Chapter 167 Chen Tai Finds Li Ruochu
A trace of dejection instantly emerged on Chu Yanzhen's face, and it was as if all his energy and spirit had been drained away in an instant.
He lowered his head slightly, looking at the ground with a somewhat empty gaze, as if he was talking to himself, or as if he was confiding in Li Ruochu: "If I had known it would be like this, I should have pursued you with all my might."
Looking back on the past, Chu Yanzhen originally thought that she should give Li Ruochu some more time so that she could slowly forget the pain brought by Shen Yubai.
At that time, he always kept his distance carefully, thinking that he would pursue Li Ruochu after she had completely gotten over that relationship.
But he never expected that when he was hesitating and wandering, Feng Yizhou was like a dark horse, taking the lead and walking into Li Ruchu's heart.
At this moment, Chu Yanzhen was full of regret. He couldn't help but think self-deprecatingly, wasn't he just cowardly and incompetent at the beginning?
If I had mustered up the courage to pursue Li Ruchu earlier, perhaps I would be the person standing next to her now.
His eyes revealed a deep regret, and that regret was like an invisible net that bound him tightly.
Li Ruochu looked at Chu Yanzhen, with a complicated look in his eyes.
She shook her head gently, and said in a soft but firm voice: "Boss Chu, even if you pursued me at the beginning, I might not agree to you."
In Li Ruochu's heart, Feng Yizhou is a man completely different from other men.
On the surface, he always appears to be sharp-tongued and speaks mercilessly, but in fact, he will inadvertently observe her subtle emotional changes.
Whenever she fell into depression because of the pain of her last relationship, Feng Yizhou would always use a seemingly unique but actually warm way to guide her to slowly walk out of the haze and forget the pain.
Every look and every word of Feng Yizhou was like a key, slowly opening the door of her heart.
His existence is like a ray of light in the darkness, illuminating her world. He is the most irreplaceable existence in this world.
"It seems that I have really lost completely!" The corners of Chu Yanzhen's mouth twitched slightly, and he forced out a bitter smile, which was uglier than crying.
Originally he was full of expectations, thinking that now that Feng Yizhou was gone, he would finally have the chance to be with Li Ruchu.
But now, Li Ruochu's firm attitude made him realize that his idea was too naive.
The fantasy in his heart was like a bubble, shattered in an instant by the reality.
"I'm sorry to bother you, but you must be careful when you go out and don't get hurt there!"
Chu Yanzhen slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm the turbulent emotions in his heart.
When he opened his eyes again, his face was full of helplessness, and there was a hint of loneliness in that helplessness, as if his soul had been taken away from him.
"Ruochu, I hope you can find Feng Yizhou as soon as possible." After saying that, Chu Yanzhen did not stay any longer. He slowly turned around and walked towards the door with heavy steps.
Every step he took was like dragging a heavy burden, and his back looked extremely lonely.
The moment the door closed, a crystal tear slowly fell from Chu Yanzhen's eyes.
The tear slid down his cheek and dripped onto the ground, splashing tiny water droplets, as if shattering his last glimmer of hope.
At this moment, Chu Yanzhen finally gave up. He knew that he and Li Ruchu were not destined to be together.
To Li Ruchu, this matter was just a small episode and she quickly put it out of her mind.
Soon, a rhythmic knock on the door sounded in the quiet room.
It must be Jiang Mu who is here.
She walked quickly to the door, confirmed the person through the peephole, and gently opened the door.
"I just saw Mr. Chu coming. Is he here to see you?" Jiang Mu said as he walked into the house.
He naturally knew that Chu Yanzhen had always had special feelings for Li Ruchu.
When I saw Chu Yanzhen's distraught and extremely sad look just now, I guessed in my heart that he might have hit a wall and suffered a setback with Li Ruchu.
"Well! Are you ready?" Li Ruochu responded softly, his eyes flickering slightly, and then changed the subject unnoticeably.
She really didn't want to talk too much about Chu Yanzhen.
In her opinion, the two of them were just two parallel lines with no intersection at all. There was no need to force them to intertwine together and only add to their troubles.
"Everything is ready, but I came here this time because I want to find you for something."
As Jiang Mu spoke, his expression suddenly turned serious, and his eyes, which had originally been smiling, now became deep and solemn, as if shrouded in a layer of haze.
When Li Ruochu saw this, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. An inexplicable sense of tension surged in her heart. She frowned slightly and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Someone wants to see you!" Jiang Mu just finished speaking and stepped aside. Another figure slowly came to Jiang Mu's side.
"Uncle Chen?" Li Ruochu couldn't help but shout in surprise after seeing who it was.
Shouldn't Chen Tai have been in Country F? How come he suddenly appeared here?
Moreover, looking at the anxious look on this man's face, beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead, and his breathing became a little rapid.
Li Ruochu couldn't help but wonder if something unexpected happened in Country F?
"Ms. Li, there is no time to explain so much now," Chen Tai spoke very quickly, his tone revealing an unquestionable urgency, "I just want to ask you, are you going to Country F to look for Master Feng Yizhou this time!"
He stared at Li Ruochu closely, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Yes!" Li Ruochu responded firmly without any hesitation.
At this moment, her eyes were full of determination, as if going to Country F to find Feng Yizhou was her unswerving mission.
"Are you afraid of danger?" Chen Tai continued to ask, his eyes still fixed on Li Ruchu, as if he wanted to find the real answer from her eyes.
Li Ruochu shook his head without hesitation, with a fearless look in his eyes, "If I were afraid, I would have stayed here. Uncle Chen, you came here in such a hurry, did something happen to Feng Yizhou?"
Her voice trembled slightly as she asked cautiously, the worry in her heart spreading like a tide, almost drowning her.
Chen Tai shook his head gently, a trace of helplessness and fatigue on his face, "This matter is very complicated. Now even I don't know where Feng Yizhou is now. I came back this time to deal with some things for him, so I can't go with you!"
He sighed slightly, his eyes full of worry, as if those complicated things had exhausted him.
Something unexpected happened in Country F and many people wanted to rebel.
This time, Feng Yizhou needs to go back and take charge of the situation.
However, what is different this time from before is that this time it requires the joint support of Feng Yizhou and Zhong Tingyan.
If an accident happens, both lives will be in danger!
