Wu Hao slowly raised his right hand to his eyes. He stared at his palm and recalled the 10 years he spent holding her hand.
He was clearly holding her hand very tightly. How could they have just held each other's hand for a while and then parted ways with each other?
Wu Hao looked at his palm and suddenly felt as if his body had been hollowed out. He had no strength left in him. He staggered and jumped off the railing. He fell on the roof and raised his hand to cover his face. His shoulders twitched and trembled.
That was the girl I loved, the girl I'd spent my entire youth in love with. How could I have lost her?
The three words' Xu Wennuan 'were always followed by Wu Hao's. She was Wu Hao's Xu Wennuan. How did she end up being someone else's?
On the quiet rooftop, amidst the whistling wind in the pitch-black night, Wu Hao sobbed softly as he thought about it.
Nuannuan, nuannuan …
A day earlier, Xu Wennuan had called Lu Bancheng at Nan Qing Bar.
Lu Bancheng had been alone in his wheelchair when he had returned home. Guoguo wasn't sure if she was imagining things, but she had felt that something was wrong with him. When she had pushed him to wash his hands, he had mistaken her makeup remover for hand sanitizer. When she had pushed him to the dining table, he had held his chopsticks the wrong way. When she had noticed that his bowl was empty, she had asked him if he wanted another bowl. She had called him "Brother Bancheng" several times, but he hadn't responded.
After dinner, Lu Bancheng had entered the study.
Guoguo had brought him a cup of coffee on the way there, but when she had seen him in a video conference, she had assumed that he was busy with some important work, so she hadn't disturbed him.
At 11 p.m., Guoguo had showered and was about to go to bed when she heard Lu Bancheng's phone ring.
Lu Bancheng hadn't brought his phone with him when he entered the study.
Guoguo searched for a while and found Lu Bancheng's phone on the coffee table. She then took it to the study.
She knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response. Guoguo pushed the door open, but before she could enter, she was choked by the thick smell of smoke in the room and coughed loudly.
Guoguo subconsciously took a few steps back. Two seconds later, she held her breath, pushed the door open, and entered the study.
Lu Bancheng sat in front of his desk with his head lowered, still taking big puffs from his cigarette. Cigarette butts of different lengths littered the desk.
"Brother Bancheng, why do you smoke so much?" Guoguo grumbled as she hurriedly ran to the balcony and opened the window. She then returned to Lu Bancheng and handed him the phone that was still ringing. "Brother Bancheng, you have a call."
Lu Bancheng raised his hand and stuffed the cigarette back into his mouth as if he hadn't heard anything.
Before he could take a drag, Guoguo reached out and took the cigarette away from his mouth.
Lu Bancheng frowned and slowly raised his head to look at Guoguo.
His eyes were red and his lips were pale. He stared at her for a while before asking slowly, "What's wrong?"
Guoguo felt suffocated. She had wanted to scold him for not taking care of himself, but she couldn't bring herself to say it. She looked down and pointed at her phone. "Phone."
"Oh." Lu Bancheng responded and slowly looked at his phone. When he saw the name on the screen, his expression froze for a moment. Then, he said, "Help me answer the phone and tell her that I'm taking a shower." Then, without daring to look at his phone again, he hurriedly turned his head away.
