After Exchanging Shadows - Chapter 172
Chapter 172-Missing
Xi Mo was very persistent. His eyes began to patrol around, and his mouth said: “Although the box is not broken, but when it is possible to carry it, the tape on the top of the carton has not been sealed properly. Did it fall out? Logically speaking, this is also possible.”
This may be small, small.
She just…not reconciled.
More is indescribable regret.
I don’t know what to do, but I always feel that I should do something to make up for it.
Ruan Yesheng was infected by her stubbornness, and Xi Mo looked around there. If Xi Mo didn’t look for it, I’m afraid it would be hard to let go.
She walked to the box containing her presents and letters and took a closer look. She seemed to comfort Xi Mo and said, “What you said makes sense. There are two or three layers of tape on this box. Maybe the first layer is not properly attached. After moving in, the tape was patched up. As long as there is a possibility that it is not properly attached, there will indeed be gaps.
There are many boxes in this room, and everything is very cumbersome when it is turned over. There will definitely be cases where the sealing tape is not properly attached at the beginning, and then the tape is patched after the backing is placed. At that time, the manor was busy, and sometimes the boxes were moved in without adhesive tape because of negligence, and the people who checked the inventory in the room repaired the tape. This is also the case.
Envelopes are narrow and small, making it easier to leak through this gap than anything else.
Xi Mo grasped such a small possibility and looked for it seriously.
Ruan Yesheng understood her and helped to check carefully in the room.
They shuttled between the box and the box, seeing everything that should be seen, not even the gap between the box and the box, especially Xi Mo actually leaned down and lay on the ground to look under the pads. It was quite embarrassing. If this were put before Xi Mo, it would be unimaginable.
“Did you ask Zhou Wenxu to hand it over at the time?” Xi Mo asked while using his mobile phone to illuminate, looking under the pad, his tone seemed to be somewhat displeased.
She is not angry with Zhou Wenxu.
It’s mad at myself.
If Zhou Wenxu had given it to her, she would have been more concerned, and she wouldn’t have mixed those gifts and letters with other fans’ gift letters.
It was that she… didn’t know how to cherish, and her mind was not there at all.
“Everything else is for Mr. Er.” Ruan Yesheng followed her and looked under the other pad. She just counted the letters and knew which one was missing. Her expression was a bit complicated: “But the one that was missing No, I asked Uncle Ding to help me bring it to you.”
“Uncle Ding?” Xi Mo stopped temporarily.
Ruan Yesheng’s face was dark: “I actually wanted to give that letter to you personally. I was outside the Xi’s manor at the time, but I didn’t dare to go in, so I wandered outside. Uncle Ding came over and asked me why I didn’t go in. , Are you going to find you and prepare to take me in, but I… I didn’t go in in the end, so I gave the letter to Uncle Ding and asked him to take it in for you.”
After all, she was cowardly the same as she was, and didn’t take that step.
She even asked Ding Ru not to tell Xi Mo that it was her letter first. When Zhou Wenxu passed it on, she didn’t ask Zhou Wenxu to mention her name.
On her envelope, there is only her mark and no signature.
“…When was that?” Xi Mo thought about it, and found that he didn’t have much impression, and he quickly asked the time: “Sometimes Uncle Ding will bring me a few letters or gifts, and his acquaintances ask to pass them on. Mine, when was the time you passed it on?”
Ruan Yesheng couldn’t forget that day, and told Xi Mo the specific time at that time, and then said, “That is the last letter I will give you.”
Xi Mo was startled.
She doesn’t know what happened that day, but since that day, she has never seen Ruan Yesheng in private. Ruan Yesheng no longer contacted her, no longer looked for her, no longer attended any event, and no new works.
Ruan Yesheng faded out of the circle, without resources, and would undoubtedly pass away slowly, but she became more and more popular, and Ruan Yesheng drifted away, and finally became a person of two worlds.
“I seem to remember that Uncle Ding gave me a letter that day, let me take a closer look.” The more Xi Mo recalled, the more he felt weak, because she realized that she didn’t even have a deep impression of the letter. This shows how cold she was back then.
And the more he realized this, the more Xi Mo’s regret felt like sea water surged, drowning her severely.
“He didn’t say who wrote the letter.” Xi Mo lowered his head: “I will take it and put it on the coffee table.”
“So you received that letter in the first place?” Ruan Yesheng looked at her like this, incomparably sighed.
Xi Mo still didn’t look at the one he received.
“If it was the day you said, I did receive it.” Xi Mo said in a low voice: “I was very busy at the time, so I wanted to read it after I was busy, and I didn’t know it was your letter, I just scanned it. At a glance, there is no name on it.”
“There is my mark on the back of the envelope, and it was designed with you.” Ruan Yesheng smiled bitterly.
She is not blaming Ximo.
But to blame the original self, how ridiculous.
If she writes her name on every letter and every gift, and tells Zhou Wenxu and Ding Ru that when they hand it over, she said it was from her, is it possible that Xi Mo would not miss it? But she didn’t do that at that time. Her letter was so tortuous, hiding her more tactful thoughts, hoping Xi Mo could discover her secret.
It is she who has expectations beyond Xi Mo.
If Xi Mo could see the mark, she might know that she gave it. After all, she and Xi Mo designed the mark together.
She thought so at the time.
She had such self-imaginative expectations, but did not consider the cold reality.
I like a person, hoping that she can discover the secret she has carefully prepared.
But that person… doesn’t like her.
Hope that person finds out, will he find out? This is impossible.
She just had an unrealistic young dream.
“I…I didn’t take it too seriously.” Xi Mo was so nervous that he almost squatted, but still honestly admitted her feelings at the time: “Uncle Ding has many acquaintances who are fans. Ask him to send me things and letters. I… …Received too much, I didn’t care much.”
“I… didn’t look at the back.” Xi Mo’s head dropped lower and lower: “Ye Sheng… I’m sorry.”
If she could travel back in time to that day, she would beat herself up that day first.
“It’s my fault.” Seeing Xi Mo apologized, Ruan Yesheng felt a pain in his heart, and said softly, “It’s because I didn’t write the name, and let Mr. Er and Uncle Ding not say it was me. I want to wait for you to find out.”
Xi Mo became more regretful and could hardly speak.
She… didn’t find it.
“If I write the name on it and ask them to say that I gave it, will you take it apart soon?” Ruan Yesheng asked Xi Mo.
For a long time, Xi Mo nodded: “…Yes.”
“That’s enough.” Ruan Yesheng’s eyes faintly glowed, and he smiled slightly: “Don’t blame yourself.”
She was also satisfied.
“I…” The color of guilt in Xi Mo’s eyes increased unabated.
“You said you put my letter on the coffee table, and you forgot it later?” Ruan Yesheng could probably guess the situation at the time and asked, “I don’t know where I got it?”
“No.” Xi Mo said hurriedly: “I didn’t forget, I was going to see it after I was busy. After all, Uncle Ding told me that I must watch it, and I couldn’t help him, but when I go to the coffee table When I took the letter, the letter was gone.”
“Gone?” Ruan Yesheng was surprised.
“Yes, I searched for a while, and asked if Aunt Zhou helped me clean up. Aunt Zhou said no.” Xi Mo’s memory seemed to come back little by little, gradually becoming clearer.
“Is it possible that Uncle Xi picked it up for you?” After Ruan Yesheng asked, he immediately denied: “No, Uncle Xi won’t do this, he doesn’t look like someone who can move your things.”
“My dad was not there at all that day.” Xi Mo frowned, “Uncle Ding did not come to him, but came to pick up his dog. When he is busy, the dog is sometimes kept at my house.”
“Did the letter just disappear out of thin air?” Ruan Yesheng was so curious now that he learned the truth about that day.
“Um…I didn’t find it anyway.” Xi Mo was ashamed, but didn’t want to hide Ruan Yesheng, but made it clear: “I didn’t dare to ask Uncle Ding. Uncle Ding asked me later if I finished reading the letter, I…I… Said that I had finished reading, and I did not dare to tell him about the missing letter, for fear that he would get angry, after all, he specially told me to read it.
Ruan Yesheng wanted to laugh inexplicably.
In fact, no matter how arrogant Xi Mo is outside, he is very good at home and a little respect for his elders. At that time, she was afraid of her father, lost the letter and was afraid that Uncle Ding would say that she would make her speechless when Aunt Lan was at home.
Xi Mo noticed the smile on Ruan Yesheng’s lips and said, “…are you laughing at me?”
“I didn’t expect you to be like a little girl sometimes.” Ruan Yesheng smacked a word on his lips and tongue: “Cute.”
Xi Mo: “…”
Ruan Yesheng felt a little more relaxed. Originally, Xi Mo could not be blamed for this. It was all because of unrealistic fantasies that he did not write his name, and refused to let him know that she had sent it. He hoped that Xi Mo would notice her mark and provoke him. A miss out.
“Forget it, don’t look for it.” Ruan Yesheng laughed: “This is actually because we have no fate. Otherwise, how to receive a gift and a letter will be so difficult.”
When Xi Mo heard this, his face sank and he looked upset again.
She just wanted to.
Xi Mo didn’t say a word, and continued to look around.
“I’ll just tell you the content of the letter.” Ruan Yesheng was afraid of her entanglement, and took the initiative to say: “But after so long, I can’t recite it to you. I just want to say goodbye to you and invite you to meet you for a meal. Fan, ask if you have time to see me.”
“Farewell?” Xi Mo was bending over, resting his hand on the corner of the pad, and looking back at her now.
“I decided to quit the entertainment industry at that time.” Ruan Yesheng squatted down beside her: “You develop in the entertainment industry. If I leave, we won’t have much overlap in the future, so I want to talk to you individually.”
“Did your letter include the time and place of dinner?” Xi Mo asked.
She always felt that with Ruan Yesheng’s temperament, since she didn’t tell her face to face, she would probably write the eating place in the letter, just like putting the ticket for the aquarium in the gift box.
“I have written it.” Ruan Yesheng said, “At my house, I want to cook a meal for you.”
“You… did it?” Xi Mo trembled.
“I have done it.” Ruan Yesheng smiled unabatedly: “I’ll make a meal and wait for you to be a guest at home. Actually, I’m not sure if you will come. I hope you will come, but when the food gets cold later. , You still didn’t come, and I was not too surprised.”
Xi Mo curled his eyebrows and said nothing.
Ruan Yesheng hugged his knees, leaned on a box behind him, looked at Xi Mo with some relaxation, and said: “I will write to you, give gifts, and not write the name but only the mark. That is just a wish of mine. I’m not sure that you can see it. If you can find out, I’ll be very happy. If you don’t find out or don’t respond, I can accept it. Waiting for you in the aquarium, waiting for you when cooking at home, you have none Come, but you don’t have to feel guilty, that is just a wish of mine.”
Xi Mo tried to figure out what Ruan Yesheng meant.
“A wish, I hope it will happen, if it happens, how good, waiting with that mood.” Ruan Yesheng seemed relieved, opening up to Xi Mo and telling her mood at that time: “But I I also know that you probably won’t come either. It’s not an appointment between you and me. You don’t need it, let alone the obligation to come.”
“I just hope so.” Ruan Yesheng finished speaking, looking at Xi Mo: “This is my business, don’t blame yourself.”
“Who said it was your business?” Xi Mo glared at her.
“That’s not my business, or yours?” Ruan Yesheng wanted to laugh again.
Xi Mo: “…”
She thinks this is a matter between her and Ruan Yesheng.
But I don’t know why, but I couldn’t say what I said.
“Xi Mo, Xi Mo.” Xi Mo was stuck in his heart, but Ruan Yesheng began to shake her arm: “There seems to be something under the pad?”
Xi Mo followed Ruan Yesheng’s gaze, pressed his body down, and shone towards the bottom with his phone.
I saw an envelope lying under the pad where she and Ruan Yesheng were now. Xi Mo hurriedly reached out and pulled the envelope out, and found that the envelope was almost all crumpled together, covered with a thick layer of dust.
This is not Ruan Yesheng’s envelope.
It looks very old, even the paper is so fragile, it may shatter if you are not careful.
“Is it your mother’s belongings?” Ruan Yesheng stared at the envelope and asked, “It fell off during the transportation, didn’t pay attention, and accidentally kicked it under the pad?”
This place is full of Jian Xian’s relics, other than that, Ruan Yesheng couldn’t think of other possibilities.
The envelope was blank, and there was no receipt or mailing information on it. Xi Mo sensed that there was something in the envelope. He opened the envelope and took out a piece of letter paper from the inside.
A few words were written on the letter paper, and the handwriting was very delicate.
“I don’t feel right, it always feels like someone is staring at me. I will go to Changsha next month. See you in our old place. I brought that item over and it became more and more weird. , You help me see.”
There was no signature, but Xi Mo knew it was her mother’s handwriting.
Jian Xian left when she was very young, but the family kept a lot of things Jian Xian wrote, including documents, letters, etc. Xi Mo had read before.
“My mother wrote it.” Xi Mo said, looking at Ruan Yesheng.
“I didn’t write the mailing address and recipient. After all, this letter is invalid. Your mother wrote a new copy and sent it away, leaving the invalid letter. Or is your mother changed her mind after writing the letter? , Didn’t send it out?” Ruan Yesheng asked her.
“…I don’t know.” Xi Mo was hesitant: “Who is she going to send to? Look at this tone, it should be someone she trusts very much.”
“Did she have very good friends in Changsha back then?” Ruan Yesheng pondered.
“I don’t know this, I have to ask my dad.” Xi Mo said, “but my mother is in the antiques business and has a lot of contact with some people who do antiques in Changsha. I just don’t know who this letter is for. “

The previous gifts and letters were missed for one reason or another. At that time, the two were immature, but fortunately they did not lose them. In fact, seeing them now is much better than seeing them before.
Time is such an interesting thing, and if they don’t exchange their bodies, it is even more impossible to have the relationship they have today. So fate is also such an interesting thing.
