The actress is reborn and is chasing after her husband.
Chapter 58 Leaving
Just as Xi Molin hung up on Shu Xiangjun, Shu Xiangyu called immediately. Looking at the number labeled "sister" on the screen, she hesitated even more, wondering whether she should answer, afraid of upsetting her.
She didn't answer the first time, but quickly called back.
After some hesitation, she answered the call anyway.
"Where are you now?"
Shu Xiangyu sat in the car, trying her best to control her burning anger.
Schimmelin's heart tightened suddenly. Did she know that he was about to leave?
Shu Xiangyu lowered his voice and asked her again, "I'm asking you, where exactly are you right now?"
"At...the train station."
She answered in a low voice.
"Come out right now, get your ticket refunded, I'll be there soon."
After hanging up the phone, Shu Xiangyu gripped it tightly. She now suspected that Momo was going through a rebellious phase, becoming increasingly eccentric and refusing to listen to any advice, always doing the opposite of what she was told.
With the boarding time approaching, many passengers lined up at the ticket gate.
Schimerlin stood up and looked at the people coming and going in the station, all of them there to reach their respective destinations.
She now faces a similar choice: whether to take the train back to her hometown or to exit the station and face her sister.
Hesitation and indecision once again put her in a difficult position…
Before Shu Xiangyu even arrived at the train station, a WeChat notification sounded again, this time from Momo.
"Sister, I'm sorry. I'm already on the train and will be leaving the station soon. I'm so sorry for making you worry about me. You've been wondering what happened to me. It's not that I deliberately hid it, but I can't tell you. Maybe I can tell you in the future, but by then it might not matter anymore. I know you're very angry with me, angry that I was disobedient, angry that I was willful, angry that I left without saying goodbye. All I can do is apologize. Please don't tell Rong's father and Yang's mother about this. I don't want them to worry about me. I've grown up, and I need to experience and bear many things on my own. I will always remember your kindness to me. Please don't be angry for too long. You will always be my dearest sister."
After reading the long message she sent, Shu Xiangyu couldn't help but feel emotional.
The silly blockhead has finally grown up and is no longer as dependent on me as he was when he was a child.
Rather than being angry with her, I was more upset that she no longer shared everything with me.
The intimacy and affection of the past gradually faded, and she developed her own secrets, secrets that she could not share with others, secrets that belonged only to her.
She told the driver to turn back. Since she had decided to leave, no matter how hard she chased after her, she couldn't calm her down. It was better to set her free.
"Wood, I only hope that you can always be happy. What's done is done, and I won't ask about it anymore... Please be careful on your journey."
Schimerling stood alone in the train aisle, looking down at the message her sister had sent, tears falling silently once again.
"I will, thank you, sister."
Outside the car window, the neon-lit world slowly disappeared from her sight. She came full of expectations and left with a heavy heart. These experiences were, for her, a kind of growth.
Shu Xiangyu returned home and found the house spotless, with no trace of her presence. The only proof that she had been there was the bed sheet hanging on the balcony.
That silly blockhead is so stubborn and inflexible; once he's made up his mind, not even a hundred oxen could pull him back.
Back in the bedroom, I turned on the light and found a blue rectangular gift box on the bedside table, tied with a ribbon bow.
She picked it up; it was still quite heavy.
So he sat on the edge of the bed, placed the gift box on his lap, untied the ribbon, and opened the lid of the gift box.
Inside was a wooden carving that bore an eight or nine-tenths resemblance to her.
She took it out and examined it closely. The appearance and expression were truly lifelike, and even the dress was carved in great detail. It could even stand up, which must have taken a lot of effort.
Inside the gift box was a card with a message that read: "To my dearest sister, wishing you good health, happiness, and success in your career."
With her meticulous and pragmatic nature, Shu Xiangyu suspected that she had carved the wood carving herself, but she had never seen her have any interest in this area, so she could only ask her later.
Shu Xiangjun called again soon after.
"Sis, are you really going to let Wood just leave like that?"
"She's already on the train, what can I do?"
Shu Xiangyu regretted leaving her alone at home; otherwise, she wouldn't have let her leave. If her head had really been damaged, she couldn't predict the consequences.
Why did you two argue?
They all tacitly agreed not to tell him or their parents about this incident, so as not to worry them.
"Why are you so concerned? Do you think telling me will solve the problem?"
Hearing her yell at him, Shu Xiangjun immediately retorted, "You always know how to speak harshly to me. It was clearly the blockhead who made you angry..."
"Okay, I'll hang up now."
Shu Xiangyu glanced at the wooden carving, and remembering the silly wooden figure's dull expression, her anger was reignited. It was all Shu Xiangjun's fault; she shouldn't have talked so much nonsense to him…
Around 2 a.m., a group of wealthy second-generation individuals who had just finished a meal at Guanshan Club were preparing to leave.
Organizer Ma Weijun treated the guests with courtesy as they bid them farewell.
"Mr. Mei, if you have any good investment opportunities in the future, please remember to contact us again..."
"Okay, we'll be going now."
Mei Xiaofei looked indifferent and was about to leave when Ning Ran, the second son of a well-known insurance company, suddenly walked quickly closer and walked alongside her.
"Mr. Mei, I have something I'd like to ask you..."
Mei Xiaofei usually disliked this playboy the most, but she still maintained a calm demeanor.
"what's up?"
Ning Ran lowered her head slightly, her eyes gleaming, and whispered to her, "Your assistant seems quite nice. Does she have a boyfriend? Could you introduce us to each other formally..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mei Xiaofei suddenly stopped her tall figure.
She gave him a cold glance, as if a sharp arrow was hidden within.
"Don't worry, I will definitely not mistreat her..."
Ning Ran didn't notice the change in her emotions, but instead looked at Yu Qingtong who was waiting by the car not far away.
Chang Ming, who was following behind the two, noticed Fei Jie's strange behavior. Having experienced how terrifying she could be when she was angry, he kindly went over and put his arm around Ning Ran's shoulder, even though his relationship with Ning Ran was just so-so, and quickly escaped from Mei Xiaofei's sight.
"You dare to hunt down women around Sister Fei? You've got some nerve."
Ning Ran remained unmoved: "He's just an assistant, it can't be that serious."
Chang Ming looked back and saw that Sister Fei had already left in her car before letting go of him.
"Are you playing dumb? If that assistant were just an assistant, would I be advising you? Everyone in the industry knows Yu Qingtong is Sister Fei's person. Do you even understand the relationship? You still dare to openly ask her for someone? Do you have a death wish?"
"You mean Yu Qingtong is President Mei's bedmate?"
Ning Ran suddenly realized what was happening, and her hair stood on end. Mei Xiaofei was known for her ruthlessness, and her younger brother was even more notorious for being a pervert. He simply liked beautiful women, but the two siblings from the Mei family were involved in a wide range of businesses.
"Good luck to you these days, I'm leaving now..."
Chang Ming stopped arguing with him and turned to leave.
Ning Ran felt uneasy and followed up, "Chang Ming, could you please apologize to President Mei for me?"
"Go yourself if you want to. I don't want to get into trouble."
Chang Ming remained unmoved and quickly drove away.
Ning Ran stood there, feeling conflicted. He genuinely liked Yu Qingtong, but since she was Mei Xiaofei's woman, it seemed he would have to ask his brother to help him…
On the way back to Bixi Garden, Mei Xiaofei seemed a little drunk. He leaned his elbow on the armrest in the middle of the car seat, rested his hand on his forehead, and closed his eyes to rest.
Yu Qingtong was in charge of driving, and everything went smoothly and quietly.
"Back to Yunqing tonight."
"Yes…"
How did you and Ning Ran meet?
Mei Xiaofei maintained his posture, his tone calm and even.
Yu Qingtong focused on driving, her expression unchanged, and answered her truthfully: "Last year at your gathering in Miaocang, he had an asthma attack while he was out alone, and I helped him out."
"Did you still see each other often after that?"
"No, I've only run into them a few times."
"He asked me tonight if I wanted to get to know you... Do you want to be with him?"
Mei Xiaofei opened her deep, dark eyes, lowered her supporting hand, and sat up straight.
"Can I just think about it?"
Yu Qingtong countered with a question.
Their private relationship was not as harmonious as it appeared; in fact, they were often at odds with each other.
"If you're willing, why not?"
Mei Xiaofei glanced faintly at her profile, hidden in the shadows, through the dim light.
Yu Qingtong glanced at her out of the corner of her eye through the rearview mirror, then looked away, feigning nonchalance, and said, "If President Mei allows it, being with him should be quite good. He's rich and handsome..."
The car then fell into dead silence.
"parking!"
Mei Xiaofei suddenly spoke coldly, but Yu Qingtong ignored her and continued driving forward.
"I told you to stop the car..."
A voice filled with anger is intimidating.
Yu Qingtong seemed not to hear her, and instead accelerated.
Mei Xiaofei put the armrest back in its original position and said coldly, "Yu Qingtong, are you afraid of me?"
"Why ask a question you already know the answer to, Ms. Mei..."
Yu Qingtong sneered inwardly.
Mei Xiaofei had always known that the people around her were afraid of her, but for some reason, she didn't want Yu Qingtong to be the same.
Silence filled the carriage once more, a subtle undercurrent of tension slowly rising between the two sides…
After driving for more than an hour in the dark, we finally arrived at Yunqing Mountain Villa on the outskirts of the city.
After the car entered the village and parked, Yu Qingtong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She got out of the car, took a few deep breaths of the crisp air to calm her unease, and then went to the back to open the car door.
Mei Xiaofei got out of the car and stood face to face with her. She reached out and gently pinched her chin, making her look at her.
Their eyes met, and the undercurrents between them finally became clear: "Yu Qingtong, you're getting more and more audacious."
Faced with her assertiveness, Yu Qingtong did not back down; instead, her gaze turned mocking: "President Mei is joking. When have I ever been presumptuous..."
Mei Xiaofei leaned in close to her, their breaths mingling, a hint of malice hidden deep in his eyes: "Do you really want to leave?"
"No."
Yu Qingtong's chin was pinched painfully, and she frowned slightly, but she did not try to break free.
Seemingly having heard the answer she wanted, Mei Xiaofei released her grip, separating herself slightly: "At least you have some self-awareness..."
After saying that, she didn't say anything more and turned to go back to her house in the manor.
Yu Qingtong watched her departing figure, feeling a mix of emotions. The events of the day had made her truly want to break free from the control of the Mei siblings.
But once she left, she would never see Mei Xiaofei again, and thinking of this, she felt a little reluctant to leave.
However, she knew very well that the cold-blooded woman had never taken her seriously, and that she had been delusional...
Mei Xiaofei returned to her room, feeling extremely agitated by some inexplicable emotions. How dare Ning Ran covet her woman? She was asking for trouble.
Yu Qingtong's arrogance now also annoyed her. The kitten's claws became sharper and sharper, and it even learned to scratch people, constantly challenging her bottom line.
