Zhou Yanan was still a little dazed in the first few days when she arrived in New York, even though Rong Zheng had already helped her settle everything and specially found a friend here to take care of her. It just so happened that this friend was a man, and he was still a golden bachelor, Zhou Yanan once suspected that Rong Zheng was giving her a blind date in disguise.

However, this man is thoughtful and well-mannered, and he looks like he is not rich but expensive, so he is a good object. More importantly, he is a Chinese, a few years older than her, surnamed Jing, called Jing Heng, and Zhou Yanan calls him Brother Jing.

During her time in the United States, he helped her make proper arrangements, which saved her a lot of thought, and her spoken language was very poor, and she would be uneasy if she really went out alone, and no one around her.

Since he had already come, Zhou Yanan thought that he had come to travel and relax, and he was not in a hurry to find Chen Nanmu's traces that had left here. She wanted to make herself look calmer, and in her heart she saw this trip as a tour, and had no other intentions.

About ten days later, she received an email with an address on it, and a photograph of the ruins of a house, from which there was a kind of gloom.

The day after receiving the photo, Zhou Yanan asked Jing Heng to take her to the place on the photo.

It is a small detached villa with neighbors all at a great distance, not disturbing each other, not even visible to the naked eye. Jing Heng is an interesting person, and he only waits for her in the car.

There was nothing left here, only a foundation, some bricks and sand, and a few worn-out planks, and nothing else, let alone a trace of Chen Nanmu. She stood straight in front of the ruins and took a deep breath, the air was fresh and clean. My heart also became cold.

Her eyes wandered through the ruins, as if she were looking for something, and for a moment she smiled to herself, laughing at herself, for it had been almost four years since the incident, and could it be that she still expected to see a corner of his clothes here?

What's even funnier is that after listening to Zhou Yanqing's words, she actually had a trace of hope in her heart, thinking that he was still alive in this world. The most she did in the past ten days was shopping, walking through the streets of New York, big and small, and occasionally looking back and not wanting to miss anyone who passed her.

Her favorite thing is the corner, always wondering if it will be possible to go around the next corner. They would meet suddenly, and then they would be surprised and say, long time no see.

But she walked a lot of streets and walked many corners, but she never met Chen Nanmu, not even anyone who looked like him, not a single one.

Now standing in the place where he was buried, Zhou Yanan has a very strong feeling, that is, he is really no longer in this world, she will never meet him suddenly, no matter how many corners she walks, he will never suddenly appear in front of her eyes.

Tears fell without warning, and then began to spiral out of control, becoming more and more ferocious. This is even more sad than the moment I heard the news of his death.

It is better to live than to die, even if it is impossible for them to be together. Then she also hopes that he can live well, and occasionally when he thinks about it, she can see if he is doing well.

Originally, Chen Nanmu may not be able to live in Zhou Yanan's heart all the time, but now, this person is probably going to live in his heart for a lifetime.

In fact, she especially wanted to know what happened in the first place and why there was an explosion. Was it an accident, or was it man-made.

Just as she was wandering, a man's voice suddenly came from behind her, low and deep, and said, "Who are you, why are you here?"

Zhou Yanan was slightly stunned when she heard the voice, and for a moment, she thought it was Chen Nanmu. Obviously, the voice was not like it, but she still gave a glimmer of hope.

Just turn your head and see the people coming, how much hope there is, how much disappointment.

She smiled and said, "I'm no one, just a passerby, passing by to see." She lowered her eyes and decided to leave.

However. The moment she walked past him, she suddenly seemed to think of something, and couldn't help but stop, glanced sideways at him, squinted her eyes, and then retreated to her original position, looked at him, and asked, "Who are you? and why are you here?"

He looked at her deeply, with an indelible sadness in his eyes, and said, "I am the owner of this house." ”

Zhou Yanan's eyes widened when she heard this, the man had already walked past her, she paused for a few seconds, quickly followed, and said, "What? Master? How is it possible? The news says that everyone in the house is dead, my aunt's family, including her two children, is dead, this house belongs to my aunt, who are you?"

He glanced at her, frowned slightly, looked up and down for a while, and said, "You said Zhou Chan is your aunt?"

"Yes. She nodded vigorously, and then as if she had thought of something, she suddenly walked up to him, and said cautiously, "You are my uncle?"

His eyes moved obviously, Zhou Yanan knew that she had guessed correctly, she smiled, and even excitedly reached out and grabbed his wrist, jumped in place, and said, "You are really my uncle!

However, Zhou Yanan's excitement did not exceed ten seconds, Mu Sen poured a basin of cold water on her, he probably saw what her excitement was, so according to this point, the hope in her heart was shattered, he said: "Only me and the two children are still alive, is this worth being happy about?"

The smile on Zhou Yanan's face immediately froze, and the hand holding him also let go, and he took a step back, and the atmosphere was slightly condensed. After a while, she came back to her senses, smiled dryly, and said, "I'm sorry, I just thought it was ......."

"I know, you think they should all be alive when you see me, and I would think the same if it were me. But no, Zhou Chan finally told me that she never ...... She never let go of Chen Nanmu, and then she couldn't let go of it in this life, so she went back. ”

I watched as she ran back and entered the gate, and in a moment the house blew up. ”

Zhou Yanan moved his mouth and said with great difficulty: "Chen Nanmu is also inside." ”

"Yes, he didn't come out at all, he just told us to leave immediately. Mu Sen smiled bitterly and said, "He is probably going to kill himself and keep us safe, but does he know that if he uses this method, even if Zhou Chan is willing to live, she will never be well." ”

Zhou Yanan turned around slowly, facing the ruins again, and the picture of Chen Nanmu and Zhou Chan with Zhou Chan in his mind inexplicably appeared in his mind, tears fell, but the corners of his lips rose slightly. She thought that they would definitely hug each other firmly before they died, so that even if they died, they would never be separated.

In this way, they can be regarded as together forever, and no one will separate them again, and they will not be separated. Zhou Yanan's tears became more and more fierce, but he still stubbornly maintained a smiling expression, and said silently in his heart: Bless you. Sincere blessings.

No one will ever know what Zhou Chan and Chen Nanmu said and did in the last moments. Those in the know will think that the two of them, who love each other deeply, will definitely hold each other firmly before they die, and then face death together.

At least everyone believes it's the truth. But what the real truth is, no one will ever know.

I'm afraid no one would have imagined that at the moment of the explosion, Zhou Chan only walked to the door of the room, and the door was closed, when she held the doorknob, boom, her world was destroyed, before they died, they didn't see each other, only a door apart, and they didn't even say a word.

Obviously, they died together, but Chen Nanmu wouldn't know. He thought the family was gone.

There are so many people on Huangquan Road, what is the probability of them meeting each other? Can we meet again and say a word before crossing the Naihe Bridge? Who knows.

Later, Zhou Yanan followed Mu Sen to his other house, and the two children were still growing up happily, as if Zhou Chan's departure did not have much impact. In the process of contacting them, Zhou Yanan knew that Mu Sen told a very common lie, that is, your mother went to a far away place.

When they grow up, they will understand slowly.

Because of these two children, Zhou Yanan stayed there for more than half a month, after that incident. The Mussen family changed their name and continued to live in New York, with no plans to leave. Of course, it was Mu Sen who was reluctant to leave, he felt that Zhou Chan was still here, so he didn't want to leave.

When he had time, he would stop at the place where they were buried.

Zhou Yanan was fine in the United States for a few days, but when she returned to Luancheng for some reason, she suddenly became ill, she had a cold and fever, and she didn't get better over and over again, and she herself was very uncomfortable.

She talked about everything in the United States, drank all the water in the cup, and the dumplings in Rong Zheng's wrap were also good.

"This time, you should be dead, right?" Rong Zheng handed her the dumplings, which was cold-blooded and ruthless.

Zhou Yanan glared at him, put down the cup in his hand, did not take the bowl in his hand, only pointed to the kitchen door, and said, "Do you have any sympathy?"

"My sympathy is only for the person who should use it, I am quite sympathetic to you, your illness should not be because of Chen Nanmu, or you have some bad luck on your body in New York, do you want me to invite a mage or something to do a Dharma service for you." ”

"Phew, the dog can't spit ivory out of his mouth. ”

The two went out of the kitchen back and forth, Rong Zheng put the bowl and chopsticks on the dining table, and went in again to get the honey water out and sat beside her. said: "Seriously, go to the hospital for a check-up, although it's just a cold and fever, but if a minor illness drags on for a long time, it becomes a major illness." ”

"You curse me. "She ate two dumplings and was a little overwhelmed.

"No, I care about you. You don't know how good you are. ”

She put down the spoon, waved her hand, and said, "I know, my mother has already told me today, you think I want to catch a cold, do you know how uncomfortable I am? Cheap for you. ”

As she spoke, she moved the bowl in front of him, and then stood up and prepared to go back to her room.

Rong Zheng only sighed, but didn't say much.

The next day, Zhou Yanan went to the hospital and had a full body examination.

Cheng Xunxun came out of the brain doctor's office, Mi Lai comforted her, and said with a smile: "Oh, don't listen to what the doctor says, doctors like to make things serious, don't you think about those amnesiac people on TV in the end." People are worse than you, and this brain hit and you recovered. You can too, you have to believe in miracles. ”

Cheng Xunxun smiled and said, "Well, I believe in miracles, so should I hit the wall now and see if I can remember?" You also said that it was a TV series, and I am not a person in a TV series, if I am the protagonist in it, I will not worry at all." ”

Mi Lai smiled and said, "Take your time, the doctor also said that you can't rush it." ”

She didn't say anything, this kind of thing really can't be rushed, even if it's urgent, it's useless, if she can't remember, she can't even think of it, she even tried hypnosis, but there are only some fragments and vague fragments, and things can't be connected.

But she didn't give up.

When she arrived at the parking lot, Cheng Xunxun's car had just driven out of the parking space, and a car going straight crashed into the front of her car. She's slow, and it's not her fault.

"What's the matter? This person is driving without eyes or what? This can be hit!" Mi Lai sat in the co-pilot, she was surprised far more than Cheng Xun. I immediately unbuckled my seat belt and got out of the car, and after looking at the situation, I began to question.

Cheng Xunxun immediately followed and got out of the car, and he could feel that the collision was not light in the car, and when Cheng Xunxun went to see the condition of the car, the person who had apologized to Mi Lai suddenly pounced. With a thick nasal voice, he exclaimed, "It's you!"

She hugged her neck excitedly, her eyes were red, and she sniffed, "I didn't expect to meet you here." ”

Cheng Xunxun glanced her up and down, looking at her excited look, Cheng Xunxun probably knew that this should be someone she knew in the past.

A few minutes later, the two of them sat in the café, and Zhou Yanan could only drink hot water because of a cold. Cheng Xunxi drank black coffee, and Zhou Yanan remembered that she used to prefer sweet.

Zhou Yanan said: "You have amnesia, even your habits are different, how bitter black coffee is, you don't add sugar." ”

Cheng Xunxun took a sip, the expression on his face did not change, and said, "Really, then I used to like sweets?"

"yes, I love it. But you don't have anything to do with what you eat, and you're happy when you have something delicious. ”

"Yes, I used to be really content, and I must be very happy in this life. She smiled and took another sip, her tongue bitter.

In fact, she doesn't like to eat bitter things, she likes bitter with a little sweetness, and this pure black coffee, no matter how much sugar is added, is only bitter, not a little sweet.

The two hadn't seen each other for years. I have never been in touch, and Cheng Xunxun has amnesia again, so there will be a sense of strangeness, and I don't know what to say for a while. I haven't seen this sentence for a long time, and when used at the moment, only Zhou Yanan himself is very emotional.

Mi Lai went to deal with the car.

The two were relatively speechless, each thinking about their own things, Zhou Yanan turned the cup in his hand, took a sip of hot water, and moistened his throat.

"Last time, my uncle told me that you were back, but you left again. I really didn't expect to meet you here, and still in such a way, you tell me the cost of this car. I'll pay for it. When I was just driving, I sneezed, and I panicked and hit you, but luckily it was you. She smiled slightly, her eyes full of friendliness.

After speaking, he suddenly seemed to think of something, looked sorry, and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself to you." My name is Zhou Yanan, I used to be your niece, but now I am a friend. ”

Cheng Xunxun raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I didn't expect our relationship to be so complicated, I think you should know a lot of things about me, I'm very curious about my past." ”

She's straight to the point, she doesn't talk much nonsense, she's going to be here, and she's here for the past.

Zhou Yanan didn't hide much, and said: "The relationship between you and Zhou Yanqing, in fact, I don't know very well, if you want to know, I can tell you some things I know." ”

"Well, I'm willing to listen, I want to know about my past, whether it's important or not, I'm willing to listen. She looked at her with burning eyes, her eyes full of anticipation.

Cheng Xunxun believes that the relationship between them should be very good. Just like the previous Xu Ma. Only people who have a good relationship with her will meet such a big reaction on the road.

Cheng Xunshun and Zhou Yanan sat in the café together until nightfall, and Zhou Yanan's storytelling was much more interesting than Xu's mother. Cheng Xunxun was a little indifferent at first, but slowly she also participated, and the two went back and forth and talked happily.

Cheng Xunxun was about to invite her to dinner, and as soon as she walked out of the door of the café, Cheng Xunxun's rang, it was Zhou Yanqing's call.

"Where?"

Cheng Xunxun said: "I'm outside, I'm going to have dinner with someone, what's wrong?

"yes, I'm cooking at home, do you want to come back?" he said clearly.

Zhou Yanan coughed several times. Cheng Xunxun glanced at her, thought about it, and said, "Okay, it's rare for you to come back to cook when you're so busy, of course I must come back, you wait for me." ”

"Okay. ”

She hung up the phone, turned back to Zhou Yanan and said, "Why don't we make an appointment another day, I see that you are not feeling well, I won't drag you anymore, you go back and rest early." ”

Her cheeks were abnormally red, she nodded with a smile, and said, "It's okay, I have a serious cold and fever, and I don't want to infect you." ”

After the two exchanged numbers, they went home separately.

Cheng Xunchun returned home, the light was soft, quite homely, these days, Zhou Yanqing would come over two or three times a week. The relationship between the two is very harmonious on the surface.

Cheng Xunxun put down the keys and bag in his hand, walked over lightly, and then reached out to cover his eyes, and said with a smile: "Guess who I am?"

"Don't make a fuss. He raised his hand and tore her hand away, turned back and pecked her in the mouth when she was unsuspected, and said, "Don't get in my way here, I'll be able to eat soon." ”

Cheng Xunxun took his arm and said, "Guess who I met today." She lowered her head slightly, watching him expertly prepare the dishes.

"Who?"

"Zhou Yanan. ”

Zhou Yanqing's movements in his hand paused, Yu Guang glanced at her, and said with a smile: "Oh?"

"I didn't think I had such a big niece before. ”

"You had a good relationship before, and she's back?"

Cheng Xunxun looked at him sideways and said, "I don't know, I met her in the hospital, she also hit my car, I don't have a car, tomorrow you have the opportunity to personally send me to work." ”

She leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Zhou Yanan said that you used to like me very much, didn't you?"

Zhou Yanqing's brows frowned slightly, and the hand holding the kitchen knife tightened. Then he put the kitchen knife aside and reached out and wrapped it around her waist.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled: "How much I like you, don't you feel it?"

Cheng Xunxun looked at him, reached out and touched his lips, "Then why did you take away the Tang family's property?"

Zhou Yanqing pursed her lips slightly, was silent for a moment, raised her hand and stroked the hair on her forehead, and said, "What are you doing in the hospital today?"

"Oh, I accompanied Mi Lai to see the gynecology department, her aunt hasn't been here for a long time, anyway, I will accompany her when I have time. ”

He quietly changed the topic, and Cheng Xunxun also ripped his hand away. said: "I went to the hospital, I will take a shower first, and I will not disturb you to cook." ”

"Well, hurry up, you'll be able to eat it right away. ”

"Got it. Cheng Xunxun waved his hand.

Zhou Yanqing's craftsmanship is excellent, and the simple three dishes are like hotel-level dishes. Cheng Xunxun praised as he spoke.

"Do you want to continue the work over there?"

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" she looked up, glanced at him, and then seemed to think of something, holding her chin in one hand, and said with a smile, "Oh, are you afraid that I will go undercover with you?"

"No, I'm afraid that you will be embarrassed, after all, I am an opponent with Chen Yujian, and you are working by his side and with me, it is not good for you to be caught in the middle like this, in case, there is any conflict in business, I don't want you to get involved." "I am afraid that the grievances between Zhou Yanqing and Chen Yujian will not be resolved, just like the resentments that are entangled in the hearts of Song Peili and He Jiali, I am afraid that they will not be able to let go of it in this life.

"So?" Cheng Xunxun said, holding his chin and smiling.

"So, I guess you can leave the summit. ”

"Just stay at home, waiting for you to come every day? Besides, how can I live without a salary?"

Zhou Yanqing smiled and said, "The money I earned is not enough to support you?"

Cheng Xunxun shook his head, tilted his head, his eyes rolled, as if he was thinking of some kind of idea, and said, "In this way, I am too much like a second wife." Otherwise, I'll help you take care of your son, so that I can have something to do all day long, and I won't be bored, and if you give me money, I'll spend it on your son, so that I can be at ease, what do you think?"

She grinned. It seems that he has come up with a particularly good idea, and he looks proud.

"Don't you dislike Arnold?"

"That's because I didn't want to be a before, but now that I think about it, I want to snatch you back, then your son, I also want to snatch it back from Anyu's hands. Let your son call me Mommy. ”
