It wasn't until Lu Yu saw the conspicuous safety rope behind Gu Wan that he gradually recovered from his full-body paralysis.
Gu Wan only felt the strange sensation of weightlessness brought on by the rapid descent, which simultaneously excited her as adrenaline surged through her body, causing her eyes to sparkle brightly.
Gu Wan swayed left and right in mid-air due to inertia, her entire body suspended upside down. The willows on both banks occasionally slid across her retina. In a mont of distraction, Gu Wan seed to catch a glimpse of a familiar figure.
Lu Yu stood there, wearing a crisp suit that was completely out of place in the amusent park. He appeared to be on the phone, holding it up and staring intently in this direction.
Although she didn't know why he would appear at this ti and place, Gu Wan still waved her hand to greet him.
Seeing the near-smile on Gu Wan's face, Lu Yu felt no joy. Instead, his grip on the phone tightened even more.
He thought he probably knew what the new substitute was now.
After a while, Lu Yu finally managed a forced smile under Gu Wan's puzzled expression.
About ten minutes later, Gu Wan ca down from the bungee jumping platform, and sure enough, Lu Yu was already waiting there.
"Why are you here? Aren't you working?"
After the recent activity, beads of sweat had ford on Gu Wan's forehead and the tip of her nose, and even her hair was a bit ssy.
Seeing her slightly out of breath, Lu Yu paused, then took out a handkerchief from his pocket.
"...Thank you." Gu Wan was stunned for a mont before reaching out to take it.
The two walked along the willow-shaded path on either side. Lu Yu didn't answer, only saying, "Let's have a al together later." He showed no sign of the urgency he had when looking for her earlier.
Seeing that the man didn't seem inclined to ask about her arm, Gu Wan felt relieved that she didn't have to explain.
"Sure," she nodded casually.
"By the way, do you want to try so rides too? There are a few quite fun ones." The tickets for this amusent park were quite expensive, and it would feel a bit wasteful to just leave like this.
Lu Yu originally had no interest in these things, but seeing Gu Wan's expectant look, he suddenly swallowed his words of refusal.
"...Mm." He nodded.
Gu Wan didn't hesitate and imdiately led him to the roller coaster.
This was the most thrilling ride she had experienced today apart from bungee jumping.
Gu Wan thought that since Lu Yu looked mature and steady, his psychological endurance must be quite good, and he probably wouldn't like those childish things, but...
When the roller coaster reached its highest point, Gu Wan watched as his expression tightened.
They had managed to get the front seats, which made the view from above even more terrifying.
Wait, could it be that he...
Before Gu Wan could finish her thought, the entire carriage plumted almost vertically.
Just as Lu Yu felt his heart seize up, the next second, a hand covered his.
Gu Wan's unique warmth transferred over, and Lu Yu instinctively grasped back.
Hiss—
Gripped a bit too tightly by the man's strength, Gu Wan inhaled sharply, but after a mont's thought, she still didn't pull away.
Five minutes later, the two got off the roller coaster. Seeing Lu Yu's face slightly pale, Gu Wan didn't ntion continuing.
As Lu Yu was catching his breath, a bottle of mineral water appeared before his eyes.
Gu Wan sighed, "If you're afraid of heights, why did you ride it?"
Lu Yu's hand paused as he was unscrewing the bottle cap. "I suddenly wanted to try it."
To try what kind of feeling it was.
"...You're acting like a child," Gu Wan muttered.
Not at all.
Lu Yu pressed his lips together.
Lu Yu opened his mouth, but Gu Wan didn't give him a chance to retort. After all, there were so many people in the amusent park, it wouldn't be good if people noticed him. What about his image as a company CEO?
Gu Wan pulled him out of the amusent park gates, where sure enough, a car was already waiting for them.
After the two got in the car, Gu Wan finally noticed that Lu Yu had called her so many tis earlier. A dozen or so calls in a row, Gu Wan thought it must have been sothing urgent.
Lu Yu suddenly didn't know how to explain. Should he say he didn't know why, but at that mont he had an urgent desire to see her?
After that impulse passed, so things beca difficult to say.
Fortunately, Gu Wan didn't mind. After deleting the call logs, she suddenly thought of sothing else.
"By the way, do you know a girl nad Zhong Yi?" Gu Wan had no impression of this person and couldn't rember when she had t her, but the other person was sohow on her friends list. After so thought, she figured it must be related to Lu Yu.
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Wan clearly saw the man beside her pause for a mont.
Lu Yu had actually only been reminded about this person today and just learned of her existence, but for so reason, when Gu Wan asked like this, he inexplicably beca uncomfortable.
"...Ahem."
Lu Yu cleared his throat lightly and said vaguely, "I believe she was my high school classmate."
Gu Wan understood, "I see, you liked her."
Lu Yu was startled, his tone changing abruptly, "No!"
Gu Wan: "Then she liked you."
Lu Yu: "..."
Lu Yu wanted to explain, but he really didn't know how to, because he truly couldn't rember!
Seeing his expression change back and forth, Gu Wan laughed instead, "Why are you so nervous? I won't get angry over this." Gu Wan thought that with his looks and wealth, it was only natural for people to like him.
Noticing her casualness, Lu Yu frowned unconsciously, feeling a bit unhappy. Then he seed to rember sothing and frowned even more deeply, "How did you get her contact information?"
"And why would she contact you?"
"I don't know when I added her as a friend, I just noticed it today. But that's not the point." Getting to the main issue, Gu Wan gradually beca serious and quickly explained about soone investigating her.
Gu Wan thought hard but couldn't figure out who might hold a grudge against her. She didn't go out much, so she wondered if it might be related to Lu Yu. Could soone be trying to get to Lu Yu and his company through her?
However, as Gu Wan spoke, she noticed that the expression of the man beside her was gradually becoming strange.
Gu Wan asked almost instinctively, "You know who it is?"
Lu Yu hadn't expected this complication. He couldn't understand why that young man said Zhong Yi liked him, yet she would tip off Gu Wan.
As Lu Yu's silence grew longer, a thought suddenly flashed through Gu Wan's mind: "Wait."
"Don't tell the one investigating is you??"
Lu Yu was silent for a mont, then nodded.
For a mont, Gu Wan didn't know what to say.
"...You really have too much free ti."
Seeing that it wasn't a rival company's doing, Gu Wan relaxed and spoke very casually, "If you wanted to know sothing, couldn't you just ask directly? It's not like it's anything important."
But in the past, she would never tell him anything.
Lu Yu took a deep breath, "Anything is fine?"
Gu Wan nodded, "Anything is fine."
"Even..." Lu Yu paused here, but finally asked, "Even about your childhood?"
"Mm-hmm." Gu Wan didn't feel there was anything she couldn't talk about. After all, it wasn't her who should feel ashad.
"Of course."
For Gu Wan, the past was in the past. The various experiences that had tornted her for so long had now been let go.
But for Lu Yu, such an answer was no less than a nightmare. Every word, every calm tone told him that once she moved on, she would never look back.
Whether towards her parents or towards him, it was the sa.
Lu Yu suddenly rembered that it had been nearly two months since Gu Wan lost her mory.
Because she no longer needed to maintain her perfection, there was no past that couldn't be ntioned to him anymore.
