When he came out of the cemetery, his coat was almost soaked.
Taking a deep breath, Su Qi calmed herself down, as if she was unable to recover from her earlier sadness.
Upon entering, the aunty was stunned as she watched Su Qi walk in.
"Miss?"
The aunt asked in disbelief.
Su Qi's eyes were red and swollen, she forced a smile: "Auntie Li."
After not seeing her for a few years, he remembered that Auntie Li seemed to have aged, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were clearly visible.
"Miss, why did you come back? "Aiyo, look at me. I can't help but be confused. I've gotten taller and I don't even dare to recognize him anymore."
Auntie Li reacted, she immediately went up and took the bag from Su Qi's hands, she could not suppress her excitement.
"Time flies. It's been so long. The last time I saw you, it seemed to be when I was still in university. In the blink of an eye, you have grown so tall and already married. Auntie doesn't even dare to recognize you anymore."
Auntie Li could not help but sigh, lamenting the passing of time.
Su Qi laughed.
In the past, she remembered that Auntie Li liked to chat. Every time, she would talk so much. She didn't expect that after so many years, she would still be the same as before.
"Auntie, you're still the same as before."
"How are they the same? Look at me, I'm already old. I can't even compare to you two." Auntie Li sighed and shook her head, feeling the vicissitudes of life in that instant.
"Why aren't you wearing an umbrella when it's raining?" Auntie Li's voice suddenly became serious.
"I left in a hurry when I came. I didn't expect it to rain here."
Su Qi laughed helplessly.
"The weather at home is not good these few days. It has been raining for several days already. Miss, hurry up and take a hot shower. Don't catch a cold."
Auntie Li put down her bag and took Su Qi's wet jacket.
"Hmm, by the way, where's my mother?"
There was no sign of Shen Tianai in the living room.
"For the past few days, Madam has been busy with the company's matters. She always comes back very late. I'll call her in a while and ask her to come back early."
Auntie Li said excitedly with a kind face.
Su Qi nodded and headed into the bathroom.
When he finished bathing, Shen Tianai had already returned and was waiting for Su Qi to come out.
He didn't expect to return so quickly.
"Mom."
When Su Qi saw Shen Tianai, she immediately walked over and had the urge to cry as she nestled her head into Shen Tianai's shoulder blade.
"Why did you come over without saying anything?"
Shen Tianai spoke with slight dissatisfaction, but her voice was actually spoilt.
He patted Su Qi's head.
"En, I suddenly wanted to come back. I missed you, so I came back." Su Qi resisted the urge to cry and lightly responded.
The moment he saw Shen Tianai, his nose turned sour.
"Are you feeling wronged?"
The corner of Shen Tianai's tired eyes tightened as she spoke unhappily.
Su Qi rubbed her hands together, then shook her head: "No, I was just suddenly thinking about you."
"Silly girl."
Shen Tianai smiled gently, "It's rare for you to come back this time. In the future, inform me in advance before you come here that I'll go pick you up and stop catching a cold."
Looking at his daughter whose hair was drenched, Shen Tianai felt pain in her heart.
"I know, Mom."
Su Qi was moved, and enjoyed Shen Tianai's embrace.
In the past, she would always stick to Shen Tianai like this and wouldn't leave, "I'll go see father."
"You've been there?"
Su Qi nodded, and could not help but feel pain in her nose.
Patting Su Qi's back, Shen Tianai's gaze dimmed, the sharpness in her eyes disappeared.
"Mom, don't get busy working every day. Your body is the most important thing. Look at you, your face looks so bad." Su Qi's heart ached for Shen Tianai, but she felt even more guilty.
He had never paid them back for everything he had done in his entire life. On the contrary, he had always made them worry about him.
"Mom knows, why did you come back alone this time?"
Su Qi's heart suddenly hurt, and she smiled bitterly. "Mom, Xiao Chen has been busy these past few days with cooperating matters. He doesn't have much time, so I came over myself."
"How could he let you come alone? Didn't he say last time that he would come back with you?"
Shen Tianai's tone instantly turned cold and was filled with dissatisfaction.
"Mom …" "He's really busy. He originally said that he would accompany me here, and I didn't ask him to come over. You're really overthinking things."
She looked at Shen Tianai consolingly, pretending as if nothing had happened.
"Then what was the matter with the news last time? "Don't think that I don't know anything in C City. If he treats you badly, you can tell Mom to raise you. Also, pay attention to yourself."
Shen Tianai reminded.
Su Qi naturally knew what Shen Tianai was talking about.
"Mom, don't you know what your own daughter looks like? It was really just an accident, and we're just ordinary friends. "
Shen Tianai heaved a long sigh, and looked at her daughter with a pained look, "Mom knows, but Xiao Qi, you need to know, you are marrying into a Wealthy Class, it is inevitable that there will be all kinds of news. There are many people waiting to watch the show, and they will maliciously ridicule and slander you, so you have to know that to protect yourself, you have to bear the consequences if you marry into a Wealthy Class, Mom is afraid that you will be wronged."
Shen Tianai's words were filled with pain and heartache.
He didn't know what his own daughter would look like if she found out about what they were intentionally hiding.
Su Qi's tears started to moisten once again, becoming more blurry.
"Mom …"
With a sobbing tone, Su Qi hugged Shen Tianai emotionally.
Probably, in this world, only Shen Tianai loved her the most.
"Silly girl."
Shen Tianai laughed lovingly, a look of melancholy flashing past her eyes.
The fine lines on his temples had already been covered by a thin layer of dryness.
"Oh right, when are we going back?"
"I'll go back tomorrow." Su Qi replied.
"So fast?" "Since you're back, you should stay for two more days."
On the sofa, the two of them snuggled together.
"No mom, I've applied for two days leave. I'll be going back home after another day tomorrow." Although he was unwilling, Su Qi only felt guilty in her heart.
Ever since his father had disappeared, the company's performance and status now depended on his mother's support.
"Sigh, he really can't keep a girl by his side. Even after raising her up for so long, she still won't be able to do it in the end."
"Mom …"
Su Qi deliberately dragged out her last words, and the tears that she had gone away with great difficulty rolled back once again.
"Alright, alright, I won't say anymore."
Shen Tianai smiled sadly and hugged her daughter.
"Mom, I'm going to sleep with you tonight." Su Qi said in a spoiled manner, like how she was when she was young.
"Alright."
Shen Tianai said helplessly, "Such a grown-up person already …"
