Gu Yunshen still pulled the corners of his lips: "Xiaoying, the room is open for washing. I'll ask someone to get some clothes?"

He changed the subject deliberately and stiffly, as if he didn't want to have a deeper conversation, so Hua Xia nodded in agreement.

Gu Yunshen let her go, left the room and closed the door in a gentlemanly manner. Where Hua Xia couldn't see, his face sank, his expression was a little painful, and he clenched his teeth. He didn't call anyone to pick up his clothes, but came to the door of the wrong room he had just entered.

The room was spacious and soft, and the furnishings were in a girlish style. Gu Yunshen opened the wardrobe, which contained brand new girls' clothes. He took out a set at random, waited for a moment, and then handed it over.

"Xiaoying, I put the clothes outside. I'll wait for you downstairs."

Gu Yunshen sat on the sofa, looking out the door, his eyes fixed in mid-air. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and opened it. The red marks on his palm were caused by the pinching just now. He looked at it for a moment as if he had lost his sense of pain.

There was a car stop sound outside, and the boy, who was already over 1.8 meters tall, strode in and immediately looked at the man on the sofa: "Brother Yunshen, you..."

Zhang Zhi's eyes were filled with unpleasant emotions: "Should I ask the doctor to come over?"

"are you......"

He paused, his breathing no longer smooth: "Are you... hallucinating again?"

Gu Yunshen put down his hand and smiled bitterly: "I don't know."

Zhang Zhi seemed to be used to it. He lowered his voice and said, "It's okay. I'll ask the doctor to come and take a look..."

He was halfway through his words when he heard some noise on the stairs. He looked up blankly and saw a girl in a white gauze dress with long hair. She looked to be about twenty years old, very young. Zhang Zhi stopped talking abruptly.

After a moment, he turned to look at Gu Yunshen: "I might have to see a doctor too."

Otherwise...how did he see the person who had disappeared for eight years?

She is about twenty years old.

And Zhang Zhi is now twenty-four years old.

Hua Xia's hair was half dried by the blast. She had just left for a while, but she felt like she was exhausted. She went downstairs and asked, "You've grown so tall?"

Hua Xia gestured with her hand, and Zhang Zhi's eyes widened. The feeling of this man being out of tune was too familiar. He took a step forward to take a closer look, then reached out and pinched his thigh, gasping in pain.

"sister?"

Hua Xia was not used to this address, and frowned slightly: "Sister, you are my head."

Zhang Zhi jumped on the spot to make sure it was not an illusion, and suddenly roared: "Zhang Xiaoying! Where have you been for the past eight years?"

"Disappear just like that! Do you know how long we have been looking for you?"

As he was talking, the boy started crying: "Why did you come back?"

"I'm not your brother anymore! You don't have a brother anymore."

Hua Xia: "......." He was not her brother...

Zhang Zhi, a tough guy, burst into tears and turned to Gu Yunshen and said, "Brother Yunshen, this is not an illusion..."

"What hallucination?" Hua Xia lowered her eyebrows and looked at Gu Yunshen.

Gu Yunshen stood up: "He is so happy that he is crazy."

Hua Xia blinked and said nothing.

Zhang Zhi seemed to have said something wrong, and tried to cover up what Gu Yunshen said: "Yes, you are back, I am happy..."

The more you try to cover up, the more loopholes there will be.

"You haven't told me yet! Where did you disappear to?!"

This is really an unsolvable problem.

"I crossed over."

Zhang Zhi: "... Zhang Xiaoying, do you think I look mentally retarded?"

"Woo woo woo, go to hell, you are so heartless, you don't even know that after you left, I'll let it go, but Brother Yunshen almost..."

"Xiao Zhi, did you rush back from the company?" Gu Yunshen suddenly interrupted him. Zhang Zhi immediately shut up and just looked at Hua Xia with red eyes for a long while.

Suddenly, he said, "You really haven't changed. You look the same as you did eight years ago."

It can't be that I really traveled through time.

There is no such weird thing in this world. Isn't it normal for a girl to remain unchanged for eight years?

Hua Xia spent the whole day at the hospital where the original owner's mother was staying. The most expensive medicine and the most professional experts failed to wake up the original owner's mother, but she was kept alive. After coming back, Zhang Zhi talked about some of the things that had happened to him in the past eight years.

"When you disappeared, Brother Yunshen called the police and searched the whole city, but it seemed like you disappeared out of thin air. I was alone..."

"You deposited money into my card, and Brother Yunshen still sent someone to pick me up and move into the Song family's villa. A driver followed me to and from school. Brother Yunshen was looking for you and told me to study hard."

"At first I thought you had abandoned us, and I hated you, but later I just wanted you to come back safely..."

"Brother Yunshen...he is a very nice person..."

Zhang Zhi drank in the evening and thought of one thing after another: "There are people like our father in the world, but I didn't expect that there are people like Brother Yunshen."

"You don't even know what's going on."

"Sister, please don't abandon him and us again..."

Zhang Zhi's face was covered with tears, and he lay on the table in a daze: "I live here because Brother Yunshen needs someone to watch over him from time to time..."

"He had a hard time these years..."

"Xiao Zhi, go upstairs and go to bed." Gu Yunshen went to heat a cup of milk and placed it in front of Hua Xia. He patted Zhang Zhi's shoulder with his other hand. The latter was used to listening to the other person and treated him like an elder.

"Okay, Brother Yunshen, I'm going up." His steps were unsteady, but he obeyed the instructions.

The sound of a door closing on the second floor was heard, and Gu Yunshen reached out to hold Hua Xia's hand. It was like a certain threshold. After testing it during the day, they were able to hold hands, and this threshold would remain unchanged until the next test.

"Let's go up too."

On the third floor, in front of the door, Gu Yunshen let go of her hand and smiled at Hua Xia: "Good night."

Hua Xia felt mixed emotions: "Good night."

Because of the dormant period, Hua Xia's senses were much duller than before, but no matter how dull they were, she could still detect something strange about Gu Yunshen. The person who would be most shocked by her sudden disappearance would not even be Zhang Zhi, but Gu Yunshen.

Hua Xia was helpless for the moment and could only observe.

She just stayed in the villa, and the housekeeper and nanny were extremely respectful, as if she was supposed to be there. When Hua Xia wanted to go out to buy something or go back to her previous rental house to get something, the housekeeper would not arrange a driver immediately, but would report to Gu Yunshen behind her back, and then everything she wanted would be delivered.

Gu Yunshen didn't say anything about restricting her freedom, but every action of his had some meaning.

It was as if I had arrived at the small dark room where the villain had turned evil.

Hua Xia: “….”

Hua Xia replaced her previous cell phone with a new one after eight years, and there was no one she wanted to contact in her phone. She only downloaded new games of different categories and didn't have to go out. Gu Yunshen, on the other hand, went to get off work and came home normally every day and there was nothing unusual about him.

Zhang Zhi stayed here and occasionally talked about the project that Gu Yunshen was busy with, mentioning that he would be over it soon.

Two weeks later, Hua Xia didn't see Gu Yunshen go out to work during the day, so she asked him about it. The man's project was over and he was taking annual leave. Gu Yunshen did not choose to follow his father's path. Hua Xia didn't know if it was because of her.

"Don't you want me to take a vacation to accompany you?" Gu Yunshen asked calmly.

Hua Xia said no.

Gu Yunshen's eyes were filled with darkness. He closed his large palms and wrapped them around Hua Xia's hands to play with them: "Xiaoying, there is a dinner party tomorrow. Can you accompany me?"

"Do you remember Duan Yun? The Duan family took the lead in organizing Duan Yun's engagement party."

"They are all accompanied by someone, Xiaoying..."

The boy seemed to be trying to please her in the same sticky way as before, but there was something between them, making him less familiar with her.
