d besides, he's too old!Ho Shaoting didn't want to get entangled with her, and he quickly and decisively rejected the woman's advances. In fact, if he hadn't bumped into Wen Man, he probably would ha...Lu You still broke free from Zhang Baiyan.

Under a sky filled with neon lights, they emerged from the banquet, each adorned in elegant attire. Handsome men and beautiful women stood together, their presence radiating an undeniable charm. If fate had not separated them, they could easily be described as a golden couple.

But in Lu You's heart, it was over.

She lowered her eyes, avoiding his gaze.

Zhang Baiyan gazed at her. He remembered when Lu You laughed, her eyes held the vastness of stars and the sea.

Now she has taken it all back.

At this time, a black RV drove over slowly, it was Lu You's driver. As soon as the car stopped, the secretary immediately got out of the car: "Mr. Lu, let me help you!"

The secretary was someone Ye Bai was used to, and Lu You did not replace her.

Therefore, the secretary looked at Zhang Baiyan with a hint of protectiveness and caution in her eyes.

Lu You faintly said, “I’m fine, no need.”

And then she got into the back seat of the car.

The secretary hurriedly helped her close the car door and, turning back to look at Zhang Baiyan, smiled wryly: "Zhang Zong, goodbye."

The night was cool as water, and Zhang Baian stood there quietly.

He was separated from Lu You by only a car window. Lu You could see him, but he couldn't see her.

After a long pause, he softly said, “Goodbye.”

The secretary got into the car.

Moments later, the car started slowly.

The precious black body, glittering under neon lights, I don't know how many passersby have been dazzled by it... Lu You leaned lightly against the back seat, staring at the night outside.

The secretary saw that she was in a bad mood and tried to find a topic: "Mr. Lu, is this outfit you're wearing limited edition in China I heard it only appeared at the show, so this must be your first time wearing it."

Lu You didn't hear clearly for a moment.

After a long pause, the secretary laughed dryly: "I meant the dress was beautiful."

Lu You came back to her senses, a faint smile on her lips, just about to say something... When she suddenly caught sight of a tall figure by the roadside, dressed all in black and wearing a baseball cap.

Although her whole body was covered up tightly, her back shape resembled that of a person.

He… he looks a lot like Ye Bai.

Lu You's lips trembled, her whole body lifted up, her palm pressed flat against the car glass... She wanted to call Ye Bai, but her mouth moved halfway and couldn't utter a word. She wanted to ask the driver to stop, but her throat could only make a gasp of air.

...Yebai...

Lu You's palm began to beat against the car window, producing a faint sound.

"Leaf...White."

"Leaves… Leaves… White."

……

Both the driver and the secretary were startled.

At this moment, the secretary also saw that person. The side profile looked very much like Mr. Ye.

But Mr. Ye... is already dead.

How could it be Mr. Ye!

But she didn't dare to say it, because Lu You had always deeply believed that Ye Zong hadn't died... No one dared to easily pierce through such a thought.

If even this little hope is shattered, Lu You will have a much harder time.

So the secretary, her eyes glistening, turned to the driver and said, "Stop! Stop immediately!"

The driver hit the brakes.

The car came to a rather abrupt stop. As soon as it did, Lu You quickly jumped out and dashed towards Ye Bai on the neon-lit street. She didn't even realize she was wearing high heels.

Lu You could hear, her own heart beating, thump-thump.

Her palms were sweaty.

Finally, she came to the person's back and called out softly, "Ye Bai."

The man froze.

Lu You's slender fingers curled and uncurled. She summoned her courage and called out again, "Ye Bai..." The man finally turned around.

That was a young face, very beautiful, but it wasn't Ye Bai.

He looked at Lu You.

Looking at the woman in her beautiful clothes and expensive jewelry, he said with a mixture of astonishment and confusion: "I'm sorry, miss, you have the wrong person."

Lu You just stared at him blankly.

The streetlight illuminated her face, no amount of makeup could hide the paleness that crept over it now. The only color was in the tear at the corner of her eye, reflecting the neon lights of the street.

The young man hesitated for a moment, apologized, and then turned and left.

Lu You was still standing there.

Her secretary came over and called her from behind the fence, but she didn't hear.

She just stood there, mumbling, "I clearly saw Ye Bai! It was definitely Ye Bai... so how is it not him now"

The secretary was wearing a knee-length skirt, which was very inconvenient.

She ripped the hem of her skirt and, crossing over the railing to stand beside Lu You, whispered, “Maybe I was mistaken! Perhaps next time, it really will be Mr. Ye.”

As she said this, the secretary felt saddened too.

She knew these words were just to comfort Lu You, no one believed Ye Bai could come back...Such a high place, the scene was so terrible.

Lu You pretended not to hear.

She stood stubbornly there for a very long time... until her legs could no longer hold her, she slowly crouched down, hugging herself with her arms. She sat on the curb sobbing quietly.

When the night is deep and still, amidst the bustling street.

The secretary stood beside her, accompanying her...

Actually, she was a little envious of Lu You in the past. She had the best background and the most outstanding appearance... No matter what she did, someone would give her support. Even Ye Zong's company, she dared to take over as an outsider.

What's the basis for this Just because her last name is Lu.

But at that moment, when Lu You was crying in the street out of longing for Ye Bai, ignoring her status and dignity, she realized she didn't envy them anymore.

Because wealth can be accumulated, but people who leave can never come back.

……

Night had fallen.

Far away, Zhang Baiyan's car was parked there. He sat in the car, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly.

He watched Lu You cry.

He watched Lu You crumble for Ye Bai, he watched her sadness like never before.

Even he, Zhang Baiyan, had not been able to make her feel this way.

Never before had this moment made Zhang Baiyan feel so acutely the weight of Lu You's forgetfulness towards him and her love for Ye Bai... Even though it was Ye Bai who left, even though he, Zhang Baiyan, had been by her side for over a year.

Perhaps, some things time cannot heal.

He suddenly felt a little curious again, about what about Ye Bai that Lu You loved... He was truly a bit curious.

Is it eternal companionship

But now Ye Bai can no longer accompany her!

So, Zhang Baiyan couldn't understand.

……

From that day on, Lu You habitually looked out the window when taking a car.

She had seen many people whose backs resembled Ye Bai.

But, none of them was him!

Slowly, her heart grew heavier and heavier with dread. She gradually realized... perhaps Ye Bai would never come back again.

Zhang Baiyan still came to see the child.

The mother-in-law has also come over a few times. She isn't stupid either. Her son runs here every day, if that child wasn't from the Zhang family, she wouldn't believe it.

She also specially ran to City C once again to look for Lu Qian.

Lu Qian saw her.

He said that children's affairs should be resolved by the children themselves, and it was inconvenient for elders to interfere... Chapter Mother made every effort, but nothing worked.
