"Everyone is busy, who would bother to take this seriously? It will be forgotten in a few days. No one will keep paying attention to this matter except you."
"If there really are those with bad intentions, we can sue them and pursue legal action."
"If you're still afraid, I can take you somewhere else to live. We can go to Nini Island, away from all this trouble."
"You're just too shameless, that's why she's controlling you. Just a few photos, and you can still let her control you for the rest of your life?"
"That's because you're a woman." Yan Zheng retorted, "If you were a man, you would know how I feel."
"Yes, I am a woman, but one thing is certain: as long as my soul is still me, I will not be ashamed of such things."
"The people who should be ashamed are those who used my body as a weapon against me."
"Those people aren't ashamed, so why should I be ashamed of my body?"
"Yan Zheng!" Sang Tianen looked at him straight, "You know all these principles."
Yes, the psychologist has told him these things many times, and he knows them, so why is it still like this?
Why did we end up back where we started?
Why are we still trapped by the past?
Yan Zheng was stunned, a mist gradually rising in front of his eyes. Sang Tianen's voice seemed to echo in his mind, and the voice grew louder and louder, until it was like a deafening bell, threatening to shatter him.
Sang Tianen looked at the man whose tears were like a dam bursting, said nothing, and silently closed the door.
Sang Tianen returned to the study, found a pack of cigarettes, took out one and started smoking. She stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the lights of the city in the distance, and her heart could not calm down for a long time.
According to the investigation of the private detective, one of the five people died in a car accident, one is in prison, and the other is missing abroad.
The most likely person to contact Yan Zheng is either Xia Chun or Zhang Han, or both of them are involved, after all, they are the only ones who have seen Yan Zheng.
But based on the timeline, there is one person who seems more likely.
"Xu Qingyue..." Sang Tianen murmured the man's name, his eyes narrowed. "If you can't get it, then destroy it. This is in line with your style of doing things."
After more than ten years of exile abroad, she finally returned to China. As soon as she came back, she couldn't wait to find Yan Zheng to rekindle their old relationship. It was hard not to be suspicious.
However, Sang Tianen did not plan to investigate further. After all, he would know the true identity of this person on Friday, which would only take two days.
She turned around, stubbed out her cigarette, threw it in the trash, and turned on her computer. Just as she was about to log into Yan Zheng's email, there was a knock on the study door.
"Come in!" She cut off the screen, sat up straight, and looked at Yan Zheng who was walking towards her. "Have you made up your mind?"
"I want to go to Wangyue Park to meet that person." Yan Zheng took a deep breath and said, "You're right, that incident is long gone. I'm the only one who still can't forget it."
"You want to face your fear?" Sang Tianen looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Have you thought about it? Are you sure you can do it?"
"I don't want to be a coward for the rest of my life." Yan Zheng's eyes were dark and shiny. "And you will protect me, right?"
"Of course, I will protect you no matter what happens." Sang Tianen said sincerely, "I'm very happy that you can take this step. From this moment on, you will truly recover."
Really recovered? Yan Zheng muttered to himself.
He once thought that time could heal everything, but that was just a false illusion. Can a broken mirror be restored to its original state after being glued together?
If you want the mirror to be as smooth as before, you have to re-forge it. Time will not change its essence, but will only make people forget the sound when the mirror broke, and the cracks will still be hideous and terrifying.
Now all he has to do is go back to the drawing board and rebuild himself. This is his only chance to recover...
On Friday, Sang Tianen and Yan Zheng each took an afternoon off and came to Wangyue Park. As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw a sign from the park management office saying that the park was under renovation and would not open until tomorrow.
"Did you read the time correctly?" Sang Tianen turned his head to look at Yan Zheng.
Yan Zheng frowned and said, "No, I wouldn't be wrong. Could it be that person made a mistake?"
"I think the person knew the park was being renovated and deliberately arranged it at this time."
"But how do we get in?"
Sang Tianen looked at the security guard who was looking down at the glass window, not knowing what he was doing. After thinking for a moment, he said to Yan Zheng, "Wait a moment!"
As he said that, he walked forward and pushed open the half-open door.
The security lady was looking down at her phone. When she heard the voice, she immediately looked up and said perfunctorily, "The park is closed to the public today. It's being renovated. Come back tomorrow."
Sang Tianen pulled the corner of his mouth, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and handed it to the old lady, saying, "Sister, my boyfriend came over to play yesterday and accidentally dropped his earring. It was a coming-of-age gift his father bought him. Can you please be flexible and let us go in and look for it?"
"Don't worry, we won't be delayed too long. Whether we can find it or not, we will be out within an hour."
The old lady's eyes passed over the cigarette in Sang Tianen's hand, and she cleared her throat and said, "Then you must pay attention to safety. There are workers repairing the road inside. Don't fall when you walk."
"Sure, sure." Sang Tianen put down the cigarette, turned around and waved to Yan Zheng, and the two of them entered the park through the small door together.
I had only taken two steps when I heard the security guard's curious voice behind me: "It's really strange today. So many people are coming here looking for things."
Sang Tianen paused and looked at Yan Zheng, and Yan Zheng also looked over at him at this time. Their eyes met in the air, and they had a plan in mind.
After walking for a distance, Sang Tianen stopped and said to Yan Zheng, "We can't go any further. We might be discovered."
Yan Zheng tightened his windbreaker jacket, which contained a small camera. Although he could not see the outside, he could hear clear sounds.
He and Sang Tianen considered buying the miniature ones, but time was too tight, and this thing was not allowed to be sold on the market unless a special license was applied for.
So I could only buy this small one, which could barely serve as a monitor, and Sang Tianen could monitor it synchronously through software.
He also prepared some self-defense items in his bag, such as pepper spray and pepper spray, which allowed him to go to the appointment with peace of mind.
"After you go there, see what the other party wants to do and whether they have accomplices. I will be near you." Sang Tianen straightened his clothes and reminded him.
Yan Zheng nodded solemnly: "Got it."
