Although the dead cannot be brought back to life, and his ashes are right here with me.
Yet, suddenly hearing this familiar voice, my heart couldn't help but leap with joy.
It was the man I'd been thinking about for so long.
I was dying to snatch the phone from Lin Nansheng's hand and ask for clarity.
But reason still prevailed, and I wouldn't allow myself to commit such a discourteous act.
All I could do was to wait patiently, reigning in my eagerness.
Fortunately, Lin Nansheng only gave brief instructions and quickly hung up the call.
I forced down the excitement bubbling inside me and pretended to be nonchalant as I asked him,
"Uncle Lin, who was that on the phone just now?"
"Oh, a family member!"
Lin Nansheng said casually.
Family member?
The hope in my heart shattered in an instant.
If it was his family member, then it definitely wasn't Gu Yuanzhou.
A sense of loss overtook me once more.
"Which city is Uncle Lin's family in now?"
