Chapter 193 I Know Your Secret
Perhaps even God could not estimate how nervous Song Yanzhou was at this moment, but this nervousness was not anticipation or excitement, but an irrepressible fear that made people want to retreat.
Maybe Ye Mu had already forgotten it, but when he said that she remembered it again.
After saying it, Song Yanzhou felt a little regretful.
But I'm afraid that if I don't tell him now, it will be too late when that day comes, and he will be caught off guard and helpless.
There is no perfect solution, whether advancing or retreating.
Ye Mu was eating with full concentration. He was stunned for a moment when he heard his words. He subconsciously slowed down his chewing speed and fiddled with the chopsticks in his hand with his slender fingers.
The scene when Song Yanzhou told her about this that day came to her mind. She not only remembered the divorce application, but also remembered the position of every word in it.
Remember what both of their signatures look like.
After swallowing the food in his mouth, Ye Mu nodded and said, "Remember, do you want to talk about this?"
Song Yanzhou glanced at the few bites of food she had left and said softly, "You eat first, and after you finish eating... let's talk, okay?"
"Um."
After Ye Mu finished eating, he put away his food, returned to the ward and sat down, then said:
"Want to discuss the time for submission?"
She lowered her eyes and thought for a while before saying:
"At least once the fighter jet is fully completed, the test flight is completed and there are no other problems, the fighter jet can be put into use."
"I'm not sure exactly when, but it should be around the beginning of October."
"No later than mid-October."
Her voice was very calm, as if she was discussing some kind of transaction with someone. In fact, this was also Ye Mu's attitude when he was conducting business negotiations with other organizations or individuals in the interstellar space.
Song Yanzhou could only hear her businesslike attitude and no emotion at all. He felt a little lost, depressed and heavy in his heart.
He actually expected her to at least show some reluctance or hesitation, but she turned out to be so ruthless.
With such a huge gap in contrast, how could he not feel lost? It even made him feel more uncomfortable than ever before.
But she was fair and just, but he was not.
"If you divorce me, what are your plans?"
"Are you still going to the Forty-Nine City as before to find an opportunity for your parents to leave the place where they were sent to?"
Ye Mu nodded. This point has not changed. Song Yanzhou continued to ask:
"And then?"
Ye Mu didn't understand: "What do you mean by later? Isn't my future plan obvious? Of course, I will continue to develop in the research institute."
Song Yanzhou pursed his lips and said, "It's not this."
"What's that? What plan do you want to know?"
Ye Mu looked at him, and Song Yanzhou stared into her eyes, his heartbeat gradually quickening, nervous.
"I want to ask, besides graduate school, what are your future plans for things like finding a partner and getting married?"
After Song Yanzhou finished speaking, he subconsciously stared at her expression, trying to find some flaws and information from it.
Ye Mu was just stunned for a moment, then stared at him silently.
That kind of gaze was so penetrating, as if it had seen through him completely. As soon as their eyes met, Song Yanzhou couldn't help but hold his breath. The hands at his sides also tightened a little, quietly clenching into fists.
The more nervous he was, the more flaws appeared on his cold face. Sweat gradually wet his hair in the hot weather. His body stiffened little by little under Ye Mu's gaze. Even his unconscious blinking became a little deliberate, as if he just wanted to temporarily avoid her gaze.
Ye Mu didn't say anything, but Song Yanzhou couldn't stand the silence between them anymore. His heart almost broke under her gaze. Not only was his body tense and stiff, his chest seemed to be getting stiffer and stiffer as well. The space inside was getting smaller and smaller, but his heartbeat was getting faster and faster, squeezing the remaining space in his chest.
"Why, why aren't you talking?" Song Yanzhou had to speak up, trying to break the unbearable atmosphere between the two of them, but as soon as he opened his mouth he exposed his emotions.
After asking this question, Song Yanzhou felt a little annoyed. His nervous words seemed to make the atmosphere a little worse - a little worse for him.
He didn't want to feel her silence and scrutiny, it was like a kind of torture.
And his nervous words were undoubtedly a confession of surrender, and he had no idea what he would get in the end.
Is that the wrong question?
Song Yanzhou pursed his lips tightly and took a deep breath silently, trying to adjust his state.
"Hmm..." Ye Mu hummed hesitantly, as if she was thinking, and drew out the ending sound. Her voice was originally sweet. As soon as she spoke, Song Yanzhou felt as if he was rescued and heaved a sigh of relief.
The next moment he widened his eyes slightly again, not daring to move at all. Ye Mu leaned towards him with her hands on the bed. There was still scrutiny in her eyes, but Song Yanzhou had no time to react. He could only watch her getting closer and closer to him until he could hear and feel her shallow breathing and count her long eyelashes.
Ye Mu didn't seem to have any intention of stopping, and Song Yanzhou closed his eyes nervously. The moment he closed his eyes, he couldn't help but quietly call her name in his heart. Suddenly, he felt a tingling sensation in his heart, which spread from his chest to his limbs, disrupting his breathing.
Ye Mu was just testing it out to make sure of his judgment. He saw him close his eyes nervously, his face flushed, and the overlapping eyelashes deepened the shadow of his eyes.
She suddenly laughed, turned away from his face, and whispered in Song Yanzhou's ear:
"Song Yanzhou, I know your secret."
It's about her, but more about himself.
Song Yanzhou opened his eyes, not knowing whether to be happy, sad, angry, or have any other emotions.
The feelings echoing in his heart were extremely complicated. Looking at her shoulder so close to him, Song Yanzhou lowered his head slightly and leaned it against it.
This posture made him look a little fragile. Ye Mu was about to sit up straight, but seeing him like this, he had to keep this posture for the time being and asked:
"What’s wrong with you?"
Song Yanzhou's gaze followed her arms and saw her hands supporting herself on the bed. There were emotions churning in her deep eyes that seemed to be about to overflow at any moment.
But when he lowered his eyes to her fingertips, his gaze seemed to have returned to its usual indifference.
"Just now...why did you suddenly get so close?"
Song Yanzhou asked aloud.
Ye Mu answered directly: "I want to see your reaction and confirm whether my judgment is correct."
Song Yanzhou exhaled and said, "I thought you were going to..."
He stopped talking halfway, and raised his hand to slowly hold her hand that was supporting her on the bed and said:
"Now that you know my secret, what are you going to do?"
