Chapter 379: 379, Epilogue 10, Tian Tian, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... ...

Author: Qin Ruoxu Machine Translation

Qiao man dragged her suitcase as she stood in the hall, looking a little awkward. Ever since the day he promised to let her go, she had never thought of coming back.

She had some savings on hand, so it was not difficult for her to buy a house in America. All she needed was a job with a stable income.

In the past few months, she had been working hard, and her income had gradually stabilized. In fact, she could already take Tian Tian over to live with her.

However, she was not in a hurry. She was afraid that Tian Tian would prefer to live with Ji Yunshen. She was also afraid that Tian Tian would prefer Lin Cheng. Of course, she was also more afraid that she would not be able to take good care of Tian Tian. After all... Compared to Ji Yunshen, Tian Tian's conditions were more than a world away ...

After all... Tian Tian's fate was rather tough. She was the only one left in her family of four. If Tian Tian were to leave her, she might have a better life ...

At least... ... She could not be worse ...

However, just as Lin Nancheng had said, people were selfish.

Tian Tian was the child that she carried for ten months and risked her life to give birth to. She loved and loved Tian Tian more than anyone else. She wanted to have Tian Tian more than anyone else, but... ... She was more afraid than anyone else ...

She was afraid that Tian Tian would be hurt because of her. She was also afraid that Tian Tian would follow the path of Qiao Jin and his parents and die because of Tian Tian... ...

Or to be more precise, she was more afraid of losing Tian Tian. It was like the fear she felt when she saw Qiao Mingzhang die with her own eyes.

She admitted that Qiao Mingzhang's blood-like appearance was a lingering shadow in her heart. It was also the reason why she didn't dare to open her heart.

It was fine to say that she was superstitious, that she had depression, and that she felt that she was useless. It was fine to say that she was a good-for-nothing, but those injuries, coupled with her fear, made her a coward.

The more she loved, the more timid she became... ...

Moreover, Tian Tian's heart transplant surgery required Ji Yunshen's money and ability.

She knew that even if Tian Tian finished the heart transplant surgery, Ji Yunshen would not fight with her for Tian Tian's custody. She could completely ignore those fears and shadows, and ignore the fact that she had depression, and keep Tian Tian by her side.. But she did not want Ji Yunshen to be unhappy, and Tian Tian to be unhappy.

Because if that was the case, she would not be happy either.

She did not ask for much now. She even thought about many sleepless nights. If Tian Tian could not adapt to life abroad and chose to live with Ji Yunshen, she would bring Tian Tian Abroad for a period of time during Tian Tian's winter and summer holidays In this way, she would not have to lose the love of either of her parents.

But... ... Those were all her one-sided thoughts. Ji Yunshen's cold attitude just now had explained everything ...

She was the one who said that she wanted to leave, and the one who wanted to come back was also her. Even if she was spoiled by Ji Yunshen to the point of having a bad temper and being willful, she knew that there were some things that could not be done as she pleased, especially the feelings that he valued the most.

Qiao man withdrew her gaze from Ji Yunshen and said in a low voice, "then... It's already very late. If there's nothing else, I won't disturb you while you're resting... "

She lowered her head and moved closer to the door. Before she stepped out, she heard the tall man standing by the stairs ask, "where are you going? "

"Oh... "

Qiao man pointed to the direction outside the door. "I'm going to stay at the Azure Dragon Lake Condominium. I'll come and see Tian Tian Tomorrow... "

After Ji Yunshen heard Qiao man's words, his handsome straight eyebrows knitted together. "There's no need. "

"I'll ask Elena to prepare a guest room for you. You can sleep there. I've been working overtime recently, and sometimes I don't even come back. You don't have to feel inconvenient. "

Qiao man waved her hand. "There's no need. I'd better go back... "

Ji Yunshen saw that she continued to refuse, and his tightly knitted eyebrows instantly furrowed into a ball. His tall body stood there without moving, and he didn't say anything else. That powerful air pressure and anger made her subsequent words become murmurs.

Elena was thirsty at night, and she was about to go to the kitchen to drink water. When she walked out of the room, she saw a man and a woman standing under the dim yellow sensor light.

She was stunned for two seconds at first, then quickly walked out of the room and asked with a smile, "Miss Qiao, when did you come back? Did you just get off the plane? Are you hungry? Have you eaten supper? "

The clock on the Living Room Wall showed that it was already 1:20 am. No wonder he had that expression when she said she was going back to the Green Dragon Lake apartment. It was already so late.

Most of the people in the city had already fallen asleep. Moreover, this was a closed-off area for the wealthy. There were almost no taxis at night. If one wanted to leave this place, they would have to have a car or someone else to send them.

Although the Blue Mountain Villa had night-shift bodyguards and did not need him to personally send them, it was still too troublesome.

Moreover, the night-shift bodyguards would also change shifts to take a nap. In the end, only two people would be left to monitor all the surveillance cameras. This amount of work was already very large, if one of them was sent to send her off.. Then it was equivalent to all the work falling on one person. Obviously, that did not conform to the rules he had set.

As she said this, Elena had already walked over. She did not care whether she agreed or not. She reached out and took the suitcase in her hand.

Qiao Man's hand was empty. She frowned slightly. "I... Haven't eaten yet. "

Or to be more precise, she had not eaten a single drop of water from the moment she boarded the plane to the moment she alighted.

When she thought about the possibility of Tian Tian leaving her completely, she had lost all appetite. Now that she knew that everything Lin Nancheng said was just a lie, she really felt a little hungry However, she felt that she did not have the right or position to eat here.

"Miss Qiao, come in quickly, I'll make you some midnight snacks that you like... "

"There's really no need, it's too troublesome... "

Qiao man wanted to reach out to take the suitcase in Elena's hand, but her slightly fat body blocked all her movements "It's alright, Miss Qiao. At my age, if I wake up at night, it'll be very difficult to fall asleep again. Besides, it's just late-night snacks, it's not troublesome at all. "

Elena's movements were very fast. The pink suitcase that had just been standing in the hall was taken to Ji Yunshen's side, and she smiled as she said to Ji Yunshen, "Mr. Ji, can you help me take Miss Qiao's suitcase upstairs? " It would take more than ten hours to fly back from America. The food on the plane was so terrible, and Miss Qiao was a picky eater, so she definitely didn't eat much. I'll go to the kitchen now to prepare supper for Miss Qiao. I don't have time to tidy her up... "... "..."

Ji Yunshen did not look over again. There was not a hint of emotion on his chiseled handsome face.

After more than ten seconds, he did not move at all. Just when Qiao man thought that he was trying to embarrass her in this way, she saw him bend down and stretch out his big hand to easily pick up the pink suitcase on the high-class floor.

The suitcase that was clearly very heavy in both her and Elena's hands seemed to be weightless in his hands. His back was still tall and straight, and his footsteps were still steady and powerful He gradually disappeared from her sight.

Elena then turned on all the lights in the living room on the first floor. Seeing that she was still standing in the hall, she said in a low and slow voice, "Miss Qiao, you've traveled a long way. Hurry up and go to your room to take a shower and change into clean clothes. My supper will be ready soon. "

"Okay, thank you, Elena. "

"Hey, you're welcome, Miss Qiao. This is what I should do. "

Qiao man had not eaten for a day and a night and had not slept. Now that she was hungry and tired, she did not have any pretense or resistance. After changing into the lady's slippers that she had worn in the blue mountain villa, she walked upstairs to her room.

After Ji Yunshen placed Qiao Man's pink suitcase into the cloakroom, he did not continue to be indifferent. Instead, he opened her suitcase and hung the clothes inside, one by one, in the cloakroom's closet.

The guest room that Qiao man wanted to stay in had to go through the closet. Through the wide open door, the image of the man tidying up her clothes and hanging her clothes was reflected in his eyes.

When she went upstairs, she had been thinking, where would he put her luggage?

The second bedroom, the master bedroom, the guest room, or the closet... ...

And other than the guest room that he would be staying in, she was thinking about how to go to the master bedroom, the second bedroom, and the closet to retrieve her suitcase while he was there.

However, in this second, all the struggles that she had when she went upstairs just now disappeared. Because this scene was like a wife returning home from a business trip, and her husband helping her pack her luggage considerately, not like a divorce It was even like a stranger who had no relationship with her.

As for what exactly she felt, she could not explain it clearly, but she knew that she was a little touched.

She took a few glances, then retracted her gaze and walked in.

Ji Yunshen heard her light footsteps. There was no panic or embarrassment when he was seen by her. His movements were still natural, as if he had done this countless times.

The more relaxed he was, the more helpless Qiao man became. She could not figure out what he was thinking or doing. It was all based on guesses.

"I... Want to get a change of clothes. "

Ji Yunshen did not make way for the wardrobe. He just casually picked out a nightgown for her and handed it over.

Qiao man reached out to take it and said softly, "thank you. "

Ji Yunshen did not say anything. He only let out a soft "HMM. ".

Qiao man stood there for two seconds, or maybe more than ten seconds, before she turned around and walked out of the closet.

She felt that what she left behind for him was definitely a retreating figure.

However, only Ji Yunshen himself knew that he would be happy for a long time if she could come back and stand in front of him for real.

He did not expect Qiao man to love him more than he did, but at least she had to love him, no matter how much.

...

Qiao man took a hot shower in the guest room and changed into a clean nightgown before going downstairs for supper.

The door of the cloakroom was not closed, but Ji Yunshen was no longer in it. He must have gone to sleep.

Elena had made many of her favorite food, but considering that she would have to go straight to sleep after eating, she did not eat too much, afraid that she would not be able to digest well.

When she was about 70% full, she put down her chopsticks.

Seeing that she had only eaten a little, Elena could not help but frown deeply. "Miss Qiao, why have you lost so much weight in the past few months when you went to America? Is it because the food in America is not good, you are not used to it... "

Qiao man picked up the tablecloth on the dining table, elegantly wiped her hands and mouth, and then gently shook her head. "It's alright, I'm just a little busy with work. My three meals are not very regular, and then I often have stomachaches. Maybe that's how I lost weight. "

Upon hearing Qiao Man's words, Elena shook her head disapprovingly. "Miss Qiao, although you're still very young, you must take care of your bodies. Don't work too hard. The body is the capital of a revolution! "

"Yes, I will. Thank you, Elena. "

Upon hearing this, Elena quickly shook her head and said, "No need to thank me. As long as you and Mr. Ji are getting better and better, it will be the greatest thank you to me. "

Qiao man did not reply. She did not even know if she should reply or what she should reply to.

After a few seconds of silence, Qiao Man stood up and prepared to pack up her food. Seeing this, Elena hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop her. Then, she said in a low voice, "Miss Qiao, it's very late. You should go up and sleep. I'll clean up the rest. "

"It's alright. Sometimes, when I'm jet-lagged, my mind will become clearer and clearer. Maybe after I clean up the dining table, my sleepiness will surge up... "

Qiao man did not like to trouble others, especially when it was within her abilities. She also did not like to trouble others.

Although she did not have any talent in cooking, she did not need to show off her culinary skills. Instead, she tidied up the dining table and kitchen. She felt that she was completely fine.

"There's no need. You should go up and rest. "

This time, Elena stretched out her hand and pushed her to the top of the stairs. She did not return until she saw that she had disappeared on the stairs. She started to tidy up the dining table and kitchen.

...

Qiao man quietly returned to the guest room. She stood by the window and looked at the garden scenery outside for quite a while, as well as the city's neon lights in the distance.

Perhaps it was because Tian Tian and he were both there, but after she returned, she did not feel estranged or unfamiliar. Instead, she felt a sense of belonging.

Although she did not want to admit it, she had to admit it.

After staring blankly for more than ten minutes, she reached out and closed the curtains. Then, she walked back to the bed, closed her eyes, and prepared to fall asleep.

After she closed her eyes, her sleepiness quickly returned and she fell into a deep sleep.

It was 2:30 am in the morning, in the study room diagonally across from the guest room.

Ji Yunshen was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, smoking. Green and white smoke curled around his body, mixing with the weak light coming in from outside the window. It made his entire figure appear taller and taller, his pair of eyes as deep as the night.. Looking at the unknown distance outside the window, it seemed to be filled with stories, but also seemed to be filled with... ... Longing ...

The transparent ashtray beside the desk was already filled with the cigarette butts he had extinguished.

It could be seen that he was a little depressed, even irritated.

Qiao man did not come back. He missed her. Qiao man was back. If he could not immediately hold her in his arms, he would miss her even more.

He did not know if he wanted more of her sweet lips or more of her soft body. He only knew that his body was screaming in pain in the middle of the night, thinking about her pain.

If he could, he really wanted to press her under his body and feel the pain, but he had to endure it until she was willing.

This time, the willing took the bait.

After taking another deep breath of the cigarette in his hand, he put out the cigarette that was about to burn to the end and put it out in the transparent ashtray on the desk. He stood there and watched for a long time before returning to his room to fall asleep.

In his dream, Qiao Man's figure was everywhere.

...

Qiao man did not sleep for a day and a night. Coupled with the time difference between Los Angeles and forest city, she slept from two in the morning until three in the afternoon the next day.

The sunlight outside the window was very bright and beautiful. It shone through the gaps in the curtains, making it hard for her to open her eyes.

She raised her hand and covered her eyes. After getting used to the bright light shining through the window for a while, she sat up.

After sleeping for more than ten hours, she only felt her entire body go limp, like a cat that had slept soundly in the afternoon.

When Ji Yunshen left in the morning, he had told Elena not to disturb Qiao man's sleep. She had to wait for Qiao man to wake up naturally.

She agreed and waited from morning to noon, and then from noon to now.

However, Elena felt that Qiao man had slept for too long. It was so long that she really wanted to go into the room to see if Qiao man was sleeping or... ... She had a fever and caught a cold. She did not want anyone to know that she was not feeling well ...

She raised her hand and put it down on the door panel. After a few repetitions, she finally landed on the door panel.

"Miss Qiao, are you awake? Are you hungry? Do you need me to prepare some afternoon tea to fill your stomach? "

Qiao man was sitting on the bed. When she heard Elena's voice coming from outside the door, she replied softly, "I'm awake. Can you help me cook a bowl of noodles? I don't really like sweet food now. "

Upon hearing Qiao Man's words, Elena hurriedly replied, "okay, okay, Miss Qiao Man. I'll go and prepare it now. "

After hearing Elena's footsteps, Qiao man got off the bed, put on her slippers, and walked to the French window. She then reached out and pulled open the French window curtains.

It was July in Lin city. It was already the hottest and hottest summer. When it was not raining, one could even see the scorching temperature of the sun's rays on the ground.

When she slept last night, she had turned the air-conditioning in the room to the maximum. At this moment, she was wearing a nightgown with a sling. When she got out of bed, she did not have any cover. She was so agitated by the cold wind that she shrank a little. In the next second.. She felt her entire body turn cold.

In order to prevent catching a cold, she quickly took the air-conditioning remote control and turned the temperature up a little. Then, she walked in the direction of the bathroom.

After a simple wash, she went to the cloakroom next door and changed into a set of pajamas.

Five minutes later, she went downstairs. Elena had already finished making the handmade noodles. Just as she was about to go upstairs to ask her to come down and eat the noodles, she raised her head and saw her petite and thin figure. She hurriedly said with a smile, "Miss Qiao, come and have a taste of my handmade noodles. When you were not around, Mr. Ji often ate them and often praised me for my cooking skills that are even better than the professional chefs in the restaurant. "

Qiao man slowly walked down and took a look at the handmade noodles on the dining table, which looked delicious and delicious. She quickly thanked her, "thank you, Elena. "

"Miss Qiao, you really don't have to be so polite with me. To be honest, it's my honor to be able to take care of your and Mr. Ji's food and living. "

Qiao man nodded and did not continue to be polite. Instead, she sat on the dining table and began to eat Elena's handmade noodles.

After taking a bite, she completely agreed with Ji Yunshen. The handmade noodles made by Elena were indeed very delicious. It was no wonder that he would often praise them.

She ate half of a big bowl of handmade noodles and could not eat anymore.

Elena tried to persuade her, but she shook her head to show that she really could not eat anymore. Elena did not continue to force herself.

After pushing away the bowl in front of her, she stood up and went upstairs.

It was very close to the end of Tian Tian's kindergarten, so she wanted to drive to pick her up.

This idea came to her on the spur of the moment. She changed into a new dress, put on some light makeup, and left the house.

At this time, there were no traffic jams on the road, and they soon arrived at Tian Tian's kindergarten.

It had been more than three months since they last saw each other. Through the window, she looked at Tian Tian, who was sitting in front of her desk with her head lowered, seriously writing and drawing. For some reason, her eyes suddenly turned red.

Perhaps she missed Tian Tian too much, or perhaps she knew that Tian Tian was fine and could accompany Tian Tian for a very, very long time, but she was suddenly very satisfied and touched... ...

Tian Tian did not know whether it was because her gaze was too hot or because they were mother and daughter, but Tian Tian, who had been lowering her head and drawing seriously, suddenly turned her head and looked in the direction of the floor-to-ceiling window. Her gaze collided with Qiao Man's gaze in the air.

She thought that Tian Tian would blame her and even pretend that she did not see her. After all, she had personally told her that if Tian Tian abandoned her again, she would not forgive her. However, she did not. Instead, she ran towards Tian Tian.

Qiao man also ran towards Tian Tian. When Tian Tian ran over, she squatted down and hugged Tian Tian tightly.

Tian Tian's soft arms wrapped around Tian Tian's neck tightly as she cried out, "Mama, Mama, Mama... "

Qiao Man's eyes were filled with warm liquid. She tried her best to control it, but she could not control it. Her Red Lips trembled as she replied, "ah... "

Her hand caressed Tian Tian's soft hair as she muttered softly, "Tian Tian, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... "

As a mother, she was not qualified. Ever since Tian Tian was born, she seemed to have been disappointing Tian Tian.

Tian Tian shook her head and said with tears in her eyes, "mummy, Tian Tian doesn't blame you. "

Daddy said that mummy had many difficulties. Daddy also said that mummy had suffered too many injuries and those injuries could not be defined and measured by forgiveness or unforgiveness. That was why he had abandoned her and daddy time and time again.

Actually, she could not understand these words clearly, but she knew that she wanted to live with daddy and mummy.

No matter how much harm she did not know or how much unforgivable harm there was between them, she would help her father and mother resolve it instead of holding a grudge.

"Tian Tian knows that Mother did not intentionally abandon Tian Tian, but was forced to do so. "

Qiao man slowly closed her eyes. After a few seconds, she wiped away the tears on her face and said in a clear voice that was weightless, "Tian Tian, mother will take you away this time... okay? "

"Mother, Tian Tian doesn't want to leave you... nor does she want to leave father. Isn't it good for the three of us to live together? "
