After resting at home for a few days, my body had almost recovered. My parents had been staying at Duanmu's house for the past few days. Duanmu Tachio and my father often discussed business matters in the study. Xiao Fengya and my mother usually took care of me and talked about all kinds of topics. Our family had been eating together for the past few days, but I didn't see Yu Xin. I asked Duanmu Que, and Duanmu Que said that because of some personal matters, she hadn't left her room for the past few days. Of course, she had also avoided eating with everyone. Although I didn't know what Yu Xin was thinking, not seeing her calmed me down a bit.
In a week, it would be Duanmu Que's birthday. Everyone had been preparing for a birthday party for him. I didn't deliberately prepare a birthday present for him, but I thought that if I prepared something for him, he would definitely like it.
That evening, I was bored and went for a walk in the garden. Originally, everyone had invited me to eat together, but I didn't know why, but I didn't have any appetite recently. So, I found an excuse to go outside and relax. In a corner of the garden, there was a large flower pond filled with roses of all kinds of colors. They were blooming beautifully. I hadn't left my room for a few days, so I didn't know that the garden had changed so much. I squatted down and reached out to gently stroke the soft petals. Smelling the fragrance of the flowers, I felt my mood improve. Suddenly, I heard footsteps. I raised my head and saw Duanmu Que.
He walked to my side and squatted down. "What do you think? Do you like it?"
I gently nodded. "Yes, it's very beautiful. Who made it?"
Duanmu Que stood up and coughed twice. He straightened his collar and said to me with a proud face, "Who else could it be? Of course, it's your handsome and smart husband who made it."
I couldn't hold back my laughter. I stood up and looked at his proud face. I gently touched his face and said, "Why did you suddenly want to make this?"
Duanmu Que pulled me into his embrace and whispered into my ear, "I heard Ma say that when you're in a bad mood, your favorite thing to do is to look at the roses by the flower pond. Originally, there weren't any at home, so I asked her to plant some flowers here. She wanted you to be able to see these flowers every day, just like in your own home. This way, your mood will be better."
It turned out that Duanmu Que was so attentive. I hugged him tightly and listened to his heartbeat. I whispered, "Thank you for being so attentive."
He suddenly looked at me with a serious face. "Sigh, actually, our flower pond isn't as big as the one at home. Although it's a little small, don't worry. When I have the chance in the future, I'll definitely give you a similar one. No, it'll be even bigger. Don't be unhappy."
Looking at his serious face, I smiled and knocked his head. "Silly, why do you need such a big one? This is good. It won't be too tiring for me to take care of."
Duanmu Que suddenly hugged me and gently stroked my hair. "It's good that I can hold you in my arms like this. Right now, I'm really scared of losing you. So, don't leave me, okay? Just stay in my arms like this. I don't care what happens, as long as you don't leave. "
It might have been an illusion, but I felt as if Duanmu Que's voice was choked with sobs when he said that. I hugged him tightly. No matter what, he was the only one in my heart. I didn't want to lose him. I just wanted to be with him forever.
The two of us leaned against the rose pond and talked about the things that had happened during our trip to America. From a distance, we saw Yu Xin walking towards us. She stopped in front of us and looked at me. Then, she turned to Duanmu Que and said gently, "Brother Duanmu, uncle wants to talk to you about something. He wants you to go to the study now."
Duanmu Que looked at Yu Xin, then turned to me. He gently stroked my face and said, "Xiao Li, dad wants to talk to me. I'm going there now. Don't stay for too long. Go back and wait for me." Then, he took off his jacket and put it on me. He affectionately kissed my forehead. "Put it on. Be careful not to catch a cold."
I waved at him and signaled for him to hurry. He nodded and walked into the room. Yu Xin and I were left alone. Yu Xin watched Duanmu Que turn to look at me after he entered the room. Her gentle expression disappeared, replaced by a cold and serious one. She stood there and looked at me with hatred in her eyes.
"You're really lucky." After a long time, she said those words. It felt as if she had squeezed them out from the roots of her teeth.
I looked at her with a puzzled expression. "What did you say?"
Yu Xin sighed and crossed her arms in front of her chest. She stood in front of me with a serious expression and said: "I thought that bitch Lu Sixue would be able to help me deal with you. I didn't expect that she would not only fail, but also get herself involved."
I stood up and looked at Yu Xin angrily. "Did you make her do those things?"
Yu Xin nodded at me, her face full of disdain.
My head was in a mess. I turned to Yu Xin and said, "Are you crazy? Don't you know that you almost killed Xiao Que? "
Yu Xin sneered and glared at me. "That's right. I arranged all those things. After you left, I learned about your itinerary from Uncle Duanmu. I called Lv Sixue and told her about you. Do you know how stupid she is? When she heard that Duanmu Que was going, she naively wanted to mend her relationship with him. But when she heard that the two of you were going on a honeymoon, she hated the two of you very much. I took advantage of this. "
"You arranged everything, too?" I was very surprised.
"That's right. She's so stupid. How could she have thought of such a perfect plan? Of course, I taught her. So why do you think Duanmu Que wasn't injured and you were the only one injured? The plan was flawless. If it wasn't for her not being able to kill you and your Red Minghui's reinforcements coming too quickly, do you think you would still be standing here talking to me? Don't joke around. "Yu Xin glared at me with disdain.
I couldn't imagine that everything that happened in America was planned by Yu Xin. I suddenly thought of something and said to her, "Was Wang Meng part of your plan?" If Wang Meng was also one of Lv Sixue's people, then it was very likely that his entering the Red Minghui would bring trouble to our branch. So I asked Yu Xin.
"Who is he? I don't know him. "Yu Xin impatiently replied. My heart calmed down a bit. Luckily, Wang Meng didn't know her.
Looking at her arrogant appearance, I couldn't bear it anymore. I said to her, "Yu Xin, don't be happy too early. Lv Sixue was taken away by the police. Don't worry, it won't be long before she gives you away."
