Shen Bai Chronicle

After this incident, Bai Chen hadn't seen Shen Yuchen for a while, and when he was finally out of sight and out of mind, and his ears were clear, his younger brother came to the door.

"Time to talk?"

"What are you talking about?" Bai Chen only thought that he was here to be a lobbyist for his brother, with a cold attitude, "I have nothing to say to him."

Shen Yufan frowned: "Did you misunderstand my brother?"

"...Misunderstanding?" Bai Chen smiled, maybe the face in front of her was too similar to that person, and the emotions hidden in her heart came out silently, about the once warm past, about the scene of leaving without saying goodbye His departure was related to all kinds of unspeakable injuries. Slowly, he smiled lightly and coldly, "When he left, he should have thought that there would be today's results. Now he regrets it, and said 'misunderstanding' Just want to erase what you did?"

He paused, put away that mocking smile, and said lightly: "Impossible, there is no such cheap thing in the world."

"..." Shen Yufan closed his eyes with a slight headache, thinking that he really deserved to be the person Shen Yuchen fell in love with, and even this stubborn and stubborn character was exactly the same as his brother, "My brother didn't just leave."

Bai Chen sat behind the desk, lowered his head to write the inspection report, ignored it, and Shen Yufan didn't care, anyway, he had to say something, believe it or not, he continued: "The older generation... finds it difficult to accept this kind of thing. , my brother kept it from grandpa for a long time, until grandpa found out by accident two years ago, he was so angry that he had a high blood pressure attack, and when he woke up, he asked him to kneel down and admit his mistake."

"My brother...will not admit his mistake."

"Grandpa was so angry at the time, he asked someone to keep an eye on him, and wanted to find the person who harmed his grandson, so my brother didn't mention you from the beginning to the end, and he didn't even dare to contact you when he was about to leave, for fear that grandpa would find out Your existence makes those people trouble you..."

Bai Chen was still writing, holding the pen steadily, but writing more and more slowly.

These things……

Shen Yuchen never said a word to him.

there has never been.

"You think my brother is irresponsible, right? Have you ever thought that he has endured so much alone, but he just doesn't want to put pressure on you?" Shen Yufan sighed silently, and told the truth, "In the past two years, he has been alone It's not a good time abroad..."

"..." Bai Chen wanted to say "he deserves it" to that person, but he gritted his teeth, the fingertips holding the pen turned white, and finally couldn't bear to say it.

No matter how he refused to admit it, he knew it in his heart.

What I can't let go of, even if I am tortured by that person, even if I have been warned again and again not to soften my heart, I can't stop those endless longings and nostalgia every night without him.

He couldn't let him go at all.

"I'm not here to speak for my brother, and he doesn't know that I'm meeting you today. Believe it or not, it's up to you." Shen Yufan knew that he had listened, so he revealed his real purpose, "Grandpa's birthday is at the end of November , the old man wants to see him, sit down and have a good talk, if possible, I hope you can help persuade him."

"...You don't want to persuade me?"

"I've persuaded him, but he won't listen to me." Shen Yufan smiled wryly, and looked at Bai Chen whose attitude had softened a bit, "It's because of you that he chose to break with Grandpa. Your persuasion is more effective than mine."

Bai Chen was silent, noncommittal.

"Om-"

After receiving a call from his girlfriend, Shen Yufan quickly left the consultation room. He sat at his desk and was stunned for a long while. It was not until a colleague came over to change shifts with him during the lunch break that he finally came back to his senses. Sent a text message.

"Are you free tonight? Let's meet up."

……

Not long after it was sent, the phone rang. Bai Chen took it out to look at the name on the screen, took a deep breath, connected it and put it to his ear and said "Hello".

For someone as cold as Shen Yuchen, his tone was a little more urgent, saying that he was discussing a project in the United States, and if he was in a hurry to meet, he would immediately book the fastest flight back.

Bai Chen interrupted him and said no.

"It's nothing urgent, and it's the same on the phone." He paused and said, "I heard that your grandpa's birthday is at the end of the month? If you have time, go back and have dinner with the old man."

There was a long silence on the other side, but Bai Chen knew that he hadn't hung up the phone, so for some reason, she waited patiently for his reply.

"...How do you know?"

"Is this very important?" Bai Chen asked him back, writing and drawing casually on the paper with a pen in his hand, "Don't worry, I'm just entrusted by others, it's up to you whether to go or not."

"White……"

Shen Yuchen seemed to want to say something, but Bai Chen suddenly didn't want to listen anymore, and he didn't even understand why he made this call. He clearly agreed that he would not have anything to do with this person, so what are he doing now?

"That's it, hang up."

The pen landed on the table with a "clack", and he followed the sound, but saw the tip of the pen slowly rolling over, which was the name of the person on the phone.

Repeatedly, as deep as a knife.

Like a mark imprinted in my heart.
