pampered roses

Fu Zechen's words fell into Tangli's ears word by word. She raised her eyes, her clear and lingering gaze met Fu Zechen's, and she looked into his ink-like eyes. Seriously.

Tangli looked away, her heart beating a little faster.

Fu Zechen glanced at her with raised eyebrows, his eyes dimmed for a moment, and he didn't continue to tease her,

He said lightly: "Since you're back, take a good rest, lest you get sick again,"

Fu Zechen put his hand on Tangli's head, rubbed it lightly twice, then turned around and went upstairs.

Tangli froze in place, her heartbeat slowed down a beat. Looking at Fu Zechen's back, she felt that the temperature that had finally subsided was about to rise again.

Tangli let out a breath, pursed her lips and did not speak again, turned around and went upstairs to her room.

-

Tangli didn't sleep for long, and it was just noon when she woke up. She picked up her phone to check the time, and saw a few unread messages on the phone page.

Tangli saw the note, pursed her lower lip, and clicked into the message page.

It was sent by the person who remarked "brother".

[I sent you a birthday present and put it in Yueranju, remember to get it. 】

Tangli paused with her fingertips, her thoughts drifting away.

It turns out that tomorrow is her birthday again.

The light in Tangli's eyes dimmed, and she looked at the dialog page for a long time without any response.

The birthday that others longed for, but for Tangli, it was a nightmare she couldn't avoid.

Her 16th birthday completely ruined everything that belonged to her.

Tangli lowered her eyes, moved her fingers, and replied to the person on the other end.

[Thank you brother. 】

[But brother, you don’t need to send it next time. 】

After a long time, a good word came back from the other end.

Tangli put away her phone, turned around and went downstairs.

Only Fu Linshuang was downstairs, but Fu Zechen was not seen.

Fu Linshuang was watching a variety show, biting a washed apple in her hand, watching the content of the variety show and laughing, she collapsed on the sofa, she saw Tangli from the corner of her eye, immediately jumped up from the sofa, ran to Tangli, her eyes Looking at people worriedly.

"Sister Tangli, how are you doing?"

"Are you hungry? The kitchen has some porridge for you. Wait for me to bring it to you."

Tangli sat on the sofa, and lowered her eyes: "Thank you Linshuang."

"What's the matter, sit down."

Fu Linshuang ate the apple in her hand in twos and twos, and went to the kitchen to bring Tangli a small bowl of porridge with preserved egg and lean meat.

"I've been keeping it warm in the pot for you, and you'll feel much better after drinking it!"

"Thank you Linshuang."

Tangli took it and drank it in small sips.

"You don't have to thank me, this time it's thanks to my uncle," Fu Linshuang pulled Tangli to sit on the sofa, leaned back, and rarely scolded Fu Zechen.

"My uncle opened the door and went in and saw that you were delirious from burning, and your face was ugly at that time."

"Then he took you to the hospital and stayed with you for a long time. Although my uncle often behaves badly, I really thank him this time."

Tangli took another spoonful of porridge and fed it into her mouth, she lowered her head slightly and said nothing.

Fu Linshuang was in charge of enlivening the atmosphere, telling some gossip from time to time to make Tangli happy.

When she was smiling so hard that her teeth could not see her eyes, Tang Qi came.

Seeing that Fu Linshuang was sitting or not, he frowned: "How many times have I told you, elegant, elegant."

Fu Linshuang curled her lips, Tangli put down the bowl, glanced at Tang Qi, then looked at Fu Linshuang again: "Linshuang, are you going out again?"

"Yes," Fu Linshuang spread her hands, her expression helpless and complaining, "I have an endorsement tomorrow, so I have to prepare in advance today."

"Well, take care of yourself."

Fu Linshuang nodded, and looked at Tangli pitifully: "Sister Tangli, we haven't seen each other very often, I really miss you."

Tangli bent her eyes and said softly, "Go quickly, or you will be scolded again later."

Fu Linshuang pursed her lips, turned her head and saw Tang Qi squinting her eyes, looking at her dangerously, shook her body, and hurried upstairs to change her clothes.

After Fu Linshuang left, Tangli was the only one left in the family again.

There are servants cleaning not far away, and there is nothing else in the living room except for the rustling sound of cleaning.

Tangli suppressed her smile, got up and went upstairs.

When she came down from upstairs again, the simple home clothes on her body were replaced by a white cheongsam. Except for the cuffs and necklines outlined with black lines, this cheongsam could hardly see any patterns.

Tangli tied all her hair behind her head and fixed it with a very simple wooden hairpin. The cheongsam on her slightly pale face made her look very weak.

Tangli was expressionless, with no warmth in her dark gaze, holding a small bag in her hand, pursing her thin lips, and went out alone.

Tangli didn't use the driver at home, but took a taxi by herself. She went to the flower shop first, picked out a bunch of platycodon flowers, and then asked the driver to drive the car to the cemetery far away from the city center.

Today's weather is not very good, the sun above the head is covered by dark clouds, and it may rain at any time.

The blowing wind was cold, Tangli didn't wear much, and the wind blew past her body, but she didn't seem to notice it. After getting off the car, she walked straight into the cemetery, and finally stopped at the innermost In front of a tombstone.

There is a photo on the tombstone, the appearance of a middle-aged man, he looks like he is only in his 30s, he is handsome and elegant, and the photo is frozen with a faint smile.

Tangli put the platycodon flower in her hand in front of the tombstone, slender and white fingertips slid across the photo, the corners of her lips curved into a smile, and said softly,

"Dad, I'm back."

Tangli pursed her lips, her gaze fell on the photo, the corners of her mouth were not sharply curved, with a bit of bitterness.

She stood by the tombstone, took out a pack of cigarettes from her bag, took out one and lit it.

A puff of smoke came out of Tangli's mouth, blurring her face.

Tangli's eyes were a little dazed, and she couldn't see her expression clearly through the smoke.

Without saying a word, she just stood in front of the tombstone, smoking a cigarette quietly.

I don't know how long it has passed, Tangli stubbed out the cigarette, and just as she turned around, she saw two people coming up the stairs out of the corner of her eye.Tangli glanced, then paused, her face remained unchanged.

On the contrary, the people who came saw Tangli standing there, and their expressions were not very good.

Tang Ruoxue frowned, and subconsciously looked at the old man beside her.

The old man had gray hair and sharp eyes. When he looked at Tangli, he showed endless indifference. He was wearing a dark gray cheongsam, and Tang Ruoxue helped him with one hand, and he was walking towards Tangli step by step.

Even though the old man looks very old, his aura looks energetic, but he is not weak at all.

Not far behind the two, there were two bodyguards following them.

The old man was none other than the old lady of the Tang family, Tangli should call her grandma.

The old lady Tang saw the platycodon flowers in front of the tombstone at a glance, her eyes became even colder, and she said, "Throw away that bouquet of flowers for me."

The bodyguard behind him immediately stepped forward, grabbed the platycodon flower on the ground and threw it outside.

The flowers were thrown away on the ground, and the petals were scattered.

Tangli didn't respond, she just watched this scene indifferently, the indifference in her eyes remained unchanged, she raised her eyes to look at Mrs Tang, and said in a very calm tone, "Grandma."

Old Madam Tang frowned, and raised her crutch to swing it at Tangli.

She didn't hold back her strength, and Tangli didn't stop her, and the crutch hit Tangli's arm without warning.

Tangli's complexion did not change, but there was a heart-rending pain in her arm, and she just frowned.

The old lady Tang was not very relieved, and she seemed to knock again, this time Tangli was no longer indifferent.

She stretched out her hand, and when the crutch was about to fall on her arm, she clasped it on the pole.

Tangli pursed her lips and glanced at the old lady Tang lightly. As soon as the hand holding the cane was strong, Tangli pulled the cane out of her hand and threw it aside.

"you……"

The old lady Tang stared at Tangli, baring her teeth for a long time without saying a word.

On the other hand, Tang Ruoxue took a step forward, raised her hand to Tangli's face, and wanted to slap her.

Tangli raised her hand, clasped Tang Ruoxue's hand that was about to fall, glanced at Tang Ruoxue lightly, and shook her hand away with an extremely cold arc at the corner of her mouth.

"In front of Dad's grave, I don't want to make too much noise."

"You!" Tang Ruoxue still remembered what happened on her last birthday, her face was ugly, and she mocked, "What qualifications do you have to mention Dad, how could he die if it wasn't for you!"

Tangli was expressionless, took out a paper towel from her bag, and wiped her fingers slowly one by one. After wiping it clean, she held the paper in her hand, raised her eyes, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became gentle, like the indifference just now It's all hallucinations.

"I wish grandma a long life."

"I still have something to do today. I will visit you in person some other day."

After the words were finished, Tangli pursed her lips, without any warmth in her eyes, and walked around the two of them and left.

Tang Ruoxue turned her head, looked at Tangli's slender back, and pinched her palm with her clenched fingers.

The old lady Tang also squinted her eyes, her old eyes exuded a chill, looked at the person on the tombstone, and sneered,

"Ruo Nian, Ruo Nian, look at your wonderful daughter..."

-

When Tangli walked outside the cemetery, her cheeks suddenly felt wet. She looked up, and the sky began to rain lightly.

Tangli moved her eyelashes, stretched out a hand slowly, looked at the drops of water dripping on her hand, stood at the door without hiding, and let the rain fall on her body.

The location here is remote, and there are very few vehicles coming over at ordinary times, and now it is raining, and there are no cars to be seen.

Tangli walked forward, the sky was lightly raining, her hair was loosened by the rain, Tangli simply tore her hair apart, and spread all the black hair on her back, step by step, away from the cemetery behind her.

Tangli didn't know how long she had walked, her hair was sticking to her face, her curly eyelashes were covered with rain, she couldn't see the road ahead, her body was a little heavy, but she seemed to be unaware, and went forward on her own.

A car stopped beside him.

Familiar Cayenne, familiar license plate number.

Tangli paused in her footsteps and looked towards the car in a daze.

In the next second, the rear door of the Cayenne opened, revealing Fu Zechen's handsome face with a sharp knife and an axe. There was no warmth in his eyes, and he glanced up and down at the embarrassed Tangli. His voice was very cold, and he said to Tangli: " Come up."

Tangli moved her lips, and finally got into Fu Zechen's car.
