and save them. 。Yang Zhao and Gu Chi have an assistance system between them. If one is in danger, the other will definitely receive a message. 。Just now Yang Zuo has already sought help from Gu Chi,...Since returning home, this was her first time seeing Gu Yichan. Her mood instantly became complicated. 。His eyebrows and eyes are still familiar, but he seems more mature than five years ago. 。A bespoke navy suit accentuated his already tall stature, making him appear even more imposing. There was an undefinable air of authority about him now, which made people feel a bit intimidated. 。The moment Cheng Ke Xin saw Gu Yihan, she felt the past flood her like a tidal wave. Then, as his features became clearer, it was like old paint peeling away slowly. 。She seemed to see herself during college and five years ago smiling at her current self, the two of them sharing the simplest and most beautiful love affair. 。But then she thought of the difficulties Gu Yichan would face later. 。But all of that, with Lin Xiaoru's death, seemed to vanish into thin air. 。 This is the magic of time, isn't it It preserves everyone's original appearance while deeply changing each person. Gu Yichen is like this, and so am I. 。Now that she thinks back on all that happened in the past, she can smile and face it. 。The moment Gu Yichan walked in, he saw Cheng Kexin. His eyes flashed with the same amazement as everyone else just moments ago, followed by a heart-wrenching longing. 。How many times had he woken up from his dreams, only to find darkness before him Her figure was still imprinted in his mind—the girl she was during their student days, the woman she became after entering the workforce. Each version of her was vivid and clear. 。But his consciousness clearly told him that she was no longer by his side. 。She, does not belong to herself. 。Even to see it is a wish, to touch it, that would be madness. 。After five years, after so long, she finally stood before him alive and real. No longer a phantom, no longer would she vanish. 。As soon as Gu Yichan took a step, he wanted to go straight to Cheng Ke Xin. He felt his heartbeat was out of control. Was it also excited about her reunion with himBut classmates rushed over at this moment, blocking his sightline towards Cheng Ke Xin. 。Due to social niceties, he could only go through the motions of polite greetings. 。Gu Yichen didn't even know what he was saying, he felt like his body and soul were separated at this moment. 。The body here was saying things that were already second nature, but the soul had long since arrived before Cheng Ke Xin, gazing greedily at this person who had haunted his day and night dreams yet remained unattainable. 。He wished he could go back and talk to her, ask her how she had been all these years. 。Finally ending the socializing here, Gu Yichan eagerly rushed to reunite with his soulmate. 。Seeing Gu Yichan walk towards her, Cheng Keqin was a bit flustered. She hadn't mentally prepared herself to meet him yet. 。His eyes dodged for a moment, but Cheng Kexin ultimately chose to remain where he was. 。What needs to be faced, will come eventually. 。Today's Cheng Kexin is no longer the timid Su Kexin of yesterday. She has to learn to face everything. 。"Long time no see" 。Gazing into Cheng Keixin's eyes, Gu Yichan softly said, as if afraid that raising his voice even slightly would scare her away. 。I don't know why, but the racing heart I had just moments ago miraculously calmed down when I stood before her. 。Four words said with a calmness, as if they had only separated yesterday. 。 It's been a long time. 。"Cheng Kexin replied with a slight smile, "How have you been these years"
"What about you How are you doing" Instead of answering, Gu Yihán asked back, his eyes clearly showing concern. 。"Very good, able to eat and drink, almost couldn't stop enjoying myself." 。"Feeling that the atmosphere between them was a bit subtle, Cheng Keqin made a joke." 。"Is that so" Gu Yichen forced out a wry smile, not knowing whether to be happy or sad, "As long as you're doing well..." 。As for my own thoughts, it's best to keep them buried deep within. There's no need to tell her, lest she be burdened with worry afterwards. 。"Well " 。She nodded slightly, Cheng Ke Xin replied with a hint of discomfort, unable to think of what else to say. 。Gu Yichen was still different from those classmates after all. She couldn't bring herself to say anything too polite. 。And it seemed as though Gu Yichen had no intention of speaking either, leaving the two in a brief silence. 。It's good that Gu Yihán, who had calmed down a bit, didn't let this awkwardness linger for too long. 。“Shall we go for a walk” Gu Yichan suggested, “It’s too noisy here. I want to stroll around the campus. It’s been a long time since I went back. I wonder if there have been any changes.” 。"This..." Cheng Kexin hesitated a little. After all, she and Gu Yichan had once been lovers. 。Now that the two of them are going out alone, it's probably not very appropriate. There are too many people here and it's easy to be gossiped about. 。"We're still friends, aren't we" Perhaps guessing Cheng Ke Xin's concerns, Gu Yi Han said generously, which made Cheng Ke Xin realize she had overthought things. 。"Okay, I'll tell Xiaomi. You wait a moment." 。After Cheng Kexin finished speaking, she turned and walked over to Xiaomi standing beside her. 。After Mi explained the situation, she pulled Cheng Keqin's hand with concern and shook her head slightly at her. 。"It's fine, I'll be back soon." 。With a reassuring pat on Xiaomi's hand, Cheng Kexin signaled that she would be careful and safe. 。Since Cheng Kexin insisted, Xiaomi could only agree to let her go. 。She wasn't worried about Cheng Ke Xin's safety; Gu Yi Han, in her heart, wasn't someone like that. 。Only those present know about her and Gu Yichen's past relationship. Now that they are seen going out together, one can only imagine the gossip behind their backs. 。As expected, after the two left, various gossips started circulating around them. 。"Su Ke Xin isn't married How come she's still going out with her ex-boyfriend Could it be that she wants to cheat" "You're too old-fashioned, they divorced five years ago..." 。I don't think it's a case of adultery, but rather a rekindling of old flames. 。"Is Gu Yichen still not married You're saying he could possibly look at someone who's divorced" "Enough! It's just going out for a bit, is that such a big deal And what's wrong with divorce Divorce isn't illegal!" Unable to bear the sarcasm surrounding Cheng Keixin, Xiaomi loudly rebuked. 。Just moments ago, those gossiping busybodies who were so eager to speak had suddenly flushed red with anger. They glared at Xiaomi one after another, but Xiaomi’s fierce gaze silenced them all, and they dared not speak another word. 。Outside, Cheng Kexin and Gu Yichen walked to the school field. Revisiting this familiar place brought back a wave of emotions for both of them. 。“Remember this place We used to come here for a run, and there was once a girl who boldly confessed her feelings to a boy she liked here. But that time…”He chuckled halfway through his sentence. The incident back then had truly been quite a comical one. 。Cheng Ke Xin heard this and laughed, "How could I forget I remember that girl was wearing a wedding dress, but when she finished her confession and nervously waited for the boy's response, she discovered that the hem of her wedding dress had been lit by the candles surrounding her. The worst part is, she didn't even realize it herself..." 。I still remember that boy…" Two people laughed and looked at each other, without saying anything more. 。After a moment of silence, Gu Yichen turned his head to look at Cheng Kexin and asked, "Kexin, do you still have contact with Gu Chi now"roy your home. 。That year was a good example. Gu Chi wouldn't let history repeat itself. 。"Well, that's good too" 。" Cheng Keixin nodded, thinking that Gu Chi's approach was indeed a good way to prev...
