Lu Yanting looked at the empty bedside table and felt that something was missing.
He thought for a while before he remembered that the photo was missing.
A photo of him and Jiang Chaoxi.
The last time he came back, he specifically looked at the photo taken when he was blind.
It was also the only photo he had left during his blindness.
"Where are the photos?" Lu Yanting asked.
Jiang Chaoxi replied nonchalantly: "Burned."
"Why burn it?" Lu Yanting's eyes became sharp. Even if he wanted to burn the photos, he should do it.
"If you don't want it anymore, just burn it." Jiang Chaoxi thought for a while, then sat up and walked outside.
"Where are you going?" Lu Yanting asked with a frown.
"I'm going to sleep in the guest room, and I'll give you the master bedroom."
After Jiang Chaoxi finished speaking, he left the master bedroom and closed the door.
Then, there was a sound of closing the door from the guest bedroom.
Lu Yanting was lying on the bed in the master bedroom, his nose filled with the smell of Jiang Chaoxi.
Subconsciously, he had become accustomed to her presence.
…
The next day.
Jiang Chaoxi and Lu Yanting went to the hospital to visit Zhou Shulan.
Zhou Shulan was in good spirits, but the doctor did not allow her to move around, so she could only sit on the bed and chat with Jiang Chaoxi.
Lu Yanting was sitting on the sofa, playing with his cell phone.
The two sat down and chatted for a while.
Bai Xuening came, followed by the driver, carrying large and small bags.
"Aunt Lan, I heard that you were hospitalized. I didn't sleep well last night. I rushed over to see you as soon as I got up this morning."
Bai Xuening has no makeup and has deep dark circles under her eyes.
Looking at Zhou Shulan, she looked like she was about to cry.
In fact, the dark circles under her eyes were not caused by worry that Zhou Shulan had not slept well, but because Lu Yanting returned to his and Jiang Chaoxi's wedding room last night and stayed with Jiang Chaoxi, and she was too anxious to sleep.
Zhou Shulan used to like Bai Xuening very much. He has a good family background, is good-looking, polite, and can act coquettishly, which makes her very happy.
But now, Zhou Shulan doesn't like Bai Xuening when she sees her.
Zhou Shulan said with a straight face: "I'm fine. If you want me to live longer, don't appear in front of me, let alone pester Ating. He has a family and his wife is still here."
Zhou Shulan said and held Jiang Chaoxi's hand.
In her mind, she only has Jiang Chaoxi as her daughter-in-law.
Bai Xuening is not worthy!
Zhou Shulan's rebuke made Bai Xuening's eyes turn red.
She choked and said: "Aunt Lan, I'm just worried about you. You must get better soon. I... will leave now. I'm sorry..."
After saying that, he covered his face, turned around and walked out.
As Jiang Chaoxi expected, Lu Yanting chased him out.
Zhou Shulan shouted: "A Ting, you are not allowed to go!"
He also turned a deaf ear.
Zhou Shulan gritted her teeth in anger: "This bastard, does he have me as his mother and you as his wife in his heart? I'm so angry!"
"Mom, don't be angry, your health is important." Jiang Chaoxi patted Zhou Shulan on the back.
Zhou Shulan grabbed Jiang Chaoxi's arm and said excitedly: "Xibao, you must promise mom not to divorce Ating, otherwise I will die in peace."
"Mom, don't say that, you will live a long life!"
"Xi Bao, promise mom!"
Jiang Chaoxi was afraid that Zhou Shulan would be too excited and cause the hemangioma to rupture, so he could only compromise: "Okay, I promise you not to divorce Lu Yanting."
"Our Xibao is still the best behaved." Zhou Shulan smiled with satisfaction, and her mood gradually became calmer.
Lu Yanting chased him to the elevator entrance and grabbed Bai Xuening's arm.
Bai Xuening cried so hard that her face was filled with tears: "Brother Ting, I shouldn't have come. I was too worried about Aunt Lan. I'm sorry for making my aunt angry... My aunt used to like me very much... I don't know why she... is like this now."
Hate me...I'm sorry Brother Ting...I won't come anymore..."
Bai Xuening cried until the pear blossoms were wet with rain.
Lu Yanting couldn't bear it and gave her a tissue: "Stop crying, I'll take you back."
"Brother Ting, shouldn't I come back? Even Aunt Lan hates me. Everyone has changed, including you..."
Bai Xuening looked at Lu Yanting dreamily.
Although he was still very kind to her, she could feel that he was keeping his distance.
He won't hug her like he used to.
Not even looking at her smiling.
Even when he meets her, he always looks preoccupied. He is there but his mind is not.
Has he already fallen in love with Jiang Chaoxi?
Lu Yanting knew that he had indeed changed.
In the past three years, when he listened to Jiang Chaoxi's voice, Bai Xuening's appearance was always in his mind.
But now, Jiang Chaoxi's face became clearer and clearer in his mind, while Bai Xuening's face became blurry.
"I'll take you back."
Lu Yanting had no reassurance for Bai Xuening.
His indifference had already let Bai Xuening know that her weight in his heart was getting lighter and lighter.
Get in Lu Yanting's car.
Bai Xuening took out the lipstick and wiped a little on her lips.
When getting out of the car, Bai Xuening covered her head and said delicately: "Brother Ting, I'm a little dizzy. Can you carry me up?"
Lu Yanting knew that Bai Xuening was acting coquettishly. He used to like her, but now, he just wants to retreat.
"Xue Ning, I am a married man now. If I hug you and it will harm your reputation, I will ask your maid to come down and help you up."
"No need, Brother Ting, I... can go by myself..."
Bai Xuening covered her forehead and got out of the car with difficulty.
She was swaying on her high heels, and suddenly her body went limp and she fell down.
"Xue Ning!"
Lu Yanting had been paying attention to her, and when he saw her falling to the ground, he rushed forward and picked her up without having time to think about anything.
"Xue Ning, wake up... wake up..."
He carried Bai Xuening and strode towards the Bai family's villa.
After entering the villa, he put Bai Xuening on the sofa and shouted to the servant: "Call the doctor quickly, your young lady has fainted."
The doctor arrived twenty minutes later and examined Bai Xuening.
She fainted due to agitation and anemia. She just needed to have a good rest and increase her nutrition. She didn't need to take medicine.
…
In the evening, Lu Yanting returned to the hospital.
As soon as he walked into the ward, Jiang Chaoshi smelled the perfume on his body, which belonged to Bai Xuening.
She also saw obvious lipstick marks on Lu Yanting's white shirt.
Jiang Chaoxi sneered in his heart.
His mother was lying in the hospital, and he was still interested in going out with his mistress to have fun, what a scumbag!
Zhou Shulan became angry when she saw Lu Yanting.
He glared at him: "Why are you coming back to accompany Bai Xuening? Bai Xuening needs your company, I don't need your company. I have Xibao, which is enough. I have raised a useless son. Fortunately, my daughter-in-law is considerate.
.”
Lu Yanting said nothing and sat down next to the sofa.
Bai Xuening was emotionally unstable and kept crying. He was afraid that she would do something stupid, so he could only stay with her until she fell asleep and he was able to escape.
The more silent he was, the angrier Zhou Shulan became.
"What do you mean by not talking? If Bai Xuening comes again, you will kick her out. I don't want to see her, and she doesn't want to be my daughter-in-law. I only recognize Xibao as my daughter-in-law. If you dare to divorce Xibao,
