It was late at night. For safety reasons, everyone stayed in a suite. The three bedrooms were left for the three women and one child. The men were all squeezed in the living room.
"After this incident, I want to hold the wedding as soon as possible."
Gu Sinian's voice was particularly clear in the dark living room.
After a while, another voice came from the sofa. "I hope so too."
"Let's hold the wedding together. A long night is fraught with problems."
"Okay."
Ling Han flipped over, and it was a little strenuous for him.
"How's your leg?" Gu Sinian asked again.
After a few seconds of silence in the dark, Ling Han's cold voice came. "It's not a big deal. I'll treat it after this incident is over."
Ling Han had been trapped in the cold pool for too long. The degree of necrosis of the muscles in his leg was far greater than his. Gu Sinian had stayed in the cold pool before and knew what it was like.
After an unknown amount of time, Ling Han's voice came from the living room again. It was a bit nasal and very dull. "If it can't be cured, I won't force Yan Yan to stay by my side."
Gu Sinian was slightly stunned. "What do you mean? Do you think Yan Yan will dislike you? "
"No." Ling Han took a deep breath. "I'm the one who despises myself for not being able to protect her. If I stay by her side, I'll only be a burden to both of us. I owe her too much. It wasn't easy for her to have a chance to start over. She shouldn't ruin it on me."
Gu Sinian's face darkened. Just as he was about to speak, a figure flashed in front of Ling Han faster than him and punched him in the face.
A muffled groan came from the darkness.
"Second Miss has waited for you for so many years. You want to leave just because you say that you shouldn't ruin it for her? You have a burden? Is that what you're saying? "
"Gu Chi."
Gu Sinian suddenly sat up from the sofa and looked at the figure not far away in surprise.
Gu Chi's figure was thin, but his skills were good. With one punch, Ling Han could only feel that his mouth was full of the taste of blood, and he couldn't speak.
"It's the same for the previous few times. You said you wanted to make it up to the Second Miss, but what you did, whether it was breaking up with the Second Miss, marrying Miss Gu Duo, or suddenly disappearing from the Four Seasons Villa, messing up your company and implicating the villa, which one of those things did you really make it up to her?"
Gu Chi tugged at Ling Han's collar, his face livid. "What's so good about a self-righteous man like you? Second Young Miss must be blind to be so devoted to you. "
"Gu Chi, let go." Gu Sinian hurriedly got up, but because his legs were still weak, he couldn't get up to help.
In the darkness, his voice was particularly cold, accompanied by a series of warnings.
Gu Chi clenched for a while, and then angrily let go. He said coldly, "If you still have any feelings for the Second Miss, you shouldn't say that you want to let go. Don't think that you're great because you're in pain. You're scum for saying such words."
After letting go of Ling Han, Gu Chi turned back and sat on his single sofa.
Ling Han relaxed his body and looked up. The living room was dark, but he could feel a chill penetrating through the darkness. It came from Gu Chi's eyes, as if it was going to cut him into a thousand pieces.
"Enough. Why are you still fighting at this time? Go to bed early. We still have to find a way to enter the villa tomorrow."
Gu Sinian's voice broke the silence. He turned on the light and looked at Ling Han. "Go to the bathroom and take care of it. It's bleeding."
Ling Han nodded slightly, felt for the crutches on the sofa, and got up to walk to the bathroom.
With a "pa" sound, the bathroom light was turned on, and a man with a face full of blood and dirt was reflected in the mirror.
His beard was unshaven, his face was haggard, and there were some white hairs on his temples. He looked very old.
Six years ago, after Ye Huanyan left, Ling Han rarely looked in the mirror. In the years when she wasn't around, he didn't seem to have a sense of time. He aged very quickly, as if a lifetime could pass in an instant.
During those years, he recalled almost all the details between them.
There weren't many that could be called good memories. Almost all of them were covered by the more than a year of mutual torture, and were crushed to pieces.
"Huala" The sliding door of the washroom suddenly opened a crack, and a pink figure flashed in from the outside. The moment she saw him, the smile in her eyes froze, and there was some astonishment on her face. "What happened to your nose?"
Ling Han was slightly stunned. He touched his nose and felt blood. He pretended to be calm and said, "Oh, it's just a nosebleed. It's not a big deal."
"That's too much, isn't it?"
Ye Huanyan exclaimed and pulled out a tissue in a hurry. She pressed on Ling Han's shoulders and forced him to sit on the toilet. "Sit down. Raise your head and don't move."
Ling Han sat down obediently and raised his head to look at the ceiling. He let her take the tissue and mess with his face. He didn't make a sound when she touched the place that hurt, as if he was numb to the pain.
"Why did you come out? Can't sleep? " He asked in a muffled voice. "I heard you guys talking about something in the living room, but I couldn't hear it clearly. I couldn't sleep, so I came out to take a look. My brother said you went into the bathroom, so I followed you."
Ye Huanyan's response was so casual that Ling Han couldn't tell if she heard what he said before.
"The heater is too high. Did you not drink water for the past two days? Why are you so heaty?"
Ye Huanyan muttered as she crumpled the blood-stained tissue into a ball and threw it into the trash can.
Ling Han suddenly hugged her waist and looked up at her. They were very close, but his gaze was distant, as if he was looking at something unattainable.
Ye Huanyan patted the hand on her waist and said in a low voice, "What are you doing?"
"Yan Yan, I regret it."
"Huh?" Ye Huanyan frowned and looked puzzled. "What regret?"
"I regret everything."
Ling Han said in a hoarse voice. "I didn't treat you well when I met you. I regret that I didn't express my feelings to you earlier after you graduated. I regret that I forced Jiang Meilan's mistake on you. I regret that I tortured you for more than a year. I regret that I thought you were dead so easily. I regret …"
There were too many regrets. He was treading on thin ice and trembling with fear.
He was afraid that when he woke up last night, it would all be a dream again.
He couldn't believe that such a terrible person like him would have a chance to start over with her again.
He was very afraid. He was very afraid that happiness would be short-lived and that there would be more pain waiting for him and them.
"At the end of the day, you regret meeting me."
Ye Huanyan interrupted him, her expression as calm as water.
"No."
Ling Han quickly refuted …
Ye Huanyan looked at him with a serious expression. "What you said is the unhappiness between us, but no one can be happy forever. You regret the memories between us, even if it's just a small part of it. That's denying my existence. If I hadn't appeared, none of this would have happened."
You are still you, and I am still me. We don't owe each other anything.
