Beauty Wu would remember how ridiculous this night in the outskirts was for the rest of her life.

  The next day, they set off home.

  On the plane, Wei Shuyi saw that Beauty Wu was asleep and went to the toilet.

  There were only four days left of the 24-day vacation.

  The moment he returned to Binjiang City, Wei Shuyi felt a sense of belonging.

  The two of them walked out of the airport side by side.

  There were many people in the airport. Gradually, Wei Shuyi’s increasingly thin figure was squeezed into the crowd. Beauty Wu looked at his tall but thin body and felt a lump in her throat. She subconsciously stopped in her tracks.

  Wei Shuyi dragged his luggage and walked in front, not realizing that Beauty Wu had fallen behind. He was still talking to her gently, “Let’s have lemon sauce pig’s tail tonight, okay?”


  After not hearing Beauty Wu’s reply, Wei Shuyi stopped in his tracks. He turned around and saw Beauty Wu standing two to three meters behind him, staring at him with a pair of worried eyes.

  He almost stopped smiling.

  “What’s wrong?” Wei Shuyi tried to sound normal.

  Beauty Wu stopped smiling and revealed a tired and sad expression. She said to Wei Shuyi, “Brother, I really can’t continue acting.”


  Wei Shuyi was stunned.

  She was flustered, but her expression was calm.

  “What are you talking about?”


  The confusion on his face was very convincing.

  When Beauty Wu saw this, she started to suspect if she was wrong.

  She walked in front of him and looked up into his hazel eyes. Beauty Wu said, “You’ve been too unusual recently. I don’t know what you’re hiding from me, but I’ve been secretly observing you recently. I thought that if you didn’t tell me, I would pretend not to know and cooperate with your acting.”


  “Do you really think I’m a fool? Am I that stupid? You suddenly ran back to the country without telling me and even dragged me on a trip. You even bought so many gifts for Ah Sheng and the children! Brother, have you forgotten that I’m a police officer?”


  “That day, I went to look for Captain Wang to apply for leave, and he agreed without a word. Do you really think I didn’t notice something strange? That night, I called Dr. Kai Li from your clinic. Guess what he said. He said that you’ve already submitted an application to end your studies early!”


  “Brother, what are you hiding from me!”


  Beauty Wu kept venting to Wei Shuyi, and her eyes gradually turned red.

  Wei Shuyi remained silent.

  He was a little shocked.

  It turned out that Beauty had already noticed something unusual on the first day he returned.

  Seeing that he didn’t say anything, Beauty Wu felt even more upset. She said, “These days, when it’s time to laugh, I’ll laugh. When it’s time to say sweet nothings, I’ll say it. Whatever you want to do, I’ll accompany you.” So when Wei Shuyi suggested going to Nepal, Beauty Wu didn’t hesitate and went with him.

  “Are you still unwilling to tell me the truth even now!”


  Looking at the sparkling light in Beauty Wu’s eyes, Wei Shuyi’s expression darkened. He felt terrible, as if his throat was being held tightly by a hand. Even breathing was difficult.

  Beauty Wu took a deep breath and held back her tears.

  She suddenly said, “I wasn’t asleep on the plane just now.”


  Wei Shuyi’s face turned pale and his eyes darted around.

  Beauty Wu said in a sobbing voice, “I heard your suppressed cries of pain in the toilet. I also heard you banging on the toilet door…” On the third day after arriving in Lhasa, Beauty Wu had discovered a pattern. That was, every 2pm in the afternoon, Wei Shuyi would find a reason to leave for a period of time.

  Usually, he would be gone for half an hour or so.

  If it was just a coincidence, then how could it be explained if it happened again and again?

  This feeling of not knowing what happened to Wei Shuyi made Beauty Wu panic and fear.

  Beauty Wu finally couldn’t help but cry.

  She dropped her luggage and squatted down on the spot. She hugged her knees and cried.

  The people who came and went all looked at the woman who suddenly cried. Some of them had caring eyes, while others had indifferent eyes. Wei Shuyi looked at the woman crying below him and his heart ached. “Beauty…” Wei Shuyi’s voice became hoarse.

  He squatted down and hugged Beauty Wu tightly.

  “Don’t cry. I’m fine. Be good. Stop crying. I’m really fine.”


  “You’re lying to me! You’re a liar!” How could a healthy person be in so much pain that he could not help but knock himself on the door? How could he lose so much weight in just a few days?

  Wei Shuyi couldn’t bear to hear Beauty Wu’s cries.

  The reason why he didn’t dare to say it was because he was afraid Beauty Wu would be like this.

  After thinking about it, Wei Shuyi said, “If you’re worried, we’ll go to the hospital for a checkup now. Let’s go to Deep Sea Hospital, okay?”


  Beauty Wu finally looked up.

  She wiped her eyes and said, “No, you’re on the same side as the people from Deep Sea Hospital. I don’t believe you!”


  “…Then the People’s Hospital?”


  “…Yeah.”


  Beauty Wu rubbed her eyes and stood up. She picked up her luggage and took Wei Shuyi to the People’s Hospital.

  Drawing blood, taking an x-ray…


  The doctor was busy until he got off work.

  The results of the checkup didn’t come out until the next day. When he returned home, Beauty Wu didn’t even eat. Seeing her like this, Wei Shuyi felt even worse.

  That night, Wei Shuyi and Beauty Wu didn’t fall asleep.

  The next morning, Wei Shuyi looked out of the window in a daze.

  Countdown of three days… Seeing the green color in Beauty Wu’s eyes, Wei Shuyi felt even more uncomfortable. The two of them didn’t speak on the way to the hospital. They sat around the back of the taxi, separated by a distance of a two hundred pound overweight person…
