Return To 1998

Xu Tongdao, who had not slept all night, was already very tired.

After learning the reason why his wife Wei Chunlan didn't return overnight, he no longer worried about Wei Chunlan.

He went back upstairs, took a shower, muted his phone, and went to bed.

Even if he wants to go to Xia Yun's place, he has to wait for him to recover.

...

By the time he woke up, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon.

Get up, wash up, go downstairs.

Seeing Tongdao Xu coming downstairs, his mother Ge Xiaozhu, who was sitting in the living room, sighed and pointed to the dining table.

At lunch today, I went upstairs to see you. I originally wanted to tell you to come downstairs to eat, but I didn't wake you up because you were sleeping soundly. There was a meal for you on the table. Do you want me? to warm you up?

Need not!

The weather in September is hot, and it's okay to eat cold rice and cold dishes.

Tongdao Xu walked to the dining table, filled a bowl of leftover rice, sat down and began to eat.

Mother Ge Xiaozhu came over and sat down beside him, looking at Xu Tongdao who was eating with his head down, Ge Xiaozhu sighed again, I guess you are about to wake up, so these meals have not been put in the refrigerator. Lanlan hasn't come back yet. , the phone still can't get through. I heard that you called back all the people you sent out, and the police also called to say don't look for it. Xiaodao, what do you think? Your wife is gone, so you just don't look for it. already?

Xu Tongdao, who bowed his head to eat, didn't raise his head or raised his eyes, his tone was calm, Mom, it's okay, she will come back by herself.

Ge Xiaozhu frowned, You just believed that she would come back on her own? What if something happened to her? Just like your dad disappeared suddenly...

Xu Tongdao: ...

Unexpectedly, this incident reminded my mother of my father's disappearance.

But the specific reason, Xu Tongdao did not want to explain to his mother.

So, after a few seconds of silence, he nodded, Don't worry! When I'm full, I'll go to her, where are An An and Lele?

Ge Xiaozhu: Send it to school, An'an is going to primary school, Lele is going to kindergarten, are you still awake?

Xu Tongdao laughed at himself,

Don't say anything, just speed up and eat.

After the meal, he took Zheng Meng and Sun Aizi to the group headquarters for office.

He didn't really go looking for Wei Chunlan.

It's not that he doesn't want to look for it, but that so many people searched the city last night, but they couldn't find Wei Chunlan's whereabouts. Now, how likely is it that he can find it alone?

What he said just now was his responsibility to deal with his mother.

Wei Chunlan didn't return overnight, and Xia Yun gave birth to a child who might be his Xu. These two things weighed heavily on his mind, making him not in the mood to patiently answer every question from his mother.

Had to deal with it casually.

In the blink of an eye, it was evening.

sunset.

The President's Office of the Siemens Group Headquarters.

Tongdao Xu put down the pen in his hand, got up and walked to the window, squinting at the high-rise buildings under the sunset, his mind was confused.

This afternoon, he hadn't received any news that Wei Chunlan had returned home. Obviously, Wei Chunlan had not returned home.

As for the company, he also asked Zheng Meng to find out - Wei Chunlan didn't come to work in the company today.

Where is she?

Xu Tongdao could not think of the answer.

When his thoughts changed, he thought of Xia Yun and Xia Yun's children again.

According to Wang Xiaomin's report to him this morning, Xia Yun's child is studying in Tianyun Elementary School. It should be almost the end of school at this time, and Xia Yun should be picking up her child from school.

It seems that his wife Wei Chunlan had signed up her daughter before, but suddenly changed her mind and arranged her daughter to go to Tianyun No. 2 Primary School, because when Tianyun No. 1 registered her daughter, she happened to see Xia Yun and her children also signed up for Tianyun No. 1 Primary School. .

So Wei Chunlan changed her mind and arranged her daughter to Tianyun No. 2 Primary School.

Why because there are too many vendors selling toys and snacks at the entrance of Tianyun Primary School... Now it seems to be an excuse.

Tongdao Xu stood by the window for a long time, then turned to leave the window, and came out of the office with his mobile phone and handbag.

Tong Wen, the secretary working outside, was a little surprised that Xu Tongdao got off work so early today and got up subconsciously, Boss, are you going back early today?

Xu Tongdao hummed.

After coming out of Tong Wen's office, Zheng Meng and Sun Ai Zi quickly got up and followed.

After a few minutes.

The black Bentley drove out of the underground garage downstairs. Instead of driving on the road that returns to Zhusiyuan every day, it turned to another road.

The driver is still Tan Shuangxi.

Sun Aizi sat in the passenger seat, Zheng Meng accompanied Xu Tongdao in the back row.

Tongdao Xu closed his eyes and leaned on the back of the chair, his face expressionless.

After half an hour.

The car stopped.

Tan Shuangxi: Boss, it's time to go.

Tongdao Xu opened his eyes.

Sun Aizi in the passenger seat turned around and asked, Boss, shall we get off now?

Xu Tongdao hummed.

Sun Aizi and Zheng Meng got out of the car immediately. After getting out of the car, they quickly came to Xu Tongdao, helped to open the car door, and guarded both sides of the car door on the left and the right.

Xu Tongdao got out of the car and glanced at the surrounding environment.

This is a very old community. As far as I can see, there are five or six-storey buildings with mottled walls. Most of the anti-theft windows on the windows are stained with rust. The greening in the community is not bad.

The branches of camphor trees are lush and leafy, and the bushes are lush.

Too!

In the old community, flowers and trees are generally lush.

Which one is Building 7?

Xu Tongdao asked while looking at the environment of the community.

Sun Aizi pointed to the building in front of the left, Boss! That's it.

Tongdao Xu looked in the direction of his finger, without saying anything, he raised his foot and walked over there.

Zheng Meng and Sun Ai Zi hurriedly followed behind.

303, Unit 2, Building 7, Longhua Community.

This is the address that Wang Xiaomin told Xu Tongdao this morning, where Xia Yun currently lives.

Xu Tongdao walked into the doorway of Unit 2 of Building 7. There was no elevator in this old small building, so he could only take the stairs step by step to the third floor.

Of course, climbing the third floor is no burden to him.

When I came to the door of Room 303, I looked at the anti-theft door with mottled silver paint and rust everywhere.

Tongdao Xu gave Sun Ai Zi a look beside him, and Sun Ai Zi hurriedly stepped forward to ring the doorbell.

Who is it? Here, wait a minute!

Xia Yun's voice came from the door.

Although she hadn't seen each other for seven or eight years, Tongdao Xu still sounded familiar with her voice.

After a while, the wooden door inside the security door opened, and Xia Yun, who was wearing a navy blue one-step skirt and a white women's short-sleeved shirt, looked up and met Xu Tongdao outside the security door.

At that moment, the air seemed to suddenly become quiet.

Inside and outside the door, it was so quiet for a while that you could hear the needle falling.

Tongdao Xu with narrowed eyes and Xia Yun looked at each other across the rusty security door. You looked at me and I looked at you.

Zheng Meng and Sun Ai Zi subconsciously held their breaths.

After not seeing each other in seven or eight years, Xu Tongdao found that Xia Yun had not changed much, and she was still so beautiful, too! She is only about thirty years old now, which is the age of the charming young lady.

Compared with before, she is only a little plump by a point or two.

You, why are you here?

Xia Yun in the security door finally spoke, with a complicated expression and a complicated tone.
