MTL - After Playing the Fool and Marrying the Blind Villain [Transmigration]-Chapter 102

When Pei Yi woke up, Bo Yueming was still sleeping.

Last night, the lover drank a lot of wine alone, and the two hugged each other and chatted until the second half of the night. It was rare for them to fall asleep at this moment.

Pei Yi stared at Bo Yueming's side face, slowly regained her rationality after sleeping, and kissed the corner of his mouth lightly in the morning before going into the bathroom to wash up.

"Meow~"

"Shh, be good."

Pei Yi cautiously opened the door of the master bedroom, and the detective who rarely slept late followed him out.

In the restaurant on the first floor, Uncle Kai prepared an exquisite breakfast as usual.

Lin Zhong, who was eating, saw Pei Yi and hurriedly greeted him, "Xiao Mister, are you up? Where's Bo Dong?"

Pei Yi sat in his usual position and said, "Still resting, does he have any work arrangements today?"

Lin Zhong kept Bo Yueming's work arrangement in mind, and shook his head, "Not much, Director Bo has privately explained that if the third lady can handle the affairs, there is no need to send him here."

Pei Yi understood Bo Yueming's good intentions hidden under these words, and said bluntly, "Help me put off all his work today, and let him have a good rest for a day."

Uncle Kai brought up the fried steak, and asked worriedly, "Little Mister, did Second Young Master encounter any difficulties? I don't think you were in the right state when you came back last night."

And when he was cleaning up upstairs this morning, he also found the wine bottle in the small living room.

Uncle Kai didn't know much about wine, but he recognized the brand of the empty wine bottle, and it was always Bo Yueming's favorite to use to get himself drunk when encountering difficulties and worries.

Pei Yi took a sip of warm water, "His biological mother is here."

"..."

Uncle Kai and Lin Zhong were surprised at the same time.

As Bo Yueming's most trusted housekeeper and subordinate, the two of them already existed like family members. They would not spread this matter casually, and were more worried about Bo Yueming's emotions.

Lin Zhong hesitated to speak, "What, what is this?"

Uncle Kai was also nervous, "Second Young Master's biological mother is still alive? Then what is she going to do in China to find Second Young Master at this time? Does the old lady know?"

Pei Yi didn't have the appetite to eat, so she just touched the inspector on her lap, "Grandma probably doesn't know yet, but I'm also curious why she came to China..."

He paused, his eyes shifted unconsciously towards the master bedroom on the second floor, "Lin Zhong, I have something to ask you to do."

Lin Zhong was moved, "Mr. Xiao, I understand."

Pei Yi nodded slightly, and after a few brief explanations, he changed the topic to daily life, "Uncle Kai, did the kitchen make porridge today?"

Uncle Kai nodded, "Yes, I thought you guys should have had a drink last night, so I cooked it up and prepared some."

Hearing this, Pei Yi ordered, "Let's make porridge and side dishes, and this steak. I'll take it to eat with my second brother later."

"Okay, Mr. Little."

…

ten minutes later.

Pei Yi returned to the small living room on the second floor with a full plate.

When the detective saw Bo Yueming coming out of the master bedroom, he immediately greeted him, "Meow~"

Pei Yi turned her head and met Bo Yueming's gaze with a smile, "Second Brother, when did you wake up? I was thinking of going into the room to wake you up."

Bo Yueming approached and hugged his lover, and buried his face in his neck again, "I woke up not long after you got up, I can't sleep well without holding you."

He is 1.9 meters tall, and he is clingy when he says he is clingy.

Pei Yi rubbed his head with some enjoyment, and asked, "Then why didn't I see you looking for me 'in a hurry'? Are you not afraid that I will sneak away?"

Bo Yueming kissed his earlobe with a trace of pleasure, "Don't be afraid, you said you would stay with me forever."

And when he went into the bathroom to wash up, he found that his lover had prepared dental kits for him in advance, and the small details in life can always make people feel the warmth of being loved.

"Meow~ow!"

The inspector, who was so greedy for the smell of breakfast, saw the two masters hugging each other, and couldn't bear it anymore, he approached and complained, "Aww!"

Pei Yi lowered her head and saw her little greedy cat's eager eyes, and couldn't help laughing, "Second brother, shall we have breakfast first?"

Bo Yueming also heard the inspector's urging, "Okay, I'll open a canned fish for the inspector."

"Um."

The two enjoyed their rare free time while eating breakfast.

Pei Yi looked at Bo Yueming who was drinking porridge, thought for a while, and decided to tell the truth, "Second brother, I want to meet her instead of you, is that okay?"

Once the word "she" is exported, it has a very clear direction.

Bo Yueming paused slightly while drinking the porridge, his eyes darkened.

Pei Yi took the initiative to put down the knife and fork, and held his hand forward, "I don't want you to be trapped by the questions in your heart for a lifetime, even if the answer is bad, I will face it with you, okay?"

Bo Yueming held his hand instead, still thinking silently.

Pei Yi promised again, "Second brother, anyone may leave you, but I won't."

The trouble should end it.

Bo Yueming understands this better than anyone else, and he also understands the imprint the other party left on his heart better than anyone else.

He met his lover who was full of eyes, and responded in a low voice, "Okay."

…

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Moka Cafe.

It was clearly normal business hours, but there was a sign "Closed for private use" on the door.

Cynthia tightly held the small bag in her hand, and carefully stepped onto the box area on the second floor under the leadership of the staff.

Once the white gauze curtain was opened, she could clearly see the figure inside the box.

Pei Yi met Cynthia's eyes and stood up, "Hi, I'm Will, and my Chinese name is Pei Yi."

"You, hello."

Cynthia recognized Pei Yi's face, but still secretly scanned the other boxes outside with hidden expectations.

Pei Yi understood her intention, and explained quietly, "He didn't come, so I came."

There was a glimmer of light in Cynthia's eyes, which quickly disappeared again.

Pei Yi gestured to her in fluent English, "Ms. Cynthia, please sit down, I ordered ice American espresso for you in advance, is that okay?"

This is Bo Yueming's favorite type of coffee.

"Thanks."

Cynthia didn't refuse, but looked at the young man opposite with a look that was not impolite, "You, are you Yue Ming's lover?"

The word "Yue Ming" pronounced in Chinese is a bit slow, but it is very standard, as if carefully practiced.

Pei Yi suddenly remembered Bo Yueming's resistance to the "Ryan" yesterday, and suddenly there was a hint of speculation in his heart.

He looked at Cynthia on the opposite side and replied, "It's not a lover, it's a lover. He and I are the kind of lovers who want to get married and spend the rest of our lives."

"spouse?"

When Cynthia heard this more intimate and firm address, a gleam of water floated in her eyes, "That's great, I wish you all the best."

Soon, the waiter brought up the iced American espresso.

Cynthia thanked the waiter politely, as if to break the silence, and said, "When I was young, I almost had a glass of this concentrated ice Americano every day."

Because the low-quality condensed ice Americano on the street is very cheap, and the cup is big enough to support her energy for a whole day.

Cynthia seemed to be caught in some kind of memory, "The more you know him, he always liked to take a sip secretly when he was a child, and then frowned with bitterness."

Hearing her statement, Pei Yi thought of Bo Yueming drinking coffee every day without changing his face. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether the years left a mark on a person, or changed a person's habits.

"Ms. Cynthia, please forgive my bluntness. I will invite you to meet today because I want to clarify some things from the position of his lover."

Pei Yi got up early and asked Lin Zhong to find a way to contact Cynthia, and the other party went to the hotel yesterday to inquire, only to find out that the other party also left contact information at the front desk.

After Lin Zhong issued an invitation to meet in the afternoon instead of Pei Yi, Cynthia agreed almost immediately.

Cynthia stroked the rim of the coffee cup, as if she had already prepared, "Yes, I guessed it."

Pei Yi didn't deliberately mention Bo Yueming's longing and pain these years, but just acted as a qualified listener.

"You can speak slowly, and I can listen slowly, but only—"

"If you still have a little bit of his place in your heart, please don't lie, can you?"

"..."

May I?

Why not?

Cynthia took a deep breath, "When I was in college, I met Bo Lihong. He was more considerate than any suitor I've ever known. I fell into the sweetness he gave almost uncontrollably."

From acquaintance to falling in love, from falling in love to a sudden marriage proposal.

Bo Lihong even promised her that he would formally get married after graduating from university.

"But once the love period was over, our quarrels became more and more day by day, and every time we quarreled, there was a cold war. When I was young, I didn't understand, but later I realized that it was his method to force me to break up."

Pei Yi frowned incredulously. There was no need to doubt that Bo Lihong was a scumbag.

"The last time we quarreled was on the anniversary of our relationship. We just had a very good night, but the next day we quarreled very hard, but that time he never came back."

Bo Lihong returned to Huaguo without saying goodbye, which also declared the complete end of this relationship.

"I tried my best to let go of this relationship under the persuasion of my friends, but within two months, I found out that I was pregnant."

She obviously took safety measures, but God seemed to have played a huge joke on her.

"I have suffered and struggled, but in the end I am still unwilling."

One reason is that Cynthia still has nostalgia for her first love, Bo Lihong, and the other reason is that Cynthia is a very honest Christian.

She is not willing to hurt an innocent life.

It's just that it turns out that people always have to pay the corresponding price for their choices.

"Not long after Yueming was born, my father passed away, and my mother has been suffering from high blood sugar, which is not suitable for long-term labor and requires long-term medical expenses."

"Although the family had savings at that time, they couldn't just watch it run out."

Under such circumstances, Cynthia, who was already on a leave of absence, had to drop out of school for the sake of her child, and this was the beginning of her ordeal—

Single mother, did not graduate, still majored in art.

In order to take care of Bo Yueming, who was still in her infancy, Cynthia had a hard time finding a job. Occasionally, when Bo Yueming fell ill, she needed leave to accompany her.

"But I don't feel bitter, and I don't think about regretting it. I just hope that he can grow up early, so that I can spend more time on work and save more money."

It's a pity that the sky fails to fulfill people's wishes.

"Yue Ming may not even remember it himself. When he was five years old, he had a severe respiratory infection and he still had a high fever. That time almost exhausted my savings."

"After half a year, my mother passed away."

"Later, I learned from my neighbor that she couldn't bear to see me working so hard, and in order to save money for me and Yueming, she stopped taking the drugs that had been used to lower blood sugar."

Speaking of this, Cynthia still couldn't hide her sobs.

If she could still hold on when her mother was alive, then the death of her mother completely crushed her.

Cynthia's mood became more negative and gloomy day by day, and she began to have uncontrollable regrets, regretting why she fell in love with Bo Lihong, and why she gave birth to Bo Yueming?

Obviously, I am pretty good looking, and I can have a better and wider world if I persist in my studies.

"I realized that I should be mentally ill, but I don't have money for treatment, and I don't want treatment."

Cynthia began to give up on herself, and finally, even the presence of Bo Yueming couldn't arouse her thoughts, "On Yueming's sixth birthday, I did a stupid thing—"

As the listener, Pei Yi spoke for the first time, "He said you took him to the beach and sat on the rocks by the coast for a long time?"

"Yes, because I want to take him..."

Cynthia took a deep breath, with a complex expression and regret, "Just leave this world."

"..."

Pei Yi remained silent.

Bo Yueming's guess back then was correct, and Cynthia actually had the impulsive idea of ​​"taking him away together".

Cynthia covered her face.

Even when she thought about it again, she still felt that she was selfish and stupid back then, "I was afraid that I would not be able to live without him, so that's why I had that immature idea."

It was just Bo Yueming's repeated "Mom" that made her stop this stupid and impulsive thought.

Cynthia said frankly, "I can't bear him, but I can't live anymore."

So, she sent a letter to her friend overnight, attaching what she found out about Bo Lihong's family situation and address in China, and then left Bo Yueming, who was only six years old, at home alone.

Cynthia knew that she was a cowardly mother, and her only courage left her to die as she wanted.

Pei Yi has a deeper understanding of the past of the mother and son, "And then?"

Cynthia no longer concealed, "When I woke up again, I was in the hospital."

Cynthia still chose to jump into the sea, but unfortunately, she was rescued by a passing sea swimmer.

Because of pulmonary edema and infection caused by excessive drowning, she remained in a coma for nearly 20 days in the hospital, and it was already a month later when she fully regained consciousness.

"I found out later that my friend didn't receive my letter immediately, and Yueming lived alone in the house for a week."

Cynthia couldn't help but her eyes were red, but the only thing that could comfort her was—

Mrs. Bo recognized this child as Bo Yueming. With Bo's assets, her son at least had enough food and clothing.

It's just that Cynthia doesn't know the internal grievances of the Bo family, let alone the difficult situation that Bo Yueming faced when he "arrived for the first time".

"After I came back from hell, I didn't feel lucky, but fell into a more extreme impulse to end my own life."

As Cynthia said, she slowly eased the watch on her left hand.

Twice, each deeper than the first.

Even the second time is based on the first time.

"..."

Pei Yi stared at the scar on her wrist, and immediately understood what she wanted to express.

Cynthia didn't explain her pain too much, she just passed it off lightly, "God didn't take me in, and gave me the chance to live again and again."

And what really made Cynthia stand up was her current husband, the man who rescued Cynthia from the sea.

"He accompanies me to heal my mental illness slowly, to recover my body slowly, and to walk out of the haze slowly with me."

"I didn't believe in love at first, and I rejected it many times, but Aaron really stayed with him for eight years, and I finally nodded and agreed to be with him."

"He's not rich, but I know he really loves me."

Cynthia stroked the ring on her ring finger lightly, "We didn't hold a wedding, nor did we have any children."

Pei Yi was taken aback, "No children?"

Cynthia smiled bitterly, "I gave up on Yueming back then, and I'm not worthy of being a mother anymore in this life."

If he had another biological child, wouldn't it be more ironic to abandon Bo Yueming?

Husband Aaron chose to respect Cynthia's decision and put her emotionally and physically first.

"Until the year before last, the two of us rescued a little boy who wanted to end his life at the beach."

The other party's parents divorced and each formed a new family.

"We, we adopted him."

After Pei Yi heard Cynthia's long but simple twenty years, she couldn't see the slightest expectation in her eyes.

He paused, but still asked the last question, "Then why do you want to come to Yueming again now? In the past twenty years, you really never paid attention to him?"

Cynthia shook her head, "It can be said to be letting go, or it can be said to be another kind of escape. I will regularly inquire about Yueming's news. I know that he has become very outstanding and dazzling."

The only thing Cynthia dared not do was to appear in front of Bo Yueming.

After all, the other party already has a brand new family and relatives, and her appearance may only cause harm and burden.

"Maybe it's because I'm getting old. During this period of time, I often dreamed about him, and I thought about him more and more. My husband saw my thoughts, so he encouraged me to come to China."

Cynthia remembered Bo Yueming's misunderstanding of herself last night, and explained earnestly, "I don't want your money, I just want to take another look at him from a distance."

Because Bo's reputation is too great in the imperial capital, Cynthia happened to meet Mrs. Bo's birthday banquet after arriving in Huaguo.

"Last night's birthday party requires an invitation letter to enter. I originally planned to wait in a small corner of the hotel lobby and secretly take a look at him after the party."

Even just one look is enough.

"But I didn't expect that I saw Bo Lihong first."

Cynthia thought that she had already let go, but when she saw the real person, she realized that the hurt accumulated in her heart would still explode after many years.

When Bo Lihong saw Cynthia rushing up, he fled slowly as if he had seen a ghost, and then there was the scene that both Pei Yi and Bo Yueming saw—

Bo Lihong fled, but Cynthia, who was chasing impulsively, bumped into the two of them head-on.

Cynthia knew that she should turn around and hide, but facing her biological son whom she had not seen for more than 20 years, her words and deeds were almost out of her control.

"sorry."

"I regret that my appearance caused him harm. I'm really sorry."

Cynthia covered her face and apologized in a low voice, her heart ached as if cut by a knife.

Pei Yi handed over the tissue, and the thousand words were reduced to one sentence, "Thank you for being willing to tell me all this truthfully."

Cynthia shook her head.

As a mother, she owed too much to Bo Yueming.

"Ms. Cynthia, what I'm about to say may hurt a little bit, but I hope you understand."

To put it simply, Pei Yi has changed from a listener to a master of the topic again.

"You and Yue Ming are already two parallel lines that can no longer intersect. The damage caused when you were a child cannot be completely healed with a few words."

"Just like you said, you already have families, so please keep this strangeness and stop disturbing each other, okay?"

Knowing the truth does not mean that the damage can be completely cleared.

Pei Yi's tone was firm, "You have already missed his life, and I will accompany him throughout the rest of his life."

Cynthia didn't have any dissatisfaction because of his straightforwardness, she knew that "not disturbing each other" was the real ending for the two of them.

"Mr. Will, you'll always love him, won't you?"

"yes."

Cynthia got the answer she wanted and got up slowly.

She bowed to Pei Yi, "Thank you for coming to see me instead of him, then I won't bother you. May God bless you all with happiness in your life."

Pei Yi didn't try to persuade her to stay, "Yes."

Cynthia didn't bother anymore, but opened the gauze curtain and walked out, but when she went downstairs, she fixedly looked in Pei Yi's direction twice more.

The sound of going down the stairs gradually faded away.

Pei Yi looked at the untouched condensed American style, got up and walked to the next room with her back facing, "Second brother."

Bo Yueming sat quietly on the sofa, and the same cup of untouched condensed Americano was placed on the table.

Pei Yi didn't say anything, but just approached and hugged him.

Feeling the warmth brought by his lover, Bo Yueming hugged him tightly without saying a word.

Pei Yi comforted in a low voice, "Second brother, it's time to let go, okay?"

Bo Yueming closed his eyes, and it took him a long time to say, "Okay."

…

In the open-air parking lot, Cynthia hid silently behind a large seven-seater car.

Time passed minute by minute, until Bo Yueming and Pei Yi walked out of the coffee shop holding hands.

As she wished, Cynthia picked up her mobile phone and remotely took a photo of the two of them walking hand in hand. She stared at the passing vehicle, looked at this unclear photo again and again, and burst into tears.

Maybe it's a natural instinct,

As early as the first time she entered the box, she sensed that Bo Yueming must be there.

Those confessions and apologies without any falsehood were what she told Pei Yi, and she also told Bo Yueming.

— sizzle.

The communication sound on the software rang.

Seeing her husband's call, Cynthia immediately connected the phone, "Aaron."

Aaron's voice on the phone was gentle, "Have you seen him?"

"seen."

With tears in her eyes, Cynthia replied with a smile, "He has a lover who can be with him for the rest of his life, and they are very good."

Aaron was happy for her happiness, and asked cautiously, "Then you tell them about your physical condition?"

Cynthia sighed softly, and replied truthfully, "No, I never thought of telling him, Aaron, my life is coming to an end, but he is not."

She is content to see the child's last side before the operation.

Aaron on the other end of the phone fell silent for a long time before replying in a gentle but firm tone, "Honey, I'll wait for your return at the hotel, and then we'll go back to China together."

Even if his lover's cancer has reached the late stage of the countdown, he is willing to accompany the other person to the last second of life.

Cynthia shed tears, and finally walked in the opposite direction to Bo Yueming, "Okay."

Cynthia knew that she was not a good mother, but she was very grateful to Mrs. Bo for teaching Bo Yueming to be the best, and Pei Yi also gave Bo Yueming the best love and company.

In this way, it is enough.
