2024-10-29 19:42:56Zhi Rou wiped away Yuan Rui’s tears and said, "I'm sorry I can't do anything to help you."
He chuckled humourlessly, looking into her glossy eyes he said, "You've done enough by entering my life, crying with me, and making me smile. But there is something you can do for me that I will appreciate dearly."
"What is that?" she asked, continuing to wipe away his tears. Smiling he asked, "Can you sing that song you sang for me last night, please?"
Lying her head down on his chest, Zhi Rou and started, "If you're not the one for me, then I'll come, I can bring you to your knees.
And if you're not the one for me, why do I hate the idea of being free.
And if I'm not the one for you, you better stop holding me the way you do.
Honey if I'm not the one for you, why have we been through what we have been through.
It's so cold oo out here, in your wilderness, I want you oo to be my keeper but not if you are so reckless.
If you're gonna let me down, let me down gently
Don't pretend that you don't want me
I love ain’t water under the bridge
If you're gonna let me down, let me down gently
Don't pretend that you don't want me
I love ain’t water under the bridge
Oh ooo o oh ooo o ooo o
Say that I love ain’t water under the bridge
And what are you waiting for
You never seem to make it through the door
And who are you hiding from?
It ain’t no life to live like you're on the run
Have I ever asked for much?
The only thing that I want is your love
If you're gonna let me down, let me down gently
Don't pretend that you don't want me
I love ain’t water under the bridge
If you're gonna let me down, let me down gently
Don't pretend that you don't want me
I love ain’t water under the bridge
Oh ooo o oh ooo o ooo o
Say that I love ain’t water under the bridge
It's so cold oo out here, in your wilderness, I want you oo to be my keeper but not if you are so reckless.
If you're gonna let me down, let me down gently
Don't pretend that you don't want me
I love ain’t water under the bridge
If you're gonna let me down, let me down gently
Don't pretend that you don't want me
I love ain’t water under the bridge
Oh ooo o oh ooo o ooo o
Say that I love ain’t water under the bridge
Oh ooo o oh ooo o ooo o
Say that I love ain’t water under the bridge"
*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Opening her eyes, Zhi Rou saw that Yuan Rui was asleep, and so as quietly as she could, she got up and walked out of the room. On her way out, she met with Huang Yunshen who was leaning against the wall outside his room.
He had a stack of papers in his hand, and it was all information about her. Zhi Rou looked up at him and said, "He's asleep."
Huang Yunshen nodded. She lowered her head because she wasn't fond of looking up too long, and Huang Yunshen was tall and dashing. Placing her hands in her pocket she said, "I'm heading out now and I don't know when I'll be able to see him again, do you have a pen so I can write my number down for him?"
Huang Yunshen observed at first then asked as he handed her, "What motives do you have by getting close to him?"
She looked up at him as though he was crazy, "How can you ask that? I'm his wife so why can't I get close to him?"
Huang Yunshen almost fell as he lost his balance. She took the stack of papers from him and wrote "Wife – 8965-5684-5782," at the back.
Huang Yunshen took the papers from her and saw that the Zhao family along with Jiang Hui Yin were heading towards them. Zhi Rou looked to where he was facing and saw that same woman from before was heading their way with a smile on her face, not depicting at all the sadness of the others beside her.
There was an elderly man who looked like Yuan Rui, a middle-aged man, a young man, and two women who looked like the middle-aged woman walking with them. Zhi Rou turned her attention to Huang Yunshen, who had a frown on his face. "Did you hear what he told me about them?" she asked him in a voice only he could hear.
He turned his attention to her, "Yes."
"Then help me get justice for my husband and find the evidence," she said looking at him.
‘I don't need you to tell me that but why wouldn't Yuan Rui tell me himself, doesn't he trust me? Or is it because he is depressed?’
Huang Yunshen's thoughts were clashing with one another as he thought of this but knew that it was best to get justice for his friend. His thoughts were pulled out as the Zhao family stopped in front of him. Greeting them all, he hesitated as he was about to greet Jiang Hui Yin with a hug.
Pushing his thoughts to the back of his head he walked in with them and indeed, Yuan Rui was asleep, exhausted from confessing his inner demons.

Yuan Rui left the hospital the Monday morning that following week but during this time, he wasn't as depressed as before. Every time Jiang Hui Yin or his cousin visited him, he'd pretend everything was normal, but he longed to see his wife Zhi Rou. During the last night at the hospital, he went over all the information Huang Yunshen gathered for him on her for the tenth time. He saw also that she had no phone number registered to her and the number she left was of her neighbour, an elderly man. Picking up his phone, he called his attendant, Qing Shan to visit him. Qing Shan arrived at the hospital, "I want you to get the guest room in my Shenmin Guodu residential complex ready for Miss Liu to stay in. After my release tomorrow, we'll go pick her up then go shopping for her essentials." Qing Shan looked at his you

Qing Shan excused himself because he still had some work left to do and the bodyguard Miki stationed himself outside Zhi Rou’s apartment. Zhi Rou came out of her bedroom wearing a red top that cupped her breasts perfectly. Towards the waist, it blew out a bit and when she twirled in it, it flared up. She paired the red top with black shorts that hugged her butt and wore black gladiator sandals. She smiled at him as she tied her hair up in a ponytail, "Ready for breakfast?" He looked at her from where he sat. "Can you cook?" He asked sceptically. She flung her hair to the back and nodded, "Sit tight handsome, and I'll be done in a few." Zhi Rou walked past him into the open kitchen. Yuan Rui watched her walk over and couldn't help but think her butt that was out was c

Yuan Rui gazed around the living room and saw that there were paintings resting against the walls. He wheeled over and looked at them. Picking up the first painting, he saw that it depicted beautiful scenery. The nearer clouds in the sky were dark grey with a purple undertone, and the ones in the distance were lighter, changing from blue to purple. The sky was lit up by bright purple lightning, with some streaks bright white streaks enhancing the effect. On the ground were pinkish-purple roses with dark green leaves and stems. The ground itself was hidden by the flowers and grass that grew but there was a clear path down the middle as though one had walked through it paring the roses. The feeling Yuan Rui got from this painting alone was ethereal. It gave off a surreal feeling but made him wonder why the beauty captured in this painting was angry. The anger c

Yuan Rui informed Zhi Rou that all her stuff was going to be moved to his apartment and the landlord was notified and paid three months' rent so that he wouldn't complain. Yuan Rui put on a black surgical mask before they went into ShanMall where they needed to purchase her essentials. Zhi Rou was against buying clothes for herself but Yuan Rui made up an excuse of "You will be a rich man's wife soon, so you need to dress well." Rolling her eyes, Zhi Rou gave up but told him that she didn't want clothes that were too expensive. She pushed him through the busy mall. They were drawing attention from everyone. They looked like a happy couple, a wife pushing her husband in fact. Walking into a jewellery store Yuan Rui said, "You aren't allowed to spend less than 10,000 Yuan in this shop. Your jewellery limit is 30,000 Yuan."

Yuan Rui smirked. He pulled out his phone and texted a list to Qing Shan of what Zhi Rou needed to get. Yuan Rui also told Qing Shan to print it and bring it to him and to help carry Zhi Rou’s things around. Qing Shan was done with all his work and was currently looking through video footage that he found at a store near where his young master's accident had taken place. He had contacted all the stores that were in the area, but they had excuses saying that their cameras were broken or there was no footage at all. Only this store had no excuse and let him go through it. He paid the shop owner to keep quiet about this and took the footage with him. Zhi Rou pushed Yuan Rui into one of China's leading designing brands that his sister owned, Mian Bag's, a branch of her Zhao Mian legacy. Thanks to the mask he wa

After Qing Shan left, they went into a perfume shop where Zhi Rou tested over fifty fragrances and finally picked one named “Moss.” She looked at Yuan Rui, "Honey, how about this, how does it smell to you?" she asked as she dabbed it onto her neck. Yuan Rui felt warm and fuzzy hearing Zhi Rou call him honey, especially the way she said it so naturally. She sat down on him and stretched her neck out. He hesitated for a moment then slowly lowered his head down to her neck. Smelling her neck, Yuan Rui accidentally brushed his nose against Zhi Rou’s skin. She gasped and froze for a moment. She raised her head, slowly coming face to face with Yuan Rui. His eyes met hers, sending him into a tranquil note. It felt as though he was swimming in an ocean looking into her eyes

Yuan Rui, Zhi Rou, and Qing Shan moved further into the mall. Zhi Rou looked around at the different stores and spotted another jewellery shop that advertised piercings as well. Her eyes sparkled and she made a beeline to the shop, surprising both Yuan Rui and Qing Shan. The shop was small, and the wheelchair couldn't go further than reaching the counter in the centre of it. She walked around Yuan Rui and stopped at the counter. Zhi Rou greeted the young man behind the counter. "Good morning, my boyfriend and I want to pierce our noses." "No, I don't!" Yuan Rui interjected. Zhi Rou turned her head to look at him and pouted. "But baby, you said you'd do anything I want today since it's my birthday and I want us to get nose piercings – you know? Like couples shirts but a couples nose piercing."

The assistant wanted to say, 'His wife just spoke about buying a 10,000-piece puzzle that alone cost more than a mere book' but kept her calm and smiled. "I'm sorry but there is nothing we can do." "Nothing you can do? I'll go call the security guards and report you to management!" Another of the women protested. Qing Shan didn't like the attitudes of the young women but since his young master was patiently waiting, he didn't have a reason to react. But just because he didn't have a reason, he couldn't believe that Zhi Rou was nowhere to be seen. There was only one door, and she couldn't have left the shop. As he was scanning the back of the store, he saw her walking towards them. Her expression told him that she was displeased and Qing Shan hoped that she'd do something about them.

She signed for it and walked in while she yelled, “Yuan Rui! You have a gift.”He walked down the steps with his phone in his hands and looked at her, confused. “Flowers? From who?”She shrugged and handed him the flowers and crossed her hands the moment he took them. He looked around for the card and peaked at his wife, who had a frown.

She went to the kitchen first to make herself something to eat, but then she heard a laugh that she hadn’t heard in a long time. Her heart skipped a beat, recalling how they used to spend time together and loved each other. Thinking about it, she wondered when she stopped loving him. She took in a deep breath and went to him with a sandwich for him, too. Yuan Rui immediately looked at her, shocked when

He wasn’t sure what to do or what to say and it was not like he had a guilty conscience, it's just that he betrayed everyone and he was not sure how they were going to act when they saw him.He rang the doorbell, and the butler opened it.

Little Shao followed behind his father while Zhi Ling was crawling around.Zhi Rou had the baby in her arms and her son was not happy about it, giving her the silent treatment.

Yuan Rui saw Jiang Hui Yin walking out of the prison doors and climbed out of the car. She looked at him, surprised when she saw him. She was just released from prison with no information and seeing him in front of her, everything made sense.She smirked inwardly, thinking, ‘You are such a fool.’ She smiled at him as she stopped in front of him. Looking into his eyes she said, “I knew you would come for us.”He stared at her momentarily, then looked down at the baby boy in her arms. He took the child from her, confusing her. She also wanted to protest, but then thought that it would be best not to make him angry.He looked at her and saw that she had an uncomfortable expression on her face and said, “I only dropped the charges because you can’t raise this child in prison.” He walked back to the car, climbing in at the back and closed the door.She thought he was going to leave her behind and

He handed her a plate of sandwiches and asked, “So, is he a genius in the making?” Zhi Rou shook her head while she bit down on the chicken sandwich, “No, I just think he is messing with us and that shit isn’t going to wash off.” “We’ll have to paint over it before we move out,” he said to her. She raised a brow asking, “But we just moved into this place,” referring to the estate the Zhao’s owned. He smirked and said, “I don’t actually like this place, weren’t you talking about a house with three or four bedrooms?” She rolled her eyes at him, “I am not about to pack and unpack to make things co

If I am late for my meeting you will be a motherless child,” she warned him.He started laughing and waddled towards her. She held out her hand for him to grab her hand and she said, “I don’t understand why you are so afraid of walking, you could have been walking years ago but nooo, you choose now only.”She picked him up and stripped him out of his clothes and said, “You are going to bath now and then I am going to dress you up in a suit and we’ll get your sister and head to the office.&

Zhi Rou sat in a wheelchair outside the surgery room and looked at her husband who was sitting not too far from her on a hospital chair eating ice cream. He looked down at her when he felt someone staring at him and smiled at her, “What are you thinking?”“Nothing in particular,” she answered.“Then why the long face? Are you going to cry?” He asked.She shook her head, “No, I’m just wondering how long her hair is going to be. Mine was so crazy to maintain that I ended up cutting it.”“Yes, only after I kicked you out of the house,” Yuan Rui answered with a smirk.Zhao Mian walked over holding Shaotian with her father beside her.

She could see the baby had an oxygen tank attached to her in a Neonatal Intensive Care bed.Zhao Chou sighed rocking back and forth with Shaotian asleep in her arms and said, "The doctors said her womb ruptured and there was accessive bleeding. She's in an induced coma to heal and might stay longer in hospital as well. The baby was fine when your brother was still here but she suddenly stopped breathing. They resuscitated her and now she is on oxygen support.”Zhao Mian sighed as she sat down beside her mother and she kissed Shaotian on the head, “He must be really worried about her, babies
