MTL - I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses-Chapter 498 belated encounter

Chapter 498 A belated encounter

“Seven centimeters of scar, winding like a centipede, four times in the emergency room...every time, every time, I almost couldn’t survive..."

Seeing that Gu Chao's eyes were bloodshot and red, his jaw was tense, and even his fists were shaking unsteadily, Yanyi suddenly laughed "haha".

Probably because he knew it would be difficult to keep Wei Lan, his face turned purple with blood and tears, desolate and crazy, "I don't deserve it, and you don't deserve it even more!"

 “I will never give her to you again, never!”

 Gu Chao squeezed out these words through his teeth, and his fist was about to fall hard, but there was a rapid knock on the door: "Brother! Brother! No, no! There is no Sister Lan!"

"What's wrong?" Gu Chao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Yanyi's collar, "You didn't bring her? Where did you hide her? Tell me? Tell me!"

Yan Yi reacted even more than he did. He turned over and overturned Gu Chao who was on top of him. He took a sip of blood and opened the door and rushed out.

 Youlan saw Yanyi with a **** face outside the door, and was a little scared and resentful.

Youlan grabbed Yanyi and said, "You, you bad guy, where did you hide Sister Lan!"

Youlan still remembers that he was the one who took Wei Lan away in the first place.

Yanyi was anxious, so how could he find the time to explain to her?

Hands up and pushes the person away, Yanyi walks towards the balcony where he rested for the first time.

 The trays and water were all there, but no one was there.

Recalling Wei Lan's smiling face, Yanyi realized her abnormality.

How can someone who has been inert for two or three years become so happy just because of a dance?

Methods to confuse people!

 She is lying to him!

 “Wei Lan, Wei Lan!”

Yanyi muttered something. He searched the entire hotel and still couldn't find Wei Lan. He was completely panicked.

Wei Lan has rarely gone out in recent years and has basically been out of touch with the outside world. Yanyi can't imagine where she can go, let alone what she will become without him.

The streets were full of people coming and going, and Yanyi anxiously ran around in the crowd, "Wei Lan! Wei Lan - have you ever seen a girl so tall and beautiful wearing a cheongsam..."

He looked anxious and crazy, with blood all over his face. He grabbed people on the street and started asking questions. Passers-by just thought he was a madman and pushed him away in a hurry without answering his questions at all.

On the other side, Gu Chao had made arrangements in advance. When he blocked Yanyi, Xie Jinghong, You Lan and some of their men were looking for Wei Lan outside.

 You Lan was so panicked just after searching for a group of people but to no avail.

Through Yanyi's words and deeds, Gu Chao has confirmed that Wei Lan has indeed arrived at the banquet today. He originally thought that he would be safe in his own territory. Now that he has learned that Wei Lan disappeared out of thin air, Gu Chao is like a trapped animal in trouble again.

Hurrying all the way to the stairs above the hall, Gu Chao searched anxiously, but still did not see the familiar figure.

 “Look! Expand the scope and search! Ersan Commercial Street, Penzhou Road...”

While he was making arrangements in a panic, the door to the lobby on the first floor was suddenly pushed open by someone in his dream, and a slightly familiar man rushed in panting.

 It’s one’s own.

The man's eyes wandered around, and when he saw Gu Chao, he quickly pushed away the crowd and approached Gu Chao:

“Mr. Gu, we are heading towards the Shanghai-North Bridge!”

This person was originally posted in the lobby. When Wei Lan left, he noticed him and followed him all the way near the Shanghai-North Bridge. He hurried back to deliver the news for fear of delaying the official business.

 “Shanghai, Shanghai-North Bridge?!”

At the same time, on the other side, Yanyi murmured the same place name as Gu Chao.

During the time when the child was just sent away, Wei Lan was depressed for a time. One time, he ran barefoot to the Hubei Bridge late at night, stood on the bridge and cried and shouted hysterically...

Hubei Bridge, will it be on the Hubei Bridge?

Yanyi asked in his mind, he had already changed his pace and ran towards the inner harbor.

 The Shanghai-North Bridge is four kilometers long and crosses the entire inner harbor.

Wei Lan is weak and can't walk that fast. As long as, just a little faster, a little faster...



 “Wei Lan!”

Yanyi ran at great speed. I don’t know if it was because of the wind pouring into his eyes, but water appeared and moistened the corners of his eyes.

He shouted Wei Lan's name, feeling hesitant, panicked, and heartbroken.

   *

Wei Lan is indeed at the Shanghai-North Bridge.

But she looked very different from her elegant look when she attended the banquet. Her hair was disheveled, her silk top hat had long since disappeared, and her high heels affected her walking speed, and she had long been abandoned on the roadside.

With a slight smile on her pretty face, she sometimes trotted with her hands spread out, sometimes walked in circles, and was not angry even when she bumped into pedestrians and was called "madman" or "sick".

Wei Lan smiled heartily as she felt the wind blowing over her face and body, raising her black hair.

Like Yanyi said, the laughter was as clear and crisp as the chirping of a bird that woke up early in the morning.

 Wei Lan just felt relaxed.

 The openness after taking off the shackles and disguise!

 It is unprecedented openness!

 She is finally freed!

 “Pfft…hahaha…”

Wei Lan’s peach blossom eyes curled up and she smiled happily.

 Walking barefoot all the way, her delicate white feet were already stained with blood. She seemed to know no pain and ran towards the center of Da Qiao without hesitation.

 “Wei Lan!”

 When Yanyi found Wei Lan, she had already climbed over the guardrail of the bridge. The passing large cargo ship stirred up the airflow, and the sharp wind lifted her long hair, and her black hair flew in the air, giving her a messy and desolate beauty.

 A kind of beauty that makes Yanyi dare not take a second look.

"Don't move! Don't move...Stand there and don't move, wait for me to come, wait for me to come!"

Wei Lan turned around and saw Yan Yi holding his hands on his chest, flustered and at a loss, wishing he could kneel down like her.

Wei Lan was stunned for a moment, then turned sideways and smiled at him.

Her movement shocked Yanyi to the point where he didn't dare to take another step forward, for fear that he would fall if she took another step.

"Wei Lan, be obedient... Hold on to the railing, huh? Hold on to the railing..."

 “Yanyi…”

Wei Lan originally wanted to leave alone, but Yanyi caught up with him again.

“I originally wanted to be Mrs. Yan, but I can’t...” After a brief moment of confusion, Wei Lan leaned on the railing and looked calmly at the ships passing by on the river in the distance, “I can’t do it.”

 “But I don’t hate you, really, Yanyi.”

She pursed her lips and smiled and looked back at Yanyi, her peach blossom eyes curved into bright little crescents, as warm as light, "I will never forget the way you accompanied me when the wound was infected and swollen and I couldn't even speak... "

 “I will remember you, always remember you.”

Her eyes were serious and her brows were clear, as if she wanted to carve the man in front of her into her heart.

 From beginning to end, he regarded her as the shadow of another person.

 He doesn't love her.

 But he imprisoned her for being so cruel.

 But he was very kind to her...

 What a contradiction indeed.

Wei Lan chuckled and turned away.

  I don’t want to worry about right and wrong.

 I don’t want to continue to be someone else’s shadow.

  I don’t even want to engage in meaningless hatred.

 However, forgiveness and tolerance always come at the cost of torturing yourself.

 She was tired and didn’t want to repeat it endlessly.

"Stop talking, stop talking... I'll take you back to the capital, take you back to the capital! Boy, don't you want to see that kid? Wei Lan, Wei Lan! Look, look, vote! Go to the capital I have bought all the tickets, and I will send you back, Wei Lan..."

Yanyi took out the two tickets from his pocket with trembling hands, praying for Wei Lan's forgiveness and her change of heart.

What he thought was "it's still too late", "there's still a chance", "it's not too late"... Is it really still too late?

How can a heart full of holes and lost expectations for life and the world be healed by a few words?

 “Since you are here, let’s say goodbye.”

"No... don't do this!" Yanyi's pupils shrank suddenly, and he could only see the fluttering figure, "I was wrong, I was wrong... Wei Lan, the last time, we agreed, this is the last time..."

Yanyi regretted it, regretted it like never before.

 He will send her back, not in a few days, but now, now!

 But as he was talking, he suddenly remembered that night, when he said "for the last time", Wei Lan's expression showed when he repeated his words.

Smiling brightly…

It turns out that the "last time" she recited actually meant this.

Wei Lan smiled slightly and stroked her long hair back, and softly said sadly: "Goodbye Yanyi..."

 “This time I am not Mrs. Yan, I am myself.”

"I want to be myself, I want to do what I want to do, I want to pursue freedom and dreams..."

 In the dream, the spring was bright and beautiful, the grass was green, there was her, Xiaochen, and Jiaojiao...

After the words fell, before Yan Yi had time to react, Wei Lan let go of the railing with her little hands and leaned back, "From now on, forget me!"

Her voice was picked up by the wind and scattered in the wind.

 The body leaned back, and as it fell, the lips and teeth moved slightly, and the clean eyebrows and eyes smiled like flowers at Yanyi, as if they were not afraid of life or death.

The wind was so loud that Yanyi couldn't hear what she said, but he knew what she wanted to express.

  She said: I am free.

 So, does death mean freedom to her?

 Was it so painful for her to stay with him?

 So he was so decisive without any hesitation.

"Wei..." His pupils shrank suddenly, and Yanyi stumbled forward, reaching out to grab it, but someone was one step faster than him.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

 The woman's body fell rapidly, the strong wind lifted her hair, and her half-covered face could be vaguely seen with her eyes closed with a smile.

 For some reason, that snowy night came to Gu Chao's mind.

 The young girl awkwardly stepped on the single-plank bridge and fell into the abyss because it was slippery...

 Fortunately, he caught her at that time.

 But this time…

The rushing sea made a huge splash, quickly engulfing Wei Lan.

How desperate and disappointed one must be to die without hesitation and fear...

 “Wei Lan—!”

Gu Chao was heartbroken and jumped over the guardrail without any consideration.

In the eyes of passers-by, they only saw that after the first woman jumped off the Shanghai-North Bridge, two more men in suits and leather shoes climbed over the guardrail and jumped off.

"Oh my God! Call the police! Call the police! Someone committed suicide, someone jumped into the sea!"

The timid passerby screamed, his legs were so weak that he could no longer walk due to the series of jumps into the sea.

   *

The moment her body fell into the sea, Wei Lan relaxed her whole body and allowed the sea water to sweep her away and into the depths.

 The pressure forced her to open her mouth, a series of bubbles came out, and her mouth was gradually filled with sea water.

The eardrums hurt and buzzed, and Wei Lan vaguely seemed to hear the cry of whales in the deep sea.

Melodious and slightly trembling…

 One after another.

I once heard that whales falling into the deep sea can nourish all things.

 She also wants to...

 Sleep like this.

 …

The wind roared in his ears, and Yanyi fell into the water. The blue water blurred his vision. He waved his arms and held his breath to search.

The inner harbor seems calm, but in fact, due to the cargo ships coming and going, undercurrents have already formed under the water, and Wei Lan has long since disappeared from the place where she fell into the water.

Yanyi tried hard to dive. The pressure in the water made his veins bulge and his oxygen gradually ran out. Just when he could no longer hold on, he finally saw the man with his eyes closed and unconscious but still falling deeper into the water.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

Yan Yi took a sip of water, his eyes were bloodshot to support the pressure of lack of oxygen, and he dived closer to Wei Lan.

Finally holding Wei Lan's hand, Yan Yi pulled her into his arms, wrapped an arm tightly around her waist, and took her away from the deep sea.

 “Hey! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!”

Yan Yi had just surfaced and before he could take a breath, a loud shouting came from behind him. His eyes were swollen and bloodshot. When he turned around, he saw a small fishing boat rushing towards them at great speed with the current.

 There was a muffled sound of "咚—", and Yanyi groaned.

 Caught off guard, had no time to dodge, and hit his head on the boat.

His eyesight turned black, Yanyi unconsciously let go of his hand, and the person in his arms was swept away by the undercurrent, "Wei..."

　　岚.

 Yanyi opened his mouth and stretched out his hand to grab it, but his vision had gone dark and he also lost consciousness.

The authorities are confused and the onlookers know clearly, and many things have already been settled.

 Yanyi and Wei Lan, just as Wei Lan said when she first lost her memory: "I want to eat puffs, can I?"

 Yanyi’s answer is yes.

 He tried hard to find it, but still couldn't find it.

 There is something that does not exist in this era, no matter how hard you work, it is impossible to find it.

 In other words, she does not belong to him, and no matter how hard she tries to keep her, she will never belong to him.

Bloodstains dyed a small area of ​​sea water red. The fishermen on the boat dragged the unconscious Yanyi onto the boat. After a while, he bowed and looked into the water: "Was there another person in the water just now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he vaguely saw a strong and straight figure passing quickly under the boat and swimming towards the deeper seabed.

"Even if it's 80%, we can't catch it... Send this to the hospital quickly! Don't kill anyone, this is bleeding..." Another fisherman behind him checked the wound on the side of Yanyi's head, shook his hands and stirred the slurry, and tried his best to go to the shore. edge closer.

 …

The sea water is faintly blue, and the sunlight slants down from the water surface, causing countless light spots and waves.

The black hair, together with the dark green seaweed, rises and falls driven by the water flow, and scattered light spots fall on the woman's face. She is as beautiful as a fairy who should belong here, and it is an unspeakable whiteness.

 Not as white as a stranger.

No…

 She doesn't belong here.

 She is his.

 The veins at the end of Gu Chao's eyes popped out, he held his breath and swam over quickly.

He pushed aside Wei Lan's long, tangled hair, clamped her chin, and pressed his lips against her pale lips to take a breath.

Strong arms clasped Wei Lan's waist and raised her leg sockets, and she swam hard toward the sea.

 Wei Lan, here I come.

I'm here Wei Lan, don't be afraid, don't be afraid... I'll take you home...

"Wei Lan..." Gu Chao hugged Wei Lan and was pushed to the shore by the waves, "Wei Lan, here I come."

   I'm sorry everyone, I may be a tearful person, I cry while writing...

Brother Chao has been looking for Wei Lan for four years, but he is only one step away. If he had come earlier, they would have met.
