Chapter 2039: A Pain That Can Breath (4)

Lan Xiu sat for a while. Seeing that it was already late at night and that Dongfang Liuyun looked exhausted, he got up and bade farewell. Dongfang Liuyun personally walked him to the door.

“Go back, you know the way. It’s too cold, you have to take care of yourself.”

When he reached the door, Lan Xiu stopped and turned around to look at her with concern.

“It’s fine. It’s just a few steps. Drive carefully on the road,” Dongfang Liuyun replied.

Lan Xiu nodded and got into the car. Soon, he drove away.

Dongfang Liuyun watched the car disappear into the night before he turned around and went back.

In the end, Lan Xiu left the things and the card.

Dongfang Liuyun held it in her hand and watched silently. Her heart was filled with gratitud—

Lan Xiu had always been like this. She probably owed him too much in this life.

After being in a trance for a long time, Dongfang Liuyun put away her things and took them upstairs.

She returned to the study and walked unhurriedly to the bookshelf that was filled to the brim. She thought that she should find a place to put it away and return it after it had stabilized for a while. In this way, Lan Xiu would not be able to say anything.

However, just as she put the document folder away, she suddenly noticed another thick document folder beside her.

Was it one of Qi Lei’s documents?

Dongfang Liuyun frowned in confusion and took it down. As she opened it, she walked towards the sofa. She sat down and pulled out the document inside—

There were pieces of drawing blocks inside. On the drawing blocks, there were actually…

All of them were portraits of her. There were side portraits, back portraits, and front portraits.

There were even dates on them. It had started when she was in class at University A.

She had long known that he had great drawing skills, but she did not expect it to be so good. He had captured every single expression of hers clearly. There were a total of thirty to forty of them, and every single one of them was different…

Dongfang Liuyun paused. She flipped through the pages one by one, and her heart began to ache.

However, when she flipped to the back, she suddenly found a document. When she opened it and looked at it, it was actually…

A transfer of ownership of the property..

All the assets were transferred to her name!

Dongfang Liuyun was stunned, and she was in a daze!

Why did he do this?

Was it a betrothal gift for her?

Did he not already give it to her?

When she looked down again, it was actually a contract to sell one’s body. His contract was written in a refined manner, making Dongfang Liuyun laugh out loud!

No wonder he told her that he would give her a wedding that she would never forget. Thinking about it…

He was such a childish and cute man!

Dongfang Liuyun watched silently, but she could not control his tears. A dull pain gathered in her chest, and even his breathing felt a little painful.

He loved her more deeply than she did, but he never said anything. He silently gave her everything that he had.

Dongfang Liuyun suddenly understood that this man had always loved her in his way. She suddenly blamed herself for not being as attentive to him as he was to her!

She should have responded to all the warmth he had given her with 200% enthusiasm.

“Being with you makes me feel like we’re two idiots in love, but I really like this feeling. When you return, I’ve decided to love you well. Will you return?”

Dongfang Liuyun sniffed and blinked. She suppressed the hot tears in her eyes and muttered these words in a low voice.

Her hand subconsciously touched her flat lower abdomen.

She thought that she might not be able to find a second person who treated her better in this world.

“Baby, please give mommy more strength. You also believe that your father will come back safely, right?”

Dongfang Liuyun naturally did not receive any answer. However, at this moment, she suddenly felt that her entire body was filled with strength!

…

Zhou Zimo’s wedding was in three days. It was already the end of the year, and New Year’s Eve was only a few days away.

The end of the year was already very lively. With such a joyous occasion, there were naturally many people who came to congratulate him.

At this moment, the Qin family in the military compound was also displaying their lanterns and decorations.

In Qin Su’s room.

The makeup artist had come over early in the morning to help Qin Su get dressed.

Qin Su was even more stunning in her wedding dress. Her beauty had always been astonishing. Even the equally stunning Leng Xinran was shocked by Qin Su’s beauty at that moment.

Qin Su only invited one bridesmaid, and that person was Leng Xinran.

The two of them had been friends for many years. They had known each other for more than twenty years, and they were even closer friends.

At that moment, Leng Xinran was also wearing a bridesmaid’s dress made of fairy crane powder. Her beautiful hair was tied up elegantly, revealing her exquisite and beautiful face. She was undoubtedly a pair of peerless beauties together with her bride, Qin Su.

“Xinran, actually, I never thought that I would have such a day. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty years have passed. We are both old. Now, we have to rush to get married. When will you be more attentive to your own marriage?”

Qin Su looked at herself in the mirror, and her gaze quickly stopped on Leng Xinran, who was helping her tidy up her veil.

Leng Xinran listened. She did not even lift her eyelids, but her indifferent voice traveled over, “Worry about yourself. It’s not that you don’t know that I’m anti-marriage.”

“Wasn’t I also anti-marriage before this? Aren’t I getting married now anyway?” Qin Su frowned slightly and replied.

Leng Xinran paused for a moment, and then replied, “I’ll let nature take its course. When fate comes, I won’t resist it. If it doesn’t come, I won’t force it. I can see that the man who married you isn’t bad. It’s rare that you, Qin Su, are going to become a woman who takes care of a husband and brings up children. You can be considered to have completed your merits.”

“That’s how you are. You’re always so lifeless. You have to free yourself… Xinran, I’m serious. You can’t always deal with those people, right? Also… guarding the tomb isn’t something a person like you should do.”

Qin Su felt the most heartache for Leng Xinran.

Leng Xinran stopped what she was doing and glanced at her with a half-smile. “What? If you feel sorry for me, don’t getting married and stay with me?”

“Xinran!”

Qin Su’s voice was cold.

Leng Xinran raised her eyes and met her gaze in the mirror.

“Sometimes, dealing with the dead is better than dealing with the living. There’s nothing bad about guarding the tomb. There are many things that someone has to do. I’ll just take it as a way to gather merit. It’s not like you don’t know that my life has been tough.”

When Leng Xinran said this, her eyes were full of sarcasm, but Qin Su could always catch a hint of helplessness.

“I don’t believe that. You don’t believe it either!”

Qin Su rolled her eyes at Leng Xinran.

Leng Xinran’s cold face softened, “It doesn’t matter. I want some peace and quiet too. In a few days, I might have to go back.”

“Mm, you should go back too.”

Qin Su sighed softly and reached out to hold her hand. “You will meet that person eventually.”
