Chi Yun had insomnia the night before and didn't fall asleep until two or three in the morning, so naturally she woke up late the next day.Fortunately, there is no need to be restrained at home. Aunt Jiang called him once during breakfast time, but when she couldn't wake him up, she gave up and went downstairs again.

This sleep was a nightmare, maybe because of lying on his back, Chi Yun had a horrifying dream within a dream but couldn't remember the details.So much so that when he woke up, he stared at the ceiling for a long time before realizing with lingering fear that this time it was finally no longer a dream.

When Chi Yun finished washing up and went downstairs, only Aunt Jiang was cleaning the bar in the living room, Ye Wangning and Zhao Jiayin were not there.

Seeing that Chi Yun came down, Aunt Jiang hurriedly stopped what she was doing and went to the kitchen: "What would Yun Yun want to eat, can you make some morning tea?"

"It's all right." Chi Yun didn't really have much appetite, but he didn't want to reject Aunt Jiang's good intentions, so he sat down at the dining table, "Aunt Jiang, where's my mother?"

"Jiayin just took Xiaoye to the garden," Aunt Jiang said, "If you are hungry, eat some snacks to fill your stomach, and I will be ready soon."

Chi Yun responded, he nestled in the chair, did not touch the refreshments on the dining table, but turned on the phone.

There were still a few unread messages from yesterday on the WeChat page, and Yu Weiran did not reply.

Chi Yun thought about it for a while, and instead of sending another WeChat message, she made a voice call directly.

The other side beeped a few times, Yu Weiran didn't make him wait too long, and answered the phone: "Hello?"

"It's me," Chi Yun said, "I have something to tell you, do you have time recently?"

The other end was silent for a few seconds, and Yu Weiran's voice was unnaturally blunt: "Maybe I don't have much time recently, so let's talk on the phone."

Chi Yun said "Okay", he didn't want to beat around the bush, and asked directly: "My boyfriend came to pick me up that day, did he say something to you?"

Afraid that this sentence was too ambiguous, Chi Yun added another sentence: "I'm sorry, if he disrespects you in any way, I apologize to you on his behalf, he may not be clear..."

"He didn't disrespect me," Yu Weiran interrupted Chi Yun, "It's you who he disrespected."

Yu Weiran calmly dropped a huge bomb in Chi Yun's heart: "You went to the bathroom that day, and your boyfriend turned around and told me—"

"Do you want to rekindle the old relationship, or do you want to come back and lie to him?" Yu Weiran said, "How many times have I fucked him, do you think he still misses you?"

"His words."

Chi Yun didn't speak. In fact, he was trembling even holding both hands. He had never heard Ye Wangning speak like this, but somehow, he could imagine Ye Wangning's tone when he said this.

It must be light and airy, aloof.

"I don't know what he misunderstood, but," Yu Weiran sighed, feeling a little helpless, "You must have a premonition to ask me, right?"

Chi Yun's mind went blank, he seemed to have lost the ability to answer, and just repeated: "I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry for what?" Yu Weiran said, "Anyway, think about it for yourself and break up quickly. If you are with this kind of person, one day he will be suspicious of you and suspect you of cheating and kill you. maybe……"

Yu Weiran was still talking about something, but Chi Yun could no longer hear it. He suddenly remembered that Ye Wangning visited his studio for the first time. At that time, Ye Wangning was looking at a painting, and he was talking to Yu Weiran.

There is a lyric written on that painting, that painting...

Chi Yun jumped off the chair and ran upstairs regardless of the phone that was still on the phone.

There were three picture albums in the display cabinet. Chi Yun knelt on the ground and flipped through the pages, and finally found the painting that Ye Wangning was looking at in the last picture album.

The person in the painting is Yu Weiran, an ordinary sketch with a lyrics written next to it.

"I've said the thing about loving you a thousand times and there's an echo."

Chi Yun doesn't remember the circumstances under which he drew this painting, but there are two kinds, one is that Yu Weiran happened to be a model that week in the studio, and the other is that he was taking a break to draw a random drawing.

And the appearance of the lyrics is even more obvious. Chi Yun still remembers that at that time, he liked to draw sketches while listening to songs with headphones. Whenever the headphones were looped, he would write a line of lyrics on the drawing board.

Chi Yun suddenly wanted to laugh, was it because of this?

But Chi Yun couldn't laugh, there were so many details that he hadn't noticed that were put on the table again, so that he had almost no room to breathe.

From the very beginning, there were too many coincidences between him and Ye Wangning.

From the moment they met, Chi Yun liked to feed the cats in school with a brand of canned food, and so did Ye Wangning; Dou Hang helped others find a flat, and it was Ye Wangning who moved in; the unknown netizen Chi Yun met on Weibo was Ye Wangning, the person I chatted with on WeChat is also Ye Wangning; Chi Yun’s high school training studio is on Huai’an Road, and Ye Wangning also studied in Huai’an Road for two years in high school.

There are more, for example, on the day of the company dinner, Ye Wangning appeared on KTV; when he met Xu Shengze, Ye Wangning happened to have a fever, but he appeared in the restaurant where he met Xu Shengze...

Chi Yun suddenly felt shuddering.

There are too many so-called coincidences connected into a circle, forming a circle, trapping him in the illusion called coincidence without knowing it.

Trust is like dominoes, built with painstaking care, only to be destroyed once.

Summer is the best time to take care of flowers and plants. Zhao Jiayin and Ye Wangning were busy in the garden all afternoon, and chatted a lot during that time, and they didn't come back until near dusk.

When they returned to the main house, Chi Yun was teasing her sister in the living room. Ye Wangning picked an orange rose and brought it to Chi Yun. He heard from Zhao Jiayin that Chi Yun liked to play with her orange rose when she was a child, but orange was rare. It made Zhao Jiayin furious every time, and she couldn't bear to beat Chi Yun.

Chi Yun's reaction was flat. He took the rose and put it in a glass vase beside him.

"Mom, I've already told Aunt Jiang that you don't need to prepare dinner for me and Ye Wangning," Chi Yun called Zhao Jiayin who was about to go to the kitchen, "We're going back today, I still have drafts to draw."

"Didn't you say you're going to stay for two days?" Zhao Jiayin was stunned for a moment, just as her sister was passing by, and she poked her ankle with her head. Zhao Jiayin was distracted, leaned over and touched the top of her sister's fluffy head, and said half-jokingly, "You can go, leave my sister behind."

Chi Yun agreed without hesitation: "Okay, you can raise it for a while."

He turned back to Ye Wangning and said, "Let's go, we're going back."

Ye Wangning's eyes were still on the rose that he put in the vase casually, and he didn't speak, just nodded.

Zhao Jiayin didn't think much, picked up her sister and sent them to the entrance.Chi Yun didn't bring anything home this trip, and she didn't have any luggage when she left, so she had to ask Aunt Jiang to bring them some snacks, while complaining: "You can take the board home next time, it's not like you can't draw at home. ?”

"Okay." Chi Yun perfunctory without sincerity.

Aunt Jiang pretended to have a snack and brought it over, but Chi Yun said "no need", so Aunt Jiang had to give it to Ye Wangning again.

The way back to take a taxi at night was stuck in traffic for a long time, Chi Yun leaned her head on the car window, and kept looking at the neon lights outside the window.

The driver is very talkative, and started talking frequently when he first got in the car.But Chi Yun didn't want to pick it up, and Ye Wangning didn't know how to pick it up. After coming and going, the driver didn't have the mood to chat, and the only sound in the car was the evening radio broadcast.

Ye Wangning seemed to see that Chi Yun was not in high spirits, and after a short while of silence, he quietly reached out and interlocked his fingers.

"Stop making trouble." Chi Yun broke away calmly, and looked out of the car window again.

Yu Weiran's voice broke the beautiful illusion, peeling off the cocoon, revealing the tip of the iceberg of lies.

Chi Yun only felt weak and exhausted, this dissociated state made him tired of dealing with Ye Wangning.

He didn't notice that Ye Wangning looked at him expressionlessly for a while before looking away.

This state lasted until returning home, Chi Yun had no appetite for dinner, let alone facing Ye Wangning when everything was still unsolved, he hid in the room under the pretext of drawing a manuscript.

Pretending nothing happened, whitewashing the illusion of peace, or breaking the illusion to get to the bottom of it, the dilemma always takes time.

Chi Yun didn't want to doubt Ye Wangning without any grounds, even though the seeds of doubt had already taken root and sprouted in his heart.

But Ye Wangning didn't give him this chance, but entered the room behind him.

"You are in a bad mood." Ye Wangning said with certainty.

Chi Yun glanced at him, neither admitting nor denying it.

"Brother," when Ye Wangning called him that, Chi Yun always softened and wavered without resistance, "You said, if there is something you don't want to tell me, just say it quietly on WeChat."

"Don't make me guess," he said.

You made me guess first.Chi Yun didn't say it out, such words are too much like a child's tug-of-war, if you move one step, I will also move one step.

But he still said it in a straightforward way: "Did you rent this place through the introduction of Dou Hang?"

Chi Yun looked directly into Ye Wangning's eyes, as if trying to grasp the slightest hesitation, but Ye Wangning just paused, and replied: "No."

"I didn't know who the renter was," Ye Wangning said. "Someone asked me if I wanted to rent together, so I agreed."

Chi Yun asked: "Who is the other person?"

"I'm not very familiar," Ye Wangning said with a calm expression, "My friend's friend, I forgot what it's called. Why do you ask this?"

Chi Yun lowered her head and said thoughtfully, "Oh."

After a long silence, Chi Yun raised his head again and met Ye Wangning's gaze.Ye Wangning was still as calm and calm as ever, but it made him feel a little strange for no reason.

Chi Yun finally asked word by word: "Ye Wangning, can you tell me the truth?"
