Yu Yunzhi rested at home for a day, practiced "lover" for a while, and started packing her luggage in the afternoon to go home. Tang Suihe would pick her up later.
Yu Luoyan won't go back with her; she'll go back tomorrow. She has some things to take care of at the company, so she asked Yu Yunzhi to take Jiang Jiang back first today.
Last night, when Yu Yunzhi asked Shao Wenyan about the card, he told Yu Yunzhi that he only had this one card, but it wasn't very valuable to him.
Yu Yunzhi asked him if he would owe a big favor, and Shao Wenyan said that because he had helped his boss with something before, the boss gave it to him on his own initiative, and he couldn't refuse, and he didn't need the card.
Yu Yunzhi remembered that the dishes he made were indeed delicious, so he made them himself when he wanted to eat them. It seemed that he didn't really need the card, so he accepted it.
The matter of the card was dropped, but Yu Yunzhi knew it was definitely not as simple as Shao Wenyan had made it out to be.
"I've packed everything Jiang Jiang needs. Have you packed your luggage yet?"
At six o'clock in the evening, Yu Luoyan arrived at Yu Yun's house with Jiang Jiang on time.
Jiang Jiang only has a small suitcase. She will only stay at home for a maximum of three days, so she doesn't need to bring too much stuff. There are also some things that Jiang Jiang left behind at home.
"I'm all packed. Brother Tang will pick us up at 6:30." Yu Yunzhi had a lot of luggage, because she also had a large suitcase to pack local specialties.
There were other odds and ends, which filled another large box.
"Here, these are some snacks for your journey, and Jiangjiang's milk is also in here."
Yu Luoyan carried Jiang Jiang's little schoolbag and handed it to Yu Yunzhi.
"Okay, let's leave it here for now. It'll be a while before Brother Tang arrives."
Yu Luoyan placed the small schoolbag on Yu Yunzhi's suitcase, afraid that her younger sister might forget it at home.
"Jiang Jiang, go back and listen to your aunt and grandma, okay? Mommy will go back tomorrow."
"Okay~ Jiang Jiang will be a good girl." Little Jiang Jiang said in her childish voice, and patted her little chest like a little adult.
Yu Yunzhi glanced at his phone; Tang Suihe had arrived.
"Let's go, sis, Brother Tang is here."
"Okay, take Jiang Jiang downstairs first, and I'll check again."
Yu Yunzhi pushed his two suitcases and walked ahead with Jiang Jiang. Yu Luoyan checked the room again to make sure the water and electricity were turned off before leaving.
Downstairs, Tang Suihe had already opened the trunk. As soon as Yu Yunzhi and the others came out, Tang Suihe went up to them and took the suitcase from their hands.
"You guys get in the car first, I'll take care of the tidying up," Tang Suihe said.
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Tang." Yu Yunzhi helped Jiang Jiang into the car and sat her down before getting in himself.
Yu Luoyan didn't get on; she just stood outside the car and helped Tang Suihe put Jiang Jiang's luggage away.
After Tang Suihe got into the car and was seated, ready to depart, Yu Yunzhi said, "Sister, you should go back now! We'll be leaving first."
"Okay, let's go. I've already told Mom and Dad that you should leave now and you'll be home in about two hours."
"Goodbye, Sister Yan." Tang Suihe also politely said goodbye to Yu Luoyan.
"Goodbye, Mommy~" Jiang Jiang poked her little head out from the side, sitting in the car seat, waving her two little paws.
"Bye-bye~" The car door slowly closed, and Yu Luoyan watched Yu Yunzhi's car leave before walking towards home.
Perhaps because of the cold weather, no one wanted to go out, and there were hardly any people on the streets.
Yu Luoyan walked alone on the desolate path. In this rare moment of leisure, she felt inexplicably empty inside.
When Yu Luoyan arrived at her front door, she found someone standing there.
Yu Luoyan didn't need to get close to know it was Jiang Yan. She had seen this back view for more than ten years, how could she not recognize him?
Hearing footsteps behind him, Jiang Yan quickly turned around.
"Yan Yan..."
Yu Luoyan frowned. "What are you doing here? Jiang Jiang isn't home."
"I...I didn't come to see Jiang Jiang, I came to find you." Seeing Yu Luoyan frown, Jiang Yan said hesitantly.
"What do you want?" Upon hearing this, Yu Luoyan frowned even more deeply.
"I bought you your favorite egg waffles." Only then did Yu Luoyan notice that Jiang Yan was carrying a bag.
This flavor of egg waffles is only available near their university and is very popular with students. You have to queue up early to buy them, and the vendors only supply a limited amount each day, so they'll be sold out if you go too late.
When Yu Luoyan was in college, she loved to eat. When she was with Jiang Yangang, he would queue up every day to buy her favorite egg waffles and deliver them to her dormitory.
At the time, Yu Luoyan's roommates all envied her for finding such a good boyfriend. Not only was he handsome, but he was also so affectionate.
In the years immediately following graduation, Yu Luoyan craved egg waffles. Jiang Yan, who was busy with his startup at the time, would still make time to buy them for her.
The restaurant owners all knew this young man, but for some reason, Yu Luoyan never ate there again in the following years.
Maybe she's too busy, so busy that she's forgotten what she likes...
Yu Luoyan glanced at the egg waffle in Jiang Yan's hand, "No need, I don't like them anymore."
Jiang Yan's outstretched hand froze in place. After a moment, he composed himself and said, "What do you want to eat? I'll go buy it for you."
Yu Luoyan: "No need, I've already eaten, no need to trouble yourself."
Jiang Yan was caught in a dilemma, neither advancing nor retreating. Yu Luoyan then asked, "What brings you here today?"
"It's nothing. I was just passing by our school and saw this egg waffle stand. I remembered you loved eating them in college, so I thought I'd buy you some..."
"No need, you can go back if there's nothing else. Jiang Jiang isn't home these days, but I'll ask you to come see her when she gets back."
Yu Luoyan gave a veiled order to leave, "Is there anything else? If not, please make way, I need to go in."
"It's nothing, it's nothing." Jiang Yan was a little at a loss. He happened to be blocking Yu Luoyan's doorway, so he hurriedly moved aside to make way.
As Yu Luoyan entered the room by fingerprint and was about to close the door, Jiang Yan said, "Yan Yan, I...I'll leave this at the door for you. You can have a couple of pieces to eat if you get hungry tonight..."
Yu Luoyan didn't say anything and simply closed the door.
Jiang Yan stared blankly at the closed door in front of him, then squatted down against the door in a sorry state and burst into tears.
Yan Yan would never look at him with such a cold gaze. Whenever he came home, no matter how late it was, Yan Yan would always leave a light on for him and would only go back to her room to sleep after seeing him return home safely.
Without Jiang Jiang, he can't even get into his own house...
Yu Luoyan didn't have time to pay attention to Jiang Yan at the door; she had more important things to do now: pack her luggage for going home tomorrow.
Today I only had time to tidy up for Jiang Jiang; I didn't even have time to tidy up for myself.
Since Yu Luoyan and the others won't be home tomorrow, Aunt Li gave Yu Luoyan the day off today so she could go home as well.
The next morning, as Yu Luoyan hurriedly prepared to leave for the company, she kicked an egg waffle that was on the ground when she opened the door.
