Chapter 122 Tears
Although Cheng Shuyan was somewhat puzzled as to why Yunzhi wanted to see those things, he readily agreed.
After all, those things weren't anything shameful.
“Alright, Miss Yun, come with me to my bedroom.”
Cheng Shuyan led the way.
Yunzhi followed closely behind, her mind heavy with worry.
As she walked forward, she pondered how something she had personally thrown into the trash could have appeared out of nowhere in Cheng Shuyan's safe.
Yunzhi, lost in thought, didn't notice that she had overtaken Cheng Shuyan and become the guide. She knew Cheng Shuyan's villa so well that she even had a complete floor plan of it in her mind. Before she knew it, she had arrived at the door of the master bedroom.
arrive……
Yunzhi looked at the familiar high-grade gray wooden door in front of her, raised her hand to the doorknob, and was about to push the door open when she suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Now is not the time for her to stay at Cheng Shuyan's villa.
Back then, Cheng Shuyan gave her the master bedroom, and she could come and go as she pleased. But now she's just a guest of Cheng Shuyan's, someone he doesn't know very well.
As a guest, it would be extremely impolite to casually enter the host's bedroom.
Yunzhi withdrew her hand and turned to meet Cheng Shuyan's probing gaze.
Cheng Shuyan saw Yunzhi turn around, concealed the doubt in his eyes, smiled, and spoke half-jokingly.
"It seems we really have a tacit understanding. Is the layout of Miss Yun's bedroom the same as that of my villa? That's why Miss Yun is so familiar with my place."
Yunzhi, "..."
That's really different.
Yunzhi chose to lie directly rather than lie against her will.
She coughed lightly, "Actually, I just saw President Cheng go into the bedroom."
Cheng Shuyan nodded knowingly, it was unclear whether he believed her or not.
“Miss Yun is very smart.” Cheng Shuyan’s words seemed to have a deeper meaning. As he spoke, he walked past Yun Zhi and leaned forward to push open the door.
As soon as the door opened, the familiar minimalist style of the decor came into view.
The furnishings in the bedroom were exactly the same as when she first lived there.
Even the aromatherapy in the master bedroom is a fresh orange scent that Yunzhi has always loved.
However, she remembered that she disposed of all the incense before she left.
She remembered that Cheng Shuyan preferred light and elegant tea-scented incense, so why did he switch to orange scent?
Yunzhi took a deep breath. "I didn't expect that President Cheng would like this kind of orange-scented aromatherapy that girls like."
"I didn't like it before, but I don't know when I started to like it. It smells really nice. If Miss Yun likes it, you can take some with you when you leave. We have plenty at home anyway."
Even he himself could hardly believe that he would like orange-scented aromatherapy. He felt relaxed and calmed down by the scent.
Yunzhi did not refuse Cheng Shuyan's kindness.
“The contents are here.” Cheng Shuyan remembered the purpose of his visit. He led Yunzhi to the safe and, without avoiding her, opened it directly in front of her.
Yunzhi quickly turned behind her, afraid that she might see something she shouldn't have.
Does Cheng Shuyan trust her that much?
Yunzhi felt a mix of emotions.
Cheng Shuyan was also shocked by his own lack of vigilance towards Yunzhi.
But then I thought, there's nothing important here.
It doesn't matter if Yunzhi sees it.
Thinking this, Cheng Shuyan clicked open the safe cabinet door.
The heavy safe made a dull, old-fashioned sound when it was opened from the outside.
There were quite a few odds and ends scattered around inside, and upon closer inspection, it wasn't hard to find that these things were surprisingly familiar.
Yunzhi stared wide-eyed at the things in the safe that should have been at the garbage collection station, now lying quietly inside.
Her water glass, pink slippers, worn pajamas, and even her used hair tie were all in there.
Yunzhi pursed her lips, her hand hanging at her side trembling slightly.
Some of the things she even took to the city to throw away.
One or two items could be considered a coincidence, but so many items must have been the work of Cheng Shuyan in his previous life. Otherwise, no one would be willing to spend so much manpower and resources to search for so much 'trash' together.
But why?
Yunzhi looked at Cheng Shuyan with a complicated expression.
Cheng Shuyan misunderstood Yunzhi's meaning.
"Let me make it clear beforehand, I'm not a pervert, and I have no idea why these women's items ended up in my safe."
As he spoke, he bent down and took out the items from the safe one by one, jokingly saying as he did so.
"However, most of the items inside are to my liking. They're the kind of things I would definitely buy for my girlfriend if I had one. If I didn't not have a girlfriend, I would really suspect that I've lost my memory."
That's not to his liking.
He prepared all these things for her.
In order to escape this world, Yunzhi erased all traces of her existence, but Cheng Shuyan managed to leave traces of her existence in the cracks.
Even though he doesn't remember himself anymore.
Yunzhi felt a lump in her throat, and tears streamed uncontrollably down her cheeks.
With a soft thud, Yunzhi's tears fell heavily onto the wooden floor.
Cheng Shuyan looked up and met Yunzhi's tear-streaked face.
His heart skipped a beat. Forgetting what he was holding, he pulled out a tissue and handed it to Yunzhi.
"Miss Yun, I'm really not a pervert, don't be afraid," Cheng Shuyan joked to ease the atmosphere.
Yunzhi felt ashamed. She cried almost every time she met Cheng Shuyan. The saying that women are made of water was perfectly embodied in her.
She hastily wiped away her tears.
But her tear ducts seemed to be malfunctioning, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances she had suffered all along.
Cheng Shuyan helped Yunzhi sit down on the sofa next to him.
His expression was grave, and he wondered if Yunzhi had contracted some rare disease that made her unable to stop crying. He pondered whether he should call a doctor.
If Yunzhi knew what Cheng Shuyan was thinking, she would definitely be both amused and exasperated.
At this moment, she silently asked the system in her heart with a glimmer of hope.
'System, is it possible that my brother has regained his memories of me?'
The system beeped three times.
The response time this time was longer than usual.
A minute later, the system's voice finally rang in Yunzhi's mind.
[Host, according to our records, the lost memories cannot be recovered. The anomaly on your end is likely a bug in Cheng Shuyan's resurrection. You don't need to worry about it; such bugs will be automatically fixed later.]
Yunzhi was somewhat disappointed.
So it can't be restored after all.
Cheng Shuyan saw Yunzhi stop crying, let out a long sigh, and had an expression of relief.
