After being reborn, the aloof female CEO became a paranoid.

Hearing her daughter's words, Xu's mother looked bewildered and could only try her best to comfort her: "Things have come to this, you still have to look forward. I think Zhou Yu also hopes that you can do the same."

Xu Xinran shook her head violently, her eyes filled with obsession.

"I won't believe he's dead until we find his body!"

Although Xu Xinran stopped insisting on being discharged from the hospital, she only stayed there for one day before hurriedly returning to the villa.

She hasn't given up looking for Zhou Yu, and she knows in her heart that without a healthy body, she has even less chance of waiting for him to return.

She pushed open Zhou Yu's door. His computer was on the desk, the screen still lit, displaying an unfinished 3D character model.

She recalled her past life, when Zhou Yu often designed games in his room, while she rarely came home.

Every time he came home, he would excitedly show her his game ideas, nervously observing her reaction, afraid that she would get impatient.

If she's in a good mood, he'll talk at length about his ideas and insights.

But on one occasion, she ruthlessly rejected one of his game ideas. Later, she learned that he had sold the game to help the Xu family overcome their difficulties, on the condition that the other party would cooperate with the Xu family...

In her past life, when Zhou Yu was alive, she never paid any attention to him, treating him as an insignificant guest.

If it weren't for that misunderstanding, they might have lived like that for the rest of their lives.

Perhaps even Heaven couldn't bear to see Zhou Yu suffer her indifference any longer. Later, he died, and only then did she learn the truth; by then, he had already vanished without a trace.

She was filled with remorse, but it was too late to undo the damage. Filled with guilt and regret, she died in despair.

Without her realizing it, his preferences, habits, and even everything about him had been subtly etched into her subconscious...

She pulled herself out of her reverie and her gaze returned to the computer screen.

“Zhou Yu…”

Xu Xinran gently stroked the keyboard and mouse that Zhou Yu had used, as if she could still feel his presence. She leaned on the table and slowly closed her eyes.

"I will not let anyone take you away from me."

She firmly believed he was not dead and that she would find him...

The next day, Xu Xinran walked into the company with light dark circles under her eyes and looked exhausted.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Qi was very worried. "You...why don't you rest for a few more days?"

Xu Xinran shook her head firmly.

"No need, Jiang Qi. I can't give up my work at the group, but I won't give up on finding Zhou Yu either."

She knew she had responsibilities to bear, but she also knew she couldn't live without Zhou Yu.

……

News of Zhou Yu's accident spread quickly within the group.

When Mu Tianze heard this, his first reaction was disbelief. But as soon as he stepped into the office, he heard several employees whispering among themselves.

"Zhou Yu is really unlucky. He was already engaged to President Xu, and all that was left was the wedding ceremony and marriage certificate, but this happened."

"That's right. I heard that the police have already stopped the search and rescue operation, and the Zhou family has accepted this fact."

"It's fate, you can't blame anyone else."

Zhou Ze listened from the side, secretly pleased with himself.

I was startled by Xu Xinran's reaction at the hospital yesterday, but now it seems that it was just that she couldn't accept it for the time being.

Over time, the name Zhou Yu will probably be erased from her mind.

As for his unfortunate older brother, Zhou Ze could only silently wish him a safe journey.

……

In a small town fifty kilometers away from Yuncheng, in a dilapidated hospital, Zhou Yu slowly opened his eyes.

What met his eyes was a blinding white, and his head throbbed with pain, as if countless fragments were churning in his mind.

Just then, a childish voice rang in my ears.

"Big brother, you're finally awake! I'll go get Dad and the doctor right away!"

Before Zhou Yu could react, a little girl with pigtails ran out like a gust of wind.

A moment later, the doctor and Shen Shuqing brought the little girl in.

The doctor performed a brief examination on Zhou Yu and then said, "The patient has woken up and is gradually recovering. He should rest and recuperate properly."

"Thank you, doctor," Zhou Yu replied in a hoarse voice.

He was still somewhat dazed, after all, he had been in utter despair when he fell into the water. He never expected to be so lucky as to survive.

Seeing Zhou Yu's blank expression, Shen Shuqing asked softly, "Young man, do you still feel unwell anywhere?"

Zhou Yu shook his head slightly, his gaze falling on Shen Shuqing. Although he didn't know this man, for some reason, he felt an unusual sense of familiarity with him.

Although he didn't recognize him, Zhou Yu felt a sense of familiarity upon seeing him.

"Did you save me?" Zhou Yu asked gratefully.

Shen Shuqing smiled and nodded, then recounted in detail how she found Zhou Yu and took him to the hospital.

“When I was playing with my child by the river, I saw you lying unconscious on the bank, so I rushed you to the hospital.”

"Thank you so much..." Zhou Yu said gratefully, knowing full well that his life was given to him by the father and daughter in front of him.

"Big brother, you're welcome!"

The little girl patted her chest, looking like a little adult.

"My dad always teaches me to be helpful. Besides, helping such a handsome older brother is my duty!"

Zhou Yu was touched by the little girl's innocence, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

He looked at Shen Shuqing, his eyes filled with gratitude.

"My name is Shen Shuqing, and this is my..." Before Shen Shuqing could finish speaking, the little girl interrupted him.

"I am my father's daughter, my name is Shen Miaomiao!" the little girl introduced herself with a proud look on her face.

Shen Shuqing affectionately touched his daughter's little face, and this heartwarming scene filled Zhou Yu's heart with warmth.

He thought of the child Xu Xinran had aborted in his past life. If that child were still alive, he would probably be just as lively and adorable.

At that moment, Shen Miaomiao turned on the television in the ward, and a news report happened to catch the attention of the three of them.

According to the latest reports, Zhou Yu, the fiancé of the president of the Xu Group, was involved in a car accident that plunged into the river more than half a month ago, and his whereabouts and fate remain unknown...

Zhou Yu's pupils suddenly contracted, half a crescent...

Has he been missing for that long?
