An Feng really trusted Helian Xiao.
Although first loves tended to be special to men, since he said that he no longer had feelings for his first love, he really wouldn’t have feelings anymore.
But because of his guilt, he couldn’t treat her as a stranger. If he was heartless towards his first love, An Feng wouldn’t trust him to take care of her for the rest of her life.
…
Zhizhi and Sihan would be registering their marriage a few days.
After the Old Madam found out, she said that she wanted to go with them then. At that time, the Helian family and the Royal family would discuss their wedding matters.
An Feng had moved to the Helian family house temporarily.
As the head of the family, Helian Xiao was extremely busy and seemed to leave the house early in the morning and returned late in the day.
An Feng found out from the Old Madam that Helian Xiao pushed all of his schedule to these few days before he gave himself a long break so that he could bring An Feng on a trip after Zhizhi registered her marriage.
An Feng didn’t ask Helian Xiao about his first love’s matters, trusting that he could settle it perfectly.
After spending a few days with An Feng, the Old Madam found An Feng to be really virtuous and gentle. Not only did she cook well, she knew how to arrange flowers and sew, her upbringing and character was also better than the rest. She could watch opera with her and remain in the same elegant posture for two hours. She was also willing to discuss the opera with her afterwards.
The Old Madam originally thought that An Feng was from a small family. However, after spending time with her, she found that although An Feng was introverted and easily embarrassed, An Feng seemed to know everything. When they chatted with the rich ladies, she was able to continue the conversation in a calm, elegant and comfortable manner.
She was perfect wife material.
This was also the ideal family mistress the Old Madam had always wanted. The Old Madam was rest assured to let An Feng take charge of the Helian family in the future.
After the Old Madam boasted about her daughter-in-law to several of the old ladies, she went to the kitchen. Smelling the rich fragrance, she exclaimed, “Ah Feng, after Zhizhi gets married, you should settle your marriage with Helian soon as well. I really want to drink your soup everyday!”
“Old Madam…”
“Aiyo, why are you always calling me Old Madam? How many times have I told you? Call me Mom!”
An Feng said with slight awkwardness, “I feel a little embarrassed.”
“There’s nothing to be embarrassed about, I already firmly believe that you’re our Helian’s daughter-in-law. You have to call me Mom eventually, so come on, call me Mom first!”
An Feng cupped her face, saying softly, “Mom.”
“Louder.”
“Mom.”
“Yes, my good daughter-in-law.”
Watching as the Old Madam smiled until her eyes were in a straight line, An Feng smiled as well.
After keeping half of the soup for the Old Madam, An Feng put the other half in a thermo flask.
She had called Helian Xiao in the morning to tell him that she would bring some food to him in the afternoon.
…
Helian Xiao walked out of the meeting room once the meeting was over. He pushed the door open and saw a slender figure sitting on the sofa. Helian Xiao walked over quickly. “An Feng.”
The woman turned around. When he saw the woman’s face clearly, Helian Xiao furrowed his eyebrows. “Meiyue, why are you here?”
Kuang Meiyue was wearing a pair of sunglasses, bandage still on her forehead from her ex-husband’s administering. She stared at the handsome man that was still extremely attractive as she pursed her pale lips. She said, “I thought about your suggestion to go abroad, I’ll listen to your suggestion.”
“However, I have one condition.”
Helian Xiao furrowed his eyebrows slightly as he sat on his Boss’ chair. He stared at Kuang Meiyue with a dark gaze. “What condition?”
Kuang Meiyue bit her lips, saying slightly miserably, “Do you remember what the Doctor said when I changed my corneas. If my environment is good, my eyes will remain fine for another twenty to thirty years. Indeed, everything was fine all these years. However, in recent few years, my gaze kept turning blurry. Sometimes, my sight would even turn completely dark. I don’t want to be blind, Brother Xiao, you owe me this.”
Helian Xiao narrowed his depthless eyes, knocking his slender fingers against the table. He nodded in deep thought. “You can go back to the hospital first. I’ll get the doctor to check for you. If it’s confirmed that you need to change your corneas again, I’ll help you contact a doctor.”
Hearing this, Kuang Meiyue nodded. “Thank you so much then. I’ll leave immediately once my eyes are fine.”
Kuang Meiyue stood up from the sofa, and walked towards the door.
Halfway there, her sight blurred once more, turning completely black. Her slender figure shook shakily, and she tripped and fell to the floor.
Hearing the sound, Helian Xiao stood up from the chair. Seeing that Kuang Meiyue had fallen to the floor, he walked over and squatted down. He held her arm. “What’s wrong?”
Kuang Meiyue took off her sunglasses, her eyes dazed as she seemed slightly panicked. “I-I can’t see again.”
Hearing this, Helian Xiao furrowed his eyebrows. He helped her to the sofa as she grabbed his sleeves with panicked hands. Her soft voice was slightly choked. “Brother Xiao, I’m really afraid. It might be because my ex-husband pushed me against the wardrobe that day…”
Her tears fell, as she leaned on Helian Xiao’s shoulder with a panicked and helpless expression.
…
The butler had brought An Feng to the Helian Corporation. Every worker in the Helian Corporation knew the butler, so no one dared to stop them.
The butler brought An Feng to the director only elevator to go to the top floor. When the secretary saw the butler bring a woman over, she didn’t dare to question anything either.
The butler brought An Feng to the Director’s office straight. The door wasn’t shut, and the butler was about to knock on the door when he saw what was happening inside.
A hint of panic flashed in the butler’s eyes. Seeing this, An Feng stopped the butler’s action to knock on the door and took a step forward.
Through the gap between the door, she happened to see what was happening inside.
Helian Xiao was sitting on the sofa, while Kuang Meiyue was leaning on his shoulder, her slender shoulders trembling slightly as if she was crying.
Seeing this, An Feng’s heart tightened immediately.
She passed the thermos flask to the butler, before she turned around and left quickly.
The butler glanced at the couple inside the office, then turned towards An Feng who was leaving, feeling extremely conflicted.
After An Feng came to the Helian family house, the cold house finally had some laughter.
He could tell that the Old Madam and Master had already treated An Feng as their family.
However, what was happening now?
Why would Master and Kuang Meiyue…
Helian Xiao glanced at Kuang Meiyue, who was crying on his shoulder. He was about to push her away when he suddenly saw the butler standing by the door.
Helian Xiao immediately stood up to go open the door. When he saw the butler furrowing his eyebrows, with a thermos flask in his hand, he asked coldly, “Why are you alone? Where’s An Feng?”
The butler glanced at Kuang Meiyue, whose face was covered in tears, before he sighed and said, “Young Lady’s mother saw you hugging Miss Kuang.”
