"Brother, I really don't understand what you want!" Shen Yuqing's lips raised into a smile, full of sarcasm.

Three years ago, he threatened her. Thinking of the kindness she had been raised with since she was a child, she finally had no choice but to compromise in pain.

While compromising, she also told herself in her heart that since she had chosen this path, she would go on no matter how painful it was.

Therefore, from now on, she is purely Shen Shaoting's aunt, and nothing else.

But just when she accepted her fate and finally returned to peace, he insisted on tearing the wound open and adding a pinch of salt.

Shen Jianxiong looked at her and said slowly, "You have always been smart, but why are you so stupid now? Or will you lose your mind impulsively just by mentioning Shaoting?"

The hand hanging by his side gradually tightened, and Shen Yuqing stabilized the rhythm of his breathing: "Just say what you want to say, my brother's thoughts are too deep, I can't guess."

But it is undeniable that Shen Jianxiong's last words really hit her weakness.

"In this case, I'm going to open it up and say that no matter what happens to your relationship with Shaoting in the future, I will never get involved again. Do you understand?"

Hearing this, Shen Yuqing's expression became shocked and she stared straight at Shen Jianxiong: "Brother, do you know what you are talking about now?"

"Of course I know. I have watched you and Shaoting grow up since childhood. It's really good for you to be together. I have experienced too much in the past three years. I have taken everything lightly now. You are still young. I don't want to You have left regrets too early in your life, and I don’t want you to be full of resentment towards me when you look back on it when you are old..."

Smiling softly, Shen Yuqing did not feel the slightest joy in her heart, but instead contained a hint of hatred.

"How good these words would have been three years ago, but now it's too late."

He is married, she is engaged, and she has a husband.

"Even as a father, I have never understood his thoughts, but one thing is for sure. He definitely did not marry because he loved that girl. As long as everything does not reach the final step, it is not too late. He Whether I still have feelings for you or not, you definitely know better than anyone else."

"Things are not that simple at all. There is also my sister-in-law."

Shen Yuqing could never forget how Su Lan lay in front of her, with the blade in her hand scratching her face and the blood flowing out, which was shocking.

Hearing this, Shen Jianxiong said: "Your sister-in-law has a paranoid and sharp temper. You can't do anything to her, but it doesn't mean that Shaoting can't do anything to her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have threatened you and refused to let you do what you did to her." Go tell Shaoting what happened and what you said."

His eyes narrowed slightly, and Shen Yuqing knew that what he said was not wrong.

"Your temperament is too rational and emotional, but you are still a woman. Sometimes you have to be softer, rely on a man's shoulders, and trust him. If you trusted Shaoting in the past, leave those things to him. Dealing with it, what will it be like now?"

"..." She had no words.

"Despite my persistence and your sister-in-law's obstruction, you yourself did not find the most reasonable solution, but chose to compromise with fate. Therefore, it is not only my fault that has caused this situation, but also others. It’s your own fault…”

As he spoke, Shen Jianxiong lowered his head and glanced at the time. It was already ten o'clock.

Standing up, he patted Shen Yuqing on the shoulder and said sincerely, "Actually, people are not afraid of making a wrong step, but they are afraid of making a wrong step every step until the end. There is no turning back. I have said so much, and the most important thing is you." Whatever you think, it’s getting late, let’s rest..."

Shen Jianxiong left, but the words he said before leaving were like a huge stone that hit Shen Yuqing's heart.

Her calm heart became no longer calm. She stood in front of the window and stared at the falling snow on the ground all night...

She thought a lot about the future and relationships, and her head ached slightly when she thought about them.

*********************************I am the cute dividing line************ ************

Back at the military compound, the old lady was already sitting in the living room, watching TV.

Seeing the two people walking in one after another, she asked, "Where did you go today?"

"The Great Wall." Ye Ziqing answered with a smile.

"Anything gained?"

She took out the photo from her wallet and handed it to the old lady, smiling and saying, "Is it beautiful?"

After taking it, the old lady joked, "Are you asking about the scene or the person?"

Ye Ziqing was amused and laughed out loud; "Of course it's the scenery, Minister Mu."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, even she was slightly surprised that it sounded so natural, without any feeling of strangeness or awkwardness.

The old lady put on her reading glasses as her hands moved along the cat lying on her lap; "They are all beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, and the people are even more beautiful. What do you think, Shaoting?"

Shen Shaoting sat on the sofa, his eyes lingering on Bai Xi's blushing but slightly shy cheeks, and then his eyes became deeper, and he opened his mouth and said two words: "General."

"Does this generally refer to scenery or people?" the old lady continued to ask.

"Everything is average..." His voice was low.

Ye Ziqing was not angry, she just stared at him twice. She didn't expect to hear anything good from him anyway, so she asked, "Minister Mu, I'll get you some jujube slices."

The old lady really liked eating jujube slices. She took down two boxes and ate them all in an instant. "Where are you going to go next?"

"Does Minister Mu have any good suggestions?"

"Have you been to Beijing before?"

She shook her head.

"It will snow these two days, so you can go to Yunfoshan Ski Resort first, and then go to the Summer Palace to take a boat ride to see the snow scenery."

Ye Ziqing thought this proposal was good, and she was even more eager to try skiing. As if she thought of something, she looked at Shen Shaoting and said, "Can you ski?"

"Yes..." He looked up at her; "Why do you ask?"

"Of course you're teaching me how to ski," she answered matter-of-factly.

Hearing this, Shen Shaoting narrowed his narrow eyes slightly and looked at her leisurely: "Did I say I want to go?"

"You didn't say it, but you mentioned the honeymoon trip. Could it be that I came to honeymoon alone?" Ye Ziqing retorted unhappily.

Without saying a word, the old lady just looked at the two people talking to each other with shrewd eyes.

Frowning his brows, he tugged his thin lips and glanced sideways at her abdomen: "Mrs. Shen, did you forget that you are pregnant?"

"I almost... almost forgot..." She coughed slightly, feeling a little guilty; "Then I won't go to the Yunfo Mountain Ski Resort and will go directly to the Summer Palace to see the snow scenery."

The old lady slapped her thigh; "Look at my memory. I almost forgot about my little baby. Don't go to the ski resort. You absolutely can't go."

Shen Shaoting showed a little helplessness, and gently touched his brows with his slender fingers.

Afterwards, Ye Ziqing went to the room upstairs to take a shower, and only the old lady and Shen Shaoting were left in the living room.

"How do you feel about that child?" The old lady raised the topic.

His eyes moved slightly, Shen Shaoting said nothing, and just sipped the tea.

Picking up the pillow on the sofa, the old lady threw it at him unceremoniously; "How dare you do this to me in front of you, Minister Mu?"

The pillow hit his forehead. He picked up the pillow with his big hand and said softly, "Minister Mu, it hurts..."

He would only show this side in front of the old lady, a little coquettish and a little rogue.

"It's better to deserve it than to die. Don't try to avoid the problem for me. What kind of thoughts do you have in marrying that child?"

The old lady didn't accept his trick at all; "Do you have any feelings for her? Even a little bit, do you?"

Putting the pillow aside, Shen Shaoting narrowed his eyes slightly and curled his thin lips; "Minister Mu, are you planning to become an emotional expert from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?"

Hearing this, the old lady stepped down hard, causing pain, and Shen Shaoting groaned.

"No matter how rude you are, is this question so difficult to answer?"

"Why is Minister Mu so curious about other people's emotional world..." He frowned and made a few moves. Minister Mu's strength should not be underestimated.

"If you were not my grandson, do you think I would care? That girl is to my liking. She is clean and delicate. She is more than good enough for you."

The old lady said slowly that she had never made a mistake in looking at people. It was Shaoting's blessing that the girl married him.

But she didn't know what Shaoting had in mind for marrying Zi Qing.

She was afraid that Zi Qing would be hurt. If Shaoting still missed Yu Qing in her heart...

"What about Yuqing? Has she truly walked out of your heart, or does she still occupy a place in your heart?"

With his Adam's apple rolling, Shen Shaoting's eyes were deep, his thin lips raised with a chuckle, and he stretched his waist lazily: "Minister Mu, it's already ten o'clock, you should rest."

"Are you deliberately avoiding my topic now, or are you concerned about my body? What will happen to you if Yu Qing appears in front of you again?"

"There is no need to answer this kind of hypothetical question..." He curled his lips and added another sentence at the end; "She has already appeared in front of me..."

Hearing this, the old lady frowned in surprise; "She came back from the United States?"

Shen Shaoting met her eyes and replied with certainty; "Yes."

"what about now?"

"I'm going to Shaanxi County. My dad's assistant secretary. Can Minister Mu's conversation be over? I'm a little sleepy. Good night, Minister Mu, have a good sleep..."

She actually went to Shaanxi County to work as Shen Jianxiong's assistant secretary. When the old lady came to her senses again, Shen Shaoting had already reached the corner of the stairs.

She couldn't help but sigh, what exactly was Shaoting thinking?

She was just afraid, alas...
