159: C159 It Was like a Lifetime ago

C159 It Was like a Lifetime ago

Qiao Yumeng did not know when she had fallen asleep. She did not sleep well and had many dreams.

When she heard Fu Qianchen call her in a daze, she finally woke up.

Fu Qianchen leaned over slightly and looked at him. The lights in the cabin shone down from his hand. Qiao Yumeng could not see his face clearly at once.

When she tried hard to see his face clearly, she suddenly remembered a scene in her dream.

In the dream, they did not seem to be divorced, but they were not as distant as reality. In the dream, Fu Qianchen did everything he could to be good to her, and even said that he would accompany her until old age.

It was a ridiculous dream.

"We are here?" Qiao Yumeng looked at Fu Qianchen with a smile.

Fu Qianchen was stunned. This was the first time Qiao Yumeng smiled at him after she returned to Nancheng. She probably did not know how pretty she looked when she smiled.

"En, you're asleep." Even though there were countless strange emotions in his heart, Fu Qianchen still did not show anything different. He said indifferently, "Why did you come here all of a sudden?"

Qiao Yumeng knew that she could not hide it from Fu Qianchen. She told him about Cheng Nuo on the way down the plane.

After listening to her, Fu Qianchen nodded and did not say anything.

"What do you think of Tan Yue?" Qiao Yumeng asked.

"I don't know him very well." Fu Qianchen answered sincerely.

"To be honest, I used to like him quite a lot. I think he is a cold and warm-hearted person."

"Okay." Fu Qianchen nodded.

"But he actually made another girl pregnant? "I remember that girl was quite ordinary. She even had a boyfriend."

"Or maybe there's some hidden story behind it?" Fu Qianchen asked.

"Probably." Qiao Yumeng finished and did not know what to say.

She really could not interfere in Cheng Nuo and Tan Yue's matter.

"Are we going back to Nancheng tomorrow?" Fu Qianchen asked again.

"Of course." Qiao Yumeng thought Fu Qianchen would mention that she wanted to get engaged to Lu Chen, but he did not. Fu Qianchen just nodded to indicate that he knew, so he did not ask anything else.

However, Fu Qianchen would leave Nancheng with her and come to this remote and unfamiliar city. This had already exceeded Qiao Yumeng's understanding of Fu Qianchen.

He was actually quite cold. If things had nothing to do with him, he would usually choose to ignore them.

She wanted to ask why Fu Qianchen had come with her, but she was afraid that the answer would disappoint her, or that the answer would be the same as what she thought.

Even though she had been disappointed countless times by Fu Qianchen, her heart still ached.

But if the answer was the same as she had guessed, or if Fu Qianchen was worried about her, or fell in love with her, how would she answer?

Therefore, there were some things that she shouldn't ask.

The address that Cheng Nuo sent was actually quite far from the city. It was a small county town. When they got there overnight by taxi, the sky was gradually getting brighter.

When they got out of the car, Qiao Yumeng shivered from the cold.

"I have clothes here." He opened his suitcase and found a coat to put on Qiao Yumeng.

The moment the coat was draped over her body, Qiao Yumeng subconsciously looked around. When she saw the mottled walls and the unfamiliar street scene, she realized that this was not Nancheng.0

This small county town was very far from Nancheng. There shouldn't be anyone she knew.

After confirming this point, Qiao Yumeng allowed herself to accept Fu Qianchen's good intentions.

Along the way, Qiao Yumeng and Fu Qianchen walked to a small alley.

That alley was especially dilapidated. There was sewage everywhere and unknown weeds growing.

The deeper they went, the darker it became. It was as if the light could not reach this place.

"Be careful!" Fu Qianchen reminded Qiao Yumeng from behind. Qiao Yumeng was stunned for a moment and then realized that she almost stepped on the excrement of animals and humans.

She quickly moved her feet and looked at the address on her phone. After confirming that she had walked the wrong way, she continued to walk in.

The alley was long and deep. The deeper she went, the more desolate it became. Only the voices that occasionally came out proved that there were people living here.

When she turned another corner, Qiao Yumeng almost stepped into the sewage ditch. After she hurriedly avoided it, she looked up and saw a woman sitting at the open door opposite her.

The woman sat on the moldy door and was in a daze. She did not even see Qiao Yumeng appear.

"Cheng Nuo..." Qiao Yumeng looked at her in a daze.

How long has Cheng Nuo been away from Nancheng? It had only been two months.

However, these two months were like ten years. The attending physician who had once entered the city hospital in high spirits had become the most inconspicuous middle-aged woman in the small county.

She wore an old rose-red sweater that obviously did not fit her, a pair of washed white jeans, and a pair of yellow hair slippers.

When she heard Qiao Yumeng's voice, she finally came back to her senses.

When she saw Qiao Yumeng, she subconsciously felt embarrassed. Her eyes were wandering around. After a long while, she forced herself to cough and looked over, "You're here? So fast."

She had probably sat at the door for an entire night without saying anything. Her voice was especially hoarse.

"Okay." Qiao Yumeng nodded and walked forward. She directly draped her coat over Cheng Nuo, "Have you always been sitting here waiting for me?"

"No, I only came here after I woke up." Cheng Nuo said and saw Fu Qianchen walking out from the corner.

Qiao Yumeng looked at Cheng Nuo's wet hair and did not expose her. Instead, she explained, "I met him at the airport. He said he was fine, so he came with me."

"I see." Cheng Nuo nodded.

If she had been like this before, she would definitely tease Qiao Yumeng and ask if she still had Fu Qianchen in her heart. But now, she couldn't even manage herself well. How could she have the spare time to ask these questions?

"Why would she live here?" Qiao Yumeng could not believe how Cheng Nuo found such a place. If she did not follow the number of the door, Qiao Yumeng felt that she would have lost her way a long time ago.

"I... I was taken in by the granny who lived here." Cheng Nuo said as she raised her hand to wipe away a handful of nonexistent tears and led Qiao Yumeng and Fu Qianchen in.

The wooden door had not been moved for a long time. Qiao Yumeng reached out her hand to push it and the door made an obscure squeaking sound. There was a small yard inside the door. It was very clean but because of the humidity, one could smell the musty smell as soon as they entered.

After taking a stool for Qiao Yumeng and Fu Qianchen to sit down, Cheng Nuo frowned and said, "I really fell this time. That black agent who lied to me, I must sue him! Until he gets out of jail!"

"Okay, I support you." Qiao Yumeng nodded and subconsciously looked at Fu Qianchen.

He was a person who had been high and mighty since he was born. It should be uncomfortable for him to stay in such a dilapidated place, right?
