Huang Tuo Mountain, his friend?

  “What’s his name?” Fu Tingyu asked.

  Gu Yan said, “I asked, but he didn’t say.”


  Fu Tingyu frowned. His friend?

  Why didn’t he say anything when he came?

  “He didn’t want to say, but I was curious about who he was. So I learned my lesson this time and secretly took his photo.”


  Fu Tingyu turned his head to look at Gu Yan, waiting to see the photo.

  Gu Yan put a towel on the back of his neck, picked up the phone on the sofa. He opened the photo album and clicked on the secretly taken photo.

  After the photo was taken, he didn’t have time to look at it.

  “This is the photo.” Gu Yan handed the phone to him.

  Fu Tingyu took it over and looked at the phone screen. The first time he saw the photo, he thought he looked familiar.

  He had short black and brown hair, wore a black mask, and was wearing a leather jacket.

  He suddenly remembered the man who was holding the cat by the sign on the way here.

  “I saw him on the road just now, but I didn’t recognize him.”


  Gu Yan was surprised. “But he said he was your friend and saved me twice. I’ve been locked up for so long, and that man didn’t intend to let me go. It was he who suddenly appeared and saved me.”.

  In the end, he added, “I didn’t cure him, and he won’t live long.”


  Fu Tingyu had enlarged the photo and was ready to take a closer look. When he heard that, he turned to look at Gu Yan. “He won’t live long, what do you mean?”


  “The poison he was poisoned with was the same as yours, but much more serious than yours. He must have taken a medicine for a long time, or else he would have been terminally ill by now,” Gu Yan said.

  Fu Tingyu: “You didn’t detoxify him, yet he didn’t make things difficult for you?”


  “Not this time. Other than not having freedom, he treated me pretty good.” Gu Yan was telling the truth, just that he couldn’t get out of the basement.

  A barely noticeable look of surprise flashed across Fu Tingyu’s eyes. “What kind of person is he?”


  “His eyesight isn’t good. When the medicine was applied, his eyes were covered with gauze. I don’t know what he looks like. He’s quite kind.”


  This was Gu Yan’s first impression of that man.

  A trace of doubt flashed in Fu Tingyu’s eyes. It was somewhat different from the person he had imagined.

  He lowered his eyes. The photo had been enlarged. His gaze stopped at the photo in front of him and finally, it fell on the exposed eye.

  Because it was a side profile, he could only see one eye, and it was not a complete view.

  His eyebrows were very long, very thick, and raised.

  It gave him a very familiar feeling.

  But he knew that there was no such person among his male friends.

  “I’ll go take a look.”


  Fu Tingyu returned the phone to Gu Yan, stood up and walked straight out.

  Gu Yan held the phone and shouted, “What are you going to see?”


  “To see who he is.”


  Fu Tingyu walked out without turning his head.

  Gu Yan retracted his gaze and looked at the phone, looking at the photos he secretly took. “Yu doesn’t even know him, why would he say that he’s Yu’s friend?”


  Fu Tingyu drove his car to the sign at his fastest speed possible. He hoped that he hadn’t left yet.

  The stop sign wasn’t far from the hotel. It didn’t take long for him to reach the stop sign.

  He pushed open the car door and got out. Looking at the stop sign, the person was not there anymore.

  Qin Shu got into the car and left just a minute before Fu Tingyu arrived.

  Fu Tingyu looked around but didn’t see that person. The doubt in his heart grew.

  Who exactly was he?……

  Fu Tingyu returned to the hotel and walked into the guest room.

  Gu Yan saw he returned and asked, “How was it? Did you see him?”


  “No, when I went, he had left.” Fu Tingyu sat down on the sofa and frowned slightly.

  “Did he purposely not letting you know who he was?” Gu Yan guessed.

  Fu Tingyu was also thinking that he was deliberately hiding his identity.

  “Send me that photo. I’ll get someone to check it out.”


  “Okay.” Gu Yan sent the photo to him.

  “I’ve booked a bus ticket back to the capital at six o’clock. Do you want to go to the capital?” Fu Tingyu picked up his phone and looked at the photo again. He felt that it was somewhat familiar.

  “I’ll go with you.” Gu Yan wanted to check Qin Shu’s pulse to see how her body was recovering.

  He seemed to have remembered something. “Did you rush here from the capital?”


  “Yes,” Fu Tingyu answered.

  “Then, is everything okay between you and her?” Gu Yan asked tentatively.

  Fu Tingyu’s eyes froze. The thought of her taking the want birth control pill suddenly flashed through his mind, and he gripped his phone tightly.

  Gu Yan sensed that something was wrong with him, he had a bad feeling. “What’s wrong with you?”


  Fu Tingyu tilted his head and looked at Gu Yan. He pursed his lips tightly. Was he going to tell him that his wife was unwilling to bear his child?

  Gu Yan felt a chill down his spine as he felt that something must have happened between him and Qin Shu.

  He licked his dry lips and tried to explain for Qin Shu, “If she did something, there must be a reason. Don’t think too much about it.”


  Fu Tingyu was silent for a long time. He opened his mouth, wanting to say that she did this because she hated him.

  In the end, he didn’t say a word.

  “Qin Shu……”


  Gu Yan wanted to ask more, but Fu Tingyu interrupted him, “Get ready. We’ll go to the station later.”


  After that, he stood up and walked to the balcony. He took out a cigarette from the box and lit it.

  Gu Yan put one hand on the back of the sofa and turned his head to look at the balcony. He stood tall and straight in front of the fence with a cigarette between his fingers.

  He did not know what had happened between them, so he had no way to ask.

  Could it be that Qin Shu rejected Yu’s request to share a room with her?

  That was all he could think of.

  Gu Yan stood up and changed his clothes. He then walked to the balcony and stood beside Fu Tingyu.

  He did not smoke, but he knew that the man was smoking silently because he had something on his mind.

  “What’s going on between you and Qin Shu? Can’t you tell me?”


  Fu Tingyu took a puff of the cigarette. Thick white smoke came out from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Gu Yan through the smoke, “You’re right. Everyone does what they want to do. It’s the same reason why she doesn’t like me yet I still want to marry her as my wife.”


  He took another drag of his cigarette. “She lied to me because she wanted to be free and I have to admit it. It’s because I love her.”


  Then he took another drag of his cigarette, trying to ease the pain in his heart.

  He was human and had a heart, how could he not feel the pain?

  When he knew that she took the contraceptive pill, it was like waking up the pain in his heart. The pain could not be suppressed and he wanted to vent it out.

  In the end, he could only stop it in his throat, and the pain was hard to bear.

  Gu Yan realized that the situation was far more serious than he had expected. Seeing that he had such an expression, he felt uncomfortable. “Yu, what exactly did she say?”


  “She didn’t say anything. What she said now is what I like to hear.” Fu Tingyu lowered his eyes and sat on the fence in front of him. His slender legs were pressed against the ground, and he continued to smoke.

  “Then how do you know that she’s lying to you?” Gu Yan asked.

  “Isn’t there must a purpose to a person’s sudden change?”


  At first, he was against her change, but he accepted it later because of……
