Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 999: Chapter 999: You’re Not Physically Fit

In the restaurant, Shen Yunfei didn’t speak. Seeing Lian Qingqing’s angry and displeased face, and then comparing it to the just seen Sun Rou, Shen Yunfei didn’t know what to say.

"Shen Yunfei, were you deliberately standing me up?" Lian Qingqing rolled her eyes at Shen Yunfei. Although she was glaring with anger, her eyes were full of feminine charm.

"Qingqing, do you remember Sun Rou?"

Shen Yunfei suddenly asked.

Lian Qingqing paused, instantly recalling the girl who looked exactly like her, seen next to the post office.

Lian Qingqing fell silent, her big eyes flickered, and she said, "Did you see her? Is that why you were late?"

She had to admit, Lian Qingqing was quite smart in certain aspects.

"Yes."

Shen Yunfei recounted the scene he had just witnessed but didn’t describe the specific route. He said, "Now that Dad is gone, I only have you two sisters left."

"She might not acknowledge us." Lian Qingqing didn’t like Sun Rou. Now she relied on being Shen Yunfei’s only sister, and she didn’t hesitate to act spoiled and favored. Otherwise, as a girl with no identity and background, how could she become the Design Director at D Jewelry Company surrounded by rivals?

Sometimes, a pretty face isn’t enough.

"In any case, we should give it a try." Shen Yunfei persuaded kindly.

Lian Qingqing, who was upset earlier, now pursed her lips into a smile and said, "Alright, we’ll give it a try."

Shen Yunfei fixed his gaze on Lian Qingqing. Her smile lingered at the corners of her mouth but didn’t reach her eyes.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lian Qingqing deliberately fluttered her eyes and beckoned to order.

During this time, Shen Yunfei kept silent, firmly looking at Lian Qingqing.

"Shen Yunfei, brother, can you stop looking at me like that?" Lian Qingqing felt unnerved by Shen Yunfei’s gaze.

Shen Yunfei paused for a moment before saying, "Qingqing, the matters of the Lian Family are no longer related to us. Dad’s death..."

Shen Yunfei stopped for a long time. A child doesn’t speak of a father’s faults, moreover, he had enjoyed the glory Dad brought him. Without Dad’s years of effort, he wouldn’t have lived a life of luxury from childhood to adulthood.

Now, with Dad gone, all the past should vanish into smoke. He said, "The past is in the past. We should live well, allowing Dad to rest in peace."

"Qingqing, you need not hold on to the past. It’s time to let go. Now that our siblings are well settled, building families and careers, living happy lives, what’s wrong with that?" Shen Yunfei looked intensely at Lian Qingqing, saying, "Qingqing, you don’t need to live so strenuously. I’m your brother. Although we don’t share the same mother, aside from you and Sun Rou, I have no other relatives in this world."

"Qingqing, do you remember when you last laughed happily?"

"..." Lian Qingqing’s expression flickered slightly.

"Qingqing, you don’t know, when I saw Sun Rou, I felt that I’ve always thought your state was wrong, but couldn’t figure out why. Now, I finally understand."

Shen Yunfei spoke earnestly and sincerely: "You carry too much within you. Even your smile seems masked. Before me, you don’t need to hold back, cry when sad, laugh when happy, no need to hide."

"I..." Lian Qingqing opened her mouth, her eyes filled with tears.

The siblings spoke many words. Eventually, both left with reddened eyes.

Returning to her dwelling, Lian Qingqing’s mind echoed Shen Yunfei’s words. In the end, the face identical to hers surfaced in her memory.

Back then, she merely glanced from afar without any close contact. Now, she thought it necessary to meet.

"Zaozao, Chenchen, quickly, sleep well, goodnight!"

Tang Yue adjusted the fan for the two children and covered their little bellies, reminding them, "Make sure to cover your belly well."

"Goodnight, Mommy."

Chenchen said softly, hugging the doll her uncle gave her. Her bed was occupied two-thirds by dolls, leaving the remaining third for her small figure.

"Goodnight."

Zaozao’s bed was neat and clean, lying straight unlike Chenchen.

Tang Yue turned off the light and quietly stepped out.

Since the children turned four, the siblings began to reside alone in one room, right next to Tang Yue’s room. The beds were placed at a distance, allowing siblings to keep company, yet separated.

"Are they asleep?" Si Yu Meng sat on the edge of the bed, laboriously wiping his body with a towel.

"Yes."

Tang Yue quickly walked up and nagged, "Didn’t I say to wait for me to wipe? Be careful not to pull open the wound."

With the weather being hot now, if the wound gets infected, it’ll be troublesome.

"Don’t think because you’re strong you can ignore injuries, aren’t you afraid of a wound rupture?"

Tang Yue nagged, helping Si Yu Meng lie down, and carefully wiped his body with a towel. Si Yu Meng lay arms spread, wearing only boxer shorts, his entire body spread like a big letter ’X’ on the bed. From his angle, Tang Yue’s smooth forehead, sharply curved nose, her lips barely touched yet pale crimson, and most captivating of all, were her sparkling eyes.

Her hands tenderly pat, occasionally landing on his body, provoking a strong reaction.

Tang Yue hadn’t reached the critical spot yet. She glared at him, and Si Yu Meng innocently said, "It’s not me, it’s him who likes you too much."

"Didn’t you say your restraint is good? How easily stimulated!"

Tang Yue now, though no longer blushing easily as before, has always been rather shy about this matter. Suddenly, her eyes moved slyly.

Tang Yue lifted her head, with a sweet smile, this smile was so beautiful it made Si Yu Meng sense something was off.

And sure enough, the next moment when Tang Yue wiped his body, it was like she deliberately touched him. Already on edge, now feeling incredibly uncomfortable!

"You did it on purpose." Si Yu Meng caught her mischievous hand, his dark eyes seeming to ignite a blaze.

"Heehee~"

Tang Yue grinned, her brow curved, innocently saying, "No, I’m just wiping your body."

To clarify her innocence, Tang Yue particularly used the towel to wipe his body, meanwhile, her tender hands...

Si Yu Meng only felt an unbearable burning inside, as if a fire ready to explode!

"Ah..."

Suddenly, Tang Yue was pulled entirely by Si Yu Meng.

"Wife, you lit the fire, so put it out." Si Yu Meng’s lips came over.

Tang Yue firmly opposed, "Your body isn’t fit!"

Si Yu Meng bit her fiercely, saying, "Wife, whether your man is fit or not, you’ll find out later."
