99 Escapes From the Prideful President - C20
It was laughable that Yu Zhentian was still standing in front of everyone, showing how heartbroken he was about his beloved wife leaving. To say that his mother didn’t like the atmosphere and was a bit more ordinary was even more laughable that she actually believed Yu Zhentian’s words.
Now that he thought about it, he did not care about his mother at all. Otherwise, he would not have come to the cemetery to see his mother, much less rush to marry Xiao San!
However, she would not say anything in front of her mother. She did not want her to be unhappy down there.
“Mom …”
There was a black-and-white photo of a woman with her hair tied up in a bun. Her face was serene, and her smile was gentle.
Just as Yu Anyu opened his mouth to speak, his vision turned hazy. She forced back her tears and smiled at the person in the photo. “Mom, I’ve come to see you.”
Then, he placed the Gardenia Flower in his hand in front of the tombstone, “Your favorite flower, I’ve also brought it. It’s still the same smell, and it hasn’t changed.”
Before her death, her mother loved the gardenia in a florist’s shop, because the flowers there were all natural. Unlike in some places, where the blooming period was extended, the fragrance of the flowers became even stronger and the smell of the flowers became stronger, destroying the most natural flowers.
“Wait a moment.”
After saying this, Yu Anhui began to clean up the weeds on the ground. This was the scene that Shen Mo Ke saw when he arrived.
The little woman bent down and used her white hands to pull the weeds around the tombstone. The mud stained her body, and the sun shined brightly. Her forehead was covered densely in sweat as it slid down her face, merging with the earth.
But she kept smiling, as if she were talking to her mother, who was sleeping inside.
All of a sudden, Shen Mo Ke thought to himself: The setting sun is really beautiful, not as beautiful as the smiling face of a beautiful woman.
When she was finally done, Yu An Nian sat down on the ground and tore off the rubber band on her butt. Instantly, her long hair flowed down to her waist, causing her skin to be even whiter than before.
“Mom, I’ve been doing very well. Although my grades aren’t too good, I might have to disappoint mom.”
Mother had always hoped that she would be able to grow up carefree and without worries. She didn’t really care about her grades, because as long as her mother was around, she could gracefully end Yu An Nian’s life as a famous woman.
“Mom, these two years of recitation have changed a lot. I am no longer the famous woman that Mom is proud of, but …”
Yu An’s words suddenly changed. With a bright smile, he raised his head and said, “I’m very free right now. I won’t restrain myself. I’m happier now than I was before, so don’t blame me, okay?”
The little girl leaned her head against the tombstone, blinking, as if she was just as warm as when her mother had held her in her arms when she was a child.
If she only reported the good news, her mother would be suspicious and worried. Her mother was already lying in that ice-cold house, so she should give her a bit of humanity. She didn’t want her mother to worry about her.
The man’s footsteps approached bit by bit. Perhaps she was too engrossed, until a tall shadow enveloped her. Only then did she finally react.
Lifting his head, he was astonished to find that it was Shen Mo Ke.
Shen Mo Ke looked at her with disdain, “Little Flower Cat.”
Yu Anhui, “…”
Putting on a pair of white gloves, Shen Mo Ke bent down and asked in a cold and pleasant voice, “How long are you planning to sit on the ground for?”
For some reason, upon hearing his words, Yu Anhui felt his head twitch. He used the force of his palm to lift himself up. His thin white gloves seemed to be able to transmit the ice-cold temperature of a man’s body.
“How long are you going to hold it for?”
“Huh?” Only then did Yu Anhui realize that he was staring at Shen Mo Ke in a daze, and his own hand was still in Shen Mo Ke’s palm, it looked like … Yu Anxin held his hand, unwilling to let go.
Yu Anxian’s face turned red and he quickly tried to retract his hand. The man’s hand suddenly exerted force and his ten fingers were locked together. With another pull, Yu Anhui was caught off guard and fell into his chest.
The man’s cold aura instantly enveloped her, and the suit that did not have the slightest crease immediately wrapped around her head.
What was even more strange was that her heart actually slowed down by half a beat.
A faint fragrance drifted into the tip of his nose as he stuck close to the girl’s soft body. A dim light flashed across the man’s eyes.
“Girls sometimes don’t have to be so strong.”
His low and sexy voice sounded above her, but it also carried a trace of helplessness. His other hand stroked her fluffy head. This feeling … What he was thinking of for Yu An was, playing cat!
Shen Mo Ke actually treated her like a cat and tried to touch her!
However, it was undeniable that Shen Mo Ke’s words had moved her. She became silent, not saying a word.
Perhaps this little woman still hadn’t realized that there was a bright red palm mark on her left cheek. Adding to that, when Ling An said that she had gone to the Yu Family this morning, Shen Mo Ke’s deep eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.
After a few seconds, the woman raised her head and said, “Thank you, Young Master Mo.”
With that, she pushed him away without a shred of nostalgia.
Shen Mo Ke was slightly displeased.
He stretched out two fingers and grabbed Yu Anxin’s chin. It wasn’t heavy nor light, but Yu Anxian seemed to be in a daze, and he had completely forgotten to struggle free.
The rough fingers caressed the soft spot on her left cheek. Suddenly, she pressed it down, causing Yu An to cry out in pain.
“Come with me to the car.”
It was faint, but it carried with it an order that could not be resisted.
Yu Anxin nervously touched her cheek, feeling a bit of pain. She remembered now that the weather had shaken, she had been slapped in the face by the aftershock!
She actually came to her mother’s grave without any preparation …
Her face made her mother see that it was no longer appropriate. She pursed her lips and raised her eyes. The man’s big body had already turned his back on her as he walked away. After hesitating for a moment, he still trotted after her.
Shen Mo Ke seemed to be deliberately slowing down his pace as Yu An Nian easily caught up to him. A moment later, a domineering Rolls-Royce appeared before his eyes on an empty patch of grass.
“Let’s go in.”
The man didn’t even raise his head as he spoke to her before taking off his somewhat dirty gloves. His slender and pretty fingers were revealed, and when he thought back to how her hands had been wrapped in clean gloves, entwined with her ten fingers, her white cheeks seemed to be dyed with the sunset glow, just like the tender bud of a flower.
He bent down and got into the back seat.
Yu An covered his heart with his hand and inhaled deeply… Exhaling, he finally calmed down.
At this moment, the back seat door was suddenly opened. The man made a grabbing motion with his hand and pulled Yu Anhui’s slender waist into his embrace. Under his panic, Yu Anhui laid him down on the back seat.
“Don’t move.”
Just as Yu Anxin was about to struggle free, a gentle force pressed down on her face. An ice-cold feeling spread out, alleviating the red and swollen pain.
The man’s deep facial features were magnified before her eyes, and under his straight nose were his thin lips.
The man used his strength very lightly. He wiped the blood off of his face with extreme concentration. Yu An’s spirit wavered, and the weight pressing down on his body disappeared.
