His Glamorous Reborn Wife novel Chapter 955

She turned and walked away.

Madam Lan knew that it was not convenient for her to stay here. She said softly, "Then I'll leave first."

When all the outsiders had left, there was an empty silence in the house.

Yue Yu stood rooted to the ground, momentarily at a loss.

Today's matter was originally arranged by her to frame Shi Jin and sow discord between Shi Jin and Madam Yue... Then, the direction of the matter suddenly became uncontrollable.

She clenched her fists tightly, her heart filled with regret and hatred.

She regretted making this arrangement. However, she already knew in her heart that so many people knew about her background. Even if she wanted to hide it, it might not be useful.

"You should go back to your room and rest too," Madam Yue said softly.

Yue Yu thought for a moment before leaving. "Then... take care of yourselves."

After she went upstairs, Madam Yue sat back down on the sofa weakly.

"Jingxiu." Yue Feng sat beside her, holding her shoulders. "It's all right. It's all in the past."

But for a mother, how could this be okay and go away?

A mother and daughter pair had been separated for more than twenty years, and for such an absurdly simple reason.

She wept quietly, digging her nails into the sofa, letting the emotion push her away from reason.

Li manor.

Shi Jin sat on the sofa while Gu Qingqing brought her a bowl of ginger tea.

"Drink some while it's hot. This is specially made by you. It tastes good." Gu Qingqing smiled and stuffed the bowl into her hand.

"Thank you, Mom." Shi Jin's voice cracked as she quickly picked up the bowl and drank the soup.

This was the first time Gu Qingqing had seen her reveal such a fragile expression.

She looked up and saw Fu Xiuyuan coming. She immediately got up and gave him her seat.

Fu Xiuyuan saw Shi Jin sitting on the sofa, curled into a small ball.

She had always been very powerful and independent.

She would not avoid anything, but at this moment, she was like an injured little beast.

"Shi Jin," he whispered her name.

Shi Jin looked up at him. There was a smile on her lips, but tears slid down her cheeks.

His heart aching for her, he wrapped his long arms around her and held her close.

Today's incident was so sudden that Shi Jin was not prepared for it.

Being hugged by Fu Xiuyuan, she felt grounded and safe.

She tightened her arms around him, as if afraid he might disappear.

Gu Jingyuan rushed home and did not see Shi Jin. He asked anxiously, "Where's Shi Jin?"

"She's asleep," Gu Qingqing said softly. "She's tired. Let her sleep for a while."

Fu Xiuyuan closed the door and took the stairs.

Gu Jingyuan looked up and asked, "Is Shi Jin alright?"

"It's okay."

Gu Jingyuan sighed. "What happened?"

"That's all there is to it." Old Master Li put down the newspaper he was reading. "You got most of the answers over the phone. I wanted to find the right time to talk about this, in case it hurt her too much, but who knew she'd find out about it herself?"
