But why did she feel like something was off?
They finally concluded their journey when it was almost one in the morning. They had returned to the MISS building. Ye Chu looked at the tall building and felt very conflicted. A few months ago, when she first arrived at the MISS building, her heart was filled with hatred. Pure hatred. Now, she could no longer find such a clear emotion anymore.
She started to miss some things, such as the chef on the top floor of the MISS building. He did not speak frequently but could accurately grasp her taste. He knew that Ye Tingyun wanted her to watch her mouth, but he would make some small desserts for her. She missed Xiao Ju… She was extremely nice to her, and they talked about everything. She was the first girl who could be considered her friend. She also missed the night scenery at the MISS building.
Her heart seemed to be blocked by something sticky. It was hard to explain. She just felt that the freedom she experienced in the journey was harder to achieve. Ye Tingyun could not even wait for a few minutes upstairs and came down to wait. Ye Chu sat in the car and looked at him, remembering the gentle, smiling face in her dreams. Her heart pained.
She had forgotten!
She had completely forgotten everything. Within these two hours, she kept remembering a sentence that her godfather once said: The past is too painful. It’s alright to not remember. If possible, she would not allow herself to recall the memories of being burned alive by the fire.
No wonder she was afraid of fire.
Bruce said that as someone who lived on the ocean for many years, she was used to water. Hence, she would be scared of fire. When people were cooking in the kitchen, she would be terrified even by a spark of fire, and she would not dare to go near it. Even now, she had never stepped into the kitchen. If she had to live alone, other than eating things raw, she would not even know how to live.
Mu Yuan walked towards Ye Tingyun. He had finally accomplished his mission. He had done a dutiful job as a deliveryman. With Ye Tingyun’s men taking up the rear and protecting them, the mercenaries did not dare to get close. There was no information from Bruce either. Ye Tingyun checked that Bruce had just entered New York, but he was no longer concerned about him. Ye Chu had returned to his side. Mu Yuan said that she was the one who escaped.
She escaped from Bruce’s side. Was it… because of him?
Ye Chu alighted from the car and leaned against the car door. Ye Tingyun walked over. The night glow caused a layer of iciness to descend upon his body. He stretched out his hands and embraced her. She could smell that there was an odor on his body—the bloody smell of traditional Chinese medicine.
During that car accident, when the car was flipping in the air, he had unbuckled his seatbelt and covered her body. Otherwise, he would not be so severely injured while she was barely hurt. The injuries on her arms were insignificant compared to his.
She was like a puppet and did not move, letting him hug her. Mu Yuan looked at them and thought, Tsk, what an unrequited love. How refreshing!
“We are going home,” said Ye Tingyun.
“Yeah.”
Mu Yuan also went to the top floor of the MISS building. He first reported the mission to Ye Ling and successfully asked for two days of leave. He booked an airplane ticket to return home three days later. He could finally take a good bath and sleep peacefully.
After bathing, an unknown number called him. It was a disposable number. He had only called Jack and Bruce before. This was not a familiar number, nor was it Bruce’s number.
“Major Mu Yuan, I am Chief Anderson’s assistant. You have just returned to New York. Is it convenient for us to meet? The Chief told me to return the phone and passport to you.”
Mu Yuan was silent for a moment. “Okay!”
He suddenly remembered a life-threatening matter. His phone wallpaper!
Mu Yuan’s eyes widened. “What the heck!!!!!”
