The Pianist And The Lady[Republic Of China Gl] Chapter 64

Chapter 64

Lan Yuan drank the water slowly and organized her words. She didn’t want Shen Xian to worry more, “The doctor said the situation is not bad. He will get better gradually by taking medicine. I won’t have anything to worry about, so I’ll be back.”

The fact that his father is seriously ill has nothing to do with Chen Xian, and the bankruptcy of the Lan family has nothing to do with Chen Xian, so Lan Yuan feels that Shen Xian does not need to know these things.

“That’s good, nothing is more important than health.” Shen Xian touched Lan Yuan’s head, “Are you hungry?”

Lan Yuan touched her stomach. She hadn’t eaten for a day, but she had no appetite. “I’m not hungry, I’m sleepy.”

Lan Yuan just wants to sleep and forget all these things, pretending that nothing happened to the Lan family!

“Then I’ll put the bath water in for you.” Shen Xian stood up and walked to the bathroom.

“Okay, thank you Shen Chen.” Lan Yuan kissed Shen Xian gently and felt much better.

The only person in the world who truly treats her is Shen Xian. Lan Yuan plans to go to England and never come back!

“By the way, what is this?” Lan Yuan pointed to the large pile of paper on the living room table, which was densely covered with English.

“Just ordinary information.” Shen Xian said nonchalantly, his eyes evasive.

Lan Yuan didn’t ask any more questions, she was too tired.

The next day Lan Yuan got up and went to work as usual.

But when she woke up, the things about the Lan family trapped her. She couldn’t completely ignore the misery of her family, but she didn’t want to compromise and get married.

When Lan Yuan came to work in the store, she was worried all morning.

Unfortunately, Xu Ziyu came to the store today, and they met on a narrow road.

Although Lan Yuan never stopped Shen Xian from visiting Xu Ziyu, she never accompanied Shen Xian there. She was not generous enough to greet her former love rival with a smile and let go of the past.

Xu Ziyu asked Lan Yuan to make clothes for her by name.

Lan Yuan measured her size and found that except for the bulge in her belly, the rest of her body was the same as last time.

The last time Xu Ziyu came to make clothes was two months ago. At that time, Uncle Hunter measured her measurements, but Lan Yuan made the clothes according to the measurements.

“You should eat more, being too thin is not good for you.” Lan Yuan said sincerely.

Although she didn’t like Xu Ziyu, as a woman, she really felt sorry for Xu Ziyu who was pregnant with Liujia.

“You don’t have to worry about it.” Xu Ziyu said her anger very gently this time.

Although she doesn’t like Lan Yuan, she is reluctant to destroy her sincere concern.

“I’m just suggesting, it’s up to you whether you want to or not.” Lan Yuan took a pencil to write down her new size.

“You two really have the same virtue.” Xu Ziyu curled her lips. She remembered that Shen Xian had said something similar, and the two of them were becoming more and more similar.

Lan Yuan naturally knew that Xu Ziyu was talking about Shen Xian, and she smiled inadvertently, “I can’t help it, I am being influenced by my wife every day.”

Xu Ziyu rolled her eyes inadvertently, with disgust on her face, “If you care about me, you might as well care more about Shen Xian. She will probably collapse before me. After all, she stays up late every day to translate things.”

In fact, Xu Ziyu didn’t really want to make clothes today——

Previously, she heard from Qian Pei that Shen Xian had taken a lot of work from publishing houses. She knew that she could not persuade Shen Xian to take care of his body, so she came to Lan Yuan.

“What did you say?” Lan Yuan was surprised, she had never known this.

“We all know that her liver has been injured and she cannot stay up late for a long time. Please advise her. If she doesn’t make any money, she will lose her life.” Xu Ziyu continued.

“I will persuade her, thank you for telling me this today.” Lan Yuan pretended to be calm and said, but in fact she was very panicked.

“I’m not in a hurry to put on the clothes. Just let me know when it’s ready.” Xu Ziyu achieved her goal today and left the store without intending to stay.

At noon, Hunter was cooking on the second floor.

Lan Yuan was sitting alone at the workbench, and had been sitting blankly since Xu Ziyu left——

She held her forehead and rubbed her temples vigorously, remembering the dense English materials she saw yesterday. In fact, there were many manuscripts beside them. Lan Yuan did not look carefully at that time and ignored them.

How many nights had Shen Xian stayed up? He was still so willing to take his own life even though he was in poor health. The more Lan Yuan thought about it, the more she blamed herself for not finding out earlier. She was obviously the person next to her, but she still wanted to know these things from others.

When he got home at night, Lan Yuan took a shower and took Shen Xian to bed on the pretext of being too sleepy, but he was actually pretending to be asleep.

In the middle of the night, when the alarm clock on the bedside showed twelve o’clock, Lan Yuan heard Shen Xian get out of bed and leave.

After a while, Lan Yuan also got out of bed and opened the study door.

Shen Xian was translating something with his glasses on. When he saw Lan Yuan barging in, he quickly took off his glasses and hurriedly tried to hide the manuscript paper.

“Let’s talk.” Lan Yuan closed the door, left the study, and waited for Shen Xian in the living room.

Chen Xian knew that he couldn’t hide anymore, so he walked out helplessly and heavily.

Lan Yuan was wearing a thin nightgown and a short cloak, sitting upright with her back straight.

“I’m busy at work, and I have a temporary creative inspiration. I want to write it down quickly.” This was the only reasonable excuse that Chen Xian came up with when he went downstairs.

Lan Yuan almost believed it, if she didn’t already know the truth.

“Do you think I’m easy to deceive? Do you think I don’t have the right to know anything about you?” Lan Yuan asked.

From Xu Ziyu’s incident, to being bullied by a singer at work, to now translating things every day, hiding everything or not telling the truth, Lan Yuan suddenly felt like an outsider.

Shen Xian knew that he couldn’t hide it anymore, but he didn’t want to tell the truth to make Lan Yuan worried, “I just took some work, and my friend asked me to help with the work.”

“Which friend of yours, why didn’t you bring me to meet him?” Lan Yuan continued to ask, knowing that Shen Xian didn’t tell the truth.

“Just…colleagues who work together.” Shen Xian said tremblingly.

“You’re not good at lying, Chen Xian.” Lan Yuan said coldly, calling Chen Xian’s full name coldly and without emotion.

“I just want to make more money, so that we will have less pressure to go to the UK.” Shen Xian quickly told the truth.

“Besides, translation is not a tiring job, and you can make money just by writing.” Shen Xian said pretending to be relaxed.

Things go back to May——

Shen Xian and Lan Yuan were already planning to return to England. Lan Yuan still remembered that she owed Qian Pei a painting, so she quickly painted a landscape and asked Shen Xian to give it to Qian Pei.

Shen Xian went to give Qian Pei a painting of Lan Yuan, and happened to meet Qian Pei chatting with the president of a publishing house.

Qian Pei once studied in the UK, and the president wanted to ask Qian Pei to introduce some friends with good literary skills and good English grammar to help translate some English novels.

Qian Pei immediately thought of Shen Xian sitting next to him, “Our little Shen is very good in Chinese and English, and he has read a lot of books.”

President Wang naturally believed Qian Pei’s recommendation, “I thought this was Madam’s little sister. I wonder if Miss Shen has any intentions?”

The facial features of Shen Xian and Qian Pei were very similar. President Wang just took it for granted that they were biological sisters.

“But our little Shen plays the piano.” Qian Pei glanced at Shen Xian and really felt that looking at Shen Xian’s eyes was like looking into his own eyes.

President Wang laughed a few times and said, “God is not kind to me. I’m afraid Miss Shen won’t be able to get out of school.”

After President Wang resigned and left, Shen Xian exchanged a few words with Qian Pei and then hurried out and chased after him.

“President Wang, I can take your job and try out the manuscript for free.” Shen Xian said breathlessly. She really needed this job to support her family.

After trying out the manuscript, President Wang was very satisfied and settled on a long-term cooperation.

Because he is Qian Pei’s friend, the price given by President Wang is also very fair.

Half a month ago, President Wang visited Qian Pei again and mentioned Shen Xian’s talent and efforts in translation——

“Normally people can’t translate half a book in half a month, but Xiao Shen did it, and he translated it in a concise and elegant way!”

Qian Pei went to visit Xu Ziyu, who was holding back her pregnancy at home, and mentioned this matter when they talked about Shen Xian.

Xu Ziyu thought about it and told Lan Yuan.

Lan Yuan is currently judging Shen Xian——

Lan Yuan knew that Shen Xian took the job so that he could alleviate the financial pressure in the UK later, and suddenly he didn’t know what to say!

Her waist was no longer as straight as before, and her back was very weak. She suddenly felt that she had pushed Shen Xian to this point.

“I was wrong, I…I won’t do this job either.” Shen Xian knelt directly beside Lan Yuan and pulled her pajamas. She was afraid that Lan Yuan would be angry, and she was also afraid that Lan Yuan would abandon her in anger.

Lan Yuan saw Shen Xian’s humble flattery to her, and all the little anger in her heart dissipated. Now she didn’t blame Shen Xian, but more herself, blaming herself for being like a burden——

If Shen Xian hadn’t been with him, he wouldn’t have been injured, wouldn’t have worked so hard for broken silver, and wouldn’t even be as humble as he is now!

Shen Xian was supposed to be the freest and unruly bird in the world, the shining star in the Milky Way, the one who should stand on the stage and be noticed, but he was delayed by himself.

He couldn’t help Shen Xian, he couldn’t save the Lan family, he was useless.

“It’s cold on the ground, please get up. We’ll sleep in separate rooms for now. I don’t know how to face you now.” Lan Yuan left the living room directly and went to the second bedroom to rest.

Lying on the bed, Lan Yuan assumed for ten thousand times that if she and Shen Xian were not together, it seemed that no matter what, it would be better than the current situation.

But Lan Yuan asked herself again, would she be willing to be separated ten thousand and one times?The answer is reluctant.

She was very selfish and wanted to keep Chen Xian too much. From the moment she fell in love at first sight in the Lan family, deep down in her heart she wanted to take Chen Xian as her own.

Opening the door and walking out of the second bedroom, Lan Yuan saw Shen Xian squatting outside her door with scarlet eyes. She must have cried a lot.

Lan Yuan knelt down and hugged Shen Xian, “Shen Chen, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t lose my temper with you.”

Chen Xian hugged Lan Yuan’s waist tightly and lay on her shoulders. Lan Yuan was so unfeeling just now, her heart was broken.

“I will confess everything to you from now on, and I will tell you in advance what I do. You can’t let me go.” Shen Xian choked and said.

“I won’t let you go. I lost control just now. It’s not your fault.” Lan Yuan felt that the clothes on her shoulders were wet with Shen Xian’s tears. She kept stroking Shen Xian’s back to comfort him.

“You can’t live without me, you must promise me.” Shen Xian hugged him tighter, like an insecure child.

“Okay, okay, I promise Shen Chen.” Lan Yuan patted Shen Xian on the back.

The two lay on the bed again, with Shen Xian sleeping firmly holding Lan Yuan’s shoulders.

“Chen Chen, from now on we will shoulder everything together. If we work together, there will be nothing we can’t overcome.” Lan Yuan gently rubbed Shen Xian’s face, her eyes gentle and affectionate.

“And you have to take care of your health first, and then think about making money.” Lan Yuan continued.

“Okay, it’s all up to you.”

Gradually, amid the sound of Lan Yuan reading, Chen Xian closed his eyes and fell asleep.
