Chapter 3206 Shen Tianyu 606
Yuan Jinzhi stretched out his hands and touched the faint glow in the air, saying, "It's so kind of you to go to such lengths to make me happy."
Shen Tianyu removed the jade flute from his lips and said, "There's nothing I can do. People don't cherish what they have anymore. Before, a single glance or a word from me could make you savor it for a long time. Now, all of that is useless. I have to put in more effort to please you."
Yuan Jinzhi reached out and punched his chest, "You're saying I'm greedy?"
Shen Tianyu smiled and took her hand. "Are you happier now?"
Yuan Jinzhi nodded.
"Xianxian doesn't have a very good temper. If you keep sulking, her temper will get even worse."
“I’m not holding a grudge. I just don’t want you to get hurt again. There are so many elderly people in the family. If you have to help them break through their tribulations and extend their lives one by one, as Jing Hong said, even if you had a hundred lives, it wouldn’t be enough to keep up with the strain. If you can break through a tribulation, you can. If you can’t, there’s no need to force it. Do everything within your capabilities. My great-grandfather, grandfather, and maternal grandfather don’t need their lives extended. Their lives are in their own hands. How long they live is predetermined.”
She hugged his waist, "I only have one husband, and Xianxian only has one father."
Her voice lowered, "I just feel sorry for you."
Her voice grew softer, "I can't live without you."
A corner of Shen Tianyu's heart softened.
He raised his hand and gently pinched her lips. "You said you weren't sulking, but your lips have been pouting so much these past two days you could hang an oil bottle on them."
Yuan Jinzhi retorted, "It's not that exaggerated. I've never liked pouting since I was a child."
Shen Tianyu smiled faintly, "In front of your parents, you're mature and sensible, but in front of me, you're always pouting and throwing a tantrum."
Yuan Jinzhi hurriedly reached into his pocket to take out his phone, opened the camera, and looked at his mouth.
She didn't pout at all.
She stood on tiptoe and pinched his mouth, saying, "You lied to me, I didn't even pout."
Shen Tianyu kissed her fingers.
Yuan Jinzhi's face suddenly flushed, and she withdrew her finger a beat too late.
Even after being married for so long, a kiss on her finger still makes her heart race.
Shen Tianyu lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Hold on for a few more days. Once the baby is three months along, I'll help you cool down."
Yuan Jinzhi's face flushed red instantly.
She slapped his arm. "You're so annoying!"
Shen Tianyu smiled silently.
Finally, they've calmed him down enough.
Trying to win a woman over is harder than going to the front lines of a war.
Suddenly sensing an unusual aura, Shen Tianyu looked up into the distance.
A small wooden boat creaked and groaned as it sailed by.
There was a man and a woman on the boat.
The man had slightly wavy, medium-length hair, wore a brown plaid shirt tucked into loose black trousers, and had a long face, thick eyebrows, deep-set eyes, and a high nose.
The woman, dressed in white, had a beautiful face and a slender waist, which was embraced by the man.
Shen Tianyu thought to himself, "Jing Hong, whose spirit cannot be dispelled, has come again."
Wherever he goes, he follows.
It's as if he has a tracking device installed on him.
Jing Hong rowed with one hand, increasing the speed of the wooden boat.
They soon arrived at the artificial island. Jing Hong, carrying Bai Chenxue, leaped onto the island.
Jing Hong raised his hand to greet Shen Tianyu, "In-law, we meet again!"
Shen Tianyu looked down and said nothing.
Jing Hong, used to it, waved in Yuan Jinzhi's direction, "Xianxian, your uncle has come to see you!"
Yuan Jinzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He really is a Taoist priest; even his greetings are different from others.
She noticed that since Jing Hong married Bai Chenxue, the overly strong and tough aura he used to have faded. His eyebrows and eyes became more relaxed, his figure more graceful, and his temperament more relaxed and unrestrained. He had both the wildness of someone who grew up in the wilderness and the fashion sense of a young man from a big city.
A Taoist priest, surprisingly with excellent taste in clothing.
If he hadn't spoken, you would never have guessed he was a Taoist priest from Maoshan.
Bai Chenxue explained to Yuan Jinzhi, "Jinzhi, we weren't following each other, it was just a coincidence."
Yuan Jinzhi laughed, "It's alright, it's more fun when everyone plays together."
Shen Tianyu knew, however, that Jing Hong was the one who had been following him.
He could calculate his approximate location and then call the Gu family.
Although there are many places to visit under the Gu family's control, Shen Tianyu only wants to go to a few places. It's easy to find out his whereabouts with a simple inquiry.
Jing Hong opened his throat and began to sing: "Even in my dreams, your beautiful image remains. I've spent my whole life writing about love and hate, but in the end, it's all just a single word, 'love,' that binds me for life. I watch the moon set over the border, dreaming of returning to Chang'an. Whose heart is pierced by the red candle and the shadow of flowers? Looking back on these years, they've flown away like water, never to return. How many regrets remain? How many times have I sighed upon waking from my dreams? Wine breaks the heart, love and hate are ultimately a dilemma. I'll shatter the sky with my sword and roam freely, spending my whole life writing about love and hate..."
His voice was deep and rough, yet also carried a touch of ethereal beauty.
Although it's sung with the mouth, it's like hitting your heart with a hammer, creating a powerful and soul-stirring experience.
Shen Tianyu knew that Jing Hong was singing this to him.
Tell him to prioritize "love".
The dilemma of love and hate is meant to tell him that he faces a difficult choice between his wife and daughters and his family.
He didn't offer a single word of advice, yet every word he spoke was a form of persuasion.
Shen Tianyu thought to himself, "What a scheming devil."
After finishing the song, Jing Hong took a breath and said to Yuan Jinzhi, "Xianxian, let me sing you another nursery rhyme. That way, when you are born, you will feel a sense of familiarity and feel that your uncle is very kind to you."
Bai Chenxue said softly, "Xianxian's hearing hasn't developed yet, she won't be able to hear you even if you sing."
“That’s an ordinary child. Xianxian has Tianyu’s genes. She can’t hear, but her soul can sense things.”
Shen Tianyu took Yuan Jinzhi's hand and said to Jing Hong, "Sing for Jing Bai, Xianxian likes quiet."
Before Jing Hong could react, he bent down, scooped up Yuan Jinzhi in his arms, and lightly leaped onto the boat.
He put Yuan Jinzhi down and rowed away with one hand.
Feeling that Shen Tianyu was too cold, Yuan Jinzhi waved goodbye to Bai Chenxue.
After they had walked away, Bai Chenxue said to Jing Hong, "Don't always hang around them in the future. I feel that Young Master Shen doesn't like you doing that."
Jing Hong disagreed, "You don't understand. Everyone has their own way of tying someone up. For you, it's about constantly digging pits. For Tianyu, it's about trying to get closer to him, the more annoyed he gets, the more you want to get closer. The day you suddenly stop getting closer to him, he'll miss it, and that's how you succeed."
Bai Chenxue reached out and pinched his chin, "You scheming man!"
Jing Hong stroked her cheek, his eyes full of affection. "There's no way around it. Since ancient times, true feelings can't be kept, only tricks can win people's hearts. For example, when I was pursuing you, no matter how much I liked you, I didn't express it, I didn't fight or compete, I just silently did things for your own good. Even when I was seventy or eighty, I still couldn't marry you."
"Is it really going to be very difficult for Old Master Gu to get through that calamity next year?"
Jing Hong nodded. "It's difficult."
"Even Grandpa can't do anything?"
"No."
With Gu Aoting's image in her mind, Bai Chenxue was actually quite reluctant to part with that lively, enthusiastic, flamboyant, generous, worldly, and shrewd old man.
She frowned slightly and said, "It's such a pity. I used to be a little afraid of him, but I later realized that as long as we didn't have any conflicts, he was actually quite a lovely person. It would be very sad if he passed away next year."
After a long silence, Jing Hong said, "Unless..."
