Ye Qiu has passed away. They just thought that Ye Qiu might still be missing after he got lost. If they knew the truth, it would be better for them not to find him in their lifetime.

Yu Zhi put the pocket watch back into his pocket and opened the photo album, which he had sorted out later.

There are only photos of myself and Ye Qiu in the album.

That's all Yu Zhi wanted to take away, but Meng Yingnian walked around Yu Zhi's room, took one of Yu Zhi's medals, another award certificate, a trophy, a drinking cup...

Later, when he couldn't take any more, Meng Yingnian casually took out a bag and took away everything that had traces of Yu Zhi.

Yu Zhi: “…”

Meng Yingnian thinks that these things carry Yu Zhi's memories and there is no need to keep them in Yu's house. However, Yu Zhi thinks that they are all dispensable things.

However, Yu Zhi did not stop Meng Yingnian. Meng Yingnian rummaged through the drawers and checked every corner before stopping.

Despite this, Yu Zhi didn't have many things, and they could all be put into one bag.

Yu Chengkun wanted to invite Meng Yingnian to dinner to discuss the project, but Meng Yingnian refused.

The goal has been achieved, there is no need to waste time with them anymore.

Yu Zhi doesn't like acting, and Meng Yingnian doesn't want to flatter them.

The driver was still waiting for them at the door. Yu Zhi looked back one last time, then got in the car and left without any reluctance.

The Yu family was no longer the same as he remembered. There was no Ye Qiu in the house, no flowers and plants that Ye Qiu liked, and now there was no trace of Yu Zhi and Ye Qiu.

After getting in the car, Meng Yingnian asked Yu Zhi: "Is there anywhere else you want to go, or should we go have a meal first?"

"No, I want to go home."

Yu Zhi left the home where he had lived for more than ten years and said that he wanted to go home, the home where Meng Yingnian was.

Meng Yingnian held Yu Zhi's hand, and the two rings intertwined: "Okay, let's go home."

They first went back to the hotel and then took a car straight to the airport, booking the next flight.

Meng Yingnian took Yu Zhi to the airport to eat something to fill their stomachs.

After getting on the plane, Yu Zhi was no longer as depressed as when he came, and he felt a little excited.

I want to return to Jingbei as soon as possible, return to the Meng family, return to the home that belongs to me and Meng Yingnian.

Yu Zhi kept stroking the pocket watch in his hand, and Meng Yingnian also saw the photo.

"Zhizhi, have you ever thought about finding your mother's family?"

Yu Zhi had thought about it before, but he stopped thinking about it when he grew up because he already knew what death meant.

Even if we really find it, it will become a regret for everyone.

All Ye Qiu has left now is a pocket watch, a photo album and a tombstone.

These are the only proof that she has lived in this world.

Yu Zhi shook his head: "No, the person is dead, there is no point anymore."

Yu Zhi himself had no obsession with these relatives whom he had never met before, and he was not that obsessed with family affection itself.

I don't intend to disrupt my current stable life for some relatives who I am not sure whether I can find or are still alive.

"Okay." Meng Yingnian respected all of Yu Zhi's decisions.

Only after landing in northern Beijing did Yu Zhi truly feel at ease, a feeling that the Yu family could never give him.

The first thing Meng Yingnian did when he landed was to instruct Chen Xun to handle Ye Qiu's matter and ensure that it was done perfectly.

Chen Xun returned to work a week ago and his work efficiency remains as high as before.

Meng Yingnian carried all the things he brought back from Yu's house with him, wiped them clean and put them away one by one when he returned home.

Yu Zhi watched Meng Yingnian busying around, sometimes wondering where to put this, sometimes thinking about where to put that.

As if these were some kind of antique treasures.

A trace of sweetness leaks out from the cracks in my heart, and it is so full that it can’t be contained.

After all the trouble, Meng Yingnian turned around and saw Yu Zhi, only to remember that neither of them had a proper meal the whole day.

He hurriedly asked Deng Yang to go to the kitchen and tell them to cook.

The kitchen was full of ready-made ingredients, and they didn't have to wait long before the hot meals were served.

When Yu Zhi smelled the familiar fragrance, he realized he was hungry and started to eat with relish.

Meng Yingnian also ate two more bites.

After dinner, the two of them went their separate ways, one to the studio and the other to the study.

Yu Zhi has already drawn up the manuscript and started to formally create his entry. First, he will make a rough draft to remove excess stones, which can greatly reduce the probability of mistakes.

Stone carving is more difficult to create than wood carving, and the production cycle is longer. If you make a mistake, you have to start over again, so every step must be done with extreme caution.

The studio had been messed up by Yu Zhi. The corners were filled with stones and wood, some of which Yu Zhi bought himself, and some of which Meng Yingnian had someone buy. There were also picture frames and various brushes and paints leaning against the wall.

The studio is now dusty and the floor is dirty.

Fortunately, there are servants at home cleaning regularly, otherwise Yu Zhi would not be able to clean up by himself. They will not touch Yu Zhi's things and will put things back in their original place after cleaning.

Yu Zhi would only start after repeated consideration. He didn't finish making the embryo after one night and one day at the weekend, so he could only continue after returning next week.

The end of the semester is approaching, and Yu Zhi seems to have done nothing this semester. The school anniversary was held a month after the start of the second semester of his sophomore year, followed by the sports meet, and later he was busy with the sculpture design competition.

Another week later, it was review week again. Lin Yunsong stopped playing games to get higher scores and focused on studying and doing homework.

Towards the end of the semester, there are fewer and fewer courses. Some courses have already ended and are beginning to assign review tasks or final assignments. There is more spare time, but that does not mean more free time.

Final assignments and review are not easy tasks, especially for majors like Yu Zhi’s, which have many courses, the task will only be more arduous.

After class that night, Yu Zhi stayed in the classroom for an extra hour. He asked Lin Yunsong to eat first and then go back to the dormitory.

Lin Yunsong wanted to accompany him, but Yu Zhi said that he didn't know when he would be able to finish it, so Lin Yunsong had to leave alone.

After leaving the classroom, Yu Zhi went to the cafeteria to have dinner before heading towards the dormitory building.

This cafeteria is close to his previous dormitory building but still some distance away from their new dormitory building.

The new dormitory building of the Academy of Fine Arts was newly built in an area of Peking University. It is not far from the Academy of Fine Arts, but it is located in a corner of Peking University. One advantage is that it is convenient for getting takeout.

Most of the people living here are students from the Academy of Fine Arts. After moving into the new dormitory building, students from the Academy of Fine Arts no longer have to go to the playground or gymnasium. The dormitory building has all the necessary sports facilities and a cafe, so they don’t even have to go to the study room.

It was neither early nor late at this time, and there were not many people on the road. Only the dim street lights elongated the shadows of people.

There was a sound of footsteps behind Yu Zhi, sometimes light and sometimes heavy. Yu Zhi didn't notice it at first, but discovered it when he got near the dormitory building.

He slowed down his pace and just as he was about to turn around, he heard someone calling his name.

"Yu Zhi." Zhao Lian had been looking for an opportunity to talk to Yu Zhi again. He had seen Yu Zhi being picked up by a luxury car more than once, but he had never seen the man suspected to be Yu Zhi's boyfriend.

He had the photo he had taken from the forum saved in his phone, but apart from Yu Zhi, he couldn't see anything else about the other man, so he had no way of judging.

He only knew that whether it was picking him up for military training or transferring him out of the dormitory, Lu Baizhou's expulsion from school was all done by that person, and even the school leaders had to act according to that person's mood.

Zhao Lian wasn't sure whether Yu Zhi was doing it voluntarily or forced, but Yu Zhi had been living in Shanghai before college, so it was impossible for him to know any big shots in northern Beijing.

He had previously thought that he was a senior executive of Rongming, but later he felt that it was not worth it. Rongming was just a private bank in Shanghai and had no say in the affairs of Jingbei. This showed that the person behind Yu Zhi was very powerful.

It was obvious that he was the one who knew Yu Zhi first and fell in love with Yu Zhi. If it weren't for that incident, he might have been together with Yu Zhi.

He didn't want to do that either. On one side was his father, and on the other side was the person he loved. Besides, when Yu Zhi told the truth in front of his classmates, he didn't refute it, right?

Now that his father is dead, all debts are settled. He will definitely have a chance, he definitely will.

As long as he makes it up to Yu Zhi in the future, Yu Zhi will definitely be willing to be with him.

No matter how capable that person is, he can't bring Yu Zhi home. Rich people like to support rich college students. This is not something that can be made public, otherwise why hasn't his identity been revealed?

Yu Zhi must have been deceived by the other party and believed the other party's sweet words and sugar-coated bullets.

Zhao Lian majored in art history at the same Academy of Fine Arts, but he had been moved to the Information Engineering dormitory by Meng Yingnian.

All the students in the Academy of Fine Arts moved to new dormitories, but he still lived there alone. One student lived on the east side, and the other lived on the west side, which were quite far away from each other.

They have relatively few professional courses, most of which are theoretical courses, and the academic workload is relatively easy, so he has enough time to work part-time outside the school.

Rong Ming extended their repayment period, and Zhao Lian finally had some time to breathe.

Yu Zhi spent most of his time at school with Lin Yunsong, and for a while he even went home every day. Recently, Zhao Lian had some free time, and he finally caught up with Yu Zhi.

He prepared himself mentally along the way and planned to talk things out with Yu Zhi.

Yu Zhi recognized the owner of the voice, gave up the idea of looking back, and walked quickly towards the dormitory building.

He didn't want to get entangled with Zhao Lian at all. In his heart, Zhao Lian was as disgusting as his father. There was no difference between a criminal murderer and an accomplice in covering up the truth.

Zhao Lian saw Yu Zhi suddenly quicken his pace and hurriedly chased after him to block his way.

"Yu Zhi, I have something to tell you."

Zhao Lian had only ever been in love with Yu Zhi. Yu Zhi was beautiful and aloof, and his every move attracted him. Although he was a beta and he was an omega, this did not stop his heart from fluttering.

He studied hard to get into Kyoto University even though his father died of a serious illness and his family was bankrupt and in debt. He chose a major he didn't like, all just to be closer to Yu Zhi.

He would never give up Yu Zhi unless he died. He had nothing now, and Yu Zhi was his only hope.

Yu Zhi turned around, not even looking at him, and said, "I have nothing to say to you."

Zhao Lian still stood in front of Yu Zhi: "Yu Zhi, don't be with that person. Being with that kind of person will not end well."

Yu Zhi almost laughed out loud when he heard Zhao Lian say this: "What kind of person is he? What kind of person do you think he is? Why would he be with you instead of him?"

Yu Zhi glanced up and down at Zhao Lian and sneered, "You?"

How did Meng Yingnian become that kind of person in his mouth? Or did Zhao Lian feel that he was so lowly that he was willing to be someone's lover?

How can he be qualified to evaluate himself and Meng Yingnian?

It's always like this. Whenever I think I have gotten over my experiences in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, someone will jump out and pour a bucket of cold water on my head to remind me that those things are not over yet.

Zhao Lian's heart ached at Yu Zhi's reaction, but he still said, "Why can't it be me? It could be someone else, why not me? We knew each other first, and I was the one who fell in love with you first. If nothing had happened, how could someone else have gotten there first?"

"Something happened. What happened? Do you dare to tell me?"

"You dare to tell those people, tell everyone, that it was your father who planned to rape me at your birthday party, and then you turned the tables and accused me of seducing him."

"And you, his good son, perjured yourself and joined him in throwing dirty water on me."

"It was your family that almost drove me to despair."
