The air seemed to be stagnant.
Lu Shiyan reached out and rubbed my head, his voice sounding slowly.
"That time at the concert, the person I wanted to date was you..."
"The one who has been waiting for a divorce is you."
"The person I've liked for twenty years is you."
His voice was calm and steady, revealing a firmness and persistence that could not be questioned. His amber eyes were sparkling and compelling. "Nanzhi, it has always been only you, no one else."
My heart seemed to be pulled hard by something.
Then, I became panicked and at a loss.
It turns out that when someone like me is truly loved and cared for by others, my first reaction is that I don’t deserve it.
I couldn't help but feel mixed emotions, and subconsciously wanted to deny it, "How could it be me? Don't you know so many people? You and I..."
"Then do you remember I told you that I didn't come to the Lu family until I was eight years old?"
Lu Shiyan explained slowly, holding Yingyi's wrist in front of me, revealing the red string, "Before I was taken to the Lu family, I had always lived in Nancheng. Does this red string still have a seal?"
"No……"
I shook my head blankly.
My only memories before I was taken to my aunt's house were some fragments of my parents and the experience of being chased for debt.
My aunt had to look at Lin Guoan’s face so many times before she could even give me a bite of food, so it was impossible for her to take me to the hospital.
Later, when I started working, I consulted a doctor, who said it was amnesia syndrome caused by a severe trauma.
Moreover, it has been too long, and there is a high probability that the memory will not be restored.
"This was the birthday present you gave me back then."
Lu Shiyan didn't know the inside story, but he didn't feel lost at all. He was like the older brother next door. "It doesn't matter. There are still many days to come. I will just remember the past."
"you……"
I hesitated, "When did you recognize me?"
"That time, when you fainted from low blood sugar."
Lu Shiyan's eyes were filled with pity. "I heard someone calling your name."
He chuckled. "At the time, I thought it was just a nickname, but later I discovered that many of your habits remain the same as when you were little."
I blinked. "What habit?"
"I like spicy and sweet foods, I like pinching my hands when I'm nervous, and I'm afraid of all soft animals..."
Lu Shiyan said, looking at me, "So, it matches, right?"
Every time he said something, I became more convinced and had to admit, "Yeah! That's right."
It's really me.
It's definitely me.
only……
I squeezed my palms and said, "Senior, I might..."
I am unable to respond to your request at this time.
It’s not easy to like someone. Before you empty your heart, accept the next person.
It's too irresponsible to yourself and the other person.
"I don't require your consent."
Lu Shiyan knows me too well, his voice warm, "Nanzhi, you don't need to feel any guilt or pressure because of this. The reason I like you, and the reason I helped you that time, is because you protected me many times when I was a child."
"I'm a 'bastard' with a fatherless and a deceased mother. Every time I'm laughed at or bullied, you wave your little fists and protect me like a little heroine."
"Is that really the case?"
I asked back with some longing.
Was I really like the childhood I was described by him? Sunny, brave, fearless, living like a sunflower.
So how did I become what I am now...
"It's true."
Speaking of this, Lu Shiyan felt a little distressed. "So when I met you again in college, I hated myself for missing so much of your life and causing you so much suffering."
"Senior, this is none of your business."
㱗When I encountered misfortune, he was just a child.
There are some roads in life that you have to walk on your own.
No one can help.
He was able to give me a hand when I needed it the most. It was very, very helpful.
As they were talking, Jiang Lai came out with a hot pot and said with a smile, "How are you guys chatting? I'm ready to start cooking."
Lu Shiyan was very supportive, "Open it quickly, I didn't have time to eat lunch, I'm already hungry."
This hotpot was prepared with Jiang Lai, and we enjoyed it with constant laughter.
I gradually put that hot search behind me.
It will pass, everything will pass.
The next day, the snow still did not stop, the wind was cold and the ground was covered with snow.
Jiang Lai hadn't been out the previous night, and when he received the call, he almost jumped up in excitement. "Ruan Ruan, how's your injury? Can you go out today?"
I drank a glass of water. "What's wrong?"
"The RF contract has been approved! They said we can sign it now and the funds will be in place by noon!"
"So soon?"
Not to mention her, I was getting a little excited.
Logically speaking, for a large foreign company like RF, the contract process and funding approval should take some time.
It’s only been a few days?
When we arrived at the RF Group's office in Jiangcheng District, Mr. Cen Ye was already waiting in the reception room with his certificate.
Seeing me coming, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry, the company hasn't been established yet, so the environment is a bit simple."
"Boss Cen, are you planning to set up a company in Jiangcheng?"
Jiang Lai asked.
Cen Ye didn't hide it. As he handed the package over, he said, "It's exactly as planned. I was going to wait a little longer, but now I've run into some troubles, so I have to move it up."
I always felt that he meant something.
But I couldn't figure it out, so I just took the book and started reading it.
These are all reasonable treaties.
Jiang Lai looked at it and found no problem. Before I signed, Jiang Lai asked with a worried smile, "Boss Cen, are you sure the finance department will have the funds in place by noon?"
"Special situation, special treatment." Cen Ye blurted out casually.
Jiang Lai immediately grasped the key point, "Special circumstances?"
I was also a little confused and looked at Cen Ye.
Cen Ye was silent for a moment, then chuckled and said, "I really think Nancy has great potential. What if the funding is delayed and you guys sign with someone else?"
…
RF Group's efficiency is even faster than we expected.
As soon as I signed the contract and left, my cell phone rang.
The funds have arrived!
Jiang Lai was surprised and happy. He was about to go out for dinner, but he immediately turned the car around and drove towards the office building where he had paid the deposit.
The moment we signed the lease contract and got the keys, Jiang Lai and I saw anticipation and excitement in each other's eyes.
We finally have our own company.
Jiang Lai smiled happily, "Why don't you ask Lu Shiyan out so we can celebrate tonight?"
"Ah..."
Just as I agreed, my cell phone rang.
I picked it up and took a look. I couldn't help but clench my hands around the phone. The moment I answered the call, my body went a little stiff. "What's up?"
The man's voice on the other end was cold and low, as if we had never had any relationship before. "Are you free this afternoon?"
I stood by the window, letting the cold wind pour into my lungs. The coldness soaked my whole body, and my tone became cold as well.
"See what it is."
"Go get a divorce certificate."
"Very free."
