He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

When Wei Yinuo returned to the living room, Fu Ya saw the roses she was holding and teased her with a smile, "Did that kid Aning give them to you?"

Wei Yinuo nodded somewhat shyly.

"Ah."

"This kid has a heart."

"Ah."

"Go and rest. We'll head to the airport first thing tomorrow morning."

"Okay, goodnight, Mom."

That night, Wei Yinuo lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

She reached out and turned on the bedroom nightlight to find her phone.

When I opened my phone, I saw 13 missed calls.

Wei Yinuo was somewhat surprised.

Xu Ning made so many phone calls to herself.

She clicked on it and was stunned to see that it was all texted by Zhou Yan.

I started calling myself around 7:00, and it's 9:00 now.

As Wei Yinuo hesitated about whether to reply, her phone suddenly rang.

The cell phone ringing sounded unusually jarring in the quiet bedroom.

She hurriedly hung up her phone, and looking at the constantly flashing caller ID, Wei Yinuo hesitated whether to answer.

That solves the problem. What should I say?

There seemed to be nothing between them.

All she wants now is to forget those unbearable memories and pain, and live a good life.

However, Zhou Yan became a witness to her unbearable suffering. Whenever she saw Zhou Yan, she would think of the scenes that happened that day.

Thinking of this, Wei Yinuo decisively hung up the phone.

Just then, Xu Ning sent over photos of fireworks.

Wei Yinuo saved nine photos and then posted them on her WeChat Moments, tagging Xu Ning in the comments.

Let's watch fireworks together next time, shall we? (^_-)

She thought that without her saying anything, Zhou Yan should understand when he saw this post on his WeChat Moments that there was no possibility between them anymore.

Sure enough, Zhou Yan didn't call her again after that.

There was no news even on the way to the airport.

Wei Yinuo felt somewhat annoyed throughout the journey.

Sitting beside her, Fu Ya reached out and took her hand, asking softly, "Baby, what's wrong? You don't seem very happy?"

Wei Yinuo shook her head.

Fu Ya continued, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"I might be having trouble sleeping because I'm thinking about leaving."

"I'll catch up on some sleep on the plane later."

Wei Yinuo nodded slightly, then, as if remembering something, asked, "By the way, is Uncle coming to see us off?"

"They're coming; they've already set off."

Wei Yinuo pouted: "Actually, there's no need to give it."

"Why wouldn't it be necessary? Don't you want your uncle to take you?"

Wei Yinuo lowered her head and said softly, "I just don't know how to face parting."

Fu Ya reached out and rubbed her head.

After being discharged from the hospital, Wei Yinuo's hair was cut again, and it became a very short bob.

Fu Ya gently comforted her, "It's not a farewell. If you want to come back, Mom will come back with you."

"it is good."

Upon arriving at the airport, Wei Yinuo saw Song Zhi from the car.

"Mom, Auntie."

She pointed out the window.

After Fu Ya asked the driver to pull over, the mother and daughter got out of the car.

"Little aunt."

Wei Yinuo ran towards Song Zhixiao: "Auntie, when did you arrive?"

"Just arrived."

Wei Yinuo looked around but didn't see her uncle.

"Where's my uncle?"

"He answered the phone. What time is your flight?"

"It's 10 o'clock, they're about to start checking tickets."

After saying that, he reached out and hugged Song Zhi tightly: "Auntie, I really don't want to leave you."

"Me too."

Wei Yinuo let go of her, her eyes crinkling with a smile: "You can come visit me with my uncle then."

Song Zhi nodded.

Fu Lu walked over, put his arm around Song Zhi's shoulder, and looked at Wei Yinuo: "Have you packed everything?"

"All right."

"Go in, they'll check your tickets soon."

Wei Yinuo nodded, then looked at Fu Lu hesitantly: "Uncle, can I hug you?"

Fu Lu was stunned for a moment, then let go of Song Zhi, reached out and hugged Wei Yinuo tightly, whispering in her ear: "Don't be willful over there, listen to your mother, and video chat if you miss us."

"Ok, I know."

Seeing this, Fu Ya felt a lump in her throat and said, "Ninth Brother, I'm leaving the company and the family to you."

Fu Lu released Wei Yinuo, looked at Fu Ya who was standing to the side, walked over and gently hugged her.

"Big sister, have a safe journey."

Song Zhi also stepped forward and hugged Fu Ya.

The two stood outside the ticket gate, watching the mother and daughter go through the ticket check.

Wei Yinuo kept turning back to look at him, but she didn't see him. She felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.

She should have confessed her feelings properly last night.

In the waiting area, Fu Ya looked at her listless expression and couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Honey, are you reluctant to leave your aunt?"

Wei Yinuo shook her head: "No."

"what is that?"

Wei Yinuo remained silent.

Fu Ya continued, "Is it because Xu Ning didn't come to see you off?"

"No, I told him he didn't need to come and see me off."

"why?"

Wei Yinuo shook her head again.

Fu Ya reached out and hugged the person, gently patting her back without saying a word.

Wei Yinuo leaned against her elderly mother's chest, her nose feeling a little sore: "Mom, I...I want to go to the bathroom."

"Want me to come with you?"

Wei Yinuo shook her head: "No need, I can do it myself."

"Go on, Mom will be waiting for you here."

Wei Yinuo nodded slowly and walked towards the restroom.

After entering the cubicle, she gently closed the door, took out her phone from her pocket, and opened her contacts.

Wei Yinuo stared at the missed call from Zhou Yan last night, a complex emotion welling up inside her.

She hesitated for a long time, her fingers hovering over the screen, before finally deciding to dial the number.

Time slipped away second by second as we waited, each second feeling as if it were stretched out infinitely.

Wei Yinuo gripped her phone tightly, her heart pounding uncontrollably.

However, as time went by, the call was not answered, and Wei Yinuo's heart sank.

Is it because I didn't answer his call last night that he got angry?

Just as Wei Yinuo's thoughts were becoming increasingly chaotic, the phone call suddenly went through.

"Hello."

A slightly hoarse female voice came through the phone, carrying a hint of laziness and weariness, clearly indicating that she had just woken up.

Wei Yinuo's hand gripping the phone tightened suddenly, and her mind went completely blank for a moment, as if it had been emptied out.

female?

Why was a woman answering the phone?

And at this particular time?

A flood of questions welled up in Wei Yinuo's mind, and though her lips parted slightly, she found herself at a loss for words.

Just as she was hesitating whether to speak, the voices from the other side came again.

"Honey, is that your phone?"

"Whose is it?"

Wei Yinuo heard Zhou Yan's voice.

"I don't know, you didn't add a note."

The next second, Zhou Yan's voice came through: "Hey, Yinuo."

The familiar voice made Wei Yinuo's heart race instantly, and her hands trembled slightly. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

Wei Yinuo took a deep breath and tried to keep her voice calm: "Uncle Zhou."

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?"

Zhou Yan's voice sounded a little hoarse, similar to the woman's voice from before.

So what did they do last night?
