(315)
Ye Wenyu quietly spent Lunar New Year's Eve and then Lunar New Year's Day alone in the girls' dormitory. However, she was already used to it, so she didn't feel too sad.
Life is your own. As long as you are good and strong enough, those who truly love you will be waiting for you ahead.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Ye Wenyu worked as a waitress at a restaurant. She worked for two consecutive days, including the New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve and the family reunion dinner on New Year's Day. By the time she finished work, it was already 10 p.m. on New Year's Day. She was so exhausted that her bones felt like they were falling apart, and she felt as if she had been beaten up, in excruciating pain.
There were few people on the street, and the road was icy, so you had to walk carefully to avoid slipping.
Everyone was at home celebrating the Lunar New Year. She walked silently back to school. When she reached the alleyway, she didn't see the big truck. She felt a pang of disappointment, but then smiled bitterly. She wondered why he would be there. It was Lunar New Year; he must be with his family, enjoying a warm family life. Besides, the reason he often appeared on this road wasn't because of her, but because it just happened to be on his way. His workplace and home were located on this route.
As Ye Wenyu pondered, her heart felt heavy, as if filled with lead. Suddenly, her vision brightened, like the match girl striking a new match, revealing a warm and bright world.
Ye Wenyu turned around in surprise and saw the black Mercedes SUV reappear behind her in the swirling snow. Its headlights were on, like a reassuring prehistoric beast, slowly following her and illuminating her path.
Looking at it, she felt a warmth in her heart, and her previously depressed and heavy mood lifted up. She thought happily, "There are still people in this world who care about me, aren't there? I'm not like an orphan living in the desert, am I?"
She smiled and waved to the truck before gracefully turning to walk her own way. She blushed, thinking that she didn't care whether the driver saw her silly expression or not; maybe he was just going the same way. As long as she was happy, that was all that mattered.
The bright light had been guiding her forward, bringing her light and hope, warmth and peace of mind. This silent companionship continued until she reached the university gate. Ye Wenyu turned around, bowed deeply to the truck, then put her hand to her mouth, made a megaphone shape, and shouted loudly at the truck, "Happy New Year!" Only then did she turn around to enter the school gate. At this moment, a car horn beeped behind her.
Ye Wenyu froze, turned around, and saw that the large truck, which was originally about to turn around and leave, had unexpectedly driven directly in front of her. The engine was still running, and the bright light from the headlights enveloped her in a strong glare. Snowflakes fluttered down, landing on her hair and eyelashes, making her feel like the center of a stage. Ye Wenyu stood there, stunned. Then the driver's side window rolled down, revealing Lin Tingfeng's handsome face. He smiled gently at her and said softly, "Happy New Year!"
Like a bolt from the blue, Ye Wenyu was stunned. It was him! It was actually him! The owner of the truck that had been with her for over a month was Lin Tingfeng.
Her eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.
She was so stupid. She should have realized it was him sooner. After all, in S City, there aren't many people who can afford a luxury car worth over six million.
Who else is there besides Lin Tingfeng?
She looked at him in shock, still finding it hard to believe. Her heart was a jumble of emotions, a mixture of surprise, joy, and bewilderment. Before this, she had hated him so much and wanted to distance herself from him, but fate had brought them together again.
At this moment, in her world, among all the people who cared about her, only Lin Tingfeng remained.
She was actually quite happy to see him.
Everyone else was just a passerby, but he, like the unmoving green mountains in the distance, remained eternally by her side.
Is this really fate's arrangement?
Lin Tingfeng turned off the engine, opened the car door, and slowly got out of the car. He walked straight to her and stopped, casually putting his hands in his coat pockets. He lowered his head, smiled at her, and said, "You just wished me a Happy New Year. I thought I couldn't just leave without saying goodbye, so I came forward to wish you a Happy New Year. This year is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so I should still offer my blessings."
He smiled gently, and Ye Wenyu stood beneath his tall figure, feeling as if she were bathed in a spring breeze.
Happy New Year! With the Spring Festival approaching, at the beginning of the new year, someone finally wished Ye Wenyu a Happy New Year, and her heart was filled with warmth.
The snowflakes continued to fall like willow catkins, and the headlights of the car were still shining. At this moment, in the center of the stage, there were two people: him and her.
He was tall and strong, wearing a black overcoat that was impeccably pressed and meticulously tailored.
Suddenly remembering his previous injuries, Ye Wenyu immediately asked with concern, "Are your injuries healed?"
A warm feeling washed over Lin Tingfeng, and he smiled and said, "Of course, if you hadn't saved me, I might have died long ago. So, my savior, how about we have a meal together?"
Looking at the car behind him, Ye Wenyu mustered her courage and asked, "Your car used to illuminate my way back to school every night. Have you been busy in this area lately?"
Lin Tingfeng was taken aback for a moment before he understood. Looking at her curious expression, he couldn't very well say that he had been wanting to see her and pursue her ever since he recovered, so he often appeared near her school. Later, he found it very dangerous for her to return to school late at night, so he made up his mind that every day after finishing his work, he would drive out of the company and go directly to that alley to wait for her and protect her.
Therefore, he nodded silently as an answer to her.
Ye Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief, as if if he had only happened to be passing by by chance, she wouldn't owe him a favor. Lin Tingfeng found it amusing; this girl, even now, seemed to still not want any other relationship with him.
He gently invited, "How about we have New Year's Eve dinner together?"
Ye Wenyu really wanted someone to be with her during the Spring Festival, but if it was Lin Tingfeng, she took a step back and hesitated, saying, "Don't you need to be with your family? What about your wife and children?"
Lin Tingfeng froze, his smile vanished instantly, and he fell silent for a moment.
Ye Wenyu was somewhat annoyed, but she didn't regret it. She was indeed very lonely, but Lin Tingfeng was definitely not a good match for her. She couldn't let loneliness make her lose her principles. Therefore, she simply said, "Goodbye," and then turned and ran away.
