Sun Jie tidied up her clothes that she could still wear before, then took some childhood toys as a souvenir. She walked out of the Sun family with a picture of her mother in her hand. Everything seemed extremely quiet. He was sitting in the driver's seat, with Sun Jie in the back seat, one hand lightly rubbing her temple. She had seen the setting sun in the west, and the afterglow had turned half the sky red, just as it had turned bloody and painful inside her.
She didn't know if Xu Yiru was going to help her or harm her. She didn't even know his purpose or his character.
Maybe her second uncle was right and the water was deep.
It was obvious that she had already drifted out of the muddy water, and if she had been lucky enough to float it, it would have been a blessing; if not, it would have to sink naturally.
There was an old canvas bag. Sun Jie took it and held it in her arms, unzipping it. Inside was a small compartment with a picture inside. The photo was slightly yellowish and showed a man and a woman, no, a boy and a girl.
The girl was wearing a floral dress, appearing gentle and elegant. The boy was handsome and graceful, but there was no strong aura in his eyes, making people want to keep looking at him.
At this time, Sun Jie was ten years old and Mu Hanyu had just reached adulthood.
Xu Yiru had pushed her into the deep water. After she was saved by Mu Hanyu, she wanted to be photographed as a souvenir. Before taking the photo, she had already changed out of her wet fluffy dress, but the boy was still wet.
He was dripping all over.
This was the only picture they had of each other.
When she was only ten years old, this boy Mu Hanyu had become a part of her life. Thus, for the next eight years, she lived for him. Yu Qihang once said, "Sun Jie, don't you feel that you are chasing after a star and not a man?"
However, in her heart, it was love.
Otherwise, why would her heart ache when she heard him say that he already had a target, how she had willingly entered the prison when she heard him give the answer in that confrontation two years ago.
If this wasn't love, then what was?
She stared at the photo for a few seconds, then closed her eyes and increased the strength of her palms. The flat picture became twisted, the folds rose up, and with another swish, it shattered into four pieces. The boys' and girls' faces were no longer in the picture, and it was impossible for them to return to their original appearances, just as they were now in the relationship between her and Mu Hanyu, two rays that, if they had ever intersected, would never intersect again.
No, not a ray, but two parallel lines, all the time she was trying her best to reach a point of intersection with him.
They all said that girls were only able to chase after boys with a thin layer of gauze, but why did she feel like she was facing a cliff?
She rolled down the window, held out her hand, smiled, and let go of it. The picture spun in the wind, dancing merrily until it was out of sight.
The wind blew through the window and onto Sun Jie's face, making her feel like tears were about to fall. She should close the door, but then a black BMW entered her line of sight. She wiped her eyes, feeling sad and happy.
She knew whose license plate it was!
The black BMW turned around in front of Sun Jie's car and braked to a halt right in the middle of Sun Jie's road. Sun Jie didn't expect him to do this, and her body involuntarily rushed forward, her forehead knocking against the back of the seat in front of her.
