Chapter 1157 The Time Left for Us in This Life Is Too Short

As soon as Qin Ruan got into the car, he was taken into Huo Yunqian's arms.

Warm thin lips fell on her cheeks that were flushed with embarrassment.

When Qin Ruan was about to break away, Huo Yunji's soft voice sounded: "Go home."

This time Qin Ruan didn't resist, lying obediently in his arms and absorbing the familiar breath.

Thinking of the nearly lifelong entanglement between Ni Shanshan and Chen Jingyi, an old couple, an indescribable sourness welled up in her heart.

Chen Jingyi stood outside the iron gate, watching the Huo family's motorcade disappear into the dusk.

He stood there for a long time before turning around and walking back, his steps steady and heavy.

Ni Shanshan and her daughter Chen Sixing were sitting in the restaurant. They didn't know what the mother and daughter were talking about, and they kept laughing. Chen Jingyi, who had just walked into the hall, heard their happy laughter.

He took off his coat and walked step by step towards his wife and daughter who were laughing and laughing.

Seeing his figure, the smile in Ni Shanshan's eyes became a little stronger, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes became more prominent when she smiled.

No matter how well maintained they are, they cannot stop the passage of time and they will eventually grow old.

As if nothing had happened, Ni Shanshan waved to her lover who had been with her for half her life: "We are waiting for you. Come quickly, let's eat."

Chen Jingyi's wise eyes looked at the silver hair on her head, and her heart suddenly felt like being stabbed hard by a needle. Compared with the tragic experience back then, it couldn't be said to be painful, but it was extremely uncomfortable.

He didn't look at his daughter and walked straight towards Ni Shanshan.

Ni Shanshan, who was sitting on the seat, felt the moisture coming from her neck at the moment she was hugged. Her wise eyes, clouded and weathered, revealed the confusion and panic of a girl.

"Jingyi, what's wrong with you?"

She asked with an uneasy tone, and the first thing that came to her mind was whether the enemy from back then still slipped through the net.

If this is really the case, she doesn't mind planning again and helping her sweetheart.

Seeing that his parents were close, Chen Sixing waved to Mrs. Zhang who was busy in the restaurant.

Mrs. Zhang put down the tableware in her hands, her gloomy eyes stared at Chen Jingyi and Ni Shanshan embracing each other, and her somewhat stiff face showed relief.

She nodded to Chen Sixing, bowed her head and left the restaurant, leaving this huge space to a couple who had been waiting for decades to reveal their true love.

Ni Shanshan didn't get a response for a long time, so she reached out and patted the arm around her shoulder: "You are so old, why are you still doing this in front of your children? You are not ashamed."

She pretended to be fine and complained in a relaxed tone, but deep down she was worried.

Chen Jingyi raised his red eyes, with a warm and elegant smile on his face. He caressed Ni Shanshan's aging face, and sighed softly in his voice: "I haven't taken you out for so many years, so what's left in this life?" The time given to us is too short, let’s go out and see the world together, right?”

Ni Shanshan stared at Chen Jingyi with inquiring eyes and asked softly: "Why do you think one thing is the other thing?"

Chen Jingyi did not avoid his gaze. He rubbed his wife's face with the back of his hand: "I want to give you some good memories."

Ni Shanshan seemed to be unaccustomed to his so exposed tenderness, her eyes drooped: "I listen to you, but no one cares about the flowers and plants at home."

Chen Jingyi: "Sister-in-law Zhang is here."

He lowered his head and kissed his wife's forehead, which was covered with fine lines.

That night, after Ni Shanshan lay on the bed and fell asleep, Chen Jingyi put on her coat and left the room quietly. He went downstairs to Mrs. Zhang's room.

The other party was sitting by the bed, well-dressed, as if he had known that Chen Jingyi was coming.

When the door was pushed open from the outside, she stood up, an almost imperceptible smile appearing in her gloomy eyes.

Chen Jingyi closed the door, strode to Mrs. Zhang, hugged her and said, "I have worked hard for you for so many years."

Mrs. Zhang raised her hand and patted his shoulder, sighing softly: "It's not hard, Ali is gone, and those beasts from back then are all dead. It's time for us to let go."

Chen Jingyi: "I know, I know everything, but I regret it. I shouldn't have promised Ali, and I shouldn't have made Ashan suffer this month."

Sister-in-law Zhang paused slightly as she patted his shoulder, and said in a hoarse voice: "That was Ali's last wish. Even though she knew that Ashan was not an enemy, she couldn't deal with Ashan's indifference back then. That child was spoiled by you."

Chen Jingyi let go of Sister Zhang, took two steps back, and looked at Sister Zhang who looked slightly younger than him: "Sister, I regret it, I never knew what Ah Shan did.

I thought it would be fine as long as I protected her and kept Ali from causing trouble to her, but she was still involved after all and did those things without me knowing. "

He stared closely at Mrs. Zhang's eyes and asked in a deep voice: "Sister, do you know what Ashan did? I want to hear the truth."

Mrs. Zhang looked away and said calmly: "I know."

Chen Jingyi's lips trembled slightly and she asked aloud: "Why, why do you want to involve her?!"

Sister-in-law Zhang said without raising her head: "Ashan is a kind and affectionate child. There are some things that you don't need to explain to me. You should know it yourself."

Yes, Ni Shanshan has always liked Chen Jingyi.

She can do anything for him.

No matter the murder, she knew Chen Jingyi was the murderer, but she still married him without hesitation.

The guilt she felt towards her sister and her feelings for him had been tormenting her.

Chen Jingyi has been lying next to her for more than thirty years, but he doesn't know the bitter consequences she got from this marriage.

She was really willing to go through life and death for him. She was such a kind girl, but she was afraid of blood when she was young, but now she dared to kill for him.

Chen Jingyi closed his eyes tightly and rubbed his temples. The fine lines at the corners of his eyes were rubbed terribly.

He took a deep breath and apologized to Mrs. Zhang: "Sister, I'm sorry."

Mrs. Zhang touched her hair. She looked in the mirror these past few days and found that she had white hair.

Facing her junior brother's apology, she smiled faintly: "Just think about it, that girl who came during the day is capable. She has already figured out who you and I are, and I thought we were doomed today.

Righteous mystical practitioners like them always hate evil, and she can let us go, which shows that the things we did are excusable. After struggling for most of our lives, it’s time to take a break. You guys will live a good life in the future, and it’s time for me to go back to the mountain. "

Chen Jingyi showed reluctance and said to stay: "Sister, please stay. Ashan is so smart, I'm afraid she already knew that our relationship is not simple."

Sister-in-law Zhang: "I know, I know, I have been out for so many years, and I also want to go back and see my disciples and disciples. Our Miao witch and Gu masters are withering away. I want to train a few more disciples while I still have a few decades left to live."

Knowing that she couldn't keep him, Chen Jingyi pursed her lips in displeasure: "When will sister leave?"

Mrs. Zhang pointed to the suitcase in the corner that had already been packed.

"Leaving tonight."

When Chen Sixing woke up, the Chen family had changed.

The family's servant, Mrs. Zhang, left.

Her parents also boarded a plane to fly abroad early in the morning, and before leaving, they gave her an important task - to take care of the flowers and plants at home.
