Chapter 487 Despair
Jiang Ciyou dragged her exhausted body back to the hotel room, her eyes were empty, as if she had lost her soul. She slowly walked to the bed and sat down weakly, as if all the strength in her body had been drained.
The room was filled with a dull atmosphere, and the silence was depressing. Jiang Ciyou's mind kept replaying the scene of himself looking for Lu Jingchen. Those moments that were once full of hope have now turned into deep despair.
She recalled how she had confidently set out on her journey to find Lu Jingchen. She went to every place they had been to together, those corners full of memories, and it seemed as if she could still see their laughter and joy. However, reality cruelly told her that Lu Jingchen was not there.
She came to the cafe where they had their first date. The warm lights and melodious music had witnessed their sweetness. She sat in the seat where they had sat before, expecting Lu Jingchen to suddenly appear in front of her. However, there were only busy waiters and unfamiliar customers. An indescribable sense of loss surged in her heart, as if the whole world had become gray.
Then, she went to the top of the mountain where they had watched the sunrise together. The magnificent scenery had once fascinated them. They hugged each other tightly, feeling the beauty of nature and the warmth of each other. Jiang Ciyou stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the distant horizon, hoping to see Lu Jingchen's figure. However, she saw nothing except the whistling wind and endless emptiness. Her tears flowed down involuntarily, and she didn't know how long she could hold on.
Then, she went to Lu Jingchen's company. She walked into the tall building with great expectations, hoping to find him there. However, the staff at the front desk told her that Lu Jingchen had not come to work for a long time. Her heart sank to the bottom in an instant. She didn't know where Lu Jingchen had gone, nor did she know how to find him. She felt so helpless and insignificant, as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.
Jiang Ciyou did not give up. She continued to post missing person notices online, hoping to get some clues. She used the most sincere words to describe her longing for Lu Jingchen and her determination to find him, hoping to move those who saw the notice. However, as time passed, she did not receive any useful responses. Her hopes were shattered little by little, and she began to doubt whether her efforts were still meaningful.
She also went to Lu Jingchen's friends to inquire about him. She had a glimmer of hope, hoping that they would know Lu Jingchen's whereabouts. However, they didn't know where Lu Jingchen had gone. They looked at Jiang Ciyou's desperate eyes, full of sympathy in their hearts, but they were powerless. Jiang Ciyou felt that she had reached a desperate situation, and she didn't know what to do.
Jiang Ciyou lay on the bed, tears streaming down her face. She felt like a failure. She had lost her husband and Lu Jingchen. She didn't know what else she had to lose. She began to recall her life, and all those dreams and hopes she had had were now out of reach.
She thought of her marriage with her husband, which was once the future she had been looking forward to. She had given everything for that family, but in return she was betrayed by her husband. She had thought she could forgive him and start over, but now she realized that her heart had been hurt too deeply. She could no longer return to that painful marriage, and she needed to find her own happiness.
And Lu Jingchen, the man who once brought her warmth and hope, has now disappeared without a trace. She doesn't know why he left, nor does she know if he still loves her. She only knows that she can't live without him. His gentleness and thoughtfulness, his care and love have been deeply imprinted in her heart. She can't imagine how she would live without him.
The more Jiang Ciyou thought about it, the sadder she became. She felt that her world had collapsed. She didn't know where to go, nor did she know what to look forward to in the future. She felt that she was trapped in endless darkness and couldn't extricate herself.
At this moment, Jiang Ciyou's cell phone suddenly rang. A glimmer of hope surged in her heart, thinking that it was a call from Lu Jingchen. However, when she picked up the phone, it was an unfamiliar number. Her heart was filled with disappointment. She didn't know who called, nor did she know whether it would bring her new hope.
Jiang Ciyou hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the phone. A strange voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, is this Ms. Jiang Ciyou?" Jiang Ciyou's voice was a little hoarse: "Yes, who are you?" The other party said: "I am a person who saw your missing person notice, and I may have some clues about Lu Jingchen." Jiang Ciyou's heart suddenly surged with a strong sense of joy, and she asked eagerly: "Really? Do you know where he is?" The other party said: "I'm not sure where he is exactly, but I heard that he appeared in a small seaside town recently." Jiang Ciyou's heart was full of hope, and she hurriedly asked: "Where is that town?" The other party said: "I don't know too much, I just heard it. But you can go and ask, maybe you can find him." Jiang Ciyou said gratefully: "Thank you, if you have more clues, please let me know." The other party said: "Okay, good luck."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ciyou's heart was filled with hope. She decided to go to the seaside town to look for Lu Jingchen immediately. She didn't know where the town was, nor did she know if she could find him, but she was willing to try. She believed that as long as there was a glimmer of hope, she couldn't give up.
Jiang Ciyou quickly packed her luggage and left the hotel. She went to the airport and bought the nearest flight ticket to the seaside town where Lu Jingchen might be. On the plane, Jiang Ciyou's mood was very complicated. She was full of hope and worry. She hoped to find Lu Jingchen in that town, but she was worried that this was just a false clue, which made her fall into despair again.
After several hours of flying, Jiang Ciyou finally arrived at a seaside city. She didn't know where the town was, so she could only ask around. She asked the airport staff, taxi drivers, and local residents, but no one knew the exact location of the town. Jiang Ciyou felt a little disappointed, but she didn't give up. She decided to keep looking until she found Lu Jingchen.
Jiang Ciyou ran around in this seaside city, her face full of fatigue and anxiety. She didn't know how much she had walked and how many people she had asked, but she still couldn't find any clues about the town. She began to doubt whether her decision was correct, and she didn't know if she could still hold on.
Just when Jiang Ciyou felt desperate, she suddenly saw a travel billboard. The picture on the billboard was a beautiful seaside town, and the familiar scenery moved her heart. She carefully looked at the introduction on the billboard and found that this town was the place she had been looking for. Jiang Ciyou's heart was filled with joy, and she immediately followed the instructions on the billboard and headed to the town.
After some twists and turns, Jiang Ciyou finally arrived at the seaside town. She walked on the streets of the town, feeling the peaceful atmosphere and the sea breeze. Her heart was full of expectations, and she hoped to find Lu Jingchen here.
Jiang Ciyou looked for Lu Jingchen everywhere. She asked the residents, shop owners, and hotel staff in the town, but no one had seen Lu Jingchen. Jiang Ciyou was filled with disappointment. She didn't know how long she could hold on. She began to doubt whether the clue was correct. She didn't know if she could still find Lu Jingchen.
Just when Jiang Ciyou felt desperate, she suddenly saw a familiar figure. The figure was walking alone on the beach by the sea. A strong sense of joy surged in Jiang Ciyou's heart, and she immediately ran towards the figure. When she got closer, she found that the person was Lu Jingchen.
Jiang Ciyou was so excited that she almost cried. She threw herself into Lu Jingchen's arms and said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have left you." Lu Jingchen hugged Jiang Ciyou tightly and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as you come back."
They spent a few wonderful days in a seaside town, watching the sunrise and sunset together, strolling on the beach together, and enjoying each other's company. They knew that their relationship had become stronger after so many twists and turns. They decided to start over and face the challenges and difficulties in the future together. They believed that as long as they truly loved each other, they would be able to create a happy life that belonged to them.
