The study room in Han Jingchen's villa.
The atmosphere was suffocatingly tense.
Jiang Yuan stood beside Han Jingchen with a tingling scalp.
Originally, Han Jingchen was concentrating on watching a video on his laptop, but as the video content became more in-depth, his expression gradually became gloomy.
With a loud "bang", the laptop fell off the table and the screen went black instantly.
Jiang Yuan wailed in his heart, that was his laptop!
But at this moment, as an assistant, he was more worried about Han Jingchen's mood.
"Gu Youran, you are so cruel..."
Han Jingchen stood up from his seat, his chest heaving violently, obviously trying to calm his inner anger.
The scene in the video where Gu Youran threw the diamond ring is still lingering in my mind.
Although the motorcyclist in the video was wearing a helmet, he recognized it as Gu Youran at first sight.
See, she was so decisive and threw away his engagement diamond ring without any hesitation.
I feel inexplicably irritable.
What is bothering him...
Thinking back to when he proposed to Gu Youran, she was overjoyed when she saw the diamond ring.
When he put the diamond ring on her ring finger, the sweetness and happiness on her face could not be faked.
That is a kind of joy that comes from the heart and a longing for a better life in the future.
However, just one day later, she threw away the diamond ring.
It’s so infuriating!
Han Jingchen seemed to have forgotten that he and Gu Youran had broken up.
"Where does Gu Youran live?"
"I don't know." Jiang Yuan looked at his boss with mixed emotions.
Just a few hours ago, the boss proposed to break up with Gu Youran, but in the blink of an eye, he was eager to know her address. What was going on?
Over the past three years, he has witnessed Gu Youran's meticulous care for Han Jingchen and her unwavering companionship.
He saw this deep affection and was touched in his heart.
In fact, he did not agree with his boss breaking up with Gu Youran, and he was even more dismissive of that woman Xia Ke.
In Jiang Yuan's eyes, Gu Youran was like a shining pearl, while Xia Ke was just an inconspicuous piece of elm wood and could not be compared with her at all.
Unexpectedly, the boss gave up the pearls and picked up the elm wood. It is really puzzling.
As a subordinate, he shouldn't interfere too much in his boss's personal feelings.
He could only stand by silently and watch his boss endure the emotional torment and struggle alone.
"Jiang Yuan, help me check Gu Youran's information, the more detailed the better." Han Jingchen ordered in a deep voice.
"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to check it out now."
Jiang Yuan picked up the laptop that had fallen on the ground, quickly left the study, and closed the door gently.
A complex emotion surged in Han Jingchen's heart, a mixture of confusion and loss.
Suddenly, he found that he seemed to have never really understood Gu Youran.
After all, how many secrets does she have that he doesn't know?
Three years ago, she came to him. Was it really a coincidence?
Han Jingchen walked to the window and gazed at the sea of gentian flowers outside.
The moonlight was like water, gently sprinkling on each gentian flower, emitting a faint fragrance. This fragrance passed through the window and filled the entire study.
This is Gu Youran’s favorite taste. He never told her that he also likes this taste.
After three years of living together day and night, their living habits have inadvertently blended into each other.
On the 18-bend racetrack, Gu Youran's heroic demeanor was very different from the one he knew.
When she rides a motorcycle, she seems to become a different person, so confident, so dazzling, and unforgettable at first sight.
He silently repeated Gu Youran's name in his heart, and he didn't understand why he was so obsessed with pursuing her secret.
Obviously, the two people have broken up and have no contact anymore.
This obsession is like an invisible thread, tightly pulling at his heart.
Han Jingchen pinched his brows, and his feet involuntarily walked to the corner of the study, opened the door of the safe, and took out an ordinary wooden box from the bottom layer.
This box is very old and the edges are slightly worn due to the erosion of time.
He carefully opened the box, revealing his most precious memories.
In the box, there lay a badge necklace quietly.
This badge is small and exquisite. It is made of an unknown dark purple metal. The surface is finely carved, showing nobility and elegance.
In the middle of the badge, there is a flying eagle totem carved.
The totem is carved with exquisite craftsmanship, and every feather and every detail is lifelike.
This eagle spreads its wings as if ready to fly, its eyes sharp as if it can penetrate the boundaries of time.
The totem is surrounded by a circle of fine gold wire, on which exquisite patterns are carved. These patterns are staggered and intertwined, as if containing some kind of ancient and mysterious power.
The back of the badge is also engraved with some complex totems.
These totems echo the flying eagle totem on the front. They draw many circles in a disorderly manner, as if they are an ancient symbol or code.
Gently stroking the badge, he seemed to be back to when he was eight years old.
It was a stormy night.
A group of kidnappers quietly abducted him and imprisoned him in a desolate and lonely cave.
In that dark place, hunger and fear follow like shadows, and every second seems like a struggle in endless darkness.
He spent a long and agonizing day and night, and despair almost swallowed him up.
Just when he thought that his life was about to end, a young figure came into his sight and became the first ray of light that illuminated his life.
That was a little girl who looked only four or five years old. With a childish but determined look in her eyes, she untied the ropes that bound him.
Led by the little girl, they carefully walked through the darkness, trying to escape from the frightening cave.
In the panic and darkness, he did not see the little girl's face clearly.
I only remember her eyes that sparkled with courage.
Not long after walking, I heard the sound of dense footsteps from behind. It was the kidnappers chasing me.
Han Jingchen's heart was in his throat. They would soon be discovered.
At this critical moment, the little girl acted decisively, put on his coat, and prepared to lure the kidnapper away alone to buy him time to escape.
At the moment of parting, he grabbed the little girl's clothes and said weakly: "How can I find you in the future?"
Perhaps sensing Han Jingchen's uneasiness, the little girl took off a necklace from her neck, on which hung a unique badge.
She wrapped the necklace around Han Jingchen's neck and whispered, "I'm in the Yuncheng Orphanage. This is my amulet. It will protect you."
"Remember, hide behind this big rock. I'll lead those people away, and you take the opportunity to run to the other side, the farther the better."
After saying this, she disappeared into the night.
"Someone is running over there, chase him!" There was a flurry of footsteps and shouting from behind.
Han Jingchen pressed himself tightly against the big rock, holding his breath, tensing his body, and trying to minimize his presence.
At this tense moment, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten to ask the little girl's name.
