The Cherished Old Time - C214

Shang Hui had been busy the whole day just for the sake of Yu Meng. Ever since Yu Meng left for the wedding, the internet was abuzz with comments about this incident. With such a huge incident, it would be hard for Yu Meng to escape from being a main character.

Chen Sister-in-Law brought out a bowl of porridge from the kitchen and handed it over to Shang Hui.

In the dark room, the heavy curtains were tightly wrapped around the door and windows without any lights on. The whole room seemed to be immersed in darkness, heavy and depressing.

A woman’s frail body could only rely on herself to warm it up.

Shang Hui sighed, walked to Yu Meng’s side and leaned over to pull the blanket over her. Seeing that she was sleeping too close to the bed, he wanted to carry her to the middle of the bed.

But as soon as she did, she rubbed her eyes and woke up.

Yu Meng didn’t look like she was in a good mood. The depressing atmosphere in the room seemed to match her mood.

Yu Meng sat up on the luxurious dark red bed with her arms crossed. Her face was pale and she seemed to be in low spirits.

“You must be hungry.” Shang Hui raised his hand and helped place the scattered hair on Yu Meng’s forehead behind her ears. Looking at her, his heart ached.

“I’ll get you something to eat.”

Yu Meng did not have any appetite, but she did not stop Shang Hui. She was too tired, even after sleeping for so long, she did not even have the strength to tell Shang Hui not to worry.

She leaned on the headboard, with the pillow that Shang Hui had prepared for her behind her back.

Shang Hui carried a bowl of congee and some small dishes and walked into the house and placed them on the bed, feeding them one by one to Yu Meng.

After eating a few mouthfuls, Yu Meng bent over and puked again.

For days. It seemed like the depression from before was about to recur. Ever since she was taken away from the wedding, she did not speak, neither did she laugh nor cry. She ate as she ate, ate as she ate medicine, like a zombie.

“I went to explain things to your father personally. He didn’t say anything, but he was still worried about you.”

Hearing Shang Hui’s words, Yu Meng finally raised her head and looked at him after a long time.

“Thank you.” Yu Meng’s voice was hoarse.

At that time, Yu Meng had asked Shang Hui to steal her from her when she was preparing to go to the wedding venue, then take her away so Shen Nian could make up for it.

All of this was because of what Shen Nian had told her that day.

Shen Nian had said that if Yu Meng did not give Tan Yubai up, then Shen Nian would definitely take her life for the spear that Tan Yubai owed her.

Shen Nian gave Yu Meng a choice. She wanted her husband to die or should she leave him alone?

Yu Meng had no choice but to leave.

However, even after going through so much danger, she was still unable to spend her life with someone she deeply loved. Yu Meng had suddenly lost all hope of living. She didn’t understand why people lived and worked so hard, but working hard didn’t mean she would get what she wanted.

Shang Hui held up Yu Meng’s hands. Her hands were cold and icy, without any trace of warmth.

“Do you want to watch TV?”

Yu Meng nodded.

The room was too cold for the two of them to warm up.

The sound of the television made the atmosphere in the room softer, but he never thought that the moment he turned on the television, it would be the reporters blocking the entrance of the hospital, blocking Tan Yubai. They wanted to ask him about the entire process of the bride being swapped with him on the day of the wedding.

After so many days of not seeing him, Tan Yubai was extremely haggard, his face was pale white, his lips were green, and being surrounded by so many people, he looked as though he did not have the strength to struggle free.

With just a glance, Yu Meng’s tears began to fall.

She could imagine how he felt because she had put him in such a situation. She could also imagine how he had felt at that time, probably because he had been viciously kicked, causing his internal organs to move in place from the pain.

Shang Hui looked at Yu Meng, his heart also in pain. Having accompanied Yu Meng for so many days, he couldn’t think of any way to make her feel good about herself. This man who had once looked down on everything was now looking at the woman beside him, his eyes filled with tears.

Shang Hui got up and walked past Yu Meng. He turned off the television, and when he turned around to look at Yu Meng, her tears continued to flow. She turned on or off the television, as if it didn’t mean anything to Yu Meng.

She just sat there, with her heart elsewhere.

“Creak ~ ~”

It was the sound of the bedroom door opening. Only then did Yu Meng raise her head to look over, causing Shang Hui to open the door and stand at the entrance. His chestnut hair hung down, and he did not look any better than Yu Meng. His entire body was filled with dejection and despondency.

she whispered.

“Shang Hui.”

Shang Hui raised his head, and smiled faintly as he pursed his lips.

“Rest well.” His voice was soft and warm, but that smile added too many complex and heavy emotions.

Shang Hui left Yu Meng and the villa because he wanted to find someone.

Tan Yubai.

Tan Yubai was still in the hospital and had been accompanying him there for the past few days. With much difficulty, Shen Nian managed to recover his life from the line of life and death, and as a result, he was able to move from the Intensive Care Unit to the ordinary ward.

When Shang Hui found Tan Yubai, he was standing in the hospital’s smoking room.

“Why did you come?” When Tan Yubai saw Shang Hui, he was somewhat shocked. Their four eyes met, and amidst the smoke, he saw some emotions in his eyes.

They were all intelligent people, so they naturally could tell at a glance.

Although Yu Zheng did not reveal Yu Meng’s whereabouts these past few days, Tan Yubai could guess. The only person who she could help with was probably Shang Hui.

Now that Shang Hui had come to find him on his own accord, Tan Yubai was even more certain that he had Yu Meng with him.

“Is she all right?” Tan Yubai took in a deep breath of the cigarette, and crushed the scattered flames.

His voice was hoarse and filled with experience.

“Not good.” Shang Hui leaned on the door. He didn’t seem to like the pungent smell of the smoking room, even he himself was used to smoking.

“She’s not good.” Shang Hui answered truthfully.

With those words, Tan Yubai felt as if his heart was being cut by knives.

Tan Yubai took a deep breath, and seemed to have used all his strength to tell Shang Hui.

“Take good care of her.”

“Are you a man?” Shang Hui could not tolerate it anymore. Looking at Tan Yubai’s messy appearance, the anger in his heart burned hotter.

The two of them tortured each other. What could not be resolved?

Tan Yubai did not bother with him. He walked past Shang Hui and prepared to leave.

“To see her.” Shang Hui pulled Tan Yubai’s arm and said softly: “She needs you, you …” After saying that, he let out a heavy sigh, “You need her too.”

Tan Yubai was somewhat shaken, but in the end, he still helplessly shook his head.

“If you still want her to live, go see her.” Shang Hui was a little furious, he frowned: “Meeting once, it’s not like anything happened, I only met once.”

Tan Yubai clenched his fists.

God knows how much he longed to see her now.

However…

“She’s at my house. Here’s the key.” Shang Hui took out a key from his pocket and stuffed it into Tan Yubai’s hands.

“Leave this to me.”

After Shang Hui finished speaking, he went around Tan Yubai and took a step first, but before he took two steps, he suddenly stopped.

“Which room is Shen Nian in?”

“207”

Shang Hui received his answer and walked away with big steps.

Tan Yubai’s heart was only filled with a lingering dream, but he did not have any other thoughts.

Yu Meng was alone in her room. In such a gloomy and depressing environment, she had no idea how many days had passed.

She slept under the blanket, saying that she was asleep, but in reality, she was just in a daze with her eyes closed.

She did not let her thoughts run wild.

“Creak ~ ~”

She suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. Thinking that it was Shang Hui, she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, ignoring him.

The sound of footsteps was very soft, and not long later, Yu Meng felt the side of the bed collapse, and the blanket that was covering her head was lifted.

Yu Meng did not open her eyes as she curled up into a ball. In her dazed state, she felt that the aura of the man beside her was very familiar.

Another pair of soft hands suddenly touched his face.

Yu Meng could feel the heat on her cheeks.

“Little Meng.”

A familiar voice rang out, causing Yu Meng’s heart to clench.

Yu Meng opened her eyes in a daze. The familiar image that she had experienced countless times in her dreams appeared before her eyes.

“You …”

Yu Meng’s voice was hoarse to the extreme. These past few days, she had dreamt of him countless times, and this time, it was hard to tell if it was a dream or reality.

Yu Meng’s eyes reddened. She sat up from the bed and hugged Tan Yubai’s waist, burying her head in his chest.

Yu Meng thought this was a dream. Since it was, of course, a dream, she had to tell him about all her grievances and thoughts.

“Big White, I missed you so much.”

“I think you’re going crazy.”

“I really want to marry you.”

“I want you to kiss me at the wedding hall. I want you to hug me. I want you to …”

Yu Meng had said a lot of things, even in her dreams, but repeating them over and over was never enough.

Missing is endless, just like love, always feel not enough, never end.

If you didn’t say what was at the end of love, you could only separate.

After a long while, when Yu Meng was still breathing normally in her embrace, she suddenly heard a low and hoarse voice from above her head.

“Me too.”

It was just three short words, but it seemed to pierce through the clouds like a stone, catching everyone off guard.

Yu Meng raised her head and looked into those dark, warm eyes. Instantly, her eyes turned red.

“You …”

Her heart was trembling crazily, her hands and her entire body were trembling.

It was excitement, but also fear.

She was afraid that this dream was too real, that she would mistake it for reality.

“Is that you?”

Yu Meng asked as she knocked on Tan Yubai’s chest. He felt pain in his heart because he was unable to say a word, but the self-blame and pain in his heart eventually turned into a kiss, landing on the corner of Yu Meng’s mouth, and he drew the word “love”.

This love weighed as much as a thousand gold, smashing into Yu Meng’s heart, eternal.
