Sweet Wife in My Arms - Chapter 806
Chapter 806: That Certain Someone And Someone Else
Liang Chen reached out and gently patted Yan Huan’s shoulder.
“There are plenty of fish in the sea. Lu Yi is not the only man in the world. Be more open-minded, I’m sure you will meet an even better man.”
Yan Huan turned her head around and faintly smiled at her. Hmm, I will meet an even better man. I know that. It will definitely be better than the last one. However, she did not want to dwell on the thought any longer. Thus, she would accept her fate.
All she had to do was to pretend that Lu Yi was dead.
Yan Huan had been sitting there for the entire afternoon, but Liang Chen’s chubby little daughter kept sleeping without waking up. She originally wanted to play with the little kid for a while. However, the little kid’s afternoon nap ruined her plans for the day. Liang Chen mentioned that her daughter would doze off until about 8 pm at night for her milk, then swiftly returned to her sweet dreamland. When she woke up again, it would be about 7 am the next morning. She would only be wide awake when she was hungry for food. Other than that, she was usually quiet as a mouse and gentle as a deer. She was very easy to handle and was never a noisy nuisance for others.
Later, Yan Huan drove her car when she left Liang Chen’s place. However, her heart seemed to feel vacant and barren, she neither had a purpose nor a destination.
Soon after, she halted her vehicle and took out a box of cigarettes from the sun visor. Casually, she took out a single cigarette and placed it on one side of her mouth. She rolled down her car window and began to slowly smoke the cigarette mindlessly. Truthfully speaking, she smoked a lot less now, unlike the time when she discovered that Lu Yi’s memory of her had vanished after he returned. She was severely insomniac from the pain, thus she spent her restless and sleepless nights smoking away. Now that she had come around and cleared her mind, she was able to think clearly for herself and overcome the heartache. Therefore, she rarely touched her box of cigarettes now. Furthermore, she dared not to smoke in front of Old Master Lu. If he witnessed her attempting to smoke, he would surely pick up his staff from the wall again and give her a good beating. He was relentless and determined to make her learn her lesson through physical pain.
She narrowed her eyes, as she truly felt that she had fallen very far down in life. As she exhaled another puff of air, the wispy smoke gradually dissipated from her field of vision, clearing both the view in front of her and her state of mind.
A car slowly approached from afar before stopping in front of her conveyance. Then, two people, a man and a woman, came out of the car. She did not notice it initially, but when the man’s side profile emerged before her eyes, she hastily extinguished the cigarette with the tip of her finger.
Some people would remain forever in both her lives’ memories. Even if they were long gone and had turned into ashes, she would still not forget them.
Lu Qin? Why was he hunting here? Yan Huan leaned back slightly and coldly stared at the two people standing nearby. It seemed that they were engaging in an unscrupulous act of lust right before her very eyes.
As Yan Huan had parked her car in the dark, hidden corner, no one would realize that someone was actually present there. From that spot, she could soak in the entire view of their perverse activity. She took out her mobile phone and took a few photos of the two almost-naked figures standing in front of her. Perhaps these pieces of evidence would be of use to her in the future, although they were not in high definition.
She would glance at them every now and then, but her heart trembled in surprise when she had a realization.
Isn’t she that…
She could not believe her eyes, hence she took a few more photos of the passionate couple. When she zoomed in on the pictures, the woman’s face could be clearly seen.
She edged nearer to her phone and looked more closely at the woman’s profile, staring fixedly at the image before her.
It really was her…
What was she called again…?
Sun Yuhan, the woman that Lu Yi was marrying. Why is she making passionate love with Lu Qin?
One should never judge a book by its cover indeed. She appeared to be a kind and upright lady from an upstanding family, yet she was covertly partaking in illicit sexual acts. She truly had no shame and dignity. Yan Huan grabbed the blanket as she wanted to wait for them to be done with their lovemaking so it would be easier for her to leave. However, her stomach suddenly growled in hunger.
The full view of their bare backsides was absolutely disgusting to take in. Thus, Yan Huan began to kill time by playing on her phone. Seconds slowly ticked away with each scroll and swipe of her fingers on the screen. When she finally raised her head again, both of them and their car had already disappeared.
After that, Yan Huan drove her car home, but it was already almost 9 pm when she arrived at Lu Yi’s residence.
“Why are you home so late? You are a lady, can you act with more decency?”
“Grandpa, I’m an adult woman already.” Yan Huan ambled slowly over with a box in her hand.
Old Master Lu merely groaned in disapproval, but his eyes were constantly focused on the box that Yan Huan was carrying in her hand. If this was for me, then I will forgive her. Or else… Hmph! There will be no end of me chastising her!
“It does not matter whether you are a lady or a woman. What were you doing outside so late at night?”
“I went to get this, the waiting time was a little longer than expected.” Yan Huan opened the box and took out two pairs of canvas shoes. Then, she continued, “An old granny personally handmade these. I ordered two pairs for Grandpa, do you think they will fit you?”
She crouched down to help him put them on. After all, she treated Old Master Lu as her own grandfather. Therefore, doing that felt natural and was not uncomfortable for her.
A loved one or a relative should be someone that always kept you in his or her heart. They did not care about how much money one spent on gifts for them. After all, one’s heart would be in the gift. Where one’s heart was, the love would there too.
Old Master Lu was very advanced in age now. Naturally, his legs were weaker than before. Although he usually seemed full of life as a dragon and vigorous as a tiger, his legs would actually wear out and swell if he walked too much.
Thus, he could not wear normal shoes now. He preferred to move around in his wheelchair, not because he loved faking his fragility. It was simply due to his legs swelling after walking for too long.
Once she was done helping Old Master Lu change into his new pair of shoes, she gently knocked on the front of the shoes. It’s just nice, it’s neither too big or too small for his feet.
“If Grandpa likes it, I will order a few more pairs from the granny. However, you would have to wait for some time as handmade shoes are crafted purely by hand. Nowadays, people who make these are few and far between.
Of course, Yan Huan did not know how and could not make these herself.
“It’s good.” Old Master Lu no longer pursued the subject of Yan Huan returning late. Although he had a deadpan expression, it was clear as day that he absolutely adored his new pair of shoes. It was extremely difficult to find these shoes as they were very rare, he simply could not find anyone that knew how to make them.
It would be excellent when he wore these shoes to do Tai Chi and play chess. He could not wait to see his elderly friends green with envy over his new footwear.
Old Master Lu cheerfully went to boast about his shiny new shoes to the security guard and the housekeeper. Yan Huan sighed in relief when she realized she did not have to endure his scolding. Originally, these shoes were presents for his coming birthday. Unfortunately, she would have to rack her brains again to look for new presents for him.
After that, she returned to her room. As she was not shooting any films now, she had unlimited free time. However, she had no idea how she had spent all that leisure time previously as the days swiftly passed, one by one. Was this what people call the drunken stupor?
She laid down on her bed, not intending to eat her meal. After all, she did not feel hungry as she had eaten some food at Liang Chen’s place. Again, she took out her phone and browsed through the photos she had taken earlier today.
She pondered to herself, wondering if she should release the photos to the public. However, if that happened, she was unsure of how vile Best Actor Lu would be in order to get back at her.
She killed the intention after mulling it over. If it were another woman, she would be absolutely merciless. However, as the person involved was that woman Sun Yuhan, she felt a little… a little something about it.
