"Why did you leave me alone seven months ago?"

The man's questioning voice rang out in the restaurant, his sharp tone carrying a hint of paranoia and complaint.

Gu Yanxi turned her head to face the man, and suddenly looked into his deep eyes as black as a pool of water.

Gu Yanxi panicked, and just as he was about to move away, his cell phone suddenly rang.

She seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and answered the phone.

Shirley's voice came from the other end:

"Jane, why aren't you in the hotel room? Where have you been?"

According to the itinerary, a group of them will go to the airport at 12 o'clock today, preparing to take the 1:35 pm flight back to France.

Gu Yanxi glanced at the time in the upper left corner of her phone.

It's a quarter past ten.

"I'm not in the hotel. I'm at a friend's house. I will meet everyone on time."

"Friends?" Shirley was surprised, "Why didn't I know you had such good friends in China? Are they friends who grew up together in the orphanage?"

"Well, yes." Gu Yanxi couldn't care less, she just wanted to get over it as soon as possible.

"Since you are friends who grew up together in the orphanage, your friendship must be very deep. It doesn't matter. You can talk to your friend more. As long as you can arrive at the airport on time, otherwise you will miss your flight."

"Don't forget that you have to attend a lecture on oil painting tomorrow."

"Okay, I understand, I'll be on time."

"..."

Gu Yanxi hung up the phone.

So I could naturally say to Fu Yanci: "Thank you for your hospitality, I have to go to the airport."

The next second she stood up in a panic and was about to leave, someone grabbed her wrist violently.

Fu Yanci stood up at some point and leaned towards her.

The cold fingertips of the man's other hand touched her chin, and his dark eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at her, "Orphan? So this is how you introduced yourself outside?"

Gu Yanxi did not dare to look directly into his eyes.

She just stared at him blankly, her dark pupils full of confusion.

"No...it's not." She explained awkwardly.

Fu Yanci raised his eyebrows and smiled, "No, you are not an orphan, or... I am not your friend who grew up together in the orphanage?"

He really didn't expect that she would just call him an orphan, and she would also call him an orphan.

Gu Yanxi was questioned into silence.

She felt the hand that was holding her slide down, and then a glass of pure milk was brought to her by Fu Yanci.

"Drink this glass of milk. You didn't eat much just now."

Gu Yanxi quickly took the milk, and under his calm gaze, he drank the entire glass of milk in a panic.

"Master, Miss Min is here and waiting for you in the living room."

Following the butler's reminder, Gu Yanxi's hand holding the cup paused slightly.

Miss Min.

Is it Min Yaoxi?

After hearing the butler's words, Fu Yanci responded and hurried over, as if he couldn't wait.

Gu Yanxi inexplicably didn't want to go out and meet the person named Min Yaoxi, so he sat down, picked up another sandwich and started to chew on it.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but when she went out again, there was no one in the living room.

Aunt Liu stopped cleaning and stood there, looking into her eyes.

"Miss Gu, Mr. Fu has some business matters to deal with, so he will go out first. If you need anything here, just call me."

"Oh." Gu Yanxi lowered her eyes.

Out.

He went out without saying hello to her.

The sound of a car engine starting came from the door of the villa.

They must have left.

"Meow~"

Before Gu Yanxi could take his eyes away from the door, something furry rubbed his ankle, causing a tingling sensation.

"Duango."

She squatted down and gently rubbed Tuanzi's head with her hands.

"This is the young master's cat." Aunt Liu saw this scene and explained kindly, "This cat suddenly disappeared a long time ago and suddenly came back last night. I just don't know why the hair was dyed like this."

Speaking of this, Aunt Liu seemed to think of something in the past, and said with some emotion: "Originally, the departure of the young master's fiancée was a big blow to the young master, and then the cat also disappeared. During that time, the young master was naked. He has lost weight visibly, and the master feels quite distressed when he sees it.”

"But it seems that since he met Miss Jane, the young master's mood has improved a lot."

"The young master has been very close to Miss Jian recently..."

"By the way, Miss Gu, I heard from the young master that you are also an oil painter. It's a coincidence that the young master's previous fiancée is also good at oil painting..."

Gu Yanxi just listened to Aunt Liu talking in detail and lowered her eyes slightly.

Seven months is not a long time, nor is it a short time. It is enough time for a lot of things to happen and a lot of things to change.

Maybe she had already broken Fu Yanci's heart.

Her departure will not make Fu Yanci stay where he is. He will meet new people, live a new life, his eyes will return to normal, and he may even fall in love with others as much as he fell in love with her.

What's more, that person is the woman who was engaged to him in his previous life.

It was his destined good match.

Gu Yanxi didn't know why, but he sighed a little sadly.

All the helplessness was hidden in this breath of relief.

She watched Aunt Liu's figure carrying the bucket disappear from sight, and slowly sat down on the sofa.

"Meow~"

Tuanzi jumped on her lap and buried his round cat face in her knees.

Tyson also walked out of the pet house and lay at her feet.

Time seems to have returned to the past, to the time before she left. If she could, she would like time to stop at this second, and she could covet this moment of stability...

But there is no if.

Two doctors in white coats hurriedly came in from the door, carrying trays of medicine in their hands, and hurried upstairs.

What they went up to do was self-evident.

With a "bang", Gu Yanxi seemed to hear the sound of something collapsing.

This beautiful castle in fantasy will eventually be shattered by reality one day.

As if a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist, Gu Yanxi's pupils shrank slightly.

No matter what, she can never ignore one fact——

Even if she wanted to go back to the past, one thing she could never go back to was Fu Nanyi's inability to wake up.

She could never ignore the fact that Fu Nanyi was turned into a vegetative state by her.

For the people she cares about, her existence will only bring them endless disasters.

Just like Liu Jianyuan said, she shouldn't live in this world. If she died, Fu Yanci would be engaged and married to Jian Yaoxi more smoothly and would not die because of her.

The eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother will not be implicated by her.

She had already paid the price once for her willfulness, and she could never bear a greater price than this, nor could she bear any more heavy self-blame and guilt.
