Chapter 328: Master, Have You Been Doing Well These Years?
There was no problem that food could not solve.
Shen Qianshu transferred the food on the takeout boxes into plates and took the soup out. She had a strong taste for food while he liked things to be bland. Almost all the food that she picked were his favorites. On the dining table, it was really silent, and nobody spoke. There was only the sound of chopsticks and bowls hitting each other. It was light and faint, and it sounded a little cold.
After they had finished the meal and packed up, it was still silent. Shen Qianshu wanted to initiate a conversation, but she felt that she could not help herself. She was full and feeling some food coma. She wanted to sleep. While Ye Ling went out to pick up a phone call, she fell asleep on the couch. When he returned from the balcony, he saw her sleeping on the sofa. There were obvious dark eye circles around her petite and pale face. She must not have had a good night of rest. When he thought of her fearful look, Ye Ling walked over and sat beside her.
He rubbed her pink face lightly with his fingers.
Shen Qianshu, when will you open up to me?
When will you stop fearing me?
How would he not have understood that no matter how well you put a broken mirror back together, it would not be the same? But no matter what, it was impossible to let go of her. Even if she feared him, she could only be bounded to him for life.
Ye Ling carried her into the bedroom.
She dreamed of herself seven years ago. When she was roaming around in Paris, studying, going to various shows and competitions, bringing Tong Hua to the hospital… getting into heated arguments with people over a few Euros… when she brought Tong Hua along with her to great sales at the supermarkets to get groceries.
Over the years, life had been tough for her. She carried huge boulders on top of her small shoulders and bore a lot of stress. Yet, she was still full of life. Two years after her child’s death, she no longer looked tiresome all the time.
In her dreams, she held Tong Hua’s hand and smiled at Ye Ling as she spoke.
