The CH01 area has never been absolutely lonely. Even from midnight to early morning when the night is heaviest, there are still sporadic figures walking back and forth in it intermittently.
The time Tang Yuchen came out was not too early for Ye, but it wasn't too late for CH01 District either.
His office is not in any particularly remote corner, and occasionally people will pass by the door.
But when he came out, he saw Lu Yingchen standing at the door.
It was so sudden that people were caught off guard, but there was no place to hide and avoid it.
But Tang Yuchen couldn't say that he was really unprepared. After telling the truth this morning, he also thought that sooner or later he would have to face Lu Yingchen—just like now, alone.
When facing Lu Yingchen with the identity of Shen Ying, he felt like he was wearing a mask, and Ni Duan's mask would not be easily discovered by others.
Under this mask, he didn't have to worry about the things that would have been considered if he were Tang Yuchen. He could say anything and dare to say anything.Because he knows that Shen Ying's identity is fake, so it doesn't matter if he uses the fake identity to say false words, dirty words, or even vicious spells—anyway, no one can trace the real face hidden under the fake mask to the end. Whoever it is, the real Tang Yuchen doesn't need to take any responsibility.
But once he faced Lu Yingchen with his real identity, he would never be able to switch to Shen Ying's role, and he would never be able to show the attitude and personality that Shen Ying's character would have.
Tang Yuchen looked at Lu Yingchen, his thoughts turned back and forth, but finally he calmed down.
That's right, they haven't seen each other for more than two years, and he almost scolded Lu Yingchen all the words he could use to scold Lu Yingchen a while ago; now seeing Lu Yingchen again, he doesn't know what else to do besides being calm.
The eyes of the two collided in the first second, but Tang Yuchen didn't look away. In his heart, he still stubbornly and ridiculously thought that whoever looked away first at such a time would be the first to show weakness.
——If the current him would show weakness to Lu Yingchen first, then he would really be buried in the snow-capped mountains and never come back for the rest of his life.
Tang Yuchen didn't intend to just stand here and stare blankly at Lu Yingchen, he made an appointment with Yuan Yike to meet in the living area.
It was only he who moved his feet, and before he could even take a step forward, Lu Yingchen said: "...Wait a minute, I have something for you."
Tang Yuchen's office is a corridor, and Lu Yingchen is standing at the corner of the corridor.
Seeing that Tang Yuchen seemed to be ignoring him and leaving, Lu Yingchen hastily took out the thing he had put on the ground before — it was the iron cage containing the little phoenix
"..."
But this was his own little phoenix in the first place, and he couldn't refuse to accept it.
When Tang Yuchen heard that Lu Yingchen wanted to give him something, he was ready to not want anything Lu Yingchen brought out... In the end, I have to say that Lu Yingchen picked the right thing this time, and Tang Yuchen can do everything else No, but only Little Phoenix, he will definitely want it.
Every time Little Phoenix is locked in a cage, his mood will be inexplicably depressed, and he must be tired at this time. Even when he sees Tang Yuchen, whom he hasn't seen for a long time, Little Phoenix doesn't show any special emotion. I was so happy, I didn't even cry out, I just spread my wings and fluttered a few times, then nestled back in my corner and continued to stare outside.
When he took over the birdcage, a very subtle feeling came to Tang Yuchen's heart, as if this one-sided challenge that he had silently calculated in his heart at the beginning and decided to compete with Lu Yingchen had just begun, and he unilaterally "Suffered from failure".
"Do you have anything else to do?"
Tang Yuchen thought that he could no longer use his real identity to say such arrogant words to Lu Yingchen, but in fact he did it when his mind was blank, and the feeling in his heart was even worse than when he scolded Lu Yingchen with Shen Ying's identity To come more happily.
"...No more." Lu Yingchen said cautiously, and kept looking at Tang Yuchen.
"Then can you get out of my way?"
After all, he was not the one who did the wrong thing back then, so Tang Yuchen felt that he didn't need to be too polite when talking to Lu Yingchen.
Lu Yingchen really gave way.
Tang Yuchen carried the cage and walked away. He didn't deliberately bump into Lu Yingchen's shoulder to show disdain or provocation, nor did he deliberately speed up his pace to leave here in a hurry, let alone look back at Lu Yingchen - in fact, he always wanted to What I achieved was this kind of indifference, not hating or scolding, but indifference like the current one that doesn't care at all.
The living area can also be regarded as being in the CH01 area. Although it is located at the very edge of the CH01 area, and half of the buildings are beyond the scope of the CH01 area, the entrance is still connected to the CH01 area.
Although Tang Yuchen was the only one on the road when he passed by, the lights were still brightly lit, so it didn't seem that he was too lonely alone.
But the bad thing was that he forgot to ask Xu Muyi for the access card.
If you want to enter the living area, you must have a pass card for the living area, which is usually handed over to the applicant after the room application is successful.It doesn’t matter if you take this card or not during the day, because there is only an automatic face recognition system during the day, and anyone in the CH01 area can go there; but at night, especially after ten o’clock in the evening, if you want to enter the living area , you must have a pass card.You must swipe your access card before you can enter the face recognition system.
During the day, Tang Yuchen's mind was so confused that he forgot that the living area required a pass card.
He knew that Xu Muyi must not be asleep at this point, but he was too embarrassed to call Xu Muyi at this late hour and asked him to come and give him a pass card.
Just when he was hesitating, it was Xu Muyi who called first.
"Hello? Yu Chen, have you left already?"
"Um... how did you know?"
"I haven't left yet. I took a look at your side after 10 o'clock and found that the light in your place was still on. After doing things for a while until after 11 o'clock, I looked at your side and the light was turned off." Xu Muyi smiled faintly, "Have you arrived at the living area yet? I still have your access card with me. I thought you would ask me to get it before you left, but I didn't expect you to leave just like that."
"Sorry, I forgot about the access card." Tang Yuchen smiled awkwardly.
"Where are you right now then?"
"It's at the entrance of the living area. I realized that I forgot to ask you for the card when I was almost there." Tang Yuchen said, "Are you still in the laboratory? Why don't you wait for me, I'll come over—"
Before Tang Yuchen could finish his sentence, Xu Muyi interrupted him: "Then you wait for me at the door, and I'll send it to you right now."
And after he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Tang Yuchen was really sorry that Xu Muyi always did this and that for himself, but no matter how many times he called, Xu Muyi didn't answer anymore.
It was impossible for Tang Yuchen to just stand at the door and wait for Xu Muyi to bring him the card.Sighing in his heart, Tang Yuchen also started to walk back, so that the two of them could at least meet on the way, and Xu Muyi could also take less time going back.
"Didn't I tell you to wait at the door? Why did you come back?" In order to meet Xu Muyi as soon as possible, Tang Yuchen deliberately quickened his pace on the return trip, but he didn't expect that Xu Muyi would trot all the way here. The two of them ran into each other At that time, Xu Muyi was still panting slightly.
"You're the one. It's fine if I can't get it when I go back, and I asked you to send it here."
"It's so late now, and the temperature inside is also low, I'm afraid your knees won't feel comfortable walking back and forth." Xu Muyi handed the pass card to Tang Yuchen.
"Thank you."
Xu Muyi noticed the cage in Tang Yuchen's hand, and also saw the little Phoenix inside, so he asked curiously: "...Did you take Little Phoenix back?"
"……Yep."
"But if I remember correctly, you probably haven't left the main area today, have you?"
When Tang Yuchen couldn't take care of Little Phoenix, he would foster it in a pet shop.The environment there is good, and the staff treat small animals with gentleness and care. The only disadvantage is that it is far away from CH01 area, and it takes at least one and a half hours to come and go each time.
Xu Muyi has been paying attention to Tang Yuchen's activities all the time. It is impossible for him to not know when Tang Yuchen went out for an hour and a half... Xu Muyi asked suspiciously, "Could it be that Lu Yingchen brought it back for you?"
Now that Xu Muyi guessed it, there's no point in explaining it again, Tang Yuchen admitted: "Well, he took it back."
"When did you meet?"
Tang Yuchen frowned slightly with Xu Muyi's aggravated voice and Yue's questioning question. He asked, "What's wrong?"
"Don't you want to see him again? Why do you want to see him again?"
If Xu Muyi had told him well without such an unpleasant tone, Tang Yuchen would have told him what happened just now.But Xu Muyi's tone of voice made him feel very annoying - he himself didn't want to keep mentioning the matter between himself and Lu Yingchen, but Xu Muyi would always hold on to issues related to Xu Muyi from time to time, as if he insisted on going from time to time. He seemed to be asking something out of his mouth.
"You calm down."
Tang Yuchen's understatement of five words really calmed down Xu Muyi's emotions.
"excuse me, I……"
The good mood that was warm for Xu Muyi's behavior has almost dissipated at this time, Tang Yuchen exhaled and said: "Forget it, it's late, let's talk about something tomorrow."
"...Well." In fact, Xu Muyi was very afraid that Tang Yuchen would get angry with him because of this, "Then I'll see you tomorrow, you go to bed early."
"OK Bye Bye."
Tang Yuchen, who finally entered the living area, went to Yuan Yike's room before returning to his own room.
After all, the two of them made an appointment to meet in the living area at night. It was already so late when he came over, and Yuan Yike might have been waiting for a long time.
But the strange thing is that the door of Yuan Yike's room was ajar, but there was no one inside.
This is very strange, Yuan Yi is not the kind of person who says he will come but never comes; and even if he really does not come, he will definitely say hello to himself in advance... But Tang Yuchen found out that since the afternoon After Yuan Yike left, he did not receive any news related to him...
The time Tang Yuchen came out was not too early for Ye, but it wasn't too late for CH01 District either.
His office is not in any particularly remote corner, and occasionally people will pass by the door.
