Feng Qing was determined not to give Sheng Sibai another chance to harass Jian Jiaojiao, so she sent Jian Jiaojiao back to the Feng family's old mansion.
Feng Qing hired several bodyguards to guard the outside of the house to prevent Sheng Sibai from coming again when she was away. And the maid at home could accompany Jian Jiaojiao. It was simply a win - win situation.
Sheng Yan, who only knew that Feng Qing had sent Jian Jiaojiao away and was caught off - guard by this news, also began to feel embarrassed.
"Where on earth did you send Jian Jiaojiao? You have to let her and my elder brother clarify things."
Sheng Yan still felt sorry for Sheng Sibai. He thought it would be better if he could persuade Feng Qing. However, Feng Qing remained unmoved and even rolled her eyes at him twice.
"If you ask me about Jian Jiao again, don't talk to me. I won't tell you." After a pause, she added, "Moreover, tell Sheng Sibai to give up as soon as possible. How can he have the nerve to feel aggrieved after doing such heartless things? I really don't know where he gets such audacity."
"My elder brother is still relatively young. It's inevitable that he is not so considerate in handling things, but he really likes Jian Jiaojiao."
Sheng Yan still tirelessly explained for Sheng Sibai. Feng Qing just glared at him directly.
"Sheng Sibai is young? He is actually older than me..."
Feng Qing suddenly stopped when she was talking. She had always overlooked this matter before. Since Sheng Sibai was older than her, it meant that in the relationship between her mother and Sheng Qingran, the one who got out of it first was Sheng Qingran.
Or even worse, when Sheng Qingran was with Sheng Yan's mother, he was still having an ambiguous relationship with her mother.
But no matter how you look at it, Sheng Qingran was a scumbag!
Feng Qing suddenly fell silent and then suddenly got angry. Her mood changed so quickly that Sheng Yan beside her was caught off - guard.
Even though she was standing right in front of him, he seemed unable to keep up with her train of thought.
"What's wrong with you?" Sheng Yan asked tentatively, afraid that Feng Qing's sudden anger was because of him.
Feng Qing just shook her head and didn't intend to tell him. "It's okay. I'll go back to the office first."
After saying that, Feng Qing walked towards her office. From the moment she finished speaking to the moment she closed the door, the whole process took a full minute, and she didn't even look up at him for a single second.
Sheng Yan was completely at a loss and didn't know what else he could do. He could only stupidly accept what had happened. Why... did it feel like Feng Qing had a lot of secrets from him after they made up this time?
Forget it, forget it. Sheng Yan slapped his own face. Maybe he was just overthinking.
They had just made up, and they shouldn't casually suspect each other and hurt their feelings.
The first thing Feng Qing did after returning to the office was to find the email Qi Zhicheng had sent her. After re - confirming it, she found something.
The date recorded when her mother completely broke up with Sheng Qingran was the period when her mother had met her father through a blind date and got married to him in a flash. According to the timeline, Sheng Sibai was almost born at that time.
'Bang -'
Feng Qing pounded the table hard. Damn Sheng Qingran! He wanted to have his cake and eat it too. He was the one who betrayed her mother first. Why did he still target her father after her mother got married to her father?
Her father met her mother through a blind date, fell in love with her, and then got married to her. He was definitely better than this scumbag who still wanted to cheat during marriage. Sheng Qingran was just relying on the power of the Sheng Group.
Just wait. She would surely make Sheng Qingran regret. Regret how he had treated her mother and father.
Feng Qing never took the initiative to tell Sheng Yan her thoughts. If Sheng Yan didn't notice and didn't ask her, she could really keep silent.
"Feng Qing, you seem unhappy recently. Is something wrong? Are you still worried about Jian Jiaojiao?"
Feng Qing glanced at him. For a moment, many thoughts flashed through her mind, but she killed them all.
She reached out her hand to touch his face, feeling his face that didn't look much like Sheng Qingran's.
"I'm fine. I just miss my parents a bit. I suddenly realize that you don't look much like your father. Do you look like your mother?"
Sheng Yan held her hand and pulled her into his arms. He kissed her forehead first, hoping to ease her mood.
"I'm still here. If you miss your parents, I can accompany you to visit them."
"Actually, I do look more like my mother. Many people have said so since I was a child."
Feng Qing leaned her head on his chest and smiled gently. "Then your mother must be very beautiful."
After Feng Qing said this, Sheng Yan began to try hard to recall what his mother looked like, and found that it was already very blurred.
"If you hadn't mentioned her today, I wouldn't have noticed that I was almost forgetting what she looked like."
Sheng Yan's mother died during a difficult childbirth. He had never had his mother since he was born. In the process of growing up, he only saw his mother's photos when he was very young. Later, there wasn't even a single photo of his mother at home.
"Do you have a photo of your mother? I really want to see how beautiful she is."
Sheng Yan shook his head. "I can't remember clearly. There are very few photos of her at home. The one I've seen the most is the one on her tombstone. She looks like an ordinary and delicate woman. Maybe she's not as beautiful as you imagine."
Feng Qing also gently patted his chest to comfort him. "Can you take me to see your mother?"
Sheng Yan didn't refuse. He just kissed her forehead again. "Okay. Let me make some arrangements."
***
It was already spring when they went to visit Sheng Yan's mother. But the cold wind in early spring was no different from that in winter. It was like a knife scraping against Feng Qing's face. Especially the wind in the cemetery was extremely strong, making her face ache.
Sheng Yan took the scarf and wrapped it around Feng Qing's neck, covering part of her face to protect her from the cold wind.
Feng Qing pulled the scarf down a bit. "Isn't this impolite?"
"How could it be? If my mother could see, she would probably be more worried that you would catch a cold." Sheng Yan pulled the scarf up again and then led Feng Qing to his mother's tombstone.
Sheng Yan was talking to the tombstone, while Feng Qing's eyes were always fixed on the photo on the tombstone.
She did look very delicate. Just from the photo, one could feel that she was very gentle. She should be a good person.
But what made Feng Qing clench her fists and feel unforgivable was that there was also a mole on her face, exactly the same as the one on her mother's face.
That mole was right under her left eye. With her facial features, it made her look more pathetic.
Maybe it was destined. Her whole life being deceived by Sheng Qingran, how could it not be pathetic?
"Mom, this is Feng Qing. She's my girlfriend now. I love her very much. I hope that you in heaven can bless us to always be well. It would be best if we could get married soon."
When he said the last sentence, Sheng Yan deliberately lowered his voice, but Feng Qing still heard it.
Feng Qing reached out and pushed him. "What are you talking nonsense about?"
