason to stay anymore. Young master has done very well, being able to take charge of a side, I am also old, and want to be more quiet."

Su Qiao An nodded and did not say a word.

Song Cheng looked at her through the front view mirror and asked with a smile, "But Young Mistress, don't worry. If there's anything you need this old man's help with in the future, I will definitely take responsibility."
