Yan Lui clenched his fists and remained silent.
"Yan Lui, you are not dead and safe. I am very happy, just like to an old friend. I hope you have a good life. As for the ignorant emotions in the past, they are long gone. My feelings for Chu Zhaoyang are not ignorant. He and I are different from what we were back then. Our relationship was cut off before it developed. But it was logical for me and him, everything happened so naturally, and our relationship became deeper and deeper."
"Are you blaming me, blaming me for lying to you, blaming me for faking death and leaving for the sake of a better future?" Yan Lui asked, grabbing Gu Nian's arm.
Gu Nian shook her head: "No. It's just because I love him. No matter who comes, my feelings for him will not change. Even if you didn't cheat on me, even if you left for some reason and you come back, my love for him will still be the same. It had to be him."
The words were sarcastic, but wasn't that because he left?
If he was still here, how would Chu Zhaoyang have any chance!
"If we were already in love at that time and you pretended to be dead and left without saying a word, and then showed up again today, maybe I would be angry. But at that time, our relationship was ignorant and we didn't have time to invest too much. It was like... the youthfulness of youth. The memory is the same. So, I don't blame you, really."
Gu Nian took off his coat and handed it back to Yan Lui: "The past is in the past. We will still be friends and colleagues from now on. I'm glad you can come back."
After saying that, Gu Nian turned around and left.
Yan Lui stared at Gu Nian's back stiffly until she disappeared behind the door. Yan Lui suddenly raised his clothes and was about to throw them away, but stopped halfway, put the coat into his arms again, lowered his head and smelled. It seemed that Gu Nian's body temperature and fragrance remained on it.
Yan Lui stayed on the rooftop and smoked half a pack of cigarettes.
There were twisted cigarette butts all around his feet, as well as bits of cigarette ashes that had not been completely blown away by the wind.
He threw down a cigarette butt again, crushed the fire under his feet, moved his hands and feet, and prepared to go down.
As a result, at the door, the door opened and Yan Chuwei walked over.
Both of them were a little surprised. Even with such a strong wind, Yan Chuwei could smell the strong smell of smoke on Yan Lui's body, and she couldn't help but frown.
"Why are you still smoking when you are injured?" Yan Chuwei said disapprovingly, with the severity of an eldest sister.
"Why did you come up here?" Yan Lui asked instead without answering.
"I heard someone said that you and Gu Nian came to the rooftop, but it turns out that Gu Nian has gone back. You haven't gone back yet, so I came up to take a look." Yan Chuwei looked him up and down, "Why, you started to struggle with your feelings as soon as you came back?"
Yan Lui tightened his chin and said displeasedly: "Don't worry about my affairs."
Yan Chuwei slammed the door and said angrily: "Then what's so good about Gu Nian? She's the only one for you two? You're going through life and death outside, what about her? She's just a fool here, and she's been with others a long time ago. What's there to miss about a woman like this!"
"She thought I was dead, and all of you thought I was dead. If I were really dead, would I still be tied to her for the rest of my life?" Yan Lui looked over sternly.
"Okay, you were the one who was dumped, but you are here to help her speak up." Yan Chuwei taunted in a strange way, "Let me tell you, long before Gu Nian and Chu Zhaoyang got together, at that time we all thought you were dead. Gu Nian said that she has no feelings for you. She has never liked you from the beginning to the end!"
"That's enough!" Yan Lui looked at Yan Chuwei coldly, the anger in his eyes startled Yan Chuwei, and she took a step back unconsciously.
In the past, Yan Lui was laughing and joking all day long and was sunny and cheerful.
Even if he didn't agree with some of her views, he will still give in to her helplessly. When did he ever look at her with such a terrifying look?
"I'll say it again, you don't have to worry about my affairs. If you like Chu Zhaoyang, you should find a way on your own and don't corrupt Gu Nian here. I know very well what you have done to Gu Nian. If you do something to her again, you will be counted as. Even if you are my sister, and I won't let you go." Yan Lui warned in a deep voice.
Yan Chuwei was frightened by his eyes, which were cold and emotionless, like a wild beast that was always on the verge of death.
"I'm your sister!" Yan Chuwei shouted in disbelief.
"Just because you are my sister, I will warn you in advance." Yan Lui took a step closer to her, "You never know what I have gone through in the past year or so, and you don't want to know."
After saying that, Yan Lui turned around, opened the door and left.
Yan Chuwei shouted at his back: "Why! Yan Lui, why do you threaten me just for a bitch? How can you still kill me?"

After getting off work in the afternoon, as soon as Gu Nian left the police station door, she heard someone calling her from behind: "Gu Nian."
Hearing the voice, Gu Nian sighed and turned around to see Yan Lui walking towards her.
There were many colleagues around who were looking towards them as they walked.
"Are you going home?" Yan Lu walked up to her and asked.
"Yeah." Gu Nian nodded.
Yan Lui smiled: "No date?"
Gu Nian was a little surprised to see Yan Lui acting like this, but he didn't care as much as he did in the morning.
It seemed like he figured it out in just one day.
"He is on a business trip." Gu Nian answered truthfully.
"I'll send you then." Yan Lu said.
Just when Gu Nian was about to refuse, she heard Yan Lui say, "I also want to visit aunt."
"You have just come back. Please spend more time with your family. There is no need to rush to see my mother." Gu Nian said politely.
"The first thing I do when I come back is to visit a circle of people who care about me and let them know that I'm fine, and then I can calm down and spend time with my family." Yan Lui said with a smile.
He had become much calmer, but there was still a little bit of the sunshine in his smile, and there was no trace of the coldness he had with Yan Chuwei in the morning.
"Don't be polite to me. You also said that you treat me as a good friend. Aunt was very kind to me before and she was an elder I respected very much. When I came back, I went to see her immediately and let her know that I was fine. That's right. And I also want to apologize to her in person." Yan Lui said apologetically, "My parents also said that aunt was very sad for me at that time, which made me feel very guilty."
Without any explanation, he took Gu Nian's hand and pulled her towards the car.
Gu Nian struggled but failed to break away.
In front of so many colleagues, Gu Nian didn't want to make each other stand up, so he could only follow Yan Lui and said, "Yan Lui, let me go first, and I will follow you."
Yan Lui's movements froze for a moment, and then he slowly let go of her hand unnaturally.
"Xiaoman, you usually have such a good relationship with Gu Nian, what is her relationship with Yan Lui?" Someone asked gossiping, "Looking at how close they are, didn't Gu Nian have a boyfriend?"
Shen Xiaoman immediately said: "Gu Nian and Yan Lui were college classmates and good friends before. They have the same feelings as buddies. Don't make blind guesses."
Just when Gu Nian had to get into Yan Lui's Audi A8, a Bentlry slowly stopped behind him.
Chu Zhaoyang gripped the steering wheel and felt his heart getting cold.
He watched helplessly as Gu Nian was holding hands with a man.
Chu Zhaoyang recognized that man.
Yan Lui!
Ever since he learned about Yan Lui, Chu Zhaoyang went to check it out.
Having seen Yan Lu's photo, Chu Zhaoyang would never forget this person who had a place in Gu Nian's heart with just one glance.
Wassn't he dead?
Was this person really Yan Lui?
Chu Zhaoyang stared hard, and the blood all over his body went cold.
If...if it wasreally Yan Lui.
If he was not dead and he cameback, what will happen to Gu Nian?
The image of Gu Nian holding hands with him has been lingering in Chu Zhaoyang's mind.
The person Gu Nian has always been thinking about was back, and she even put herself in danger for the sake of Yan Lui.
Now that that person was back, could he fight for it?
Chu Zhaoyang gritted his teeth and stared straight ahead, his eyes bright red.
Yan Chuwei came out of the police station belatedly and was surprised to see Chu Zhaoyang's car parked on the side of the road. She was not sure yet, so she looked at the license plate number and confirmed that it was really Chu Zhaoyang's. Even if she was surprised, she have to go over and say hello.
Just when she had reached the car, Chu Zhaoyang didn't see her at all. He stepped on the accelerator and caught up with Yan Lui's car.
Yan Chuwei was so frightened that she almost fell back. Her face turned blue and white, and her eyes followed the rear of Chu Zhaoyang's car.
Yan Lui was very alert and noticed a car following him in the rearview mirror.
When he saw the Bentley and the license plate number clearly, Yan Lui's expression suddenly darkened.
Yan Lui had a sarcastic smile on his face, suddenly stepped on the accelerator, and the car rushed out.
Disregarding traffic regulations, he forced the cars on both sides to get out of the way, stepped on the brakes to let him pass, and kept honking their horns angrily.
