Now, he was convinced that she was not.However... Somehow an uncomfortable feeling came over her. She thought perhaps it was because he was the first friend she had ever gone through thick and thin with as a child.Although she had lived in this small town for several years, she always felt a sense of estrangement from the children in town.However, in the dream, she did not feel that the little girl had any sense of estrangement from the little boy."Sure, I won't come here again," said Ling Yiran as she stepped back. However, she stepped on a branch, lost her footing, and leaned backward."Ah!" exclaimed Ling Yiran, feeling herself falling over the edge of the cliff.'I'll fall!'Her hands almost instinctively tried to grab something! 'Whatever it is!'Bang!The next moment, a hand caught her hand. She was so close to the cliff that if he had not caught her, she would have fallen all the way down.Gu Lichen was lying on the edge of the cliff, clutching her wrist with one h
"I'm heavy, aren't I?" the little boy asked with some embarrassment."Yes, you're quite heavy," the little girl said rudely. Every step was so difficult."I'm sorry... You had to carry me. However… However, if you get hurt in the future, I'll certainly carry you!" There was a note of eagerness in the little boy's voice as if he was afraid that the little girl would dislike him for his uselessness."How long can you carry me for? What if you won't be able to carry me?" The little girl did not seem to believe in the little boy's strength. He was older than her, but he seemed to need her protection all the way."I could carry you forever!" the little boy blurted out.However, the little boy and little girl did not know what forever meant.The broken images combined and became a vivid memory.Ling Yiran only felt drowsy and tried to open her eyes, but it was as if her eyes could not open at all. Her body seemed to move from side to side, swaying slightly.'It's as if... Someone is
He had been looking for her, yet she had forgotten him.Ling Yiran stared at the man who was carrying her on his back, her eyes watering.It was just like what he said back then. He would carry her on his back if she got hurt, but... They would not have a lifetime.The one she liked and loved was not him!"Gu Lichen, I won't come to this hill again. In fact, what happened when you were little is just something that happened when you were little. You don't have to be so obsessed with it," said Ling Yiran.She did not want him to be obsessed with the incident during their childhood. She did not want him to be deceived by Sis Lifang, but now, from her standpoint, she could not explain everything.Gu Lichen sneered, "Ling Yiran, who are you to tell me this?"She was stunned."I heard that you seem to have a problem with Lifang. Does it bother you that she’s the one who saved my life?" he asked.She knew he had misunderstood her. "I just don't want you to be fooled," she said."Fo
He did not expect her to be here and encounter that thrilling scene.When he saw her fall off the cliff, his mind was almost blank. He just instinctively rushed over and grabbed her wrist, forgetting that he might fall with her if he made any mistake.When she could not reach him with her other hand and was even suffering a headache, he panicked.He was afraid that his hand could not grab onto hers and that she would eventually fall. Plus, she was having a headache as well. He had been scared to death!It seemed like it had been a long, long time since he experienced such fear!Even as he pulled her up when she was in a semi-coma, there was already a cold sweat on his back. His hands were shaking too. The fear was spreading rapidly throughout his body.By the time he came to himself, he was already holding her tightly in his arms as if he was holding an important treasure. He simply would not let go!'Why... Why is this happening? Why do I care so much about her when I know sh
'Nothing could happen to her! Absolutely nothing could happen to her!'I'll find her no matter what!'"What about the nearby surveillance? Have you found anything?" asked Yi Jinli."We're still working on it. We should have something soon," Gao Congming said hurriedly.Fortunately, there was surveillance on several roads around here. If Miss Ling had left this area, the surveillance cameras would have filmed her.However, the surveillance reported that only 13 cars had gone in and out and several pedestrians passing by during this period.This area was one of the more remote parts of the town, so not many would have come in or out of here.They had checked out the owners of these cars. They were all innocent town residents, and they had no criminal records as well as nothing to do with Miss Ling.As for those who passed by, they did not find Miss Ling among them.That was to say, Miss Ling was probably still on this hill. It was just that the hills were all connected, and it w
However, it was the first time he had actually set foot here.As he followed the search party step by step through the dense forest, his mind flashed back to the painting by Gu Lichen that he had seen in the studio at the Gu family's house.In the painting, a petite girl carried a little boy on her back as she walked through the dense forest step by step.The little girl's back was bent low as if almost crushed by the weight of the little boy. However, even so, the little girl carried him with her.Every step was so difficult.He did not feel anything when he first saw the painting, but now, if he put in the likeness of Yiran and Gu Lichen, he panicked.'What on earth am I panicking about? Am I panicking because I've done so many things in secret but still couldn't break the bond between her and Gu Lichen?'Or am I panicking at the thought that Gu Lichen will always be in her heart? Even if she has forgotten about him, what if she remembers him someday…'Or perhaps I’m panickin
'Yes, he must be here to look for me. I've spent a good deal of time on the hill, so he must’ve been worried.'Ling Yiran subconsciously wanted to run to Yi Jinli's side. However, she was still being carried by Gu Lichen, so she immediately said to him, "Let… Let me down first." "Going over to Yi Jinli?" Gu Lichen's cold voice rang."Yes," she gave a definite answer."Ling Yiran, once I put you down, I'll be indifferent to whatever happens to you from now on. You'll only be a stranger to me, and you must stop calling the name 'Chenchen'. It's not something you can call."What Gu Lichen said was like a warning, but it was also like a goodbye.Ling Yiran suddenly found her nose a little sore, and it was as if something was pressing on her heart. It was somewhat depressing.'Is it because… I lied to him? Or is it because we were partners who once went through thick and thin together and are eventually becoming strangers now?'"Got it, Mr. Gu," muttered Ling Yiran.They spoke so
'Therefore, luckily she's not... She's not...'His heart seemed to be aching again. Gu Lichen pursed his thin lips tightly. 'From now on, I'll wipe this woman from my heart once and for all! I’ll leave no trace behind!'Ling Yiran walked up to Yi Jinli, only to find him strangely quiet. His beautiful peach blossom eyes were now as dark as the deep sea, giving out a lonely vibe.'Is... he angry? Is it because he saw me with Gu Lichen? Or is it because I had spent too much time on the hill and made him worry?'However, there were so many people here, so she could not explain herself right now. She could only think of explaining it to him when they were alone."I'm sorry I worried you! I was going to call you, but... I accidentally broke my phone and couldn't contact you," she said.Not only did her phone break, but also Gu Lichen's phone. Its screen cracked when he was saving her life.Both were unable to make calls on their phones, so they were unable to communicate with the outs
