Promise You a Prosperous Life

C51

After separating from Lu Gang, I once again thought about the story between Yu Mo Yi and Duran Xin about the dried up well.

Sometimes it was Yu Mo's helplessness when he fell in, sometimes it was Yu Mo Yi's surprise when Duran Xin arrived, and sometimes it was the scene of two young children trying to overcome the difficulty of climbing out. The more he thought about it, the clearer it became, as if it had just happened.

When my determination reaches a certain point, there will always be a moment of enlightenment. Suddenly, I realize that Yu Mo's feelings for Duran Xin is probably more of the literal words' grace to save one's life '. Thus, the depressed feeling in my heart was immediately cleared up and I felt less uncomfortable.

On Tuesday, when Yu Mo and I were getting married again, we were going to treat our weekly day as a "lucky day" and planned to go to the movie theater to see the movie just released.

Due to my previous suspicions, I had somewhat neglected Yu Mo. Thus, I thought about how I would be able to show off after coming to the cinema and make up for my relationship. Unexpectedly, the opportunity had come earlier.

Just as he was about to leave, Yu Mo Yi's company called him. He sounded rather anxious, and when he hung up, he became hesitant. "Wife, I —"

I immediately said magnanimously, "It's alright. You can rest assured that I'll go buy a ticket first and then obediently wait for your return."

Yu Mo hugged me gratefully and said repeatedly before leaving, "My wife, don't worry. I'll be back in an hour. If you're bored, buy a bag of popcorn and eat it."

I watched him leave with a smile, then went into the cinema and bought an hour's worth of tickets according to the time. Then I bought a bag of popcorn according to Yu Mo's instructions and ate it as I waited for him to come back.

More than an hour had passed, and I had already finished eating my popcorn. The movie was about to be released, and Yu Mo Yi hadn't come back yet. There wasn't even a phone call in the middle of it.

Maybe it was because I was too concerned about today's movie. The longer it went on, the more I would think about something bad like a car accident. I couldn't bear it any longer and gave Yu Mo a call.

In the midst of my anxiety, the phone finally connected. As long as nothing happened to Yu Mo, I calmed my heart down a little. In that instant, I still felt a little weird. Or is there something else? "

Yu Mo answered simply, "Busy. We'll talk about it when we get back." After that, he hung up.

I held the phone in a daze. What was so urgent that Yu Mo didn't even have time to explain? However, thinking that it wasn't a rest day today, and that it was understandable if there were urgent matters, he forcefully suppressed the urge to make another phone call.

It was boring for me to watch a movie by myself, and I remembered that there was just about a mid- and high-end shopping mall nearby. There was bound to be some sort of special event there, so why don't I go buy some household goods so I could buy some good stuff and spend less money? So I got up and left the theater and went to the mall.

When I arrived, I was a little disappointed. The shopping mall did have some activities, but they were not too strong. Some of them were not even as good as the things in my supermarket.

I picked up a few things and was about to leave when I saw Yu Mo Yi's car parked in the parking lot off the main entrance. Yu Mo Yi also walked out with his long legs, and I couldn't help feeling excited. Did Yu Mo Yi come to pick me up?

Very quickly, I knocked on my forehead. I was really old and muddle-headed. Did Yu Mo have a clairvoyant appearance? How did he know I was shopping here? The most likely possibility was that he happened to be here for an errand.

Even so, I was happy. Smiling, I took out my phone and was about to call him, telling him that I was inside the mall and that I wanted to tease him that this was what we called being enemies.

Before I could dial the full number, I saw the passenger door open and a woman step out.

The woman was tall and slender, with fair skin. However, her hair was naturally black, and her whole body gave people a clean and untainted feeling.

The woman had been smiling quietly and steadily ever since she got out of the car, but somehow, seeing her like this, she couldn't help but frown.

The reason I did this was because the woman didn't get out of the backseat, but from the passenger seat. If that was the case, she shouldn't have been so calm.

Folk had long since spread that the latest technique to capture "Xiao San" was not to go to a hotel room, but to see who would sit in the passenger seat of their husband's car. This was because the opposite sex would usually choose the rear seat when sitting in a man's car.

Furthermore, Yu Moyi's girlfriend was related to the company's business and wasn't particularly close to it. Who was this woman? What was her relationship with Yu Mo?

Or was Yu Mo the one who had contacted her after her work at the company, abandoning me to the cinema on the sensitive day of Tuesday?

Suddenly, the name "Durangxin" popped up in my mind. My heart leapt up and my hand that was dialing stopped stiffly.

Subconsciously, like a thief with a guilty conscience, I quickly hid behind the right door and peeked.

I wanted to observe their actions further to verify that my thoughts were correct before deciding whether to rush out to defend my rights.

As soon as Yu Mo locked the car door and entered the mall, a waitress wearing a promotional banner with a lottery box stopped them when they were just inches away from the entrance. She then spoke to Yu Mo Yi and the woman warmly.

Although I couldn't hear the words clearly, I could tell that the waitress wanted them to participate in the lottery. The woman looked at the waitress sympathetically and opened her mouth to say something.

Instinctively, I leaned forward as far as I could to hear what the woman was saying, even if it was just her voice, just as a customer came out of the mall, opened the door, and heard her last words.

"Mo Yi, even if it's for Lan'er, just pick one."

The woman's voice was like an unhurried stream of water. It sounded very comfortable, but I was shocked by the words "Lan'er". She really was Duran Xin, Yu Mo Yi's savior. It's no wonder that Yu Mo would abandon me to choose her.

My heart was thumping, and for a moment I didn't care to show myself, but at the same time I had the unwillingness to see the whole thing happen, and I suppressed my emotions and stared at them with my good eye.

Yu Mo Yi's unsmiling expression of rejection softened upon hearing Du Lan Xin's words. After a moment of hesitation, he reached his hand into the lottery box. The prize drawn by Yu Mo Yi turned out to be a small ring.

The waitress smiled and encouraged Yu Mo to put it on for her. Du Lan Xin looked to the side with a blushing face. Yu Mo Yi looked embarrassed, but in a moment, Yu Mo took the ring from her hand and placed it on the ring finger of her right hand.

I was stunned, not only did I lower my head to look at the ring on the ring finger of my right hand. Yu Mo bought that ring for me, so I still couldn't forget what he said and did.

Yu Mo asked me to stretch out the five fingers of my right hand, to bend the middle finger, and then to separate the other fingers. I didn't understand what he meant, so I foolishly pressed on them, but the thumb, index finger, and pinky all smoothly pulled to one side, except for the ring finger, which didn't budge at all.

Yu Mo knocked me on the forehead, said the ring on the ring finger is not all about marriage, and also symbolized that we will be together for the rest of our lives, will never leave each other.

I did not believe that Yu Mo would forget all this so soon. I had hoped that Yu Mo would place the ring on the woman's other fingers, but everything was my hope.

Shocked, I watched them walk into the mall side by side, but in the end didn't have the courage to come out from behind the door.

As I dragged my sore legs out, the theme song "Former 3" played in the mall sounded harsh and tactile.

I can't say love, don't lie, just like a little, I can't say hate, don't get entangled, don't pretend to sigh, understand everything, forgive everything, I tried to find an answer, and the answer was simple, so simple that it was regretful, because we were forced to get used to it, because because we grew up, and then from time to time, we would just let it go.

As I listened, my tears flowed. Perhaps it was due to the release of my repressed emotions, or perhaps this song had enlightened me. After coming out of the mall, I shook my head furiously and threw all those pretentious emotions to the back of my mind, before smiling coquettishly.

Wasn't it just an ex? Who hasn't? I am Yu Moyi's present and future. If that's the case, then what do I have to fear?

After understanding the situation, I completely buried the name 'Duran Xin' in my heart and decided that I should eat and sleep. I should go to the supermarket to work, but of course, I still had to treat Yu Mo Yi the same way.

I thought that her appearance was like a gust of wind that would soon disappear from my life with Yu Moyi. But as it turned out, I underestimated the war between the two women, and I also underestimated her.
