Chapter 1329 Don’t Look Back and Don’t Cry
"When the news of Gu Shuo's corruption came out, we were preparing for the wedding."
No matter how hard he tried to maintain a cold or calm expression, the corners of Cheng Yuqing's lips couldn't help but straighten at this moment.
It was as if I was being dragged down by the sudden and terrible turn of events in the past, until I could no longer support this bright and indifferent expression.
"I was writing the invitations in China, and he went abroad because he couldn't order the flowers he wanted. He happened to be bringing his nephew, who was an exchange student, back to attend the wedding."
"But once I left, I couldn't come back...or rather, there was nowhere to return to."
·
That was the only call she received after the accident.
Unknown source, unknown address, everything is blank.
Cheng Yuqing, who had just read the news, calmed down from the panic-stricken state of being shocked by the bolt from the blue almost instantly.
At that time, the woman, who was nurtured by love and career and became charming and lively, had a premonition of the terrible changes that might happen next. She just stared silently at the ringing phone, and kept thinking in her heart what kind of mood he was in.
Even though he knew that the relevant personnel's phone calls would definitely be monitored and that his call would most likely expose his whereabouts, he still called.
So, should I take it?
Should I still answer the call even though I know it might expose his whereabouts?
The woman answered the call expressionlessly and raised the phone to her ear.
Why not?
Since he was able to attack us, he must have made all the preparations, whether it was preparation to escape safely or preparation to escape in time even if he was discovered.
So why not trust my love?
"You're not coming back?"
The woman asked with a smile in her tone, as if she was checking in on him on a whim.
There was silence for a second, then he started laughing and said honestly,
“I’m afraid we won’t be able to come back in the short term.”
"There are a lot of big blonde girls here, but I won't do anything rash, you can rest assured."
"I can't talk to you for long because I'm busy."
"But no matter what happens now or in the future, I love you."
"Wait a moment!"
The woman's voice was almost hoarse, instantly interrupting the other party who was about to hang up the phone without hesitation.
No matter how much she prepared herself mentally and how many times she tried to calm herself down, she still couldn't control herself.
Even if you just listen to him say one more word, one more word means one more memory. Who knows if there will be another word?
"you,"
She tried hard to suppress the sob that almost broke out in her voice.
"Don't you have anything else to say?"
Even if the situation is urgent, even if every extra second of talking increases the risk of exposure, even if there is no light ahead - please, say one more word to me...
There was a slow and deep breath coming from the other side. After several seconds, he seemed to smile and said in a doting and sad tone,
"Don't wait for me, Xiao Qingqing. Remember to look forward. Don't look back and don't cry."
The conversation of a lifetime ends here.
When we met again, one of them had already lost all trace.
·
"Now that I think about it, I should have left that last sentence unsaid."
Cheng Yuqing took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress some uncontrollable emotions back into his heart.
She raised her head and glanced at the sky, looking at the faintly visible stars and forced a smile.
"It was like a shackle that trapped me for years. My dreams were filled with that phone call. Even his breathing was clear, not even faded."
