"Tomorrow or the day after …"
Why is he leaving in such a hurry?
Xu Wennuan's fingers involuntarily tightened around the glass of water. After a while, she managed to suppress her emotions and tilted her head as if Lu Bancheng's departure had nothing to do with her. As if she was simply finding an excuse to chat with him, she asked, "Will you come back after you settle down in America?"
His parents had been living abroad for a long time. Once he left, he would definitely move the family business overseas. At that time, other than her, who he couldn't get close to, there would really be no one worth implicating. At that time, he probably wouldn't come back.
Lu Bancheng lowered his eyes and thought quietly for a moment before answering honestly, "Maybe it's nothing important, so I won't come back."
Just as she thought, tonight was the last time they would see each other in this life.
Xu Wennuan's throat tightened even more, and her fingers that were holding the glass of water began to tremble. Afraid that she would lose her composure, she made up an excuse. "Um, I need to go to the bathroom. You can go back to the room first."
Then, without waiting for Lu Bancheng to respond, she quickly stood up and ran in the direction of the bathroom.
…
Xu Wennuan hid in the bathroom cubicle with her eyes closed. She stood there for a long time, unable to calm herself down.
She was in no condition to return to the room, so she took out her cell phone and texted Qin Zhi 'ai to tell her that she wasn't feeling well and had to go home first. Then, she opened the door of the bathroom, exited, and left the Majestic Clubhouse.
…
After Lu Bancheng returned to the room, he stayed there for about ten minutes. When Xu Wennuan didn't show any signs of coming back, he thought that she had another stomachache and was staying in the bathroom. When Qin Zhi 'ai came to find Gu Yusheng, he casually said to her, "I just ran into Nuannuan. She seems to be having stomach trouble, so she's in the bathroom."
Qin Zhi 'ai didn't think too much about it and replied honestly, "Nuannuan just texted me to say that she's not feeling well, so she's going home first."
Not feeling well … Lu Bancheng's eyebrows twitched when he heard that, but he didn't say anything else. After they left, he put down his glass, stood up, and walked out of the room.
…
It was difficult to hail a taxi at the entrance of the Majestic Clubhouse, so Xu Wennuan had no choice but to walk to the street ahead to hail a cab.
After walking for about two hundred meters, the phone in her pocket rang.
Xu Wennuan stopped in her tracks and searched for her cell phone. When she saw the caller ID, she opened her mouth slightly and answered the call.
"Where are you?"
Although Xu Wennuan was puzzled by his question, she still told him where she was.
"Wait for me. I'll be right there …" Xu Wennuan heard the sound of his footsteps. Perhaps he felt that his words were too abrupt, so he added, "I forgot to bring the medicine for your stomach. I'll bring it over to you. If you feel any pain tonight, you can take it."
Xu Wennuan returned to her senses and hurriedly replied, "Okay, I'll wait for you under the bridge."
…
After hanging up, he hurriedly pushed open the side door of the Majestic Clubhouse and ran to the roadside.
Following Xu Wennuan's instructions over the phone, he turned left and jogged about 200 meters before he saw the overpass she had mentioned. He looked left and right but did not see her figure.
