The girl couldn't help but rub her eyes, staring at the figure, and murmured softly: "No way..."
At this moment, the man on the deck with his back to her suddenly sighed and said to himself, "I just left home and I'm already feeling homesick..."
girl:"……"
When she heard the man's voice, she immediately confirmed her guess.
No way? I can even encounter this? What a coincidence!
After coming to her senses, the girl tiptoed behind the man, wanting to give him a surprise.
However, when they were only a few steps away from each other, the man seemed to notice something, suddenly turned his head and looked at the girl.
girl:"……"
Shen Cheng: “…”
After a moment of awkwardness, the girl scratched her head and said with a smile: "Chen Cheng, long time no see! Do you still remember me?"
"Uh..." Hearing this, Shen Cheng swallowed back the "Who are you" that was about to come out of his mouth.
"Oh, you are..." Pointing at the girl and looking at her wheat-colored skin, although Shen Cheng showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, a brainstorming was going on in his head.
One of the most embarrassing things in the world is meeting an acquaintance and not only does he or she recognize you but also calls out your name, but you don’t even know when you first met him or her.
Looking at the girl's facial features, Shen Cheng felt somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where she was no matter how hard he tried.
Chen Cheng was also very familiar with the girl's voice. It felt as if it had always been in his ears. She must be someone he was very familiar with.
The girl crossed her arms, and seeing Shen Cheng's increasingly embarrassed expression, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "What? Forgot about me?"
“Ahem…” Shen Cheng coughed awkwardly twice and nodded.
The girl's face suddenly fell. She pointed at herself and said unhappily, "It's me, it's me, Liu Yingxia! Do you remember now?"
"Liu... Yingxia?" Chen Cheng blinked, looking at the girl in front of him, and his memories of his youth suddenly flooded back, and then...
"Pfft!" Chen Cheng burst out laughing, pointing at Liu Yingxia and saying, "It's been so long, how come you've become so dark? Did you go to Africa for disaster relief?"
Hearing this, Liu Yingxia's mouth twitched slightly, and she reached out and patted Shen Cheng's back hard: "You are the only one who talks too much!"
The point is, Shen Cheng was right, she really did go there, and stayed there for several months, and just came back from completing a mission during this time.
"It's cold outside, let's go in and reminisce about the past." Seeing that Liu Yingxia wanted to say something and looking at her shivering slightly, Chen Cheng smiled.
Liu Yingxia nodded: "Let's go to my cabin."
Shen Cheng thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
Although his relationship with Liu Yingxia had ended long ago, they still had some close friendship, so Shen Cheng didn't think he needed to avoid suspicion.
Liu Yingxia is Shen Cheng’s girlfriend… well, to be exact, her ex-girlfriend.
Shen Cheng had already buried this history in his heart and had not revealed it to anyone since college.
The two have known each other since junior high school and have a very good relationship. In high school, they started dating without realizing it.
Previously, Chen Cheng said that he had a conflict with six boys who were two years older than him, and it was caused by her.
Of course, this matter has nothing to do with Liu Yingxia. She is also a victim. In the final analysis, it is Shen Cheng who is meddling in other people's business.
At that time, he was in the first grade of junior high school, and the other six boys were in the third grade. Afterwards, Liu Yingxia told the teacher, but the teacher naturally did not want to get involved in the matter and acted as a troublemaker, allowing the six third-grade students to go unpunished in the school.
In the end, when Chen Cheng's father, Shen Wei, learned about this, his protective nature broke out. He personally went to the school and had a closed-door talk with the teacher.
Chen Cheng didn't know what his father talked about with the teacher. Anyway, the next day, the principal stood on the podium and criticized the whole school. He dug up everything the six students had done in school and gave them serious disciplinary action.
Even the teacher was severely criticized for turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to the matter.
In the end, those students dropped out of school without even taking the high school entrance exam, and the matter ended there.
Shen Cheng knew that his Shen family had some connections, but he had never thought about finding out more specific things.
My father hardly ever goes out. He only occasionally goes to see the gorgeous flowers in his yard. On weekdays, he stays at home and brags with his tea friends. Those tea friends don't look like big shots.
Anyway, after this incident, Shen Cheng and Liu Yingxia became acquainted and they became very close.
When they entered high school, they both applied to the same high school and continued dating until their senior year.
However, although they were said to be dating, they had never done anything like a couple should do. At most, they held hands, which was not much different from their previous relationship.
After graduating from high school, Liu Yingxia was admitted to a famous medical school in Beijing, while Chen Cheng chose to stay in Mio City, preparing to establish his own cat cafe after graduation.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and chose to break up peacefully, each pursuing their own dreams.
The two have not been in contact since then.
Arriving in front of Liu Yingxia's cabin, Shen Cheng couldn't help but stand there in a daze.
Liu Yingxia turned her head and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
The corner of Shen Cheng's mouth twitched slightly, and he pointed to another cabin not far away: "That's my cabin..."
Hearing this, Liu Yingxia was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up: "That's such a coincidence!"
Walking into Liu Yingxia's cabin, Liu Yingxia sat down on the bed, while Chen Cheng sat down on a chair beside her, silently keeping a distance from each other.
No matter what, there is inevitably some estrangement between the two after breaking up.
However, on this passenger ship, the only person they were familiar with was each other.
"How are you doing now? Is the cat cafe built?" Liu Yingxia asked immediately after sitting down on the bed.
What she thought was that if Chen Cheng failed in his business and stopped thinking about his cat cafe, she might be able to introduce Chen Cheng to the Institute of Basic Biological Sciences.
Although the threshold for both special investigators and adaptable candidates is very high, what if Shen Cheng is selected?
Liu Yingxia was still clear about Chen Cheng's character. If Chen Cheng had not changed much over the years, then Chen Cheng was the kind of person who was lazy but would never refuse to do something that was within his responsibility.
Chen Cheng smiled and nodded: "I opened a light-point cat cafe in Mio City. It is very popular in Mio City. Now I have started to prepare to open a chain store."
"That's great, congratulations!" Upon hearing this, Liu Yingxia smiled. Instead of feeling disappointed, she was sincerely happy for Chen Cheng.
After all, the two of them have always used their dreams to encourage and support each other.
Chen Cheng's dream is to open a cat cafe, and he himself wants to become a doctor who saves lives.
