In the evening.
Shi Heng suggested going to the restaurant downstairs for dinner.
In the private room of Yunding Restaurant, Su Niannian found that Shi Heng was still absent-minded.
"You're really weird today."
She picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in Shi Heng's bowl. "Is there something on your mind?"
Shi Heng shook his head. "It's really nothing. Maybe... I've hit a bottleneck in my novel writing recently."
"I see."
Su Niannian nodded in understanding. "All writers encounter this kind of situation. Would you like to hear some advice from a reader like me?"
Shi Heng finally revealed a genuine smile, "Okay, go ahead."
In this way, the two chatted about the plot of the novel and had a long meal.
Shi Heng was silent on the way to drive Su Niannian back to the clinic.
When they parted at the door of the clinic, Su Niannian suddenly grabbed his sleeve.
"If you have any troubles, you can tell me. Although I may not be able to help, I can at least be a listener."
Shi Heng looked at her concerned eyes and his throat suddenly tightened.
He hugged her gently and said, "Thank you, Nian Nian. See you tomorrow."
Watching Su Niannian walk into the clinic, he sat in the car for half an hour before leaving.
Shi Heng returned to the study in the penthouse apartment at Emerald Bay.
I turned on the computer and entered my mailbox, which contained a file sent by Chen Mingyuan last night.
Click it and an encryption interface will pop up.
After entering the password, the icon of the "Memory Reawakening Program" will immediately pop up on the screen, along with a detailed experimental report and data description.
In five years, the laboratory research in Shanghai has progressed rapidly.
According to current technology, if Su Niannian is willing, the laboratory's success rate in awakening her memory can reach over 86%.
Shi Heng looked at the computer interface quietly, hesitating.
What should I do?
Suddenly, the words Su Niannian said this afternoon echoed in his mind.
He closed his eyes, and countless images appeared before his eyes:
The look of Su Niannian carefully taking the patient's pulse in the clinic; the laughter of her and the twins chasing and playing in the yard; her profile as she sat under the lamp and read his novel seriously.
With a "ding" sound, the cell phone suddenly rang.
This is a message from Su Niannian:
[Are you home yet? Thank you for taking me to that beautiful place today. By the way, will you update your novel today? I'm looking forward to it.]
Shi Heng's eyes suddenly became moist when he saw the message.
He replied tremblingly:
[I'm home. I'll update today, and... it'll be a special update.]
Putting down his phone, Shi Heng finally made up his mind.
He clicked on the file with his mouse, selected "Delete," and then emptied the Recycle Bin.
After doing all this, he picked up his phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, Professor Chen."
Shi Heng's voice was unusually calm. "Regarding Gu Youran's memory awakening project... I've decided to terminate it."
A surprised voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Shi, are you sure? We have been doing research for five years and we are about to succeed!"
"I'm sure."
Shi Heng said firmly, "All information is sealed, and all experimental data is encrypted. This project... ends here."
Hang up the phone.
He breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge stone that had been weighing on his heart for years had been lifted off his chest.
I walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the starry sky reflected on the river.
He whispered, "Let it be...let her continue to be happy Su Niannian."
Turned back and sat down at the desk.
Shi Heng opened the document and began typing frantically.
The words on the screen gushed out like a spring, and he wanted to pour all his emotions into this final chapter.
Four hours later, when the clock struck one in the morning, he finally typed the last period.
He rubbed his sore wrist and published five chapters totaling more than 10,000 words at once.
This is the first time he has updated like this in the two years since he started writing.
In the author's comment section, he wrote:
Thank you all for your support over the past two years. "The Star Never Leaves" officially concludes today. I hope the hero and heroine can find eternal happiness in this story.
After posting the last chapter, Shi Heng leaned back in his chair, feeling more relaxed than ever before.
He picked up his phone and sent a message to Su Niannian:
[The novel is finished. Tomorrow...can I treat you to breakfast?]
Soon, the phone lights up:
[Of course. Congratulations on finishing it! But... you're not going to start a new one, are you?]
Shi Heng looked at the message and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Replied:
[No, I need to take a break.]
In fact, what he really wanted to say was, I just want to marry you home right now.
After sending this message, Shi Heng walked to the balcony.
The night wind blew across his face, taking away the last bit of obsession.
From now on, he will truly embrace a new life.
…
Seven o'clock in the morning.
Su Niannian just woke up when she heard the sound of her cell phone dinging.
I picked up my phone and saw the message from Shi Heng:
[Are you up yet? I'll be waiting for you in the backyard.]
She changed her clothes and went to the backyard.
When you open the door, the originally dilapidated backyard looks brand new.
The bluestone path was lined with her favorite gentian flowers, and in the corner was a newly built small fish pond with a few goldfish swimming under the water lilies.
What surprised her most was that the color of the bricks and tiles of the courtyard wall and the patterns of the windows were exactly the same as those of her home.
"Do you like it?"
Shi Heng walked out from the pavilion next to him, holding a cup of steaming soy milk in his hand.
Su Niannian took the soy milk, and the warmth spread from her fingertips to her heart. "When did you make all this? You even repaired the fish pond..."
