Beauty Wu was indeed Elegant Beauty. Wei Shuyi felt that it was too outrageous, but when he thought about it carefully, he wasn’t surprised.

  After they fell in love, Wei Shuyi would occasionally discover some clues from Beauty Wu’s attitude.

  He had long suspected that Beauty Wu knew him. He had asked her, but Beauty Wu denied it.

  Back then, Elegant Beauty did not deceive him…


  Wei Shuyi was overjoyed.

  Wei Shuyi continued to read the past emails. As he scrolled from the top to the bottom, he recalled more memories.

  Elegant Beauty: [I’m very happy. My younger brother actually made a friend in the hospital. Even though that friend’s results are not good, it’s already very good that he can play games with my younger brother. My younger brother has a friend, and I’m really happy for him. I’ve decided that I will also be very good to my younger brother’s friend. I hope that after my younger brother has a friend, he can live more and more happily in the future.]

  His reply: [They met in the hospital?]

  Elegant Beauty: [Yes.]

  Elegant Beauty: [Today at 11: 20 pm, I pushed my younger brother into the operating theater. My younger brother, who has always been strong and fearless, told me that he was afraid. At 21: 42 pm, I brought my younger brother back to the ward. There were two clear tears on his face. My younger brother told me in his daze that he was in pain. Forgive me for crying. Brother, he will recover soon, right?]

  His reply: [He will get better and better.]

  Elegant Beauty: [You said you’re studying in a university. You’re already in your third year? Which school are you in? Can you tell me? I can look for you.]

  His reply: [I won’t date a minor.]

  Elegant Beauty: [I received the comics you sent. They’re all very good and I like them very much. But my favorite is still the comic you drew. I’ve decided. I’m going to Taobao to find a shop that makes keychains. I’ll make the ones you drew into acrylic keychains and carry them with me in the future.]

  His reply: [It’s ugly.]

  Elegant Beauty replied: [It’s okay, it’s very cute. This is considered a love token.]

  Elegant Beauty: [I’m 16 years old today! I can fall in love in two years and am no longer underaged. Brother, let’s go to a hotel together.]

  His reply: [I’m very curious. Are you a girl?]

  Elegant Beauty replied: [Of course, it’s the real deal. Do you want to check the goods? However, you can’t check the goods before I turn 18.]

  His reply: [As long as you’re happy.]

  Elegant Beauty: [What has Elder Brother been busy with recently? My younger brother is about to graduate from middle school. The middle school curriculum is still a little difficult for him. I reckon that he can only study in an ordinary high school. I hope that in a new school, he can make new friends. However, it is becoming more obvious that his IQ doesn’t match his peers as he grows older. In the future, it will be harder and harder for him to make friends. There’s also good news. I’ve found a heart that matches my younger brother. He can undergo heart transplant surgery in September this year. I haven’t been online recently. I feel like I haven’t seen you for many days. I miss you. Can you give me a photo of you? It’s good to look at it when I can’t see you.]

  His reply: [No photos.]

  Elegant Beauty: [Then take one.]

  His reply: [It’s been uploaded to the couple’s homepage.]

  Elegant Beauty replied: [Wow! Brother, you’re really good-looking. You look like my future husband.]

  His reply: [… You’re really amazing. You can predict the future.]

  Elegant beauty replied: [Of course. I calculated with my fingers that we will get married and live happily ever after. We will have two children, a son and a daughter.]

  His reply: [… You’re overthinking.]

  After reading the email, Wei Shuyi only had one thought in his mind—To see Beauty Wu!

  His entire heart was filled with Beauty Wu.

  The way she smiled, the way she dressed in the police uniform, the way she cried, the way she looked brave, the way she looked like a gangster… Countless different images of Beauty Wu appeared in his heart and they were all the person he loved the most.

  He could not wait to see her.

  Once this thought was born, it grew uncontrollably and took root in his heart.

  He turned off his computer and reorganized his post-production work schedule. He wanted to take the shortest time possible to apply for leave and return to the country to see the person he liked.

  After settling everything, Wei Shuyi lay on his bed. He couldn’t help but view Beauty Wu’s WeChat and enter her personal photo album. The last time she updated was a week ago. She had uploaded the flower pot containing wild lilies. During this season, the lilies had already started to wither and were preparing to go into hibernation.

  She wrote a word for the photo: Dead?

  Wei Shuyi’s heart skipped a beat. He guessed that she must have felt sad when she uploaded this.

  Lilies would not die.

  He left a message: [They’re just dormant and will bloom next year.]

  Ever since she met Wei Shuyi, Beauty Wu had been constantly hypnotizing herself to forget him.

  Gradually, she learned not to habitually look at his WeChat messages, and she also developed a good habit of reading more and playing less on her phone.

  The past few days had been quite peaceful in the police station. There were no big movements, and they would occasionally go to the police station in the middle of the night to investigate those places with noise. They were really not used to such small fights. Today, at nine in the morning, Kang Hui treated Beauty Wu to coffee.

  There was an automatic beverage counter downstairs. Kang Hui threw in a ten yuan bill, and two bottles of coffee and two coins rolled out.

  Beauty Wu picked up the cold coffee and said to Kang Hui, “This is the coffee your treating me to?” She pulled open the can and took a sip. She said, “The taste is just not as good as Starbucks.” There was a reason why it was expensive.

  Kang Hui rolled his eyes.

  “It’s good enough that you get to drink it. You even ask for more.”


  “Hmph.”


  The two of them took their coffee and walked into the building. As they walked, Beauty Wu read WeChat. Seeing that there was an unread notification, Beauty Wu casually clicked on it. Seeing that it was Wei Shuyi who had commented, Beauty Wu suddenly stopped in her tracks.

  They’re just dormant and will bloom next year.

  What did this mean?

  Her heart was beating violently. She could hear it clearly in her chest. There, there were waves of intense beating.

  However, she did not dare to think too much about it. She was afraid that she was wrong.

  “What’s wrong?” Kang Hui stopped when he saw her suddenly stop.

  Beauty Wu shook her head. “Nothing.” She put away her phone and did not allow her thoughts to run wild.

  “Oh.”


  They were about to go upstairs again when they finally stood behind a glass window in a corner.

  Kang Hui suddenly said, “I might get married at the end of the year.”


  “Huh?” Beauty Wu was so shocked that she forgot to drink her coffee.

  Looking up at Kang Hui’s handsome side profile, Beauty Wu was surprised for a long time before she shut her mouth and smiled beautifully. “Then congratulations!” She thought for a while and said, “I only have 100,000 yuan in my card. Pick a gift…”


  After a pause, she said, “If it exceeds 50,000 yuan, I won’t send it.”


  Kang Hui was speechless. He wondered why the friendship still existed after she said the last sentence.
