Chapter 2039: Becoming Passersby to Each Other

As the words fell, Yi Xiang handed a set of keys to Wei Yangyang.

"This is..."

"The villa keys; I'm handing them all over to you."

"You're not keeping one for yourself?"

Yi Xiang shook his head gently and said, "I won't be coming back again. It's better if you keep these keys."

"Since you're not coming back... why not sell the villa?"

"No, if I sell it, the buyer might destroy the interior decor. That was the result of our hard work together; I can't bear for anyone else to touch it."

Yi Xiang harbored a little selfishness.

He wanted this place to continue existing.

Looking back in the future, there would always be a corner in this world that held his unrequited feelings.

After hearing Yi Xiang's explanation, Wei Yangyang did not say anything more.

Yi Xiang, however, gathered his courage and made a request: "Before we part, can I give you a hug?"

Wei Yangyang refused: "No, my boyfriend will get jealous."

"I'm about to leave, and he's still jealous?"

"That guy doesn't care about such things."

"Hey, he's so nitpicky, only you could put up with him!"

Yi Xiang grumbled gloomily.

Wei Yangyang smiled and then said, "Safe travels."

Although this was a blessing, it was... a bit ill-timed, wasn't it?

Yi Xiang reminded her helplessly: "Wei Yangyang, I haven't left yet."

"The day you leave, I likely won't go to the airport to see you off, so I'm wishing you well in advance."

Wei Yangyang's explanation made Yi Xiang feel a bitter ache inside.

But he was already used to this bitterness.

Smiling, Yi Xiang acted as if nothing was wrong and said, "I've received your early well-wishes; now, say something appropriate for the moment."

"Hmm... then I wish you a bright future."

"You have to add 'and a happy, fulfilling life'."

"Fine, I wish you a happy and fulfilling life."

Wei Yangyang's smile was calm and gentle; like this, she seemed to be indulging a child asking for candy.

Yi Xiang took a deep look at Wei Yangyang, then, while she wasn't paying attention, gave her a firm hug.

Before Wei Yangyang could react, Yi Xiang released her again.

Then, he said with a hint of triumph: "It's useless for Li Xingyan to be mad; I got to hug you!"

This kid...

Wei Yangyang looked helpless.

Then, amidst her smile, Yi Xiang waved at her, turned, and left.

Yi Xiang's figure gradually disappeared from Wei Yangyang's sight.

They had both become passersby in each other's lives...

And things happened just as Wei Yangyang had said.

When Yi Xiang left the city, she did not appear.

In the end, Wei Yangyang learned the news from the news.

Her colleagues were sighing: if someone so outstanding dared to give up all their achievements and start from zero, shouldn't they, as mere laborers, work even harder?

However...

Better to work hard after being full.

After all, it was already noon.

The colleagues quickly changed the subject.

A colleague beside Wei Yangyang even asked her: "Are you eating with your boyfriend this noon?"

When Li Xingyan wasn't busy, the two of them would eat together.

But today, Li Xingyan was very busy.

Wei Yangyang said: "I brought lunch today."

"Did your mother-in-law prepare it for you?"

"Mm."

"Sigh, I'm so envious that you have a mother who can cook; unlike my mom, who only makes culinary disasters."

The colleague's words resonated with others.

Wei Yangyang didn't chime in, but instead stood up, preparing to get a glass of water.

But just as she stood up, a wave of dizziness struck, making her body sway.

Fortunately, someone caught her arm, preventing her from falling.

The other person looked at Wei Yangyang's face with concern and asked: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, just a bit dizzy."

"Is it low blood sugar? Why not eat a piece of candy first?"

Wei Yangyang rubbed her temples and then smiled at the person: "It's fine, I'm much better now."

"But you don't look good; you'd better find time for a check-up. By the way, tomorrow is the company's collective physical exam, you should get a good check-up then."

Wei Yangyang nodded lightly, remembering what the other person had said.

However, Wei Yangyang felt that it was not necessarily the case that there was something wrong with her body.

Perhaps, she was simply hungry and needed to replenish her energy.

Thinking this, Wei Yangyang decided to eat first.

When Wei Yangyang opened the lid of her lunch box, exclamations of surprise rang out around her as usual: "Auntie's culinary skills are still as excellent as ever!"

Everyone's praise came from the bottom of their hearts.

That fragrant scent made everyone who smelled it salivate.

But...

Wei Yangyang's expression became even uglier.

She hurriedly closed the lunch box lid.

Her movements were even a bit flustered.

Her colleagues looked at Wei Yangyang in confusion.

And Wei Yangyang's explanation was: "I suddenly lost my appetite, I'm going outside for a walk."

"Are you really okay going for a walk on an empty stomach?"

"It's fine."

Wei Yangyang left in a hurry.

Only when she could no longer smell that scent of pan-fried hairtail did the nausea in her chest slowly subside.

In the past, Wei Yangyang loved the pan-fried hairtail her mother made the most.

Today, what was going on?

Wei Yangyang was completely bewildered.

She was still near the company, walking around aimlessly.

When she stopped, she happened to be in front of a shop she often frequented.

The sandwiches here were delicious and generous in portion.

If Wei Yangyang went in to order, she would definitely order a tuna sandwich.

But this time...

Wei Yangyang ordered a club sandwich directly.

On her way out, she even bought a box of cherry tomatoes.

Wei Yangyang carried the food, sat on a nearby bench, and finished all the food in no time.

When Wei Yangyang was rubbing her belly in satisfaction, she realized...

The things she bought today were things she wouldn't have even looked at before.

In this instant, Wei Yangyang felt uneasy because of her own changes.

She even searched online for the reasons why a person's taste might suddenly change.

And one of the reasons made Wei Yangyang's eyes widen directly.

Could it be, could it be...

As soon as this possibility popped into Wei Yangyang's mind, she immediately muttered to herself: "It can't be, it wouldn't be such a coincidence."

She brainwashed herself over and over again.

Yet, after her physical examination the next day, she secretly did a blood test for herself.

When she received the results...

Wei Yangyang sat blankly in a deserted corner.

She read the test report over and over again.

Finally, with trembling fingers, she called Jiang Motian.

Jiang Motian's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone: "Woman, why did you think of calling me? Did you miss me?"

Responding to Jiang Motian was Wei Yangyang's flustered and trembling voice: "Tiantian, what do I do, what should I do!?"

Her voice made Jiang Motian freeze.

The next second, Jiang Motian put away her playful expression, frowned, and asked: "Don't panic, tell me slowly, what happened?"

"I'm at the Hospital, I didn't expect it to be this result... I feel like my life is going to be ruined!!"

At the Hospital?

In this very instant, many terrible consequences flashed through Jiang Motian's mind...

But overthinking was of no use.
