Volu 4: High School Arc - “I” Co to Find You~
Why does my head feel so fuzzy?
I...
"Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang? Feeling better?"
"Uh... yes, yes, a bit better."
Strange, who is he?
Looking at this man in front of , why doesn’t my brain recall much... wait, no, I know him.
"I'm feeling much better now. Really, sorry to trouble you, Brother Wang, I just..."
Brother Wang in front of chuckled and said,
"Hey! Who doesn’t get sick from ti to ti? It’s fine, really. I took care of today’s work for you. You go back first. Don’t forget to take your dicine when you get ho. If it really doesn’t work, just take a sick leave for two days tomorrow, okay?"
Seeing Brother Wang care so much about , a junior, made feel a bit flattered, and there was even a trace of warmth in my heart.
"Eh eh, Brother Wang, then... I’ll head back first?"
"Alright."
"Thank you so much."
"Alright, alright, no need to be polite, go on now."
"Okay!"
I picked up my briefcase, but there was this strange sense of dissonance lingering in my mind.
Why does it feel this way?
It’s like... I shouldn’t be standing here, but... this is where I work?
"That's weird. Did the fever fry my brain?"
I raised my hand and touched my forehead, but when my palm ca up, I couldn’t help glancing at my fingers, and the sense of dissonance grew even stronger.
"Strange... why do I feel like my fingers should be slimr?"
Mumbling to myself, I carried my briefcase, turned, and walked to the elevator doors, waiting with the briefcase in hand.
I pressed the elevator button and looked up at the digital display, watching the numbers go up one by one, waiting patiently.
My head was foggy.
The cold must be serious...
It's all because of that phone call last night.
I didn’t sleep well at all!
Seriously, what kind of prank was that!
I was so dazed this morning I forgot to take my dicine, even forgot to bring it!
Speaking of which... who was that call from?
That phone number... tsk!
Just thinking about it gives goosebumps.
Who the hell does that?
Could it have been soone I know?
It shouldn't be.
I haven’t offended anyone, have I?
As I thought about it, I stared at the elevator doors in front of .
The smooth white steel surface reflected a blurry shadow of .
Looking at this face in the mirror... so familiar, yet so strangely unfamiliar, I couldn’t help but furrow my brow.
Where was this strange... sense of dissonance coming from?
My groggy mind made close my eyes, but just before I fully shut them, I seed to see a woman’s silhouette reflected in the elevator door!!
I froze.
I didn’t hear anyone approach, did I?
Was there a woman beside ?
I frowned and instinctively turned to look.
But just that glance made all the goosebumps on my body rise.
Beside ... there was no woman at all!
I was the only one standing in front of the elevator!!
Wait!
Then whose reflection was that in the elevator door?
Instinctively, I looked back at the elevator doors.
On the surface... was only my reflection, no trace of a woman anywhere!
"Tsk~ Seems like I’m really out of it with this fever... I’m even seeing hallucinations now."
My heart felt a little creeped out, but as an atheist, I still firmly believed there were no demons or ghosts in this world.
Even that call from last night only spooked a little.
I might not believe it, but being scared is a different matter.
To be honest, I'm actually quite timid, though of course I’d never admit it!
Before I realized it, the elevator had already reached the nineteenth floor.
As the elevator doors opened, I stepped inside.
There was no one in the elevator, which made sense.
I raised my hand and glanced at my watch—it was already past six in the evening.
Those who were off duty had long left.
After all, Tianding Everything was a major international brand.
Our company had very strict office hours.
With such humanized managent, every employee here was full of vitality.
Thinking about that, I covered my groggy head.
The fever had raised my body temperature, making the surroundings feel rather cold.
Watching the numbers on the elevator drop one by one and feeling the slight sense of weightlessness, I couldn’t help chanting in my heart, "Faster, faster."
Wandering outside in this condition really wasn’t a good idea.
However, the elevator didn’t take all the way down as I wished.
When it reached the seventh floor, it stopped.
Right after that, a man and a woman stepped in.
I lowered my head, groggily listening to the voices near my ears.
I didn’t look at the two of them, and they didn’t look at either.
Tianding Everything was a huge company.
Though this entire building belonged to Tianding, each floor differed greatly in terms of business.
The seventh floor… if I recall correctly, was it related to real estate?
The woman’s voice was calm but carried a hint of warmth.
"Yulong, do you think we should go celebrate a bit?"
"Celebrate? Celebrate what?"
The man’s voice sounded energetic, but there was a trace of frivolousness in it.
Strange…
I shouldn’t know the people behind these voices, yet why did they feel so inexplicably familiar?
Instinctively, I lifted my head and looked at the man and woman beside .
The man wasn’t tall, but he looked full of life.
His eyes sparkled, and he had a bright and energetic deanor.
The woman, on the other hand, wore glasses and had long hair, but her expression was a bit cold.
"Celebrate Yunyan’s recovery! She’s been sick for almost a week. It’s about ti we celebrated, right? Besides…"
The woman trailed off at this point, then glanced at ?
"That makes sense. But isn’t she still at school today? How about tomorrow morning instead?"
The man nodded, but the woman imdiately responded,
"Tomorrow morning won’t work. She has class in the morning—music class. Let’s do it in the afternoon. I’ll call her then, you pick a place."
"Alright."
Looking at the two in front of , I wasn’t really interested in their conversation.
But why did that na—Yunyan… why did it draw my attention so much?
Strange…
Using the elevator’s reflective doors, I caught a blurry glimpse of their na tags.
Real estate sales manager and deputy manager?
Forget it.
Why think so much?
I didn’t know these two at all.
And besides, I wasn’t feeling well at all.
Probably because of the fever.
Seriously, that call last night…
What was that—“I’ll co find you tomorrow”?
Who the hell did I offend?
Frowning tightly, I had no clues at all.
I could only keep thinking as I exited the building.
The man and woman went straight down to the underground parking lot.
As for , I could only look on with a bit of envy, gritting my teeth and continuing to work hard.
As a small-ti employee from out of town working in the provincial capital, let alone owning a car, I could only afford to rent the cheapest place I could find.
Normally, though it was far, I still had enough ti and could walk back with ease.
But today, that clearly wasn’t going to work.
I raised my hand to hail a cab, got in, gave the driver my ho address, and then shut my eyes.
The car moved steadily along the road.
I sat there, nearly drifting off to sleep, when the car suddenly jolted.
I was startled out of my daze.
Opening my eyes, I realized we had already arrived at my rental place.
I scanned the WeChat code and looked at the twelve yuan fare.
My heart ached a little.
I got out of the car with my phone in hand, and as I stood in front of these old apartnt blocks, my head suddenly flashed with a mory of midnight from last night...
