Chapter 341
Months had passed, but he still looked as handsome as before . He was in a dark green military uniform and wore black gloves . He was looking down at her .
They looked at each other silently .
What about their promise of never seeing each other again?
But…
She looked up from the stairs and he looked down from her apartment door . They missed each other so much, but neither of them moved .
After a long while, Lu Zhaoyang finally took the first step and walked towards him .
Huo Chen watched her approach and stepped aside from the door, but he kept his eyes on her .
Lu Zhaoyang was within his arm’s reach .
“Yang Yang . ”
Lu Zhaoyang looked down and took out her keys from her bag . She held the keys tightly and asked, “Huo Yunting and I were attacked on the road earlier today, and now you’re here . Did you send those people?”
The bullet hit the trunk . Nothing much happened after that .
It felt like a warning .
It was natural for her to be suspicious .
“Attacked?”
Huo Chen panicked and grabbed her arms to check for injuries . “Are you alright? Are you hurt?”
“It really… wasn’t you?”
She felt stupid for asking something like that, considering how deeply she knew Huo Chen .
Besides, Huo Yunting was his nephew, his family . He had no reason to plan the attack .
“Of course it wasn’t . ” He slowly let her arms go . His heart ached .

Did she not trust him anymore…
Huo Chen looked at her and switched the topic . “I’m sorry for not visiting you sooner . ”
He saw Huo Yunting spent the whole night at her place last time and felt worried about her .
Since he was recently assigned to some work at the city, he made a request to visit her .
If he waited any longer, he might lose his mind .
“I’m fine . What about you? How are you healing?” She still remembered the bloody marks on his back that day like it was yesterday .
“I’m doing better now . ”
His body was fully healed, but his heart was aching more .
Lu Zhaoyang nodded and turned to open the door .

Should she invite him in?
But she had promised old Mrs Huo to never see him again .
Lu Zhaoyang stood by the door but did not enter . Her life was once again in turmoil due to his presence .
They may never be together again, but they were still family .
Huo Chen noted her hesitation and realized that his visit was too sudden .
He said gently, “I still have business to attend to . Do take care, you are staying alone after all . ”
Lu Zhaoyang smiled with affected cheer and said, “You take care too . ”
After the last incident and all the years without him, she realized just how dangerous his job was .
They were almost like strangers now . They greeted and parted with no plans for the future .

Huo Chen turned and slowly walked away . When he heard the door shut behind him, he stopped and turned to look at the door .
Time could mend hearts, but also break them . After being separated for so long, their relationship was possibly… probably…
Sigh .
Lu Zhaoyang leaned back against the door and shut her eyes in distress . She felt so lonely .
She could not hear his footsteps anymore . He must be gone now .
She tossed her bag away and rushed to the window in the living room . She pulled the blinds and looked downstairs .
She could not see him .
She continued staring at the entrance to her apartment .
