The room was dark, and the lights had not been turned on.
The phone was an outdated model, and it took a long time to boot up. The faint light from the screen shone on the man's face, making his expression appear even colder.
Zeng lowered his eyelashes, his gaze deep, lost in thought.
For the past ten years, he has always kept this phone charged, even though it was switched off, and sometimes he would turn it on to see if there were any messages from that person.
Unfortunately, he received nothing in return.
Zeng also opened the photo album, which contained photos he had taken with Liuyin before, and of course, there were more solo photos of Liuyin.
When they were dating, he loved taking pictures of her, and he was the one who selected and developed those photos.
His fingertips swiped across the screen, looking at the somewhat unfamiliar face. The man's throat tightened slightly, and his eyes reddened a little.
In fact, he hadn't seen Ye Liuyin's photos in a long time.
In the year immediately following their breakup, he couldn't let go and would often open his photo album to look at her pictures, constantly reminiscing about the sweet time they spent together.
But after he got over the heartbreak, he locked the photos, along with his feelings of love, in a closet.
In fact, over the years, he had long forgotten what Ye Liuyin looked like; all he could remember was that he liked her very much back then.
He loved her so much that he argued with his family for her, and he loved her so much that all his firsts were with her.
Many years later, when I looked at these photos again, I felt a mix of emotions.
He vaguely recalled the time right after the breakup, when he kept trying to call the number but couldn't get through, only to later find out that he had been blocked.
Even though he tried countless different phone numbers afterward, the person on the other end never answered.
At the time, Zeng didn't understand why Ye Liuyin could be so resolute. Were their feelings fake?
How could it only be worth 20 million?
That's why Zeng worked so hard later on, even though he already had a lot of money.
But he could never forget his first love, who chose to leave him because of 20 million.
Looking at the photos in the album, Zeng Ye was somewhat stunned.
The man hesitated for a long time, his finger hovering over the delete button, before finally turning off his phone and tossing it into the cabinet.
Zeng lay helplessly on the bed, staring blankly at the dark ceiling. Oh well, it has nothing to do with him anymore anyway.
Isn't getting married and having children a perfectly normal thing? A long time has passed, so it's perfectly normal for Ye Liuyin to have children.
Even if she goes back to China, it has nothing to do with him.
I used to really like the atmosphere of not having the lights on; in complete darkness, it was hard to see the expression on his face.
The man lay on the bed for a while, then suddenly sat up abruptly and clenched his fists tightly.
He felt he still needed to see Ye Liuyin.
He just wanted to see just how rich the man who married Ye Liuyin really was.
Only then could she be willing to marry someone else and have children for him.
——
Caesar is of mixed race and has light blonde hair, making him look like a little angel.
Especially her deep blue eyes, which easily evoke images of a clear sky, and two shallow dimples appear on her fair cheeks when she smiles.
He is six years old this year, and his daily chores are taken care of by a nanny. Liuyin and 003's main focus is on companionship.
When Liuyin got home, before she even stepped inside, a figure burst out like a firecracker, shouting, "Mom!"
Xize suddenly threw himself into Liuyin's arms, calling her name sweetly.
Liu Yin crouched down and hugged him, gently ruffling his light golden hair. "Has Xiao Xi been a good boy at home?"
"Mom, I've been a good girl at home, and I've learned a lot of things today."
Seeing her son's obedient appearance, Liuyin couldn't help but kiss his fair cheek.
This action made Xize blush, and he hesitated before saying, "Dad said I'm all grown up now and can't let Mom kiss me anymore."
Liu Yin smiled gently, took his hand and walked into the house, "Then let's not let Dad know."
"I'll take you out to play in a couple of days."
Seeing the smile on Liu Yin's face, Xize nodded in agreement, "Okay."
He was naturally happy to go out and have fun, but he felt a little guilty towards his father.
He deliberately brought up his father in front of his mother, but she didn't seem to react much.
Xiaoxi knew a long time ago that his parents had divorced. Although his father would sometimes come to see him, he would not stay here.
He really wanted his father to be with him, but his mother wouldn't allow his father to stay at the manor.
If he stays with his father, it means he will be separated from his mother.
However, Xize is quite looking forward to this trip, since his dad has always taken him out to play before.
After booking the plane tickets, 003 started urging Liuyin to pack her things.
They've lived here for several years now, so they'll definitely bring a lot of things back with them this time.
"Got it." With 003's urging voice all around her, Liu Yin casually replied, "I'll have someone come up and clean up later."
After flipping through her contacts, Liu Yin couldn't find the number she was looking for and couldn't help but frown slightly.
When did she delete it?
"003, do you know how to contact the male lead's friend, whose name is Xingxing?"
"The male lead's friend?" 003 looked up some information. "Is it the one named Liang Nanxing?"
"Yes." Liu Yin nodded, a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
003 was somewhat puzzled, "Yes, but why would we need his contact information?"
“Just ask him to come pick us up,” Liu Yin said matter-of-factly. “003, I’m just going to follow the plot; I’m not actually going to get slapped in the face.”
In the original story, the white moonlight character had a rather tragic ending. She lost both her money and love, and when she returned to China, the male lead exposed her materialistic true colors, leading to her impoverished life.
If this were just a story, Liuyin would naturally be on the protagonist's side.
Unfortunately, she's now playing the role of a materialistic ex-girlfriend.
"But isn't he the male lead's friend? Why would he come to pick you up? You know, in the original story, Liang Nanxing really dislikes you."
Hearing 003's words, Liu Yin couldn't help but laugh, "003, you're a system, you don't understand human emotions yet."
"Actually, the plot has changed a lot, but the important turning points are still the same."
Liuyin simply became Zengye's boyfriend according to the plot, and then took the money to go abroad.
However, their relationship progressed differently, and the amount of money Liuyin received for her trip abroad also changed.
In the original story, Zeng's mother gave a check for only one million, but for Liu Yin, it was twenty million.
This confirms Liuyin's reputation as a gold digger.
003 didn't understand, but still gave Liuyin the contact information. It stayed by the pillow, watching Liuyin dial the number.
