Chapter 122: The Obsession with the Forbidden Zone Rules is Too Deep
-
Wen Yining bought a plane ticket and went back home before he returned that night.
I didn't tell anyone, because I didn't know how to say goodbye or what to say.
People come and go in this world, and not everything has a conclusion.
I took a nap on the plane and had a lot of chaotic dreams. To be honest, I'm still very grateful to Shen Yueze for taking care of me during this time.
After getting off the plane, I received two missed calls on my phone.
She took a deep breath, looked at the traffic, didn't reply, and didn't continue the call, as if she already understood what she meant.
Back at his place, he only edited one message for Gu Yucheng.
The person on the other end seemed a little surprised. "Why didn't you tell me you were leaving? You didn't even take the things I gave you; Auntie said they're all in the closet. Ningning, did something happen between you and Shen Yueze again? I was hoping to visit you more often."
Wen Yining actually didn't want to have any contact with his family anymore, otherwise she would inevitably run into him, so she said, "I guess I won't see him again."
【Then take good care of yourself, and let me know anytime you have time.】
As for those bags and clothes, they were too valuable, so Wen Yining felt it was inappropriate to take them with her after only a few days.
-
Several months have passed in the blink of an eye.
I'm so busy every day that I don't have time to think about the grudges and entanglements I've experienced in the past.
Whenever he had resources, Cheng Yuzhou would contact her, but usually it was just for minor roles with a few lines. Occasionally, he would encounter men who proposed unspoken rules, and he had no shortage of suitors, but there were also many scammers among them, making it difficult to distinguish them, so he simply didn't believe them.
Everyone around her wanted her to find another boyfriend, assuming she had already moved on. She appeared calm and collected, and even when she heard Shen Yueze's name, she didn't react. Whenever this happened, she would remain silent, pretending not to hear him.
As the Lunar New Year approached, the temperature plummeted and a light snow fell. Looking at the snow-covered ground, she pulled her scarf tighter, sniffed, and suddenly felt a sense of disorientation, realizing that so much time had passed.
I haven't seen him for almost half a year.
She didn't delete the photos on her phone, nor did she throw away the gifts he gave her, but she never inquired about his situation again.
She knew nothing about his current situation, and of all her close friends, only Chen Jiabai was still in contact with her.
-
Her best friend Chen Mo invited her out for hot pot. When they arrived, Chen Mo couldn't help but ask, "It's been so long, you haven't gotten over it yet, have you?"
She chuckled softly. "I'm fine."
"Then why didn't you date someone else? How about this, you get back together with Chen Jiabai. I'll call him out. He's still single. A few days ago at a dinner party, his relatives wanted to introduce him to someone, but he said no. He's focused on starting his business and doesn't have the mind to contact other girls. You two are really a good match."
Chen Mo sighed.
Wen Yining stopped her from taking the phone and absentmindedly refused, "Forget it, I'll be friends with him at most. I don't have that feeling anymore, there's no spark."
It's not that Chen Jiabai is bad, but that there's no way to give her the experience of losing control.
"Okay then, just let me know when you're ready to find someone, and I'll introduce you to some," Chen Mo said enthusiastically.
With the Lunar New Year approaching, her older brother asked her to move back to her rented apartment. He and his wife had broken up but never got married, so the apartment became vacant.
They even found her a job as a medical aesthetics intermediary, not wanting her to continue in the entertainment industry, where she wouldn't earn much money and it was a job that relied on her youth.
After leaving the hot pot restaurant, she went to her rented apartment to pack her luggage, planning to take some of it back with her.
During holidays, I still prefer to be with my family, otherwise it's too lonely. I can't spend the New Year alone in a rented room without any sense of happiness.
After packing my luggage, I fell asleep and was woken up by my phone ringing at midnight.
Wen Yining wasn't sound asleep and was almost startled awake. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw her name displayed on the screen.
Shen Yueze.
Nearly half a year later, this was the first phone call he made.
All partings are without saying goodbye.
You don't even need to delete their contact information; you know they'll never contact you again.
Without hesitation, she answered the call almost instinctively.
A familiar voice came from across the street, "Come downstairs."
Low, indifferent, and somewhat hoarse.
Her throat was also hoarse, and she asked uncertainly, "Where are you now...?"
"Downstairs from your house."
She crawled out of bed and went barefoot to the living room balcony. A black Mercedes-Benz G-Class was parked below; he owned that car, it was his…
The surroundings were dark, and the streetlights in the old neighborhood had never been repaired. In the snow, the car's headlights were particularly glaring.
She casually threw on a down jacket and went downstairs in a daze. She hadn't turned off her phone, but neither of them said a word on the line.
When I saw the other person, I couldn't tell if it was a dream.
He was wearing a black trench coat, with the shirt buttons undone, his face expressionless, but his appearance hadn't changed; he was still very handsome, and he reeked of alcohol.
She asked, "Are you drunk?"
He didn't say anything, but kissed her for a while in front of the car.
Wen Yining's zipper wasn't zipped up properly, revealing a thin nightgown underneath, letting in the cold air.
The cold in the North is very different; it's a dry cold with a chilling, desolate feel that's unforgettable.
The temperature was close to zero in the early morning, but she seemed not to feel the cold. She let him kiss her for a while, and when her eyes stung, she touched them and tears streamed down her face.
He asked, "How have you been lately?"
"not good."
She said.
Why haven't you found a boyfriend?
She didn't reply, burying her face in his neck, her tears smearing on the collar of his trench coat. Her voice was muffled, "When you're sober, do you not come to find me?"
"Men outside are all unreliable, don't just date anyone. The one my dad introduced is better."
He said in a low voice.
"..."
She assumed he didn't know.
"I can't keep you or I can't let you go."
However, they eventually let her go back.
They probably knew what would happen if they stayed overnight together, so they never went upstairs.
Wen Yining drifted off to sleep amidst salty tears. When she woke up, her heart ached and her breathing became labored.
Yet no trace was left behind; if her eyes hadn't been a little swollen, she would have even suspected she was dreaming.
Yesterday he said he'd give her a large apartment, but that was probably just something he said while drunk, since he knew she wouldn't contact him again.
You shouldn't be too obsessed with people who only appear briefly.
I got up with a numb expression, ate breakfast, changed clothes, put on makeup, and went to work.
With the Spring Festival approaching, quite a few girls are getting cosmetic procedures done, as they're all on holiday.
Her colleague noticed she wasn't looking well and asked in surprise, "Ningning, what happened? Why are your eyes swollen?"
She replied dismissively, "Maybe I just didn't sleep well."
I tried to cover it up with makeup this morning, but it's still noticeable.
During lunch break, I received a call from an unknown number. It was someone close to Shen Yueze, saying that they wanted to transfer a property in Panhai Shijia to her and asked her to handle the formalities.
Oceanwide's apartments are among the most expensive large-sized apartments in Beijing, with no unit costing less than 60 million yuan.

A note from the author:
They'll get married in the next chapter, but I'll just mention it briefly.
There's no misunderstanding that needs explaining; it's all due to personality differences. It wasn't a misunderstanding from beginning to end.
I feel like it could be finished in two or three more chapters after the marriage.
Similar to my column "Rainy Weather"—a completed work.
Possessive young master
Later, it was he who fell in love to the point of losing his mind.
He would become so jealous and possessive that he would be consumed by a mad desire to possess her, even if she just said a word to someone else.
He seemed to have a dual personality; he was easygoing and easy to talk to in front of outsiders, but only revealed his dark and lost side in front of her.
Stubborn and unrestrained, indulging in madness.
The time when Jing Xiamo most wanted to leave, Zuo Ran pulled her onto his lap and showed her a video.
His expression was cold and gloomy. "If you don't love me, this is what will happen to you, understand?"
That evening, he regretted it.
He looked at her with ambiguous and morbid eyes, coaxing her, while simultaneously choking her neck and kissing her.
