Cheng Zichu looked at the documents on his desk. After a little thinking, he closed his laptop and got up and went out of his study.

Standing on the balcony, Xu Yanran heard the sound of the door behind her and turned to see Cheng Zichu come out. She was surprised, but she didn't show it. She just took a cold look and was still allowed to turn around and look at the dark sky.

Cheng Zichu didn't speak either. Just like Xu Yanran, he stood by the railing and supported the railing with both hands.

"Why did you come out? You don't have to deal with any documents?"

Xu Yanran turned her head to see Cheng Zichu. She thought Cheng Zichu wouldn't come out. After all, the relationship between them is unclear.

"Yes."

Cheng Zichu just gave a simple, um, without too much explanation. In fact, even he didn't know why he came out. Maybe the scene tonight was too familiar. He was used to it.

Four years ago, at every new year's Eve, Cheng Zichu was always busy with business. Xu Yanran wouldn't pester him unreasonable. They were so busy with their own affairs.

Xu Yanran never asks for anything. She knows very well that at 11:30, whether Cheng Zichu is busy or not, he will put down his work and come out to see fireworks with Xu Yanran to welcome the new year.

They always hug and kiss sweetly. The fireworks in the positive sky seem to bloom for them, forming the brightest background in the dark night.

But now they are standing on the balcony. Xu Yanran feels that it is as hard as years. Time seems to go very slowly. The silence between them seems to enlarge the darkness of the night and make the fireworks of the new year come much later.

"How did you come back?"

After hesitating for a long time, Cheng Zichu turned and leaned against the railing, looking at Xu Yanran.

Xu Yanran didn't expect that Cheng Zi would suddenly ask questions. She stared slightly. Then she turned her head with a smile and said, "some things can't be dragged all the time. Sooner or later, there will be an explanation."

Cheng Zichu didn't quite understand what Xu Yanran meant, but he could hear that it meant something else. He could only guess what made her come back for four years.

"You don't think I'm just trying to mess up your wedding?"

Xu Yanran looked at Cheng Zichu frowning and thinking, and felt a little funny, although this was indeed one of the purposes of her return.

"Isn't it?"

Cheng Zichu asked, staring straight at Xu Yanran, as if to have an insight into the secrets of people's hearts.

Xu Yanran was stunned, but she didn't avoid Cheng Zichu's hot eyes. Instead, she looked at him calmly, smiled and nodded to admit it.

"So what? It's just to come back and plug in. I have more important things to do."

Xu Yanran's unabashed attitude was unexpected to Cheng Zichu. In his impression, Xu Yanran has never been a person who will haggle over every detail and retaliate against others.

"You can admit such a dirty thing."

Xu Yanran was not excited by Cheng Zichu's sarcasm, but looked at him with contempt on her face.

"Dirty? I'm just an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Where can I go? You start to love Lin bao'er?"

Cheng Zichu looked at Xu Yanran, who looked almost the same as she did four years ago, and suddenly felt that she had changed a lot. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether this was the real her or she had changed so much in the past four years, but no matter what kind of result, Cheng Zichu couldn't let himself abandon her.

"Why? With a disappointed look on your face, you think I can't compare with Lin Baoer. What's the kindness, consideration and understanding?"

Xu Yanran smiled brightly, as if she didn't care how Cheng Zichu looked at herself, but only her own heart knew how painful each look Cheng Zichu hated was in her heart.

"What you did wrong is now blamed on others?"

Cheng Zichu said coldly. What appeared in front of him was the unbearable scene he had encountered in the past four years. She also proposed divorce. He fulfilled her wish, but looked at her to explain the misunderstanding, like a joke.

"I don't blame others. If I blame myself, I blame myself for being too stupid and naive. I've been fooled around, but I'm still delusional to explain all this. So I won't let others play with me anymore, but I won't let go of the past, and the price I should pay can't be less!"

The hatred in Xu Yanran's eyes surprised Cheng Zichu. He repeatedly doubted the truth of the matter in that year, but no matter how the investigation results were the same as those in that year, he was also mixed with it and was bored.

Now, Xu Yanran no longer hopes that Cheng Zichu can believe her words. She knows what the truth is. She smiled sarcastically and turned away.

"Don't you explain?"

Cheng Zichu looked at Xu Yanran and turned around. Heping often talked about it with an excited look.

"You can think what you like. Anyway, you are always more willing to believe in yourself than me, aren't you?"

Xu Yanran tilted her head and smiled helplessly. She never explained. It's just that there is a difference between once and 10000 times, but they are the same result.

"I can let go of what happened before."

Cheng Zichu forked his pocket and said what he thought. He underestimated himself. Even though he knew that she had betrayed himself, he was still stunned and generally wanted to be with her.

Xu Yanran heard it, but smiled more presumptuously, "Cheng Zichu, can you put it down?"

Cheng Zichu was silent. Xu Yanran sneered. He no longer waited for the new year's fireworks. He opened the door and was ready to enter the house. However, Cheng Zichu grabbed his wrist and pulled back. The whole portrait fell back.

"If I can put it down, can we go back to the past?"

Cheng Zichu hugged Xu Yanran, closed his eyes, and his face was tired, as if this sentence had exhausted all his strength.

Xu Yanran burst into tears for a moment. She also wanted to go back to the past with Cheng Zichu regardless. But later, he had a knot in his heart and would care about his distrust. Moreover, in Lin Baoer's words, Cheng Zichu also had a share in Xu Qingzhu's death.

"Can green bamboo survive?"

Cheng Zichu didn't expect that Xu Yanran didn't struggle or resist, but such a sentence came out coldly. He let go of Xu Yanran and looked at her in some confusion.

Xu Yanran looked at him with a cold face and repeated, "can green bamboo live? If he can live, we can go back."

"Why are you crazy?" Cheng Zichu shouted. He knew how important Xu Qingzhu was to her, but he didn't understand what it had to do with them.

"Green bamboo can't get rid of your relationship with death. I don't know what deal you have with Lin bao'er, but it's ahead of us. We can't go back."

Xu Yanran opened Cheng Zichu's hand and turned back to the house. It was just twelve o'clock.
