Chapter 26
"Just because I did something wrong, you refused to give me a chance. Can't you forgive me? Yun Xi..." Lu Jinnian stubbornly refused to let go.His voice has taken on a somewhat hoarse color.

"Lu Jinnian." Mo Yunxi frowned slightly, feeling sore in his heart.She thought of the love she had been satisfied with, and the pain and coldness when she fell on the dirty concrete floor in the dilapidated factory building. "At the beginning, why... didn't you save me? I asked you for help, why didn't you come to save me? It's true that He Yinyin killed me, but my hope was annihilated bit by bit by you. Every time When I think about it, I have to think about it, if He Yinyin is the executioner, then you... are the one who sharpened that knife for her. Every time I think about it, I feel that I used to love you so much, it's like a joke .And every time I think about it, I know, I don't love you anymore."

Lu Jinnian's hand clasped Mo Yunxi's wrist, slowly loosened his grip, and finally let go completely.

Mo Yunxi closed his eyes deeply, and his shoulders trembled a little.She knew that she was crying, and she also knew that she was still very sad.However, as Mo Yunxi said, she couldn't restrain her resentment towards Lu Jinnian.

Almost without stopping, the moment Lu Jinnian let go of his hand, Mo Yunxi took a step forward, and when he stepped up two stone steps, Lu Jinnian's painful growl came from behind him, as if his heart and lungs were torn apart. "Yuanxi—"

Mo Yunxi's back stiffened.Then she looked down at her hands. "Lu Jinnian, Du Yunxi is dead. I'm just Mo Yunxi now." After a pause, she started walking again. "Goodbye, Brother Lu. Happy New Year."

Mo Yunxi left, and Lu Jinnian didn't look back.When Mo Yunxi got into her car, and the car slowly drove away from the neighborhood, Lu Jinnian suddenly kicked out the ingredients he had bought by his feet like crazy, and smashed the things in his hands frantically.Finally, he leaned his back against the wall of the balcony and slowly squatted down.Burying his face into his arms, he let out a hoarse and trembling cry. "Yunxi..."

The hall lights went out again.The night covered up all the scars of the New Year's Eve.Beautiful fireworks burst from the sky.

The beautiful and eye-catching brilliance and flower patterns, like so many past events, are constantly replaying in Lu Jinnian's mind, and he will not stop.

In the dark, a figure moved not far away.After a long while, the figure was in Lu Jinnian's utter embarrassment and cleaned up the mess. When she entered the building, she came out with a pale face and dull eyes.She swayed a bit, and fell down on the cold stone floor, sobbing softly.She just kept murmuring the same three words in her mouth.

"sorry Sorry……"

Mo Yunxi was a little distracted while driving.In fact, she didn't know what was going on, and as soon as her head got hot, she confessed to Lu Jinnian.

However, I can't say I regret it.After all, fire cannot be contained in paper.Lu Jinnian was already guessing.Afterwards, if any flaws are revealed, they will not be able to hide it from him.Why don't you take this opportunity and say it all while it's still beneficial to you.

But after this incident, Mo Yunxi didn't have the interest to hang out or watch fireworks.She drove back to her apartment without stopping.It's been a long time since I came back.I thought that maybe the things in the refrigerator at home could not be eaten.Mo Yunxi went to a convenience store to buy some simple ingredients.Fortunately, there are still people in this city who will not close their doors because of the Spring Festival.

Mo Yunxi parked the car, picked up his things and went upstairs.

But when he was at the door, Mo Yunxi found that the lights in his apartment were actually on.From the cat's eye on the anti-theft door, there is actually a faint warm light coming out.Mo Yunxi frowned, she went to check the door lock, and found that there was no trace of damage.

She didn't open the door and go in immediately, but listened at the door for a while.Because the sound insulation is so good, I can only vaguely hear the sound of people walking around.

Mo Yunxi hesitated, and when she was thinking about whether to call Xiao Chongyun, her cell phone rang suddenly.

Suddenly, Mo Yunxi's heart tightened.When he was about to turn around and go downstairs, the door opened.

"Why don't you open the door when you're back?" In the room, Shen Zhuoyan held the phone in one hand and kept pushing the door with the other, looking at Mo Yunxi in the room with a natural expression.

Mo Yunxi opened his eyes slightly. "I... didn't know you were at home." After a pause, she pursed her lower lip with an unnatural expression. "Why are you here?"

Seeing her in a daze, Shen Zhuoyan just hooked the corners of her lips.Then he reached out and took the bag from Mo Yunxi's hand. "I'm not here, who else? Who do you think broke in?"

"..." Mo Yunxi's mouth twitched, but he still didn't say anything.She went in and changed her shoes.

Just when I walked into the living room, I was attracted by the smell of rice.Mo Yunxi raised his head in surprise.She turned her eyes to the side, only to realize that there were six dishes and one soup on the table in the restaurant, and there were two plates of dumplings.Immediately, Mo Yunxi was a little stunned.

"Go wash your hands and eat."

Mo Yunxi was still in a daze until he entered the bathroom.Looking at her own face reflected in the mirror, she felt a little unreal.What was unbelievable was that she was actually ready to celebrate the New Year alone, but she didn't expect that Shen Zhuoyan would appear suddenly, not only that, but she even cooked a table of dishes?Mo Yunxi pursed his lips, not knowing how to face it.

She wiped off the water stains on her hands, and walked to the table a little dazed.Shen Zhuoyan had already filled a bowl of soup by her hand.When he drew his hand back, he accidentally rubbed against Mo Yunxi's.Then, in the next moment, he clasped Mo Yunxi's wrist with his backhand. "Yunxi, how long are you going to hide from me?"

Mo Yunxi opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.Then, when she frowned, Shen Zhuoyan leaned over and blocked her lips.His teeth bit Mo Yunxi's lips lightly.When she finally left, she exerted a little force, which made her feel some pain.

Then, Shen Zhuoyan raised his hand and touched the corners of her slightly red lips. "Don't hide from me anymore, okay? I was wrong, what can I do to forgive me?"

Mo Yunxi finally shook his head.Finally he sighed.Changed the subject. "Why are you here today?"

In fact, the reason why she did not continue this topic is very simple.Later, Mo Yunxi thought seriously that in Shen Zhuoyan's position, he was used to seeing these things.So I treat it with an indifferent attitude. In fact, it can't be all blamed on Shen Zhuoyan. It's because she didn't protect Xiaochi well... Whenever Mo Yunxi thinks of this, his heart aches.So this is actually the reason why she really avoided Shen Zhuoyan.Every time she saw Shen Zhuoyan, she couldn't let go of her mistakes, and thus became even more flustered and helpless.

Seeing her give away, Shen Zhuoyan couldn't help but feel a little relieved. "I don't worry about you being here by yourself. I know Director Yu gave you a holiday, so I want to come and celebrate the New Year with you." Having said this, Shen Zhuoyan frowned. "Speaking of which, where have you been? Why did you come back so late?" Before Mo Yunxi could answer, the gap between his brows deepened. "What's the trouble?"

Mo Yunxi shook his head. "I thought I'd be home by myself today... so I went to watch the fireworks."

Shen Zhuoyan's eyes fell on Mo Yunxi's face and paused for a moment.He didn't say anything, just moved the dumplings in front of Mo Yunxi. "Try it. Haven't done it in years, it's rusty."

Mo Yunxi nodded, picked up a dumpling, bit it down, and found it was shrimp.She looked up at Shen Zhuoyan in surprise. "Shrimp?"

"Yeah." Shen Zhuoyan responded and ate one himself. "Do you still like it?"

"I like it." Mo Yunxi swallowed half of the dumpling, staring at the red and white prawns inside the dumpling on the chopsticks, and said after a pause. "Can you go out with me later?"

Shen Zhuoyan was stunned. "where to?"

"I want to go and put a Kongming lantern for Xiao Chi." Mo Yunxi hesitated, but finally opened his mouth.

"Okay. I'll go with you." Shen Zhuoyan agreed without hesitation.

Hearing his answer like this, Mo Yunxi felt a little relieved.I put the remaining half of the shrimp dumpling into my mouth.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, the two of them rushed out before they had time to put away the bowls and chopsticks.In fact, Mo Yun bought the Kongming Lantern early in the morning, but he just didn't have a chance to put it on.It just so happens that today is New Year's Eve, and this wish can be fulfilled.

"Put on more, it's starting to snow outside." Shen Zhuoyan reminded, and glanced out the window.

Mo Yun used to wear a relatively thick down jacket, and at Shen Zhuoyan's request, he changed into a pair of flat snow boots.

At first, Mo Yunxi thought he was going to drive to the square, but they took another road.

After driving for about 10 minutes, he stopped the car outside a shop and said something to Mo Yunxi. "Wait for me here for a while." Then he got out of the car.Mo Yunxi saw a man coming out of the shop.Shen Zhuoyan seemed to be talking to him about something.After a while, I saw the man take out two boxes from the store, and put them in the compartment of Shen Zhuoyan's car.

Not long after, Shen Zhuoyan returned to the driver's seat. The moment he opened the door and sat in, there was air-conditioning pouring into the car, which made Mo Yunxi shiver inadvertently.

"Where are you going?" she asked, turning her head.

Shen Zhuoyan just glanced at her with soft eyes, but didn't speak.

When the car started up again, a thin layer of mist appeared on the windows.Shen Zhuoyan opened the car window, leaving a small gap.Gradually the fog subsided.

Slowly, the car drove away from the road and headed towards the path.This is driving in the direction of the suburbs outside the city.

Once out of the city, there is a road covered with snow for a while.There is not even a street lamp on the street, except for the road ahead illuminated by the headlights, there is no other light.At this time, the snow had already fallen a little, and the surroundings became very quiet. In the quiet carriage, Mo Yunxi could almost hear Shen Zhuoyan's breathing.When the tires of the car are crushed on the snow, the sound of "creaking and creaking" is heard for a long time, which makes people tremble a little.

Pressing the phone, looking at the time on the screen, Mo Yunxi asked again. "Where are we going?"

This time, Shen Zhuoyan didn't hold back any more, he raised his chin towards the front. "Go to a quiet place and put a Kongming lantern for An Chi."

The car kept going and never stopped.It was not until half an hour later that Shen Zhuoyan slowly stopped the car and turned off the lights.Only then did Mo Yunxi see clearly that in front of them was a not-so-high hill.

"Do you want to climb up?" Mo Yunxi raised his head and looked at the hill in front of him. It was covered with a lot of snow, and it might be difficult to climb up.

Shen Zhuoyan shook his head, and took out the Kongming lantern in the rear compartment. "It's open enough here. No need to climb."

Listening to his words, Mo Yunxi slowly closed his eyes, only the soft sound of the wind and the sound of Xueluo could be heard, it was very quiet.And I am in a quiet white world.Her eyelashes moved and she murmured. "it's beautiful……"

"You know it's beautiful here without opening your eyes?" Shen Zhuoyan had already taken the Kongming lantern and came to Mo Yunxi, looking at her and asked.

"En." Mo Yunxi felt his approach, and then opened his eyes to look at him. "Some scenery does not need to be seen with the eyes, but only needs to be felt with the heart."
