Shang Shixu's dark eyes were full of coldness. What he was dissatisfied with was not Lin Jingmo, but himself for repeatedly showing mercy to her.
He also didn't understand why she would stop again and again when she was about to successfully kill Lin Jingmo. Was it her kindness to her mother or her change in attitude towards herself.
He lowered his eyelids, and when he raised his eyes again, he met Lin Jingmo's gaze and said coldly: "Who allowed you to go to the backyard?"
Lin Jingmo heard something different. She thought that if Shang Shixu knew that her mother was being taken care of, she would be happy. Who would have thought that what she would get in return would be furious.
While they were talking, four girls who came back from the backyard also entered the door.
Lin Jingmo understood that Shang Shixu was angry because of Shang's mother. Although she didn't understand why Shang Shixu was unwilling to accept her kindness, in the final analysis, she had indeed hurt their mother and son, so she lowered her eyes and said slowly
: "Before... I did make a mistake. Since I have done something wrong, I will never run away from it, but I will never do anything to hurt her again in the future."
Shang Shixu turned around and said disdainfully: "No matter in the past or in the future, you, Lin Jingmo, should not appear in front of my mother." After that, he pointed to the four girls who came back from the backyard and continued: "Your kindness.
, my mother is not happy, I will personally take care of her daily life. Please don't send anyone to the backyard to disturb her rest in the future."
"Disturbing..." Lin Jingmo looked up at Shang Shixu, whose eyes were full of determination, and said sadly: "Did I disturb her today? But I clearly..."
She is obviously wearing a veil... Isn't she not afraid of me...
Before she could say the next words, she looked at Shang Shixu's expression but could no longer speak.
He just looked at it coldly, without any expression, but Lin Jingmo felt the disgust in it
Shang Shixu didn't want to listen anymore, and turned to leave before she finished speaking.
Lin Jingmo couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she saw Mrs. Li kneeling on the ground picking up the scattered bird's nests. She got out of bed, didn't bother to put on her shoes and socks, and ran a few steps to catch up with Shang Shixu.
She frowned slightly, full of grievances, stretched out her hand to stop Shang Shixu, and said unwillingly: "I have forgotten all those things, and I don't want them to happen. Now that I am willing to change my ways, why can't you accept my kindness?" p>
Shang Shixu impatiently moved Lin Jingmo aside, who was blocking him, without saying a word. He just shook the hand that touched her and said lightly: "Because you don't understand yourself at all." After that, he left directly. Lin Jingmo's mind was filled with the image of him throwing away his hands when he left.
Does he... hate me so much?
Like a sudden thunderstorm, Lin Jingmo's clear and smart eyes were suddenly filled with haze. She stopped chasing him because she understood that getting closer to him would only lead to his disgust.
When she came back to her senses, she looked at Shang Shixu's back and suddenly shouted: "Okay, from now on, your affairs have nothing to do with me, and I will never appear in front of you and your mother again!"
The figure from behind didn’t stop, didn’t respond, didn’t even hesitate...
……
For several days, Lin Jingmo hid in the room in the main courtyard and never left. She did not sleep, but lazily propped her head up and looked at the birds outside the window. Occasionally she would wonder if Shang Shixu had returned from the Yamen at this moment. He
Whether she had eaten or not, late at night, she was wondering whether Shang Shixu was still processing official documents and whether she had not slept well yet...
The two people obviously live in the same house, but they have never met.
Lin Jingmo always thought that she was so close to Shang Shixu. If he had the intention, he would always see her. If he had no intention, it would be useless even if he saw her.
So as time went by, the number of times she thought about discussing time became less and less, and she even began to stop thinking about him.
Mother Li saw that she was always looking weak, so she brought up the old story again and mentioned that she wanted to go to the temple to ask for a fortune. She couldn't resist, so she had to let Mother Li pull her into the carriage to the temple.
As the horse-drawn carriage drove through the bustling market, Lin Jingmo casually opened the curtain on the car and looked outside. She couldn't help but recall the scene when she and Shang Shixu were on the street that day.
It's just that things have changed at this moment, and Shang Shixu will never see her again, and even if he says a word more, I'm afraid he won't. Thinking of this, Lin Jingmo lowered her head, and her long eyelashes seemed to cover her loss, but she still couldn't.
I couldn't help but sigh from my heart: "Alas..."
Just as she was about to put down the curtain, Mother Li pointed outside and said, "Isn't that person my uncle..."
When Lin Jingmo heard that it was Shang Shixu, he quickly raised his eyes and looked out the window. The man dressed in cool clothes and chatting and laughing among the crowd was not his husband.
I haven’t seen him for many days, but Shang Shixuan is still as handsome and tall as before.
A trace of relief flashed across Lin Jingmo's face. He looked at his mother Li who was staring at her with a silly smile, then quickly put away her smile and quickly lowered the curtain.
Mother Li on the side asked tentatively: "Forget it...my uncle is Xiu Mu today, what is he doing on the street?"
Lin Jingmo concealed his emotions, pretending to be indifferent and said: "Do my business!"
Mother Li continued: "Are you going to meet a close friend?"
Lin Jingmo's eyes wandered: "Do what I want!"
Mother Li asked again: "Or go visit your colleagues?"
Li Jingmo raised his head: "Do my job!"
Mother Li couldn't help but laugh when she saw her arrogant look, and then said: "The street is so lively. Isn't my uncle here to meet a sweetheart?"
Lin Jingmo couldn't help but cast his eyes across the curtain, frowned slightly and said: "We are in love?!"
After saying that, he opened the curtain again and stretched out his head to look around. They were all restaurants, shops and inns. They were very lively. Looking further ahead, there was an endless stream of people coming and going, perfect for couples to have a tryst!
She put down the curtain angrily and couldn't help but tell her husband: "Damn Shang Shixuan, it's hard to take a day off..." She paused for a moment and then said: "Should we really go to meet the prime minister?"
Then he comforted himself and said: "With his temper, he can't even smile easily. Apart from me... who else would take him seriously?"
But Li's mother added more fuel to the fire: "What are you talking about? My uncle is also the minister of household affairs, and he has a good appearance..."
"Stop!" Before Mother Li could finish speaking, she stood up and shouted to the driver outside.
Mother Li wanted to stop her, but she pushed her away. She jumped off the carriage and looked in the direction where she just saw Shang Shixu.
Mother Li poked her head out of the car: "Second girl, get in the car quickly. Where are you going!"
Lin Jingmo said to her: "I just remembered that I have to buy some things, so I won't accompany you to the temple today."
Mother Li asked: "What do you want to buy, second girl? Mother Li will go with you."
Lin Jingmo, however, was in a hurry and walked in the direction of Shang Shixu. As he walked, he said casually: "I've run out of rouge and gouache at home. I'm going to buy some. Mother Li doesn't need to accompany me. Please pray for me to be safe."
Yes." After saying that, he ran away without looking back.
Mother Li looked at her anxious back, shook her head and said with a smile: "Why don't you ask for a peace sign? You should ask for a marriage sign."
