Chapter 177 - Shen You’s Background
After parting with Shu Qing, Shen You and Huo Xiao drove away from Bamboo Garden.
On the way, Shen You remained silent.
Huo Xiao did not dare to say anything and could only drive quietly.
After a long while, Shen You suddenly said, "Stop the car. I want to rest for a while."
Without delay, Huo Xiao drove the car down the driveway and parked it in an open space.
Shen You pushed the car door open and got out of the car. She quietly walked toward the empty space in front of her.
Huo Xiao locked the car door and followed behind Shen You.
The two of them walked one after the other until they reached the side of the forest road not far away.
Shen You stood still and turned to look at Huo Xiao. "Do you know who Auntie Shu Is?"
Huo Xiao looked at Shen You without saying anything.
"You do know, don't You?" Shen You asked again.
Huo Xiao still didn't say a word. He just looked at Shen You.
With a self-deprecating smile, Shen You shook her head. She leaned against a tree and slowly closed her eyes.
Shen You was surprised and shocked by Shu Qing's appearance.
In her previous life, Shen You didn't see Shu Qing again. Instead, she heard about Shu Qing's identity from others.
Shu Qing was not her original name. Her real name should be Li Shuqing.
In Shen You's memories, Shu Qing often appeared by her side since she was young. She even treated her as her mother.
In reality, she was her mother's half-sister.
Shen You's surprise at seeing Shu Qing for the first time and her thoughts along the way made Shen You feel that things were not as simple as she had thought.
Huo Xiao could see that Shen You was not in the right state. He wanted to comfort her, but he did not know how.
"I just know that she has some relationship with your mother. As for the details..." Huo Xiao wanted to explain.
Shen You shook her head and said, "It's okay. I won't blame you. It's just that there are some things that I haven't figured out yet."
Shu Qing had always appeared beside the young Shen You.
Then, she suddenly left without saying goodbye.
And then, many years later, she actually appeared in front of Huo Xiao.
Shen You could only feel that there seemed to be some hidden secrets that she didn't know.
Shen You couldn't figure it out, nor did she understand why all of this was happening.
Huo Xiao looked at Shen You's distressed look and felt a little heartache.
There were still some things in his heart that he didn't know how to tell Shen You.
Shen You's background seemed to have been deliberately hidden.
As a result, Huo Xiao's mother stopped Huo Xiao from getting close to Sheng You a few times.
It seemed that Huo Xiao's mother also knew some insider information.
Shen You sobered up a little and walked towards Huo Xiao. "Let's go back. It's getting late."
Huo Xiao did not refuse and the two of them returned to the car.
Shen You sat in the car and closed her eyes without saying a word.
Huo Xiao sighed deeply. He started the car and drove home.
He did not know if he was doing the right thing.
He did not even know if he was hurting Shen You.
Huo Xiao was a little annoyed, but he could not solve it.
They drove all the way back to the coffee shop. Shen You did not say a word. She got out of the car and went straight into the shop.
Huo Xiao did not follow her. He just quietly watched Shen You's back as she left.
Maybe he really did something wrong this time.
Shen You returned to her room and threw herself on the bed, trying to wake herself up.
Today, Huo Xiao took her to see Shu Qing. Shen You always felt that someone was deliberately arranging it.
Who was the one who dug out these secrets?
And who was the one who made Shen You have to face things that she did not want to face!
Yes, Shen You had actually noticed that her background seemed to be a little different, but now she only wanted to live well!
She didn't want to participate in any intrigue or grudges between rich and powerful families!
For Shen You, living in peace was her only wish now!
Could it be that even such a small wish was difficult to fulfill?
