Master Zuojing is sticking to me again

At the airport in City B, Wen Xiaoyu returned to the lounge after answering the phone, and saw He Xiran sitting on the sofa watching videos with an iPad.

He was dressed in off-white clothes, and he looked fresh and clean.With his chin resting on his right hand, two slender legs overlapped, his back was straight, and his whole person exuded a confident and elegant temperament.

The current He Xiran has lost the inferiority complex he had when they first reunited, and shed the showy flamboyance of his youth. Time has left no traces on his face, only sculpting him into a more beautiful and stunning appearance.

Looking at him like this, Wen Xiaoyu felt as if a bay of hot springs flowed through his heart, exuding a refreshing softness.

He Xiran was wearing headphones, watching the video so intently that he didn't even notice it when he walked up to him.Wen Xiaoyu looked around and found that he was watching the video from the day of the press conference.When I saw the end, I pulled the progress bar a little further, just to read again the sentence he said at the end of the press conference, "He Xiran has never been anyone's stand-in, he is the only one."

Wen Xiaoyu rubbed his smooth hair, and said with a smile: "I like it that much? If you want to hear it, I will tell you once a day."

He Xiran was watching intently, and was taken aback by him unexpectedly, his cheeks were dyed a layer of bright red, and he wanted to cover it up: "You...you are so thick-skinned, who likes to hear it, I just took a casual look."

"You've looked at it 'casually' a few times, you might as well look at it in person if you have the time." Wen Xiaoyu sat down beside him and confiscated the iPad for him.

"Who told you to keep calling, running out one after another, without seeing anyone for a long time." He Xiran whispered.

After the film conference was held that day, Wen Xiaoyu directly threw the rest of the publicity work to the company.He and He Xiran have been busy for several months, neither having a good rest nor spending time together.

This time, taking advantage of the temporary conclusion of their work, Wen Xiaoyu booked two tickets to Lancheng, planning to take He Xiran there for vacation.

But after all, he is the chief director of the film, so he can't really let go of all his work. During the short period of waiting for the plane, he has already gone out to answer several calls.

"I won't call anymore, I'll turn off the phone now." Wen Xiaoyu was also sorry for this, and was about to turn off the phone when the phone rang again suddenly.

He Xiran glared at him, and said reluctantly: "Forget it, you should pick it up, work is important."

"It's not about work, it's Lao Zhao." Wen Xiaoyu handed the phone to him, motioning him to check it.

Since He Xiran's name frequently appeared on the Internet, Lao Zhao and many old classmates have contacted Wen Xiaoyu.Knowing that he really came back and participated in Wen Xiaoyu's movie, they were all happy for them.

Lao Zhao called this time mainly to say that the end of the year was approaching, and he wanted Wen Xiaoyu to bring He Xiran back to Xuancheng and go to his house to celebrate the New Year together.

He Xiran was listening to the phone at the side, hesitating and not agreeing, it seemed that he was not yet mentally prepared.Wen Xiaoyu said to Lao Zhao: "Wait until next year, this year we will live alone first, and next year we will take him to give you New Year's greetings."

On the other end of the phone, Old Zhao threw his head back angrily, cursing: "You just protect him, just hide him in your pocket, no one will let anyone see it!"

"I would really like to, but their wings are stiff now, so they won't let me hide." Wen Xiaoyu glanced at He Xiran, and said lightly.

He Xiran bit her lower lip, and looked at him eagerly, a little apologetic and aggrieved in her eyes.Wen Xiaoyu raised her fingertips to lick his lips, and gently twirled his soft and full lips, her eyes became more and more serious.

Old Zhao naturally couldn't see the atmosphere on their side, so he continued to chatter and ask, "Where are you two going to celebrate the New Year? City B?"

"In Lancheng." Wen Xiaoyu cleared his throat and said, "Let's go there for vacation and celebrate the New Year by the way."

"Celebrating the New Year in a hotel? It's so tasteless, it's better to stay at home." Old Zhao said with deep regret.

"Who said we have to stay in a hotel? We have a home in Lancheng." He looked at He Xiran and said.

He Xiran suddenly opened his eyes wide, filled with disbelief, and asked with a trembling voice, "What... home?"

"Our home." Wen Xiaoyu touched the corner of his eyes and said with a smile.

After getting off the plane, the two went straight to the house that Wen Xiaoyu bought in Lancheng.Sitting in the car, He Xiran tightly held Wen Xiaoyu's hand, his palm was full of sweat.Looking at the strange yet familiar scenery outside the window, his eyes got wet again and again.

When he came to a house by the sea, Wen Xiaoyu put the key into his hand and said, "The house you chose yourself, open this door yourself. It has been waiting for you for a long time."

"When did you buy it?" He Xiran asked tearfully.

Wen Xiaoyu looked at him quietly for a while, with gentle sadness in his eyes, and said like a sigh: "Five years ago."

Five years ago, in order to buy the house as a surprise for He Xiran and realize their ideal life, Wen Xiaoyu went to the wine shop, but lost He Xiran in the end.

When the real estate company called to collect money, he really hated him.He is not a saint. He Xiran left as soon as he said he wanted to, and left him no word. He searched like crazy, even though he was sick all over, but he couldn't find him. It was impossible for him not to hate him.

So to the last deposit call, he said he didn't want this house.But he thought about it again, if He Xiran came back tomorrow, he would be very angry knowing that he had returned the house.He Xiran was already very sad because he chose to go to work, and he couldn't let He Xiran continue to cry after he came back.

He promised to give He Xiran a home, no matter whether He Xiran is by his side, he can't go back on his word.After hanging up the phone for a second, he called back and bought the house.

When He Xiran heard the three words "five years ago", tears could no longer be held back, as if a bank had burst.

He opened the door with tears in his eyes, and every detail was exactly as he had imagined.The big creamy white sofa, the black crystal projection screen that occupies half of the wall, the sunset lights in the corner that create an atmosphere...

When he came to the bedroom on the second floor, his tears became more violent.It is evening now, and the sunset has dyed half of the sky red, and the soft afterglow spills in through the floor-to-ceiling windows and falls on the soft big bed.Outside the window, a large white woven rattan hanging chair is hung on the spacious balcony, with a circle of small string lights wrapped around it.

He looked at the sea outside the window, a scene that would only appear in dreams, but it really unfolded before his eyes at this moment.All of this was given to him by Wen Xiaoyu.Wen Xiaoyu remembered everything he wanted, and fulfilled it for him one by one.Even in the time when he disappeared.

He turned around and wrapped his arms around Wen Xiaoyu's neck, and no longer evaded, he stood on tiptoe and kissed Wen Xiaoyu's lips actively.

This house waited for five years for another owner, and Wen Xiaoyu also waited for five years for this resolute kiss.Five years of days and nights, looking back now, I don't know how I survived.

Until kissing He Xiran until his legs became weak, Wen Xiaoyu bent down and picked him up and put him on the bed.Kissed away all his tears, blocked the several choked sobs in his throat, once again, inseparably merged with him.

The cloud-like curtains fluttered gently with the sea breeze, and the dark night was dotted with twinkling stars. The bedroom gradually became quiet, only the sound of breathing remained.

They did it many times that night, Wen Xiaoyu seemed to want to get back all the money owed for five years, and almost didn't give He Xiran a chance to breathe all night.

He Xiran lay softly on the bed, comfortable and tired, two contradictory but harmonious feelings intertwined in his body, making him lazily not wanting to move a single finger.

A thin layer of sweat beads floated on his snow-white back, shining faintly under the dim light.Wen Xiaoyu bent down, untied the red rope around his neck, took off the ring, and put it on the ring finger of his left hand.

Ten fingers intertwined, the two rings carrying good wishes meet again, and they will never be separated again.

***

They spent the New Year in Lancheng like this. There will never be a shortage of homeless people in this city. People from all over the world gather here. The New Year of the two of them does not seem lonely.

On New Year's Eve, the two of them had a New Year's Eve dinner at Bange's youth hostel.The night here is always so lively, the faces of the young artists have changed several times, and they are not familiar with each other, but they give everyone the most sincere blessings when the New Year comes.

Some people recognized the two of them, especially He Xiran, who is now active on the screen and has become a rising star in the entertainment industry. This night, he met many young fans asking him for autographs.

Wen Xiaoyu leaned on the chair, watching him gently and friendly sign autographs and take photos with several girls, feeling a sense of accomplishment in his heart.His boy is on the path of his dreams and will be recognized and loved more and more.

As long as she thinks that she will always stand by his side and walk with him, the sense of anticipation for the future will rise in Wen Xiaoyu's heart irresistibly.

After midnight, most people are drinking and chatting.When the wine was getting familiar, Brother Ban used Jiu Jin to tell He Xiran about the scene when Wen Xiaoyu came to him that summer five years ago.

He said that even after so many years, that scene is still fresh in his memory.At that time, Wen Xiaoyu seemed to have lost half of his life. If he couldn't find him, he might have lost the other half.

He Xiran lowered his head as he listened, tears streaming down his face.Wen Xiaoyu put her hand on the back of his neck, rubbed it once and for all, and comforted: "It's over, don't be sad."

He signaled Brother Ban to stop talking, and picked up the wine glass on the table to take another sip, but He Xiran held down his wrist, sniffed and ordered: "Don't drink any more."

When he was on the set before, he supervised Wen Xiaoyu to eat on time and not to eat indiscriminately. Later, he separated to work separately, and he never forgot to remind him when he called every day.His words are more effective than the doctor's, plus the real good medicine is by his side, Wen Xiaoyu's stomach problem has indeed improved a lot in the past six months.

"Just one sip. It's the Chinese New Year today, let's be flexible." Wen Xiaoyu acted like a baby for the first time in his life, without feeling the slightest blush.

"No, no, no, I've already accommodated that one just now." He Xiran's heart ached, and he was determined not to back down on this matter.

"Hey!" Wen Xiaoyu sighed exaggeratedly, and obediently put down his wine glass.Brother Ban watched them laugh heartily, which made He Xiran's face turn red.

On the day "Undercurrent" was released, the two disguised themselves with hats and masks, and bought two corner seats to watch a movie that belonged to them.

At the end, Yunguan's figure disappeared into the vast snow.He Xiran leaned her head on Wen Xiaoyu's shoulder, weeping silently.

Feeling the wetness on her shoulders, Wen Xiaoyu turned her face and said: "If you feel uncomfortable, don't read it."

He Xiran shook his head, and said in a low voice, "I acted really well."

Wen Xiaoyu smiled, put his arms around his shoulders, and rubbed his arms.

The sobbing around hadn't stopped since the second half of the movie. At the end of the movie, a girl next to her wiped her tears and said, "Wen Xiaoyu is such a man."

Her friends agreed: "He is really good at taking pictures, how can he tell such a beautiful story and take such beautiful pictures of people."

"That's right, He Xiran is the real beauty. He is beautiful and has good acting skills. I take back what I said earlier. I think his potential is greater than Qiao Chuman."

"Hush—keep your voice down, there are a lot of fans here, be careful of being scolded. I think Xiao Qiao is also pretty good, but he lacks a complicated feeling, not as energetic as He Xiran."

"Hey, I heard that Wen Xiaoyu and Qiao Chuman broke up because of He Xiran, is this true?"

"It should be true. Wen Qiao's cp fans cried like crazy, scolded He Xiran on the trending searches, but was soon suppressed."

"I think Wen and He are more compatible. Isn't Wen Xiaoyu's 'He Xiran is the only one' that Wen Xiaoyu said at the press conference equal to the official announcement? This trending search has not been removed for two days."

"Puchi—" He Xiran burst into tears upon hearing this.You must know that in order to maintain that trending search, Wen Xiaoyu, the de-hot search madman himself, liked and reposted several articles, properly "with ulterior motives".

The girls heard the laughter, turned their heads and looked at them, then you squeezed me, I poked you, and said in a softer voice: "He is so cute, just now he was leaning on his boyfriend's shoulder and crying secretly , and now laughing again."

Wen Xiaoyu didn't hear what they said clearly, but He Xiran heard them clearly, her face under the mask turned red up to her ears, and she dragged Wen Xiaoyu away from the cinema quickly.

In the next few days, the praise of "Undercurrent" swept the entire Internet, and senior film critics successively issued commendatory long comments. All major platforms rushed to post relevant videos to get the popularity. A well-known movie rating website even scored a high score of 8.9 .

For a while, entries such as "Wen Xiaoyu's another masterpiece", "Shen Jiayu and Yue Zhonglin's beautiful love", "He Xiran's beauty and acting skills coexist" appeared frequently on the Internet, and the popularity of the movie remained undiminished two weeks after its release.

At the same time, Wen Xiaoyu and He Xiran's vacation is coming to an end.He Xiran has already piled up several announcements, and there are still many movie and TV drama scripts in the hands of the agent, waiting for him to go back and solve them.

But he didn't want to leave Wen Xiaoyu for a second, turned off his mobile phone, and pestered Wen Xiaoyu for a whole day without getting out of bed, which made Wen Xiaoyu lose control time and time again, and he himself was tormented to the point of losing his mind up.

Later, Wen Xiaoyu carried him into the bathroom to take a shower, but the two of them stayed in there for two hours and couldn't come out. If it wasn't for the cell phone ringing like death outside, they didn't know how many times they would have to rewash.

Wen Xiaoyu wiped He Xiran dry and put him on the bed, wrapping him in a fluffy blanket.I wrapped a towel and sat next to him, took the mobile phone that had just been quiet for a second, and saw that there were more than 40 missed calls in a mess.

"Who is calling?" He Xiran asked softly.

Wen Xiaoyu had a bad premonition in her heart, and before she could speak, a call from the child star came in.

"It's a child star." Wen Xiaoyu touched his face as bright as moonlight, and connected the phone.

The child star's voice with a thick nasal voice immediately exploded over there: "My grandpa! You have answered the phone! Did you also see the news? Why did He Xiran...why didn't he tell us? Forget it Let's not talk about this, you can bring him back quickly, their company is going crazy looking for him."

"What news?" Wen Xiaoyu asked, his brows were furrowed, and he looked at He Xiran who was drowsy beside him.

"Huh?" He Xiran opened his hazy and pure eyes like an innocent child, looking back at him in confusion.

"You didn't watch it?" Tong Xing hesitated all of a sudden, and said falteringly, "If you haven't watched it, don't watch it, you can bring him back first."

"What news?" Wen Xiaoyu lowered his voice and asked again.

As long as it is related to He Xiran, it is impossible for him not to care.In an instant, all the bad reviews, gossip, and scandals that might appear on He Xiran flashed through his mind one after another, and he tried his best to calmly imagine which one would make the child star so flustered.

Seeing his face change, He Xiran couldn't help but wake up, sat up and approached him nervously and suspiciously.

Tong Xing was silent for a moment, with trembling in his breath, he gritted his teeth and said, "He Xiran's mother killed his father 13 years ago, and died of illness five years ago."

The bedroom was very quiet, and the child star's voice came clearly from the phone.Wen Xiaoyu felt as if she didn't understand what he said, and her mind went blank for an instant.He looked at He Xiran hesitantly, and found that He Xiran's face was as white as a piece of paper, and his whole body was so pale that it was about to collapse.

"I sent you the news video." Tong Xing seemed afraid of disturbing the silence on their side, and said in a low voice, "I won't bother you, remember to ask He Xiran to contact his manager."

***

"...According to relevant sources, He Xiran's mother suffered from severe schizophrenia and had extremely aggressive and violent behaviors when she became ill."

"13 years ago, his mother pierced his father's heart with a dagger during an illness, causing him to die on the spot."

"After legal procedures, his mother caused harmful results when she was unable to control her behavior, so she is not responsible for the crime. She only ordered her guardian, He Xiran's grandmother, to take strict supervision and medical treatment."

"It is reported that He Xiran, who was only 12 years old at the time, was at the scene of the incident. This scene caused a serious psychological shadow on him. After that, he underwent psychological treatment for a year."

"Five years ago, his mother died of illness at home. This incident dealt a great blow to He Xiran. He had already been admitted to the B City Film Academy at that time, but he never reported."

"Since then, He Xiran and his grandmother disappeared from the sight of the people around him. After five years, he reappeared in City B. Then, where did He Xiran go during the five years of disappearance?"

"According to people familiar with the situation, he once met He Xiran and his grandmother in a private mental hospital in City Y. At that time, both of them seemed to be in an unstable mental state."

"Relevant information pointed out that genetic factors are considered to be one of the factors for the onset of schizophrenia. After witnessing the tragic death of his father 13 years ago, He Xiran had already suffered from the disease once. He witnessed the death of his mother again five years ago, and his condition may have become more serious. "

"I heard that he lost control many times on the shooting scene of "The Undercurrent", causing a simple shot to be shot repeatedly for a whole day before it passed. This may also be his performance when he fell ill, and he deliberately concealed his illness. Horrible thing."

"We have now contacted Dream Weaving Entertainment Brokerage Co., Ltd., to which He Xiran belongs, but the person in charge of the company said that they have not yet contacted He Xiran, who is on vacation, so they cannot give more information."

"Is He Xiran on a so-called vacation, or has he chosen to escape again? As a well-known public figure..."

"Snapped."

Wen Xiaoyu turned off the news video sent by the child star, and threw the phone aside.The following explanations became more and more outrageous, making it impossible for him to continue watching.

He Xiran looked at the beginning and went to pack his things. He looked calm, as if he had thought that these things would be exposed sooner or later.With his back facing Wen Xiaoyu, his figure was slender and thin, Wen Xiaoyu didn't dare to think about what he had experienced.

"Aran..." Wen Xiaoyu walked over and hugged He Xiran tightly from behind.

He had wondered countless times what happened five years ago, and He Xiran left him without a sound.But when the truth was exposed in such a straightforward way, he even felt that he was unable to bear it.

For the first time, Wen Xiaoyu felt that she was so small in front of fate.Even though He Xiran disappeared five years ago, he still had the determination to fight fate to the end, so he never gave up searching and waiting.

But when he learned that He Xiran had experienced such a frightening past, but he was not by his side, Wen Xiaoyu only felt that perhaps he had never overcome fate.While he was suffering great pain and putting in all his efforts, He Xiran was also experiencing a dark time.

"You don't have to worry too much." He Xiran said calmly, "A lot of what they said is false, but it's actually not...not that scary."

"Then tell me." Wen Xiaoyu turned him around, looked at him with red eyes and said, "What is the truth, I only believe what you say."

He didn't believe the rumors that He Xiran suffered from hereditary schizophrenia.He Xiran sometimes gets paranoid to the extreme, but it's definitely not that serious.He is the one who stays with He Xiran every day, how could he not understand He Xiran's mental state.

But apart from these nonsense, the previous things about He Xiran's parents are probably true. After all, human life is at stake, and even entertainment news dare not fake it.

He Xiran smiled at him, with a slight smile, and slightly curved eyebrows, and said: "I don't have genetic schizophrenia. I was doing psychotherapy for post-traumatic stress disorder 13 years ago, and it wasn't a disease."

His tone was very relaxed, but Wen Xiaoyu didn't relax at all, instead, he became even more worried when he heard his understatement and content.

Wen Xiaoyu closed his eyes, trying to suppress the panic in his heart, and asked, "So when your father passed away, were you really there?"

"Ah."

Just a simple syllable fell in Wen Xiaoyu's ears, as if a thunder had exploded, and the pain made his brain blare.

For the attention of bloggers, these media exposed this matter as a joke, and in the end they threw a basin of dirty water on the grounds of speculation.Who could have imagined how desperate He Xiran must have been at the beginning, he was only 12 years old at that time.

Such a terrifying scene is difficult even for adults, let alone a 12-year-old child?The young boy has undergone psychotherapy for a whole year, and he has tried his best to grow into what he was later.

Wen Xiaoyu caressed his cheek, unable to control the trembling of her fingers, and asked the question that she wanted to know the most, and it was the question that made him almost breathless at the moment: "Where was it five years ago? What happened that night?"

He Xiran stepped forward and stuck to his body. In this posture, there was a feeling that the two were relying on each other and supporting each other so that they would not fall down.

"After my mother was discharged from Jingwan Hospital five years ago, her condition has not been very good. She fell into suffocation after she became ill that night, and never woke up again." Speaking of her mother, He Xiran could no longer maintain her superficial calm and trembled. I shed tears.

Wen Xiaoyu thought that he already knew the outcome of the matter, and he would not be so sad when he heard the truth.But He Xiran's trembling spread to his body, and it seemed that it also transmitted the longing and pain, causing his heart to contract suddenly.

The image of He Xiran's mother came to mind, she was so gentle and kind when she was awake.Wen Xiaoyu's ears suddenly heard what she said——

"I will hand him over to you, please protect him well, please, I...I will pray for you."

Wen Xiaoyu's heart ached sharply. It turned out that at that time she already had a premonition that her time was running out, so she entrusted her son to him.But he failed to keep his promise to protect He Xiran, which caused him to encounter so many misfortunes.

"Why didn't you tell me? What happened that night, why did you leave without telling me?" Wen Xiaoyu asked hoarsely.

He Xiran froze for a moment, as if hearing something unbelievable.He straightened up slowly, tears seemed to have froze, and he said with a face full of surprise: "I called you a lot and sent messages, but you didn't answer or reply."

Wen Xiaoyu was struck by lightning immediately, and quickly searched his memory for everything that happened that night.That night he went to the "Zuiyuxuan" to participate in the drinking party. After getting drunk, he stayed on the seventh floor for one night. When he woke up, there was no message on his phone, and the necklace was gone.It was Bai An who told him that the alarm clock on the phone rang only once...

It's Bai An.Wen Xiaoyu finally understood that it was Bai An who deleted all the records, and it was he who... took their necklaces and let them waste five years.

"What's wrong?" He Xiran asked worriedly when he saw that his expression changed several times, and finally hatred appeared.

"I was drunk that night, so I didn't see your call and message." Wen Xiaoyu's voice was chilly, "Bai An deleted it."

"I thought..." He Xiran covered her mouth, tears rolled down again, "I thought you were angry with me and didn't want to talk to me anymore, that's why you didn't respond."

"Why are you so stupid, when will I be willing to ignore you?" Wen Xiaoyu wiped away his tears and asked sadly, "It's because of this that you decided to leave me?"

Wen Xiaoyu didn't believe that their relationship could not withstand such a simple misunderstanding, and it would appear that the connection between them was too weak.Sure enough, He Xiran shook his head, his eyes dimmed.

As if he had made up his mind, he took a deep breath and told Wen Xiaoyu everything——

On the night of He Xiran's mother's death, his grandmother hurriedly finished the funeral affairs and was about to take him out of Xuancheng immediately.But He Xiran must wait for Wen Xiaoyu to come back, and refuses to go with her.

But his grandmother told him that he suffered from hereditary schizophrenia, and sooner or later he would kill Wen Xiaoyu like his mother killed his father.

He Xiran was confused and scared at the time, remembering that he often couldn't control his emotions, lost his temper with Wen Xiaoyu for no reason, and even injured his face that day.

Coupled with his grandmother repeatedly mentioning the scene of his father's death, the heart disease healed over the years fell apart again, and he left Xuancheng with his grandmother in a daze.

When they woke up completely, they were already far away in a mental hospital in City Y.He Xiran did not have schizophrenia, but his PTSD came back again, accompanied by severe depression.

After more than four years of treatment, He Xiran's body was completely cured.Of course he wanted to come to Wen Xiaoyu immediately, but at that time, Wen Xiaoyu had already become a high-ranking "Guide Wen" in the entertainment industry, while he himself was an unknown person who had achieved nothing and had many "records".

Therefore, he did not take the initiative to find Wen Xiaoyu for a long time, and even felt that he was too humble and tried to avoid him.I just want to wait for myself to cheer up and be worthy of him, and then go to walk side by side.

……

Hearing his experiences spanning five years, Wen Xiaoyu's heart ached beyond measure.Even if He Xiran omitted all the treatment in the middle, he could still imagine how gloomy and difficult it was.

"Fool..." He hugged He Xiran tightly, tears could no longer be hidden, and fell from the corners of his eyes.

While he was working hard to find He Xiran, He Xiran also put in all his efforts to rush towards him, but he didn't know it.Compared with the suffering He Xiran experienced, what qualifications does he have to question why He Xiran left without hearing from him back then.

"Don't be like this, Wen Xiaoyu." He Xiran held his face, and said with the same tearful eyes, "I was afraid that you would think too much, that's why I didn't tell you. If I had known earlier, I would have let you know in this way today. It’s better to tell you the truth earlier.”

Wen Xiaoyu shook her head: "You should have told me earlier, no, I should have discovered five years ago, why am I so slow, and let you bear so much alone."

"Wen Xiaoyu, you are the fool." He Xiran said with a smile, "You are not a saint, don't take everything on yourself, don't you think I am standing in front of you now? Those are all over, We will be together happily in the future and will never be separated again."

That night, the only scar between the two of them was forcibly uncovered, revealing the bloody whole picture.The pain in it is self-evident, but the last estrangement that had lasted for five years also disappeared. The broken "circle" did not go in the opposite direction, and the two-way rush made them meet again.

The two of them are complete together, there is no gap, just like what He Xiran said, they will never be separated again.

The two hugged each other for a long time, and finally it was each other's body temperature that calmed them down.

He Xiran called his agent.As a powerful and established brokerage company, "Weaving Dream" has already experienced various outrageous revelations in the entertainment industry. The broker said that they have properly prepared a positive response plan and just waited for He Xiran to implement it in the past.

When the two of them packed their luggage and were about to leave, Wen Xiaoyu asked the last remaining question: "Where's your grandma?"

He Xiran paused for a moment, lowered his eyes slightly, and said in a cold voice: "She is not in good health, and she is still in the mental hospital in Y City. I thought she was locked in the basement to protect my mother. I didn’t know she was the sickest person in our family until she forcibly took me away. Her love for us was deformed and she was desperate to keep us in her hands.”

Wen Xiaoyu thought of Mrs. He's appearance, she seemed to be standing in the darkness forever, like a vicious snake, staring at everything around her, always ready to swallow all the good things into her belly.

He Xiran continued: "At the beginning, she strongly opposed my parents' marriage and forced my mother to get sick again and again. Even so, my father did not give up. Later, when my mother was gone, she realized that I would also leave because of you. She, that's why she wants to control me in the same way."

Speaking of this, he took Wen Xiaoyu's hand, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "But I escaped, and you have been holding me, I never thought of giving up."

***

At dawn, the two split into two groups at the airport in City B.He Xiran followed his agent back to the company to deal with the rumor-mongering incident, while Wen Xiaoyu was going to get back what belonged to them.

He started calling Bai An as soon as he walked out of the airport, but Bai An never answered, so he kept calling over and over again.He didn't forget that Bai An was a more patient person than him. Such a huge lie could deceive him for five years, which shows how deep Bai An's mind is.

Wen Xiaoyu thought, today, they must make a decision.

I don't know how many calls, Bai An's voice sounded over there, even with a hint of obvious joy: "Good morning! Wen Xiaoyu."

"Where are you?" Wen Xiaoyu asked calmly.

"Wen Xiaoyu, do you know how many phone calls you made just now?" Bai An asked inappropriately.

"I asked where are you?" Wen Xiaoyu's voice cooled down, and he asked repeatedly.

"You made 23 calls in total, do you know what this means?" Bai An said persistently.

Wen Xiaoyu pursed his lips tightly. He had an intuition that this number could not be a lucky number, so he looked out of the car window with deep eyes and did not speak.

Bai An chuckled, and said in a leisurely tone as if telling a funny story:

"Since you don't know, let me tell you. That night five years ago, He Xiran also called you 23 times. I turned off the mute and watched him call in again and again in the dark, and the screen lit up. It went out again. The light was so beautiful, it was on for a full 23 times, I was imagining He Xiran's mood at the time, and at the same time I watched you sleep. Until it completely went out, I deleted them one by one."

"Wen Xiaoyu, tell me...what was He Xiran's mood at that time?"

Bai An's voice was a bit ethereal, and it seemed so unreal when it came over the phone, but his description still uncontrollably converged in Wen Xiaoyu's mind, forming a virtual silent scene——

On that rainy night, He Xiran faced illness and death, desperately trying to grasp his only life-saving straw.But Bai An, like watching a joke, cut off this connection with full of malice, and watched He Xiran step by step towards despair.

Thinking of this, a stabbing pain in his heart made Wen Xiaoyu unable to talk to Bai An calmly. He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "I asked where are you?!"

"Don't worry, Wen Xiaoyu, I want to chat with you for a while longer." Bai An said coquettishly.
