Lu Yuchen didn’t know how long Xinluo could deceive himself.
It was as if he didn't know how long he could deceive himself.
On the seventh day, Xinluo finally walked out of the bedroom by herself and knocked on his study door.
He knew... his self-deception might have to end.
"Are you free? I... have something to ask you." Xinluo appeared outside the study door. After this period of recuperation, the injury on her leg was almost healed.
However, although the physical wounds healed, the heart was hurt beyond repair and could never be mended.
Even though Lu Yuchen would personally supervise her eating every day, she was losing weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The man was anxious.
Even though doctors say that pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy will indeed become thin due to poor appetite.
But he was still anxious.
"Come in and talk when you're free."
Lu Yuchen nodded and lowered his brows, not wanting Xinluo to see the sadness that flashed across his pretended indifferent pupils.
He stepped aside to let her in.
Xinluo lowered her head and walked into the study, so she naturally missed the emotions in his eyes.
The two of them sat down. They used to be such a close couple, but now they were speechless.
It was Lu Yuchen who spoke first, breaking the silence: "Just tell me what you want to say, I have other things to do."
As soon as he said it, he regretted it.
He obviously didn't mean that.
"Sorry, I won't keep you too long." Xinluo looked down at the slender white fingers and did not notice the annoyance in Lu Yuchen's eyes.
She clasped her hands together tightly. "I came here to ask you about the first personality... I know you don't want me to mention him. But..."
When Xinluo said this, her beautiful eyebrows had already been furrowed into a knot, and even breathing became difficult.
"He doesn't want me anymore."
She finally said this, and God knows how difficult it was for her to say it in person.
"That Lu Yuchen, he probably slept for too long and forgot about our feelings." Xinluo smiled bitterly and said in a rather self-deprecating tone.
"That's right. It's been four years. Four years is enough time to change a lot of things. Besides, I was the one who left him first."
Seeing the little woman in front of him saying these words in an extremely indifferent tone, pretending to be calm and composed, Lu Yuchen actually had the urge to tell her the truth.
This timid and lifeless Xinluo seemed to be drifting further and further away from the Xinluo in his memory.
Lu Yuchen's breathing stagnated and he almost couldn't hold it in anymore.
But Xinluo suddenly raised her eyes and showed a sweet smile that had not been seen for a long time.
"Yuchen, can I ask you for a favor? I... still want to see him."
Her smile is bright and moving.
Even though her palm-sized face looked thinner than before, it made her beautiful peach blossom eyes look even more watery.
"Okay." This time, Lu Yuchen agreed without thinking.
I didn't even ask her what she wanted to do after meeting that person.
"Thank you, Yuchen." Xinluo looked at him, and it seemed that his shadow could finally be seen in those peach blossom eyes that always haunted him.
The second personality curled the corners of his lips in self-mockery.
Unexpectedly, one day, he would need to use another self to make his Lolo look at him in the eye.
"Then I'll go back first and not disturb you. When you're done with your work and have time, just call me." Xinluo was about to get up, but was stopped by Lu Yuchen.
"No, right now."
Seeing the confusion in Xinluo's eyes, he explained: "Before I change my mind."
"… "
Xinluo lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
Lu Yuchen looked at her lowered head, his eyes unclear.
He looked at her deeply again, as if he wanted to engrave her appearance deep in his memory.
After a moment, Lu Yuchen took out the same dark pill as last time and swallowed it in front of Xinluo.
"Remember, you have forty minutes this time," he said before losing consciousness.
