409. Chapter 409 The Dowry Left for Xia Ye (1)
After saying these words, Xi Mushan suddenly took a deep breath, looked at Xi Xiaye with apologetic and sad eyes, and sighed, "I am sorry for you and your mother, I owe you so much."
Xi Mushan remembered what Mu Yuchen had said to him before——
'Actually, I know, father, that you are afraid of losing and that your mother will reject you, so you don't dare...'
‘Xia Ye and I will always regard you as our father. No matter it is you or mother, you can see us as long as you turn your head. ’
'Father, I hope you can make up for the fatherly love you have missed for more than twenty years to her...'
There was a sour feeling in his heart. The heart that had been wandering for decades seemed to have finally found a stopping point in an instant. He turned his gaze and looked at Mu Yuchen beside Xi Xiaye.
At this moment, Mu Yuchen, who was standing under the umbrella, smiled and nodded at him, his modest and calm eyes full of encouragement and gentleness...
"Okay, we have all worked hard, and now it's up to you."
Xi Xiaye suddenly smiled, plucked the white flowers off her chest, and placed them in front of Xi Jiyang's tombstone. Then she stood up and said to Mu Yuchen, "Let's go back."
Mu Yuchen nodded, glanced at Xi Mushan, saw Xi Mushan nodded, and then hugged Xi Xiaye and walked downstairs.
"I hope this piece of pure land can allow grandpa's soul to rest in peace and forget the right and wrong of the past."
When walking down the last step, Xi Xiaye suddenly stopped, turned around, took one last look at the large tombstones in front of her, and said in a low voice, her eyes uncontrollably filled with a little moisture.
"Okay, let the past pass. They rest here, and our lives have to go on. You have been crying too much lately..."
His scolding tone sounded very gentle, without the slightest hint of blame.
Xi Xiaye sniffed, nodded, took a deep breath, and smiled with tears in her eyes, "It will be fine after today..."
"Well, okay, let's go home early, take a shower, and have a good rest. You've been very tired from the past few days. I'll cook you a sumptuous dinner tonight."
"Candlelight dinner?"
"There are no candles in the house!"
…
At this moment, the couple was talking to each other, and when they came to the car, they quickly got in the car.
However, they didn't know that just as their car left, the car behind Shen Zhai slowly stopped in the parking space where they had just parked.
"Miss, we've arrived at Xishan Cemetery. Please be careful. I'll help you get out of the car!"
As soon as the car stopped, Wu Ma opened the car door and carefully helped Shen Wenna get out of the car.
"Miss, this is the little daisy you want."
Just as he stood firm on the ground, Lan Zilang also handed a beautiful bouquet of daisies to Shen Wenna's hand.
"Okay, thank you! Help me up."
Shen Wenna said calmly, holding the bouquet in one hand.
"Okay, miss, please be careful and slow down, there are steps ahead..."
After a lot of effort, Shen Wenna finally came to Xi Jiyang's tombstone under the guidance of Lan Zilang and Wu's mother. However, the greetings between Lan Zilang and Wu's mother made her whole body tense subconsciously——
"Hello, uncle!"
"Why are you still here?"
Wu Ma and Lan Zilang, as well as Xi Xiaye and Mu Yuchen, have all explained. They are also very aware of the situation between Xi Mushan and Shen Wenna, so when Xi Xiaye and Mu Yuchen said that they would reunite Shen Wenna and Xi Mu Naturally, they also showed their support when they went to the mountains.
Shen Wenna's forbearance, persistence, and hard work over the years have been seen by everyone. Such a stubborn woman also makes everyone feel sad. If her happiness must be provided by Xi Mushan, then why don't they talk to Miss Xia Ye? Will they work together to help this pair of hard-luck mandarin ducks?
"Hello!"
Soon, Xi Mushan's deep voice came over. His eyes had been locked on Shen Wenna for a long time. When Shen Wenna was halfway up the stairs, he heard her voice...
"Wen Na... I thought you wouldn't come..."
Seeing that Shen Wenna had difficulty moving, Xi Mushan stepped forward to take the bouquet that she was about to put in front of the tombstone, gently placed it in front of Xi Jiyang's tombstone, and then supported Shen Wenna.
Shen Wenna struggled subconsciously, but Xi Mushan held on tighter and tighter, for fear that she would escape.
"open……"
"Wen Na..."
Xi Mushan shouted softly, but he let her go in a daze. It was not easy to reach this point. He didn't want to make her even more angry and disgusted.
Shen Wenna silently grasped the cane in her hand, her empty eyes facing Xi Jiyang's tombstone, but her elegant face was extremely complicated.
"Dad asked me to say sorry to you on his behalf..."
Xi Mushan's low and sad voice came. Hearing the melancholy words in Shen Wenna's ears also made Shen Wenna slightly startled, but a self-deprecating smile flashed across her face——
"What's the use of saying these three words? Can it make everything happen again?"
Shen Wenna's light voice floated in the air like a gust of wind, "Many times, many grievances are just like this. When that person leaves, these grievances are buried underground with him. I don't want to say anything more about the past. You No need to mention it.”
"I also know about you quitting. It's not easy to get to this point. How can you just quit?"
Shen Wenna asked lightly.
Xi Mushan lowered his eyes sadly, "Don't worry, Dad, and I don't want to be in officialdom. I just want to stay in University A and teach like we said at the beginning... There is nothing wrong with this. In the remaining time, I I just want to worry about you, Wen Na..."
Shen Wenna listened, motionless. After a long time, a faint sparkle appeared in her empty eyes. She took a breath, suddenly turned around silently, and thought about leaving.
"Nana..."
Xi Mushan suddenly stopped her.
"I divorced Yue Lingsi..."
As Shen Wenna listened, her slender back paused slightly.
"Are you still willing to accept me with nothing like you did before?"
Xi Mushan asked in a low voice.
Shen Wenna paused for a while, but finally did not answer. She let Wu Ma and Lan Zilang support her and walked forward...
However, just after taking a few steps slowly, Shen Wenna suddenly felt a gust of cool wind blowing behind her. Before she could react, she was already picked up by Xi Mushan...
"It's easier if I carry you down. Even if you hate me, you have to take care of yourself."
Xi Mushan dropped this sentence, directly blocked Shen Wenna's words, and strode down the mountain with rapid strides.
