Chapter 500: A Belated Encounter
"A seven-centimeter scar, sinuous like a centipede, four emergency rooms...... Every time, every time I can't survive......"
Seeing that Gu Chao's eyes were congested and red, his jaw was tight, and even his fists were trembling uncalmly, Yan Yi suddenly laughed "haha".
probably knew that it would be difficult to keep Wei Lan, his purple face was full of tears, desolate and crazy, "I'm not worthy, you're even less worthy!" β
"I won't give her to you again, never!"
Gu Chao squeezed out these words from between his teeth, his fist was about to fall again, but there was a rush of knocking at the door: "Brother!" Elder brother! No, no! There is no Sister Lan! β
"What's not?" Gu Chao was stunned for a moment, then reacted and grabbed Yanyi's collar suddenly, "You didn't bring her here?" Where did you hide her again? Say? Say! β
Yan Yi reacted more than him, and as soon as he turned over, he overturned Gu Chao who was pressing on his body, and rushed out after opening the door with a mouthful of blood.
Outside the door, Youlan saw Yanyi with a bloody face, and was a little afraid and a little resentful.
Youlan grabbed Yanyi, "You, you bad guy, where did you hide Sister Lan!" β
Youlan still remembers that he was the one who took Wei Lan away in the first place.
Yanyi was anxious, how could she have the heart to explain to her?
Shaking his hand and pushing the person away, Yanyi walked to the balcony where he had rested first.
The trays are all running water, but no one is in sight.
Recalling Wei Lan's smiling face like a flower, Yan Yi realized her abnormality.
How can a person who has been incompetent for two or three years be happy like that because of a dance?
Demagoguery!
She's lying to him!
"Wei Lan, Wei Lan!"
Yan Yi had words in his mouth, and he still couldn't see Wei Lan in the entire hotel, and he was completely panicked.
In the past few years, Wei Lan has gone out very rarely, and she has basically lost touch with the outside world, Yan Yi can't think of where she can go, let alone what she will become if she leaves him.
The streets were full of people, and Yan Yi was anxiously scurrying in the crowd, "Wei Lan! Wei Lan - Have you ever seen a girl, so tall, very beautiful and wearing a cheongsam......
He looked anxious, crazy, and his face was covered with blood, and he dragged people on the street to ask, but passers-by only thought he was crazy, and were in a hurry to push him away, and would not answer his questions at all.
On the other side, Gu Chao had already made arrangements in advance, and when he stumbled on Yanyi, there were Xie Jinghong and You Lan and some of his subordinates looking for Wei Lan outside.
It's just that after searching a group to no avail, Youlan will be so panicked.
Through Yanyi's words and deeds, Gu Chao has already determined that Wei Lan has indeed arrived at the banquet in person today, and he thought that he would be safe in his own territory, but now that he learned the news that Wei Lan disappeared out of thin air, Gu Chao was like a trapped beast in trouble again.
Rushing all the way to the staircase above the hall, Gu Chao searched anxiously, but still didn't see the familiar figure.
"Find! Expand the range to find! 23 Commercial Street, Penang Road ......"
He was making a panic when the door of the hall on the first floor was suddenly pushed open in a dream, and a slightly familiar man rushed in panting.
It's your own people.
The man's eyes wandered around, and when he saw Gu Chao, he quickly pushed away the crowd and approached Gu Chao all the way:
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, people are going in the direction of Hubei Bridge!"
This person was originally a person who was placed in the hall, and when Wei Lan left, he noticed it, and followed him all the way near the Hubei Bridge, and ran back to deliver the news for fear of delaying the business.
"Shanghai, Hubei Bridge?!"
At the same time, on the other side, Yan Yi murmured the same place name as Gu Chao.
When the child was just sent away, Wei Lan was depressed for a while, and once ran barefoot to the Hubei Bridge in the middle of the night, standing on the bridge hysterically crying and shouting......
Hubei Bridge, will it be at Hubei Bridge?
Yan Yi asked rhetorically in his heart, and his feet had already turned around and ran in the direction of the inner harbor.
The Hubei Bridge is four kilometers long and crosses the entire Inner Harbour.
Wei Lan's body is weak, and he won't go so fast, as long as he is faster, faster......
You'll be able to catch up!
"Wei Lan!"
Yanyi ran at great speed, I don't know if it was the reason why the wind poured into his eyes, and the water appeared, moistening the corners of his eyes.
He shouted Wei Lan's name, which was both panicked and heartbreaking.
*
Wei Lan is indeed at the Hubei Bridge.
But it was very different from the delicate appearance when she attended the banquet, her hair was scattered, her top hat had long since disappeared, and her high heels affected her walking speed, and she abandoned it on the side of the road early.
She has a shallow smile on her beautiful face, her hands spread out, sometimes trotting, sometimes turning in circles and strolling forward, and she is not angry when she bumps into pedestrians and is scolded as "crazy" and "sick".
Feeling the wind blowing on his face and body, raising his black hair, Wei Lan smiled heartily.
As Yan Yi said, the laughter was crisp like the chirping of an early morning bird.
Wei Lan just felt happy.
Liberty after removing the shackles and disguise!
It's more open than ever!
She's finally going to be freed!
"Poof...... Hahaha......"
Wei Lan's peach blossom eyes curled up and smiled happily.
Barefoot walked all the way, a pair of delicate and white feet were already bloodstained, she seemed to know no pain, and ran towards the center of Da Qiao without hesitation.
"Wei Lan!"
When Yan Yi found Wei Lan, she had already climbed over the guardrail of the bridge. In the past, large cargo ships passed by the air current, and the harsh wind carried her forward, and her black hair flew in the air, with a kind of messy and desolate beauty.
A kind of beauty that makes Yanyi dare not look at it for a second time.
"Don't move! Don't move...... Stand there and don't move, wait for me to come, wait for me to come! β
Wei Lan turned around and saw Yanyi holding her hands in front of her chest, flustered and at a loss, eager to kneel down with her.
Wei Lan was stunned for a moment, then tilted her head sideways and smiled at him.
When she moved, Yanyi was so shocked that she stood in place and didn't dare to take another step, for fear that if she moved another step, she would fall.
"Wei Lan, obedient...... Hold on to the railing, huh? Hold on to the railing......"
"Yanyi ......"
Wei Lan originally wanted to go alone, but was caught up by Yanyi again.
"I originally wanted to be Mrs. Yan, but I can't......" After a short pause, Wei Lan leaned against the railing and looked calmly at the boats passing on the river in the distance, "I can't do it." β
"But I don't hate you, really, Yanyi."
She pursed her lips and smiled and looked back at Yanyi, her peach blossom eyes bent into a small crystal crescent, warm like light, "I will never forget, when the wound was infected and swollen and I couldn't even speak, the way you accompanied me ......"
"I will remember you, always remember you."
Her eyes were serious, and her eyebrows were clear, as if she wanted to carve the man in front of her into her heart.
From beginning to end, he treated her as a shadow of another person.
He doesn't love her.
but imprisoned her cruelly.
But he was very kind to her......
It's a contradiction.
Wei Lan snorted and looked away.
I don't want to think about right and wrong.
I don't want to continue to be someone else's shadow.
I don't want to engage in meaningless hatred.
However, forgiveness and forgiveness have always come at the cost of torturing oneself.
She was tired and didn't want to repeat it endlessly.
"Don't say it, don't say it...... I'll send you back to Beijing, send you back to Beijing! Child, don't you want to meet that child? Wei Lan, Wei Lan! Look, look, tickets! I've bought all the tickets to Beijing, and I'll send you back, Wei Lan......"
Yan Yi shook his hand and took out the two tickets from his pocket, begging for Wei Lan's forgiveness and begging her to change her mind.
He thought "it's still too late", "there's still a chance", "it's not too late"......
Is it really too late?
How can a heart full of holes and a loss of expectation for life and the world be smoothed by three or two sentences?
"Since you're here, let's say goodbye."
"No...... Don't do this! Yanyi's pupils shrank suddenly, and there was only the fluttering figure in his eyes, "I was wrong, I was wrong...... Wei Lan, the last time, we said okay, this is the last ......"
Yanyi regretted it, regretted it like never before.
He'll send her back, not a few days later, right now, right now!
But as he spoke, he suddenly remembered the expression on his face that night when he said "for the last time", when Wei Lan repeated his words.
A light smile ......
It turned out that the "last time" she retold turned out to be this meaning.
Wei Lan stroked her long hair with a light smile, and said softly: "Goodbye, Yanyi......"
"This time I'm not Mrs. Yan, I'm myself."
"I want to be myself, I want to do what I want to do, I want to pursue freedom and dreams......"
In the dream, the spring is bright, the grass is green, there is her, there is Xiaochen, and Jiaojiao......
When the words fell, before Yan Yi could react, Wei Lan's little hand let go of the railing, and her body fell back, "From now on, forget about me!" β
Her voice was swept up by the wind and drifted in the wind.
The body leaned back, and when he fell, his lips and teeth moved slightly, and his clean eyebrows and eyes smiled at Yanyi like flowers, as if he was fearless of life and death.
The wind was so loud that Yan Yi couldn't hear what she was saying, but she knew what she wanted to express.
She said, "I'm free."
It turns out that death, is it freedom for her?
It turns out that staying by his side makes her so miserable?
So that is decisive, without a trace of remembrance.
"Wei ......" pupils shrank suddenly, Yan Yi staggered forward, stretched out his hand to grab it, someone was one step faster than him.
"Wei Lanβ"
The woman's body fell rapidly, the strong wind lifted her head, and her half-covered and half-exposed face could vaguely see her smiling and closed eyes.
For some reason, that snowy night came to Gu Chao's mind.
The young girl clumsily stepped on the bridge and fell into the abyss because it was slippery......
Thankfully, he grabbed her at that time.
But this time......
The rushing sea splashed with a huge splash, which soon engulfed Wei Lan.
How desperate and disappointed it must be to die without hesitation and fear......
"Wei Lan ββ!"
Gu Chao was broken, and without any consideration, he turned over and crossed the guardrail.
In the eyes of passers-by, they only saw that after the first woman jumped off the Hubei Bridge, two more men in suits and leather shoes climbed over the guardrail and jumped down
"Oh my God! Alarm! Call the police! Someone committed suicide, someone jumped into the sea! β
The timid passer-by screamed in surprise, already frightened by this series of jumping into the sea, and his legs were weak and he couldn't walk.
*
The moment her body fell into the sea, Wei Lan's whole body relaxed, and she let the sea water pluck and roll her into the distance, into the depths.
The pressure forced her mouth to open, and a series of bubbles spat out, and her mouth gradually filled with seawater.
The eardrums tingled and buzzed, and faintly, Wei Lan seemed to hear the sound of deep-sea whales.
Melodious and slightly trembling......
One after another.
I once heard that whales fall into the deep sea, which can nourish all things.
She wanted to ......
Sleep forever.
β¦β¦
The wind whistled in his ears, and Yanyi fell into the water, and the blue water blurred his vision, and he waved his arms, holding his breath to find it.
The inner harbor seems to be calm, but in fact, due to the relationship between the cargo ships, an undercurrent has already formed underwater, and the place where Wei Lan fell into the water has long since lost her shadow.
Yan Yi tried to dive, but the pressure in the water made his veins bruise, and the oxygen gradually ran out, and just when he couldn't hold on anymore, he finally saw the man with his eyes closed, unconscious, but still falling deep underwater.
"Wei ......"
Yan Yi choked on a mouthful of water, his eyes were bloodshot and strong against the pressure of lack of oxygen, and dived closer in the direction of Wei Lan.
Finally holding Wei Lan's hand, Yan Yi pulled her into his arms, wrapped one arm around her waist, and took her away from the deep sea.
"Hey! Dodge! Dodge! β
Yan Yi had barely had time to catch his breath when a rough scream came from behind him, his eyes were swollen and bloodshot, and he turned back to see a small fishing boat rushing towards them with the current at great speed.
"Knock-" There was a muffled sound, and Yanyi snorted.
Caught off guard, too late to dodge, his head hit the boat.
His eyes were black, Yan Yi unconsciously let go, and the person in his arms was swept away by the undercurrent, "Wei ......"
Lan.
Yanyi opened his mouth, and then reached out to fish, but his vision was already dark, and the person lost consciousness.
The authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and many things have already been decided.
Yan Yi and Wei Lan, just as Wei Lan said when she first lost her memory: "I want to eat puffs, is it okay?"
Yanyi replied yes.
He tried to find it, but he couldn't find it.
There is nothing at all in this era, and no matter how hard you work to find it, it is impossible to find it.
In other words, she doesn't belong to him, and no matter how hard she stays, she will never belong to him.
A small piece of sea water stained red with blood, and the fisherman on the boat dragged Yanyi, who had fallen into a coma, onto the boat, and bowed down to look into the water for a while: "Was there another person in the water just now?"
As soon as the words fell, I vaguely saw a sturdy and straight figure quickly pass under the ship, swimming deeper to the bottom of the sea.
"Even if there are eighty percent, they won't be able to get it...... Get this to the hospital! Don't die, this bloody ......" Another fisherman behind him examined the wound on the side of Yanyi's head, shaking his hands and stirring the pulp, trying to get closer to the shore.
β¦β¦
The sea is blue, and the sunlight sloping down from the water, stirring up countless light spots.
The jet-black hair, along with the dark green seaweed, rose and fell under the drive of the water, and the sparse spots of light fell on the woman's face, as if she was a goblin that should have belonged here, and it was an indescribable white.
It's not like the white of the living.
No......
She doesn't belong here.
She's his.
Gu Chao's eyes were bruised, he held his breath and swam over quickly.
He brushed away Wei Lan's long churning hair, clamped her jaw, and pressed her lips against her pale lip flap to take a breath.
The strong arm clasped Wei Lan's waist and lifted her leg socket, struggling to swim towards the sea.
Wei Lan, I'm here.
I'm here Wei Lan, don't be afraid, don't be afraid...... I'll take you home......
"Wei Lan ......" Gu Chao hugged Wei Lan and was pushed to the shore by the waves, "Wei Lan, I'm here." β
I'm sorry everyone, but I may be one of the people who have a lot of tears, crying while writing......
Brother Chao has been looking for Wei Lan for four years, and he is obviously only one step away, if he comes one step earlier, they will be able to meet.
