Chapter 101 101: Living with regrets and choices

Are there...are there dogs?

This adjective made Shang Yan's eyes twitch slightly, and a helpless smile appeared in his eyes, "Have you decided where to go camping?"

Xu Li nodded, "Think about it. I made a brief guide on the Internet before when I was waiting for the scene on the set. Xilu Mountain is good. Moreover, you can also fish and watch stars at night. The astronomical and meteorological station also said tomorrow

There will be shooting stars at night!”

"Well, what time will we leave tomorrow?"

"How about we have a birthday meal at home at noon and then set off to Xilu Mountain in the afternoon?"

"Well, it's up to you."

Xu Li was actually very sleepy, but while scrolling through her cell phone and staring at the time, she forced herself to hold up her eyelids to prevent herself from falling asleep.

Shang Yan was lying next to her, holding her laptop and doing business. She noticed that the person next to her was so sleepy that her eyelids were clenching. Thinking of her hard work these days, she said, "Don't wait for me. If you're sleepy, go to bed first. I'll take this."

Go to bed when you’re done.”

"It's okay, I'm not sleepy." Xu Li squinted her eyes and gave him a faint smile.

He pursed his lips, finally closed the computer, put it on the bedside table, turned off the lamp, lay down, snatched her phone away, put it aside, and hugged her tightly.

"Go to sleep."

Xu Li was stunned for a moment, her lips curled up into a smile, and she arched her arms into his arms with satisfaction. In her sleepy state, she murmured, "Shang Yan."

"Yeah." He placed his chin on the top of her hair and responded softly.

"Happy birthday."

This sentence was very soft and soft, as if it was said without any consciousness.

She kept working hard, just wanting to wait until midnight to be the first person to say this to him.

But she was too tired these past few days and didn't get a good rest at night. She was really sleepy. Plus, with him by her side, the familiar light pine scent made her feel at ease. It was like a sleeping scent.

She fell asleep immediately.

After hearing this, Shang Yan curled his lips and smiled, lowered his eyes to look at her sleeping face, his eyes became more gentle and affectionate, and finally he placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

He felt her care and her intentions.

The next morning, Xu Li got up early and asked Uncle Lin to prepare the camping equipment. She also watched the kitchen preparing for the noon birthday party and asked the servant to get the cake she ordered yesterday.

I also happily bought several bunches of lisianthus and sunflowers in vases.

As a result, around ten o'clock, a phone call from the merchant's old house immediately extinguished all her enthusiasm and excitement.

Han Qianyue asked the two of them to go back to their old house, saying that they wanted to make a living for Shang Yan.

Xu Li was stunned for a few seconds, thinking that she might not be able to go to the camping trip in the afternoon. If the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, all the work would be in vain.

Although they felt disappointed in their hearts, they thought that as parents, Han Qianyue and Shang Zhihuai had lived abroad all year round and rarely came back to celebrate their son's birthday. Now it was their son's first birthday after they returned to China to settle down.

It's human nature that they don't want to miss out.

There will be more camping opportunities in the future, and it doesn’t have to be on his birthday.

In this way, Xu Li comforted herself and felt less uncomfortable. Looking at the remaining unfinished flowers, she rewrapped them and brought them back to her old house with the cake to share with her family.

Shang Yan also saw her disappointment, and without hesitation, he turned around and called Han Qianyue. As soon as the call was connected, he directly said, "If you don't go back, Xu Li and I will spend time together."

This sentence immediately stunned Han Qianyue. She understood that the young couple needed private space, but she had learned baking for more than ten or twenty days for her youngest son's birthday.

After thinking for a while, and just as he was about to patiently persuade me, Shang Zhihuai snatched the phone away.

"Your mother made you a birthday cake with her own hands today and even cooked for you. This is the first birthday your mother and I have celebrated since we remarried. Your mother has not made it for me in the past decades.

You are the first to receive a birthday cake, so don’t be ignorant!"

Although there was anger in his words, there was even more sourness.

In the wife's heart, her son is still more important than him.

Of course, even if she wanted to cook for him, he would be reluctant to do so, but... she was still a little sad.

Shang Yan pursed his lips and was about to say something. Xu Li immediately snatched the phone away and glared at him angrily, "Mom and Dad, we'll be right over."

After hanging up the phone, she put the phone back into his hand, "My parents must also be looking forward to celebrating your birthday with you, especially mom. She went abroad after the divorce. Because of your grandfather, she didn't participate well.

Your childhood is a kind of compensation for her. You have to give her this opportunity so that she will not feel so guilty and self-blame."

"She feels the same way about your eldest brother, but at least they live together now and can care about your eldest brother all the time. But you are different. You have a lot of work every day and have your own small family, so in this special

During these days, she also wanted to do something within her power to make up for the shortcomings in her heart."

"Mom's life... is actually quite difficult. In the first half of my life, I fought with your grandfather and ended up getting divorced. Fortunately, dad has a soft spot for her and has deep feelings for her, so he didn't let her down."

From the perspective of an ordinary woman, Xu Li really feels sorry for her mother-in-law Han Qianyue.

Outsiders thought that Han Qianyue, an orphan girl, could marry into a wealthy family due to luck, but her life was not easy after she got married. She had a stubborn and stubborn father-in-law who always wanted her to divorce.

Later, I finally made up my mind to escape the sea of ​​suffering, but I felt sorry for my son.

She spent most of her life with various regrets and choices.

Although Xu Li has not experienced this, she has also experienced pain and despair, and she is also an actor, so her empathy will be more intuitive.

Of course she also knew what Shang Yan was thinking at this time, it was just that she didn't want to see me rejoice in vain.

After all, she got up and started working before eight o'clock in the morning. She even looked at every ingredient used in the kitchen.

But compared to Han Qianyue, she felt that her contribution was nothing at all, and naturally it was incomparable.

She smiled and took his arm, her tone seemed to be coquettish, but also seemed to be submissive, "I'm fine, no big deal, we will go camping again when it's my birthday. At normal times, as long as we are free, we can

Anyone can go."

"good."

As a son, Shang Yan certainly saw his mother's hardships and felt pain in his heart. However, in the final analysis, her mother's misfortune in the first half of her life was caused by his father.

So when his mother decided to divorce, he supported her.

"By the way, I prepared a birthday gift for you. It's upstairs. I'll get it instead of taking it to the old house." Xu Li suddenly remembered, put down these words and ran upstairs.

.

Out of curiosity, Shang Yan followed him up.

When he saw the Louis Vuitton brand bag in her hand, he smiled and asked, "When did you prepare it?"
