Chapter 617: Little Thing, Who Are You? How Can I Find You?
Lin Yuan prepared for this meeting for a long time.
He took a shower and put on the new clothes he had just bought.
He stood in front of the mirror, looking left and right, and only went to the agreed meeting place after making sure there was no problem.
The north gate of the school is getting closer and closer.
Lin Yuan looked through the school gate and vaguely saw a car parked across the road.
He was not sure if it was Shang Feiyan's car, but he suddenly became nervous.
I wonder if Shang Feiyan will be satisfied with this meeting?
Lin Yuan walked out of the school gate excitedly and nervously.
After searching the surroundings, his eyes locked onto the tall figure not far away.
Shang Feiyan is even more charming than what he shows in his circle of friends.
He was wearing a black shirt and leaning against the car door in a casual posture. The elegance and dignity of a mature man were fascinating.
Lin Yuan pinched his fingers nervously.
He rubbed his sweaty palms against his pants and encouraged himself in his heart.
Muster up the courage to walk over.
He greeted the team softly: "Hello, Mr. Shang!"
Shang Feiyan looked at him——
Lin Yuan had imagined the meeting scene many times, but it never happened.
Shang Feiyan looked at him strangely.
Surprised, confused... like looking at a stranger.
Before he could figure out the meaning of this look, Shang Feiyan had already said to him: "Who are you?"
Lin Yuan was stunned.
He found that Shang Feiyan didn't recognize him.
"I...I'm Lin Yuan."
He pinched his fingers nervously.
Isn't he as good-looking in person as he is on camera?
Why did Shang Feiyan look at him with such a strange look?
Sudden,
Shang Feiyan's expression changed.
In those deep eyes, there was an expression of disbelief.
It seemed as if he didn't believe that he was Lin Yuan.
"Are you Lin Yuan?"
Shang Feiyan's tone made Lin Yuan feel uneasy.
He clenched his fingers and said, "I'm really Lin Yuan! Haven't we been chatting on WeChat?"
Shang Feiyan's mind was in a mess.
The boy in front of me is Lin Yuan, who is that little thing?
"Is he still angry? That's why he asked you to pretend to be Lin Yuan to meet me?"
This was the only reasonable reason Shang Feiyan could think of.
The little thing is still angry with him,
Ask a classmate to come and send him away.
It must be like this!
"No...I'm really Lin Yuan."
The boy's explanation was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, chilling Shang Feiyan from head to toe.
His face instantly turned extremely ugly.
To prove that I wasn't lying,
Lin Yuan took out his cell phone and opened the WeChat chat dialog box.
He turned the phone screen towards Shang Feiyan and explained a little aggrievedly, "Boss Shang, look, these are all the records of our conversations over the past few days. I haven't deleted them."
"I still have my student ID."
Lin Yuan opened his electronic ID and displayed it in front of him: "If you don't believe me, you can ask Qin Manman. She gave me your contact information."
Shang Feiyan finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
He had the wrong person from the beginning.
It should be the boy he saw in the video, not Lin Yuan as Qin Yuanyuan thought.
After such a big mistake, he lost his little thing.
"Who else is called Lin Yuan?"
Shang Feiyan grabbed Lin Yuan's shoulders uncontrollably and asked, "Tell me, is there anyone else in your school who has the same name as you?"
Lin Yuan was so frightened that he trembled all over.
Meeting his fierce gaze, she hurriedly shook her head: "No... probably gone."
All of Shang Feiyan's anger turned into powerlessness.
"Hold!"
He turned around and kicked the car tire hard, emitting a murderous aura that made people afraid to approach him.
Lin Yuan took a step back and looked at him in panic.
From Shang Feiyan's reaction, he probably figured out the truth of the matter.
The person Shang Feiyan was looking for was not him at all.
Lin Yuan pursed his lips unwillingly, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
He didn't want to be treated as a stand-in, nor did he want to be the victim of misunderstanding.
"Mr. Shang..."
Lin Yuan wanted to say something, trying to make Shang Feiyan think that he was also a good person.
But Shang Feiyan turned around, got into the car, and drove away without stopping.
Lin Yuan stood on the street for a long time, clenching his fists as he looked at the direction the car was leaving.

The hotel monitoring room was filled with low pressure, as if a pair of hands were strangling the throat, making it difficult to breathe.
The manager of the security company looked at the sullen man beside him.
He swallowed hard, mustered up the courage to speak, "Mr. Shang, the surveillance was indeed upgraded on the day you mentioned. The guests coming and going only had their identities registered, and there was no video footage."
"You think I believe such a big hotel doesn't have surveillance?"
"It's real, surveillance is really being upgraded."
The manager tried his best to explain, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Shang Feiyan looked at the surveillance screen. People were coming and going, but there was no sign of the person he was looking for.
For the first time, he hated himself for not learning to paint well.
He couldn't draw what the little thing looked like, not even a photograph.
There are so many students at University A, and without photos or portraits, how is he supposed to find this person?
Shang Feiyan came out of the hotel.
Leaning against the car door, he lit a cigarette and took a deep puff. The spicy taste of the tobacco failed to soothe the irritability in his heart, but instead made him feel empty and misplaced.
He raised his head.
Looking at the straight road in the distance, his eyes were confused.
Little thing, who are you?
How can I find you?
*
The high-speed rail station is bustling with people.
Si Huanyu stood in the square, looking around blankly.
"Handsome guy, would you like a ride?"
A strange voice came to my ears.
Si Huanyu turned his head and saw a taxi driver waiting for passengers soliciting business.
The middle-aged man was very enthusiastic: "Is this your first time in City N? Traveling or visiting relatives? My car is a legitimate one. The meter will start as soon as you get in. I will definitely not cheat you out of your money."
Si Huanyu walked over as if possessed and got into a taxi.
The driver asked, "Where are you going, handsome?"
"I……"
Si Huanyu's voice was stuck in his throat.
He looked blankly at the unfamiliar scenery outside the car window, his mind in a mess.
He came to City N to escape,
I didn't dare stay in Kyoto because I was afraid of too many things, even afraid to face the eyes of my family.
But when he arrived in N City, he didn't dare to look for Si Cheng.
The driver ignored him and asked again, "Where should I take you, handsome boy?"
"I...I'll make a phone call first."
Si Huanyu called Xu Yang.
An hour later,
Xu Yang saw Si Huanyu,
He came forward with a smile and said, "Why didn't you call in advance? I'll drive to the station to pick you up."
"Auntie is pregnant, I don't want to bother you all the time."
Si Huanyu lowered his head, deliberately avoiding Xu Yang's gaze.
He used to be very active, but today's dullness made Xu Yang realize something was wrong: "Huanyu, is there something wrong with you?"
Si Huanyu froze and quickly shook his head: "No... nothing happened."
"I see you're not in the right mood."
In Xu Yang's impression, Si Huanyu is sunny and lively, like a little sun that brings warmth to people.
But today the sun was blocked by dark clouds, and the sky was dark and gloomy.
"It was my first time going to the Third Young Master's house, and I was actually quite nervous."
Xu Yang poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Si Huanyu. "At that time, my relationship with Si Cheng was still unclear, and he treated me like a boss to his assistant. Living in my boss's house, I felt very reserved. If it weren't for your enthusiasm, I might have been reserved all night. You took me out for a midnight snack and lent me clothes. I'll always remember these things."
Si Huanyu's eyes turned red.
He wanted to express the sadness that was suppressed in his heart when faced with Xu Yang's tenderness.
"Aunt, I..."
Si Huanyu's lips trembled violently.
He wanted to speak out several times and tell Xu Yang what happened to him.
But the humiliating experience was completely sealed in his heart under his arrogance.
"I'm just stressed out. I'm graduating soon and have a thesis to write."
Si Huanyu lowered his head, his voice sounding fuzzy: "During the time I've been learning how to manage a company with my uncle, I feel like I'm really terrible. I don't know anything and can't do anything well."
"My aunt said that I had lived too comfortably since I was a child and had never experienced the harshness of society, so I would easily suffer losses."
At that time, Si Huanyu did not take these words to heart. He thought Yan Zeyun was worrying too much.
His arrogance finally cost him.
But the price is too heavy.
Xu Yang thought that Si Huanyu was under too much pressure from work and study, which caused him to have a lot of negative emotions.
He softened his tone and soothed, "People always grow up after experiencing certain things. It's not scary to encounter setbacks, but it's scary to be defeated by them."
Si Huanyu is no longer at the age where he needs guidance from others.
But when I feel confused occasionally, I still long for someone to care about me.
Xu Yang's consolation was a ray of light in the haze, warming his heart.
Si Huanyu returned to the bedroom, lay on the bed, and had his first good sleep in the past few days.
Xu Yang didn't dare to go to the company and stayed in the living room the whole time.
Si Cheng returned home,
Xu Yang told him about Si Huanyu's situation: "I noticed Huanyu's mood was very abnormal. I asked him and he said it was because of too much work pressure. Find a suitable opportunity to persuade him."
"I spoke to Si Lin on the phone this afternoon. He said Si Huanyu has been doing well recently. It shouldn't be a work-related issue."
Xu Yang became even more worried: "But he looks really abnormal. If something hadn't happened in Kyoto, he wouldn't have come here."
Si Cheng frowned: "You're not feeling right... Could it be that you've been heartbroken?"
Xu Yang thinks it is possible.
Si Huanyu's expression doesn't seem to be caused by too much work pressure.
"Did he have a quarrel with Mr. Shang's niece?"
"I'm not quite sure how close these two are to each other."
Si Cheng found that Shang Feiyan had not contacted him for many days.
"I don't know what Mr. Shang is busy with lately. I'll give him a call and ask him later."
Xu Yang: "Just ask quietly, don't make too much noise. Young people like to save face."
Si Cheng laughed: "You are not that old, why do you speak like an elder?"
"Is there?"
Xu Yang blinked: "Maybe I've been with you for too long."
Si Cheng narrowed his eyes: "Are you saying I'm old?"
"No, you are in your prime."
Xu Yang's explanation did not work.
Si Cheng pushed him against the wall and kissed him on the lips punishingly.
*
Shang Feiyan searched for the boy in Kyoto for five days and tried many methods but failed to find him.
In desperation, he came to University A to find Qin Manman, wanting his niece to help him find the little thing.
