Mei Fang hurriedly ran out of the sales office lobby, and then saw Lin Youxi leaning against Mei Fang's car door, as if waiting for him.
"You didn't run very far this time. You've regressed, Youxi!"
"I'm old, and I can't run anymore."
Lin Youxi smiled at Mei Fang and seemed to have recovered from her recent emotional outburst.
"What are you talking about... You are only in your early 20s."
"But after my birthday this month I will turn 20, and will be 21."
Lin Youxi sighed, and then said with emotion, "Why does it feel like time has passed so quickly? When I met Ah Fang, I was still such a little girl, and now I have grown up so much."
"We've all grown up, but Youxi has changed a lot in both temperament and inner qualities..."
Lin Youxi leaned against Mei Fang's car, one hand on her waist, and posed in a somewhat seductive manner, "So, do you like me now? Do you like me or not?"
"Of course I like it. If this weren't outside..."
Today, Lin Youxi wore a dark leather coat, a short white sweater and a black leather skirt, and high-heeled Martin boots. Even the thickened silk stockings could show the slenderness of her legs.
Her dressing style definitely makes her look much more mature than people of the same age. This is also the mature style of dressing that she gradually got used to after entering college.
"Not outside—just, what about it?"
Lin Youxi gently pinched Mei Fang's nose, and then Mei Fang unlocked the car and let Lin Youxi get in and sit on the passenger seat.
Then Mei Fang sat in the driver's seat and started the engine. Lin Youxi tidied her appearance in the vanity mirror on the passenger seat sun visor. While tidying up, she asked Mei Fang:
"You know where I want to go? I'm driving right now."
"No matter where we go, I'm taking you to relax."
"This answer doesn't sound like you understand me enough, or love me enough."
Mei Fang smiled at Lin Youxi, "So, do you want to go to the cemetery now?"
Lin Youxi nodded and smiled, "This is the way to ask if you love me enough."
When Xiaolin Youxi was a child, she would think of telling her mother whenever she felt wronged. However, she did not have the courage to go to the cemetery alone when she was in elementary school, so Mei Fang took her there.
The more important ones were an argument with Mei Fang in the fourth grade of elementary school, and another one in the first grade of junior high school over Lin Guochuan's remarriage. Mei Fang was present at both times when Lin Youxi confessed.
However, after entering high school, Lin Youxi became gradually independent. After the threesome was confirmed, nothing could stump her. At that time, even when Lin Youxi came to visit the grave, she only came to see her biological mother and report to her about her recent situation.
"Afang, do you remember what I said to you when we first went to the cemetery?"
"Which sentence did you say?"
"That's right, people die three times in total..."
"Oh, remember, remember!"
Mei Fang said softly, "I still remember you told me that being forgotten is the real death. You didn't want to forget your mother, so you came to visit her every year... You said that when you grow up, get married and have children, you will bring your children with you."
"Hate it, I remember it so clearly."
Lin Youxi pinched Mei Fang, and then continued:
"In fact, the happier I am now, the more I think about my mother. I don't want to leave her there alone, so every time I come back, I always think that I should spend more time with my mother. I should spend more time with my mother."
"Yeah, I understand."
Mei Fang and Lin Youxi drove to the cemetery, stopped in the parking lot, and bought some yellow paper, incense sticks and bouquets at the small shop at the entrance of the cemetery.
On the way to her mother's tombstone, Lin Youxi stretched lazily.
"But after talking for such a long time, you didn't ask me about what happened today. Aren't you going to blame me?"
"Blame? What's there to blame..."
Lin Youxi tilted her head, "I said such harsh words to my father and Yuanyuan, it is reasonable for you to say something to me, right?"
"It's not entirely your fault in this matter... Let's consider it from our own perspectives..."
Mei Fang shook his head. "I don't think Uncle Lin is right, because you have seen most clearly what kind of relatives you have since you were a child."
"And I can understand your opinion of Yuanyuan. You've always envied Yuanyuan for having such a happy family since you were a child. If you let her get involved in topics related to your family, you'll just feel that she can't possibly understand your feelings. You're also afraid that she'll say something to persuade you to be magnanimous, right?"
Lin Youxi nodded. "If Yuanyuan told me to be more open-minded and let go of the hatred in the past, I would really have a problem with her and even dislike her a little."
"Although Yuanyuan is simple, she is definitely not a girl who doesn't understand the ways of the world... You see, Huang Lian didn't forgive him before, right? She didn't ask you to forgive your uncle in the end, because she could always understand your hatred for your uncle. She also told me before that she hoped your uncle would stay in prison forever."
"… "
Lin Youxi stood there thinking for a while, Mei Fang stood aside and watched her, and finally Lin Youxi patted her cheek:
"Well, you're right... I underestimated Yuanyuan's love for me. I shouldn't have thought that way. I'm still in a relationship with her, but I don't trust her. I'm going to apologize to her when I get back later."
"What about your father?"
"I won't apologize to my father, he deserves to be hated by me."
Lin Youxi groaned and said, "This is my attitude. What can you do to me, Ah Fang?"
Mei Fang said as she gave Lin Youxi a big hug.
"Of course, I fully support my wife!"
"Hmm... It's rare that you have this kind of heart, little Fangzi. I am already very satisfied."
Lin Youxi smiled and said to Mei Fang, "You still have to stand on my dad's side. Just try to please my dad. After all, she is my dad. I can be willful, but she is not yours yet. Do you understand?"
"I know, I know. Anyway, I say different things to different people."
"So when you see my mother, are you going to tell her that you want to have a threesome with me and Yuanyuan?"
Lin Youxi hugged Mei Fang and said, "If my mother doesn't agree, she might come out and scare you."
"Then I'm not afraid either."
Mei Fang kissed Lin Youxi on the forehead. "I'm not afraid to see your mother. I'm going to bring her to see you. Although Aunt Liang is very kind to you, you must also want to talk to your mother, right?"
Lin Youxi listened to Mei Fang's words and buried herself in Mei Fang's arms.
Lin Youxi, who is aloof in front of others, has always been Mei Fang's little wife.
The two of them hugged each other tenderly for a while, and then came to the grave of Lin Youxi's biological mother.
“Her smile in the photos is contagious no matter how many times I see it.”
Lin Youxi said with emotion, "In fact, I have always felt that my biological mother might be a person with a personality very similar to Yuanyuan since I was a child, otherwise I would not like our Yuanyuan so much."
Mei Fang started to clean up the tombstone. Just as he was about to clear away the tributes and bouquets, he suddenly said in surprise:
"These things seem quite new. Has anyone come to pay respect to your mother before? Your father and Aunt Liang probably didn't come. Are there any other relatives here? Or—"
Mei Fang looked at Lin Youxi who kept his head down silently, his fists clenched tightly, and his body trembled constantly.
I really want to exert more strength, but it feels like I'm punching cotton.
Lin Youxi's mother has been dead for almost 20 years, and her grandparents have also passed away long ago. In the end, the only person who might still remember her mother is that man.
The uncle who brought misfortune to Lin Youxi.
Mei Fang gently comforted Lin Youxi: "Can I help you remove these things?"
“No need… just leave it there.”
While paying homage to her mother, Lin Youxi seemed a little silent. After she and Mei Fang placed the offerings, she lit the incense sticks and began to kowtow and pray for blessings.
"Mom, I brought my boyfriend to see you."
"I didn't have time to tell you during the memorial ceremony last year, but Yuanyuan and I are planning to share our boyfriend, Fang."
"I know it's hard for you as a mother to understand, but... it is what it is."
"Afang and Yuanyuan are the two most important people in my life. My happiness comes from their long-term companionship, so I don't want to be separated from either of them."
"I know there will be a lot of resistance... but I will also work hard to overcome these difficulties together."
Lin Youxi closed her eyes and talked to her mother in a rambling voice, while Mei Fang was kowtowing and talking:
"Aunt You, although it may be a little shameful to say this, I still hope you can trust Youxi to me... I have made up my mind since I was very young to protect her and Yuanyuan for the rest of her life, and I will continue to do so now."
After he kowtowed, he stood up and saw Lin Youxi staring at the photo of his mother in front of the tombstone, as if he was mumbling a conversation to himself. It was a very everyday scene.
"Mom, regarding the grandchildren... you don't have to wait too long. In two or three years, I can bring my little grandchild and granddaughter to see you!"
"Don't make promises to our mother casually!"
"Hehe... You just called her mom without her consent!"
"That's different!"
Before Mei Fang could finish his words, Lin Youxi suddenly covered his mouth.
"Oh, my mom also said something else."
"What?"
"She said that although her brother was a useless person, he would come back to visit her on the anniversary of his death and before the New Year. He also told her that he would repent this year—"
Mei Fang was slightly stunned when he heard this and said, "So, Youxi, what you mean is—"
"If it's just a visit, you can just let my dad go."
Lin Youxi thought for a moment and said, "It's just that I'm afraid my dad will be soft-hearted again and make him unrealistic promises."
"That's no problem." Mei Fang patted his chest and smiled, "I'll accompany your father to visit your uncle on your behalf, right?"
"Good husband."
Lin Youxi, "Let's sleep together outside tonight. I'll take good care of you."
"Ah? That's not necessary..."
Lin Youxi said as she gently covered Mei Fang's face, "Did you... sneak away with Yuanyuan today... while I was away? Hmm?"
"Ah, that's—"
"Then let's test the water in the car first. If the amount is not enough to satisfy me, you have to come a few more times."
"Don't say such shameless things in front of your mother!"
The task of visiting Youxi's uncle was given to Lin Guochuan and Mei Fang. When they met Youxi's uncle You Xiaobing again, what they saw was not a decadent smoking man, but a thin uncle who looked quite energetic.
Although You Xiaobing's residence was quite simple, he still welcomed Lin Guochuan and Mei Fang warmly when he saw them.
After two and a half years of summarizing and reflecting on himself, You Xiaobing finally realized that he had done many things in the past that let Youxi's family down. His blood-sucking behavior betrayed his promise to his sister to take good care of his niece Lin Youxi.
When asked about his external debt situation, we learned from the conversation that You Xiaobing avoided external online loan debts by going to jail this time, and many of those illegal high-interest online loan platforms have been wiped out, which also means that You Xiaobing's burden has been lightened a lot.
Mei Fang came with gifts and 20,000 yuan in the name of Youxi's friend.
At first, You Xiaobing was very resistant and said he didn't need it. Later, Mei Fang explained that this was also to shut up the public opinion. You Xiaobing reluctantly accepted it and said that he would return it later. He also asked Mei Fang to help apologize to Lin Youxi:
"I was wrong about everything that happened before, and I don't expect to get Youxi's forgiveness. From now on... you don't have to come to see me specially. I hope she is safe and happy, and lives a smooth life."
You Xiaobing said with a smile and tears in his eyes, "Also, if I had a chance to do it again, I really hope I could... Oh, how could that be possible? Never mind."
After saying goodbye to You Xiaobing, Lin Guochuan sat in Mei Fang's car. Mei Fang said with some emotion, "Uncle Youxi looks much more stable than before. I wonder if he has been training in there..."
"In fact, the soldiers like this now are the familiar soldiers I knew at the beginning."
"Is that so..."
"Youxi's biological mother and I have always hoped that he would be able to return to his original appearance one day, but it's a pity that we have only seen this opportunity now."
Lin Guochuan shook his head helplessly, "It was DB who ruined him..."
Everyone is likely to make mistakes, but not everyone has the opportunity to correct and fix their mistakes.
The damage that has been done cannot be repaired or healed.
No amount of apologies or forgiveness will help.
The only option is to start over.
But how many people in this world are there like Mei Fang who have the chance to start over
While Mei Fang was feeling grateful for her good fortune, Lin Guochuan at the side started talking to her thoughtfully.
"Ah Fang, Uncle Lin wants to ask you a question..."
"You say."
"You, Youxi, and Yuanyuan have always had a good relationship since childhood, but now all three of you are single... Can you tell Uncle Lin about your plans for the future?"
