The winding corridors in the castle are like a maze with no exit.
The splendid corridor wall was like a long work of art, so beautiful that it seemed unreal. Man Wen stepped on the light-reflecting ground and walked forward.
She saw Li Juexi at the arc balcony at the end corner.
Under the scorching sun, Li Juexi was only wearing a white shirt, leaning his legs against the balcony, looking outside not knowing what to think.
His back was slightly bent, holding a cigarette between his two fingers, a red light flashing and extinguishing, and the smoke slowly exhaled from his lips...[
His hair was messy and messy in the wind.
Manwen watched him put the cigarette to his mouth again and again. She felt as if something was blocking her heart, feeling stuffy and painful...
Stepping forward softly, Manwen hugged his waist from behind, pressed her face against his back, and remained silent without making a sound.
The tip of my nose smelled smoke, which was a bit pungent.
Li Juexi didn't look back and put out the cigarette casually.
"You deserve it for following me." Li Juexi's deep, string-like voice reached her ears.
Manwen's nose suddenly became sore. It was obviously a very annoying sentence, but she could hear Ke Naihe's sadness...
She was born in the Li family, grew up in the Li family, and enjoyed all the glory and wealth, but in the end, she was still treated as a bird that couldn't grow wings by her father, and her every move was controlled...
"I don't care."
After a long time, Manwen finally opened his mouth and held his hand a little tighter.
"..."
She doesn't care, he cares.
He is a man, but he cannot even protect his wife and children. He either strangles his unborn child or prays that he will not give birth to a son...
Quite cowardly.
"I will let me prepare the medicine secretly so as not to alert my father." The moment she saw the pregnancy test stick, Manwen admitted that she was really panicked, but looking at him like this, she calmed down.
She has already given birth to a daughter, and if she gets pregnant again, Mr. Li will definitely let her give birth.
Mr. Li wants a grandson to inherit the huge Li family.
Li Juexi didn't speak. He didn't know if he agreed to her plan by default. He let her hold him and looked up at the stacked trees in the distance...
Suddenly, his big palms covered the slender hands on his waist.[
"sorry."
There were three words in total, and he breathed them out for as long as a century...
Manwen blinked his eyes, feeling very sore.
*************************
Li Juexi has changed a bit. His eyebrows are no longer as confident and arrogant as before. He has begun to love tobacco and alcohol. Every time he goes out to discuss business, he is the one who drinks the most.
Manwen was often called to various entertainment venues by his assistant. Every time she went, he would sit in a corner, staring blankly at the ground, with no one around him.
That way, like an insecure child, he just adapts.
She took him back to the manor time and time again, and he fell asleep holding her in his arms.
Several times they were discovered by Mr. Li, and both of them were severely scolded. Although Li Juexi was drunk, he still pulled her behind him and stood unsteadily in front of her.
She watched as his hand clenched tighter and tighter amidst Li Lao's angry scolding, with blue veins protruding, as if they might explode at any time...
Every time, she held his hand, and Li Juexi calmed down.
"Bang"
Another drunken night, there was a loud noise of something falling to the ground in the bathroom, and Manwen hurriedly went to the door.
I saw Li Juexi sitting in the corner of the bathroom, his handsome face unchanged, only the confusion in his eyes betrayed his drunkenness. He reached out to pull the tie, and pulled it off several times...
