Chapter 43: Special Chapter: She with Hypothermia
Shen Ru sat on the edge of the bed and read a book, and recently got an interesting novel, which is a new work that has not yet been published by a great British writer.
Just as she was watching with relish, she heard the sound of the car turning off and stopping outside the window.
Today is the day when his father and brother return to China, and for an import and export project, Shen Ru has not seen his father for almost two months.
As soon as Shen Zhiren entered the mansion, before he took off his coat to the servant, he heard the sound of eagerly going downstairs from upstairs.
Shen Ru was dressed in a white dress, her hair was scattered, and she ran downstairs with her skirt barefoot.
When she saw her father and brother standing in the living room, she immediately threw herself into her brother's arms: "You guys are finally back~"
Shen Zhiren looked at his daughter, his eyes were full of doting and love, he stroked his daughter's hair: "If you haven't eaten well, why have you lost weight, didn't the maid take care of you at home?" ”
"If you're not here, I'll be alone in this mansion." Shen Ru pursed her lips, wrapped her hands around Shen Chengfeng's neck, and said coquettishly: "I feel tasteless when I eat, I miss the sweet and sour pork ribs made by my brother~"
Shen Chengfeng rubbed Shen Ru's head, with a soft color in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll do it for you tonight." ”
Seeing that the relationship between the two brothers and sisters was so good, Shen Zhiren's face was very complicated.
He pulled his daughter off Shen Chengfeng's body: "Ruru, go back to the room and put on the slippers, and you are not afraid of getting hurt if you run barefoot!" ”
After speaking, Shen Zhiren said to Shen Chengfeng again: "You come to the study with me." ”
As soon as he heard that his brother was going to be busy again, Shen Ru was unwilling, so he took Shen Chengfeng's hand and didn't let go.
She complained dissatisfiedly: "I've been busy for two months, and I just came back and have to talk about it......"
"If you are good~" Shen Zhiren always had a smile on his face in front of his daughter, he beckoned to the maid beside him and said, "Go, take the young lady back to the room." ”
The people around him did so, and Shen Ru didn't do it, so he grimaced and ran away.
The two entered the study one after the other, and Shen Chengfeng followed in the back, habitually closing the door.
"Dad, didn't we negotiate that project with each other, and are there other things?"
Shen Chengfeng sat on the chair with a serious expression, and he stared at Shen Chengfeng with sharp eyes: "Don't talk about work, talk about you." ”
"......" Shen Chengfeng frowned slightly, his eyes were a little evasive, "Dad, I don't understand." ”
"You should know that I am not against you falling in love, but I also want you to be clear about your own identity."
Shen Zhiren paused for a moment and said in an accentuated tone, "Say it yourself, who are you!" ”
Shen Chengfeng was a little stunned, but quickly reacted, lowered his head and whispered: "I am Shen Chengfeng, my father's adopted son." ”
"Over the years, I have not only regarded you as an adopted son, but also as my own"
Shen Zhiren was dissatisfied with his answer, and continued, "You are the eldest son of the Bo Mansion, and I am also the son of Shen Zhiren, and my career will be handed over to you in the future, do you understand?" ”
"Yes, I know how good my father is to me." Shen Zhiren replied.
"No, you don't understand." Shen Zhiren was silent for a moment, "If you want to be my son, you shouldn't be entangled with Ruru." ”
Hearing this, Shen Chengfeng completely understood.
"You think I can't see anything between the two of you?"
Shen Zhiren's voice was tepid, "You can only inherit everything from me if I am Shen Zhiren's son, I hope you can make a choice and break off your thoughts." ”
Shen Chengfeng didn't dare to raise his head, and his shoulders trembled slightly.
His father's words made him at a loss, he had long known that with Shen Zhiren in the middle, he and Shen Ru would inevitably not be able to stay together.
He already knew the stakes involved, but he couldn't let go of Shen Ru, so he pretended to be confused and delayed the matter so far.
Shen Zhiren noticed Shen Chengfeng's reaction and couldn't bear it, but he had to be ruthless: "I have to see the results in two months, otherwise I can only arrange a marriage for Ruru in advance." ”
Hearing this, Shen Chengfeng's face was embarrassed, and the hope in his heart was completely extinguished.
He didn't want to be separated from Shen Ru, let alone see Shen Ru marry other men.
He figured it out, instead of losing her, it was better to accompany Shen Ru as an elder brother, and it would be considered that his wish would be fulfilled.
"I see."
Shen Chengfeng promised, "I will let her break her mind." ”
Coming to the end of the third floor, standing at the door of Shen Ru's room, Shen Chengfeng did not raise his feet to enter.
Shen Ru was lying on the window looking out at the scenery, she was dressed in white, and the wind blew through her slender and silky hair, exuding bursts of fragrance.
"As such." Shen Chengfeng walked in, no expression on his face.
"You're here to ride the wind~" Shen Ru stepped forward with a smile and immediately wrapped his arms around his waist, "I miss you so much." ”
I thought I would get a response from my lover, but in the next second, Shen Ru's hand was taken off by Shen Chengfeng from his waist.
"Ruru, let's separate......" Shen Chengfeng looked into Shen Ru's eyes, struggling and painful in his heart, "I'm in love with someone else." ”
After saying this, Shen Chengfeng only felt a sudden ringing in his ears.
Shen Ru's eyes were full of disbelief, she stared at Shen Chengfeng tightly as if she wanted to see through his heart, and the corners of her mouth trembled slightly, but she couldn't say anything.
Shen Chengfeng looked at her with a heartache, but he couldn't come up with any explanation.
Seeing Shen Ru's tears rolling in his eyes, Shen Chengfeng couldn't hold back anymore, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold back if he didn't leave.
He chose to ignore her tears, shook off her hand, and turned away.
In the next few days, Shen Ru never left the room.
Shen Zhiren knew what the reason was, and he also knew that his daughter was stubborn, but he believed that time could erase the scars.
So he asked people to send food, and the rest of the time Shen Ruai did whatever he wanted.
Such days went on for a week.
One night, Shen Chengfeng followed Shen Zhiren to a charity dinner, but received a text message from Shen Ru who wanted to see him.
Shen Chengfeng looked at the text message and spoke out until he was reminded by Shen Zhiren on the side: "Don't go." ”
At first, Shen Chengfeng also thought so, as long as Shen Ru survived this period.
But Shen Ru's successive phone calls disturbed him, and the depressed mood of these days finally broke out at this moment, and he could no longer resist the urge to see her.
Fortunately, the dinner party was separated from home by a road, so Shen Chengfeng took advantage of the time when he went to the toilet with an upset stomach and ran home.
There was no maid in the house, and it was dark in the mansion.
When he came to the room on the third floor, he didn't see Shen Ru, and was about to turn on the light, but was hugged by Shen Ru from behind.
Shen Ru's tone was humble, and he said with tears like rain: "Brother Chengfeng, don't leave me...... Don't fall in love with others, I've tried to forget but I can't forget you, don't leave me........"
Shen Ru's body was sloppy, and he still vaguely exuded the smell of wine, and his strength in holding himself was very strong, and he couldn't shake it off.
I think it's drinking.
Shen Chengfeng didn't expect Shen Ru to suddenly be like this, and at the same time, he was worried that the maid at home would hear something different, in order to break free from Shen Ru's shackles, Shen Chengfeng vigorously broke her arm and pushed her back.
The original intention was just to keep Shen Ru at a distance, but he forgot that there were stairs behind the two.
Shen Chengfeng watched as Shen Ru rolled down the stairs and hit his head and neck against the wall around the corner......
Her neck was broken on the spot, and she lost her breath when she turned to the side.
"As it is...... As such! Shen Chengfeng was frightened by the scene in front of him and was about to go downstairs to check.
But before he could get closer, he heard the footsteps of the servants on the first floor.
Can't stay here...... Can't let people find themselves in this ......
Shen Chengfeng instinctively hid, he escaped over the wall while the servant called the police to leave, and ran back to the banquet hall.
Later, Shen Ru was defined by the police as a drunken stumble and died accidentally.
No one knows what happened that night.
Only Shen Chengfeng himself knows that he has lost the girl who loves him the most, and he himself has lived in the shadow of darkness forever after that night.......
