Time returned to the present.
Ye Fuyu asked Fang Yan out when she got off work.
The two of them sat down in a cafe near the company. Ye Fuyu looked at the person who had disappeared for eight years. Time had not left any traces on her, but now she was breathtakingly beautiful. It was as if eight years had never passed.
Fang Yan smiled sweetly at him." Why do you keep looking at me?”The sun shone through the window.
Fang Yan took off her beige coat and gently placed it on the armrest of the small sofa. She was the most natural in front of Ye Fuyu. The reason was unknown, or perhaps it was because they appreciated each other.
"Have you changed? But she's still as beautiful." He chuckled.
"Of course. You seem to have aged a few years, lost weight, and tanned. Did you go to Africa?" He chuckled.
"Hahahaha, I've been to Africa when I was studying. I've been in these few countries in the Middle East for the past few years.”He just didn't tell her that he had heard that she had gone to the Middle East. He had been in the Middle East for eight years, searching almost every city and town. In the end, he found nothing.
"I heard that it's quite chaotic there. What are you going to do?" She stirred the coffee on the table gently. She used to drink coffee with sugar, but she got used to not adding sugar. On the contrary, the more bitter it was, the more fragrant it was.
"I'm experiencing real life. I might have been too comfortable in the past. I enjoyed the best scenery and the best life.”Over the past few years, he had indeed experienced it deeply. A quiet life was a great luxury. He had already seen the cruelty and reality of life there! Compared to the outside world, it could not be called a life. It could only be a trial. What was uncertain was that he did not know if they could survive.
"You always have some strange ideas. However, I've also been there a few times. Their lives can't be called life at all. I saw with my own eyes that a few children were fighting for a piece of bread.”She had been there a few times. Cyrus had sponsored a lot of refugees there, and she had gone with him. However, what she saw and heard on the road still frightened her.
"Well, life is like that. Forget it, let's not talk about that side. It always makes me sad. Where have you been all these years?" He did not believe that Fang Yan would become someone else's concubine.
"I went to Uzbekistan, where I went to school and worked.”she said truthfully.
"Why did you suddenly go? I didn't hear you mention it.”He really wanted to know the reason behind her sudden departure. After Mo Hexuan got married, he had considered taking Fang Yan with him to wherever he wanted to go. However, he thought that she needed time. He did not expect her to suddenly disappear.
"It was quite sudden. At that time, my boss, who is now my husband, suddenly arranged for me to go abroad to study jewelry design. I thought it was a good opportunity to come back after learning. I didn't expect it to be so many years later.”She never knew that it was a scheme, a scheme to make her leave.
"You said that your boss arranged for you to study jewelry design. Why did you marry him?”How could he not think of the reason? He just wanted to hear how that person told Fang Yan, or how he tricked Fang Yan away.
"At that time, I did study jewelry design for a period of time. I didn't have much talent, so I changed my major. We'll talk about it slowly in the future." After saying that, she took a sip of coffee on the table. Ye Fuyu didn't touch the coffee in front of him.
"Then have you been in Ukraine all this time?”He could only blame himself for searching blindly.
"Yes, after graduation, I'll stay in the government department of Azeroth as a translator. After two years, I went to England to study biology. I also studied biology for two years. My professor came here to help and asked me to help. I didn't expect it to be his company."
"That's not bad. How many years have you been married? What does he do?" He had too many questions.
"Three years. His business is too broad. I don't know what he does exactly. All I know is jewelry, restaurants, luxury goods, electronic communications, and the internet.”
She had never cared about his business. She had only been by his side for a few years, and she had never asked about it.
"Looks like he's a big shot." No wonder Fang Yan could disappear without a trace.
"It's alright." Fang Yan didn't want to talk about Cyrus. Although he was a famous big shot, she still didn't want to talk about him.
"Did you come back to the Thousand Year Lake?”That was the place they had been dreaming of. They were just trying to find some memories that they shared, even though many years had passed.
"Not yet. I'm looking for time." She really wanted to go back and take a look, but she did not have the courage. She did not have the courage to run away overnight. She was afraid to admit that she was alone in this world, while Fang Jie was sleeping in the Thousand Year Lake. In the past few years, she had dreamed of Fang Jie countless times.
She lost her courage and shut herself in her little corner, convincing herself that she was not alone and that she had a family. However, Cyrus couldn't replace Fang Jie. That was Cyrus's home, not hers. Her home was at the Thousand Year Lake, that beautiful place. The place that had appeared in his dreams countless times, the place that carried all his nightmares.
"Then you set a time. I'll go with you. I can go again.”Of course, this was just an excuse. Fang Yan rarely rejected his good intentions. After all, Ye Fuyu used to take care of her like a brother and gave her warm care. Although times had changed, she would never reject him.
"Alright, I'll set a time to inform you. What's your phone number?" Cyrus had already given her a phone. It was uncomfortable to not be able to find her without a phone, as if he had lost her.
"My phone is broken. I'll buy it later. Tell me yours first.”He had been overseas for the past few years and had long cut off contact with people he was familiar with. He only occasionally sent emails. He never used the phone again, but he would use a public phone when he had no choice.
"I'll write it for you." She took out a notebook and pen from her bag and started writing. This was her habit when she was in Ukraine. She had to go through everything in the castle, big or small. She couldn't remember many things, so she wrote them down in her notebook.
"It's almost time for dinner. Let's have dinner together.”He raised his hand and looked at his watch.
"I'm afraid I can't today. I have to go back. How about tomorrow night?" When she was in the office, Cyrus called and said that he had to rush to Germany tomorrow to deal with some matters. She definitely had to accompany him for dinner tonight.
"Alright."
"You're always talking about me. What about you? You've been alone all these years.”Although Ye Fuyu had once been with Chen Jiawen, she had also heard from Mo Hexuan that Ye Fuyu no longer loved Chen Jiawen. However, Chen Jiawen had never given up and kept finding excuses to look for him. She ruled out the possibility that they were still together.
"I'm used to being alone." Having someone in his heart was a form of companionship, and he only wanted her in his heart. He was the kind of person who was willing to give in and let go. He didn't know how to pester her, and he didn't want to pester her. That would be bad. No matter what it was, too much entanglement would only make the two of them more tired. And he had already understood that, which was why he had placed her deep in his heart and would never see the light of day again.
"She's not young anymore. It's time to find someone." This was the truth. When Ye Fuyu was young, his parents were no longer around. It could be said that they were in the same boat. No one understood the feeling of having no one to rely on better than her. Therefore, she always felt that Ye Fuyu was kind.
"No rush, I haven't traveled the world yet.”He was afraid that his heart could no longer hold anyone else. Why would he make things difficult for himself and then make things difficult for others?
" Ding, ding, ding." It was Fang Yan's ringtone. Perhaps no one else could have such a ringtone.
"I need to take this call."
"Yes."
Fang Yan picked up the phone." Hello, I'm at the cafe not far from the right side of the company. Yes, come over."
"He's here to pick me up. Let's stop talking today. We'll meet another day.”As he spoke, he put on his coat calmly.
"Alright, I'll send you there. It's not easy to drive in here.”
"Yes."
A white BMW stopped at the intersection. Fang Yan hurried in front while Ye Fuyu walked behind. He really wanted to see the man who kidnapped Fang Yan.
" I had a cup of coffee with a friend just now." He turned around and looked at Ye Fuyu.
"It's him, Ye Fuyu."
"This is Cyrus, you know." She chuckled. At least, her smile eased Cyrus's various guesses. The man in front of her could only be friends with Fang Yan.
"Hello, I'm Fang Yan's husband.”He extended his right hand politely.
Ye Fuyu also extended his right hand and shook it slightly. "Hello,"
"Ah, do you want to come to my house for a meal? You haven't seen Fang Yan for a long time. You can catch up.”
"No need, let's meet another day."
"Alright, goodbye."
Ye Fuyu didn't remember how he got home. His entire mind was filled with today's scenes. Fang Yan's husband was outstanding enough to give her everything she wanted. But was that really what she wanted?
