Chapter 240 One Year Later

Lei Chenyi dragged his tired body back to the residence as usual, the long-lost meal smelled like it had been a long time since he opened the door to smell the smell of the meal.The delicacies of mountains and seas seem to have numb the sense of taste.In memory, there are only some vague and uncapturable things left.

There was a moment of hesitation on the sculpted handsome face, and when he heard the voice that was not thought in his brain, Lei Chenyi's face had already returned to calm.

"Chen Yi, you're back."

Xia Ruoyu immediately stood up when she heard the sound, and went to the entrance. When she saw Lei Chenyi, she smiled brightly.

"Fortunately, I can make it in time. Come here and make a wish."

Xia Ruoyu took Lei Chenyi with one hand, and walked to the restaurant table with cakes, but she didn't see Lei Chenyi's frown.

Withdrawing his hand without a trace, standing in front of the dining table, his usual indifferent voice...

"Why are you here?"

There was no anger or accusation in the voice, but the listener felt uncomfortable.Xia Ruoyu's face froze slightly, and she stood in place, looking at the table of dishes and Lei Chenyi's favorite cake, holding the cake box in her hand, and quietly clenched the hand that was pushed away.

"Today is your birthday. I came here early to buy groceries. Auntie was here just at the hour, so I didn't call you. I was going to give you a surprise. In the past few years abroad, I will buy a cake every year for your birthday in silence. To accompany you on your birthday, this year, I can finally...Help you celebrate your birthday...That's why I...If you don't like it, I will..."

As Xia Ruoyu was talking, she was so choked up that she couldn't continue, a tear rolled out of her eye socket and fell on the back of her hand.

His eyes deepened a little, Lei Chenyi silently interrupted Xia Ruoyu's self-pity by pulling a chair...

After Xia Ruoyu saw Lei Chenyi sitting down, she quickly wiped away her tears, and her tearful smile made me feel sad and pitiful.Joyfully carrying the dishes to the kitchen, he said as he walked, "I'm going to heat the dishes."

"No, I just ate."

"Then, have some cake, I ordered it specially."

"Ah."

In the end, I just took a bite and put it down.Many of the things I once loved have gradually changed.Things that I didn't care about before have quietly filled my heart.

"Chen Yi, your birthday present. Your shirts are worn out, I think you are too busy to make new ones. So, I bought you a few, see if you like them."

Xia Ruoyu looked at Lei Chenyi who took only one mouthful and didn't eat any more, his eyes were slightly stained with discomfort.Is it still not possible?It's been so long, is it still not possible?The bitterness in his heart was suppressed, he forced a smile and took over the shirt he bought according to Lei Chenyi's previous preferences.

"Thank you."

He reached out to take it, and put it aside casually.Lei Chenyi also stood up, and said calmly: "It's very late, I'll take you back."

"I……"

Can I stay?

Seeing Lei Chenyi's expression, he silently swallowed the latter words.

"I'll take a taxi back by myself, it's very convenient."

The smile was hard to bear.Xia Ruoyu picked up the bag on one side in slow motion, and walked towards the door at a slow speed, while Lei Chenyi just watched Xia Ruoyu's movements, and when Xia Ruoyu opened the door, he said lightly: "Ruoyu..."

"Ok?"

Xia Ruoyu immediately turned her head and looked at Lei Chenyi, there was something bright and bright in her eyes, a ray of hope.

"be careful."

The flickering light went out in an instant.The expression on Xia Ruoyu's face couldn't hold back for a long time, she could only turn her head quickly, her throat was uncomfortable from being blocked.

"Ah."

Leaving quickly, when the door slammed shut.Xia Ruoyu took a deep breath, is it really impossible?

**************************************

It was already eleven o'clock, and it was not easy to get a car at this time.Xia Ruoyu stood at the intersection, waiting for a taxi.After waiting for about 10 minutes, I waited for a taxi.She reached out her hand to stop her, and as soon as she got in, she saw a car driving out of the community. She was very familiar with that car.

Chen Yi...

It's so late, he just went back, and now he's going out again, where is he going?

After thinking about it, the car was slowly leaving, Xia Ruoyu immediately said to the driver in front: "Master, please follow the car in front."

The car following Lei Chenyi has been parked in a neighborhood that is not unfamiliar, and he has not been here for a year.She thought that he had let go...

Watching Lei Chenyi's car drive in, Xia Ruoyu got out of the car and followed in.Watching Lei Chenyi get off the car and go upstairs, Xia Ruoyu stood downstairs, watching the lights in that building turn on...

A little bit of light was once again swallowed by the endless darkness.

The relationship between children and children has always been the second priority. A year ago, he never stepped here again.Open the door, the inside is clean and spotless, walk through a place, and turn on the light.Looking at the decorations inside that still haven't changed, I don't know why I want to come here all of a sudden...

Ruoyu's words made Lei Chenyi a little astonished.After Xia Ruoyu left, she looked at herself in the mirror.Looking at the shirt, it was indeed an old one for him.It seems to have become a habit. The closet is actually full of shirts. Every day when I reach for a new shirt, I reach for the few that are put together alone. The most common one is the one I wear.

The neckline is actually a little white, even the cuffs.In fact, it's not that I haven't noticed it, it just seems... I didn't mind it that much...

Occasionally, when socializing, I will drink some.But it will not be too much, handle things smoothly, and have a secretary to help hold the wine.And because of his status, there are very few people who would drink him without knowing his identity.And smoke...

Leaning against the door of the bedroom, looking at the unchanged big bed.

Amidst the smog, one can vaguely see a peaceful sleeping face, sleeping in the smog is just sweet.That beautiful little face, the shadow cast by the long eyelashes, that nose, that small mouth, that exquisite figure covered under the quilt.

Don't think about it, it doesn't mean you have forgotten...

**********************************

I stood until my feet in high-heeled shoes were so painful that I couldn't support them. I lowered my head and looked at the ticking hands on the watch on my wrist. Before I knew it, it was already two o'clock in the morning.Heart, surrounded by endless darkness, just like the moonlight that was suddenly swallowed by black clouds.I don't know when I will see the sun, or never see the sun...

"Master, go to xx..."

Leaning on the back seat of the car, when the master asked where she was going, Xia Ruoyu didn't give her address, but spit out a place that made her eyes widen in shock.When the car was driving forward, Xia Ruoyu wanted to change her words, but swallowed them silently.

In the reconstruction of City S, this area was the first to be reconstructed. In a few years, this area has already undergone earth-shaking changes.

Get out of the car and look at the completely unfamiliar building in front of you.This is something she doesn't want to touch...

That night, Xia Ruoyu stood there for a long time, and did not leave until early morning.

On the huge bed, the curtains were drawn tightly to block out the sunlight outside.The person on the bed didn't sleep well, and he didn't know what was muttering in his mouth.

"what……"

With a scream, Xia Ruoyu jumped up from the bed, gasping for breath.In the dream, those pictures kept interlacing.The long-lost nightmare eroded and closed his eyes.Xia Ruoyu kept trembling, everything restored, it really erased what happened, what was discarded by herself... those unbearable past...

xx Avenue, Chicago, USA

xx Avenue is one of the famous shopping centers in Chicago, with a large number of retailers, specialty stores and luxury stores.From children's clothing to home furniture, it can be described as everything.Weekend, a rare vacation.

Cheng Hanlei and An Ran, who never forget their parents and children while working and studying, are pushing a stroller in each hand. The two cute babies lying in the stroller are so cute that passers-by can't help but look sideways.Without the usual formal suits, both Cheng Hanlei and An Ran wore delicate light makeup, and their clothes were simple but stylish.

The young and beautiful face attracts the eyes of both Americans and overseas Chinese.After nearly two years, I have gotten used to this kind of gaze.The two bought a bunch of baby products and baby clothes, after swiping their cards and writing their addresses.Two people walked out of the nursery shop pushing a stroller.

An Ran looked at Cheng Hanlei who was walking ahead, wondering if it was because of experience and time that Cheng Hanlei had gradually matured.Her eyes stopped on the little baby she was pushing. From her point of view, it was hard to understand why she did this.

And just like Cheng Hanlei unconditionally supported her in giving birth to this child, she also supported Cheng Hanlei's decision.

"baron..."

A group of people were taking the elevator from the top floor to go downstairs. When the elevator went down from the fifth floor, Shangguanjue caught sight of a familiar figure walking into the elevator from the corner of his eye, and his first reaction was to recognize the wrong person again.But when he walked into the elevator and turned around, that familiar face...

Seeing the elevator rising slowly, Shangguanjue's body froze, the escalator was almost at the end.Shangguanjue turned around suddenly, walked along the escalator with big strides, and walked up with his backhand.

Seeing Shangguanjue losing control behind him, when he realized it, he immediately called Shangguanjue.The figure of Shangguanjue had already reached the top, and quickly ran towards the elevator.

When those people were about to go up from the elevator on the other side, Shangguan Jue's figure had already disappeared before his eyes.

This time, Shangguanjue made sure that he was right. When he ran up to the fifth floor, he watched the elevator stop on the fourth floor, but the familiar figure did not get off the elevator.Shangguanjue immediately turned around and walked towards the elevator entrance on the fifth floor.

When standing in front of the elevator, the elevator just arrived with a ding...
