It is undeniable that Shan Qiyuan did raise a problem that Shan Qihuan never wanted to face.
How could he not know that Shen Yuhan had changed a lot, he had put in a lot of effort to find a reasonable explanation, didn’t he have any doubts? The more he got to know Shen Yuhan, the clearer he was than anyone else about how much he had changed.
Now, no matter how much Shen Yuhan cuts off his previous relationship with his classmates, there are still many clues, it is difficult to change a person’s habits, after living in modern times for twenty years, even if his family is no longer there, but the school will still leave traces of him.
If the former Shen Yuhan was really that good, he wouldn’t be so down and out that he was reduced to poverty and ruin1傾家蕩產 (qīng jiā dàng chǎn): to lose a family fortune (idiom); to exhaust all of a family’s financial resources; to break the bank; to bring a family to ruin; be reduced to poverty and ruin., at least Shan Qihuan had known him for so long, and he had never suffered a loss, he could even coax the picky Shan Tianfeng, and he could also deal with several mesdames of the Shan family, he never curses, and sometimes he spoke a little elegantly, the individual Shen Yuhan that he had known before was a completely two separate people.
He admits that he has a deep affection for the current Shen Yuhan, but his reason is still there, he hasn’t lost his ability to discern, moreover, his mind is getting clearer and clearer, accompanied by a little panic, what will he do if Shen Yuhan returns to his former state one day?
He didn’t dare to imagine that Shen Yuhan would change back to his former self one day, that would be a consequence he couldn’t bear.
His eldest brother is right to ask this, how much does he really know about Shen Yuhan?
Shen Yuhan still has something to hide from him, so far, he hasn’t confessed it to him yet, and he is willing to give him time.
After chatting with Shan Qiyuan for an hour, Shan Qihuan rushed back to Jiang City overnight, he pondered for a long time on the plane, his face was very bad, and the thoughts he deliberately suppressed were brought up again by his eldest brother.
After getting off the plane, and sitting in his car, Shan Qihuan received a video call from Shen Yuhan, when he saw him on the other end of the video talking excitedly about the cultural relics he saw today, Shan Qihuan’s heart, which had been drifting for the whole afternoon, calmed down again, Shen Yuhan is Shen Yuhan, he is not someone else, and it’s okay for him to change for his own sake, isn’t it? He doesn’t want to ask the reason, it’s fine to just continue to be an ostrich, it can’t be bought for one thousand in gold2千金難買 (qiān jīn nán mǎi): can’t be bought for one thousand in gold (idiom); describe something so precious that it cannot be bought with money., he’s willing!
Shan Qihuan quickly gathered his emotions: “What new work do you have today?”
“I saw a new batch of cultural relics released today, but Supervisor Liang wanted me to identify the characters in order, so she didn’t let me look at that batch for the time being.”
“Do you really want to see it?” Shan Qihuan searched for news related to the tombs of the Western Han Dynasty, two days ago a new batch was indeed dug up, there were a lot of exquisite objects, calligraphy, and paintings, he also saw a familiar word, “Is it related to that Miss Shen again, I watched the news.”
Shen Yuhan was no longer entangled in the question of whether or not Shan Qihuan would like his ancient self or not, he knew that no matter whether it was modern or ancient, he was still the same person, unchanged.
“Um, yes, the paintings on the objects unearthed this time are all his works, I saw a few of them.”
“This Miss Shen is quite impressive, why would she print her works on vases?”
Shen Yuhan’s gaze dropped to the side, paused for a moment, and said: “Because his family is memorializing him.”
Probably because Shen Yuhan is now considered a member of the archaeological team, Shan Qihuan is also interested in the story inside.
“Is he very powerful? Why does his family want to memorialize him in this way, from ancient times to the present, tomb owners have always publicized their own deeds, explaining what merits and achievements they have made in their own lives, how come they only unearthed the affairs of this tomb owner elders from this tomb, it’s really amazing, is this Miss Shen a celestial immortal?”
Shen Yuhan changed into a comfortable position, smiled, and said: “If he is a celestial immortal, then I’m also a celestial immortal, are you curious about his appearance?”
“I’m curious, I remember that the female corpse unearthed in Hunan Province had a reconstruction diagram of her appearance, if this Miss Shen’s corpse is not decomposed, we can also do it.”
“But the owner of the tomb left only his skeleton, there is no face, it is recorded in his unearthed writings that after Miss Shen’s accident, his family never found his body, so they memorialized him in various ways.”
“His family is really affectionate, whoever has such a family will be very happy, this Miss Shen must have a very happy life.” Shan Qihuan can’t help but think of his eldest brother’s words today, so what if he was born into a wealthy and powerful family, it’s not that there’s no family affection, but it’s not like genuine affection and sincere concern3情真意切 (qíng zhēn yì qiè): true love and genuine concern; genuine affection and sincere concern; the affection is very real. of the ancients.
“Do you think he is very happy?” Shen Yuhan compared his own family with the Shan family, he is indeed happy.
Shan Qihuan’s family is almost equal to nothing, and will hold him back at critical moments, while his family has been pampering him since he was a child, and will almost always respond to his requests.
Shan Qihuan considered that Shen Yuhan was angry because of a question last time, so this time he replied: “I don’t know Miss Shen either, if he feels happy, then he is happy, if he feels unhappy, then he is unhappy.”
Shen Yuhan rested his head on the pillowcase he brought with him and said with a smile: “He feels happy.”
“So sure?” Shan Qihuan arrived home, and said as he opened the door, “I’m home.”
“Has Husband had dinner yet? If you’re hungry, help yourself to a bowl of noodles.” Auntie didn’t live at home, she went back after a while, Shen Yuhan was worried about him running around all day, afraid that he didn’t get enough to eat.
“I ate something on the plane, I’m not hungry now.” In fact, he has everything at home and is not lacking, hearing his wife’s warm and soft voice, he also didn’t feel lonely at home alone, he chatted with his eldest brother for a while today and felt uncomfortable.
Shen Yuhan could sense the changes in Shan Qihuan’s mood, he always directly asked if there was a problem: “Husband, are you in a bad mood?”
“No.” Shan Qihuan still didn’t hide his thoughts from Shen Yuhan, “Actually, there is a little bit.”
“Why?” He was fine when he separated from Shen Yuhan in the morning, “What did you encounter this afternoon?”
“I went to the capital, I met my eldest brother there, and talked to him about some things about the company.” Shan Qihuan decided not to tell Shen Yuhan for the time being, lest he worry again.
“Then what can I do for you?” Shen Yuhan was a little distressed, he was in the hotel now, and couldn’t kiss his husband.
Shan Qihuan was slumped on the sofa when an idea struck him4靈機一動 (líng jī yī dòng): a bright idea suddenly occurs (idiom); to hit upon an inspiration; to be struck by a brainwave; to hit upon a clever idea; have a sudden inspiration; be seized by a sudden inspiration., his eyes shone, and all his sadness disappeared.
He found the remote control to close the curtains at home, and subconsciously lowered his voice and said: “Do you really want to help me?”
Shen Yuhan looked innocent, completely unaware of what bad ideas his husband was brewing: “Um, I don’t want my husband to be unhappy.”
“We video.” Shan Qihuan hinted at him through the video with his eyes.
“Aren’t we on video?” Shen Yuhan still didn’t understand what he meant.
Shan Qihuan reclined on the sofa, holding up his mobile phone, and smiled lightly: “Video something else.”
Shen Yuhan looked around the hotel room, the quilt on the bed was something he brought from home, and there was nothing else.
“There’s nothing to video.” He was completely confused5一頭霧水 (yī tóu wù shuǐ): to be confused; to be baffled; unable to make head or tail of sth; to be completely muddle-headed; be at sea/at a loss; be perplexed/puzzled. by his husband, “Husband, don’t be so secretive, what exactly is the video?”
Shan Qihuan was also a little embarrassed to talk about this matter, but now he especially wanted it: “I want to hear your voice.”
Shen Yuhan continued to be at a loss: “I’ve been talking to you the whole time, haven’t I?”
Shan Qihuan said in a deep voice: “Just that voice.”
Shen Yuhan paused for a moment, his ears began to heat up: “What is that voice?”
Shan Qihuan said in a hoarse voice: “Now, you will do whatever I say.”
The more Shen Yuhan listened to his voice, the hotter his body became: “Husband?”
Shan Qihuan was thinking about it now when he heard Shen Yuhan’s soft and sleepy voice, it aroused some impulse in him.
He asked: “Are you covered with a quilt?”
For some reason, Shen Yuhan couldn’t help but clench the edge of the quilt: “I’m covered.”
Shan Qihuan said softly: “Do you know where my hand is?”
“I don’t know.” His husband’s voice tickled him like a feather.
“Here.” Shan Qihuan moved the camera down, “Shen Yuhan, do as you’re told, okay?”
Shen Yuhan took one look and wanted to cover his face, he buried half of his face in the quilt that smelled of sunshine: “Husband…”
Shan Qihuan said: “I want to hear your voice, you just said you want to help me.”
“But…” That’s not what he thought either, his husband is reaching for a yard after getting an inch more and more, he shouldn’t have said those words just now, and now he simply felt like weeping but had no tears6欲哭無淚 (yù kū wú lèi): so grieved and sorrowful that one is unable to produce tears even though he or she wants to cry; tried to weep, but failed to shed a tear; felt like weeping but had no tears; (He) felt like weeping but had no tears; One wanted to cry but had no tears (left); too deep for tears..
“Be good, I want to hear your voice.”
Shen Yuhan struggled for a while and whispered: “But, but I also don’t really want to right now.”
Shan Qihuan whispered something on the edge of his mobile phone, and Shen Yuhan began to miss him: “Is that all right? Do you want to do it a little now?”
“I…” Shen Yuhan finally complied, blushing and whispering, “Then, then you can’t look at me.”
“Um, not looking at you.” His wife has always been so shy, so he won’t look at it if he doesn’t want him to, the sound is also enough to satisfy him.
…
Half an hour later, Shan Qihuan found that his wife’s voice wasn’t enough to satisfy him at all, so he might as well take a cold shower.
