He Chen walked towards the parking lot and pressed the answer button.
For some reason, a strange feeling came over him.
He still remembers what Yun Shuning said to him in the hospital that day. She didn't want him to appear in front of her.
But today, why did she take the initiative to look for him?
Did something happen?
"He Chen."
He had never heard Yun Shuning's voice sound like this before. Even when she knew the truth about her uncle's disappearance, her voice didn't sound so... empty and hollow.
It's like floating from another world.
"What's wrong with you?" He held the phone tightly, his voice full of anxiety, "Where are you? I'll be there right now."
"No need." Yun Shuning spoke slowly, like a child learning to speak. "Do you know what He Yan likes?"
Uncle again. For some reason, this was the first thought that came to his mind. It seemed that every time she interacted with him, this topic would always be discussed.
Yun Shuning held the phone and listened attentively to the sounds on the phone. She couldn't get a single word wrong this time.
"I... know." The voice on the phone was a little puzzled, "But Miss Yun, why are you suddenly asking about this today?"
"I just suddenly realized that the He Yan in my memory seems to be very different from the one in other people's memories." She blinked, and her voice became more nostalgic.
There was silence for a moment on the other end of the phone, and then the person slowly started talking about He Yan's preferences.
Most things are similar to what is said in the original book, but He Chen’s description is more detailed.
He Yan likes dark-colored clothes, and all his clothes are custom-made. He is very picky, whether it is about people, things or objects...
Yun Shuning listened carefully, and He Yan's image slowly became clearer in front of her, becoming flesh and blood.
"Thanks."
After He Chen finished speaking, he listened to the voice on the phone, which was a little doubtful: "Miss Yun, are you okay?"
It's no wonder that he was suspicious. Although she didn't sound unusual when she spoke just now, he could tell from her voice that she seemed to have no attachment to this world anymore.
"I'm fine." Yun Shuning smiled and said softly, "I'm just a little tired and want to take a nap."
"Then you should have a good rest."
After hanging up the phone, he called Assistant Wang out of concern.
After Yun Shuning hung up the phone, the sadness and pain that lingered around her disappeared instantly.
Today she finally solved the thing she had been worrying about, and she was completely free to do what was left.
However, as someone who has just learned about these things, she still needs to put on a good show.
If Yun Shuning, who deeply loves He Yan, knew that He Yan has been giving in behind her back, what would she do?
Yun Shuning closed her eyes and brought herself inside.
If she were 'her', she would be desperate, regretful, and want to sleep forever, not wanting to face the waking world.
She opened her eyes, with a hint of helplessness in them.
She was about to start ruining her newly recovered body.
…
"Mr. He." After Assistant Wang finished reporting all the work, he stood there in confusion, not knowing whether he should say it or not.
Yesterday at noon, Mr. He suddenly called him and asked him to find someone to closely monitor Yun Shuning's movements.
He Chen raised his head, looked at the person standing there, and said indifferently: "Is there anything else?"
"Ms. Yun Shuning has been staying at home these past two days and hasn't gone out." He stood up straight, ready to tell everything he had found out. "But after investigation, I found that since yesterday noon, Miss Yun's apartment has hardly used any electricity, and she didn't even turn on the lights at night."
It was only one day, and these things didn't sound too abnormal. He had planned to report to Mr. He if Yun Shuning was still like this in two days.
But his many years of experience working with Mr. He told him that he'd better talk about this matter today.
As soon as he finished speaking, He Chen stood up with a frown on his face, his voice carrying a hint of anger: "Why didn't you report it earlier?"
"Forget it." He picked up the clothes on the back of the chair and said, "I'm going out now. I'll postpone this afternoon's schedule to tomorrow."
"...Yes." Assistant Wang responded with a confused look on his face. Why did President He care so much about Yun Shuning?
Doesn't Mr. He have a girlfriend? And isn't Yun Shuning Mr. He's... aunt?
Did he know something he shouldn't know?
On the other side, in Yu Cheng’s office, Secretary Ming had a look of joy on his face, crying.
Yu Cheng came to the company more than four times this week, which is simply a miracle!
"If you look at me like that again, forget about your bonus this month." Yu Cheng felt his gaze sticking to him and got goose bumps.
While flipping through the documents that Secretary Ming handed over, he asked as if he didn't care at all, "How is the person I asked you to keep an eye on doing recently?"
"Been paying attention to it?" Secretary Ming had a huge question mark on his face. How come he didn't know about it when it happened?
"Are you talking about... Miss Yun?" He looked at him and asked cautiously.
"Hmm." Yu Cheng hummed through his nose, and without any pause, he signed his name smoothly.
"Ms. Yun has been staying at home since she returned home yesterday at noon, and has not come out yet." Secretary Ming's voice was filled with a hint of relief. Fortunately, he had been a secretary for so many years and always habitually implemented the president's requirements. Otherwise, he would not be able to answer President Yu's questions today.
"Haven't you moved at all?" His hand stopped unconsciously.
"Is there any problem?" Secretary Ming asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"No, you can go out." Yu Cheng waved his hand without raising his head.
Secretary Ming walked to the door and looked back at him who was working: Could it be that Mr. Yu, who is working so hard, has been possessed by someone?
After he left, Yu Cheng closed the file with an annoyed look on his face.
Forget it, just think of him as going out to relax.
Thinking of this, he took off the coat hanging on the chair and walked out of the office quickly.
Secretary Ming, who was walking towards his workstation, saw Yu Cheng walking past him. His target was the elevator.
Sure enough, this is the real President Yu.
"Why are you here too?" After registering downstairs, Yu Cheng came to the door of Yun Shuning's apartment.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I got out of the elevator, I saw He Chen standing there tense.
After seeing him, a hint of surprise flashed in He Chen's eyes, but his mood was completely filled with anxiety.
"I knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered."
"I just called Miss Yun many times, but no one answered..."
"Maybe it's because I saw the contacts displayed on my phone and felt it was unlucky."
He Chen was stunned by his words. He took a deep breath and continued with a serious face: "From yesterday noon to now, that is, four o'clock in the afternoon, the electricity consumption in this apartment has remained at an extremely low value. You should know what this means."
Apart from the electrical appliances in the room that are connected every day, there is no other electricity consumption in this apartment.
"Yesterday, she called me and her tone was very strange."
Hearing his words, the indifference on Yu Cheng's face disappeared without a trace, and he also remembered Yun Shuning's abnormal behavior yesterday.
"You can also try to call her and see if anyone answers."
He subconsciously reached into his pocket, but halfway through, he suddenly remembered that he didn't have Yun Shuning's phone number at all.
"Why are you fighting?" He naturally turned his hand that was about to reach for his pocket to his sleeve and adjusted his sleeve. "In this situation, it's better to be simple and rough."
As soon as he finished speaking, he kicked the door shut.
"Yun Shuning, if you don't come out, I'll tear down the door for you!"
"Yu Cheng, you..."
"Do you have any more useful ideas?" he said, and kicked him again.
Yun Shuning, who was sleeping, could only hear the sound of the attacks echoing in her ears: "It's so noisy, who is so immoral?"
In order to reduce consumption, she has been sleeping since last night.
She originally thought that she would have to hold out for at least two days before anyone noticed that something was wrong with her. If no one noticed, the third day would be the time for her to go to He Yan's villa.
If she hadn't made any movement at that time, someone would definitely come looking for her, so her action was foolproof.
She picked up her phone and glanced at the time: Just over a day had passed, and someone was already coming to her house?
The noise at the door became louder and louder. She sighed and turned to get out of bed.
The curtains in the room were drawn tightly and there was no light in the whole room. She fumbled to turn on the bedside lamp.
As soon as she stood up, she felt her legs were very weak. Not eating for a day and a night did have a great impact on her body, but it was acceptable.
When she was in the entertainment industry in her previous life, there was a role that required the actor to be very thin. In order to meet the director's requirements, she went hungry for four or five days, only drinking water and eating a little food every day, and she persisted.
In the end, all the scenes shot by this character were deleted because they conflicted with the heroine's personality.
As she thought, she moved to the door and reached out to open it.
"I think we should contact the locksmith company directly. If that doesn't work, we can call the police." Having kicked the door for more than ten minutes, Yu Cheng no longer had any temper.
He Chen was about to say something when he saw the door that had been closed slowly open.
"You are so noisy." A weak voice sounded softly in the ears of the two people.
