Chapter 200 We are the most suitable
Sheng Boyan spent New Year's Eve with Sheng Shaojun.
Sheng Shaojun was in a particularly good mood this year, and personally cooked a few dishes and placed them on the altar. He lit three incense sticks, pulled Sheng Boyan to kneel in front of Shen Jiaxiang's spirit tablet, tears welling up in his eyes, and said with emotion: "Brother Xiang, you and Xiaoping have finally avenged your revenge! The father and son of the Wang family will definitely go to hell, and you and Xiaoping can rest in peace."
His voice was choked with sobs: "For so many years, I have been restless day and night. As long as the father and son of the Wang family are alive, I feel like I am being roasted in fire every day. Now it's all right. Ah Yan has avenged you! Even if I go to accompany you right away, I will be at peace and happy in my heart..."
Sheng Boyan hugged his mother and comforted her softly: "Mom, you have to live well. You still have me. You can't abandon me."
"Okay! Okay!" Sheng Shaojun cried loudly in Sheng Boyan's arms. It was the first time in so many years that she cried so freely. "Ayan, thank you. Don't blame me for being cruel. We can't coexist with the Wang family!"
"Yeah, I understand!" Sheng Boyan replied through gritted teeth, tears welling up in his deep black eyes.
He accompanied his mother for a New Year's Eve dinner, and watched her fall asleep before he walked to the balcony alone.
I lit a cigarette, the flame flickered in the dark night, the sound of firecrackers was everywhere outside, and gorgeous fireworks bloomed wantonly in the deep blue sky.
Every house was brightly lit, except his, which was dark and lonely.
He didn't dare to think about the cold and harsh things, as they would hurt him to the bone.
That day when he learned that Yan Liang had a child, he naturally thought that it was the result of their night in the nightclub. However, when Yan Liang admitted that the child was Shen Jianxi's, he seemed to have experienced a baptism of ice and fire, and his body and mind were broken.
At that moment, he really thought he was going to die.
My chest ached as if my heart was being ripped out alive.
Pain and emptiness.
He felt that he was responsible for Jiang Xiaomei's death. If he had not been distracted at the time, he would not have allowed Wang Qinghai to cut her carotid artery, and he would not have allowed her to die from excessive blood loss.
He could have shot Wang Qinghai to death before he caused more harm!
But it was all too late.
Perhaps the only person who felt relieved was that his mother Sheng Shaojun finally got what she wished for. Her years of worry were gone and she could finally sleep peacefully.
But he suddenly felt boundless emptiness and felt that his future life had no meaning.
Xie Yi called him to report the results of some things, but he said "hmm" a few times indifferently and didn't listen at all. Xie Yi asked him out for a drink again, but he didn't go.
He doesn't like to get drunk. When he is depressed, he will just smoke a few cigarettes and suffer while sober.
He stood there until dawn, not feeling sleepy at all. The nanny had gone home for the New Year, so he went to the kitchen to make a simple breakfast for his mother to eat when she woke up.
Sheng Shaojun stared at Sheng Boyan's dark circles at the dinner table and sighed secretly: "Ayan, you should relax for a few days during the New Year. I have an appointment with Min'er to come over today, so don't go out and help me entertain the guests."
Sheng Boyan kept his head down and said nothing, which was considered as his agreement.
Shao Qianmin brought a lot of gifts, even some cartoon-patterned cookies, which made Sheng Shaojun chuckle: "Oh, kid, why did you bring this? Do you think I'm a child? Hahaha!"
"Auntie, I heard that this kind of biscuit has existed since you were a child. It's not that they are so delicious, but what matters is that they bring back rich memories." Shao Qianmin was wearing a cream-colored tight sweater and a purple woolen skirt, which made her figure look curvy and charming.
"That's right! When I was a kid, everyone was very poor. Children who could eat these cookies were considered rich, and other children were so envious." Sheng Shaojun picked up a biscuit with a bear pattern and brought it to his mouth. He took a bite and squinted his eyes to savor it carefully. "And the taste of that time, it seems like time has gone back fifty years."
"Kid, you are so thoughtful!" Sheng Shaojun held Shao Qianmin's hand and kept rubbing it, glancing at Sheng Boyan from the corner of his eyes, "You can talk to Ah Yan, I'll go to the kitchen to make you braised spareribs and fish. Don't go back today, eat here!"
Shao Qianmin readily agreed.
After Sheng Shaojun left, Shao Qianmin walked to Sheng Boyan and followed his gaze to see several little boys setting off firecrackers in the yard downstairs.
"Brother Boyan," she called softly, "My brother said this morning that Yanliang moved to Furong Garden. I called her and wanted to ask her out, but she refused."
As she spoke, she stole a glance at Sheng Boyan's expression and asked carefully, "Are you really divorced?"
Sheng Boyan took out a cigarette box from his trouser pocket, knocked out a cigarette, put it between his lips, and with a crisp sound of a lighter, he lit the cigarette, and a light smoke quickly spread.
He didn't ask Shao Qianmin if she minded. He just took a deep breath and the air was quickly filled with a faint smell of smoke.
Shao Qianmin was a little embarrassed. After a moment's silence, he changed the subject: "I plan to acquire a time-honored jewelry store in Hong Kong, but I don't have enough working capital now. Brother Boyan, are you interested? How about we form a joint venture?"
"Why move to Furong Garden?" Sheng Boyan suddenly spoke and brought the topic back.
Shao Qianmin opened her mouth somewhat uncomfortably, then replied: "I heard that this house is under Yan Liang's name, Brother Boyan, don't you know? I thought you gave it to her."
Sheng Boyan's face turned visibly pale: "No!"
"Oh," Shao Qianmin seemed a little flustered, but there was a hint of joy in her eyes, "I asked my brother later and found out that it was Shen Jianxi who gave it to her. Last night on New Year's Eve, my brother went there and met Shen Jianxi and another man there..."
Sheng Boyan suddenly stabbed out the cigarette he had just taken a few puffs of, and pinched his fingers on the cigarette butt. Shao Qianmin shuddered, would his fingers be burned?
I glanced at his stern expression. Doesn't he feel the pain?
Sheng Boyan turned around and was about to leave. Shao Qianmin couldn't help but yelled, "Brother Boyan!"
She bit her lip and mustered up the courage to say, "You and Yan Liang are over, are you still unable to let go? Brother Bo Yan, will you come with me to Hong Kong City to develop? Let's leave Yan City, leave behind the grudges and disputes here, and go to Hong Kong City!"
Sheng Boyan's steps paused, and his back suddenly stiffened towards Shao Qianmin.
"Brother Boyan, you probably saw my feelings. I like you!" Shao Qianmin said firmly, with a persistent look in her eyes. "From the first moment I saw you, I fell hopelessly in love with you! You are my brother's good brother, why didn't I meet you first? I was unwilling! But at that time you and Yanliang were already married, I had no choice but to watch you."
"But now you're divorced, and Shen Jiannan and I have also broken off our engagement." Shao Qianmin looked eagerly at Sheng Boyan's broad back, "We are both free! Brother Boyan, can you give me a chance? This is the first time I've taken the initiative to like someone, and the first time I've taken the initiative to confess my love for someone. We are the most suitable two. When we're together, we'll be able to thrive and complement each other in both love and career!"
Sheng Boyan turned around slowly and looked at Shao Qianmin sternly: "Is it because of me that you and Shen Jiannan broke up their marriage?"
His eyes were so intimidating that they gave Shao Qianmin a strong sense of oppression. She needed to muster up a lot of courage to look him in the eye.
"Yes!" She admitted frankly, because it was the fact. Compared with Sheng Boyan, Shen Jiannan looked more and more unsightly. His former strengths became intolerable indecision, until she could no longer bear it and proposed to break up.
"So, was it you who did the last time Yan Liang was plotted against in the nightclub?" Sheng Boyan's eyes were like sharp blades, as if they could cut open Shao Qianmin's internal organs and expose them completely in front of him.
Shao Qianmin shuddered suddenly and looked at him in disbelief.
How could he know?
