The mountain was filled with howling wind, and Xu Yanqing's face was numb from the cold.
She was about to turn around, but she couldn't escape, so she stood firm in place.
She watched Yu Zhi's figure walking towards her. The shadow passed over the fallen leaves on the ground and folded at Xu Yanqing's feet.
She clenched her palms tightly and walked towards the taxi before he could get closer.
Yu Zhi grabbed her arm and pulled her with such force that Xu Yanqing lost her balance and bumped into him.
She pretended to be calm, but when she looked up at him, her face was full of anger.
"What are you doing?"
So confident and fierce.
Yu Zhi's hand clenched tighter and tighter. Before he could speak, Xu Yanqing scolded him again, "Crazy."
"You came back without even saying hello?"
Xu Yanqing didn't expect him to be so fast. After all, Nanhuai City was Yu Zhi's territory.
Since Zongzhang was willing to let her out, he knew that it was over between her and Yu Zhi.
"Why should I say hello to you? Who are you?" Xu Yanqing finished speaking. Pain shot through her arm, and a stubborn sneer hit her head.
"Which wild man did you come here with? You have lived a good life these past few years."
Xu Yan lowered his eyes, filled with hidden sadness.
How is she doing? I'm afraid he doesn't even know what life is worse than death, right?
Xu Yanqing wanted to break away, but his persistence was too strong. After three years of seeing each other again, it turned out that what he said about letting go was just for himself.
"Did you admit the wrong person?"
Xu Yanqing clasped her fingers and looked panicked, "Sir, please don't do this."
The look in her eyes was not only alienated, but also strange, as if they didn't know each other at all.
"Isn't your name Xu Yanqing?"
"I am, but I don't know you."
Yu Zhi laughed softly, and the sound was squeezed out of his chest, tearing his anger out together.
He raised his hand and pointed to the cemetery, "Then do you remember who is buried there?"
Xu Yanqing felt a pain in her heart. He would definitely not know that she had already met Wang Min, let alone that she knew that An An was forced to death.
Xu Yanqing raised her eyes little by little and met him without fear.
"My father and my sister are buried inside. Does this have anything to do with you?"
Yu Zhi was actually stunned by the question. In the past three years, he had visited here countless times, otherwise the grass in front of their graves would have been as tall as one person's.
But she asked him, does this have anything to do with him?
"Then go to your father's grave and ask if you have anything to do with me!"
Yu Zhi grabbed her hand and dragged her inside, and Xu Yanqing shouted for help.
But no one at the scene could stop him. Jiang Huai walked to the taxi, knocked on the window, and stuffed a few red banknotes into it.
"You go first."
The driver glanced at him, who dared to offend him? He didn't even count the money and ran away as soon as he stepped on the accelerator.
Yu Zhi walked very fast and went up the steps again. Xu Yanqing failed to keep up and fell at his feet.
His slender legs stopped, and his hand was still holding Xu Yanqing.
He stared down at her face, while she held her other hand on the rough ground, refusing to exert any more force, waiting for her to get up on her own.
"I don't know where I offended you. You seem to know me very well. Who are you to me?"
Xu Yan was eager to hear his answer.
When An An called him brother-in-law, he agreed quickly, but what did she do behind his back?
Xu Yanqing gritted his teeth, trying to hide the emotions in his eyes.
"You should keep pretending," Yu Zhi came closer to her, almost touching her face. "Even if you want to act, you should go back and practice your acting skills."
With the necklace hanging around Xu Yanqing's neck, it is very likely that Zong Zhang is monitoring the conversation between the two.
"I don't understand what you're talking about."
Yu Zhi bent down and reached out to grab the hem of her skirt to lift it up. Xu Yanqing was so frightened that she jumped away.
"you--"
This scene was so weird, he actually touched her here.
She felt the coldness soaking into her calves. Xu Yanqing glared at him angrily. Seeing her pretending to be like this, Yu Zhi found it funny.
"Don't you recognize me? I'll help you recall your memories."
Xu Yanqing tried really hard to pretend, imagining how she would react if Yu Zhi was a complete stranger.
"Rogue." She scolded him angrily.
After the curve of Yu Zhi's mouth widened, his eyes became colder, "If you flip up your skirt, you are a gangster? If I don't do something substantial and bad, will I be sorry for your title of gangster?"
Xu Yanqing stepped back, missed the mark, stumbled, and hit a tombstone.
She quickly took her hand back.
Xu Yanqing felt that she had offended someone, so she hurriedly paid her respects.
Yu Zhi stood on the steps and when he cast his gaze down, he saw her bending down.
The two shoulder blades on the back are particularly prominent, as if there is no flesh visible on the entire back...
Xu Yanqing turned around sharply, "Can I leave?"
"Let's go, where?"
"Is it possible that I have to sleep here at night?"
Xu Yanqing stepped onto the steps, and a tall and stubborn figure stood in front of her. The pressure made her feel unsteady and she wanted to run away.
But she shouldn't have such a reaction in front of a 'stranger'.
"Don't follow me, or I'll call the police and arrest you."
Xu Yanqing took two steps out and heard Yu Zhi ask from behind her, "Call the police? Is your phone number still the same?"
"I……"
Xu Yanqing was almost tricked by him, "Don't do this with me. I won't tell you my number. Your way of picking up conversations is too old-fashioned."
A sneer appeared on Yu Zhi's lips, but Xu Yanqing followed him without hearing the footsteps behind him.
She thought she could escape this disaster.
Xu Yanqing almost ran out of the cemetery gate. As soon as Jiang Huai saw her, he greeted her expressionlessly, "Miss Xu."
He answered the phone and his eyes quickly fell on Xu Yanqing.
"You said Mr. Zong is coming? That's not easy. Stop him. There are ghosts on the mountainside, so don't let him make this trip."
Soon, Zongzhang's car was stopped on the road. Even if he turned around and tried to take another road, it was useless. People blocked him in front and behind him.
Zong Zhang had a cold face. It seemed that Yu Zhi was not as uncaring as he showed. He also made others think that he had given up on Xu Yanqing long ago.
But she just showed up today, and he was already targeting her.
Xu Yanqing was stopped by Jiang Huai and refused to let her go.
There were footsteps behind him, walking over lightly.
When Yu Zhi passed by Xu Yanqing, he paused and said, "Jiang Huai, please go back and talk about old times, Miss Xu."
"yes."
Xu Yanqing frowned, "I won't go!"
He already has a woman and a child, so why bother with her?
Xu Yanqing looked at Yu Zhi now as if she were looking at a stone blocking the way. She didn't want Zong Zhang to notice any flaws. She still had a lot of things to do.
But how could Yu Zhi let her go like this, "It's not up to you."
