To You, My Beloved

When April was about to call back one after another, the phone screen lit up, and calls came in one after another. April moved her fingers slightly to answer.

Before April could speak, a succession of voices came from inside, no longer the usual gentle tone, but with a hint of urgency: Xiaoyue, where have you been?

Across the phone, April could completely feel the tension and worry. She held the phone and paused for a while, then said apologetically: I feel a little unwell, so I left first.

After a pause, April said again: Sorry, Lu Xu, I forgot to tell you.

Anyone could tell that April was lying. The people on the other end of the phone were silent for a long time, and then they pretended to believe the truth and asked: Then where are you now? Are you feeling better? Do you need to go? Hospital?

I'm fine, just rest for a while and I'll be fine.

Where are you right now then?

April glanced at the traffic outside the car window, and finally lied and said, I'm at home.

The moment April finished speaking, the taxi driver who happened to be driving in front of him honked his horn, which was clearly transmitted to the ears of the other end through the mobile phone she was holding.

The lie was exposed so straightforwardly, and April looked a little embarrassed. Although her expression could not be seen at this time, she still lowered her eyes in embarrassment.

There was silence for a long time during that part of the phone call, and finally he said, Then you have a good rest. Goodbye.

See you.

After April finished speaking, she waited for a while, but there was no sound from the other end of the phone. She paused, then hung up the phone, leaning on the back seat slightly weakly and looking out the window in a daze.

The taxi driver had been driving her aimlessly for a long time, and the fare on the meter was adjusted to two hundred yuan. Even though it was to make money for himself, the taxi driver couldn't help but ask. : Miss, where are you going?

April's eyes were still fixed on the car window. After a long while, she reported the address of her apartment.

April paid the fare and got out of the taxi. Just when she was about to close the door, she heard someone calling her name. She turned her head and saw the cars she had lent to one after another, parked on the side of the road and driving. Double flashing lights, one after another just got out of the car, holding on to the open door.

April was stunned for a moment, then closed the taxi door, walked over to Lu and asked, Why are you here?

They didn't say anything one after another. They just bent their upper bodies and got into the car, and then came out with two bags: You haven't eaten anything since noon. I took them home to eat something and rest.

April stared at the takeout bags being handed out one after another, her lips pursed subconsciously.

Lu's expression was still gentle, and he continued to hand the things to April, and then said: Xiaoyue, don't care how uncomfortable you are, don't make things difficult for yourself.

A touch of touching emotion suddenly appeared in April's heart. What a smart person Lu Yu was, but he didn't know how absent-minded and careless she was that day. He came back from France and made a special trip to celebrate her birthday. She should have given her all his heart and soul. He wanted to accompany him to enjoy Beijing. As a result, not only did she forget about his existence and left alone, she even lied to him over and over again.
