Chapter 808: Chapter 655: Love Is Crossing Mountains and Rivers, Love Is a Lifelong Obsession [3]

Feng Chengyue felt her heart shatter into countless pieces in an instant.

The sky that had just cleared suddenly seemed to blacken the entire world.

A tacit acknowledgment.

With a slight tremor in her arm, she looked around, and faced a woman who should be Qiu Mingyan’s mother’s age. She forced a faint smile: "I... was once Qiu Mingyan’s colleague."

Upon hearing this, both Qiu Mingyan’s mother and the girl who had just entered, holding Qiu Mingyan’s arm, collectively breathed a sigh of relief and smiled brightly.

"Oh, you’re Mingyan’s colleague? Then you must all be doctors, right?"

"Yes, doctors."

"Ah, doctors are great, they save lives, their hearts are the best. You must all be good people, it must have been tiring for you to come all the way here. Oh! Mingyan, why didn’t you say guests were coming earlier? The house is such a mess. By the way, what brings you here to see Mingyan?" Qiu Mingyan’s mother said cheerfully while looking for a stool and nervously tidying her hair, warmly greeting them.

What matter?

Feng Chengyue had no idea what matter she still had at that moment.

So, with a wry smile, she numbly took out a card from her pocket and handed it to Qiu Mingyan’s mother: "When he resigned, a card was left behind in the office, and the director asked us to bring it to him."

Instantly, how could Qiu Mingyan’s mother and the girl beside her be happier?

Feng Chengyue only knew that at that moment, she saw the extreme pain in Qiu Mingyan’s eyes.

Because that card — was the wedding gift he left for her before leaving, coupled with Feng Chengyue’s words that they were just colleagues.

In Mo Tong’s eyes, tears almost burst forth in an instant.

...

With heartache, the entire afternoon passed in silent confrontation between the two.

Even though Qiu Mingyan’s mother happily slaughtered a chicken in the evening and prepared several more dishes with great skill, it couldn’t ease the tension between the two of them.

During dinner, Qiu Mingyan kept glancing at Feng Chengyue.

Yet, Feng Chengyue didn’t want to look at Qiu Mingyan at all. Even when Qiu Mingyan noticed her just eating plain rice and paused, wanting to serve her a drumstick, Feng Chengyue avoided him by holding her bowl sideways.

Qiu Mingyan’s hand thus awkwardly stayed in mid-air.

Pain once again flowed between the two of them.

This atmosphere made the three accompanying members who were ordered to follow Miss Feng to find Doctor Qiu, fully understand the purpose behind this trip. Watching Miss Feng endure such a heart-wrenching scene, they realized that all the hardships of this trip might end up being in vain. They lowered their heads in embarrassment.

Qiu Mingyan’s mother, along with the girl staying over as "Qiu Mingyan’s fiancée" since the afternoon, looked at each other and shook their heads, not understanding what had happened at all.

Qiu Mingyan’s fiancée seemed to sense something as well, but after looking around, she just lowered her gaze without saying a word.

...

At night.

Because people generally don’t travel at night in the mountains, especially in Chenjiaying Village of Da Liang Mountain where the Qiu family lives, the terrain is steep. Going up and down the mountain requires crossing a swinging bridge over a rushing river, and the major road wraps around the mountain, taking many miles to reach a real road. Unless there’s a special circumstance, no one descends the mountain at night.

So Feng Chengyue and the three accompanying members stayed overnight.

However, staying doesn’t mean anything.

They were bound to leave upon waking up the next day.

Feng Chengyue didn’t want to deal with Qiu Mingyan.

It had been a day since she had cut into her heart, saying she was just Qiu Mingyan’s colleague, and since then she hadn’t spoken a word to him.

After all, he already had a fiancée, and he himself had accepted it. Besides returning the card and withdrawing his "5201314," what else could she do?

At night, after fetching water, washing her hands, face, and feet, and changing into clean clothes, she returned to the room.

Now, she was staying in the best room at the Qiu family. The rest, because there wasn’t enough space at Qiu Mingyan’s house, had moved to stay at someone else’s house.

This should be the new room specially built for their eldest son Qiu Mingyan, who was providing for the Qiu family. If it had been two months ago, Feng Chengyue would’ve been overjoyed knowing every bit of Qiu Mingyan’s growth experience.

She liked Mingyan, liked him so much, so much.

Even knowing the vast difference in their family backgrounds, it didn’t affect her integration into his life.

She was naturally curious about everything about him, and now, truly staying in his bed, she felt not a hint of joy.

No interest, no energy, no emotion.

Sitting in Jingyi, in the deep night amidst the lush greenness of the mountains, she listened to the silence and the chirping of insects, not knowing why she had to endure so much hardship, running away from home for two months searching for Qiu Mingyan, for what purpose.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, but she didn’t allow tears to form.

She took off her shoes, pulled back the blanket, preparing to sleep.

However, at that moment, the door was pushed open.

...

Turning around, seeing Qiu Mingyan at that moment, Feng Chengyue felt as if she was pulling a corpse from the depths of the sea, only to plunge a knife deeply into it again, and then throw it back into the sea.

Qiu Mingyan held a basin of water, and in the deep night, despite not seeing for two months, he no longer wore those "reasonably priced" clothes of the past, now donning a poorer quality white shirt.

However, because it was washed very clean, paired with his tall stature and healthy physique, he still looked like a man straight out of a comic book.

He was very handsome.

Qiu Mingyan’s essence was clean, that innate temperament never changed no matter what he wore.

On the contrary, compared to her battered state lately...

"Why did you come?" she asked.

Instantly, Qiu Mingyan’s heart was pierced.

Looking at Feng Chengyue, his eyes filled with pain, his skin hurt, even his bones felt the pain.

But that was his beloved Yu Yu, what could he say?

Lips quivered, trembled and trembled again; in just two months, he could no longer claim a position to kiss her, making his gaze at that moment more bitter than bittersweet.

Finally, he lowered his head, but only came in more determined, holding the basin.

"I saw you using the well water for washing; here in the mountains, it’s naturally colder at night, and the well water is even colder. I boiled some water, and it’s cooled to a suitable temperature. You should wash up again. It must have been a long trek up the mountain, soak your feet a little."

With that said, Qiu Mingyan placed the basin beside Feng Chengyue’s bed and, wetting a towel, offered it to her.

However, how could Feng Chengyue accept his concern?

Turning her face away, she replied, "No need, I’ve washed up already, it’s fine, didn’t feel cold at all."

Qiu Mingyan’s eyes were then even more painfully cut like a knife.

Feng Chengyue had never used cold water for washing before. Living a pampered life as a young lady allowed her to always brush her teeth with water at precisely 25 degrees even in the coldest weather; how could he not know?

And now, seeing Feng Chengyue nonchalantly fetching water from the well tonight, made him vaguely guess what kind of days she might have been enduring.

Listening to her indifferent tone now...

Heart agonizingly pierced, Qiu Mingyan said, "Yu Yu..."

"I’m not your Yu Yu! You have your new Yu Yu, Little Yu Yu, Ai Yue, I’m just your colleague! Doctor Qiu, who are you calling?" In an instant, Feng Chengyue snapped, and with tear-filled eyes raised, she threw a young missy tantrum at Qiu Mingyan for the first time.

Qiu Mingyan choked on pain, unable to respond with a single word, "..."
