Chapter 91 Love at First Sight
Three years later.
Yangcheng International Airport.
An Alpha wearing a dark gray long trench coat walked with straight, slender legs, pulling a suitcase, and making a phone call as she weaved through the crowd.
A rambling voice came from the other end of the phone: "Seriously, buddy? You came back because of work and not because of my wedding with Wen Xu?"
"Our feelings have faded. We haven't seen each other for three years, and we're no different from online friends."
Despite being labeled with countless tags by Duan Ze, Guan Ju's cold and stern face remained completely devoid of emotion.
“If it weren’t for your wedding, I would never have come back for work.”
"so---"
"Please study logic properly."
Duan clicked his tongue lightly: "Then I don't think our relationship is in any precarious situation."
Guan Ju said calmly, "The plane ticket from Suicheng to my city costs 1,500 yuan. If you value our relationship, you will definitely fly over to see me."
Duan Ze, who was criticized, said: "........."
Guan Ju added, "You're not short of 1,500 yuan; it's cheaper than the small receipts you used to give to mold makers."
Duan Ze: "Hey, hey, hey! Why are you bringing up old stories again?"
Duan Ze: "I'm almost a married man now, can you give me some face? I only did that because she danced so well, didn't I?"
Duan Ze: "Besides! It's not that I don't want to see you, it's that I'm afraid of disturbing your peace! And have you forgotten? You only slowly started to remember me in the second year after you lost your memory! Besides, you're recovering well. What if I start nagging you and make you remember nothing at all? And end up as a vegetable..."
Guan Ju walked out of the airport. "You mean I still need to thank you, right?"
Duan chuckled: "You're welcome."
Guan Ju didn't want to continue bickering with Duan Ze. Both of them were twenty-eight years old and about to turn thirty, and they were no longer as childish as before.
“By the way,” Duan asked in a low voice, “how is your recovery going?”
Guan Sui hailed a taxi, gave the name CC Group, and the driver helped put his suitcase in the trunk. He climbed into the back seat, closed the door, and then slowly answered Duan Ze's question.
"fine."
"I went for a check-up a while ago, and there's nothing seriously wrong."
"Except for some fragmented memories, I'm slowly coming back to them."
Duan hesitated before tentatively asking, "During this time, did you remember anything—?"
Guan Ju asked, "What did you remember?"
Duan then thought of the things he had been told to do, so he simply gave up and clicked his tongue again.
"It's nothing. Since you didn't ask about it when you returned to China, you must not have remembered."
"You! Guan Ju!"
"I really am—"
"never mind!"
Guan Ju's face remained indifferent: "........."
He felt that Duan Ze had become very strange ever since he got together with Wen Xu. Every time he spoke, he would show a resentful tone and expression halfway through, and occasionally he would close his mouth as if he was about to say something.
really.
He forgot his good brothers once he got a wife.
Before, they clearly knew but didn't speak, but now it's as if there's a galaxy between them.
Guan Ju guessed that it was probably related to his fragmented memories.
"Is there anything else?" he asked.
Duan Ze: "Of course, you're in Yangcheng CC right now, right?"
Guan Ju replied, "Yes. Didn't you already know all this?"
Duan Ze: "That's exactly what I wanted to ask! So when do you plan to go back to Suicheng?"
Guan Ju pondered for a moment and said, "I'm here on a business trip for a while. I'll go back soon after your wedding."
Finally, he added to reassure his friend, "I won't miss the chance to be your best man. I'm going back to China anyway, so I'll stop by CC and meet up with Ji Xingchen and the others to talk about work."
Duan remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "Alright then."
The taxi stopped in front of CC Group's office building.
Guan Ju got out of the car and took out his suitcase from the trunk. The sun was shining brightly, and it felt quite warm.
In the WeChat message, Ji Xingchen said he would send someone to pick him up.
With a slight flick of her finger, she replied with "Okay".
After paying, the taxi sped away.
Before the call ended, Duan Ze was still discussing with him where to hold the wedding and how to arrange the process. It was his first time getting married and he was inexperienced, and even a little nervous.
"You're asking me? Do I really have any experience in this area?" Guan Sui asked, carrying her suitcase up the steps.
Duan Ze: "...Why does that sound so familiar?"
"It's probably someone's line."
Guan Ju finally reached the real entrance of the office building, looked left and right, but did not see the person Ji Xingchen had mentioned.
Duan started talking about the wedding and then suddenly brought up his relationship problems.
"Speaking of which—"
"If you haven't thought about anything while you've been abroad all these years, have you encountered any new relationships?"
"For example, someone you're smitten with."
At that moment, a young man wearing a black wool coat over a beige turtleneck sweater stepped out of the elevator.
The other person was tall and slender, with wisps of hair partially obscuring their eyebrows and eyes. They had beautiful features but no trace of an Omega. Their bright and clear eyes looked toward where he was.
In that instant, it felt as if it resonated deep within his soul, and the words Duan Ze had spoken of, "heart-fluttering," echoed in his ears.
Guan Ju's gaze never wavered as she shouted into the Alpha on the phone:
"Duan Ze".
The person on the other end let out a "Hmph".
His expression gradually softened with a rare emotion, his Adam's apple bobbing as he asked, "Do you believe in love at first sight?"
