Chapter 47 A Romantic Walk
Coming to the cemetery again, Shangguan Yanting's mood was complicated.The last time he came here, he only wanted to catch Ye Tianqi out.Now, there are other things in his mood that tie him down.

Still as usual, I brought my father's favorite flower during his lifetime.At the same time, there is an extra box of cakes.Caressing the tombstone, looking at the man in the photo, Shangguan Yanting said slowly, "Dad, happy birthday."

The cemetery was silent, and no one responded to his words.But Shangguan Yanting didn't care, as if the man on the tombstone was chatting with him. "During this period of time, I have been trying my best to catch Ye Tianqi. However, things did not go as smoothly as I imagined." Shangguan Yanting said in a low voice.

Thinking of how much he cared about Li Manrong, Shangguan Yanting couldn't help but close his eyes.He wanted to treat her indifferently, but found that his heart would always go against his wishes.That feeling is very bad.

After a long silence, Shangguan Yanting said hoarsely: "I shouldn't be soft-hearted towards her. To me, she is just a tool that can be used, nothing more."

Leaning his head against the tombstone, he touched it lightly.When I think of my father when he was alive, I always play with him.It's just that those things, a little long ago, are about to become blurred. "Mom...has she... come to see you?" Shangguan Yanting asked softly.

Before coming here, he had called Ouyang Yaqin, but no one answered.Sometimes, Shangguan Yanting would resent Ouyang Yaqin's ruthlessness.Years of love between husband and wife can be erased just because one person passed away?
With a slight smile on his lips, Shangguan Yanting said slowly: "Dad, soon, I will let Ye Heng go down to accompany you. If you see him then, you must take revenge. Ye Tianqi is now in Ludao City, I will find a way to get him to show up."

About two hours later, Shangguan Yanting finally got up.Bowing respectfully to his father, Shangguan Yanting turned and left.At this moment, he was at peace.He told himself that when dealing with Li Manrong, he could only treat Li Manrong with the mentality of taking advantage of him, and he could not invest in real feelings.

When I got home, it was already night.Walking to the entrance, a plain white figure ran towards him quickly.Throwing into his arms, Li Manrong raised her head and said with a smile, "I'm back."

Lowering his head, looking at the smiling face, Shangguan Yanting's thoughts were a little messy. After 1 minute, he responded with a faint smile: "Well, have you eaten yet?"

Holding his arm, Li Manrong said coquettishly: "Not yet, you haven't come back yet, why should I eat so fast. The food is still hot, are you hungry?"

While speaking, Li Manrong pulled her and walked towards the restaurant.Shangguan Yanting didn't stop her and let her go.The simple home-cooked food caused rippling in Shangguan Yanting's heart.After so many years abroad, he rarely felt the warmth of his family.

Pressing him on the chair, Li Manrong trotted to the kitchen to serve him a meal.Grab the bowls and chopsticks, and come to him: "Come, let's eat."

Shangguan Yanting picked up the chopsticks, glanced at her, and then began to move the chopsticks.Li Manrong sat beside him, serving her food from time to time, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.

After dinner, Li Manrong took the initiative to wash the dishes.Shangguan Yanting stood at the door of the kitchen, leaning against the wall, watching her silently.These days, he has felt a lot of long-lost warmth from her.

Noticing his gaze, Li Manrong turned her head and said shyly, "What are you looking at, I haven't seen anyone washing dishes."

"No." Shangguan Yanting replied truthfully.Ouyang Yaqin would never do these things, and he was not interested in watching the servants wash the dishes.

After quickly cleaning the bowl and washing hands, Li Manrong came to him and took his hand: "Yan Ting, let's go for a walk later. Just thinking about it, we seem to seldom go for a walk, just like those ordinary Like husband and wife."

Ordinary couple?Shangguan Yanting was about to refuse, but after thinking about it, he agreed: "Okay."

After changing his clothes and putting on simple casual clothes, Shangguan Yanting and Li Manrong walked side by side on the street.Holding his arm, leaning her head on his arm, Li Manrong looked at the lively street with bright eyes.

When the lights come on, the beautiful neon lights reflect different colors.Li Manrong looked up at the starry sky and said with emotion: "I was not in the mood to appreciate the night view of Ludao City before. Now I realize that I missed a lot of things. What about you, did you go to enjoy the night view?"

Looking at her pretty profile, Shangguan Yanting said in a low voice, "Not that interested."

This answer is really powerful.The corners of Li Manrong's mouth twitched, and she complained, "You, you are so boring."

Putting one hand in his trouser pocket, Shangguan Yanting asked rhetorically, "What do you want to be romantic about?" In the past, his focus of life was only on running his business well.

Responding in silence, Li Manrong didn't know how to answer.Patting his arm, Li Manrong said excitedly: "From now on, let's take a walk like this often. When we make walking a habit, when we get old, there will be things to do."

When we are old... an unintentional sentence touched his heartstrings.Looking at her smiling face, Shangguan Yanting was speechless for a moment.Will the two of them have a future?

His thoughts drifted away, and for some reason, there was a kind of reluctance in his heart.It seems that he doesn't want to end with her so soon.To him, this feeling was a terrifying existence.

Unaware of his strangeness, Li Manrong's gaze was attracted by the lollipop not far away.Letting go of his hand, Li Manrong trotted over.Standing where he was, looking at her with joy, Shangguan Yanting's gaze became focused.

After buying two lollipops, Li Manrong jumped towards him.At this time, a fast-moving motorcycle came running wildly.Seeing this, Shangguan Yanting's eyes flashed nervously, and he quickly walked towards her.

Li Manrong couldn't help but stop when she heard the dazzling lights.In the next second, someone pulled his body forcefully.Opening his eyes, it was his nervous eyes that fell into sight: "Are you an idiot? Didn't you see that motorcycle was about to hit you!"

Shangguan Yanting raised his voice and yelled at her loudly.There was obvious anxiety in his voice.It took Li Manrong a while to realize, she pulled his sleeve, like a child who did something wrong: "I'm sorry, the light was too dazzling just now, so..."

With lingering fear, he didn't know what would happen if the car hit her. "Walk carefully in the future, you know?" Seeing her admitting her mistake, Shangguan Yanting's anger gradually dissipated.

Looking up, Li Manrong nodded in agreement.Handing him a lollipop, Li Manrong said with a smile: "It's delicious, come and try it. This was my favorite snack when I was young."

Shangguan Yanting didn't take it, and said indifferently: "I don't like sweets..."

Before the words finished, Li Manrong directly stuffed the lollipop into his mouth.Seeing him pause, Li Manrong smiled, like a child who just did something bad: "How does it taste? Sweet and sour, not bad."

While talking, Li Manrong picked up the one that belonged to her, and ate it with great interest: "When my father was not addicted to alcohol, he would buy me lollipops when he came back from get off work. Later, my father became addicted to alcohol. If you are addicted to alcohol, you will no longer have this spare money. Lollipops have also become a luxury."

Listening to her talking about the past, Shangguan Yanting's expression was calm.The lollipop in my mouth didn't seem to be as bad as I imagined. "Have you had a hard time?" Shangguan Yanting asked simply.

After taking a bite, Li Manrong said with a charming smile: "It's okay to say that. At that time, my mother used to make money for me to go to school, and the tuition fees were secretly hidden at my aunt's house. Otherwise, my father would have found it long ago. I bought wine. Even if I eat, there are only one or two vegetables."

Speaking of these, she seemed to be talking about other people's affairs, with a warm smile on her face all the time. "You don't resent? Maybe you will have a better life in the orphanage." Shangguan Yanting said calmly.

Looking at the candy in her hand, Li Manrong shook her head and smiled softly: "Why do you want to be resentful? Without them, I would be an orphan. Every child longs for fatherly love and motherly love, and so do I. I am an abandoned My parents don’t want me as an orphan, so it’s not bad to have adoptive parents.”

Abandoned... Frowning, Shangguan Yanting said abruptly: "You are not abandoned."

Li Manrong simply smiled.Now, she has looked away. "You don't need to comfort me, how many children in the orphanage are not abandoned. I have already accepted my fate." Li Manrong said with a light smile.

The big fire flashed in front of his eyes, and he couldn't help clenching his fists.Some words are destined not to be spoken at this time.Looking sideways, Jiang's gaze fell elsewhere.

Finally finished eating the candy, Li Manrong took his hand and said bouncingly: "You walk so slowly, like a grandpa. I was thinking, what will happen when both of our hairs are gray?" What does it look like? Just thinking about it makes me look forward to it."

"Damn old man and old woman." Shangguan Yanting said leisurely.

Seeing him making jokes rarely, Li Manrong bent over and chuckled: "Yes, we will become an old man and an old woman by then. However, you are still a handsome old man, and my face may be covered with wrinkles."

Nodding in agreement, Shangguan Yanting replied seriously: "Well, it's ugly."

Smiling and patting his chest, Li Manrong said coquettishly: "If you hate it, you will laugh at me and ignore you." After speaking, Li Manrong quickly ran forward.

Shangguan Yanting still stood there, just looking at her.After running for a certain distance, Li Manrong came back and pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Idiot, you are such an idiot, don't you know you are going to chase me? If I run away, you should come after me."

With a smile in his eyes, Shangguan Yanting replied coolly: "I'm not used to that."

After glaring at him, Li Manrong suddenly asked: "If one day I really run away, will you come after me?"

can you?Shangguan Yanting looked at her thoughtfully.If she really disappeared, would he not care, or...
