Why Did My Ex-Wife’S Aunt Treat Me Like That? Chapter 30
byChapter 30 Chapter 30 The brief warmth is like arsenic.…
Peng Cheng walked out, and there was no one outside.
She walked very slowly, all her movements became very slow,
That man was so careless that he left something behind.Peng Cheng walked out of the ancestral hall not far away. On top of the dense trees under the cold moonlight, there was a blanket that was completely inconsistent with the scene. The cat print on it was winking, stubbornly resisting the cold night.
It was four o’clock in the morning, and at this time, Peng Cheng could only think of one person.
Don’t even have to guess.
She took off the blanket, held it in her hand and took two more steps.The shadows of the trees were whirling as she stood on the bluestone steps. The trees a few steps away were hidden in the dark night, making it unrealistic to see.
“I know it’s you.” Peng Cheng said, looking down at the blanket in her hand, “Come out, I’ll ask someone to take you down, it’s not safe at night.”
No one responded to her.
Peng Cheng slowly took two steps forward.
rustle.
A gust of night wind rustled the leaves. Peng Cheng’s gaze was fixed on one place, his dark eyes suppressed his emotions, but he still said nothing.
In the end, she did not take another step to push away those leaves, even if it was just one step away.
Yuanyi inside held his breath, holding the hiking pole tightly with both hands and poking it into the soft soil.
She and Peng Cheng were so close, so close that she felt Peng Cheng’s breathing could be heard clearly, so close that Yuan Yi knew that as long as Peng Cheng stretched out his hand, he would definitely see himself hiding here.
Yuan Yi closed his eyes nervously.
She was not afraid, but subconsciously felt that Peng Cheng did not want others to see the scene just now.
As long as she didn’t show up, she and Peng Cheng could still tacitly pretend that this never happened and that she hadn’t been there either.
Fortunately, she heard Peng Cheng’s footsteps leaving.
Yuan Yi breathed a sigh of relief and let himself calm down slowly, then moved his position and prepared to return the same way.
She silently pushed aside the bushes, raised her head, and looked into those dark and silent eyes.
Peng Cheng stood a few steps away. After seeing her coming out, the emotion in his eyes relaxed, but he still didn’t speak.
Yuan Yi immediately felt ashamed that he had been caught, and immediately wanted to say sorry to Peng Cheng, but for some reason, these three words had already come up, but they were tightly stuck in his throat, and he could not make any sound.
Except in dreams, she had never seen Peng Cheng like this.
On the surface, it looks the same as usual, but you can feel a bone-chilling chill coming from inside.Peng Cheng is like a lonely cypress tree in the snow, stubborn and cold.
Still very lonely.
Different from usual, showing loneliness.
Especially when she doesn’t say a word.
Yuan Yi really wanted to look deeply into Peng Cheng’s eyes and know the reasons behind Peng Cheng’s emotions, but Peng Cheng had already looked away.
Not long after looking at Yuanyi, Peng Cheng turned around and walked into the ancestral hall. This time she did not return the blanket.
Yuan Yi couldn’t help but follow Peng Cheng’s direction and took half a step more. Then he suddenly froze when he regained consciousness. Yuan Yi realized that he had gone too far.
She gripped the hiking pole tightly and turned around to walk down the mountain.After walking for a short distance, Yuan Yi turned around and saw only Peng Cheng’s back.
When going down the mountain, her legs were shaking, but Yuanyi went down quickly.She walked through the cemetery in silence, walked out to the car, and started the car.
At four-thirty in the morning, she was covered in sweat and extremely sloppy. Her body was still hot flashes, but her heartbeat gradually calmed down. She felt that there were many secrets in Peng Cheng’s body.
These are things that I didn’t know at all in my previous life.
Yuan Yi couldn’t bear it.
Peng Cheng, standing alone in the ancestral hall and in the darkness, lingered in her eyes. She felt that loneliness followed her down the mountain, soaking her whole body.
For the first time, Yuan Yi felt that she was so unbearable. She actually stopped the car not far after driving out. After thinking for about two minutes, she twisted the steering wheel and turned back.
She returned to the parking lot, next to Peng Cheng’s car, set the alarm clock and fell asleep with her clothes on.
An hour later, at half past five, she woke up.
She slept soundly this time, and she was close to Peng Cheng, so she really didn’t dream.After resting for an hour, Yuan Yi felt that his brain was a little clearer, and he could temporarily forget about those things that he couldn’t understand.
It was still not dawn at half past five in the winter, and the wind was very cold. Yuanyi started the car again, drove a little further, and searched along the street.
The cemetery is also next to the funeral parlor, and there are few restaurants nearby, but fortunately there are not none.
It’s still too early for others to say, but the city has begun to wake up.The breakfast shop was already open, and Yuan Yi went to a steaming bun shop to buy breakfast and put it in his inner pocket.
“Boss, could you please give me some hot water?”
The boss was delighted when he saw the plush hot water bottle handed over by Yuan Yi: “Hey, little girl, this is such a weird hot water bottle, it’s the first time I’ve seen it.”
It was a convenient thing, and the boss was also kind-hearted. He filled the hot water for Yuanyi and handed it over. Yuanyi explained with a smile: “This is very convenient for warming legs.”
This is a soft hot water bottle that looks a bit like a flat stocking when not filled with water. After filling with hot water, the hook at the bottom can cover the knees and below.
She returned to the car with the two hot water bottles.
Drive back again.
Peng Cheng hasn’t gotten out yet, her car is still parked, and it’s almost six o’clock now.Yuan Yi ate his share of soy milk and fried dough sticks, gnawed two custard buns, ate a shaomai, and waited quietly.
About twenty minutes later, it was dawn.A taxi approached, and Yuan Yi saw Assistant Nian getting out of it in the rearview mirror.
He was probably here to help Peng Cheng drive, as Peng Cheng was going down the mountain.When Yuan Yi appeared in front of Assistant Nian, Assistant Nian got a huge jump. Then he saw the car behind Yuan Yi and said in a hesitant voice: “Miss Yuan, what are you…”
“I have something for Director Cheng, can you please bring it to her then?” Yuan Yi began to take out things from his bag, first taking out a hot water bottle, and finally taking out breakfast.
“Sorry, I didn’t know you were coming, so I didn’t buy yours.” Yuan Yi apologized. Assistant Nian put away his shock and waved his hand: “I’ve eaten them! Are these, are these for Director Cheng?”
She felt that Yuanyi’s bag was like a treasure chest, and she could take out anything.
Yuan Yi: “Yes, please, I’m leaving.”
Before Assistant Nian had time to ask Yuan Yi why he didn’t deliver it himself, Yuan Yi got into his car and drove away quickly.
That car looks like the boss’s Bentley!
no.
Assistant Nian was confused.
Wasn’t the new Bentayga bought by the boss given to Miss Yuan?
More than half an hour later, Peng Cheng appeared at the gate of the cemetery.Assistant Nian immediately came up to him. She resisted her desire to appease her boss’s concern and just handed over a heavy wood cane that could support him.
With sharp eyes, she saw that the blanket that Miss Yuan had given away was now in the boss’s hand.
Assistant Nian looked at his nose and heart, gently pulled out the blanket and covered the boss’s body.
Peng Cheng did not refuse.
In the car, when Peng Cheng sat down, his senses had not yet returned.A rare look of exhaustion appeared on her face, and she just looked out the car window.
“Boss.” Assistant Nian immediately handed over everything in his hand.
Warmth appeared in the palm of her hand, instantly stimulating her sense of touch, followed by a slow tingling sensation, something warm dissipating the coldness that had penetrated her bones.
The aroma of soy milk and steamed buns also entered the nose.
A very down-to-earth breakfast, with a sweet and salty bun, and everything you drink and eat is still hot.
“Who?”
Assistant Nian also handed over the hot water bottle: “Miss Yuan, she asked me not to tell you that this was a gift from her.”
These usually inconspicuous things were soothing her stomach and cold body, pulling her back into this world.
Peng Cheng’s tense shoulders truly relaxed at this moment. She leaned back with a cup of warm soy milk in her hand and closed her eyes.
For someone who loves ice cream so much, everything he does is always so appropriate and gentle.
Even if he didn’t say anything, he treated her with an almost indifferent attitude.
Why?
Peng Cheng always knew that Yuanyi had other motives for getting close to He Xun back then. She would forget herself and stay with He Xun for so long in order to get enough money.
But now, Yuanyi seems to no longer need money.
She began to appear in front of him, but Peng Cheng was afraid that he didn’t have what Yuan Yi wanted.
Without purpose, Yuan Yi will not stop for a long time.
The short-term warmth is like arsenic, and when you leave, it will be like falling into an ice cellar. Peng Cheng knew this, but he couldn’t say any words of rejection.
It’s like this blanket, going around and around, and now it’s draped on myself again.
In the next few days, Yuan Yi was at two o’clock and one line.
Company, martial arts gym, dormitory.
She went to school midway and everything went well. The instructor asked her to work hard with Li Yujun in the company and achieve some results.
Coach Fang was shocked by Yuan Yi’s persistence.
On the third day, Yuanyi felt that the pain in his body had subsided, and he felt more comfortable whether he was learning new moves or punching.
Yuan Yi has not been harassed by He Xun these days. She knows that He Xun is controlled by his family.Because the last haunting in the cemetery had a huge impact, she had a lot to deal with.
Out of an inexplicable subtlety, Yuan Yi naturally did not go to the cemetery in the middle of the night these days.
However, she came across a lot of news about Jing’an Cemetery on social platforms, saying that security has recently begun to increase manpower to prevent people from sneaking in and setting off electronic firecrackers at night.
Just kidding, how could she keep using the same technique?
On the weekend when he was going to attend a banquet at Peng’s house, He Xun had sent a message to Yuanyi since the morning, asking her to remember to dress up nicely.
Yuan Yi was also speechless to this person. At this point, he still didn’t want to believe that he no longer had her in his heart, and was thinking of trying to save face by himself.
She had never attended this banquet in her previous life and didn’t even know about it.And this time he was able to go, but He Xun was just treating him as a display around him, trying to give the impression that his relationship was still good to others at the banquet.
It was very cold, and Yuan Yi didn’t care about He Xun’s request to dress up properly, so she put on a long down jacket outside.
Once you get to the banquet venue and take off your clothes, the temperature inside can make you wear short-sleeves.Yuan Yi was wearing a set of clothes that Peng Cheng had bought with her before. It was a small black fragrant-style skirt with a large skirt and a square neck. It was simple and elegant, and the black and white classic would never go out of style.
It’s also easy to move around.
Yuanyi put on high heels.This kind of shoe can be used as a weapon when necessary, and it is especially important today.
At six o’clock in the evening, He Xun sent a message saying that she had arrived.
When Yuan Yi went downstairs, He Xun first saw Yuan Yi’s exquisite facial features that had been put on makeup today, and his eyes immediately lit up.Yuan Yi is good-looking, she is pretty when she is without make-up, and even more refined and bright after putting on make-up.
It was strange, because Yuan Yi used to wear makeup every day when he appeared in front of her, and He Xun only thought it was vulgar.
But when he saw the heavy coat on Yuan Yi and the bag on his back, He Xun frowned again.
Did this big bag save Yuan Yi’s life? Why do you love carrying it so much?On what occasion are you still carrying a bag?
The disgust towards Yuanyi’s small family came back to him.
Yuanyi stood by the car door and glared at her: “Are you polite? Open the door.”
After being glared at by Yuan Yi, He Xun came back to his senses and opened the door patiently: “What kind of occasion are you going to? How could you carry such a bag?”
Yuan Yi: “What’s wrong with the bag? I carried this bag to see your ancestors. Those old people didn’t even get up from the ground to beat me. You’re going to cut me.”
He Xun was so angry about this matter this week. He finally waited until the banquet to relax, but Yuan Yi had to tell him.
“You have the nerve to mention this!”
Yuan Yi got into the car and said, “I’ll pick it up later. If you don’t want me to pick it up, drive quickly.”
She was sitting in the back, purely treating He Xun as the driver.
He Xun knew that Yuanyi’s mouth had evolved and was like a poison. For fear of losing time, she could only hold it in and drive resignedly.
The Peng family is still the same as it was when Yuan Yi arrived in his last life.
It’s grand and noble, as magnificent as a manor.But now, looking at the brightly lit villa in the night, she could only think of Peng Cheng who was alone in the Jiuhuashan ancestral hall that night.
I wonder what Peng Cheng will do when he sees himself soon——
She followed He Xun in and pushed open the door of the villa.
There were already many people inside. They heard the sound and looked towards them.Of course, the eyes were mainly focused on Yuan Yi.
A room full of upper-class people dressed in fine clothes stared at Yuan Yi, who was wearing a down jacket, with unclear eyes, as if they were looking at a monkey who came to an amusement park for the first time.
Yuan Yi was stuck at the door and didn’t close the door. The cold wind from outside blew in, making everyone who was looking in front shiver.
She smiled and returned the animal-like look to the group of people. Her tone was natural: “You are dressed so strangely.”
?
He Xun really wanted to cover Yuan Yi’s mouth.
As expected, Yuan Yi let go when the servant closed the door. She had no intention of embarrassing these workers.Just as he stood firm, without taking off his clothes, someone came over.
“It’s so late. What a big deal?”
Yuan Yi raised his eyes, hey, isn’t this an old acquaintance?She knew she would meet him here.
