Listening to her words, the dryness in Chen Jiayu's throat magnified countless times, as if a huge raw walnut was blocked inside. Astringency, swelling, pain, and bitterness are intertwined.

Chen Jiayu wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

Even if he knew what to say, he was already trembling and couldn't speak.

After a while, he finally squeezed out a sentence from the depths of his throat.

"Don't say these stupid things, this time it will definitely be over, it will be ......."

Before the rest of the words could be spoken, at this moment, not far away, the minute hand on the tall bell tower, after a slow movement, made a slight "click" sound, and finally came to the position of 12, overlapping with the hour hand.

At the same time, there was a mechanical sound in the bell tower.

When—

The thick and long bell reverberates.

Chen Jiayu's words came to an abrupt end, and he and Cai Jiayi turned their heads in unison and looked in the direction of the bell tower.

First ......

Cai Jiayi's fingers tightly grasped the sleeve of Chen Jiayu's arm, and her eyes were straight to the bell tower.

……

Not far away, a black Audi was heading this way.

Half an hour ago, Luo Jin finished a meeting in the company, dealt with the company's recent affairs, and then went to the experimental high school to pick up Shen Nianchu.

When she was about to get to the bell tower, the phone she had placed next to her suddenly rang.

Luo Jin turned his head to look.

When she made out the caller ID on the screen, she couldn't help but frown.

is the company's marketing director.

Generally speaking, when she is outside the company, even if her subordinates need to contact her about work, most of them are only through or text messages.

There is only one possibility, if there is an emergency in the company, and the situation is quite serious, they will call her as soon as possible.

Holding the steering wheel with one hand and sliding the answer with the other, Luo Jin picked up the phone and put it to his ear, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

"Mr. Luo, it's not good...... " The marketing director on the other side said with a hint of panic in his voice.

Luo Jin's brows furrowed even tighter.

"What's wrong?"

"That's right, the new collection we just launched, the main styles in it, were accused of plagiarism......

Luo Jin runs a jewelry company and has his own jewelry brand.

Although compared with those jewelry giants in the same industry, Luo Jin's company can only be regarded as a small rising star, but because of her excellent aesthetics, from time to time to launch some excellent design of new jewelry, over the years, gradually become famous, in some of the first and second tier cities in China also have franchisees.

A few months ago, one of the company's designers came up with a new collection.

After reading the design drawings, Luo Jin was quite satisfied and invested a lot of money.

Not long ago, the company launched this new series, and the market response is quite good, Luo Jin saw this, and the factory added a large number of new orders.

Because of this, the marketing director's words instantly hit Luo Jin's head like a shocking thunderbolt.

"Accused of plagiarism? Are you sure?" She asked incredulously.

"...... It should be." "I looked at the comparison chart sent by the other party, and the styles we promoted were very similar to the jewelry designs of a new European brand two years ago...... It is almost clear that it is indeed plagiarism." ….

Luo Jin's head was buzzing, the aftermath was continuous, and his temples were swollen and painful, "What about the current situation?"

"Just on the hot search ......"

"Find someone to suppress the hot search immediately! Then make an announcement in time to tell the public that these are all the responsibility of the designer, and our company is also a victim!"

"Okay, okay...... But there's still ......."

And also?!

Luo Jin almost lost his cool and asked through gritted teeth, "What else?!"

"The brand in Europe also knew about it and just sent a fax to contact us

We not only demand that our company publicly apologize to their brand, acknowledge the copyright, and immediately stop selling the infringing products, but also demand that our company compensate them for the profits of this series, and ......

The lips dissipated without a trace.

Same with her people.

The whole world was turned into silent darkness.

Only Chen Jiayu was still standing in place, his eyes were open, his arms were still hugging Cai Jiayi, and the middle area happened to be in the shape of a girl, but at this time, it was empty.

The world is silent.

Except for the dead silence, there was no sound, and there was no light, like a deep and bottomless dry sea, Chen Jiayu sank in the innermost, except for him, there was no sign of life.

[Classmate, why did you suddenly kick me in the back and startle me. 】

[Hello, Chen Jiayu. 】

[I think there seems to be something wrong with her vision.] 】

[You are abusing me again...... Hitting is kissing and scolding is love, which proves that you have me in your heart! 】

[I will do everything I can to come to this world again, you must wait for me to ......]

【Chen Jiayu ......】

【…… I love you. 】

Her words still seem to be echoing in her ears, her smile seems to be still in front of her, and the warmth and aroma of her body seem to linger on the tip of her nose......

However, one second she was still in his arms, and the next second now, it has completely disappeared.

Even if not a single hair remains.

Why, why is this happening?

He was clearly mentally prepared.

He believes that no matter how painful the memories of the future are, he can bear it in order to be with the girl he loves!

But why......

Why is there still a loop at this moment?!

Could it really be that they were wrong?!

Chen Jiayu froze in place, raised his hands, pulled his hair vigorously, closed his eyes tightly, his thin lips kept trembling, and from the depths of his throat, he let out a cry of pain like a trapped beast.

"Ahh

Suddenly, a great force was transmitted.

This power is invisible and sourceless, but it envelops Chen Jiayu hard, pulling him mercilessly, as if to drag him out of this world.

Chen Jiayu knew that once he let this power succeed, then when he opened his eyes again, what he saw would still be the early morning of the summer vacation of his sophomore year of high school. ….

At that time, there will still be no change in his fate, and no one but him will remember what happened in this cycle, let alone ...... And then there is her appearance.

Chen Jiayu stared at the darkness in front of him.

It was so pitch black, so thick that it seemed to drip ink, so that Chen Jiayu could not see the end, as if it were boundless.

No one can know what is inside, and what kind of terrifying monster may be lurking, which will devour it all coldly and mercilessly.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered the ending of "The Little Prince" that Cai Jiayi had read to him.

Throwing away his body like dead tree bark, the little prince finally gained a new life.

If it is not broken, it will not stand......

Also, immortality and immortality.

Chen Jiayu's whole body suddenly shook his originally densely twitching heart, and it became as hard as steel.

He made a decision.

One, in the midst of these hundreds of cycles,

Decisions that were never made.

In the next second, Chen Jiayu used all his strength to break free from the control of that force.

Then, without the slightest pause or hesitation, he walked towards the deepest depths of the darkness,

Rushed straight in!

——

Before this moment, Chen Jiayu had never done such a thing, and he didn't even think about it.

for reason tells him that if, indeed, there is something fearful in it&a;

So......

He even regretted it

There is no room left.

But this time, Chen Jiayu did not hesitate to put aside his reason and fear, let alone think about whether he would regret it.

In my head, there was only one thought echoing madly.

He didn't care what monsters were hidden in this endless darkness, but since it had taken Cai Jiayi away, then he would go in and get her back!

The moment he stepped into the darkness, the original cold and fear that could penetrate deep into the bone marrow rushed in an instant.

It's like making the blood freeze.

Chen Jiayu couldn't see anything clearly, so he could only rely on his intuition and run forward.

"Cai Jiayi!"

He hissed.

At the same time, there was an almost vague expectation that in the darkness, I could hear a hint of the girl's response.

Suddenly, a little light appeared in the darkness, and at the same time, a figure stood in front of Chen Jiayu and stopped him on his way.

Looking at each other, Chen Jiayu was stunned.

That person, whether in terms of height, figure or facial features, is clearly himself, I have to say the difference, but the other party's face looks a few years older, and moreover, with a deep melancholy color.

The more mature Chen Jiayu looked at him and whispered, "Do you have to go forward? You know, the only thing that exists in it is endless suffering......

"...... you" Chen Jiayu suddenly understood who the other party was, he glared at him coldly, and said word by word, "Yes, I won't run away like you anymore."

"Pain, who hasn't had pain?"

"Is there really anyone in this world who hasn't experienced any pain except idiots?"

Chen Jiayu clenched his fists, pointed at him, and said firmly, "Of course, pain is terrible, but if I have been in pain, does it mean that I must not be able to achieve happiness?"

"No, accepting pain is not in conflict with believing that I can still be happy. And the only thing that will cause me to really "never be happy again" is my own obsession with the conviction that "I can never be happy again."

"I know you're afraid to think of those pains, but in this case, you won't be miserable, but you'll lose your qualification for happiness forever."

"So, this time I'm not going to be scared anymore, and I'm not going to back down anymore,"

Chen Jiayu looked at his older self and said word by word,

"I love her, and I will definitely do everything in my power to find her, no matter what lies ahead, even if it is an abyss, I will jump down......

"So, get out of the way."

The older Chen Jiayu was silent for a while, lowered his head, and repeated again with a clear expression, "You really decided?"

Chen Jiayu roared, "Get out of the way!"

The older Chen Jiayu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the melancholy on his face suddenly changed a little, and even showed a less clear expression that could barely be seen as a smile.

But, he did laugh.

"Okay."

He took a slight step to the side and got out of the way,

Chen Jiayu raised his foot without hesitation, and once again, his steps stepped firmly into the darkness ahead.

The moment he stepped in, there was a sudden shaking of water around him.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the darkness was replaced by a dazzling light.

Chen Jiayu's eyes were stinged and couldn't help but narrow.

I'm on fire this year
