Chapter 96: Embarking on a Journey (6)
However, Zhou Xinxin couldn't think of the answers to all these. She didn't even know what love was. How could love have such a huge charm that made the two people so deeply bound? Zhou Xinxin still couldn't understand it now.
Some things, once the decision has been made, there is no regret, just like Yinyin's determination to leave; after waking up from the coma, her body felt much better. In Xue Han's words, it might be related to Yinyin's own will. For someone who is determined to leave and to abandon everything, the body is no longer important. So after waking up, Yinyin quickly said goodbye to Zhou Cheng, returned to [Zhaoren Mansion], and told Shan Yufeng the reason for leaving. Getting forgiveness was the most comforting thing for Yinyin. Of course, she did not ignore the fact that this decision hurt a mother who loved her child, but Yinyin seemed to be unable to care so much...
"I'm sorry, mother. I know I'm unfilial, but I'm really sorry—"
No matter who she is facing, Yin Yin can't find other words to express her guilt except apology. Maybe, there is one person who will be different?
"No, Yinyin, don't say sorry. This is what I should do. You are grown up now and have the freedom to choose. If you are willing to pursue your own happiness, I am so happy for you that I can't wait to blame you. If you can find a good son-in-law, it will be considered that you have fulfilled your filial duty."
"mother--"
Shan Yufeng is not such an irrational person. Although she does not like political marriage, she does love Zhang Ren very much. So not only does she not hate it, but she likes this political marriage arranged for her by her parents very much. Although Zhang Ren does not love her as much as she loves him, she is very satisfied. She also knows that Zhang Ren cherishes her and their children very much. Therefore, she is very fortunate to have this wonderful marriage. Even though one of them has passed away now, she still has Yin Yin.
"I don't need to ask you what your relationship with that person is, and I don't care what your mood is, but you have to promise me that no matter what, you must come back to me safely, okay?"
Everything about the future is unknown, but in order to reassure Shan Yufeng, Yin Yin nodded. Yin Yin knew that Shan Yufeng's health had been deteriorating since Zhang Ren's death, and she shouldn't leave at this time, but she was also very helpless. Sometimes she had to make a choice even if it was cruel.
"That's good, that's good——"
Even though she knew that Yinyin nodded only to reassure herself, Shan Yufeng still held Yinyin in her arms with satisfaction. She didn't know whether Yinyin could come back again, and she also knew that she couldn't stop her, so she had no choice but to let go and could only pray for Yinyin wholeheartedly.
"There is one more thing, can you promise me?"
Yin Yin, who was held in his arms, nodded.
"If you find that person, can you bring him back for me to see?"
Not to mention whether she could find him, she didn't even know whether she really loved him or whether he was really worthy of her love. Yin Yin couldn't give an answer. After hesitating, Yin Yin finally nodded.
"Yes, I will."
Yin Yin said so, because if the other person is really worthy of her love and loves her deeply, Yin Yin will definitely bring him back, even if the other person's status is very different. Yin Yin believes that as long as they love each other, they can definitely do it, not to mention that Shan Yufeng is her only relative now.
After saying goodbye for the last time and making all preparations, Yin Yin finally set out on her journey the next day. Before leaving, Zhou Cheng and Zhou Xinxin both came to Zhaoren Mansion to see her off. The group said goodbye at the door, and the carriage and entourage were ready. What was rare was that Zhou Yan did not come, but no one cared anymore.
"Sister Yinyin, you must come back again."
"Yes, I will."
When facing separation, Zhou Xinxin still couldn't bear the emotions in her heart, so she simply threw herself into Yin Yin's arms and started crying. Maybe she thought that she didn't like Yin Yin as much as she thought, but she was still sad about the separation. Sometimes she wished she could go back to the past, when Yin Yin was there, the days were so happy, but now, that happiness had passed away unknowingly.
"Miss--"
Lei'er was not able to leave with Yinyin as she wished, but was left behind to take care of Shan Yufeng, so she was reluctant to leave, "Lei'er, take good care of mother."
"Lei'er knows, Miss, you should also remember to come back soon."
"Um!"
Lei'er was repeatedly told to take good care of Shan Yufeng. Fortunately, Shan Yufeng didn't come out to see her off because she didn't want to be sad at the time of parting. Anyway, everything that needed to be said had already been said, and Yinyin was somewhat relieved about this. At least she didn't have to be so sad anymore.
Among the people who saw her off, Zhou Cheng did not speak a word from the beginning. He just stared at Yin Yin with eyes full of reluctance and sadness. He wanted to say something, but he could not say it, so he could only watch. In the end, it was Yin Yin who looked through the others and met Zhou Cheng's gaze...
"I have to go. It's getting late."
When watching Yin Yin say these words to him, Zhou Cheng seemed to hear the sound of something breaking in his heart, and an indescribable bitterness surged up in his heart, but he still reluctantly pulled his lips and smiled at the end: "Well, have a good trip."
Only Zhou Cheng himself knew what thousands of words were contained in these simple farewell words. Yin Yin also nodded in understanding and gently pushed Zhou Xinxin away.
"I'm leaving, take care."
"Sister Yinyin——"
After saying goodbye, Zhou Xinxin knew that she could not stop them, so she could only watch Yinyin leave. After Yinyin nodded and said hello to everyone, she took in the entire view of the gate of Zhaoren Mansion before turning around, and then she turned around and got on the carriage without looking back...
"Sister Yinyin——"
"Miss!!"
"Walk."
Yin Yin did not respond to Zhou Xinxin, Lei'er and others' calls, and did not even show her face again. She simply uttered a word, and the team began to move forward. Yin Yin finally embarked on a new journey...
