Chapter 45 She Woke Up
"Someone went to see her?" He sat on the sofa, a hint of doubt and wariness in his eyes.
He stared intently at the surveillance footage on his phone screen, his brow furrowed, as if deep in thought.
Xiao Yun stood quietly beside him, answering solemnly, "It's... Tang Zhou." Upon hearing this name, he couldn't help but pause slightly, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.
He was no stranger to Tang Zhou; in fact, he was quite familiar with him.
During their last meeting, he had explicitly warned Tang Zhou to stay away from her, but Tang Zhou clearly did not take his words to heart and still chose to challenge his bottom line.
Thinking of this, his face gradually darkened, and a chill emanated from him, making people shudder.
"Shi Yue, Tang Zhou is an unfathomable person, hiding many secrets. He must have another purpose in approaching you. Guess what I found out when I investigated him last time?"
Fu Shiyue turned to look at him in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Xiao Yun said, "He was Tang Licheng's son, the one who jumped to his death. Back then, they discovered the jewelry radiation issue, and he had no other way out, so he ended his life to prove his innocence. What happened after that is unclear..."
"Are you saying that Tang Zhou's previous appearance was because of his father's matter?"
Fu Shiyue frowned.
Xiao Yun nodded and continued, "Yes, he may have been searching for evidence to prove his father's innocence, and your project may be one of the key clues in his investigation. That's why he approached you."
After a moment of silence, Fu Shiyue asked, "Bring him here."
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yun replied, "Let's not alert him yet. Let's continue to observe Tang Zhou's actions and see what he's up to. At the same time, we must also protect yourselves and the project's safety."
Fu Shiyue agreed and decided to keep a close eye on Tang Zhou's every move.
Just then, Xiao Yun's phone suddenly rang, breaking the peaceful atmosphere.
Xiao Yun hurriedly picked up her phone, and looking at the caller ID on the screen, a look of surprise and nervousness appeared on her face.
He quickly answered the phone, and a familiar voice came through. As the other person spoke, Xiao Yun's expression gradually became serious, as if he had heard some important news.
When he hung up the phone, a hint of emotion appeared in his eyes.
Fu Shiyue noticed Xiao Yun's change and asked curiously, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Xiao Yun took a deep breath and then slowly said, "Shi Yue, Shi Yun, she's awake..."
These words struck Fu Shiyue like a bolt from the blue, causing his heart to race instantly.
He stood up and stared at Xiao Yun in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard.
Fu Shiyue's voice trembled slightly, filled with excitement and anticipation: "Really? Is this true? I want to see her!"
He immediately stood up, ready to leave, but Xiao Yun stopped him.
Xiao Yun calmly said, "Wait a minute, he said her memory has returned, you need to be prepared..."
He listened, a self-deprecating smile playing on his lips: "Yes, maybe she hates me to the core, but I just want to see her..."
Despite his anxiety and worry, he still went.
In the ward, Xie Shiyun stood quietly by the window, wearing a loose hospital gown that made her look somewhat thin.
Her once delicate face had lost its radiance; her complexion was frighteningly pale, and her lips were parched from not drinking water for a long time.
Her hair was casually draped over her shoulders, as if lifeless. She was barefoot, seemingly isolated from the world. She silently gazed at the tall buildings outside the window and the endless stream of people below, her eyes revealing a trace of despair and helplessness.
She opened her mouth slightly, her voice low and hoarse: "Why...why is all this happening?" Her voice was filled with endless sorrow and confusion, as if questioning why fate was so unfair.
However, no one answered her question.
In the ward, there was only her lonely figure and endless silence.
The door was pushed open, and Fu Shiyue stood in the doorway, watching her back.
She had her back to him, but her eyes were looking out the window, as if they were in a different world.
A complex emotion flickered in his eyes, as if he were deep in thought.
Her silhouette, however, appeared resolute and lonely, as if telling the world that she harbored an unspeakable story deep within her heart.
It was as if their fate was already sealed, and they could not escape it.
He stood there quietly, watching her back as an indescribable emotion welled up inside him.
"You've come..." Xie Shiyun said weakly.
She remembered everything...
She was raised by Xie Shiyun when she was a child, and he took her away from her when she was young.
Because her parents left her forever, she has always been introverted, withdrawn, and quiet, a personality that is not well-liked.
But Fu Shiyue cherished her like a treasure, taking meticulous care of her.
From that point on, their relationship began to become complicated.
Although she is still young, a seed of love has already been planted in her heart.
As time went by, the seed gradually took root, sprouted, and grew strong.
Now, when she recalls these past events, a warm feeling wells up in her heart.
It turns out that she and Fu Shiyue shared such a deep connection. Those forgotten memories have now resurfaced in her mind.
But it reminded her that he was inextricably linked to the deaths of her parents.
She then realized that none of this was what he wanted.
Instead, it was guilt and apology.
I'm the only one who's deeply involved; I'm a complete fool...
Each step he took seemed to be arduous, heavy, and slow, as if he had used up all his strength; one step, two steps…
I gently hugged her from behind.
He was very tall, so he had to bend down slightly and gently rest his chin on the crook of her neck, feeling the warmth and softness of her body.
Longing spreads wildly and surges
"You're back..." he said softly, his voice trembling with anticipation. Her gaze was fixed on him, her eyes glistening with tears.
"I miss you so much..." he whispered, his voice full of tenderness and longing.
She didn't speak, but slowly pulled her hand away from him.
"Don't say things like that anymore, I'm tired of hearing it." She said calmly.
The distance between the two people is like that between the two most distant stars in the night sky; though they twinkle, they are separated by endless darkness.
They were so close, yet there seemed to be an invisible barrier preventing them from truly getting close.
The silence between the two was filled with an unspeakable awkwardness; the distance between them was an interweaving of time and space, a cruel twist of fate.
"Can we talk?" Fu Shiyue pleaded humbly, his voice filled with helplessness.
