Yu Meng vaguely remembered that when Tan Yubai was treated as a "mute Xiao Hei", she had bumped into him living here.

He should know everything, but he couldn't let Yu dream about it.

Yu Meng did not blame Tan Yubai, nor her father, nor anyone who had hidden this matter from her. They didn't want her to suffer, and she didn't want to suffer.

The thick tree trunk was still standing firmly in the yard, but the leaves were already in a state of depression. She couldn't tell what kind of tree it was, and she didn't know how many years it had been dead.

Tan Yubai unconsciously held her hand and turned it around in his palm. He sighed as he looked at the name on the tombstone.

"Yeah, there seems to be someone here to protect me. There were several times when the tiger tried to hunt me down. I had to hide here to avoid a calamity."

Yu Meng nodded.

"It must be my mother." She said, "She protected you."

Tan Yubai nodded. He looked at the tombstone with a gentle and regretful gaze. "Aunt Wen." This was what he had called her since she was young. Aunt Wen was the same as her name and in Tan Yubai's impression, she was the most gentle woman in the world.

He still remembered when they were still young, Yu Mengcheng following behind his butt all day long. Aunt Wen had seen through the hearts of these two children. She knew who liked who, and it was like hiding from a god of pests.

Aunt Wen picked a night when Yu Meng was not around, and quietly called Tan Yubai over to the house, and said a lot of things.

Tan Yubai had never mentioned those words to Yu Meng, but he had always placed them in his heart, never forgetting them.

She said: "In life, there is almost no end of loved ones, let alone a cool boy like him." However, she had the power to pierce through people's hearts. She told Tan Yubai, if you don't meet your true love in this life, you must treat Yu Meng well, and that it won't be easy for a child who is willing to love you like this, so don't let her down. "

Tan Yubai now recalled that Aunt Wen, as a mother, had worried her heart out for Yu Meng.

However, what she might not have expected was that not only did she meet her true love, but this person was none other than Yu Meng.

The earth was round, the world was round, everything went in circles, and finally everything went back to where it came from.

"Big White, let's kowtow for Mommy."

"Alright."

One, two, three …

Holding hands with Tan Yubai, they kowtowed three times in this desolate courtyard, in this desolate environment.

For Wen Lan, too.

Luckily she didn't have the courage to face Mu Bai directly, or else she really wouldn't be able to think of how to face him.

That strange man had taken away her mother and ruined her family. On the other hand, he had given her mother love and warmth.

Love and hate mutually canceled each other out. Yu Meng was destined to be a stranger to this Mister Mu.

"If the company had not wanted to film this script, perhaps I would not have listened to Fang Rui's story." Yu Meng opened her mouth after a long while. "If it wasn't for that story, I wouldn't have thought about coming here. If I hadn't come here, I wouldn't have seen the photos that fell down. If I hadn't seen the photos, I wouldn't have been so obsessed with trying to figure out what was going on. If I hadn't wanted to figure it all out, I wouldn't have thought about the past …"

As she spoke, Yu Meng couldn't help but sigh.

"The gears of fate, they still brought me back to the past. There are some things I can't escape from, right?" Yu Meng turned her head to look at Tan Yubai, "Even if you had violently snatched the wooden box from my hands back then, you still wouldn't have been able to stop me from continuing to advance towards the truth."

Tan Yubai laughed, "You're right."

He helped Yu Meng to her feet, looked at the wound on her arm, then carried her to a nearby rock and let her legs rest on his. He rubbed Yu Meng's knees one by one.

Yu Meng's gaze never left the tombstone.

"Mom …" At last she could not help it, and cried out, as she had done before.

This sentence, bringing with it all the years of loneliness and longing, she said in a hoarse and trembling voice, "I missed you so much …"

With that said, Tan Yubai couldn't help but hold Yu Meng even more tightly.

"Mom, let me tell you, Tan Yubai is really a black-hearted guy. Only after experiencing so many things and causing me so much pain do he admit that he loves me." Yu Meng continued narrating, but more like she was complaining, "He only knows how to bully me."

Half of Tan Yubai's face was buried in Yu Meng's embrace, while the other half of his face was exposed to the left. He gave it a flick.

"I thought you wanted to be sentimental, but it turned out to be a complaint."

"Hmph, mom, you can't let him go, he even dares to divorce me. First, we had an ambiguous relationship, then, we came to the Sri Lanka and couldn't be at ease.

Tan Yubai said with her eyes closed, "She doesn't dare to touch you."

"Ooo!" You see, you should be speaking up for others now! "

On the other hand, Tan Yubai patiently explained each of them to her, "Because if she dares to touch you, I will return it back to her several fold."

As for Yu Meng, once she started complaining, it would be too late.

Tan Yubai buried his head in Yu Meng's embrace and closed his eyes. In a trance, he heard the girl call out his name with a smile, one word after another, as gentle as the spring wind in the third month. He was immersed in the river of his blissful memories, holding hands with his loved one, but suddenly, a torrent of water rushed his way out, breaking through all these beautiful illusions.

He suddenly opened his eyes. That summer, that girl had just disappeared into the crowd.

Tan Yubai's body stiffened, and fell backwards.

The moment he fell, Yu Meng's heart sank.

"Tan Yubai!" She cried out in alarm as she saw the man lying on the fallen leaves. His face was pale as he hugged her, while his body was trembling uncontrollably.

He was addicted to drugs again.

Yu Meng rushed over to help him up, and then grabbed his arm to support her shoulders. With much difficulty, she half supported him and half dragged him into the old and run-down house.

Tan Yubai was in great pain, his fingers grabbing onto the bedside until they were white, the worn-out bed board, had long been pricked with thorns, Tan Yubai's hand was bleeding profusely, slowly falling through the gaps between his white fingers, it made Yu Meng's heart ache.

He seemed to be trying his best to hold it in, his mind still not completely out of control. Yu Meng held his injured hand, but he pulled it away. He turned his body with great difficulty, facing the cold wall, his back facing Yu Meng.

"Get out..." Every word was extremely difficult for him to say. He trembled as he bit his lips, his palms, and his hoarse throat.

He did his last best not to hurt her.

Every part of Tan Yubai's body was torturing him, as if a surge of energy was gushing out of his body, shattering his internal organs, breaking his bones, and ripping apart his flesh.

This was more cruel and unbearable than death.

Tan Yubai could not take it anymore, he extended his bloodied hand and blocked the broken wall in front of him, using all his strength to strike it with his head. The skin on the wall rustled as it fell, and bright red blood quickly dripped from his head.

"No!"

Yu Meng cried out in alarm and rushed to hug him from behind. She would rather he lose control and torment her, but she did not want him to just bite the bullet and endure the pain.

Yu Meng hugged the trembling man, but he was doing his best to struggle free.

"You … "Let's go..." Tan Yubai had already begun to speak in an intermittent manner, the words he was chewing on were unclear, but his mouth was still filled with blood.

"I'm not leaving!" Every second was a torture to Yu Meng. Her heart was being torn open inch by inch. She was in unbearable pain.

She finally couldn't bear it anymore. She stretched out her hand and rummaged through Tan Yubai's body.

He had a potion with him, she remembered.

Reaching into his pocket, he felt a sharp pain.

Yu Meng brought out the broken glass reagent tube. The bottle was broken, only there was an empty tube and Tan Yubai's wet bag.

He must have run into something and broken the bottle.

Yu Meng's heart sank. She could feel the man in her arms getting more and more agitated, more and more unable to control himself.

Finally, he bent his arm and placed his elbow on Yu Meng's stomach. He exerted a lot of strength.

Yu Meng fell to the ground after being hit by the punch. Suddenly, a bloody taste filled her throat. She pursed her lips and swallowed it back.

The man on the bed had unkempt hair, torn clothes, blood-red eyes, and powerful arms.

Yu Meng trembled upon seeing this.

She couldn't move from the pain, but the man wasn't going to let her go.

"Medicine..." He finally lost all sense of reason and fell off the bed, crawling in the direction of Yu Meng.

The wind blew against the eaves of the house, and the wooden door at Yu Meng's back that couldn't be closed creaked open. Yu Meng looked at this completely unfamiliar man in front of her. He was getting closer and closer to her.

An invisible killing intent suddenly shrouded the room. This danger had already filled the entire room. Yu Meng could smell it, but her body was stiff and she could not move at all.

She looked at the man and suddenly reached for her hand, bloody and deadly.

"Err …"

This was the last sound that Yu Meng could make. Her face became paler and paler, until it was almost transparent.

Yu Meng thought she was going to die. She had never been so quiet before. She was a little scared, but even though she was crying, she couldn't make a sound.

Her tears fell without a sound, falling onto the hand on her neck where the veins were bulging.
