Chapter 1442 Another Year has Passed 3
When Xi Xiaye asked that question, Shen Wenna fell silent.
After a while, she replied, “When you reach our age, you’ll understand that we don’t talk about love anymore. We just stay on and live our lives together. You know, I’ve told you since you were young that like me, some women aren’t made to just live their whole lives with their me. If I had cried and fought with your father, things may not have ended like this now.
“Xiaye, no matter what happens, as women, we have to stay calm. Our mentality is also equally important. I hope you’ll try your best to be an intellectual and intelligent woman.”
Although Shen Wenna had spoken about these thoughts to her before, she had never really instilled them in Xi Xiaye.
“Especially when you get older, as a woman, you should have your own space and a life of your own. Women can’t care as much as what you’re doing now. Although I know that Ah Chen treats you well.. .”
“He’s not the same as Father and the other guys. I’m not you either, so I do believe in him. He’s a good man,” Xi Xiaye defended her man before Shen Wenna could finish speaking.
Shen Wenna smiled as she merely listened. She watched her daughter frown in dissatisfaction and said calmly, “I didn’t say anything about him. Look at you being so protective!”
“I just can’t stand it when people say that he’s not a good man,” Xi Xiaye murmured.
As they said, beauty was in the eye of the beholder. “I remember you telling me about the qualities of an ideal husband before. In fact, he fits the bill perfectly. He’s a gentleman who is also like a close friend, a father, and a brother to me. He can give me a sense of security that no one else ever has. Sometimes, I wish I can just keep him by my side at all times.”
Shen Wenna laughed out loud when she heard that, and she gently said, “Your father and I were like this in our early years. You love him deeply, Xiaye, and he loves you just as much. You can tell whether a man loves you or not from the way he looks at you. Relationships that grow gradually are actually the strongest. I wouldn’t have wanted both of you to have a wild, passionate relationship right from the start, or else, after going through long periods of learning and maturing, many of your initial perceptions of each other will change.”
“Actually, it’s also because I’m lucky. If it was another man, it may not have been like this.”
“Your temperament has changed a lot after marriage. For instance, your stubbornness.”
“Well, that’s also because I’m older now...”
“True, we’re all mothers now.”
Xi Xiaye could finally talk to Shen Wenna about topics like these naturally, and the relationship between mother and daughter became much more harmonious.
After spending time together for a while, there was a call from the Mu family, asking if they were on their way back, so they finally got up and left.
“What did you and your mother talk about in the kitchen just now? I didn’t know that washing a few dishes and chopsticks could take half an hour,” Mu Yuchen asked the woman beside him while playing with his son, who was sitting on his lap, as they were in the car back to the Mu family’s old residence.
Xi Xiaye gently held her elder son, Mu Zirui, with her slender arms while fixing his cufflinks with one hand. When she heard the question, she tilted her head and glanced at him. “It’s a secret between us women.”
He looked at her with a smirk and said, “You don’t even need to tell me because you and your mom always talk about Father, me, or Grandfather. When your mother came out just now, she had this look on her face, so I guess you must have been talking about me.”
Master Mu’s jet black eyes looked like they were full of wisdom, and sometimes his attentiveness could be quite admirable.
“It’s scary that I can never hide what’s on my mind. Zirui, you’d better not show too much emotion in front of your father in the future. He’ll figure out everything that’s in your heart, and there will be no secrets and privacy,” Xi Xiaye said.
“Father doesn’t have X-ray vision, so how can he see what you’re thinking about, Mother?” Little Mu Zirui curiously turned to look at Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye as he raised his head. His gaze wandered between them.
“Because Father and Mother can read each other’s minds.” Mu Yuchen grinned while stretching his big hand out and touching Mu Zirui’s head.
“Read each other’s minds?” Mu Zirui asked after thinking for a while.
As the night crept in quietly, the empty streets of City Z were immersed in bright lights.
City Z was no longer caught up in the hustle and bustle of the New Year. It had become quiet now. Since it was New Year’s Eve, every household was probably having their reunion dinner at home.
It was evident that everyone had gone back to celebrate the New Year as most of the shops on both sides of the streets were closed. It was certainly difficult to find a place just to have dinner.
Qi Lei drove the car aimlessly, not knowing where he could go. It was supposed to be very lively during the New Year though he had nothing to do with all the festivities.
He drove down the street for a long time, but when he saw the intersection ahead, he immediately turned left out of habit. The library was not too far ahead, so he thought about going in and maybe reading some books to kill time. However, when he got closer to the library, he suddenly remembered that today was New Year’s Eve, thus the library was obviously closed as well.
He raised his head and looked inside. It was dark as he expected with only some shadows and light reflected from the surrounding cars and streetlights.
He sighed in annoyance and sat quietly in the car for a long time. In the end, he could only continue driving forward and turn around at the front intersection.
Traffic was quite pleasant at this time, and it was relatively quiet. There was a park behind the library where people in City Z often went to rest and relax, so the environment was nice and quiet though the traffic on weekdays could be quite busy. If it was not for New Year’s Eve today, there might still be a traffic jam at this hour, but it was now smooth.
After driving for a while, Qi Lei turned the car around skillfully. However, when the car had just passed the pedestrian crossing, a red figure on the stairs in front of a building next to the road immediately caught his eye!
He froze for a moment, then pulled up at the side of the road. He parked under a tree as he wanted to see the figure clearly under the street lights.
Sure enough, with the dim street lamp, he could clearly see the woman coming down the stairs.
She casually wore her long hair up as she was dressed in a red coat, a black bodycon dress, and a pair of black knee-high boots while holding a black briefcase in her hand...
