Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When she snapped back to reality, her hand had already touched the man’s arm. The man stopped in his tracks and looked back at her in confusion.
Their eyes met. Xu Weilai saw an unfamiliar face and was stunned.
The man looked at her and after confirming that she wasn’t someone he knew, he said, “Miss, what’s the matter?”
It was in standard pronunciation English.
Xu Weilai snapped back to reality and let go her hand. She smiled apologetically and replied in English, “I’m sorry, I mistook you for someone else.”
When the man was far away, Xu Weilai stared at his back in a daze for a while. Then, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and turned to leave.
There was a black car parked on the opposite side of the road. The man in the backseat looked sideways and saw everything. It wasn’t until Xu Weilai got into his car and drove away that he retracted his gaze. The corners of his lips curled into an ambiguous smile.

After Xu Weilai returned to her apartment, she hugged her computer and sat on the sofa while sorting out the interview materials for today.
However, what she saw with her eyes were those materials, but what echoed in her ears were the words that CEO Chen had said to her. Every sentence lingered in her ears.
The reason she was determined to go abroad was simply because she knew that it wouldn’t be easy for her to let go. She wanted time and space, but... even though they were so far away, he seemed to still be around her in all sorts of ways.
Xu Weilai’s thoughts were disrupted. She was frustrated and couldn’t continue working. She moved the computer away from her lap and stood up to find other things in the house to distract her attention.
However, the house was extremely clean and everything was tidy. Even the potted plants that she raised were watered and trimmed properly.
She had done everything that she could in the past few days. There was really nothing she could do now.
She could only change into her sportswear and go out to exercise.
She ran along the path and ran for a long distance. She was covered in sweat and when she ran back, it was already late at night. The place where she lived was close to the suburbs. The wind was very strong and it blew all over her body.
When she returned to her residence, she took a shower and fell asleep immediately.
She hadn’t had a dream for a long, long time. That night, when she was sleeping soundly, she actually had a dream...
Actually, it wasn’t a dream because it was something that had happened to her before. It was a memory of the past, from her university days.
At that time, she had already been dating Gu Yu for a long time and their relationship had gradually sweetened. She had an opportunity for an after-school internship and was asked to interview a couple who refused to move.
At that time, she lacked a person to carry a video camera for her, so she dragged Gu Yu to work for her.
The area where the couple lived was completely demolished, and only their family refused to move out. Xu Weilai initially thought that they were insatiable and asked for an exorbitant price, but after the interview, she found out that it wasn’t because of money at all, it was because they were waiting... for their lost child.
Their child got lost when he was young. All these years, they had thrown everything they had and sold everything they had. They had spent all their savings and looked for their child everywhere, because when the child was lost, he already had a certain amount of memories. They couldn’t find the child, but they hoped that the child would be able to remember their home and come back.
At that time, the mother held Xu Weilai’s hand and as she wept, said that her child would already be as old as Xu Weilai was now. If he was still alive.
