Chapter 8, From then on, heaven and earth.

Three years ago, while traveling to Chengkan with the Ye brothers, Ye Shenxing curiously inquired about my origins. I replied that I came from a place called Xianghe Li, located in the suburbs of Bincheng. There, I also met a young man who gave me a branch from a Migu tree, as Migu possesses the ability to guide direction and the human heart

After a while

In an instant, I felt my entire elbow being forcefully pulled back by someone. I knew who it was, and instinctively I struggled a bit, but unexpectedly the man slightly shifted forward and yanked my arm with great force. I stumbled a few steps back, only to be met with a slap to the face, accompanied by a cold mockery: "Congratulations, your guilt has lessened, now get lost"

It has been a long time since it got dark and the road is slippery, hasn't it

That little brat actually looked at me with disdain for two seconds, as if to protest: Is there anyone in the world more handsome than my brother?

Wei Guangyin glanced at the old man, his expression revealing a sense of calm after lowering his guard. "What difference is there now in asking her to come inside, compared to the hope you once gave her in America? Since the beginning was flawed, only a swift resolution can untangle this mess." After a moment of silence, he added, "It is rare to see you speak on behalf of someone."

Once, Wei Guangyin believed himself to be a materialist, but now he has realized that in matters of emotion, he is also like an idealistic clown. Unconsciously, he has incorporated her into his own realm, and because this citizen named "Cheng Gaigai" was bullied by outsiders, he decided to mobilize three armies and station six troops at the city. Unexpectedly, in the end, it only frightened her

I felt as if I had lost my hearing. While waiting, we chatted and played the piano in the restaurant. After that, I went to the restroom, and when I came out, I saw Shen Xing leaving in a panic. I chased after him, but he had already vanished. Perhaps I could ask my friend about what exactly happened, oh, it's just...

Seeing this, Ye Shenxun's voice tightened even more, "Don't speak."

I ask myself how I can endure the harsh interrogation, yet find it difficult to face Ye Shenxun's disheartened gaze. Thus, as a reflex, I push him away and say, "I do not need you to worry about how I treat someone! As for Shenxing, you can rest assured, even if it means death, I will bring him back to you, safe and sound!"

If that is really the case, then it would be great

The rough fabric of Cheng's modified coat revealed traces of metallic debris. The man's eyes tightened, and his breath caught in his throat, as if a thousand mountains were pressing down on him, making it impossible for him to straighten his back, leaving him devoid of the courage to continue exploring further.

Of course ... ... there is. Long-lasting in my heart

... ...

Cheng Cheng! It really is you!

Indeed, the nature of a child. The world of adults is nothing like this stormy weather, which can change at a moment's notice

I can drive, a skill taught to me by Ye Shenxun two years ago. Although he often criticizes my intelligence, it is undeniable that I have a talent for many things, including driving

I locked eyes with him, and unexpectedly, my gaze was drawn to the floating blue object, causing my heart to tighten. Habitually stubborn, I held my head high, and then, as if making a decision, I turned around and strode forward, bowing to the crowd, "I apologize, the mistake was mine. I was entrusted to pick someone up at the airport, but I failed to return the second young master on time."

What brings you here

As the piece concluded, the girl closest to the piano suddenly jumped up and exclaimed, "Ah, a mosquito!"

You do not understand me because you have never wanted to understand the true me. In the past, I had no feelings, yet you insisted on seeing me as a romantic person. Now, I wish to become a romantic person, but you can only see my past heart that was devoid of feelings

While in the restroom, I overheard two girls discussing what seemed to be some turmoil outside. As soon as I entered the hall, I saw Ye Shenxing rise in panic, backing away and bumping into the corner of another table, as if a monster were approaching. Standing before him was none other than the young man who had been transformed into jade.

Ye Shenxing's ability to read the room does not resemble that of a child; he quickly saw through my hesitation and immediately put on a pained expression, saying, "Actually, it's nothing to eat and sleep alone; I have already gotten used to living a solitary life in the United States. You don't need to worry about me, go ahead and be busy."

The boy's gaze wavered for a few seconds, and with a haughty "hmph," he vowed to be as resolute in his revolutionary stance as Liu Hulan

The rain had unknowingly ceased, and the fresh scent from the outskirts filled the air. I took a deep breath and was the first to sit inside the car, attempting to find a tissue to dry my hair, only to unexpectedly discover that there were actually bottled water and biscuits in the back seat. It seems that Ye Shenxun often travels for business and keeps these as a backup.

The middle-aged man still maintains an upright posture, with hair neatly trimmed and a pair of historically standard thick eyebrows and large eyes, his features deep and imposing without anger. As for the two children, they resemble their mother more, with slender, upturned eyes, fair eyelids, and a natural charm. If they were daughters, they would possess myriad charms, particularly evident in the now-adult Ye Shenxun.

With your appearance and your beautiful piano playing, it is hard not to attract attention

Thus, he and I engaged in a tug-of-war at the foot of the mountain, ultimately concluding with Wei Guangyin prying my fingers apart one by one

He alluded to the events of that year, suggesting that he still owes an apology.

Upon hearing the words, the person in front suddenly halted their steps, and their body tensed up

The situation was urgent, leaving no room for me to be afraid. I secretly pinched my thigh and stepped forward to admit my mistake, "I’m sorry, Young Master Ye’s people have already arrived at the airport..." Before I could finish my sentence, Ye Shenxun suddenly reached out and pulled me aside, reappearing in the light, his gaze shifting slightly, "There is no room for you to speak here"

She offered the gauze, as if holding her own heart, "The restaurant you went to, I, I was there too. I saw you were hurt"

Buzz ... ... buzz. ... ... ... buzz ...

Strangely, as the surrounding scenery recedes faster, my premonition grows stronger, almost certain that Ye Shenxing is right here, akin to a person experiencing a final flash of light before death, devoid of any logical reasoning

After surveying the streets and alleys several times and confirming that no one was around, my voice began to tremble. In an instant, Ye Shenxun's face transformed in my mind into one with a greenish complexion and sharp fangs

Speaking of which, this child was injured in childhood, and his intelligence has remained at the level of eight or nine years old, yet he still understands the subtle relationships between men and women. One cannot help but admit that genetics are indeed very important. At the age of eight or nine, I was still running around the mountains with those bare-bottomed boys from Xianghe, among whom was Liu Dazhuang

Sheng Sha dragged me and drove to the airport to wait. As soon as he got in, he saw me, the instigator, and after holding back for a moment, he refrained from throwing me out of the car. After I clarified the whole story, where I was, and whom I had encountered, I had secretly peeked at him through the gap in the mirror, only to suddenly find that the man's complexion had turned even more ashen.

He swallowed hard and asked, "Are you sure?"

This matter cannot be blamed on the senior brother. Do you know that if the Ye family finds out that you took Ye Shenxing to meet Wei Guangyin, not to mention that you gave Young Master Ye a kidney, even if you were to pay with your life, Ye Xin would not necessarily let it go, for that is an upgraded version of Ye Shenxun

What are you doing? The Ye family's old residence said they haven't received anyone, nor have I seen you return anyone.

The conversation we once had still echoes in my ears, and I suddenly turned the car towards the highway toll booth

Fearing that Ye Shenxing would dig deeper, I interrupted, "I am going to the restroom. If a particularly handsome brother walks in later, don't hesitate, it is him."

This path of arrival is indeed too distant. So distant that he believes it separates heaven from earth from now on

He Bo squinted his eyes under the light, "In the eyes of this old servant, it is all Miss Cheng, there is no distinction in whom to speak for. What is important is, does the gentleman know his own heart? You initially left in a fit of temper, turned back, left again, and turned back once more, perhaps certain that someone would be foolishly waiting in place. Later, when you beckoned, that foolish person did not ask for the reason and burned themselves in fire. But one day, when the foolish moth can no longer fly, would you be willing to shatter your noble self to follow its humble shadow?" Later, when you beckoned, that foolish person did not ask for the reason and burned themselves in fire. But one day, when the foolish moth can no longer fly, would you be willing to shatter your noble self to follow its humble shadow?

Now, he has encountered her. Waking up in the morning, he sees the girl in white, quietly sleeping under the morning light beside him. He truly believed that life would become different from this point on. Yet, she seems to have come in the wrong direction

In an instant, Wei Guangyin recalled a similar scene during the senior year graduation vacation.

Having spoken, he strode away with great strides, leaving the two who held themselves in high regard behind.

Ye Shenxing has been living in the United States for many years. Due to special health reasons, it is usually Ye Shenxun who goes to pick him up when he returns to Bincheng. However, he and Zhou Yin had to go out of town temporarily, so the arrangement was made for Sheng Shan to pick him up. Unexpectedly, Sheng's parents went abroad on a business trip, and she, as the representative of the Sheng family, had to attend a bidding conference.

Brother Time

He Bo personally applied medicine to Wei Guangyin, adjusting his reading glasses repeatedly, speaking in a gentle and persuasive tone, "Seeing the rain getting heavier, how much can a young girl endure?"

Regardless of how much Wei Guangyin invests in this play with Cheng Gaigai, his original intention is for the Wei Group. Without this grand excuse, would he take a few steps towards her? If he did not have the determination to take ninety-nine steps, it would indeed make no difference whether it is Miss Cheng who enters the Wei family or the Miss Cheng outside the door. If he truly had the heart to take ninety-nine steps, he would not be so alarmed at the moment she has just taken a step back.

The person I like

How to describe the urgency of that moment? It was as if I had encountered a great tree in a swamp; I clung to it and would not let go, groping around on the ground for something resembling wood, and began to strike the large bell. In an instant, the courtyard was filled with the echoing sound of muffled tones.

Migu

That is because the person they like is nearby, and they want the other party to look at them a little more.

After delivering a harsh remark, I slipped into the driver's seat through the car door he had just opened, flooring the accelerator and speeding down the mountain.

"Reconciliation as if nothing had happened?" The tone of the person, who has always been indifferent, couldn't help but rise slightly. "Perhaps there is reconciliation in this world, but certainly not a return to the way things were. If your expectation is such, then never seeing her again in this lifetime is also a good choice for her." He understood that girl too well; she seemed carefree, yet in reality, she couldn't bear to disappoint everyone's hopes.

Ye Shenxing reacted swiftly, "Then I will follow you until elder brother returns to Bincheng!"

But no matter how I calculated, I never expected that when Ye Shenxing saw the person who had long occupied my heart, he would turn around and flee

In front of the fence gate, Cheng Suiwan hesitated as she held a bundle of medical gauze, wanting to approach but feeling afraid. She expected to see the surprised gaze of the person involved, but instead, all she saw was indifference, as if they had long been aware of her return to Bincheng.

I do not want to return to that home, it is not fun

The entire Ye family was already in an uproar. Ye Shunshan was throwing a tantrum at home. As soon as Ye Shenxun stepped into the main hall of the old residence, the head of his cane was thrown at him with precision and force. "Usually, you always make your own decisions, even keeping the address of Shenxing in America a secret from us. Since you have the ability to act so recklessly, now you must go to the ends of the earth and bring my grandson back to me, safe and sound!"

He successfully extricated himself, passed by me, and had only taken a few steps when I could no longer contain myself and questioned him loudly

Peiyang removed the receiver, swallowed hard, and after a long while finally said, "It is... Miss Cheng."

In the depths of my thoughts, it seems as if two words are struggling to emerge.

Just like at their first encounter, which girl in front of him did not possess the delicate charm of a little bird nestled among the verdant willows? Only she, with a fiery spirit, flung a lump of pork right onto his captivating face. Following that, Ye Shenxun truly seemed bewitched, involuntarily entering a state of bewilderment, his thoughts in such disarray that he began to question his very existence

When he arrived at the parking lot without saying a word, I finally reached out my hand and tentatively tugged at the sleeve of the person in front, only to have it firmly swatted away.

On that day, I recognized that the world was the second unluckiest, and no one dared to claim the first.

Seeing the expressions of his father and Aunt Yue, the young Wei Guangyin experienced for the first time what it meant to feel flustered. No matter how they tried to justify themselves, he simply could not remember. After unexpectedly falling into a daze, he had no idea what he had done, akin to the amnesia that follows heavy drinking, leaving no trace to follow.

On the highway, the pitch-black, rain-soaked night chills one to the bone. Perhaps it is this wave of cold that has seeped into the body, causing the person in the back seat, whose thoughts are as meticulous as mercury, to have a completely blank mind throughout the journey

Upon mentioning that name, my dazed gaze gradually warmed up, "Do they... have such a deep prejudice against time?"

A drop of water, two drops of water, three drops of water, cannot transform into a vast ocean... Yet she walked for one year, two years... Ten years, before finally reaching his side. Therefore, one cannot give everything; it is better to give nothing at all. In this way, perhaps it would be better for everyone.

To this end, Ye Shenxun, who was originally on a business trip, hurried back to Bincheng overnight, his expression grim

It is him

Ye Shenxing wouldn't have gone to Xianghe, would he

Hearing Wei Guangyin repeatedly lean towards Cheng Gaigai, Cheng Suiwan could not help but furrow her brows tightly, her tone filled with resentment, "You all want me to apologize, but what wrong have I committed? I merely fell in love with someone at the most appropriate age, and because I wanted to hold onto him too much, my methods were a bit extreme. Even if I were to apologize, the one who was hurt is Sheng Shan, what does it have to do with her? Could it be that the two years I have lived relying on a respirator are not enough to repay?" Even if I were to apologize, the one who was hurt is Sheng Shan, what does it have to do with her? Could it be that the two years I have lived relying on a respirator are not enough to repay?

The light was too bright, and instinctively, I wanted to raise my hand to shield myself, but I was met with a deafening blast of a horn, the sharp sound of concrete grinding, and amidst it all, the indistinct shouts of someone.

As I was pondering how to make the goosebumps subside in my disheveled state, amidst the gradually diminishing sound of rain, a sudden series of hurried footsteps emerged. I had no time to discern the direction from which the sound came, but from the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a figure rushing past, abruptly tackling me down, their heavy breathing cascading between my neck.

time

Have many girls called you like this in front of you

Fortunately, the land near the orphanage has been sold, yet no actual construction has begun. The dilapidated gate remains shrouded in the night. I cautiously stepped over the moss and obstacles beneath my feet, attempting to call out, "Shen Xing? Are you there?" I had already forgotten that the looming building before me was the perfect setting for a horror film, where malevolent spirits might roam. My mind was consumed by a single thought: Ye Shenxun was far more terrifying than any evil spirit.

Have you seen Los Angeles at four in the morning ...? ... Oh no, is it Riverside?

She heard from Liu Wei that two years ago, in a car accident, Ye Shenxun was in a critical condition, and it was Cheng Gaigai who took the initiative to step forward and donate a kidney to him. As a result, her health has significantly declined, making it impossible for her to engage in intense physical activities. She had even faced a life-threatening situation due to a minor bacterial infection. This is also why, on the Q University basketball court, she hesitated in response to his invitation.

During the trip to Sri Lanka two years ago, had it not been for him and Sheng Shan constantly advising me, Ye Shenxun and I would likely not have encountered that blunder.

Unfortunately, I have never been an obedient master, and my heart is solely focused on helping those behind me wash away their sins. After a pause, I continued, "Later, I accepted a friend's invitation and brought him along, waiting in the restaurant..."

From a young age, he possessed the temperament and features of a cartoon character, enjoying quietness and independent thinking, resembling a little adult, more mature than Ye Shenxun, who was then bouncing around in school. Apart from Ye Shenxun, the only ones he admired were Transformers and Wei Guangyin. He could always restore the most complex imitations within a minute and transform Transformer models into different car shapes. Everything changed dramatically from the accident on the balcony.

As I reached the end, just in front of the traffic light, I was not paying attention and suddenly slammed on the brakes, my head hitting the steering wheel, and a moment of inspiration struck

Then... you get in the car first, and I will answer you.

They must have said some unpleasant things to you

In an instant, the wind ceased, the rain gradually fell, and everything around was blurred

Behind the streetlight, there is a small garden, where it seems that the ginger flowers from the entire city have bloomed. The canopy of greenery overhead forms a vast expanse, making it an excellent place to cool off in the summer. However, that gate has long been left untouched, yet on this night, it stands wide open.

You and she share only a few childhood memories. Yet for that person, she is willing to risk her life

After several seconds, Ye Shenxun finally raised his head in astonishment, his gaze barely finding the girl behind the crowd, who was holding a large pile of colorful items in her arms. Upon closer inspection, it was all snacks. Cheng Gaigai smiled at him in a pleasing manner, but he stared at her intently, his lips moving for a long time before he managed to suppress the countless words in his heart and responded with a barely audible reply.

He pouted sulkily

Chengcheng, I heard that your elder brother has started to like Jie Jie again, how pitiful you are. Why not, after I recover from my illness, you marry me?

In the twilight, I turned my head and gazed at the silent figure of the young man, my vocal cords trembling: "Time, you can explain... as long as you say no, I will believe you"

Orange!

After a deep and dark slumber, there is no trace of Wei Guangyin. The red strap still lies on my little finger, yet that end is already all alone.

For a moment, all that could be heard were the entangled words exchanged between him and me

Without pausing, Ye Shenxing hurried to the scene, where he was surrounded by several traffic police, looking dirty all over

It is called a bell, yet it must be struck by human hands, and its power is not insignificant

After picking up the phone, I found that Sheng Shan had made many calls but was unable to wake me up. I called back, and feeling in a great mood, I just kept saying OK to whatever she was saying on the other end.

I am not familiar with Bincheng, I only remember what you mentioned, such as the suburbs and Xianghe Li

That night, Cheng Suiwan collapsed in front of the Wei family door, holding the water-soaked gauze and crying, her crimson lips bitten to a pale blue, refusing to leave.

He suddenly recalled the time when they lived together in the apartment, occasionally inviting Peiyang to join him in playing Dou Di Zhu. However, Peiyang firmly believed that it was a game purely based on luck, and as a result, he lost more than half a month's salary. With the mindset of treating it as paying tuition, Assistant Pei privately sought advice from a tutorial girl, who imparted to him a key insight.

After a long while, it was unclear whether Ye Shunshan felt pity for his former disciple or could not bear to see Ye Shen's restrained demeanor. He finally sat down slowly in the chair, his expression slightly clearing. "At this point, it is not the time to investigate who is responsible. I want to see Shen Xing safe and sound; everything else can be discussed later"

A high-speed rear-end collision occurred when a heavily loaded truck driver, after driving under the influence, mistakenly entered the emergency lane, crushing a silver Land Rover into debris. The tremendous noise startled the surrounding residents, and the scattered lights began to flicker on in the late hours of the night. The lonely trees and grass still bore traces of rainwater, which, when illuminated by the lights, appeared surreal.

Upon hearing that Wei Guangyin was injured, I felt an overwhelming sense of regret. The hesitation I experienced on my way here vanished into thin air, and I immediately resolved to visit him tomorrow to apologize. If he refuses to see me, I will resort to crying, making a scene, and even threatening to hang myself. When I hang myself, I will use the red rope from his enchanted valley as a noose, ensuring that he will never forget it for the rest of his life

The deformed vehicle was unrecognizable in its original form. Upon investigation, it was found that the owner was the eldest son of the Ye family. The transportation administration sent someone specifically, and the head of the secretary, resembling a secretary, broke through the crowd of onlookers and traffic police to come forward and shake hands. He seemed oblivious, slightly staggering as he pushed Ye Shenxing towards Peiyang, and then hurried towards the pile of scrap metal.

All he can do is to stagger backward, saying, "I, I really cannot remember..."

Ye Shenxing pondered for a while, and with a cautious expression, asked me, "So, did Chengcheng call me like this in front of my elder brother as well?"

The girl paused in her breathing, shrank her hand, and looked down at the ground, truly a sight that evokes sympathy. "Liu Wei has advised me in the same way; it is not that I do not want to see her, but that I do not dare to. Until I figure out how to apologize in a way that can restore our relationship to its original state, I lack the courage to meet her."

Migu

Do you know yourself well? I do not, but there are benefits to it. Those who do not understand themselves will not feel guilty, no matter what they do

Reason tells me not to agree to these muddled demands. However, in the cold wind and rain of the countryside night, having gone days without food, I found it hard to resist any longer. With the last of my strength, I shouted, "If I agree, can I go home?!" He did not hesitate, "Yes!"

During this time, my heel caught on the tattered garment that covered it, and when the rainwater washed over the object, it emitted a silvery gleam, enlightening me: is this not the bell that the dean used to urge us to attend class?

To wash away the shame, on a day when the clouds were light and the wind gentle, I invited those two brothers to the archery range. With a formidable demeanor, I donned my gear and, under the watchful gaze of Ye Shenxun, released an arrow that, as expected, struck the bullseye. Facing the vast blue sky of the West, I straightened my posture and walked over, defiantly tossing the bow and arrow in front of him, my nostrils flaring: "Do you see clearly now? What do I lack compared to you? I am not just a bookish fool!"

Ye Shenxing... has returned?

What appears to be casual conversation is, in fact, a wake-up call

No, you should not go. I am really fine

Because it was he who pushed Shen Xing off the balcony back then

Hmm

Feeling lost, he noticed the white roses that should have been placed at the door, now standing vibrantly at the head of the bed. Beneath the white vase was his elegant handwriting: Urgent matter, return to the company, contact me upon waking.

Although I do not really wish to die young

At that time, my voice was barely a whisper, trembling as I had been contemplating for a long time before I dared to reveal the good deed I had done, "Shen Xing... is gone."

The bidding is indeed the first large-scale environmental protection project in Bincheng, and Shen Zhou had also worked hard for it, only to ultimately give up. It is understandable, as Shen Zhou's partner, Zhou Yin, happens to be He Yuan's rival in love. This lucrative opportunity will certainly not fall into Shen Zhou's hands, while the Sheng family is merely going through the motions.

The yard was cluttered with piles of wood debris, and I nearly tripped, bumping into something, twisting my ankle, only to hear that thing buzzing incessantly

This is also why, before the age of seven or eight, Sheng Shan was wholeheartedly pursuing the boy named Wei Guangyin. However, after the incident, the only feeling she had for him was fear

After a long while, the wound near his wrist had been bandaged. Wei Guangyin rose and approached the window, gazing at the girl outside who was nearly fainting in the rain, his brow furrowed. The images floating in his mind were all of her tearful expression from just moments ago.

Actually, have you ever truly understood everyone, time?

To deal with a actuary like your boss, if following the normal procedure, within a minute, he will know everything in your hand clearly, and you can only play psychological warfare! For example, if you keep the "Wang Zha" card until the end, maybe you won't even be able to fart, you must play it at the beginning. If he plays a "5", you should bomb it, bomb him until he is confused and starts to doubt his life, then you will have a chance to win.

Wei Guangyin never expected that he could withstand all the malice in the world, but he was defenseless against a barely approaching gaze from Cheng Gaigai. When the car abruptly stopped at the entrance of Wei's mansion, the wind outside roared, and the newly planted tree trunks in the courtyard swayed dangerously, just like his unsettled mind at this moment.

At that time, Ye Shenxun, who was four or five years older, glared with bloodshot eyes, grabbed his clothes and angrily asked, "Tell me! Did you pull him or push him?!"

After a while, the person in front of the window seemed to have made a decision and relaxed their lips.

A certain streetlight in front of the main gate is broken. A few days ago, Mr. He had instructed someone to replace it, but he said it was unnecessary. On that day, Wei Yan was still alive; he loved to sit under this streetlight waiting for his father to come home. With the person gone, the light shines bright but holds no meaning.

In that peaceful year, when movies were shown in the courtyard, my grandfather said to the little boy, one day you will meet a person as splendid as a rainbow, and she will make your life different

The children of the four prominent families in Bincheng practically grew up together, forming close bonds with each other. However, it was only Wei Guangyin who was universally liked by everyone.

On the way to the airport, I sent a text message to Wei Guangyin, saying that I had left to pick up a friend. I thought he would be extremely busy, but the screen lit up faster than I expected, with a concise reply: "Dinner tonight." I felt as if I were in a dream, smiling foolishly at my phone, while the driver rolled his eyes, saying, "We've arrived."

Even Peiyang was slapped silly. Only when the old man spoke did he step forward and rush around. As he passed by me, he originally wanted to say a comforting word, but I, feeling ashamed, turned my head and ran away with the wind.

Ye Shenxing

Suddenly, the disheveled Ye Shenxing took a moment to glance at me with concern, wanting to stop, yet spoke again

I am the one who can lose Shen Xing

At that time, Ye Shenxing was quite interested and tugged at my arm, inviting me: "That orange can come to find me in the future! There is a research project in the United States that can turn human ashes into capsules, which will grow into a tree. When you die in the future, you can plant the ashes, and it will become a tree like the one in the maze, guiding us in the right direction!"

He repeatedly told He Bo that provoking Cheng Gai Gai was merely a ruse to trace the roots and identify the traitor within the group. This led him to inquire about her trip to Shanghai, and he even aligned with the intentions of Sheng Shan and others to have photos taken, all to observe the reactions of the senior executives once the news broke. However, as this play unfolded, it gradually deviated from the intended course

Suddenly, the anger that had caused me to break out in a cold sweat unintentionally transformed into a sigh, drifting lightly like snowflakes across my cheek

With a loud bang, Ye Shenxun did not dodge, and a small bruise immediately appeared on his temple as he stood with his head lowered

At this moment, Ye Shenxing, unaware of my mental state, continued to explain the reasons intermittently, while also entangled in the perplexing choice of whether or not to return with me, "What if we get caught by the police if we go back? But if we don't go back, I'm really very hungry..."

However, the person in the darkness pushed aside the gauze, speaking in a cold and indifferent tone, "I thought the first person you would want to see upon your return would be Gai Gai."

Is that so? The person waiting foolishly in place. In the past, Wei Guangyin was confident about Cheng Gaigai. Now, he is uncertain.

"Miss Cheng," he called, his tone laced with frost, "No matter how deeply you wish to express your feelings for someone, do not involve innocent bystanders in your charade; we have no interest in it"

Later, he went to the United States, reminding himself that this was a path one must take in the prime of youth, a fleeting encounter that would eventually fade. However, when he returned to the coastal city, what should have been a brief moment came rushing back with astonishing force, and he realized that she was a calamity destined to befall him. In calamity, there is no escape

What can you do by going there again, push someone off the cliff once more

Even if it is a lie, I still believe it. In the end, silence returns to silence

The transportation department called, and it was Peiyang who answered. After listening for just a few sentences, his expression changed dramatically, and the thread that had been taut in his mind snapped suddenly.

In the courtyard, the conversation between Sheng Shan and me fell into silence. Just then, Ye Shenxun came out and saw the two of us standing in the yard. He had no intention of speaking, but I inexplicably followed him, not even considering whether he would slap me again.

As the conversation progresses, it fails to form a complete sentence

Last time, she insisted on keeping me at the Ye Hospital despite Ye Shenxun's obstruction, and later, with Zhou Yin's protection, I was not retaliated against. Now, she has entrusted Ye Shenxun's precious younger brother to me, and I said... I lost him

As Ye Shenxun passed by, that person remained unfazed, treating me as if I were invisible, methodically arranging for relevant individuals to engage with the hospital media and the police department. The room was filled to capacity, yet there was only one Sheng Shan, who took the opportunity to chase me outside when no one was paying attention, blocking my way in the courtyard.

In the past, Ye Shenxun taught me how to drive, but I had never been on the highway. On a dark, windy night with rain, I actually felt a bit apprehensive. However, thinking about that child who might have gone to the outskirts, isolated and helpless, and in a state of fear, I found it hard to release my foot from the brake.

It is understandable that on the way here, I have already been scolded by Sheng Shan several times. It is not difficult to imagine the tumultuous waves rolling in Ye Shenxun's heart

Dear Sir, I am filled with trepidation.

In an instant, I regretted it. I thought to myself that I should have brought Liu Dazhuang before coming here. Even if he couldn't offer any strategies, his presence would have been a source of courage

Do not ... ... !

What?

At that moment, I felt somewhat fortunate.

However, he is afraid of being caught by the police... because in the restaurant, he accidentally injured Wei Guangyin with a dining knife, and now he is fleeing out of fear of punishment... Therefore, he does not even dare to seek out Ye Shenxun, and can only hide by himself, taking it one day at a time

In an instant, I hurriedly found my voice, which seemed to be pulled out like a thread, soft and dense. "So, I really never understood you."

I saw a shadow flash at the door. Without even saying hello to Wei Guangyin, I chased him out. But when I pushed the door open, the city, shrouded in darkness, no longer had the boy in the gray baseball shirt in sight.

However, he never considered that Cheng Gaigai would carry this theory through to the end. Tonight, he merely slapped her, yet she detonated her own life, causing everyone to be thrown into a state of panic.

The screen returns to the hotel, and a great task is about to befall me. I quickly pack up and rush to the airport.

It has been two years since we last met. This child has grown taller. Even though I am two years older than him, he still insists on calling me "Chengcheng". His mentality seems to have remained at the age of eight or nine.

That person trapped me with the strength I had once anticipated, whispering sweet nothings in my ear. But tonight, this sudden intimacy did not cloud my judgment, instead it left me unsure of what to do. I could only raise my head slightly and force a bitter smile, which caught Wei Guangyin's attention and made him notice my slightly flushed face, his gaze suddenly intense.

I realized that I was holding onto his strength too aggressively. Wei Guangyin originally wanted to give up, but found the glint of determination in my eyes, and suddenly his mind was no longer clear. "Let go, please," he said with an irresistible tone, but I held on even tighter, almost pleading.

As she ran wildly down the street, his heartbeat echoed louder than the winds of the Huangpu River. When she said, "I resent you, I hate you, I dislike you," he found himself feeling a deep sorrow in response. In the cinema, when she asked, "What if the person I love the most dies first?" he turned his head to gaze at her, wanting to say: I will wait for you at the edge of that world while living. Yet, unaccustomed to such naked confessions, he replaced the word "you" with "she." He turned his head to gaze at her, wanting to say: I will wait for you at the edge of that world while living. Yet, unaccustomed to such naked confessions, he replaced the word "you" with "she."

Just by glancing at the last digits of the license plate, I recognized who it was. I quickly stepped on the brakes and hesitated for a long time before finally pushing the door open, only to unexpectedly collide into a gentle embrace.

On the day we met again, Wei Guangyin had once sternly warned me. I thought he simply hoped I would retreat in the face of difficulty. It turns out that the origins of it all had been cruelly inscribed many years ago.

That arrow did not fly in a straight line, it hit the target next to the bullseye... So what? At least I can draw the bow

Since then, to avoid the storm, the Wei family found an obscure place called Xianghe Li to foster the Wei family young master, which led to a fateful encounter with the young girl, Gai Gai. Initially, she approached him because he was intelligent enough to understand all the words and phrases. Later, she lingered by his side because of his naturally bright eyes, as clear as the moonlight.

Of course, I must admit my cowardice. In fact, Ye Shenxun's long-abandoned courtyard is not terrifying at all. Especially when echoes reverberate, I involuntarily get goosebumps all over my body

Seeing Ye Shenxing stubbornly refusing to leave, I had no choice but to make something up, "You are a minor, there are protection laws, don't be afraid." It felt like I was acting in a public service short film, just short of having the words "Five Virtues, Four Beauties, Three Youths" written on my forehead. But heavens, this kid actually understands the law better than I do. He said, "According to the age on my ID card, I can already serve a sentence," which made this fairy roll her eyes and retort, "According to marriage law, I should be getting married!"

The entire world is engulfed in anxiety over Ye Shenxing's disappearance, yet no one notices that the skin at his cuff is gradually seeping blood. In the restaurant, in a state of panic, Ye Shenxing had raised a dinner knife in a defensive posture. Wei Guangyin intended to offer comfort, but was ruthlessly attacked by the sharp blade in Ye Shenxing's hand. Cheng Suiwan had been following him for many days; had it not been for his injury, she might not have found an excuse to meet him.

As for my younger brother Ye Shenxun, I have always been at a loss for words to describe him. If I had to choose three words, they would probably be: divine assistance

If the person saying this were Liu Dazhuang, I would definitely respond: "Alright, goodbye." However, the subject is a child who has faced misfortune since a young age, and a beautiful child at that. Well, I cannot bear to do so, so I can only seek his opinion when Wei Guangyin calls, saying that I want to bring an extra friend to dinner.

Ye Shenxing could not help but scrutinize the other person for a moment, and only then did he rise, sitting down across from me with a face full of confusion. "Chengcheng, what is so terrifying about mosquitoes? Why are so many girls either afraid of mosquitoes or cockroaches?"

The young Ye Shenxing once chased after Wei Guangyin, calling out to him like this.

The boy stared at me, equally disheveled, with his eyes glistening like a stubborn yet intelligent fawn

From the beginning of the record, Wei Guangyin often experienced hallucinations, and no form of psychological therapy proved effective. Those hallucinations were occasionally scenes reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland, but mostly they resembled the Abyss, evoking terror and suffocation

Thinking of Wei Guangyin, I suddenly remember that the red string of the Migu he belongs to is still in my hand. Although there are more reasons to meet, I do not mind putting on a brave face for him once more, but what can we really say when we meet? ... The earliest past, in which I did not participate, seems to leave no room for comment ...

I am sorry, but I am not aware of the incident involving Shen Xing

I am grateful that I never agreed to marry Ye Shenxing. If I had, there might have been another heartbroken person in this world.

Reluctantly, I crawled to the passenger seat, intending to speak to him in a friendly manner. Before I could say anything, a strong light suddenly shot out from behind, blurring my entire field of vision

Seeing me silent, there were also signs of swelling around my eyes. The young man immediately prepared to step up the mountain to demand an explanation from me

While he still had his wits about him, the young man took steps to leave. Cheng Suiwan, however, thought he could not bear to see her and, with a tone tinged with bitterness, shouted: "What does it matter to you that you care for her? What she left you with is merely childhood memories. But for Ye Shenxun, she would risk her life!"

Thinking of this, I felt much better. I casually took a bag of Oreos from behind and cheerfully waved to Ye Shenxing, saying, "Aren't you coming up? Something happened. Eat up."

Seeing this, Ye Shenxun became even more furious. Suddenly, he turned his hand and grasped my shoulder, pushing me towards the car door. In an instant, I heard a crisp sound as my back hit the metal: "What, do you think that if you don't speak, the matter will just pass? Or did that slap just now leave you dazed? Did it hurt your feelings?"

I do not wish for you to be a specimen-like youth in white, nor am I afraid of the calamities you may bring upon me. What I fear is that you stand against the entire world.

My apartment is small, and it's not a big deal to sleep on the sofa for one night, but I have a date with Wei Guangyin tonight, and bringing such a big light bulb...

Everything around seemed to be frozen in time, transformed into a backdrop, as if to present someone with a farewell imbued with a profound sense of ritual. Until a faint inquiry came from a distance, breaking the barrier.

The traffic in Bincheng around six or seven in the evening is even more frustrating than that in the capital. Ye Shenxing and I arrived first; he is fond of the piano in the main hall and is eager to play it, attracting the attention of many young women.

In principle, this logic is sound, but Wei Guangyin always feels that it is fallacious reasoning when he hears it.

Perhaps it is because of these very hands that, at the moment I was abandoned by everyone, gently caressed my face with immeasurable affection. Wherever they touched, the world that had once left me barren was revived. Yet today, with the same pair of hands, he set a fire that utterly destroyed the small space I had preserved for him

Shut up

Then you are responsible for picking up Shen Xing

Hurry up

The words that the youth had suppressed for a long time burst forth on this cold night. My tears finally gushed out, and I could only lean against the winding wall and sob, my fingernails digging desperately into a corner of the wall, refusing to let go even as they tore. It seemed that without this grip, I could not support my body, which was gradually sliding down. In my line of sight, the person was gradually moving further away, until even the shadow of the car's tail was no longer visible. He came with a certain arrogance, yet left in a cold manner, like the wind and rain that strike in the late hours of the night.

I heard that the person picking me up was myself. Ye Shenxun was a thousand times uneasy and had someone from the old residence come over. As soon as I walked into the hall and recognized the leader in black, I was suddenly grabbed from behind, my mouth covered, and pulled aside. Looking up, I saw a face that resembled Ye Shenxun's, who made a gesture for silence at me

At this moment, it seems as if the sky has fallen for Sheng Shan

Wuwu, you have found me

Have you ever said something as simple as this to anyone?

I know that this time, I will probably truly die at his hands

Fearing that I might agree to that guy and then back out, I adopted a fishing policy and successfully lured him to the highway entrance. However, to my surprise, he had a strong sense of obligation and insisted that I must agree before he would leave

The snake owner who lost his livelihood that day, Sheng Shan who publicly shed his clothes, Xiao He who was forced to drop out of school, and Ye Shenxing who is forever stuck at the age of eight... I am sorry, I was wrong, please forgive me. Sometimes, I cannot control myself and accidentally hurt you. I want to make an effort to change, please give me some time

Did he still lay hands on you

Alright

The hatred, resentment, and dislike that those people have for you are entirely different from mine. Perhaps one day, various fatal encounters will suddenly unfold, just like the recent framing incident. At that time, how am I to face this empty life without you

That gaze shot over like a knife, each word and sentence striking at my heart, successfully turning my face pale, yet I knew I had made a grave mistake, remaining silent and not defending myself from beginning to end

Perhaps before this, I could still deceive myself into thinking that Wei Guangyin initially intended to reach out to Ye Shenxing. However, today in the restaurant, Ye Shenxing's various states clearly indicated that he is afraid. Only the person involved can vividly recall the nightmarish moments. Even after many years have passed, and despite being naive to the ways of the world, one can still recognize the instigator at a glance

Before I could approach, Ye Shenxing suddenly screamed in shock and ran outside. The person who had always been calm and composed instantly turned into a statue, standing motionless in the center of the crowd.

This life-threatening question, fortunately, he did not dare to ask in front of Wei Guangyin. After all, I would not have the courage to tell him that his proud elder brother is afraid of mice and had once panicked in front of me

The long-accumulated dust, after being washed away countless times by rain, has turned into mud, making it difficult to move even a step if one is not careful. I leaned against the wall as I entered, relying on childhood memories to navigate, "Ye Shenxing, come out quickly! It's me, Chengcheng!" Unfortunately, the sound of the rain has drowned out all voices.

After the balcony incident, Ye Shenxing fell into a coma for a time. The Wei family was eager to clear their suspicions, stating, "Guangyin and Shenxing have always had a good relationship and would never have a dispute. Perhaps the child accidentally fell from the balcony, and Guangyin tried to reach out to help?"

It turns out that there is not much difference between the wealthy and the poor; both experience feasting and fasting.

Of course, I did not hear Ye Shenxing weakly ask, "Brother, the target for Chengcheng is off, right...?"

You should not return to that home alone and go back to your brother's apartment; I am also worried, as there is not a single person there who can take care of you. I broke apart the fingers of the person in front of me one by one, attempting to warn him with a serious expression not to be willful

Open the door

Hmm, it's too far

As Wei Guangyin turned around, he seemed to want to reach out and pull me closer, but I instinctively took a step back. Thus, his outstretched hand remained suspended in mid-air

At a critical moment, Ye Shenxun's veins were already bulging, and his voice could not help but rise several times, "Can't you hear me telling you to be quiet?"

That was also the second time I saw Ye Shenxun's father, Ye Xin

red string

First, I was slapped by Ye Shen, then I questioned Wei Guangyin about being heartbroken, followed by crying like a fool, then I was drenched in a heavy rain, and finally, I had to drive while soaking wet to search for the precious star of the Ye family.

His younger brother has been living in the United States since that accident and is not familiar with this place. In the past, whenever people came and went, they were always picked up and dropped off by car, and he had never even remembered the names of the places, making it impossible for him to return home on his own. Now, I hear that he even lost his mobile phone at the restaurant; what kind of panic must he have felt at that moment

Come out

Pushing aside the boy whose eyes were bloodshot and face covered in mud, I slapped his forehead twice and said, "Are you stupid? If someone is bullying you, the first thing you should do is call your brother! Why are you running away?" Ye Shenxing pouted, but accidentally inhaled a mouthful of wind and mud, coughing a few times, "I originally wanted to use a public phone to call my brother, but, but..."

At exactly 1:00, I finally saw the familiar intersection, but the parking lot from before had long been closed. Reluctantly, I could only park the car on the emergency lane and stepped out with a flashlight while holding an umbrella.

Indeed, if seriousness can intimidate him, then is he still Ye Shenxun's biological brother

In the next moment, the youthful and innocent-looking Young Master Ye Long smashed a large hole in the hospital glass. The quiet world of Wei Guangyin was thus shattered.

It was only after hanging up the phone that I realized what I had agreed to

Sheng Shangan had just finished and was about to call me, but I took the initiative to call first, hearing her speak in a barrage of words on speakerphone.

Upon closer inspection, there are traces of water droplets on the flower, and their positions are different, indicating that Wei Guangyin must have deliberately arranged them before leaving. I held that one vibrant flower, my heart filled to the brim with immense joy.

It must be acknowledged that Cheng Gaigai's seemingly chaotic theory is quite well-received in front of Ye Shenxun

Ye Shenxun had just appeared, and he rushed over, seemingly embracing the only pillar, crying out loud. Seeing that he was physically unharmed, yet unable to speak through his tears, he could only point shakily towards the accident scene. Ye Shenxun's unease rapidly intensified, his brows furrowing into countless knots.

Ye Shenxun had just returned home and changed his clothes. As he stepped out of the bedroom, he caught sight of Peiyang's expression, which seemed to indicate that the end of the world was near. A chill ran through his heart, and he quickly approached, asking, "Shenxing?"

My sister was also an athletic champion! She was a key player on the school basketball team

In the night, the young man turned his head, exuding an air of coldness and severity

The Ye family's old residence is located halfway up the mountain. I rushed down to the foot of the mountain in one breath, only to be abruptly stopped by a black sedan.

As the hall echoed with that resounding sound, it stirred the surrounding breaths into waves. Even Ye Shunshan did not anticipate this, solemnly pressing his lips together, while only Ye Xin blinked, seemingly oblivious to it.

She is willing to risk her life

The land in Xianghe has long been sold, along with the grove of misty valleys, which has been torn apart into fragments. Surrounding it are the bare shadows of the mountains. I turned the music up to the maximum, attempting to drown out the howling and eerie sound of the wind, and forced myself to drive for a while, but fortunately, I gradually got the hang of it

Sheng Shan took a slight step back, as if recalling the past, with a lingering uncertainty in her eyes, and after a long pause, she finally spoke

Awaiting the familiar titles to be spoken, I have yet to see the true visage of the visitor, yet my heart is already at peace

In this moment, I could only see a large palm coming through the air, and my cheek began to sting painfully. Yet that palm seemed to possess a certain power, capable of striking at the heart. Otherwise, why is it that after receiving this deserved slap, I feel a tightness in my breath

Speaking of genetic issues, Ye Shenxun once compared me to others, saying that aside from studying, the things I know are probably not as many as Ye Shenxing's.

Caution, star!

Because of the belief in an eye for an eye, she took the land from the snake factory owner, cutting off the other party's livelihood. Unable to portray the role of a clean and innocent youth well, she, like today, retreated.

Recalling the intensity with which Ye Shenxun mentioned Wei Guangyin, I suddenly tugged at his sleeve, "I am fine, you need not go."

He replied in a low voice, met with a rustling sound of grass, and then suddenly revealed a vividly colorful face

It is already past midnight, and as time goes on, the concrete buildings rising from the ground become visible. Although there are no signs of human presence, the increasingly familiar stretch of road indicates that we are nearing our destination

If he wishes, he has countless ways to tease her, just as he does with every girl who approaches him with hidden intentions. However, he is capable of being malicious towards the entire world, yet when facing her, he only wants to speak words of love that are as obvious as those in a movie theater, wanting to last a lifetime
