Of course, Lu Huaiyu remembered.
That day, she had drank red wine and gotten extremely drunk. She had called him and asked him in a soft voice why he had not picked her up yet.
Therefore, he had flown directly from the Capital to Hong Kong City.
However, that had not been all. The young girl had dug an even bigger hole for him.
She had asked him to help her take a shower and then she had said in a considerate manner that she did not need to wash her hair today.
Just because of this sentence, he had almost failed to step out of the Gu family’s house.
The next day, he had confronted her and questioned her. For once, she had shown a rare moment of guilt and blushed, as she mumbled that it had been a dream.
In her dream, she had been sick, and he had fed her medicine and taken care of her daily needs.
He laughed.
“Didn’t you say that I would be fierce to you if you didn’t want to take the medicine?”
Shen Li looked into his eyes and shook her head.
“You didn’t yell at me. In fact, you hugged me and coaxed me for a long time.
“It was a very, very long dream.”
It was so long that it was engraved in her memory and had spread to her bones and blood, making it impossible to forget.
As if she had thought of something, the corners of her lips curved up slightly.
“Just now, you said that you had been looking for me for a year and that you had, fortunately, run into me in the end. Actually… It wasn’t because of luck. That night, I had purposely refused to go back to Yunzhou with Su Yuan and stayed on in Lincheng. It was because I had that dream three days before leaving for Lincheng. In the dream, I had gone back with her that day, but we got into a multiple-car accident on the highway. My right hand lost a part of its function forever, and I couldn’t draw anymore.”
The smile in Lu Huaiyu’s eyes gradually faded.
“After that, I never held an oil painting brush again.”
Her voice was soft and self-deprecating.
“I couldn’t accept this, so I chose to run away and deliberately distanced myself from my senior brothers, gradually losing contact with them. Even when Master died of stomach cancer, I didn’t dare to enter the mourning hall to pay his respects.
“I couldn’t draw, and of course, I couldn’t drive. Uncle Wen asked me about it but I just said that I couldn’t drive it. Besides, after the incident at Yanhui Mountain, I really hadn’t touched a car again, and Uncle Wen never mentioned it again.
“Actually, my life in the Ye family wasn’t easy. Ye Cheng even scratched my face on the first day. The Ye family didn’t welcome me, and Su Yuan didn’t like me. But at that time, I thought that because she had taken me away, she was still willing to accept me again after abandoning me for eleven years. I thought that perhaps it was not because she didn’t love me, but because she had her own difficulties.
“So, I thought that as long as I did well enough, the gap between us would eventually disappear. Besides, Ye Ci was very kind to me at that time. She lent me her gown, took me to class with her, and even spoke up for me in front of Su Yuan.”
She smiled, a seemingly half-mocking smile.
All those years, poor acting skills and calculating schemes had been intertwined into an illusory dream. She had found herself deeply trapped in it, unable to distinguish herself.
“It was only later that I found out that she was the one who had worn the gown and spread the rumors about me in Second High School. As for her standing up for me in front of Su Yuan, it only made Su Yuan see just how selfish and unpresentable I, the daughter she saw as a disgrace, was when compared to Ye Ci.
Clank.
Lu Huaiyu put down the coffee cup, which landed on the plate with a soft sound.
“I thought they wanted me to do well, but I didn’t know that getting first place in the exams was enough to make Ye Ci go crazy with jealousy. I took her along to participate in the physics competition, I helped her make notes and made a summary. In the end, I was reported for cheating in the competition, which everyone found out about and caused my reputation to be ruined.”
“In the end, Ye Ci changed my college entrance examination choice to an ordinary university in the province. I only found out about this after the file was submitted. But at that time, Su Yuan had cried and said that she just wanted me to stay by her side and spend more time with her. ”
So finally, she had compromised.
The corners of her lips twitched.
“In the dream, I still refused to open my eyes to see the truth even at that time. I must’ve been really hopeless, right? ”
Lu Huaiyu’s throat was tight.
“But that was not the end. It was the beginning of another nightmare. Since I couldn’t draw, I was depressed for a while. Later, I started to design haute couture gowns, which were much simpler than oil paintings, and those drafts were appreciated by G&S. But in the end, it was Ye Ci who had appeared at the press conference.”
At this point, she stopped and remained silent for a long time.
Even though a long time had passed since that time, those memories still tormented her, tossing and turning in her mind.
“She was afraid that I would take back the drafts and was even more afraid that I would expose the truth, so she found an opportunity to send me to a sanatorium.
“I lived there for a few years, but I’m not sure about the exact time because I was unconscious most of the time. Sometimes it was because of sleeping pills, sometimes it was sedatives, and sometimes… both.”
Lu Huaiyu suddenly felt as if something had stabbed his heart. An indescribable, dense, and intense pain spread throughout his body.
“I tried to escape, but it was very difficult. At that time, in order to come back to attend his grandmother’s funeral, Ah Mian had missed his best opportunity to make his debut. He had also rejected Tao Siwen’s unspoken advances, so he was deliberately suppressed by his management company and manager. Ultimately, he couldn’t even protect himself. When Ji Shu found out that something had happened to me, he drove his motorcycle to look for me on one rainy night but he got into a car accident and died on the spot.”
Her eyelids drooped slightly, as her voice seemed to float in the air.
“It was my fault, all of that was my fault.”
If only she had been alert earlier, if only she had woken up earlier-
After a moment of silence, she finally looked up at Lu Huaiyu again.
“At the end of the dream, I found an opportunity to steal the cleaner’s phone and called you.
“Actually, I didn’t know if you would come at that time, but in the end, you still came.”
She turned her gaze slightly and swept it across the room slowly. The corners of her lips curled up.
“You brought me back here.”
Lu Huaiyu’s fingers trembled slightly.
Her smile was light, like the light floating on the water, as if it would be blown away by the wind at any time.
“Even though my body was not in good condition at that time, you were very patient. You brought me into the room, talked to me, and slept beside me. The most troublesome thing was when you had to get me to take the medication, but you were never been angry. I was lying when I said you were fierce to me. ”
Lu Huaiyu’s Adam’s apple bobbed. Each word that came out of his mouth seemed to come out with great difficulty.
“What happened after that?”
What happened after that?
Shen Li was silent for a moment, then she smiled and said, “After that, I woke up from the dream.”
Lu Huaiyu looked at her fixedly, as if he was looking into the deepest part of her heart.
“Then, how did you get through to that phone call?”
Shen Li paused and turned her eyes to the living room.
Lu Huaiyu continued to ask, “Did you find that business card in your dream?”
She shook her head and looked at the cup of coffee between the two.
She seemed to be trapped in a distant memory and seemed a little lost in thought.
After a long time, she finally said, “In the dream, I didn’t take back that backpack. But…
“You gave me your number a second time.”
