White City Center.

High-rise buildings are towering, luxury cars are everywhere, and there is a lot of extravagance of money everywhere.

In the top-floor office of Cheng's Group, in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the man is dressed in a black suit, with a long and straight figure, cold eyebrows and eyes, and an elegant temperament.

The man was on the phone, and his demeanor was indescribably elegant and noble.

It's just that the coldness between his eyebrows and eyes makes it difficult for him to get close.

And so it is.

He has a superior appearance, and countless admirers are fascinated by him, but no one can really enter his inner world.

-

This is the fourth phone call Cheng Youyang made to Cheng Ruan today.

As expected, Cheng Ruan still didn't answer.

Cheng Youyang pursed her lips, she couldn't hide her loneliness between her eyebrows and eyes, she hadn't forgiven him yet, he knew.

"Mr. Cheng, news just came from the hospital, Wu ......"

At this time, the assistant came in and saw that Cheng Youyang's face was not good-looking, and he stopped talking, not knowing whether to say anything about their 'fake sister' of Mr. Cheng.

The man glanced at him, and his tone was not wavering, "Say." ”

The assistant pushed the eyes on the bridge of his nose and said, "That's it...... Miss Wu Youyi sneaked out of the ward last night and didn't return overnight, and the hospital only found it this morning, and someone was sent to look for it. ”

Cheng Youyang frowned slightly, "I sneaked out last night, and now I found out?" ”

"I found it today when the nurse was delivering food."

The man raised his hand and kneaded his eyebrows, his expression tired and cold, without any expression.

Seeing that Cheng Youyang didn't speak, the assistant said bluntly: "I'm afraid that something will happen to the hospital, so I want to invite you over." ”

Cheng Youyang glanced at the phone with slightly lowered eyes, not knowing what he was measuring, and after a moment, he hummed, "I know." ”

The voice is not shallow or light.

The assistant stood in the distance, feeling that their thoughts were more difficult to guess than that of the old Mr. Cheng.

The assistant tried to test his meaning: "What about the afternoon meeting?" ”

Cheng Youyang: "It's going to be held as usual." ”

"Yes."

-

When did his patience and affection for Cheng Youyi start to slowly consume, and Cheng Youyang has not studied it deeply.

Presumably before returning home.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to leave his 'sister' who had been hurt for so many years abroad alone.

From the time Cheng Youyi first showed his malice towards Cheng Ruan when he was a child, he began to understand that his 'sister' had gone astray.

He had the opportunity to correct Cheng Youyi's character, but he didn't.

Why?

He couldn't tell.

But he now recognizes a fact:

- In the time he has been with Cheng Youyi for so many years, there is nothing worth remembering him, and if he doesn't think about it, he will even forget the mode of getting along with her.

- And about Cheng Ruan, whether it was when he was a child or after returning to China, he can remember the details of his relationship with her clearly.

So, there are some things that have been answered from the beginning.

-

Sometimes, he would also imagine if Cheng Ruan and Cheng Youyi were not transferred......

If Cheng Ruan was his sister from the beginning, would he also dote on Cheng Ruan in the same way?

He thought about it for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion:

- This question is not valid.

Because.

Cheng Ruan is always kind.

She, like their mother, is always kind and sunny.

He is always the only one who has done wrong.

-

The man returned to the desk, unbuttoned his suit with his long fingers, pondered for a moment, opened the WeChat chat box with Cheng Ruan, and entered with his voice:

"Ruan Ruan, grandpa has been sick in the past two days, if you are willing to go back to the old house with me to see him, you will call me back, if you are unwilling...... It doesn't matter. ”

After the message was sent, Cheng Youyang waited for a while, but did not wait for Cheng Ruan to reply to the message.

He thought that this time it would be the same as before, and the message he sent her was lost.

Just as he was about to put his phone down.

The reply from there:

"I'm not going."

Cheng Youyang paused when he got up, his fingers paused, and then he quickly typed out a line:

"It's been a long time since you've seen each other, do you have time to come out and meet?"

After waiting for about a minute, he replied:

"I'm sorry, my brother returned to China today, I just picked him up at the airport, I have to accompany him to a big dinner, I don't have time to pay attention to idlers."

Cheng Youyang stared at the word 'my brother' on the screen and didn't move for a long time.

"Your brother ......"

He typed and deleted, wanting to ask where Cheng Ruan's brother came from besides him.

But I don't know how to speak.

When he was entangled, he unconsciously clicked into Cheng Ruan's circle of friends, and she found that just now, Cheng Ruan posted a message.

It's a photo of her and others.

In the photo, she poses with two men.

The person on Cheng Ruan's right is Xu Yunjie, and Xu Yunjie is still the same as before, not smiling outside.

Cheng Youyang's gaze swept over Xu Yunjie, and he didn't stay long, turning to the man standing on Cheng Ruan's left.

The man has broad shoulders and long legs, is dressed in a black jacket, has an outstanding appearance, and a pair of peach blossom eyes are particularly eye-catching.

The smile on his lips was wanton, he didn't care about Xu Yunjie's reaction at all, his long arms were generously placed on Cheng Ruan's shoulders, and his upper body was also tilted towards her, Cheng Ruan was disgusted on the surface, but his eyes were full of smiles.

Two people, intimate.

Without enlarging the photo, Cheng Youyang recognized the person in the photo at a glance.

The second young master of the Gu family.

Gu Shaosui.

Cheng Ruan shouted Gu Shao's brother?

Cheng Youyang was stunned, and a wry smile slowly spread on his lips.

He was still absent too much.

All these years, he knew almost nothing about her.

-

"Mr. Cheng......"

When the assistant hurried into the office, he happened to see that Mr. Cheng, who had always been angry, seemed to have a look called self-deprecation on his face.

The assistant stopped his footsteps, a little afraid to go forward, but remembering the phone call he had just received, he swallowed his saliva nervously, gritted his teeth, and said in one breath:

"Mr. Cheng, there's an accident at the hospital! Miss Youyi fell downstairs, and her body was found from the back garden, please mourn. ”

-

"The person was found by the cleaners an hour ago, and when he found it, the deceased was face down, his flesh and blood were blurred, his limbs were stiff, and according to preliminary speculation, the person probably fell from the upper floor between 10 and 12 o'clock last night."

The back garden of the hospital, because no one cleaned it, the garden was covered with a thick layer of snow.

In the center of the snow, a large area of bright red, like a delicate Manzhu sand tiger, blooms from the center to all sides.

Gorgeous and eerie.

The snow is white and the wind is biting.

Cheng Youyang came in a hurry, his clothes were thin, and under the cold wind, his fingers were frozen and he lost consciousness.

The person who spoke to him was the policewoman in charge of the case of Cheng Youyi's death from the building.

"We found the footprints of the deceased on the rooftop, and there were only footprints of the deceased on the rooftop. After obtaining surveillance and the testimony of doctors and nurses, we initially believe that the deceased climbed onto the roof in a state of insanity, fell and fell from the building. ”

The policewoman's tone was calm and organized, and there were no loopholes in her logic, and she defined Cheng Youyi's death as an accident in a few words.

Cheng Youyang glanced at the policewoman lightly, and her eyes were a little colder than the snow.

He fixed his gaze for two seconds and asked her, "I heard that your surname is Yan, and you are a member of the Yan family?" ”

The policewoman's expression was indifferent, with a businesslike attitude, and when she heard this, her expression remained unchanged and said, "I am a policeman." ”

Cheng Youyang stared at her closely: "What does Yan Mo have to do with you?" ”

The policewoman looked at him for a second, looked away without any special reaction, and said no more.

-

What happened to Cheng Youyi's death, there was an answer to the matter when the Yan family intervened in this matter.

Cheng Youyang stood in the snow for a long time.

Before leaving, he looked up at the location of the rooftop.

The floor is not too high, and with the snow cushion, if you find it in time, it will not kill people.

The back garden is often passed by, but the body is found by a cleaner......

It's ridiculous.

-

Cheng Youyang later went to the funeral home to see Cheng Youyi for the last time.

"It's me who didn't teach you well."

He looked at the already cold and stiff corpse, and his heart was so numb that he had no sorrow or joy.

From the day Cheng Rongshan had a car accident, he knew that he would come sooner or later.

"I have an unshirkable responsibility to get to where I am today, if I am not so used to you, if I can teach you to take responsibility......"

"It's too late to say anything. Get a good night's sleep, and be a good person in the next life. Don't meet an older brother like me again. ”

-

That night, after Cheng Youyang dealt with Cheng Youyi's funeral, he returned to Cheng's house.

The servants of the Cheng family were all dismissed by Cheng Ruan.

Huge villa, not a single light on.

Cheng Youyang originally came back to pack Cheng Youyi's relics, but when he was passing through Ruan's room on the way, he paused and walked in.

He rarely came to Cheng Ruan's room.

First, because Cheng Rongshan did not allow him to get too close to Cheng Ruan.

The second is because the closer he gets to Cheng Ruan, the more Cheng Youyi will try his best to bully Cheng Ruan.

Third, it was because Cheng Ruan later became extremely repulsive to him.

There were many dolls on the bed in Cheng Ruan's room, and Cheng Youyang leaned over to pick up one of them.

The moonlight leaked in and sprinkled on the man's shoulder, coating a faint layer of loneliness.

At this moment, Cheng Youyang suddenly wanted to know what Cheng Ruan was doing, he opened the circle of friends on his mobile phone and saw that Cheng Ruan had just posted a news more than twenty minutes ago.

The venue was in the West Street Bar, the atmosphere was noisy, and Cheng Ruan was drinking with Gu Shaosui while singing loudly without any image.

The singing is really not good......

Staring at the girl's smile in the video, Cheng You's eyebrows gradually bloomed with warmth.

-

The snow is pressing, everything is silent, and even time is slowing down.

Huge villa, cold and quiet. The lonely figure of the man was cast on the cold floor, dragging a long shadow.

Bustling city, thousands of lights.

There was none left for him.
