Coming out of the police station, facing the dazzling sunshine, Xia Yanxi's memories flew back to a long time ago.
Every moment of getting along with Xu Lingwei and Aunt Xu is like a slow movie, slowly replaying in my mind.
Xu Lingwei's resentment and jealousy towards her have been accumulated over many years. And she never noticed it.
She never has any doubts about people she trusts. If she could have discovered Xu Lingwei's inner world earlier, tried to persuade her, and then sought counseling from a psychologist, perhaps the tragedy would not have happened.
Tears burst from his eyes.
From now on, she must learn to know and identify people.
…
When Xia Yanxi returned to Shengyuan Villa, Qiao Yanli and the old lady had already returned.
Shengyuan Villa was originally built by Qiao Yanli for the retirement of two elderly people. When he took the old lady to visit, she obviously had a smile in her eyes.
The old lady held the eldest grandson's hand and said, "Yanli, you are such a filial child."
Qiao Yanli was about to say something, but when he saw Xia Yanxi coming back, there was tenderness in his dark eyes, "Grandma, your grandson-in-law is back."
When the old lady heard this, her expression immediately became majestic, she pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.
When Qiao Yanli saw this, he lowered his voice and said, "Grandma, give Yan Xi a chance. After being in contact with her for a long time, you will know that she is better than any woman."
The old lady snorted coldly, "Better than grandma?"
Qiao Yanli looked at the old lady who sometimes looked like a child. He put his arm around her shoulders and slightly hooked his thin lips, "Of course, grandma is the most powerful and unique woman in the world!"
The sharp look in the old lady's eyes softened somewhat, "That's more than enough!"
Xia Yanxi saw Qiao Yanli walking over, chatting and laughing with the old lady, and she immediately greeted politely, "Old lady, Yanli."
The old lady glanced at Xia Yanxi lightly, took Qiao Yanli's hand, crossed Xia Yanxi, and said as she walked, "Grandson, will you take grandma to visit somewhere else?"
After Qiao Yanli nodded, he turned back to look at Xia Yanxi. Xia Yanxi was also looking at him, and their eyes intertwined. She winked at him playfully, indicating that she was not angry and would not mind the old lady's cold attitude. He received her signal and nodded in relief.
…
After they walked away, Xia Yanxi arrived upstairs.
During the few days that Qiao Yanli was hospitalized, she also asked the doctor to prescribe medicine for her. Fortunately, Aunt Xu didn't give her the medicine for a long time. Otherwise, even if she takes the medicine now, she will not be able to recover immediately.
She went to Aunt Xu's room and packed up all Aunt Xu's things.
Diandian ran over wagging her tail. Xia Yanxi hugged Diandian and looked around the room, with uncomfortable tears welling up in her eyes.
After staying in the room for a while, Xia Yanxi put down her little bit. She walked to the balcony, put her hands on the railing, and looked at the beautiful scenery around the villa, feeling melancholy in her heart.
After an unknown amount of time, a pair of slender and powerful arms suddenly stretched out.
The familiar fresh scent also hit my nose. She covered the back of his hands entwined around her waist and looked sideways at the man behind her, "Why don't you spend more time with grandma?"
"She was tired and went back to her room to rest." Qiao Yanli looked at Xia Yanxi's red and swollen eyes, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Have you cried?"
Xia Yanxi nodded, "I feel uncomfortable thinking about some things in the past," she said, smiling sweetly at him, "It's okay now."
