Chapter 93 Wedding Anniversary
Chapter 93 Wedding Anniversary
On our wedding anniversary, I had barely gotten out of bed when Assistant Luo brought up an exquisite haute couture outfit.
Upon seeing me, he told me, "Sir, this is the dress that President Song prepared for you. She will be waiting for you at Shengding tonight."
I've been so busy finishing up drawings these past few days that I completely forgot about it.
I was puzzled when I saw Assistant Luo.
Assistant Luo understood and explained, "Wedding anniversary."
Then I remembered, nodded, and pointed to the clothes rack over there, "Hang your clothes over there."
He did as instructed, but his face was full of doubt.
He was probably thinking, "How could I have forgotten such an important day?"
After all, I used to be the one begging Song Yafei to celebrate the holidays, but this year it seems like the roles have reversed.
When I met Assistant Luo, I realized that my parents still hadn't received their painting after all this time, which was quite puzzling.
I'm also a little worried.
"How's the painting that Mr. Song asked you to buy from the Lin family's shop? When can the paperwork be completed?"
Assistant Luo's expression immediately became somewhat troubled. Could there be another reason behind this?
My heart skipped a beat, and I asked nervously, "Is something wrong?"
Assistant Luo quickly shook his head, "No, but... you should ask President Song about this."
The more he hesitated and stammered he became, the more suspicious I became.
I felt like my hopes had been dashed, so I stepped forward and grabbed Assistant Luo's hand. "What exactly went wrong? Tell me."
How could something go wrong at the last minute when it was so close to being obtained?
This made me feel very disappointed and panicked.
If we hadn't known about the painting in the first place, perhaps nothing would have happened.
But now that I know, I still can't get my hands on my parents' last works, and the thought of it makes me feel extremely guilty.
Assistant Luo broke free from his restraints. "Sir, why don't you wait until tonight and ask President Song?"
After saying that, she fled as if I were a plague.
Something went wrong!
Something must have gone wrong!
No wonder she hesitated when I asked her before; something had happened.
I wanted to call and find out what was going on, but I held back because I thought she might still be busy.
I'll ask her when I see her tonight.
I usually prepare a gift for our wedding anniversary, but I always forget when it's time.
I couldn't refuse, so I went to the study and picked out a painting I had done for her in the past.
She has money and can buy anything, but things I made myself are more meaningful.
After all, this was a painting I did for her a few years ago. It was not only beautiful and lively, but also free and unrestrained, completely different from her current state.
She must miss herself back then, right?
You should be satisfied, right?
I stayed at home all day with a feeling of unease. When the appointed time came, I changed into the clothes that Song Yafei had brought back.
When I appeared before Aunt Lin, she looked on with satisfaction, beaming from ear to ear.
"Sir, you look really handsome in that outfit!"
Song Yafei has always had good taste, but the size is still a bit too big; it's my old size.
When will she notice the changes in me?
They discovered it, but simply didn't care.
I only feel a little sentimental occasionally; I no longer have any expectations for her.
I took my family's car to Shengding, which Song Yafei had mentioned.
Upon arrival, someone took me directly to the rooftop, which was the spot Song Yafei had reserved.
When the door to the private room was pushed open, the huge room was cold and deserted.
Although there were some festive balloons and ribbons in the room, it was obvious that they were done by someone close to the family, and it was just a perfunctory effort.
They know how important I am to Song Yafei; they're just doing this to complete their mission.
Besides this private room, there is also a balcony on the top floor.
I don't know when she'll arrive, and I wanted some fresh air, so I went out onto the balcony.
Standing on the balcony, looking down, it's the 66th floor! That's really high up here!
It gives you the illusion of soaring straight into the sky, making everything below look like ants, nothing to be afraid of!
No wonder those in positions of power all like being in a high place!
But the higher you climb, the colder it gets; as I looked around, I was momentarily lost in thought.
If I jump, will it be a release?
still is……
"gentlemen!"
A strange female voice rang out behind me, disrupting my thoughts.
The woman seemed relieved. "Sir, shall we serve the food now?"
I gave her a faint smile. "Everyone's not here yet, let's wait a little longer!"
She seemed worried that I would do something foolish.
I never expected that I would wait until dark. The clock struck three, and she still hadn't arrived.
It was already 9 o'clock, and I couldn't resist calling Song Yafei.
But I couldn't get through to her, so I called Assistant Luo.
After answering the phone, Assistant Luo noticeably lowered his voice.
He comforted me, "Sir, Mr. Song is still very busy. Why don't you go home first?"
go home?
What is she busy with?
Are you busy with official business, or busy with your sweet talk with Yu Chengliang?
Ever since that incident, these thoughts keep popping into my head whenever she says she's busy.
Does she know?
Do you know there's someone waiting for her?
Assistant Luo is still waiting for my reply, but I have no intention of going back.
"Tell him I'll be here waiting for her." Then she hung up the phone.
I don't even know what I'm stubbornly clinging to? What am I waiting for?
Are we waiting for an answer or something else?
Even I don't understand it.
I'm just waiting here in the cold wind, as if I want my heart to grow colder and colder as I wait.
Until my heart stops beating for her.
I called over the waiter from earlier and said, "Open a bottle of wine for me."
"Okay, sir."
After the wine was brought out, I poured myself a drink and drank it.
Half the bottle disappeared in no time.
After I poured myself another full glass of wine, the waitress couldn't stand it anymore and came over and said something rather cautiously.
"Sir, how about I order some snacks for you to go with your drinks? Drinking like this... is bad for your stomach."
Does it upset my stomach?
My stomach is no longer useful.
But I didn't refuse their kindness. "Okay, order me a few dishes."
Soon, four dishes were delivered downstairs, but I didn't have much of an appetite. I ate a few bites now and then, but the food tasted bland and tasteless.
Drinking with the wind in your mouth has a unique charm.
However, the alcohol was not very good for my stomach, and I was already feeling a little uncomfortable, but I still kept sipping it.
"waiter……"
The bottle is empty, but I'll order another one.
Why did you drink so much?
Turning my head, I saw the person I had been waiting for so long, Song Yafei, who had rushed over looking travel-worn. I put down my wine glass.
"Have you eaten?"
Song Yafei stared at the remaining food on the plate, frowning unhappily.
