After a Flash Marriage With the Disabled Tyrant - Chapter 38
Out of bounds?
Shi Yunnan recalled the word and let out a wry smile subconsciously.
Looking at Luo Lingsheng in front of him, he suddenly felt as if he had made a mistake. He thought that the two had developed other feelings based on the ‘agreement’.
But now a simple word is pulling his sanity.
It turned out that he was in Luo Lingsheng’s heart, but he was just an outsider who had crossed the line.
“…”
A new round of silence spreads.
Luo Lingsheng suddenly did not dare to look directly into Shi Yunnan’s eyes. For the first time in his life, he was trapped in self-blame, low self-esteem and guilt and couldn’t break free.
During the hard breathing, his tense heartstrings were almost snapped.
Shi Yunnan slowly got up.
Just when Luo Lingsheng thought Shi Yunnan was about to leave, he just pushed the wheelchair farther back in front of him.
Yes.
It may be difficult for Luo Lingsheng to get a wheelchair position by himself.
“I know what you’re afraid of, but the inconvenience of your legs has never been your problem. You’ve already lived better than most people.”
Shi Yunnan lowered his eyes and quietly looked at Luo Lingsheng, who was like a trapped beast on the ground. He couldn’t say whether he felt more distressed for the other party or more distressed for himself.
“Luo Lingsheng, I’m leaving now.”
“Get up by yourself.”
Shi Yunnan said these words and quickly walked out of the training room. When he stepped out of the door, he happened to meet Luo Rong who was coming.
The two faced each other, Luo Rong was a little surprised, “Mr. Shi? Is Ling Sheng in there?”
“exist.”
Shi Yunnan suppressed the astringency that gradually filled his heart, “But you’d better not disturb him now.”
Before Luo Lingsheng was back in the wheelchair, he should not want anyone to see his embarrassment.
After Shi Yunnan finished speaking, he quickly passed her by.
Luo Rong stopped in place for a while, as a woman’s natural intuition told her—
Shi Yunnan’s mood seemed to be a little off.
However, the two were always strangers who met for the first time, and there were some things she couldn’t get into.
Luo Rong waited outside for two or three minutes according to Shi Yunnan’s wishes, and then walked in.
…
Shi Yunnan suppressed the chaos rising in his mind and walked out for more than ten meters, and stopped reluctantly.
He lowered his head and stepped on the small stone under his feet, muttering like a vent, “Crossing the line? I crossed the line?”
If I really crossed the line, I would have climbed into your Luo Lingsheng’s bed long ago! It’s really a householder’s habit, and he can jump out of anything!
But on second thought, Shi Yunnan also understood.
Luo Lingsheng just cares too much about his legs, so he will take a moment to press him with heavy words.
Shi Yunnan caught a glimpse of the couple’s watch on his wrist, and his mood fluctuated again, but after a moment of hesitation, he immediately turned back and walked towards the training room.
It’s been like this anyway.
Some thoughts, he does not vomit unhappy.
The worst result is that Luo Lingsheng can’t accept it, and the two of them are together and away.
Shi Yunnan returned to the independent training room. As soon as he entered the door, he heard faint chatter. He subconsciously slowed down his footsteps, and even suppressed the urge to enter the door to confess.
Shi Yunnan stood in the corner of the visual blind spot, and through the frosted glass, he could vaguely see the situation on the inside——
One person in the room was Luo Rong standing, and the other was Luo Lingsheng, who had already sat back in a wheelchair.
Shi Yunnan knew that eavesdropping on other people’s speech was not a moral thing, so he was about to enter the room aloud, but Luo Rong’s question suddenly made him freeze in place.
“Why suddenly get married? Or with Mr. Shi?”
At this second, even if he knew that such a ‘eavesdropping’ was disrespectful, Shi Yunnan still stood at the corner and did not move.
Luo Lingsheng in the room was silent and did not speak, but Luo Rong continued the topic, “I remember you didn’t have someone you really liked before? Before the Luo family’s big incident, weren’t you planning to chase someone?”
“…”
For a moment, the light in Shi Yunnan’s eyes dimmed, and he suddenly recalled the conversation he overheard with the servants just before entering the Luo family.
– Does the owner have someone in his heart? Who, how do you know?
——I also heard others guess. The owner of the house had a very favorite person before, and before he could pursue it, he had an accident and injured his leg. This is not the case.
Shi Yunnan always thought that these gossips were just jokes made by servants, but now that even Luo Rong said similar things, he knew that everything was true.
Luo Lingsheng pretended to be Bai Yueguang in his heart, and he was just an outsider who ‘agreed to marry’ and could not cross the line.
Shi Yunnan’s hands hanging on both sides clenched into fists unconsciously, and the courage that finally poured out under the impulse was completely dispelled.
He was afraid that staying here would only hear more of what he didn’t want to hear, so he turned slightly stiffly, and walked away as if escaping.
The conversation inside the house continued.
Luo Rong rarely saw Luo Lingsheng’s distracted appearance, and said in surprise, “Lingsheng? What do you think? I finally came to see you, but you are still here with me?”
“I just saw that Mr. Shi was in a bad state. Did the two of you quarrel?”
Luo Lingsheng’s own sister and Luo Rong were of the same age. Although the elders fought openly and secretly, the two cousins had a good relationship since childhood, even with Luo Lingsheng and Luo Rong.
Back then, before the big incident in the Luo family, the three sisters and brothers gathered together for a drink and chat, that is, under the unanimous coaxing and questioning of his own sister and cousin, Luo Lingsheng reluctantly said, “I have someone I like in my heart”.
But the good times didn’t last long, and Mr. Luo died of a heart attack not long after, and after that, the whole family was fighting over and over again.
Luo Lingsheng went through a lot of hardships to become the head of the family. So many people in the imperial family tried to get into his eyes, but the results were all there—
No one can succeed.
Some people approach it improperly, and the end is even worse.
Everyone said that Luo Lingsheng definitely didn’t plan to find his other half.
When these things came to Luo Rong’s ears, she took it for granted that her cousin still had the secret love object hidden in her heart, but it was because of the inconvenience of her legs that she was reluctant to act.
But she didn’t expect that news of Luo Lingsheng and Shi Yunnan’s marriage license would suddenly come out this year.
No, she finally caught the air and returned to China, so she naturally wanted to ask clearly.
Luo Lingsheng’s eyes showed complexity and self-blame, and asked, “Did you just go out and meet him?”
“Yes, I don’t think he’s in a high mood.” Luo Rong told the truth, and her curiosity grew stronger. “Tell me, what’s the matter with the two of you?”
She really could not have imagined that Luo Lingsheng’s character could actually play flash marriage with others.
“As you can see, I am serious about marrying him.”
Luo Lingsheng’s answer was very brief.
He’s not someone who likes to reveal his private life to the outside world.
Luo Rong asked again, “…Then the person in your heart back then has now been let go?”
“Never else.”
A simple one-sentence answer completely shook Luo Rong in place.
She let out an unbelievable short laugh, obviously not expecting the person in front of her to be her sweetheart in her cousin’s place.
Luo Lingsheng didn’t care about her reaction, she just asked, “Don’t ask Yun Nan about this, I don’t want to burden him.”
The two went in the form of ‘agreement to marry’. If Shi Yunnan got tired of this kind of life one day, he could let each other leave at any time.
Since the accident, he has struggled to heal his leg, but every time it is hopeless and then lost.
If he was destined to live in a wheelchair all his life, he shouldn’t force Shi Yunnan to do anything ‘crossing the line’.
He doesn’t matter in this life, but he can’t hurt Shi Yunnan.
Luo Rong was measured, “Don’t worry, I’m going to fly abroad this afternoon, and I don’t know when I will return to China next time. I won’t mess with your husband’s affairs.”
She looked at Luo Lingsheng’s legs and mentioned the serious business that came here on purpose, “By the way, I have something important to tell you.”
“what?”
“I asked your cousin-in-law to contact the most authoritative Bence team in the world’s neurology department for you, which happens to be the same source as the Dr. Michele team you received treatment before.”
Luo Rong is married to a foreigner who is the director of a foreign private hospital and has many medical contacts.
In the past two years about Luo Lingsheng, the husband and wife have been worrying a lot.
“They had contact with a patient six months ago, and the situation was similar to yours. After a half-year rest and rehabilitation after the operation, although they have not reached the level of normal people, at least they don’t need to rely on a wheelchair to live all day.”
“The two teams directly contacted by your brother-in-law gave a general overview of your situation. The two sides discussed and studied for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that ‘you can try’, but there is no guarantee.”
“The most difficult part is that the success rate of the operation is very low, and if this treatment fails, your sciatic nerve may not be able to withstand any further rehabilitation and treatment…”
In other words, the chances of a successful operation are far lower than the harms of a failed operation.
After Luo Lingsheng heard these words, he was silent for a long time.
Luo Rong knew that it was difficult to do, so she had to give advice firstly, “Your brother-in-law means that if you are willing, you’d better go for a comprehensive inspection and let the teams on both sides re-evaluate based on your current situation. “
Everyone is an independent individual, and the specific situation still needs to be analyzed in detail.
As for money, what the Luo family lacked the most was money. As long as there was hope for a cure, everything would be easy to negotiate.
“When can I make an appointment for an examination?” Luo Lingsheng asked in a determined way, and all he could think of was Shi Yunnancai’s wink.
“I think the sooner the better.”
“If you are in a hurry, go abroad with me this afternoon? I guessed that you will not give up. I called your brother-in-law yesterday. If you are sure, you should be able to make an appointment tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”
Luo Lingsheng replied, “Okay.”
…
The wind on both sides of the car window poured in frantically, whistling in Shi Yunan’s ears, but even this couldn’t quench the indescribable anxiety in his heart.
He thought that his behavior for more than three months was absurd and ridiculous.
Because of one night’s dream, I changed a paper agreement, and I was cocooning myself because of this, and I fell in love with someone I shouldn’t like.
In the end, it wasn’t even his turn to confess to Luo Lingsheng, and he understood that he was just a superfluous person.
When he thought of using the so-called ‘agreement’ against Luo Lingsheng, he even called him ‘husband’ twice, and he felt ashamed as never before.
Shi Yunnan squeezed the choked sobbing in his throat, and simply parked the car in the parking space on the side of the road.
He took out his cell phone and flipped through it.
Wen Yibei experienced a quarrel at the banquet only yesterday, and Shi Yunnan didn’t want to continue to bring his negative emotions to the other party.
Shi Yunnan thought for a while, and immediately called his friend.
The phone beeped for a while before being connected by Fu Ziyu, “Hey, son, what are you doing?”
“Are you in a nightclub?” Shi Yunan asked.
Fu Ziyu was stunned for a while, and said in a hoarse voice, “It’s only two o’clock in the afternoon. Whose nightclub is doing business during the day? This week the nightclub holds an event. I’m busy every day until four or five in the morning, and I don’t sleep until I’m exhausted. already.”
Fu Ziyu’s voice on the phone was indeed full of exhaustion. He seemed to be half asleep and asked, “What happened? I’m getting up and looking for you now?”
“Forget it, it’s nothing to worry about.”
Shi Yunnan refused, pretending to be relaxed, “It’s just that I haven’t sat down with you for a long time and had a good drink. The last time I didn’t even start at the nightclub, I left Yuan Rui’s business temporarily.”
“Damn, that’s not easy? Come over tonight, and I’ll accompany you to drink enough.”
Across the phone, Fu Ziyu, who was woken up in his sleep, didn’t notice anything unusual about his friend.
He paused for a while, and then jokingly said, “However, you should talk to Luo Lingsheng first, lest he…”
When Shi Yunnan heard the name, he frowned and interrupted, “Stop talking, go to sleep.”
After speaking, he hurriedly hung up the phone as if to escape, and his heart was even more uncomfortable.
Shi Yunnan looked at the few names recorded in the call contact book, and his heart was empty.
He has not returned to China many times over the years. If there is no “agreement relationship” with Luo Lingsheng, he will not have much place abroad at all. Just like now, he can’t find a place to temporarily hide.
Just as I was thinking, an unfamiliar phone number called.
Shi Yunnan hesitated for a while, then answered the phone, “Hello.”
“Hello, is this Mr. Shi?”
The voice on the other end of the phone was familiar, Shi Yunnan thought for a moment, and the owner of the voice automatically appeared in his mind.
“Lu Zhao’an?”
“It’s me. I took the liberty to contact you like this. The last time you left a phone number when you bought jade carvings from Yuanshi, I asked the clerk privately.” Lu Zhaoan explained the reason calmly.
Shi Yunnan had a good impression of this character, “Well, what’s the matter with Mr. Lu?”
Lu Zhaoan said straight to the point, “Is it convenient for Mr. Shi to meet in the past two days? I have cooperation in jade design and want to talk to you about it.”
Shi Yunnan was surprised when he heard the words, obviously not expecting that Lu Zhaoan would mention this.
He looked at the cars speeding by on the road, and remembered the situation where he was doing nothing now, and was thinking of finding something to divert his attention.
“You can now, where to meet?”
Lu Zhaoan didn’t expect that Shi Yunnan would agree so readily, and after a slight pause, he replied, “Mr. Shi will decide the location. Since I have something to ask for, then I’ll go to you.”
“good.”
…
Half an hour later, Shi Yunan sank into the soft sofa, quietly listening to the melodious tunes coming from the store.
After talking to Lu Zhaoan on the phone, he found a restaurant nearby that had good reviews online.
There was a welcome sound at the door.
Shi Yunnan looked up and saw Lu Zhaoan’s figure. The other party obviously saw him for the first time and walked straight over.
“Hello, Mr. Shi.”
“Sit down, what would you like to drink?” Shi Yunnan sat upright.
Lu Zhaoan glanced at the drink in front of him, and replied calmly, “Like you, lemon black tea, I’m driving.”
After the waiter on the side heard this, he immediately went down to prepare.
Shi Yunnan took a sip of black tea, “Mr. Lu, how did you know I would design it?”
Lu Zhaoan said, “It’s simple to say, the jade beads on the shell of Lou’s new product are provided by our Yuan’s.”
Hearing this coincidence, Shi Yunnan couldn’t help but sigh.
As the current core person in charge of Yuan’s, Lu Zhaoan naturally knew the popularity of Lou’s new product designs in the market, and this series of designs were all in the national style he liked, so he took the initiative to ask Lou’s about the design of this series of products. division.
Then, accidentally got the name ‘Shi Yunnan’.
Not only that, he also learned one thing from Mrs. Lou’s supplement: Shi Yunnan seems to have a lot of research on jewelry and should have been engaged in related designs before.
After going back and forth, Lu Zhaoan became more and more determined to contact Shi Yunnan.
While talking, the waiter brought the drink up.
After Shi Yunan waited for the other party to leave, he asked, “What does the jade design that Mr. Lu mentioned on the phone just now mean?”
Lu Zhaoan really needed cooperation and answered Shi Yunnan’s question seriously.
“To be honest, the Yuan family relied on jade carving as the main business from the very beginning. If it goes up for 40 to 50 years, when the jade carving market is hot, the Yuan family can be regarded as one of the best signs in the country…”
But in the past ten years, the road to the jade carving market has become narrower and narrower.
Batches of mechanical and streamlined processing replaced manual meticulous crafting. The quality of goods in the market is uneven, which indirectly affects sales.
Although good artificial jade carvings can still be sold at high prices, the cost and energy are also proportional, and sometimes it really deserves a sentence——
It’s rare to open once in three years.
Because the jade carving craftsmanship cannot support themselves, the jade carving masters of the Yuan family can walk and change their careers, and there are very few people in the new generation who can learn this craft in meditation.
During the two years that Lu Zhaoan managed the Yuan family for his own master, he clearly felt the spatial limitations of the jade carving business. It is more like an art within the circle than a popular pursuit.
Yuan’s sales in the jade carving industry have been declining year by year, and it can still be sustained by relying on the sale of rough stones.
Shi Yunnan probably understood Lu Zhaoan’s thoughts, “Mr. Lu means to use jade jewelry as a new way?”
“Yes.”
The ancestors of the Yuan clan have set a rule: do a good job, and jade carving is the foundation of their Yuan clan, and they cannot be fooled by others.
Therefore, Yuanshi has not developed the jade jewelry market on a large scale, and now the market is occupied by other companies.
Because of the heaviness of jade itself, most jewelry designs tend to give people a sense of ‘sophistication’, and the market itself has not yet been fully opened.
If Yuanshi wants to attract customers now, in addition to the common jade design, it has to rely on novel designs.
Shi Yunnan jumped out of this limitation in Lou’s design. Although it is not a complete jade design, it has the same effect.
“I want to find a group of designers to cooperate with. The designers can be a piece of design or a high-end auction design. All the rough stones and materials used in the design can be provided by Yuanshi.”
“In addition to the one-time payment of the design fee, the selling price can also be divided according to the contract.”
After Lu Zhaoan confirmed that he was going to do this, he immediately found his master Yuan Puguang to discuss it.
“Mr. Shi, I know this proposal is very abrupt, and the design is different from the jade design, but if you have an idea, you are welcome to cooperate with us at any time.”
Lu Zhaoan’s expression was calm and his words were sincere.
Shi Yunnan didn’t rush to answer, but remembered another thing——
Because Yuan Rui is the second male, Yuan’s follow-up trend is not bad, and he has indeed made a name for himself in jade design, making his own signboard and market.
But all of this is based on Xie Keyue’s proposal.
Xie Keyue proposed and invested in Yuanshi’s jade design field, so when Yuanshi made a lot of money in the jade jewelry industry, he naturally made a lot of money.
As for Yuan Rui, who was in charge of this matter, he naturally trusted this friend more.
Now, how did Lu Zhaoan open his mouth?
Seeing that Shi Yunan didn’t speak, Lu Zhaoan said, “Mr. Shi?”
“Mr. Lu didn’t know anything. I was engaged in jewelry design abroad.”
“It is said that diamonds and jades are not separated from each other. If I can apply the design skills I have learned to the design of jade in China, I will…”
Before he could finish speaking, the mobile phone on the table vibrated again, and his name was displayed—Luo Lingsheng.
Seeing this name, Shi Yunnan finally managed to concentrate his thoughts floating out again.
In Lu Zhaoan’s eyes, he thought it was inconvenient for him to answer the phone, “Mr. Shi, you are free, do you need me to avoid it first?”
“No need to.”
Shi Yunnan calmed down, hung up the phone and turned off the phone, “Let’s continue, I’m very interested in Mr. Lu’s proposal for cooperation.”
…
Luo’s house.
Luo Lingsheng frowned complicatedly when he saw the sound of the phone being hung up, dialed and then turned off.
Seeing all this, Uncle Qin couldn’t help but approached and reminded, “Patriarch, don’t be too anxious, Mr. Shi may be out of business and it’s inconvenient to answer the phone.”
Luo Lingsheng didn’t answer, and the complexities between his eyebrows were more obvious.
Yuan Meng was taking his simple luggage out. Qin Jian packed up the work, glanced at the time and stepped forward, “Patriarch, it’s time for us to go to the airport.”
“Can I change my signature?” Luo Lingsheng asked.
He had said the wrong thing in the training room before, causing Shi Yunnan to run out just like that, but now the other party seemed to be holding back his anger and didn’t answer the phone, he was worried.
“Change sign?”
Qin Jian glanced at Uncle Qin, the housekeeper for unknown reasons, and immediately picked up the phone to inquire at the latter’s silent gesture.
“The earliest shift is tomorrow at noon.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Rong, who was already ready to set off on the same road, walked back from the outside, “Ling Sheng, I just had a phone call with your brother-in-law, and the team said that we can arrange an inspection tomorrow night.”
“I’m afraid it’s inconvenient to have other patients make an appointment the day after tomorrow.”
As an elder, the housekeeper stepped forward to persuade him in a low voice, “Patriarch, you, Miss Luo Rong, Qin Jian and the others should go first.”
“If Shi Yunnan doesn’t come home after five o’clock in the afternoon, I will contact him and send someone to find him. You don’t have to worry about the young master, I am there.”
“Your leg injury is a big deal, try not to delay if you can.”
Luo Lingsheng didn’t refute, he just used WeChat to send two more sentences to Shi Yunnan, and answered helplessly in his heart, “Let’s go.”
…
Before seven o’clock in the evening, Shi Yunnan, who had calmed down, returned to Luo’s house. His documents and luggage were still in the room, and it was impossible for him to leave home in a hurry because of what happened in the training room in the afternoon.
“Uncle!”
The little goldfish who was eating pounced on him immediately, holding Shi Yunan’s hand and shaking excitedly, “Little uncle, there is fish egg custard today, shall we eat it separately?”
“Mr. Shi, are you back? Have you eaten yet? The owner of the house has something to do abroad temporarily.” The housekeeper stepped forward and said.
“I know, I saw the message he sent me.” Shi Yunnan replied indifferently.
It’s just that he was still stuck in his heart and didn’t want to reply.
Since the other party has Bai Yueguang in his heart, he shouldn’t post it like this, otherwise he will be humiliating himself in the end.
“Little uncle, are you hungry?” Little Goldfish asked happily, not knowing what happened in the afternoon.
“I’m not hungry, I’ve eaten outside.” Shi Yunan squatted down to look at him, “I’m a little tired today. I want to go back to my room to rest first. You eat tonight, okay?”
“Oh.”
The little goldfish looked at him and nodded obediently.
It wasn’t until Shi Yunnan went upstairs quickly that the little goldfish pouted the corners of his mouth in disappointment and whispered to the housekeeper, “Grandpa Qin, is my uncle unhappy?”
Uncle Qin also felt that Luo Lingsheng and Shi Yunnan’s reactions were not quite right today, but facing the child, he couldn’t say anything more, “No, your little uncle is just tired.”
“But he didn’t pinch my face today, and his speech was dull.” Little Goldfish’s perception has always been keen, “Even if he doesn’t like to eat his favorite fish egg custard, he must be unhappy.”
“Then you eat obediently first, and when he’s hungry, we’ll go to the kitchen to prepare it for him, okay?” The housekeeper took him back to the dining table.
“good.”
…
After Shi Yunnan returned to his room, he sat blankly at the desk, thinking about the way to go next.
It’s a pity that the cutting is still messy.
His reason told himself to keep a proper distance from Luo Lingsheng, and even to terminate the agreement directly, so as to stop the loss in time.
But emotionally, he couldn’t let it go.
In less than four months, he had regarded the Luo family as a short-lived home, the second home he could really find since his mother passed away.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was eight o’clock in the blink of an eye.
– Knock knock.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
The unlocked door was quietly opened, and the little goldfish looked in with a small bowl that was covered.
“Uncle, are you asleep? Can I come in?”
The soft and nuanced child’s voice makes people simply reluctant to refuse.
Shi Yunan hooked his lips subconsciously, “Come in, I haven’t slept yet.”
The little goldfish who had changed into cat pajamas ran in and held the small bowl in front of Shi Yunan, “Uncle, fish custard, all for you!”
“Grandpa Qin is already hot and won’t freeze his stomach.”
Shi Yunnan was so soft on the little goldfish’s behavior that he suppressed his emotions and patted his thigh with a smile, “Come up.”
The little goldfish crawled on his lap and sat, “Little uncle, you like fish egg custard most, so you won’t be sad after eating it.”
“Who told you that I’m sad?” Shi Yunan poked his little dimple, it felt good.
“I saw it myself.” The little goldfish replied.
He raised his head and asked, “little uncle, why are you unhappy? Because uncle is not at home? Grandpa Qin said he went to see his legs.”
“Ok, I know.”
Shi Yunnan didn’t want to bring up the topic of Luo Lingsheng again.
In order to live up to the child’s good intentions, he casually scooped a mouthful of egg custard into his mouth, but at the moment when the familiar taste filled his mouth, Shi Yunnan suddenly felt unstoppable sadness.
When he was a child, he thought he could eat the fish egg custard made by his mother for a long time, but it only stayed at the age of seven.
After entering Luo’s house, the first bite of fish custard he ate was arranged by Luo Lingsheng. Perhaps in a short while, he would not even be able to eat the taste of this bite.
The little goldfish stared at Shi Yunnan’s faintly red eyes, suddenly seemed to realize something, and wrapped his hands and feet around Shi Yunnan’s body, “Little uncle.”
The little goldfish rubbed his little head against Shi Yunan intimately, his soft hair swept the side of his neck itchy.
Shi Yunnan didn’t hide, “Huh? Why are you sticking to me so much?”
“I like my uncle very much.”
The little goldfish spoke in his ear suddenly, and the soft voice was full of seriousness. He paused, and did not forget to add the last sentence—
“And uncle, he likes you very much too!”
