Ye Chu remembered the car accident and the heat wave surging towards her. At the moment before she died, she only saw Lu Huai's dark eyes.
After that banquet, what did Lu Huai want to tell her? She would never know again.
She seemed to have a long dream.
She closed her eyes, not knowing where she was. Voices rushed to her ears densely, as if someone was discussing something.
"Don't you know? I heard that the Foreign Minister's daughter was chasing Lu's Third Young Master."
"Young Master Lu is very busy, and Miss Song Wu is still blocking him everywhere. Although women are chasing men's gauze, she is too much."
"Speak down, Song Qianru has such a violent temper. If she knows that we are talking about her, she might be angry."
"I'm not afraid of this. The Minister of Foreign Affairs sent someone from Nanjing to take Song Qianru back, so that she could think about it at home."
"Lu Sanshao is hard to find with a lantern. It's a pity that Luohua deliberately runs and water is ruthless, and he doesn't mean anything to Song Qianru."
"..."
Ye Chu opened his eyes laboriously, but saw her sitting in a cafe, her head supported with one hand, her arms a little sore.
The furnishings here are familiar. Ye Chu remembers that the store closed down before she left Shanghai.
It is strange, is she dreaming, or is she born again
The aroma of coffee was overflowing everywhere. The girl at the next table was chatting about the gossip between Lu Sanshao and Song Wu. The phonograph was playing the most popular song...
Everything in front of me is not an illusion.
She was really reborn if she wanted to come.
In the last life, Ye Chu just barely changed his ending in the book, and most of the plot still follows the original trend.
If she had returned to the Ye family and had not fallen, would her mother still be living in Ye Mansion
Thinking of this, Ye Chu immediately got up and ran to the service desk, the little leather shoes on his feet clattering. When the waiter saw her coming, he picked up a packing box with a very cordial tone.
"Miss Ye Er, the cake you ordered is ready."
Ye Chu asked anxiously, "Can I borrow the phone?"
"Can."
Ye Gongguan's telephone is very familiar to Ye Chu. There was no response on the other end of the phone, and it took a long time for someone to answer it.
"Hello."
This is the voice of the mother.
Ye Chu's nose was sour, and his eyes became hot, suppressing his crying: "Mother..."
"A Chu, what's the matter?" Su Lan laughed on the other side when he heard Ye Chu's voice, "I'm still waiting, you said you would give me a surprise in the evening."
Ye Chu remembered that when she was sixteen, she heard from her classmates that a new cafe was opened here. She came to order the cake specially, in order to give her mother a taste.
"Yeah! The mother must wait for me at home, A Chu will be back soon." Ye Chu's voice was crisp, with a girlish beauty.
"It's getting late, you must be careful." Su Lan was a little worried, "Should the driver come to pick you up?"
"No, I will go home now."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Chu thanked the waiter, took the cake, picked up the small bag and left the cafe.
When I went out, it was already dark. Fortunately, Shanghai was energized early, with street lights shining on both sides of the road, and the ground was bright.
The coffee shop was not near or far from Ye Mansion. Ye Chu took a shortcut and entered a small alley, wanting to go home to see his mother.
The alley was dark, there happened to be no moon tonight, and the road was indistinguishable. Ye Chu quickened his pace, wanting to walk to a place with light.
A faint blood came from behind, and she thought someone was following her. Ye Chu didn't know the identity of the person, so she paused slightly when the person stopped.
Will that person attack her next second
Staying vigilant at all times was a habit that Ye Chu had cultivated in his life.
After stopping for a few seconds, Ye Chu squinted his eyes as the person behind moved his feet. He clenched his fists in an instant, bent his elbows and slammed into his back, mercilessly.
The person behind him turned sideways, Ye Chu's eyes flashed, and instead of retracting his fist immediately, he turned his elbow and turned to hit the person in the face.
Ye Chu still didn't succeed. The more the person evaded, the more the bloody smell became stronger. Obviously, he was seriously injured, but the person's speed remained unabated.
The man grabbed Ye Chu's hand, and Ye Chu used his strength to fight back. Ye Chu didn't let his guard down because the man was injured.
When they attacked each other with the same moves, both sides were taken aback.
At the moment Ye Chu hesitated, the man clasped Ye Chu's hands tightly, and the knife was pressed against Ye Chu's neck, and the thin blade pressed against Ye Chu's blood vessel.
A voice colder than the blade rang in his ears.
"Don't make a noise."
Even though the person deliberately lowered his voice and changed his original voice, Ye Chu immediately knew his identity.
He is Lu Huai.
In the last life, although Ye Chu and Lu Huai were fake couples, she was familiar with those moves.
Because the fighting technique that Ye Chu used to attack him just now was taught by Lu Huai.
Ye Chu met Lu Huai here, but it hadn't happened before. Probably because of her rebirth, some things will go wrong.
At this time, Ye Chu heard the footsteps coming from a short distance, chaotically, they seemed to be looking for something. She immediately understood the situation.
As the son of a warlord, Lu Huai was often in danger, and it was commonplace to be followed. Ye Chu didn't need to ask too much to understand that the group of people was probably looking for him.
The sound of footsteps approached again, and the light from the flashlight came and probed here. Someone over there is asking: "What are you doing?"
The knife was as cold as its owner, with a cold touch on Ye Chu's neck, and Lu Huai's voice was chilling.
"You know what to do."
Ye Chu smiled instead, but there was no fear in his voice: "I know."
How to deal with it? Pretend to be friends? Brother and sister? still…
No, ordinary friends won't show up here at night, and if they are brothers and sisters, they can't stop those people from coming to check. Unless, they have a reason not to come...
In the next second, she raised her voice: "Deng the apprentice, I want to take advantage of others!"
"Shameless rascal! Bastard!"
Because of the knife on her neck, Ye Chu seriously scolded the person in front of her.
Even though it was in the dark and couldn't see each other's faces, Ye Chu's curse voice was very clear, word by word came into Lu Huai's ears.
Lu Huai was startled, tilted his head, and smiled.
Ye Chu's conversation turned, and his tone of voice became a little more delicate.
"Didn't you hear what my dad said? Don't have anything to do and ran down to my house in the future. All the flowers that I gave were already thrown away."
The knife on Ye Chu's neck was loose, but it was always not far from his neck, and it had a deterrent effect.
The people over there thought it was a young couple arguing, so they only stretched their heads here, but haven't come over yet.
The voice of the incoming person eased, with a bit of joke in the words, and shouted from a distance: "Miss, you stand so close to the gangster, do you need us to help you?"
Seeing that their steps were getting closer again, Ye Chu stomped his feet in a hurry.
"What to see, be careful my boyfriend beats you."
"Are you boyfriend and girlfriend?"
The man was a little slapped, and he had never seen such a relationship.
"It's a new era now. Why don't we invite people to talk about friends? No matter how much we care about, are we going to show you intimately on the spot!"
Ye Chu looked unforgiving, and the visitor hurriedly said.
"Sorry, you continue." The visitor waved his hand. Fortunately, it was blocked by the shadow of the tree, and the faces of the two of them could not be seen clearly.
Lu Huai didn't say a word, and the man's flashlight continued to probe, as if he still didn't believe it.
Ye Chu swept with his left light, gritted his teeth, as if he had made some decision.
I saw that Ye Chu leaned forward, stretched his hands forward, and closed his palms behind Lu Huai's neck.
Lu Huai was much taller than Ye Chu, forcing Ye Chu to stand on tiptoe, she was only a few inches away from Lu Huai's ears.
"Don't move, this is just acting." Ye Chu knew that Lu Huai didn't like physical contact with people, and said in a low voice in his ear.
When Ye Chu pretended to hug Lu Huai, his body stiffened, but he didn't have any extra movements, his fists were pinched, hanging down beside Ye Chu.
Ye Chu's voice raised a little, not light or heavy, and it was understood by the person on the other end.
"Forget it, lest outsiders see the joke, I will reluctantly forgive you."
