Whispering red makeup gl

Ling house.

Pale mourning streamers are wrapped in the temporary altar in the side courtyard, and the strong smell of incense candles flutters with the wind, blowing offerings to the souls floating in the air.Paper-made chariots and horses are parked at the entrance of the coffin for the dead to ride in the underworld.On the other side of the door, a few colored figures made of paper with strange expressions were erected against the side of the coffin to serve the life of the dead in the underworld.

The coffin was very quiet. Ling Ruchu was wearing sackcloth and knelt in front of the coffin with Ling's body lying on it. With both hands, he mechanically sent folded gold and silver ingots and pale yellow paper money into the copper basin. expression.The dancing flames were reflected in her pupils, and she lost the expression she should have: "Father, walk slowly. On the way to Huangquan, remember to use this money to pay for ghosts. Dad, walk slowly. If you are allowed to reincarnate, remember to come back and see Look at my daughter."

The sound of footsteps came slowly, and Shen Juexin stood still behind Ling Ruchu, looking at her thin and lonely figure, feeling a little pity in her heart.It seemed that, apart from myself, no one else came to express their condolences.Shen Juexin's eyes swept across Qingjian's coffin shed, and finally fixed on Ling Ruchu's hair: "Miss Ling." She called out softly, for fear of abruptly offending the beautiful woman who was immersed in sadness.

Hearing the voice vaguely, Ling Ruchu's back suddenly froze.She turned her head slightly, glanced at the hem of Shen Juexin's clothes with a dull expression, then looked at the burning paper money again, and continued to send some gold and silver ingots into the copper basin. "Mr. Shen." She paused, and her hands kept moving: "I was wronged before, I was confused, and I hope you will forgive me." She was really clear when the government notified her to claim Ling Yuanwai's body. What happened.At that time, she had gone to the Shen residence to look for Shen Juexin, and apologized in person in order to be forgiven.However, Shen Juexin was not there. For two consecutive days, she did not find any trace of Shen Juexin in Suzhou City, so she postponed the apology and focused on her father's funeral.

"I never blamed the girl." Shen Juexin stared at Ling Ruchu's back, feeling more and more pity.Although she knew very well that the woman in front of her was not Ruoxue, the feeling of pity for the beautiful woman clearly welled up in her heart. "I came here this time to express condolences, and to fulfill my promise to the girl, which is related to business matters. Miss Ling, the deceased is dead, so don't be too sad."

The paper money at hand decreased little by little, Ling Ruchu bit his lower lip without making any expression, trying his best to restrain the sadness in his heart.When she got up, her kneeling legs suddenly became weak. If Shen Juexin hadn't been there to hold her in his arms in time, she might have fallen to the ground right now.The warm breath wraps the whole body, bringing unusual comfort and warmth.Ling Ruchu looked up at her slightly, subconsciously put his hands in front of her, his eyes were moist.

"Miss Ling, are you alright? Can I...help you sit over there?" Shen Juexin lowered her head, only a short distance away from Ling Ruchu.Looking at the face that was exactly the same as her old love, her heart was completely in a mess.

Fortunately, Ling Ruchu has never been willing to show the slightest weakness in front of others.She is such a stubborn woman, stubborn enough to reject all good things, and bear all the sorrow and pain alone. "No need." Ling Ruchu broke away from Shen Juexin's embrace, as if what happened just now was nothing but an illusion.Although there were ripples in her heart, they were restrained and could not be allowed to expand and develop.

The well-intentioned care was rejected too simply, Shen Juexin couldn't help being a little embarrassed.She sneered a few times, and every time she met Ling Ruchu's eyes that almost looked like Ruoxue, she would always lose focus for a moment. "Did Miss Ling eat? If..." There seemed to be nothing to talk about, Shen Juexin wanted to talk about something else, but was interrupted by Ling Ruchu: "I have already eaten, thank you for your concern."

"Oh, that's...not bad, very good." Shen Jue's heart-filled kindness was ruthlessly blocked back, and he finally closed his mouth, not knowing what to say.She didn't say anything, but Ling Ruchu had something to say.She turned around and lit three sticks of incense for Yuan Wai Ling's memorial tablet, then turned around and lit another three sticks for Shen Juexin: "Since the young master is here to express his condolences, let's burn the incense first."

"Okay." After receiving the lit incense, Shen Juexin walked to Yuan Wai Ling's memorial tablet and bowed respectfully three times.Looking at her, Ling Ruchu slowly walked behind her, his red lips parted slightly, with infinite sentimentality: "I never thought that my father had done good deeds all his life, but you were the only one who came to see him when he died. Now, my father is gone, and I am a woman Even if you want to develop business for him, there is nothing you can do. Right now, the Ling family's business is like fish on a chopping board, ready to be divided. I am grateful for the son's intentions, but... this is the end of the matter, let it go Right. After my father is buried, I will sell the house, go back to my hometown, and observe mourning for three years."

"No!" How can you just let go of a good business?Shen Juexin disagreed with Ling Ruchu's thoughts, and said: "Miss Ling, how can you be so depressed? How can you just let go of the business that Ling Yuanwai has worked so hard for all his life? If you don't understand the way of business, I can teach you. Ling Yuanwai and I are partners, and now that he is gone, you should continue the business with me instead of him. I don’t care about other businesses, but I can help you with the current one. It’s also a year-for-year friendship between Ling Yuanwai and me What to do."

After a few words, Ling Ruchu suddenly looked at Shen Juexin with complicated eyes: "Really, is it only because you have forgotten your friendship that you are so eager to help?" She doubted.After all, Ling Yuanwai is a person in the business field, so he naturally has many friends.But if something really happened, how could anyone be sincere?In contrast, Shen Juexin's concern had to make Ling Ruchu have doubts.She almost stabbed her to death once, but instead of blaming her, she helped her so diligently.Such a person is either a completely good person, or... a bad person who cannot be provoked.

Ling Ruchu's words made Shen Juexin suddenly silent. She didn't know what she was referring to, nor was she ignorant of the suspicion in her heart.After some sighing, Shen Juexin laughed, seeming to be talking to himself, but not like that: "I've been relieved a long time ago, so what's the point of saying it? Miss Ling, I guess you probably think I have some conspiracy Right? Actually, the reason why I help you is firstly to ensure that my own business will not be lost, and secondly because of Miss Ling..."

"Me?" Shen Juexin's eyes seemed to be ambiguous, which made Ling Ruchu blush slightly, and took a few steps back defensively, keeping a distance from her: "Mr. Shen, you are a family man, no matter how bad Ling Ruchu is, , will not commit herself to be her concubine. Mr. Shen, let's put such thoughts aside!"

I was misunderstood.Shen Juexin suddenly felt that she had heard the biggest joke in the world, she couldn't help laughing, and said: "Miss Ling, your imagination is really... Don't worry, since Shen has a family, how can he treat other people like you?" It's just that the girl's appearance is very similar to one of my...friends."

Ling Ruchu still didn't quite believe it, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, he said bluntly: "Friend? So, does Mr. Shen have other feelings for that friend?"

How should she answer this question?Shen Juexin was silent for a moment, and finally faced the memory that he wanted to escape at the beginning: "That friend was once my deep love, but later she married someone else, and since then she has lost contact with her. However, time is always a good time." Things, no matter how unwilling you are, there is always time to let go. Miss Ling, I don’t know the answer, are you satisfied? If you are satisfied, why not follow me to the restaurant to eat something? If you are not hungry, you can accompany me.” Joke, aren't you hungry?I don't know whose stomach is growling non-stop.Really, can this woman not be so duplicity?
