"If it's not your big boss, then who is it?"
Liu Liqi muttered her guesses.
Lan Qingyue waved her hand, denying it, "It's not him. Don't overthink it. Overworking your brain isn't good for the baby in your belly. The baby will get tired."
"Go away, you're making up lies without even thinking them through now! My baby is entertaining itself and has no interest in listening to our gossip."
Lan Qingyue clicked her tongue and said, "Someone actually mistook me for Yu Ning. How strange. Do you have any photos of Yu Ning after she grew up?"
Liu Liqi quickly flipped through the photos and exclaimed in surprise, "Yes, the earliest group photo is from three years ago. She was already in her twenties three years ago."
Each page of the album is marked with the date the photo was taken.
"Three years ago?" Lan Qingyue sat up straight. "Let's look at the photos from three years ago."
"I can't see it." Liu Liqi pointed to the last page of photos. "They used to take several group photos every year, but now they only take one group photo every year. Zhao Nan said that it was because the guys were too busy with their jobs after graduation, so they would take a day or two each year to have a big gathering and take a big group photo as a memento. This photo from three years ago is a group photo for Yu Ning's birthday. Everyone was wearing masks, so you can't tell."
What a pity.
Lan Qingyue: "...Even four years ago is fine."
Liu Liqi: "The girls in the photos from four years ago are all posing in funny ways. What can you tell from that?"
Lan Qingyue: "Five years ago?"
Liu Liqi: "The Spring Festival makeup is so festive."
Lan Qingyue: "...Six years ago."
Liu Liqi: "Six years ago, everyone was holding an emoji to cover their face."
Lan Qingyue: "..."
They get weirder every year.
Lan Qingyue was still very curious, "Is this the only photo album? There's nothing else?"
"That's all." Liu Liqi placed the photo album on Lan Qingyue's lap and said, "Only this one has a group photo. The other albums are incomplete. To be precise, they only have a few men in them. There are no more girls in the group photos."
Lan Qingyue: "???"
They broke up?
"Qi Yu and Yu Ning broke up three years ago?"
Is it because it's too awkward after the breakup that we won't take photos together?
“No, it’s Yu Ning who’s gone,” Liu Liqi said with a regretful expression, her emotions tinged with sadness. “I heard she had terminal cancer. Such a beautiful woman died young.”
Zhao Nan was away on a business trip, so Lan Qingyue stayed for dinner before taking Chu Chu back home.
All the way, she kept thinking about the same question: since Chu Chu is Qi Yu's child, could Chu Chu's mother be Yu Ning, who is no longer alive?
Yu Ning left for three years, and Chu Chu turned three years old.
Is it possible for such a coincidence to happen?
...
Neon lights shone brightly, and vehicles flowed endlessly. The vast night sky was not tinged with much darkness, and the lights in the top-floor offices of the towering buildings were exceptionally clear.
The man sitting at the back of the office had his back to the office door. The door was pushed open from the outside, and the sound of leather shoes hitting the floor was particularly clear, tearing open the silence of the night.
"Close the door," the man said, without turning around.
The person who entered tried his best to suppress the anger in his chest and slammed the door shut with a loud "bang".
"You knew all along, didn't you?" Gu Yizhi strode to the desk, placed his hands on the surface, and stared at Qi Yu's head with bloodshot eyes, as if he was about to explode at any moment.
Qi Yu admitted without the slightest hesitation: "Yes."
