Rose Manor

Chapter 257

Shen Jia Nian was sweating profusely while walking in the airport hall with her cello on her back, but could not find Pei Che. She thought he would take a flight back to Jiangcheng after leaving Yunding Palace.

He said that he would not leave the country so soon.

Shen Jianian called him. Just after it rang twice, the phone automatically shut down due to low battery.

Her mobile phone had not been used for more than [-] days and the battery was running low.

Shen Jia Nian rummaged through her bag, but the power bank was not inside. Fortunately, she found a few hundred-yuan notes, went around a long way and finally bought the power bank, charged her phone, and bought one without calling Pei Che again. Zhang’s flight ticket to Jiangcheng.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Jianian returned to the villa in Jade Tianfu and went up to ring the doorbell.

The person who came to open the door was the nanny hired by Pei Che. Seeing that Shen Jia Nian was alone, the aunt looked surprised: "Miss Shen is back, isn't Mr. Pei with you? I heard that he went to Beicheng to find you."

The nanny didn't know the twists and turns between them. She only knew that Pei Che went to Beicheng to find Shen Jia Nian.

"He hasn't come back yet?" Shen Jianian asked.

"Nope."

Zhou Ruo came out of the room after taking a nap. Her waist had been aching for the past two days. She walked into the living room while beating her waist. She vaguely heard the nanny talking at the door: "Guilan, who are you chatting with?"

"It's Miss Shen who's back." The nanny was busy talking, forgetting that Shen Jia Nian had been standing outside, and quickly stepped aside, "Come in quickly, it's hot outside."

Shen Jianian put on her slippers and walked in, put down her cello, and when she saw Zhou Ruo, she didn't know what to say.

Zhou Ruo had the same idea as the nanny: "A'che didn't come back with you?"

Shen Jia Nian pursed her lips and shook her head. Her eyes were very red and her eyelids were a little swollen. She looked like she had lost her soul.

Facing her, Zhou Ruo also didn't know where to start. After a long silence, she asked Shen Jia Nian how he was doing in Beicheng: "That man named Fu didn't make things difficult for you, did he? Ah Che wanted to go to Beicheng to find you at that time. It was me. I stopped him and didn't let him go. He was injured and was in the hospital at that time, and I was afraid that he would make another mistake."

Shen Jianian initially suspected that Pei Che had not received the text message she sent, but now she realized that there was a reason why he came to her after so long.

She didn't blame him.

Fu Jichen kicked Pei Che hard that day, and Pei Che was in a very bad state at that time.

"Auntie, I want to ask you..." Shen Jianian sniffed, and his eyes began to sore again, "Ache said that my parents died because Uncle Pei designed to frame Shen. Is it true?"

Zhou Ruo's eyes were shocked. She didn't expect A Che to tell Xiao Nian the truth.

"Have you seen A Che?" Zhou Ruo was panicking and changed the subject.

Shen Jianian nodded and asked stubbornly: "Auntie, tell me the truth, is it what A Che said? He said that Uncle Pei harmed Mr. Shen, that my father suffered a heart attack and died of a heart attack, and that my mother... ..." She burst into tears, "My mother went with my father. Tell me, this is not true."

She asked again and again, just wanting a negative answer. As long as Zhou Ruo said it, she would believe it.

Zhou Ruo sighed. Since A Che had already told her, she didn't want to change the subject: "Our family is responsible for the evil. I can't forgive your parents, and I can't forgive you. Lao Pei also suffered retribution later, and it didn't take long for him to die." He suffered a stroke and was hospitalized and passed away.”

She felt that Pei Fengnan's death was not an accident, but that he wanted to die. During the days when he was receiving treatment in the hospital, Pei Fengnan didn't want to lie on the hospital bed like a useless person every day, being served, eaten, drunk, and defecated. He had been glorious and proud all his life, and he couldn't bear to be like this. When the nurse was away, he turned his head on his head. He fell out of bed and died after resuscitation failed. He went underground to make amends with his good brother.

Zhou Ruo couldn't help crying as he spoke.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Back then, Ache found out the real cause of the accident in your family and ran to Yicheng to find you. You refused to forgive him, so he began to give up on himself, go drinking, racing, and exile himself. He risked his life just to atone for his father's sins, and finally got into a car accident in Lingcheng, and both the man and the car fell off a cliff."

Shen Jianian took a breath. She didn't know that such a thing had happened.

"I don't want to think about those gloomy days. At that time, I just felt like the sky was falling, and I cried all day long. The relevant agencies issued a report saying that there was no chance of Ah Che surviving. I dreamed that he was all wet. Appearing at the door of my house, he was so pitiful. I thought he was buried at the bottom of the sea and could not rest in peace, so I held a funeral for him." Zhou Ruo recalled the past and wiped away tears welling up again, "Later I found out that he had been rescued and picked up. After returning with my life and seeing him alive, I don't ask for anything more. I just want him to be safe and stay with me."

Zhou Ruo held Shen Jia Nian's hand: "Xiao Nian, you two are both hard-working children. A Che knew that after you lost your memory, he didn't want you to live in the hatred of the past, so he decided to hide everything and wanted to start over with you. I persuaded him and said that maybe you didn’t want to be kept in the dark, but he said that you have all died once. God has mercy on you and has given you this opportunity so that you can put aside your past grievances and start a new life. Together. I relented and agreed to help him hide it. Xiao Nian, A Che loves you, and his original intention was not to hurt you. "

The phone rang. Shen Jianian took it out of his bag, unplugged the power bank, and put it to his ear to answer: "A Che."

"Where are you?" "I'm back to Jiangcheng." Shen Jianian looked at Zhou Ruo with tears in his eyes, "I'm in Jade Tianfu now."

Pei Che was still in Beicheng. After leaving Yunding Palace, he did not go to the airport but took a taxi to the cemetery. In the car, he received a call from Fu Jichen. He scolded Fu Jichen for a long time, but Fu Jichen did not reply.

After he had scolded him enough, Fu Jichen told him that Xiaonian had forgiven him a long time ago and did not hate anyone in the Pei family. She had said it herself back then that she decided to let go of her hatred and live her life well.

Fu Jichen's words untied the knot he had always felt, and there was no longer any hatred between him and Xiao Nian.

He bought three bouquets of flowers from a roadside flower shop to pay homage to his father and Xiaonian's parents. Beicheng was not as hot as Jiangcheng. At noon, he squatted in front of the tombstone and told all the things that had happened in the past three years. , after speaking, it felt like there was an empty space in my heart.

It was still far from true relief, but he wasn't so persistent.

Ever since Xiao Nian lost her memory, she had been living in the plot arranged by him. It was time for her to write the remaining chapters of her life.

Three years ago, he failed to learn to let go, and did not understand the truth that her happiness was also a kind of happiness for him. I hope that today, three years later, he can do a better job.

"I'm going to the airport now and will return to Jiangcheng later. If we have anything to say, we can meet up and talk."

After hanging up the phone, Pei Che breathed a sigh of relief, took a taxi to the airport, and arrived in Jiangcheng around six in the afternoon.

While Pei Che was on the plane, Shen Jia Nian slowly digested the whole thing. Maybe she had no memory of the incident. She only learned from other people's mouths that except for the moment of difficulty in accepting it, there was no deep hatred in her heart.

Shen Jianian stayed alone in the room, sitting by the window with her knees in her arms, her face resting on her knees, looking out the window. This was her favorite place to stay when she was in a daze.

Gradually, as the sun set, there was a knock on the door outside.

Shen Jiannian moved his stiff body, stood up and opened the door. Outside the door was Pei Che, who was tired of his travels. He looked a little haggard, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead and temples.

The moment their eyes met, Pei Che raised the corners of his mouth slightly, no longer filled with bitterness and sorrow: "Why are you back?"

In his expectation, when Xiao Nian knew the truth of the matter, he would not want to see him. Although Fu Jichen said that Xiao Nian had forgiven him, that was three years ago, and Xiao Nian may not choose to forgive him now.

Shen Jia Nian stepped back, his voice a little hoarse: "Come in."

Pei Che turned around and closed the door. Shen Jianian saw that the shirt on his back was wet with sweat. He didn't know where he had gone. There was also some dust on the shirt.

The first person to bring up the topic was Pei Che, who was surprised: "Fu Jichen is willing to let you go?"

That person was tough and arbitrary. When we met today, he told him that he would never let go of Xiao Nian. Why did he agree to it now?

"Yeah." Shen Jianian didn't know why Fu Jichen suddenly changed his mind and canceled the one-month period.

Is it because she cried too sadly?

Shen Jianian felt that it was awkward for her and Pei Che to mention Fu Jichen. She would feel ashamed of betraying Pei Che. In any case, Pei Che and her were still boyfriend and girlfriend.

"Xiao Nian, everything I told you in the villa is true." Pei Che said, "Whatever else you want to know, I will tell you. This is what I promised you before."

After Xiao Nian learned that she was Yan Qiusheng's apprentice, she once asked him to tell her all the things she had forgotten in the past. He promised her at the time, but failed to do so.

"However, during the days you have been with Fu Jichen, you may have learned everything you need to know." Pei Che put on a relaxed look and smiled, not wanting to make the atmosphere too sad, "Xiao Nian, I still want to say something to you. I'm sorry that I kept it secret from you for so long. This time, we really have to say goodbye."

He saw Shen Jia Nian crying, and his heart ached: "Xiao Nian, don't be sad. Separation does not mean loss. If you are willing, we will still be relatives in the future. If you need anything, you can tell me and I will help you. Maybe. In the near future, I will find a livable town abroad and call you to invite you to come for vacation."

Shen Jia Nian didn't know how many times this was the first time he had shed tears today. In his blurred vision, Pei Che's figure seemed to be getting further and further away.

Pei Che wiped her tears and she blinked. He was obviously so close to her.

"Xiao Nian, you will be happy." Pei Che gently hugged her into his arms and hugged her as if he was willful again.

Although he couldn't stand Fu Jichen, he was sincere to Xiao Nian. After what happened three years ago, he should know how to protect Xiao Nian. (End of chapter)
