All things will eventually return to their origin.

Meng Chu was woken up by Chen Shuguan. She rubbed her eyes sleepily, not yet completely awake.

"Wake up. Didn't you make an appointment with the doctor to remove the stitches." Chen Shuguan's expression was a bit complicated, and he sat on the edge of the bed, without avoiding her.

He was so close that she woke up instantly. She shivered and tried to get up. She felt like she had been practicing boxing all night, and every muscle in her body was sore.

"You..." As soon as she uttered a word, Meng Chu herself was startled by the deep voice, her vocal chords hoarse.

Meng Chu raised her eyebrows. She was bewitched, but she didn't lose her memory. Anyone with discerning eyes could know what happened just by looking at her like this.

Especially when she learned that this strange addiction was not her own fault, but he still treated her like this. He didn't care what she thought, and he wasn't afraid that she would stab him in the back.

How are Chen Shuguan's actions different from rape?

But she knew his ability, and the police couldn't help her.

Meng Chu's hatred can be imagined.

If it weren't for Chen Shuguan, the trajectory of her life in her previous life would not have been like this, and she would never have been able to guess that his surname could be so distorted in her entire life.

However, Chen Shuguan didn't give her any chance to do anything, and finally opened his mouth, his thin lips lightly opened, "Chuchu, I'm so close to you, haven't you noticed it yet?"

Her senses were temporarily obscured by hatred until he finished saying this. After his words, Meng Chu realized that Chen Shuguan's strange influence on her had disappeared.

The man got up and left.

Her clothes were neatly stacked in front of the bed, Meng Chu struggled to get up, and twenty minutes later, she turned her head to look at the tall Chinese locust tree outside the window and left the room.

Chen Shuguan was standing under the locust tree in the yard. Seeing that she was holding the door and was about to leave, he looked at her, pursed his lips, and said, "This is a private villa area. Who would give you a ride?"

Meng Chu didn't want to hear it, so she lowered her eyes and walked straight out. Probably because she moved too much, she forgot that her legs still couldn't exert too much strength, and she stumbled after a few steps, almost falling.

He went to help her, and his body instinctively took a step forward, but he froze in place, and in the end, his voice was hoarse, and he said to her with great piety: "Goodbye Meng Chuchu, I will let you go."

She had already left the courtyard when she heard the words behind her, she suddenly stopped and didn't look back.

If she turned around, she would have noticed.

The morning sun was rising, and most of Chen Shuguan's body was hidden under the shadow of the giant locust tree. In the half-light and half-darkness, the man smiled. The smile looked very normal, but it stayed on his face for a long time and didn't disappear, gradually changing, revealing an indescribable strangeness.

The doctor from the Beijing People's Hospital removed the sutures on Meng Chu's arm. The skin grew a little tender, and the color was obviously different from other places. Because of the stitches, it was inevitable that a few lines would be left like a centipede. The scars look very inconsistent on her smooth and fair skin.

It's fine because it's in winter now, but it won't be covered in summer, and Meng Chu still needs to be on camera.

She looked a little uncomfortable there.

Seeing that she was young, the doctor gave her two more words of comfort: "Don't worry, medical cosmetic technology is so advanced now, not to mention your scars, just visit the cosmetic doctor."

Meng Chu stayed in Beijing for another night. The next day, she contacted the crew and drove to Yunchuan City by herself, and the crew sent a car to pick her up.

This Spring Festival, Meng Chu is destined to spend it in the program group.

Meng Yuan and Zhou Qing thought that this was the first time their daughter was away for the New Year alone, and they wanted to visit her in Chenli Village.

But Meng Yuan's parents and Meng Chu's mother came over this year. The old man's heart is not very good, he can't stand the long journey, and he is afraid that he will not be able to adapt to the northern environment, so he can only give up.

The Chen family's New Year's Eve dinner is even later, and Chen Jue has been busy running around in various troops since the twelfth lunar month.

After twelve o'clock, Chen Jue hurried home. Mrs. Zhang had already wrapped the dumplings and waited for him to come back to cook.

The New Year that should have been a happy evening, Zheng Ying was a little bit lacking in interest, so she put down her chopsticks after taking two bites.

Chen Jue knew what she was thinking, "Dad still complained about the fact that we were registered privately back then. He would rather stay in a nursing home in the military region than come back here."

Zheng Busheng came from an old-style big family since he was a child .IHe is a typical old-time noble boy.

Such a person resolutely left his family and school at a young age and started a revolution with the army. His temper was naturally stubborn.

It's not just that Zheng Ying is upset, "I went to the sanatorium today and heard from the guard that the old man had asthma again. The smog in Beijing is heavy, and the temperature difference is too big, so it's really not suitable for recuperation."

Chen Jue thought about it and told her not to be too worried, "I'll turn around and let people pay attention to see if there is anything more suitable."

Chen Shuguan has always been less talkative.

After eating, he was about to leave, and Zheng Ying shouted from behind: "Where are you going?!"

Chen Shuguan said, "There are still some things to do in the laboratory."

He raised his legs and left.

Chen Jue put down his chopsticks and hugged Zheng Ying, "Jiaojiao, I'll retire from this position in two years and take you out to travel."
