Qiao Tianrui had a faint smile on his lips as he looked at Zhou Ziheng and jokingly said, "Heng, I never thought that a straight man like you, the reincarnation of a tyrant king, could find such a lively and lovely girlfriend."
Zhou Ziheng's expression suddenly became a little subtle. After a long silence, he gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"
Wen Wan covered her mouth and couldn't help laughing. This statement really deserved a beating!
"You're such a handsome guy, how come you have a mouth?" she teased with a smile.
Qiao Tianrui didn't get angry at all when he heard this. Instead, he smiled and said, "How come such a beautiful lady has a mouth?"
"You are so funny!" Wen Wan's eyes were a little surprised, but she quickly adjusted herself and couldn't help but sigh.
Qiao Tianrui said unyieldingly, "You too."
Wen Wan did not continue to answer this time, but just lowered her head and smiled softly. She now finally understood why Zhou Ziheng said that they were somewhat similar. Hidden under their beautiful appearance was the same stupid heart!
When a fool meets a fool, it's like family meeting family, and the distance between them is instantly shortened.
Qiao Tianrui had been in the vase for so long without seeing the sun that he could no longer tell the time. He asked in confusion, "What time is it now? How long has it been since I died?"
"It's 2022 now, and it's been more than four years since then." Zhou Ziheng replied softly.
He looked at the person in front of him with complicated eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Ah~ So much time has passed!" Qiao Tianrui looked up and sighed with sudden realization.
Then he continued, "So... Ah Heng saw the things I left behind and followed the clues to find this place, right?"
"That's right!" Before Zhou Ziheng could speak, Wen Wan answered first. She couldn't help but roll her eyes and said unhappily, "How dare you bring that up!"
"When you set questions, you only follow your own thinking, without considering whether others can understand them! You think too highly of my brother Zhou! If he didn't have a smart girlfriend like me, I don't think you would have waited another five years!"
Qiao Tianrui scratched his head a little embarrassedly. At that time, he was indeed only concerned with encrypting according to his own thinking, and had never considered that Zhou Ziheng's problem-solving ideas were essentially different from his.
He originally thought that Zhou Ziheng would be able to discover the clues quickly, but unexpectedly it took until four years. Wen Wan's words did make sense. Without her help, waiting for five years would probably be in vain.
It was indeed his fault for not thinking things through, but... the ending was good after all. God gave Zhou Ziheng a girlfriend like this, so he definitely didn't want this matter to be overshadowed, right?
He thought thankfully, a warm smile subconsciously curling up at the corner of his lips, and said nonchalantly, "No matter what the process is, as long as the ending is perfect, it's fine."
Zhou Ziheng listened to his words and lowered his head silently. When he raised his head again, his eyes were red. He opened his mouth several times and closed it again. Finally, he uttered three words with difficulty, "I'm sorry."
A trace of surprise flashed across Qiao Tianrui's face. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly and asked softly, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I should be the one saying this." He sighed helplessly and returned the three words to him. "I'm sorry, my leaving must have caused you a lot of trouble, right?"
He threw the question out, but didn't give Zhou Ziheng a chance to answer. He answered it himself, "Given your personality, you'll definitely blame yourself for a long time. I don't want to become your nightmare, but at the time... I had no choice."
After saying these words, he fell silent again. Zhou Ziheng also lowered his head silently, leaving Wen Wan alone, anxiously standing by. She frowned deeply, and tried to stop herself from speaking, as if she was thinking about something.
Finally, after a long while, he spoke, and in a gentle tone, he comforted the two of them: "Neither of you is wrong, and you have done nothing wrong to each other!"
"One regretted not receiving the friend's last call and always felt that he had harmed his friend, and thus felt guilty, while the other also felt guilty for causing trouble for his friend."
"But these are not what you think! If possible, who wouldn't want to live a good life? In the end, there is no other choice!"
"So... you two don't need to blame yourselves. If anyone is to be blamed for this, it's only the instigator of the illegal and disorderly conduct, that idiotic Fang Cheng!"
Zhou Ziheng and the other man looked at each other in silence. Although they appeared calm on the surface, Wen Wan knew clearly that their hearts must be in turmoil.
Wen Wan looked at this one and then turned her head to look at that one, but in the end she could only pout and shake her head without saying anything.
After a while of stalemate, Wen Wan felt really anxious. Finally, she sighed silently in her heart and moved her foot between the man and the ghost.
After she cast a spell on her hands, she raised her arms and placed her hands on their shoulders, then exerted force towards the middle. They immediately lost their balance and fell towards the middle.
Wen Wan shouted with a half-smile, "Stop trying to give me some 'silence is golden' trick and give me a hug!"
After hearing this, Zhou Ziheng and the others gave each other a big hug with a faint smile on their faces.
They hugged each other for a long time before separating. When they separated, they found that each other had tears in their eyes. After a long silence, they said in unison; "Thank you!"
Although Zhou Ziheng blamed himself for not discovering the clues earlier, he was still grateful to Qiao Tianrui for trusting him and wanting to give the clues to him first instead of someone else.
