Chapter 932 - Meeting (2) (2/2)
The man’s eyes were full of coldness and impatience. “Miss, please leave now. I’m not the person you’re looking for.”
He then closed the door with a bang.
The door seemed to isolate them, separating them into two distant worlds. .
The hands by Shangguan Wan’s sides clenched and unclenched repeatedly…
She leaned against the door, her heart felt like it was pierced. Instead of leaving, she sat on the stone bench in the courtyard. Resting her cheeks in between her hands, she wondered why it had become like this.
Did he really lose his memories?
If he did, why did he come to Yukou Border to invest? Why did he move away from Zuofeng Mountain when Little Xingxing saw him?
Whether he lost his memory or not, she was sure about one thing. He did not want to see her.
Was Bailey really dating him? Were they together now?
Thinking of this, Shangguan Wan’s heart seemed to have been pierced by a needle, a sharp pain stinging it relentlessly.
He was still alive.
But he did not remember her. He had a woman he liked. She was younger, and cuter than her…
Shangguan Wan did not know if she should feel happy or sad with all that had happened.
But she knew that nothing was more important than him being alive! She should be happy.
Shangguan Wan closed her eyes, her temples throbbing slightly.
She was sitting under the sun, but her body was somewhat cold.
She felt like she was having a dream.
Or was it a nightmare?
…
Shangguan Wan sat there until the evening.
The sound of a car stopping sounded at the gate of the courtyard.
Bailey walked in with a bag of groceries and she was slightly surprised when she saw Shangguan Wan in the yard. “Y-You are…”
Taking in a breath, Bailey did not know what to say to Shangguan Wan. She heard from her brother that she was the female officer here and had great power. Even the mayor had to listen to her, so what could she do to her?
Bailey glanced at Shangguan Wan before going into the house. From the moment she stepped inside, she was surrounded by the pungent smell of tobacco.
When she saw the ashtray full of cigarette b.u.t.ts, a frown marred her pretty face. “Fifth Brother, Dr Jing told you to quit smoking. Why are you…” Bailey looked out, thinking that it must be the woman outside upsetting Fifth Brother!
The man flicked the cigarette ash and said hoa.r.s.ely, “Make something to eat. I’m hungry.”
“Mm, okay.”
…
An hour later, Bailey finished cooking.
She went up to the man and said softly, “Fifth Brother, she’s still in the yard. Why don’t we ask her to come in for dinner?”
The man hummed in agreement.
Bailey ran to the yard and looked at Shangguan Wan. “It’s getting dark. Why don’t you come in for dinner and leave after?”
Shangguan Wan followed Bailey into the house.
Bailey had cooked three dishes and a soup.
Shangguan Wan’s heart tightened as she looked at the man who stood from the sofa and was walking over to the dining room.
His hair was cut very short, the outline of his face thin and charming. Perhaps her gaze was too heated, so he looked at her.
His gaze was clear and indifferent, with no trace of a ripple of any kind of emotion.
It was hard for Shangguan Wan to distinguish whether he really forgot about her or whether it was because he did not want to talk to her.
He came into the dining room, wordlessly pulling out the chair for Bailey in a gentlemanly manner and only sat down after she was seated.
Shangguan Wan sat opposite him and Bailey.
Bailey looked at Shangguan Wan and asked, “Big Sister, were you trying to find Fifth Brother because he looks like your boyfriend?”
