    ?

    She's gone, she's gone again!  She left him so silently and left alone!

    The once dark memories rolled in his mind, and his heart began to ache like a tear.  He leaned against the wall and slowly sat down on the ground, his eyes staring at the pair of slippers gradually lost their light.

    When Zhu Meng came home, her mother was washing vegetables in the kitchen by herself.

    "Mom, let me help you." She raised her sleeves before her hand touched the faucet, but her mother stopped her.

    "No, no, you go to the room to play with the computer for a while, and Mom will finish it right away, ah." Zhu's mother dried her hands, pushed her out of the kitchen.

    Zhu's mother is a typical housewife, and her personality is also the type of a very young woman. She is almost obedient to her father, and her heart is devoted to the family.  With such a big change in the family, Zhu's mother seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.  Looking at her mother's busy back, Zhu Meng felt sore.

    Very light two dishes and one soup, Zhu Meng took the bowl and ate the rice, and her mother kept adding vegetables to her bowl.

    "Eat more, you are too thin. I have been outside for so many years and don't know how to take care of myself, alas." Mother Zhu kept nagging.

    Zhu Meng couldn't open her mouth, she just nodded her head vigorously, her mouth was full, and she chewed vigorously, as if she could swallow all the tears in this way.

    After dinner, Zhu Meng rushed to wash the dishes, and sat on the sofa with her mother to watch TV.

    "Didn't find any investment last night?" Her mother asked.

    "Yeah." Zhu Meng's mood became depressed when she thought of this.

    "It's okay. In fact, I just want our family of three to live in peace and stability, but your father can't let him go." Mother Zhu sighed, holding Zhu Meng's hand, her eyes were full of pity, "It's just that you have suffered,  Those who used to work well in the United States are now coming back to suffer with us."

    "We are a family. The company has become like this. There is no reason for me to ignore it." Zhu Meng comforted her mother.

    "Don't meddle in the company's affairs in the future. This circle is not clean, and mom doesn't want you to go into this muddy water. Listen to mom, go back to the United States in a few days, and continue to work with peace of mind. When the company really goes bankrupt, I will  Just drag your dad over to find you." Her mother persuaded her earnestly.

    Zhu Meng hesitated.  On the one hand, she couldn't let go when there was a major crisis at home; on the other hand, she cared a little about Gu Chen.  The last time he left without saying goodbye really hurt him, that's why he showed such a fragile expression last night.  She clearly knew that there was no possibility for him to be with him anymore, and even if she stayed, it would be meaningless, but she still couldn't bear to let him be upset, to be afraid of him, to miss her alone.

    "Mom, I'm already this old, so it's very clear what to do and what not to do." Zhu Meng said.  Although I know it, but there are some things that shouldn't be done, but I still want to stick to it.

    "I hope you are really clear about it." Mother Zhu sighed, waved her hand, gave up continuing to persuade her, got up and went back to her room to take a nap.

    Zhu Meng stared blankly for a while at the TV screen that was constantly showing advertisements. She wanted to do something, but she didn't know what to do.  Obviously want to help, but don't know where to start.  This feeling of powerlessness has often come to her heart since returning home.

    Suddenly, she heard the faint cell phone ringing in the room, and when she returned to the room, she saw that the screen of the phone was brightly lit, and it displayed an unfamiliar number, but the security software detected that it belonged to City A.

    This number was set up only after Zhu Meng came back, and it hasn't been long, and very few people know it.  But since it was a local number, it probably wouldn't be a nuisance call.

    After a moment of doubt, she still answered the phone.

    "Hello?" He asked tentatively.

    "Mengmeng?" Suspicion mixed with panic came into Zhu Meng's ears through the receiver.  Even though the voice on the phone had a distorted effect, Zhu Meng could immediately tell that it was from Gu Chen.

    "I am." She gave him an affirmative answer.

    "Mengmeng!" This time he shouted excitedly.

    "Yeah." Hearing his voice, she only felt funny and sad.

    "You disappeared." He complained aggrievedly.

    "I'm just going home." She stated the facts, but her tone softened.

    "But if you leave without saying a word, I'll be scared." He didn't blame her, he just told her how he felt, but it hurt her more than blaming her.

    "I'm sorry." She calmed down her somewhat difficult breathing, preventing him from hearing the choking in her voice, "I won't?.  "

    "Then, can you come here?" Gu Chen asked cautiously.

    Zhu Meng agreed almost without any consideration: "Okay, I'll be there right away."

    After receiving Zhu Meng's affirmative reply, Gu Chen's heartbeat gradually returned to normal.  He was still tightly holding the phone that had been hung up, his hands were wet.

    In the panic in the morning, he suddenly thought of Li Dahai. She was his girlfriend at the banquet that day, so he should have her contact information.  He quickly called the secretary and asked him to try his best to contact Li Dahai and ask for Zhu Meng's phone number.  The process was not very smooth, but luckily the result satisfied him.

    Sitting on the ground in the same position for too long, Gu Chen's legs have already started to go numb.  He stood up abruptly, but staggered because of the weakness in his legs and almost fell to the ground, if he hadn't supported the wall in time.

    Waiting was a torment for him. Gu Chen walked to the French window facing the courtyard door, and while watching whether that familiar figure appeared on the road leading to his house, he turned on the screen of his phone from time to time to watch anxiously.  Time passed slowly.

    Finally, a taxi stopped at the door, and Gu Chen watched expectantly as the door was pushed open, and a woman got out of the car.  The anticipation in his eyes disappeared instantly, and his face became gloomy and gloomy.

    He watched helplessly as the woman walked to the front of the house step by step until the doorbell rang.

    He remained motionless, and had no intention of opening the door, but the doorbell rang incessantly.

    "Xiaochen, open the door, I know you are at home!" The woman's loud shout came in through the crack of the door.

    Gu Chen rubbed his temples in annoyance, walked slowly to the door, and stretched out his hand to unlock it.

    Seeing the door open, the woman standing at the door had a bright smile on her face, and her exquisite makeup couldn't hide the wrinkles around her eyes.

    "Xiaochen, Mom hasn't seen you for a long time." Tears were already in the woman's eyes.

    "Now that I see you, you can go." Gu Chen said indifferently, and was about to close the door after speaking.

    The woman quickly stretched out her arms to block the door panel, the expression on her face had turned into a mournful one.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
