'I never thought that I would see him again in my lifetime.'
2The three ladies locked themselves in the washroom. When Gu Ruochu peeped to see if Gu Zexi was still around, she could not see him anywhere. The frightened ladies returned from the washroom, looking no different than usual.
2They were in shock, and their faces were still a little hot.
2Chu Xinlan was in a bad mood. Gu Ruochu handed her a tissue and restrained herself from questioning her. Instead, she remembered that Chu Xinlan had suddenly vanished from the city three years ago without a trace.
2She had disappeared after breaking up with her boyfriend. However, wasn't Xinlan's boyfriend at that time Ye Heng? Where did this Gu Zexi come from?
2It was unbelievable!
2Gu Ruochu and her friends had always thought that Xinlan had left because of Ye Heng. They never expected her to have another boyfriend.
2"Are you feeling better?"
2After drinking a glass of water, Chu Xinlan finally calmed down. When she thought of her previous sorry state, she shyly pursed her lips. "I'm feeling much better."
2When she thought of Gu Zexi's devilish and raspy voice her heart was a mess.
2They had met unexpectedly on the movie set.
2The production team had been on a fifteen-minute break. Wang Gang did not know what had happened and instructed the staff to get back to work.
2"Xinlan, if you're not feeling well, I'll let the director know. You can go and get some rest."
2"No need."
2Gu Ruochu did not say anything else. Wang Gang had called her over to look at the newly released negatives.
2The scenes they shot afterward did not go well. Wang Gang could tell that Chu Xinlan was not in her usual state of mind, so he had no choice but to send everyone home early. Gu Ruochu decided to go to the hospital to see Jin Ye again.
2The hospital:
2Jin Ye took out an old photograph. There were two children in the picture. The little girl's smile was very bright, and the boy looked laid back as he grinned. He stood tall and lean.
2"I never thought that Gu Ruochu would be the person you were looking for. Why does she look so different from when she was young? I now believe that a woman changes eighteen times as she grows up." Su Ze clicked his tongue. "I was wrong to use the photograph to look for her. I couldn't find her no matter how hard I tried."
2"That's right. That's why I didn't recognize her when I first saw her." Jin Ye put the photo away, his eyes filled with a hint of laziness.
2"When we were young, Ruochu and I played together. Her brother had wanted to beat me up, but Ruochu brought him to play with me and even took this picture. I remember that her brother loved to take pictures."
2Jin Ye felt a myriad of emotions when he remembered the source of the photo However, Su Ze was perplexed. "Brother? Jin Ye, could you have remembered wrongly? Gu Ruochu doesn't have a brother. She only has an older adopted sister, Gu Yanwei. You still remember her, right?"
2"Impossible!" Jin Ye furrowed his brows and retorted, "This picture was taken by her big brother. How could I have remembered wrongly!"
2Su Ze probed, "Could it be that you're confusing her with someone else? After all, you've said that you were plagued with disasters and often fell ill when you were young. Perhaps you've been muddled by your illness and made a mistake."
2"That's impossible. I've always carried this photograph with me. There's no way I could have made a mistake." Jin Ye was now beginning to doubt himself. Was there something wrong with his memory?
2He was certain that Ruochu was the little girl he had played with when he was young. She had said that she would always be by his side.
2However, it had been impossible.
2But the memories from his past were still so beautiful.
2It's been hard on my friends who are pursuing the story. It's now the fourth watch of the day.
