cloud waterfront

The sunset glow gradually faded, and the sky gradually darkened.Ye Han stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room, looking at the Dianchi Lake glowing with microwaves.The deep water surface was dyed more and more darker and darker layer by layer, and the scattered light spots gradually disappeared.

She kept reminding herself in her heart: "That's all in the past, they've already ended..."

But the long story that touched her deeply, those plots and scenes that seemed to have been witnessed in person, are so clearly displayed in her mind one by one.At this moment, those laughing words and joyful faces can be clearly and unmistakably substituted into two clear faces, as well as voices, smiles, every expression, every subtle movement, which is unprecedentedly real.

This is no longer a distant story that only exists on the virtual network, but has really happened around me, and happened to the person I love.At this moment, she can fully understand the helplessness and melancholy hidden in Wu Ruoyang's eyes, and the sweetness and nostalgia in Liang Yutong's words, and even feels that she has traveled to that time and space and witnessed their entire love story.

Ye Han smiled and said to himself: "It's all in the past..." Before the words fell, tears fell down first.

In a story that is extremely real and cannot be erased, the identity of a belated bystander is the most sad and deplorable.

Recalling Wu Ruoyang and Liang Yutong's peaceful expression when they met, Ye Han closed his eyes with a wry smile.Thinking of the text message on Wu Ruoyang's mobile phone on the night of Wu Ruoyang's birthday, the number without a name, everything became clear.

But now, what kind of mood and expression should she use to face the person she has silently fallen in love with?Love is like a multi-faceted Rubik's cube. Until this moment, Ye Han could see clearly the other side that has been hidden behind the sweetness—the unspeakable bitterness.

The next day, the work continued as usual, and everything was as usual.No one mentioned yesterday's emergency meeting, and no one mentioned Wu Ruoyang's name.From morning to get off work, Ye Han called Wu Ruoyang several times, but no one answered.

It wasn't until after get off work that Su Jie found Ye Han alone, handed her a work schedule that Wu Ruoyang had compiled, and told her that Wu Ruoyang was on vacation temporarily and would not appear again during this period.

Ye Han knew in his heart that apart from Su Jie, no one in the whole world would be willing to take a step closer to Wu Ruoyang at this time.Whether it is to be wise and protect oneself, or to add insult to injury, no matter if they have a good relationship or just don't answer, they all chose to remain silent.But isn't this the time when she needs people's attention the most?

"I want to... go and see her." When Ye Han went to Wu Ruoyang's house last time, it was too dark to see the name of the community, so he could only ask Su Jie for help.

Su Jie looked at Ye Han slightly in surprise, and quickly smiled and said, "She probably doesn't have time, she's going out with her friends tonight."

"What about tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow she will go shopping with Fang Nvxia, and then send her to the airport at night."

"What about the day after tomorrow?"

"The day after tomorrow... the day after tomorrow..."

Ye Han lowered her eyes in disappointment. From Su Jie's flickering gaze, she could already confirm that Wu Ruoyang was avoiding her on purpose.

Su Jie pressed Ye Han's shoulders and comforted her with a smile: "You, don't think too much. I've been so busy with work recently, so take a good rest at the hotel if you have nothing to do. Esther will be back after her vacation."

It wasn't until she watched Ye Han walk into the lobby of the crime scene hotel that Su Jie breathed a sigh of relief.When she came to the parking lot and just got into her car, her phone rang.

Su Jie looked at the calling number and hesitated for a moment before answering the phone.

"Senior Sister." On the other end of the phone, Liang Yutong's voice was as calm as water.

Su Jie smiled without pain or itch: "It's really rare, you didn't dial the wrong number, did you?"

"I heard about what happened yesterday."

"What? You can hear this too? It spread really fast!"

"I just want to ask, is that photo of me and Ruoyang that Rita held in her hand yesterday?"

"Yeah," Su Jie became furious when she thought of that photo, and rolled her eyes out of the car window angrily, "I took the photo for you two!"

"Ruoyang, is she... okay?"

"Well, you don't have to worry about it."

"Sister, I will take care of this matter."

The relationship between Wu Ruoyang and Liang Yutong has been spread throughout Baishi in just two days. In the eyes of many people, it seems that there is an obvious answer to this project leak.

For the past few days, Wu Ruoyang has been staying at home, having dinner with Fang Nan in the morning, and then going shopping.When it was 12:[-] noon, Fang Nan had to go to bed on time strictly according to his biological clock.

After Fang Nan fell asleep, Wu Ruoyang sat at the desk and buried himself in writing the report Mr. Dai wanted.The three occasional encounters with Liang Yutong in the four years have been described in less than a thousand words, but such a page is obviously not enough.She had no choice but to try her best to recall the details of the three meetings, including the location, environment, weather, lighting, etc., and finally scraped together three pages full of paper.

Fang Nan booked a flight for Thursday night.Wu Ruoyang only said that he had just finished working for a while and won a few days off, so Fang Nan didn't ask any further questions.But after all, mother and daughter are connected, how could Fang Nan fail to see that Wu Ruoyang was listless on vacation these days.

In the airport lobby, Fang Nan was sitting on a lounge chair with a cup of coffee in his hand, casually flipping through the magazines in his hand.

"Baby, if you don't want to talk, I won't ask. But I don't like it when you keep everything to yourself."

"I know." Sitting beside Fang Nan, Wu Ruoyang put his fingers on the luggage handle and picked it absently.

Fang Nan still stared at the magazine, picked up the coffee and took a sip leisurely, as if waiting for an answer.

Wu Ruoyang straightened up slowly, leaned on the back of the chair, and said lightly: "I'm a little tired recently."

"Are you tired?"

Wu Ruoyang was silent for a moment before continuing, "The company knows about me and Tongtong."

"So what?" Fang Nan sneered, "Those rare guys are gossiping again? Just ignore them."

"The problem is..." Wu Ruoyang knew that the biggest threat now came from the investigation team's suspicion of her, not from those who made sarcastic remarks, but the leak of the plan was too troublesome to explain, and she was afraid that her parents would worry about her if they found out.After thinking for a moment, she still decided not to report it.

Fang Nan closed the magazine and turned to look at his daughter. "Since you're not happy working here, why don't you come with me. Let's find Mr. Wu for coffee."

Wu Ruoyang shook his head slowly.

Fang Nan suddenly remembered the familiar scene a few years ago, and couldn't help laughing. "The last time I asked you to go to the United States with me, you insisted on staying for Tongtong. Who is it for this time?"

Wu Ruoyang thought for a moment, then smiled lightly. "For no one, I like it here."

"Yangyang," Fang Nan stared into Wu Ruoyang's eyes with a smile, "I will not interfere with your affairs. I know you will handle everything well, and you have always been considerate of others, but... ...don't feel bad about yourself."

Wu Ruoyang was silent, trembling slightly in his heart, after a while he looked up to Fang Nan and said with a smile, "Got it."

"Even if the sky falls, there will still be Fang Nvxia and Old Wu behind you." Fang Nan embraced his daughter and kissed her on the cheek.

There were no stars in the heavy night, and the clouds were as low as lead weights overhead.Wu Ruoyang raised his head slightly and watched the international flight disappear into the night sky, only to realize that the corners of his eyes were moist.

A sudden sense of loneliness hit her body, as if the whole world was gradually moving away from her.She thought that she could remain calm from beginning to end like in the meeting that day, if not for Fang Nan's words just now, she might really be able to do it.But in front of the closest relatives, no matter how strong the defense line is, it is easy to collapse.At this time, she suddenly realized that she was actually stronger than she imagined.But no matter how strong a person is, there will be times when they can't hold on.

She got back in the car, sat quietly for a while, and then started the engine.The car drove out of the airport and headed south along the empty asphalt road. Clusters of dim street lights passed over the car, illuminating the road away from the city.

Although most of the Yunyun Waterfront is still a construction site, from the entrance to the hotel and sales center, it is already completely new, just waiting for the grand opening ceremony on Sunday.

Wu Ruoyang slowed down the speed of the car, turned a few times around the road around the crime scene, and finally bypassed it slowly, and drove up the small hill behind the project.She understands that her car shouldn't be on the scene at all right now, and she shouldn't go to Ye Han rashly, but she doesn't want to go anywhere, she just wants to come to this place, even if she looks at the hotel building from a distance, it looks like One glance is also good.

The viewing platform on the top of the mountain has been completely built. The huge open space is paved with granite floor tiles, and a row of two-story shops and a parking lot have been built next to it.The messy mound and the big rock that was just big enough for two people to stand on half a year ago have long since disappeared. The branches and leaves of the surrounding trees have also been pruned, and they are far away from the fence, so that no one can be hurt anymore.

Wu Ruoyang came to the side of the stone railing where the two of them had stopped that day. Looking around, the hotel building at night looked extraordinarily bright and eye-catching. All are covered with bright LED lights.

Vaguely, on the main road in front of the hotel, two figures appeared under the lights.They were too far apart, and Wu Ruoyang couldn't see the appearance of the two of them clearly, and she didn't intend to take a closer look, but the petite and exquisite figure of one of them made her unable to look away.Even though the face is blurred, under the light, the pink-blue dress looks like a dancing butterfly, and also looks like the absolute protagonist on the stage who fascinates all beings. No matter how far away he is, he can't be ignored.

And the one next to him, as can be seen from his body shape and pace, is a tall man.At this time, he was walking with soft steps, walking slowly with the woman beside him.

Until the two disappeared into the blind spot of sight, Wu Ruoyang still couldn't distinguish their faces.She glanced unconsciously towards the parking lot behind the hotel, and sure enough, she saw the bright yellow Ferrari.

Perhaps because of being on the shore of Dianchi Lake, Wu Ruoyang felt that the wind tonight seemed to be particularly cool. When he looked up at the sky, it was still gloomy and foggy.

She turned around and sat on the ground with her back against the stone railing.I suddenly hoped that time would pass faster, and when I cleared myself of the suspicion, I planned to accompany Ye Han well and not let her be so lonely alone.But she also hoped that time would not pass by too quickly. She was afraid that she would not be able to catch up with Ye Han in time, and that what was waiting for her one day would be the backs of others in pairs.

After a long time, Wu Ruoyang got up and went back to the car, slowly reached out to open the car door, stood still for a while, but closed the car door again.She turned back to the platform and walked aimlessly along the landscape path on one side, not even noticing that the sky was already raining.Go around the sculpture in the center of the platform, go all the way to the end of the path, turn around and turn back, and walk slowly to the other end through the rain.
