Chapter 397 Vague Expectations

He had never been so clean.

Ever since he and Su Xiaoli spent the rest of their lives in the sea together, they have never seen each other again.

He wanted to ask, but he didn't have the guts to ask because no one in his family had ever brought it up.

Ling Yicheng also went back to Xiaoli's home to check, but found the door locked.

He opened the door with the key and waited in the room Xiaoli left for him for two whole days and two nights, but no one came back.

In desperation, Ling Yicheng had to return to the Gu family.

Logically speaking, as the future daughter-in-law of the Gu family, Su Xiaoli should visit Lin Yaru and her husband often.

But for more than half a month, Xiao Li never came once, and even Gu Feihan was not there.

Without any news from Xiaoli, the future that once seemed bright to him suddenly became a little blurry.

Ling Yicheng remained calm and gradually adapted to his new life. He never left the Gu family, just hoping to meet Su Xiaoli one day.

Several years have passed, so these few days won’t make a difference.

Although I have no idea in my heart, I can only hope vaguely.

Of course, he was not idle at the Gu family. Although the import and export company that he had invested in with Xiaoli had closed down, he had saved a sum of money at that time.

That was regular cash, and he planned to reopen the import and export company.

Gu Feiyan happened to come home that day, and he asked his third aunt a few legal questions. Just as he left the living room, he suddenly remembered that he had something else to ask Gu Feiyan. When he turned back, he heard Aunt Zhou's soft voice.

"Tianyi came home yesterday and said he wanted to eat the nougat that Xiaoli had made."

Ling Yicheng was almost frozen for a moment, and stopped at the door without going in.

Gu Feiyan sneered and snorted, "Just ignore this greedy brat. Xiao Li is super busy at C Country T University now, so he doesn't have time to make nougat for him."

Ling Yicheng's heart was about to jump out of his chest.

There was a gleam of light in his eyes, but his hands and feet felt a little numb. He suppressed the violent beating of his heart and quickly returned to the room.

——Xiao Li is in Country C.

Ling Yicheng's blood was boiling as he finally got news from her.

C country, T university, did she go there to study or do research?

No matter what she was going to do, Ling Yicheng immediately decided not to wait any longer and to go find her.

I've waited for so long, and it seems like I can't wait any longer.

He left a letter for Lin Yaru, saying that he was going to learn how to do business and asked her great aunt not to worry as he was doing legitimate business.

Before leaving China, Ling Yicheng returned to Qingzhou.

Slowly walked through the place where he grew up as a child, the place where he was bullied when he grew up, and the place where he did bad things as an adult.

Say goodbye to your past self alone.

Said "goodbye" solemnly.

Then he left without hesitation.

A month later, Ling Yicheng appeared on the streets of Country C.

He has his own way.

This time, he used the name Lin Yicheng and applied for a formal business visa.

I remember that Xiao Li was worried about him at that time: "Your name is Lin Yicheng, so you can only do what Lin Yicheng does! Although Ling Yicheng is a nice name too."

He always remembered these words.

That’s why it took so long to finally arrive on the streets of Country C.

He stood at the door of T University of C Country and looked inside for a long time.

Will she suddenly appear?

Perhaps because he was homesick, he didn't dare to go any further when he arrived in Country C.

He did not ask his business partners in Country C to help look for her, nor did he hire a private detective.

Just like whether to deny the relationship at that time, Ling Yicheng was also struggling with what identity he should use to meet Xiao Li.

I just silently hope that God will allow me to see her from afar, and I will be satisfied.

However, as if God was testing his patience, even though he went to the gate of T University every day when he was free, Su Xiaoli did not show up.

Yes, Su Xiaoli is now busy with multiple tasks, and time is compressed to the point where it cannot be compressed any further. Once he enters the laboratory, he cannot get out, and he is often the last one to leave the laboratory late at night.

She did not go out through the main gate after leaving the laboratory. Before returning to Hong Kong Island, Lu Sinian instructed the driver to ensure her safety.

So even if the home was just a few steps away, the driver would park the car at the door of the laboratory, and drive Su Xiaoli home as soon as she came out. He would not take the main entrance, but the back door which was closer to home.

For nearly two months, the two of them didn't meet each other even once.

However, even the school guards knew that a handsome young man often appeared at the gate recently, as if he was waiting for someone, but he never waited for anyone.

As autumn rains fell one after another, the green leaves on both sides of the campus roads gradually turned yellow.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The maple leaves in Su Xiaoli's yard gradually turned from green to red.

Ling Yicheng's company in Country C is also on the right track.

It was raining again that day and the temperature dropped sharply. He finished dealing with the few orders on hand, put on his windbreaker, and took the tram to T University again.

This is a habit he has developed in the past two months.

For some reason today, he didn't wait at the main entrance.

The scenery in the rain in the evening was nice and the air was fresh. He walked around T University with an umbrella in the rain.

After walking for an unknown amount of time or where he was, Ling Yicheng suddenly stopped.

The sound of two girls talking came into my ears through the rain.

"I told you last time to suspend land acquisition..."

"I told you, my dad scolded me, but I didn't listen at all! Oh! I told the driver to pick us up, it's raining so hard!" The girl, who was a little coquettish and arrogant, seemed to be complaining.

"Okay, just hide for a while, it will stop in a while." A soft voice seemed not to be bothered by the land, but changed the subject, "It's raining, I don't know if I can go to see the maple leaves tomorrow?"

This voice?! Ling Yicheng's heart tightened.

Although the two girls spoke C Mandarin, is there anyone else in the world whose voice is so sweet and familiar?

He looked up.

I saw two figures, wet from the rain, under a tree not far ahead. One of them was...

He missed the person for nearly a thousand days and nights.

His heartbeat, like a drum, stopped for a moment, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

The hand holding the umbrella handle slowly tightened, and his expression became a little stiff.

Su Xiaoli, who was hiding from the rain, just raised her head and was stunned for a moment, her eyes wide open, as if she couldn't believe it either.

The man in the white shirt...

She didn't even dare to blink.

The two of them seemed to have suddenly pressed the pause button, and both felt a trance and unreality.

Xiangli noticed that Su Xiaoli was different and had turned into a Li-jiang that she didn't recognize.

She glanced at Su Xiaoli, then at Ling Yicheng, "Li-chan, Li-chan! Who is this person?"

"He is... he is a family member." Su Xiaoli did not move her eyes, fearing that Ling Yicheng would disappear from her sight.

Xiangli looked carefully at the man in front of her.

He had an unruly aura and an appearance that could charm everyone, but at this moment his features were unexpectedly gentle.
