Time and you are my fault

It wasn't until dinner that Chu Yi finally couldn't help asking, "Shanshan, does he...have any news from there?"

Lian Shanshan bit her chopsticks and said, "It's... quite normal."

Chu Yi stared at her guilty look, only to feel her brow twitch.

"to be frank."

Lian Shanshan looked at Chu Yi aggrievedly, took the chopsticks away from her mouth, and sighed.

"Yi, I hope you are mentally prepared."

Chu Yi's heart skipped a beat, and a chill ran up her spine.

"As soon as the news of your engagement to Sheng Jinghuai broke out today, Zong Yanxiu found out about it for some reason, and then he passed out and didn't wake up."

Chu Yi's hand holding the chopsticks slowly tightened, as if her heart was also being clenched, and she couldn't breathe.

The next second, she dropped her chopsticks and ran to the bedroom.

She immediately called Shiyue.

But there was always no one answering.

If Sheng Jinghuai did not do the news of the engagement, then the only one who could do it would be Shi Yue!
He is slowly torturing Zong Yanxiu!
Called over and over again, but no one answered.

Chu Yi slumped on the ground helplessly, tears welling in her eyes.

At this moment, another question popped up in my mind.

Why didn't Shiyue threaten the Zong family with his children?
Isn't a living life more stimulating to Zong Yanxiu than an unfounded scandal?
Doubts lingered in her heart, so she couldn't find any ideas.

When I dialed Shi Jing's number, just like last time, it was an empty number.

She pinched the phone, at a loss.

Suddenly, she noticed the page of the call log.

There was a phone call from her to Zong Yanxiu.

It even worked.

When did she call him?
After checking the time, she calculated that it was the night of the charity auction, before she was taken away from the bathroom by Lin Luolian.

At that time, a number she randomly dialed turned out to be his?
If Zong Yanxiu was willing to answer her phone at that time, what about now...

Gently pressing the number that was engraved in his heart with his fingers, the phone beeped for a long time.

Just when she was about to give up, the phone rang.

Chu Yi's breath stagnates, "Zong Yanxiu..."

It seemed that she hadn't pronounced this name for a long time, so at this moment, a familiar feeling enveloped her from all directions, making her eyes warm.

"Calling even after divorce, Chu Yi, are you trying to show off your engagement to Brother Yanzu?"

A strange woman's voice came from the other end immediately.

The surrounding air was sucked away, leaving her frozen in place, at a loss.

Chu Yi didn't know what to say, and she was surrounded by embarrassment.

The phone was cut off instantly.

At that moment, the thin air penetrated into her lungs, making her panting heavily.

The person who answered the phone was the same woman who answered Zong Yanxiu's phone when he first went abroad for a physical examination.

A woman's sixth sense can always easily detect some abnormal breath in the tone.

Chu Yi could guess that the woman who answered the phone liked Zong Yanxiu.

Bitterness climbed to the root of her tongue, making all the breath around her become this taste.

That night, Zong Yanxiu finally appeared in Chu Yi's dream.

After 20 days like a walking dead, she finally saw him in her dream.

In the dream, Zong Yanxiu was still tall and straight, and his face was still handsome, but the way he looked at her changed.

As if staring at an irrelevant stranger, he passed by her and grabbed the woman with the blurred face.

Chu Yi chased after him in a panic, pulled his sleeve, and asked in a trembling voice, "Zong Yanxiu, do you want me now?"

The man's expression was cold and alienated, and he hugged the woman even tighter, "Do I know you?"

At that moment, there was a tearing pain in her heart, which made her wake up from the dream instantly.

Cold sweat had already wet her body, and the cold night wind poured in from the window, making her tremble all over.

I got up and closed the window, and couldn't fall back asleep.

She sat by the window for three hours until light appeared on the horizon.

In the following week, Chu Yi devoted all his energy to the company's operations and the lawsuit.

She started her daily routine of almost living in the company again, but this time, no one would wait for her to get off work late at night, and no one would bring her favorite food to accompany her.

She often stares at the position of the sofa in the office in a daze, as if there is a familiar figure in that position, and that person will tease her with "not concentrating on work." '

A week later, when Chu Yi packed up her things and left for get off work, Xiao He knocked on the door and brought in a box delivered by courier.

"Mr. Chu, your courier."

Chuy got up, brushed her hair and walked over curiously, "I didn't buy anything."

Xiao He froze, "Isn't it a prank?"

Chewie took the scissors and opened it directly.

The exquisite packaging box is printed with the iconic Patek Philippe logo.

"Wow, this is a watch. His watches are very beautiful. Who gave it to him?" Xiao He's eyes lit up immediately.

Chuy unpacked layers of packaging, and finally took out the dark blue box containing the watch.

Before opening the box, she thought that tomorrow is her birthday, so this gift might be from her uncle or from Shanshan.

But when the box was opened to reveal the style of the watch inside, Chu Yi's heart rose to her throat, and at the same time, she instantly knew who the gift was.

She took the watch out, her eyes glued to the dial, but she heard the sound of her heart beating faster.

bang bang bang --
Again and again, it hit the chest forcefully, as if the blood in the whole body was activated.

"It's so beautiful!" Xiao He couldn't help but admire, "But there's no order information or cards here."

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Chuy's lips.

This watch, like the one she gave Zong Yanxiu as a wedding anniversary present, is a couple's watch.

This watch was given by Zong Yanxiu!

It must be from him!

She couldn't wait to take the phone and dial the number.

Just when she pressed the dial button, she hung up again.

It's five o'clock in the morning in Country M, so he should still be resting.

Lian Shanshan took Chu Yi to the restaurant for dinner. On the way, she found that Chu Yi was a little abnormal, and kept staring at the watch on his wrist.

She asked curiously, "Who sent it? It's even faster than me."

Saying that, he took out a box and handed it to Chu Yi, "Happy birthday baby, you've turned 26! Be happy in the future!"

Chu Yi took it over, "Thank you Shanshan."

After ordering, Chu Yi didn't say anything about the origin of the watch.

She thought it would be good if she knew it herself.

As long as he knows that he still has her in his heart, that's enough.

In this way, even if the road ahead is bleak, you still have the courage to wait patiently.

In the middle of a meal, Lian Shanshan suddenly made an excuse to go to the bathroom, but she didn't come back for more than ten minutes.

Chewie called her and was on the phone.

She got up and went to the bathroom to find someone, but she didn't go far when she heard Lian Shanshan's questioning voice under her breath outside the safety door of the stairs.

"Did you ask or not? What's going on! He hasn't recovered well yet, how could he get engaged!"
