The homeowner has already caught a plane and left!
"What did you say?!" Li Yuan's voice rose two decibels: "Say it again!"
The cleaning lady was startled, but she still obediently repeated, "I... I said, the owner of this house has already gone abroad. Mr. Luo asked me to come and clean before he left. He also asked me to cover the sofa and everything with dust covers after I finished cleaning. He probably won't be back for a long time."
Li Yuan's expression changed, and he strode upstairs.
"Hey, sir! Sir!"
The cleaning lady tried to stop him, but Li Yuan took three steps at a time, and she couldn't catch up with him.
There were several rooms upstairs, and Li Yuan opened them one by one.
Until the innermost room was opened, and Li Yuan took just one step inside, she knew that this was the place where she had lived.
Her slightly restless heart was soothed the moment she smelled her faint scent still lingering in the air.
With his leather shoes clicking on the floor, Li Yuan walked in step by step.
The spacious master bedroom is fully visible. The two-meter-wide bed is neatly made, with the quilt spread out on the bed. The curtains are drawn to the sides, and the sunlight shines in through the window.
There was a women's dressing table in the corner, but it was completely empty of bottles and jars.
It's so clean here, so clean... it's like no one has ever lived here before.
Li Yuan stared at it silently for a few seconds, then walked towards the wardrobe to the side.
The wardrobe was spotless; only the clothes racks hanging on the rod told Li Yuan that clothes had been stored there before.
When one cabinet was empty, Li Yuan would open the next one...
Suddenly, Li Yuan stopped, seemingly not knowing what he had seen.
He looked at the black thing in the closet, remained silent for a few seconds, and then took it out.
It's a piece of clothing; unfolded, it's a trench coat.
Li Yuan recognized it at a glance; it was his trench coat.
This was the coat he draped over her shoulders when he first met her at the convenience store. She had mentioned returning it to her several times, but he never had the chance.
As Li Yuan unfolded his trench coat, the handkerchief inside fell to the ground.
Li Yuan bent down and picked up the handkerchief.
In the closet where trench coats are kept, there is also a transparent umbrella.
The trench coat, the umbrella, the handkerchief—these were all things he gave her.
She took all her belongings with her, leaving only these three items behind.
Only now did Li Yuan believe that she was gone, leaving without a word of farewell.
"Hey!" The cleaning lady chased after me upstairs: "I don't care who you are, get out of here! Someone will come to check after I finish cleaning, and I won't be able to explain if something is missing!"
Li Yuan didn't say anything, but took out his phone from his pocket and made a call.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is not in service..."
The number is invalid.
Li Yuan hung up and dialed again.
"sorry……"
It's still the same mechanical female voice.
The cleaning lady silently followed Li Yuan downstairs. At first, she kept shouting to leave quickly, but she was so frightened by Li Yuan's death stare that she fell silent.
Li Yuan went downstairs and walked towards the door. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught something, stopped in his tracks, and looked at the pile of garbage on the ground.
The bubble ball had exploded, and all that could be found were the remaining "corpse" and the rope that had tied it. The rose was ruined, and petals were scattered all over the ground.
Li Yuan suddenly stopped, which startled the aunt. Seeing that he was looking at the pile of garbage, she was afraid of being misunderstood, so she quickly explained.
