Chapter 134 Return to the Capital
Ye Wanqing and Zhao Jinyu were strolling along the shore of Moon Bay when this scene was inadvertently captured by a well-known street photographer.
The photographer enjoys a high reputation on social media for his unique perspective and delicate emotional capture, and his number of followers has long exceeded 300,000.
That day, the afterglow of the setting sun and the rain intertwined, casting a layer of dreamy colors on the two of them.
Ye Wanqing's clothes swayed gently in the wind, while Zhao Jinyu was wearing simple casual clothes. The two walked side by side, sharing this tranquility and beauty.
The photographer skillfully captured this scene, especially the gentleness of Ye Wanqing as she lowered her head to smell the fragrance of the flowers, and the tender look in Zhao Jinyu's eyes as he turned his head to gaze at her, as if the whole world had stopped.
Once this set of photos was released, it quickly caused a sensation on the Internet.
Ye Wanqing's slightly melancholic temperament and Zhao Jinyu's affectionate gaze aroused the romantic feelings deep in the hearts of countless netizens. For a time, stories about the two were woven into a variety of stories and circulated widely.
The speed at which the photo spread was beyond imagination. In just half a day, it reached Qin Zhuyu.
Qin Zhuyu looked at the two people on the screen, feeling mixed emotions.
She had to admit that even in this casual street shot, Ye Wanqing was still heart-warmingly beautiful, and her indifference and composure seemed to be an innate temperament.
As for Zhao Jinyu, his eyes revealed his admiration for Ye Wanqing.
Ever since the controversy between Ye Wanqing and her ex-husband Lin Xuan subsided, she seemed to have completely disappeared from Beijing's social circles. Except for being occasionally photographed being picked up and dropped off at the Lin family's house by Lin Xuan a few years ago, she has not made any public appearances since then.
This time, appearing on the Internet with Zhao Jinyu undoubtedly pushed her to the forefront again.
People began to speculate whether there was an unusual relationship between Ye Wanqing and Zhao Jinyu.
After all, not only did the two start working together shortly after their divorce, but they now appear in the same frame frequently, which inevitably makes people imagine.
Qin Zhuyu secretly sighed in her heart that Ye Wanqing could always attract everyone's attention in her unique way.
And Zhao Jinyu, a man who has always kept a low profile and remained mysterious, seems to have found his place in Ye Wanqing's world.
At the same time, Su Zimo and Jiang Yubo were still searching for Ye Wanqing.
The messages they sent her fell on deaf ears and there was no response.
It was not until this set of photos appeared that they finally learned about her current situation.
Faced with Su Zimo's anxious inquiries, Ye Wanqing just stared at the phone screen quietly and finally chose to remain silent.
She knew that the emotional entanglement between her and Su Zimo could not be explained in a few words.
Su Zimo is Su Junyan's younger brother, and this relationship makes it difficult for her to make a decision easily.
All she can do is give each other enough space and time and let everything take its course.
After Su Zimo made several fruitless calls, he finally understood Ye Wanqing's decision.
He leaned weakly against the back of the chair, staring blankly ahead.
Li Meng walked into the office and saw Su Zimo's appearance, and sighed in her heart.
She patted Su Zimo's shoulder gently and handed him an interview manuscript: "This is tomorrow's arrangement, please prepare it first."
Su Zimo took the manuscript, but had no intention of reading it.
He looked up at Li Meng, his eyes full of pleading: "Sister Meng, can you help me call Wanqing? I want to know where she is and whether she is doing well."
Li Meng looked at him with mixed feelings.
She knew that the story between Ye Wanqing and Su Zimo was much more complicated than it seemed.
But she also understood that some things took time to digest.
So, she gently comforted him, "Don't worry, she will handle her own affairs. The most important thing for you now is to do your job well and don't let these things affect you."
Li Meng's words were like a spring breeze, gentle yet with a barely perceptible chill:
"Su Zimo, the friendship between you and Wanqing is deeper than anyone else's.
You should understand her personality better than anyone else. If she doesn't answer the phone, maybe she wants you to give her some space. Why bother disturbing her peace?
Su Zimo lowered his head, his hands resting weakly on his knees, his voice trembling slightly. "I just want to know if she's okay and happy now."
There was an indescribable feeling in his heart, which was his deep longing for her.
"I spoke to Wanqing on the phone a few years ago. Her voice was full of calmness. You don't need to worry too much."
Li Meng's words were soothing. "As for your feelings for her, as a bystander, I can't say much. But if you still want to maintain the brother-sister relationship between you and Wanqing..."
She paused slightly, her eyes full of meaning: "Su Zimo, perhaps, hiding this feeling deep in your heart is the best choice."
Su Zimo fell into silence, his eyes staring at the ceiling empty, his thoughts drifting back to the bits and pieces of those years.
Since his brother passed away, he has been like a lost deer. It was Ye Wanqing who appeared in his life like a lighthouse, illuminating his way forward with her warm and firm light.
From his youthful high school days to his college years, and now to the present day, she has always been by his side.
He knew very well that she treated him like her own brother. If it weren't for her brother, they might just be two parallel lines that would never intersect.
However, there are no ifs in life, only results.
In those confused days of youth, she was like a ray of gentle light that illuminated his world. He relied on her, trusted her, and unknowingly developed a deep attachment and love for her.
He understood all of this, but was unwilling to face it, let alone accept it.
Ye Wanqing, the woman who always protects him from wind and rain, can give everything for him without hesitation, but can also take back all her tenderness and care in an instant.
Once she decided to let go, he would no longer be able to touch her world.
She was like a kite flying high in the sky, and he was just the string that she held tightly in her hand.
Whether he flew high or low, far or near, it was all up to her to decide. If she no longer needed him, she only needed to let go of him, and he would float away like a kite with a broken string.
After a long time, he finally squeezed out a sentence with difficulty: "Well, I understand."
He did understand, but he still felt unwilling.
Compared with Jiang Yubo, Su Zimo is undoubtedly lucky.
At least, he can still remain in Ye Wanqing's address book, but Jiang Yubo has been completely erased from Ye Wanqing's life since she left, without even a trace left.
Before the photos of Ye Wanqing and Zhao Jinyu became popular, Jiang Yubo didn't even know if she was still in this world.
At this moment, Ye Wanqing's door was slightly ajar. Zhao Jinyu stood outside, tapping lightly with his fingers, making a crisp sound. After waiting for a moment, he pushed the door open and walked in.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Ye Wanqing sitting on the sofa with a packed suitcase beside her. Obviously, she was ready to leave.
Ye Wanqing planned to return to the capital before Qingming Festival, and Zhao Jinyu also happened to have a trip to the capital, so the two agreed to set off together.
Only when she heard Zhao Jinyu's voice did Ye Wanqing come back to her senses from her thoughts.
She picked up the phone on the table, stood up and put the cushions on the sofa back in place: "We're done packing, we can go."
Zhao Jinyu smiled lightly and reached out to pick up her suitcase: "Then let's go."
Ye Wanqing did not refuse his kindness, and a gentle smile appeared on her face: "Thank you, Brother Jinyu."
Zhao Jinyu turned around and glanced at her, his eyes tinged with a hint of teasing: "You're already being polite to me before we even get back to the capital?"
Ye Wanqing raised the corners of her lips slightly: "This is not politeness, it's courtesy."
"What a polite and nice girl." Zhao Jinyu teased, striding ahead with a suitcase in hand.
