The eldest daughter is committing suicide, and the marriage partner comes to redeem her
Chapter 304 Shen Li: Two Years of Separation
Perhaps God heard Li Yanzhou's urgency and did not want him to steal happiness easily.
The day when Jiang Ruoli came to Hong Kong to play with Shen Zhiyan was a moment that Li Yanzhou did not want to recall. On that day, Shen Zhiyan was kidnapped and taken to the wilderness, and she also learned something from Li Er.
After that, the relationship between her and Li Yanzhou hit rock bottom.
In order not to lose Shen Zhiyan, Li Yanzhou did something unexpected - imprisoning her. During that period, the security of Haiyue Bay was so strict that not even a mosquito could fly out.
But later, Li Yanzhou felt heartbroken, and finally, he let Shen Zhiyan go.
This year, Li Yanzhou lost the woman he loved most.
***
During the days of separation, Li Yanzhou did not have a good time. He tried to fill his life with work. At some exaggerated times, even Pei Zigui was worried that he would die suddenly in the office.
But in the end he found that this was of no use at all.
He was thinking about Shen Zhiyan all the time, wondering whether she was living well in a foreign country, and whether she would occasionally take some time to think about him.
But Li Yanzhou knew that Shen Zhiyan's personality made it difficult for them to go back to the way they were before unless he figured it out. The only thing he could do was to hurry up and find out the truth of the past.
But Li Yanzhou couldn't bear to let Shen Zhiyan, a girl, live abroad, so he not only secretly arranged a place for her to live, but also sent Judy to protect her.
Of course, all this is based on the premise that Shen Zhiyan doesn't know.
Judy always blamed herself for the kidnapping that day, and even attributed her failure to the breakup between Li Yanzhou and Shen Zhiyan.
Faced with her guilt and acceptance of punishment, Li Yanzhou just looked at the white camellia in the garden calmly, with no emotion visible.
"Even if all this hadn't happened, the things I kept from her would have become the fuse of this relationship one day. Reiji just set it off in advance.
Go to Paris and help me protect her. If there is any movement, report it directly to me without going through Zhou Zhu. "
Judy felt like there was a huge rock blocking her heart and she couldn't describe the feeling.
**
On the anniversary of the death of Shen's father and mother, Shen Zhiyan returned to China, but she had dinner in Jiangcheng and hurried back to France. The time she stayed was not even as long as the flight time.
It can be seen that she doesn't seem to want to stay in Jiangcheng.
No one knew that Li Yanzhou also flew to France that night.
His seat was in the last row of the economy class.
Li Yanzhou had never been on such a crowded plane in his life. The narrow space forced his long legs to curl up, making it difficult for blood to circulate.
For fear of being discovered by Shen Zhiyan, he didn't dare to move around casually, so he sat down for the entire flight and felt a sore back.
The woman looked very tired, and her little head drooped shortly after takeoff.
Li Yanzhou frowned when he saw this scene. He resisted the urge to rush forward and throw the person into the first-class cabin, and pressed the service bell above his head.
"Hello sir, what do you need?"
"Get her a blanket, and a cushion and headrest."
The stewardess glanced at the man in the seat and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, sir, we have run out of blankets and headrests at the moment."
Economy class and first class are not the same.
He glanced at Shen Zhiyan's little head, which was tilted slightly. If she slept till she fell to the ground, she would definitely catch a cold, and she would also have to see a doctor for her neck.
When the man pursed his lips and said nothing, his expression was particularly gloomy and intimidating. The stewardess standing next to him thought for a moment that she was serving first-class passengers and was a little afraid to speak.
"Otherwise..." She wanted to say that she would think of another way.
"I have another first-class ticket. Bring it to her. Also, give her a cup of hot water."
The flight attendant was stunned. Is there such a thing?
"Sir, can I come back after I check this?"
Li Yanzhou didn't say anything, but nodded in agreement, with a strong sense of alienation.
After repeated confirmation, the flight attendant learned that the man sitting in the last row of the economy class actually had a ticket in the first class, and he actually had the same name as the man from the Li Group.
The flight attendant suddenly felt as if she had discovered some incredible secret.
It was already the next day when the plane landed at Frankfurt Airport. Shen Zhiyan, who had gotten enough sleep, looked much better. However, the person who followed quietly behind him had dark circles under his eyes that were almost falling to the ground.
It was not until Shen Zhiyan returned to the apartment in the car he had secretly arranged and waited downstairs for the light to light up and go out that Li Yanzhou put out the cigarette in his hand and got into the black car that had been waiting nearby all night.
**
Long-haul flights are very physically demanding, and by the time Shen Zhiyan had caught up on some sleep, it was already the evening of the next day. Facing the sunset, she went to a nearby small supermarket to buy some ingredients to cook at home.
I didn't even notice that on the street below the apartment building, a black car was parked quietly under a tree, where it had been all night.
The supermarket was run by a Chinese couple who had taken good care of her over the past year and had a good relationship with her. After paying the bill, the boss's daughter ran out and said to Shen Zhiyan, "Sister, drink more soup to become prettier."
The girl spoke Cantonese, which is 90% similar to Hong Kong dialect in terms of accent and tone.
Shen Zhiyan was stunned. That person had said the same thing to her before.
She was walking on the streets of Paris with a large bag of food in her arms, the wind blowing and leaves falling, floating in her palms. A long-suppressed sadness suddenly surged in her heart.
The valve of emotions opens and tears flow like pearls from a broken string.
But the call on the mobile phone came at an inopportune time.
"Why are you crying? Look up."
On this evening when the autumn leaves were falling in the wind, on the streets of a foreign country, Shen Zhiyan heard a familiar voice that she had not heard for a long time.
She thought that with the passage of time, she could face everything about Li Yanzhou calmly, but when his voice appeared in her ears, Shen Zhiyan's emotions completely went out of control.
Her voice was so soft and whimpering that she could hardly utter complete words, which actually scared the man on the other end of the phone.
Li Yanzhou crossed the road and ran to Shen Zhiyan. Seeing that she was crying uncontrollably, a look of panic flashed across her brows.
"Why are you crying? Are you being bullied?"
Shen Zhiyan lowered her head and said nothing. The thing in her hand fell to the ground. She wanted to squat down to pick it up, but the man next to her was faster than her.
"Shen Zhiyan, why are you crying?"
It was like a thorn stuck in her throat. Shen Zhiyan had no idea what to say. Her mind was a mess and she couldn't utter a word. Only tears kept falling from her eyes, as if they would never stop.
A few minutes later, Li Yanzhou took out a recorder.
"The truth of that year is all here."
Shen Zhiyan lowered her eyes, tears frozen in her red eyes, but also filled with complex emotions that were difficult to describe.
She raised her hand and stopped when she touched the recorder.
Seeing her hesitation, Li Yanzhou directly wrapped the little hand in his palm and stuffed the recorder in it.
"It's up to you whether you listen or not. But I still want you to give me a chance."
The evening breeze was gentle, blowing across Shen Zhiyan's face and lifting a strand of hair.
"it is good."
On the sofa in the apartment, the woman curled herself up in the corner, a very insecure posture. In her hand was a recording pen that was playing.
"What happened back then was completely an unprovoked disaster for the Shen family. Mr. Li Er deliberately pushed the blame on Mr. Shen in front of the old man. In fact... the old man knew in his heart that it was Mr. Li Er who did it.
It's just that he has already lost one son and cannot afford to lose a second one."
The recording suddenly stopped, and in the silence came a sneer. In just one syllable, one could hear the disdain.
Then came that familiar magnetic voice.
"Did the old man ask you or Reiji to do something about the Shen couple's car accident?"
Hearing this, Shen Zhiyan's heart tightened and she held the recorder tightly.
"Yes... It was Li Er who found me and said that the old man asked me to get rid of the Shen family. Mr. Li, I dare not lie to you, it is true. However, when I reported to Mr. Li Er after the action, I accidentally heard his phone call and realized that everything was planned by him.
At that time, I was timid and didn't dare to get involved in this matter, so I took my whole family and left Hong Kong.
For so many years, I have been trembling with fear, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't hide it in the end, and I was saved by you. Maybe this is fate."
Hearing this, Shen Zhiyan's tears fell and she burst into tears instantly.
The car accident her parents had that year was indeed not a simple accident.
"this person……"
As soon as she opened her mouth, Shen Zhiyan realized that her voice was extremely hoarse. She looked at Li Yanzhou but did not dare to get close.
Li Yanzhou had been standing closely beside her on the sofa. Seeing this, he could no longer hold back and pulled her into his arms, comforting her softly.
"It has been submitted directly to the police station, and a lawsuit has been filed in accordance with the law. Don't worry, the statute of limitations has not yet expired for this case."
Li Er is dead and the truth is revealed. For Shen Zhiyan, this is indeed the best news.
As if something that had been hidden for a long time was suddenly released, Shen Zhiyan hugged Li Yanzhou's waist and cried suppressedly, like a wounded little animal, which made people feel distressed.
The recorder slipped from her hand and fell to the ground.
"Cry if you want to, I'm here."
Li Yanzhou patted Shen Zhiyan's back gently, with a look of heartache so deep in his eyes that it could not be melted away.
Shen Zhiyan didn't say anything, but tightly pinched the corner of the man's clothes, and her suppressed crying gradually turned into crying in pain.
Once the pressure is relieved, people will easily become tired. As she cried, Shen Zhiyan lost her strength and looked like she could faint at any time.
Li Yanzhou pulled her up, supported her soft buttocks with one hand, and held her back with the other hand, hugging Shen Zhiyan as if he was holding a child.
He carried the person and walked straight to the bedroom without any hesitation. Fortunately, Shen Zhiyan was crying and confused, otherwise she would definitely wonder how Li Yanzhou was so familiar with the layout of this house.
After putting the person on the bed, Li Yanzhou covered Shen Zhiyan with a quilt, then reluctantly bent his head and kissed her on the forehead. The intimate gesture made it seem as if the two had never been apart, yet it revealed restraint.
Otherwise, he would have hugged her and kissed her hard.
The person under the quilt moved, and the corners of the man's mouth revealed a smile, which slightly rose up, and he whispered: "Go to sleep, I'll go cook."
Before leaving, he poured a cup of warm water and placed it on the bedside. She was still crying so hard, she needed to drink some water.
Two hours later, Shen Zhiyan was awakened by the smell of food.
She rubbed her sore eyes. She knew they were swollen without even looking. She followed the scent to the kitchen, where Li Yanzhou came out carrying a casserole.
Seeing her, the man frowned: "Go get some ice packs. Forget it, sit down first."
He put the casserole on the dining table and went back to the kitchen. After a while, he came out with an ice pack wrapped in a towel.
"Drink more soup and replenish water."
He spoke in Hong Kong dialect, his hands moving non-stop, gently placing ice packs on her red and swollen eyes, making Shen Zhiyan suddenly unable to tell what year or month it was.
He always seemed to be like this before we broke up.
The two were silent for a few minutes. Li Yanzhou put down the ice pack and said, "Eat first, and then apply it later."
Her skin was too tender, and leaving the ice pack on for too long would reduce swelling, but it would make her feel uncomfortable. This was his previous experience.
Li Yanzhou scooped a bowl of soup from the casserole and said, "Try to see if it tastes like you."
The conversation between the two was ordinary, as if they had never argued or separated.
Shen Zhiyan licked her lips, not knowing what to say. After all, in Hong Kong, their relationship was not considered proper. Although the truth of what happened back then had been revealed, but...
"Did you do this?"
Li Yanzhou sat down opposite him. Hearing this, he chuckled and his eyes were filled with a hint of teasing: "Is there a third person here? This is my first time, I don't have much experience, you try it."
Shen Zhiyan slowly picked up the small spoon and took a sip, "It's delicious." There was sincerity in her beautiful eyes.
She was telling the truth. The thing she was most uncomfortable with here was the food, so she would often cook some Chinese food herself. Although Li Yanzhou's soup was not the best, it did remind her of the time she spent in Haiyue Bay.
Perhaps, people from Hong Kong are born with a talent for making soup.
What Shen Zhiyan didn't know was that while she was sleeping, Li Yanzhou made a long-distance international call and asked the nanny to teach him how to cook the meal step by step.
The two of them had a peaceful meal, which was very respectful and polite. However, Shen Zhiyan knew that Li Yanzhou would definitely say something after the meal.
Where will their relationship go?
