Yueshan Community

Yu Yao sat quietly in front of the dressing table, as if her soul had been taken away, staring at the haggard face in the mirror with empty eyes.

The swollen eye bags were like two flesh-colored buns; the beautiful eyes that were originally lively were now full of bright red bloodshot; and there were even traces of tears on the pale cheeks.

Time seemed to have stopped, she just sat there blankly, motionless, and didn't know how much time had passed.

Finally, Yu Yao seemed to wake up from a long nightmare, slowly reached out her hand, and picked up the mobile phone on the table.

With trembling fingers, she pressed the call button, and soon a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello? Who is this?"

"Manager, this is Yu Yao, sorry to bother you. Something urgent happened at home, and I would like to ask you for two days off... Thank you very much, manager!"

After hanging up the phone, Yu Yao threw the phone aside casually, her body softened, and she slumped in front of the dressing table again, her thoughts drifting to an unknown distance again.

Just then, a rapid knock on the door broke the silence in the room.

"Bang, bang, bang--" The sound echoed in the empty room, hitting Yu Yao's fragile heartstrings again and again.

She came back to her senses as if she had just woken up from a dream, and she pulled herself together, dragging her legs that seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and moved step by step to the iron gate.

When the door slowly opened, Niu Wu, who was standing outside the door, was stunned for a moment.

Yu Yao in front of him had a pale face like paper, and her hair was messy and scattered on her shoulders. The former spirited spirit had long disappeared.

"Yao'er, you, how did you become like this?"

Niu Wu's heart trembled suddenly. The last time he saw Yu Yao so lost was when that man died.

Hearing Niu Wu's concerned inquiry, Yu Yao just shook her head lightly, forced a smile at the corner of her mouth, and said softly.

"Nothing, just didn't get enough rest last night. Brother Niu, is there something wrong with coming to me so early?"

However, her hoarse voice sounded so distressing, as if she had to use all her strength to say every word.

Niu Wu, who had known Yu Yao for many years, how could he not feel how sad the other party was? He originally wanted to ask what happened after getting drunk last night, but he held back.

"There is a new Hu La Tang restaurant across the community. Don't you love Hu La Tang the most? Let's go together."

Originally, Yu Yao wanted to refuse, because yesterday was too much of a blow to her. Now she just wanted to have a good rest, forget everything, and return to normal life.

But she suddenly thought of something and quickly changed her mind.

"Then Brother Niu, wait for me for a while. I'll change my clothes."

"Okay."

After more than ten minutes, Yu Yao appeared in front of Niu Wu with a different face.

Although her face was still a little pale and her eye bags were still a little swollen, she looked much better than before.

"Let's go."

"Yeah"

"By the way, Yao'er, let's go around after breakfast. The park in the neighborhood next door has been built. There are many..."

...

Outside the Xia family mansion, inside the Tank 3000.

"Actually, I can do it alone." Xia Yuwei looked at Lin Bai with a complicated look.

"What? Sister Yuwei, don't you want to be responsible for me?" Lin Bai couldn't help but tease.

Xia Yuwei couldn't help but said coquettishly, "You, how can you be so outspoken."

"So Sister Yuwei, do you regret it now?"

"Will it be useful for me to regret it?"

"What do you think!"

"Then why are you talking nonsense."

...

After flirting in the car for a few minutes, the two came hand in hand to the gate of the Xia family's mansion.

Xia Yuwei naturally wanted to refuse to hold hands.

Not only because this was her home, but more importantly, because she had never been so intimate with a man in front of others, even her fiancé.

But Lin Bai's attitude was particularly tough, and she could only press the doorbell with shame.

After a while, a maid appeared in front of the two and bowed deeply at 90 degrees.

"Miss, you are back."

Xia Yuwei was no longer surprised by this.

"Is father back?"

"The master has returned and is in the study now."

Before she finished speaking, Xia Yuwei led Lin Bai in.

She was shocked until the two disappeared in front of the little maid.

The Xia family mansion was bigger than expected. The two walked for nearly 10 minutes before they came to a door.

"Have you really thought it through? If you leave now, I can pretend that nothing happened." Xia Yuwei looked back at Lin Bai, who was holding her fingers tightly.

Lin Bai smiled lightly, "I don't want to regret it for the rest of my life."

"Aren't you afraid that you will regret being with me? "

"Who knows what will happen in the future, but I don't think I will regret it." As he said this, Lin Bai held Xia Yuwei's hand a little harder.

Feeling Lin Bai's determination, Xia Yuwei's eyes became firm.

She took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

"Knock, knock."

Soon, a low and serious voice came from inside.

"Come in, the door is not locked."

...

On the other side, in the crowded Chaoyang Park

Niu Wu walked in front enthusiastically, greeting the uncles and aunts around from time to time.

Yu Yao followed Niu Wu carelessly, like a dull robot.

After walking for a long time, the two came to a pavilion.

"Yao'er, what do you think of this place?" Niu Wu stared at Yu Yao tenderly.

"Not bad. "Yu Yao gave a symbolic fake smile.

"If you like, then when you have nothing to do in the future, let's come here to exercise together. The scenery here is also very good, and it's also nice to come here to relax. Yao'er, what do you think?" Niu Wu said softly.

"Brother Niu, I still have to go to work, and I may not have so much time." Yu Yao frowned slightly.

"It's okay, then you can come when you are free, Yao'er, anyway, the distance is not far."

Yu Yao stared at Niu Wu in a daze, and after a long silence, she suddenly spoke.

"Brother Niu, I'm not feeling well, I'm going back first."

After saying that, without waiting for Niu Wu to speak, Yu Yao got up and left here, leaving Niu Wu sitting there in a daze.

Yu Yao knew that Niu Wu cared about her, but she was really in a mess now, and really couldn't think about other things. She urgently needed to be quiet.
