She really wanted to rush to hug him, hold his hand tightly, and tell him that she missed him too.

But she can't.

"what--!"

She was in so much pain that she couldn't help slapping the ground with all her strength.

But it didn't work.

Useless……

He can't come back.

Tang Xiao's throat was fishy and sweet, and his chest throbbed.

The cold came from all directions, and she knelt on the ground and her thin body couldn't help shaking.

"...Smile!"

Pei Yuancheng's worried exclamation came from behind.

Tang Xiao's whole body was stiff and cold, and he felt that his strength was losing little by little. It was as if there was a thick fog in front of his eyes, and his ears were buzzing like lead.

When Pei Yuancheng arrived in front of Tang Xiao, she was slumped on the snow-covered muddy ground by the lake beside the boulevard. Just a few steps forward, there was a thin layer of ice on the surface of the lake, glowing coldly in the night.

Immediately panicked, he knelt down to hold her shoulders, and reprimanded softly, "Xiaoxiao, what are you doing? What's wrong with you...?"

Tang Xiao was like a puppet with a broken string, his whole body was stiff and cold.

He didn't know what happened to make her suddenly become like this.

But what is certain is that it must have something to do with the dream she just had.

Is it...? !

A terrible conjecture came to his mind.

Tang Xiao slumped on the ground in a daze, and he didn't fall down because he held her shoulders tightly.

After a long time, she finally raised her eyes slowly.

A dark cloud quietly moved away in the night sky, and the cool moonlight slanted down.

The moonlight shone on her face, and her face was the same color as snow.

"I dreamed that he was dead..."

She looked at him in distress, her voice was very low, but every word was very clear.

"Tell me, is it true?"

"..."

Pei Yuancheng's pupils suddenly constricted.

He drooped his long eyelashes as if he didn't dare to touch her eyes, and said softly: "It's just a dream, why do you take it seriously?"

"Pei Yuancheng."

She called out his name quietly.

There was no trace of emotion on Pei Yuancheng's pale face, but thousands of excuses appeared in his mind instantly.

He never thought that one day he would try his best to deceive her——

This is what he wants.

He also didn't want to lie to her, not even a single word.

But what should he do?
I heard her cold question again: "You know everything, don't you? You tell me, you tell me?"

He looked up at her and said calmly, "Xiaoxiao, I don't know what you're talking about—it's just a dream, why do you have such a big reaction?"

Tang Xiao fixed his big and black eyes on him.

Pei Yuancheng panicked after being watched, and still did not change his face, but reminded with a slight frown: "Let's go, go home, it's so cold here, what if you catch a cold? You still have a baby in your stomach."

"Pei Yuancheng, tell me, what happened to him? Is he - dead?"

As if she didn't hear what he said, she repeated her question again.

Pei Yuancheng's heart was sinking heavily.

He realized that he might not be able to fool her anymore.

Xiaoxiao may not be that good at dealing with people, but her ability to become a well-known surgeon in Chengbei at a young age is enough to prove that she is definitely not a person to be fooled.

She is undeniably clever.

Perhaps, she had already noticed it.

He, Yan Ling, Cheng Feng, Ah Meng, and Cheng's family all knew about it, so how could they keep it from her so that they wouldn't show any flaws?
He suddenly became very confused.

"Pei Yuancheng, tell the truth."

She didn't know where to generate strength, and she held his arm with her backhand, clenched tightly, as if she was afraid that he would slip away.

"I really do not know."

There was a sense of weakness in Pei Yuancheng's tone.

"Are you unwilling to say it, or dare not say it?"

Her pale face was tense from the cold, and two sharp rays of light shot out from her black eyes soaked red with tears.

"Say it! Tell me—don't take me for a fool, okay? Do all of you think I can't find anything, do you all think I'm a fool?!"

"……I do not have."

"Then tell me the truth, Pei Yuancheng, if you still treat me as a friend, tell me the truth about what happened to him."

Her tone was calmer than ever.

Pei Yuancheng met her eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and said gently: "Smile, let's go back first, shall we?"

"Pei Yuancheng, tell me! Tell me what happened to him?! Ah? Why don't you dare to say?? Why?!"

But Tang Xiao yelled at him unbearably: "Tell me, Pei Yuancheng, I can't wait anymore, I've been waiting for him for a long, long time... Do you know the feeling of waiting? Every time he leaves, I just waited, waited, waited so anxiously—”

"I'm about to go crazy. Pei Yuancheng, I know what you're hiding from me, I know..."

Her tears suddenly fell down like a downpour, and her voice became choked and vague——

"I dreamed of him! I dreamed that he was dead, and I saw it... Are you still trying to lie to me? He said he missed me... He missed me—"

She raised her head in grief, looking at the blue night sky.

In a trance, I seemed to see his handsome and gentle face.

He always smiled at her like that.

He is such a domineering person, and he is always so gentle to her——

What a man he is.

She was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe, and her thin body was staggering and about to collapse.

Hearing her cry, Pei Yuancheng's black eyes gradually glowed with water.

Can he continue to lie to her?

If it was Reiko who made her dream of him, then maybe Reiko didn't want her to continue to be ignorant...

These people kept saying that they kept it from her for her own good, so that she would not even know the news of her husband's death. Isn't this so-called white lie another kind of cruelty?

Waiting in hope, for someone who will never come back, is a kind of lingering torture.

"Smile..."

He sighed softly, feeling like a lump in his throat, and he couldn't say that sentence no matter what.

Tang Xiao grasped his arm tightly, his eyes were desperate and sad.

Seeing the tears in his eyes, she understood everything in her heart.

"You can't tell, right? He's dead, is that true? Pei Yuancheng, if it's true, just nod..."

She closed her eyes, hot tears running down her cheeks.

When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were calm and bright.

"I just want one answer. If you are a friend, you can give me this answer. I don't want to be a fool who is kept in the dark."

Her voice was hoarse, but firm.

Pei Yuancheng met her gaze, feeling unbearably heartbroken.

Finally, he nodded to her.

He couldn't bear to see her again, but had to look at her.

"..."

Tang Xiao's pale lips trembled a few times, and his hands slipped from Pei Yuancheng's arms weakly.

"Smile..."

He was very worried.

As if in an instant, he felt that all the anger in the woman in front of him was cleared.

Her expression became dull, her eyes lost their brilliance, and even her pupils gradually faded——

"Smile!"

She slowly closed her eyes, and fell heavily onto the icy ground...

"Beep...beep...beep..."

Yun Jiao, who was sitting in the office, frowned and stared at her mobile phone.

"The user you dialed is temporarily unavailable..."

She has made several phone calls in a row.

Cheng Feng didn't come to work that day, and according to his immediate superior, he didn't receive his leave slip.

Several colleagues in the office knew that she and Cheng Feng were boyfriend and girlfriend, so they asked her to ask Cheng Feng what was going on.

In fact, everyone also knew that Cheng Feng's background was tough, so such a trivial matter would not be dismissed, but at least the leader had to be given a reason for absenteeism, right?
Yun Jiao also knew that Cheng Feng didn't care about this job, but as Cheng Feng's girlfriend, since she was assigned this task by everyone, she should complete it satisfactorily.

But who knows, she can't do such a small thing——

Cheng Feng couldn't get in touch all day.

To be precise, it started last night.

No reply on WeChat, no phone calls.

But last night, she only thought that Cheng Feng was asleep, so she didn't pay much attention to it.

Hearing that something happened to the Cheng family, she didn't dare to ask, she only knew that Cheng Feng had been living at home during this time——

Of course Yunjiao is happy to see the result, she doesn't want Cheng Feng to live with his sister-in-law at all.

Cheng Feng lives at home, and his mother is stricter. It is normal for him to go to bed early at night.

Better than going out and having sex with some wild woman.

The last time Yunjiao heard her best friend tell her that after Cheng Feng and Zhu Susu were dating, she went to Tang Xiao and cried. Perhaps Tang Xiao and Cheng Feng had chatted, or maybe it was Cheng Feng's own conscience. Later, Cheng Feng and her Explain that it was arranged by his mother, and he couldn't help but go.

Yunjiao was very angry, and couldn't help complaining to Liu Chengcheng, who had changed countless girlfriends over the years but was still devoted to her, but in the end, she decided to forgive Chengfeng.

Liu Chengcheng asked her, do you like Cheng Feng so much?

Yunjiao replied, I need him.

Yes, she needs a boyfriend like Cheng Feng.

She made up her mind that as long as Cheng Feng was not determined to break up with her, she would not break up with him.

Not only can she bear it, but she is also ready to spend it with Cheng Feng.

"Honey, where are you? I'm so worried about you."

She couldn't get through the phone, and didn't answer the video request on WeChat. Yunjiao had no choice but to send a message to Cheng Feng under the covert observation of all eyes in the office.

"Don't ignore me, okay? No matter what happens, I will be with you."

She sent several messages in a row, but Cheng Feng still didn't hear anything.

But at this moment, the phone buzzed. She thought it was Cheng Feng who replied, but when she picked it up, it was Liu Chengcheng.

"..."

She can't wait to scold her mother.

Liu Chengcheng sent her a smiling face and said, "Jiaojiao, your brother Cheng will take you to eat delicious food tonight, will you come?"

Yun Jiao was so annoyed that she replied two words without thinking: "No time."

"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"

Liu Chengcheng, a rough guy, can always detect her emotional changes very keenly.

Yun Jiao stared at the phone, sighed, and thought, it would be great if Cheng Feng could be half as good as him.
