The love story of a wealthy family amid anti-fraud storm at the border

After a day and a night, Ling Yue still didn't wait for Yi Chen.

She came to the company and learned that Yi Chen was in the command center, so she did not go to disturb him.

Because she had an agreement with Director Lin from the command center, she could not reveal the secret that she was assisting the command center in carrying out its mission.

She originally just wanted to help Yi Chen, but she was also worried that Yi Chen would object to her joining the mission.

She looked around Yi Chen's office alone.

She sat at Yi Chen's desk and recalled the night when they met for the first time after twenty years of separation.

He was seriously injured again.

Suddenly, Ling Yue turned around and the large floor-to-ceiling window behind Yi Chen's seat caught her attention.

She opened the blinds and what appeared before her was the company's large terrace.

This scene shocked Ling Yue.

It turned out that Lin Yi had followed Yi Chen's instructions to join the company.

All the joys, sorrows, anger and happiness that he had shown on the terrace were visible to Yi Chen.

Has he always been caring about me silently?

"Ling Yue, I will always be by your side and never leave."

Yi Chen's words rang in Ling Yue's ears.

It turned out that Yi Chen had never broken his promise to herself and had really been trying his best to accompany Ling Yue in his own way.

The snow during last year’s Spring Festival.

She stood alone on the terrace, watching the New Year's Eve fireworks and missing him.

In this situation, I think Yi Chen is missing her too.

Suddenly, Ling Yue's eyes were unconsciously attracted to Yi Chen's desk drawer.

Curiosity drove her to open it because this was the only drawer that was not locked.

She gently opened the drawer and saw a special box inside.

When she opened the box, the object inside made Ling Yue cover her mouth and she instantly became nervous.

I saw that at the bottom was a stack of neatly folded silk scarves.

There were probably a dozen or so of them, left by Ling Yue every time she wrapped his hands.

Two of them had faint traces of blood on them.

This……

Why is there blood? Is it Yichen's?

Thinking of this moment, Ling Yue felt a sharp pain in her heart.

What did he go through during those years of separation?

There is a brocade box on top of the scarf, which contains the military medals that Yi Chen had won in the special forces.

One first-class merit and three second-class merits.

Another unique brocade box is not big, but very special.

When I opened the box, I found out that it was the wedding ring that he had used to propose to me.

At the scene of the evacuation operation, Yi Chen thought he would never be able to return, so he solemnly proposed to Ling Yue.

Although Ling Yue agreed, the two missed each other for some reasons.

This missed opportunity lasted for a full twenty years.

For an adult, how many twenty years can he have in his life?

There was also a thick stack of plane tickets.

Some people travel between South City and South Africa, while others travel between South City and the border.

Ling Yue carefully checked the time of each flight ticket.

If I remember correctly, the flight to South Africa was the same flight that I took to join the medical rescue team.

In total, there were four trips to and from South Africa and 26 trips to and from the border.

Was it for himself that he traveled back and forth to the border so frequently three years ago?

Ling Yue tried hard to recall the three years since she came back from South Africa and went to the border alone after divorcing Gu Chenxin.

No wonder the kind-hearted Xiaoji always told Ling Yue that there was an uncle who often visited her.

No wonder the relief supplies never stopped even when my village encountered a snowstorm.

No wonder every time I’m on my period, someone always offers me a cup of cola ginger tea.

When I need ibuprofen, I always have two. I never give more...

No wonder I was able to escape danger when I was lost in the mountains.

No wonder she always felt like someone was watching her.

Ling Yue's tears burst out uncontrollably. The past that had been buried by time now stirred up a storm in her heart.

With trembling hands, she picked up these objects that carried deep love and longing one by one, and then gently put them down, as if they were the most precious treasures in the world.

Ling Yue put all the items back into the box and then back into the drawer.

When she left the company, it was already night time.

There is no news about Yi Chen yet.

She walked back absentmindedly, not realizing that there was a person following her not far away.

He followed her all the way from her to the company.

Then he waited for her downstairs in the company.

He continued to follow Ling Yue until she left the company.

Although, he was madly jealous of Ling Yue's actions.

Although he really wanted to appear in front of Ling Yue and tell her how much he missed her.

But in the end he still didn't have the courage.

Gu Chenxin just watched Ling Yue walking on the street.

The dim street lights stretched her shadow very long, making her look so lonely and desolate.

He felt mixed emotions. The woman who used to be his wife was now a stranger to him.

And her deep affection for Yi Chen was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart.

Ling Yue was completely unaware of the "tail" behind him. He was immersed in his own thoughts and walked with unsteady steps.

Suddenly, a motorcycle came rushing towards her with no sign of slowing down.

At the critical moment, Gu Chenxin had no time to think, rushed forward and pulled Ling Yue aside.

Ling Yue turned around in surprise and saw that it was Gu Chenxin.

A complex emotion flashed in her eyes, including surprise, confusion, and more of indifference.

"Are you OK?"

Gu Chenxin was breathing heavily, his voice filled with a hint of nervousness and concern.

He had never imagined that the two would meet in such a way under such circumstances.

Ling Yue calmed herself down and gently broke free from Gu Chenxin's hand.

Her tone was very cold.

"Thank you, what are you doing here?"

Gu Chenxin opened his mouth, but didn't know how to answer.

He couldn't say he had been following her like a voyeur.

The two of them just stood on the side of the road awkwardly, the atmosphere was so depressing that it was suffocating.

After a long while, Gu Chenxin mustered up the courage to say:

"Yuer, let's find a place to sit and chat.

All these years after my divorce, I’ve always wanted to tell you…”

"What happened in the past is in the past. There is nothing more to say between us." After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.

Gu Chenxin hurriedly grabbed her arm.

"Yuer, there hasn't been a single day in these years where I haven't thought about you. Will you come back to me?"

Ling Yue stopped and sneered:

"Let the past be the past. We can never go back."

Gu Chenxin's hands fell weakly, he lowered his head, his voice choked with sobs:

"Is it because of Yichen?"

Ling Yue looked at him, the indifference in her eyes gradually replaced by a hint of pity, but she soon regained her composure:

"Gu Chenxin, you have never really understood me." After saying that, she turned and left without looking back.

Gu Chenxin looked at her back, tears blurring his eyes.

He knew that he had completely lost Ling Yue.

At this moment, the cell phone suddenly rang. It was an emergency call from Li Chaoyang.

He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and answered the phone.

"Hey……"
