Chapter 88 Acceptance

  Meng'er sat quietly on the ground, her head buried in her arms, completely ignoring the fierce knocking sound outside the door.

  It was unknown how long it took, but there was no more movement outside the door. However, a voice came from outside: "Meng Er, open the door, I'll tell you the truth!"

  "I guarantee it!"

  "I guarantee it with my personal integrity!"

  Meng'er got up and opened the door. Then, Meng'er saw that Jing Tianyou was holding a thick stack of newspapers in his hand. On top of it was a letter, which was opened to reveal her elder brother's handwriting.

  "Meng Er, by the time you read this letter, everything should have calmed down. However, no matter what you see, please don't come back. Live a good life in Seattle and listen to your brother's words."

  Meng'er put down the letter she had finished reading, one by one, and quietly put the newspaper back in order under the gaze of Qing Tianyou.

  "You imitated my brother's self-portrait quite well, and these newspapers must have taken you a lot of effort, right?" Meng'er raised her head, looking into Xing Tianyou's eyes, and asked with a smile.

  "Meng er, it's true..."

  Meng'er heard this and was stunned for a few minutes. She got up, went downstairs, and the things that were scattered all over the floor had been cleaned up, and various dishes were rearranged on the table, but only dumplings were missing.

  Meng'er sat quietly beside the table, finished eating, and then quietly returned to her room...

  The next day, Jing Tianyou left, and Meng'er didn't leave the house except for meals; a week later, the situation was still the same; more than two weeks later, one day after breakfast, Meng'er asked Wang Ayi for her phone and dialed Jing Tianyou's number.

  "You can ask me to do anything and I'll agree! But please ensure the safety of my elder brother and father!"

  The other side was silent for a long time before finally transmitting a voice saying: "I will!"

  Then, there was a long silence again. Meng Er finally spoke up: "Withdraw those bodyguards, I won't do anything stupid, I'll stay here obediently!" Jing Tianyou still didn't respond, the long silence made Meng Er hang up the phone. However, the next day when she went out again, no one stopped her anymore. Only, Jing Tianyou still wouldn't let her use her mobile phone, and still wouldn't connect the internet to the computer in her room. But for her, these things were completely unimportant now!

  "This is Seattle, a city known as the Rain City, located in the western coastal area of Washington State, which is considered one of the most livable and workable places in the United States. I hope you like it!" Tianyu said to Meng'er when he was leaving, but Meng'er didn't even lift her eyelids at that time. Because this city, no matter how livable, was not her destination. And now, she had no idea where her destination was?

  Meng walked and walked, got tired, didn't care about the misty fine rain wetting the chair by the road, and sat down straight!

  "The stool is wet!" A thick voice reached Meng's ears, but it didn't get much response from her. She still sat there stupidly, letting the misty rain slowly soak her hair. "Long time no see, I didn't expect that Meng who was drinking heroically not long ago would become a melancholic little girl now!"

  These words finally made Meng Er look up and see the face of the person who came. "Le Feng?"

  "You say, let your sisters see you now, how sad they would be!" Le Feng continued, disregarding her astonished gaze.

  "If possible, don't tell them you've ever seen me!" Meng'er stood up and was about to leave. She couldn't believe that she had the fate to meet this young master in a foreign land!

  "Sure, but can we exchange contact information so I can find you? I'm guessing you won't be leaving this city for a long time, and as for me, I really like the atmosphere of this city! Next time I come here, it'll be great to have someone to hang out with!" Le Feng changed out of his formal attire from that day and was now wearing casual clothes, looking like a friendly neighbor, which made Meng Er feel slightly more at ease.

  "I don't have a cell phone, no way to contact me!" Then, left out of Le Feng's sight!

  Before long, Jing Tianyou told her that she should continue her studies and had already arranged for her to attend the University of Washington's Seattle campus to study journalism. Meng'er did not object and obediently followed the arrangement.

  In the first year, she struggled to learn the language, trying hard to blend in with the atmosphere, desperately absorbing knowledge to improve herself. And Jing Tianyou, every month would come to see her once, telling her about her brother's situation! As for Le Feng, he would occasionally appear around her, and gradually, she established a friendship with this Le Feng who was somewhat similar to He Lesheng. Sometimes, she would ask, what did Le Feng come here for? Some of her classmates thought Le Feng was her boyfriend because sometimes he would directly come to school to find her! But no matter how confident she was, she wouldn't think that Le Feng came for her! Maybe, he really just liked this city!

  In the second year, she joined the college's broadcasting and hosting group and would also host some evening parties, gradually gaining recognition from some of her classmates. Her programs were well-received by many listeners, and gradually, many people came to know that this gentle and elegant voice belonged to a little Eastern girl, listening to whose program was a kind of enjoyment, a spiritual purification!

  Jing Tianyou's visits became less frequent. According to Wang Ayi, it seemed that their young master was going to get engaged! Meng'er only found out later that on that night, after she changed her clothes and lost consciousness, it was Jing Tianyou who sent her here. And this Wang Ayi was also someone who had received kindness from Jing Tianyou, not her older brother Cang Haijun, so the young master she mentioned was also Jing Tianyou!

  Wang thought that Meng'er would be heartbroken, because she had seen the feelings between Meng'er and Young Master gradually warming up over the past two years. She had always assumed that Young Master was in love with Meng'er and that one day Meng'er would become her daughter-in-law. However, she hadn't expected that changes in high society could happen faster than a woman's change of heart.

  Meng'er just lightly responded with an "en" and then hugged the thick reference book she borrowed from the library back to her room. Meng'er in the room opened the book wide, but didn't read a single word!

  As night fell, the man who should have been in his hometown being a good fiancé appeared in this house, with a dusty and tired look!

  Meng'er was just like the time when Wang Ayi told her, "Young Master is here!" and she hastily ran downstairs to find that it was indeed Jing Tianyou standing there, standing at the turning point of the stairs without taking another step forward! However, this time Jing Tianyou didn't wait for Meng'er to come down, he took three steps in two strides to reach her side and hugged her tightly!

  "After a long time, he said his first sentence to her: 'You've lost weight again!'"

  "Okay, let's get Aunt Wang to prepare dinner!" Meng'er gently pushed him away and went to find Aunt Wang.

  Two people sat quietly eating, and finally, Jing Tianyou spoke up: "Don't you want to ask me why I'm here?"

  "Why?" Meng'er swallowed the rice in her mouth without lifting her head and stretched out her chopsticks to the green vegetables beside her, asking in coordination.

  Qingtian You saw Meng'er eating green vegetables again and put a piece of pork ribs into her bowl, saying: "Because I missed you..."
