Can We Say No to Divorce?

Chapter 854 - 604: Extra—Be Good and Listen

This evening in summer, it was still raining, with a drizzle falling gently; the Martyr Cemetery was solemn and somber.

Qiao Xiaoyan buried Bai Ye beside Bai Ye’s grave, looking at the freshly covered tomb, she cried out loud.

Bai Ye, now Da Bai has come to keep you company! You won’t be lonely anymore, right!

As Qiao Xiaoyan cried, she seemed to vaguely see Bai Ye’s shadow again.

Unknowingly, she fainted and someone approached her, yet she wasn’t aware.

Bai Ye carried her away from the grave and took her to a hotel in the town, disguised so no one would recognize him as Bai Ye anymore.

He followed her all the way to City G, watching her bury Da Bai beside him, seeing her cry as if she were made of tears, how could he not appear?

He wanted to, like Song Xuyao said, ignore it!

But he couldn’t!

Whenever he saw her so sad, so helpless, with no one beside her, he felt his heart twist with pain, constantly twisting.

How could he leave her in disregard?

How could he let her wallow in despair while he remained aloof?

Therefore, after she fainted, he brought her back to the town’s hotel.

Holding her in his arms, over a year of being undercover, dreaming every day of seeing Qiao Xiaoyan again; yet, even though he knew it was just a dream, with these dreams, work felt less like suffering.

Because he had a future worth looking forward to.

At this moment, with Qiao Xiaoyan in his arms, he could truly feel he was still alive.

Qiao Xiaoyan had a very long dream; she dreamed she saw Bai Ye at the cemetery, dressed in a white casual shirt, poised like a jade tree, approaching her, so real.

She didn’t even dare to make a sound, fearing that any sound would disrupt such a dream.

She watched him come, his brows still holding a sunny smile; in the rainy cemetery, his smile was her greatest comfort.

He took her to the hotel in the town, where they had so many memories.

"Xiaoyan, do you miss me?" Bai Ye asked her.

"Miss..." Qiao Xiaoyan nodded directly.

Bai Ye stroked her hair, "I miss you too, very much, very much..."

"But, if you miss me, why haven’t you come into my dreams even once?" Qiao Xiaoyan looked at him, "Do you know? Bai Ye, though I am an atheist, I still want to see you..."

Bai Ye knew, she thought he had returned as a ghost!

Bai Ye chuckled softly, "If I can come back, I’ll never leave again, we’ll be together, okay?"

"Ah..." Qiao Xiaoyan was evidently surprised by his words, "Is this a love between a human and a ghost?"

Bai Ye smiled indulgently, "Whatever you say it is!"

Qiao Xiaoyan was also very happy, yet she looked frankly at Bai Ye, "Da Bai, I know I’m dreaming, but I still want to tell you, I’m sorry..."

"What happened?" Bai Ye gazed at her.

Qiao Xiaoyan looked into his loving eyes, quietly saying, "Something happened between me and Song Xuyao..."

Bai Ye was stunned, he couldn’t believe this.

Could it be that day on the big stone, when he punched Song Xuyao and Song Xuyao didn’t fight back, was out of a guilty conscience?

No wonder...

Qiao Xiaoyan saw he hadn’t spoken for a while, "Do you mind? I think you do, right? No man wouldn’t mind..."

Bai Ye extended his finger, "Shh!"

He signaled her not to continue!

He had thought about this issue long ago after he died and she was with someone else; he even thought that as long as that man treated her well, he would silently guard her all his life!

Just, he never imagined that Qiao Xiaoyan would actually be with Song Xuyao...

But the best part was, they had broken up!

"I am a man, I say I don’t mind these!" Bai Ye gazed at her, "I care more about you, Xiaoyan, truly..."

"Da Bai..." Qiao Xiaoyan’s face was full of tears, "Even in my dreams, you comfort me like this, how can you be so good? How can you..."

She reached out to tap his shoulder, then fell into his embrace...

...

Waking up early the next day.

Qiao Xiaoyan found herself sleeping in the hotel, her dream still so vivid.

She gave a bitter laugh, then got up to wash her face and brush her teeth; since she had come to the town, she would meet with Song Ziyu.

She arranged to have breakfast with Song Ziyu, seeing the changes in the town, she felt happy for Song Ziyu.

Qiao Xiaoyan roamed the town all day, but she had to return to City A in the evening.

Song Ziyu tried to persuade her to stay: "Stay one more night, we’ve not seen each other for a long time, let’s chat tonight!"

Qiao Xiaoyan did not refuse, so she stayed.

...

City A.

Song Xuyao was called into the director’s office, "Have you contacted our colleague?"

"Did something happen?" Song Xuyao asked.

The director said, "There was an explosion at the Europe District Police Station. From surveillance cameras, we saw someone sneak in and plant a bomb. Also, there was someone who fought with this stranger, saying he was a zombie..."

Song Xuyao frowned, "I heard from our colleague that someone who joined an organization said they were wrongfully imprisoned, could it be revenge against the police?"

The director agreed, "You need to contact our colleague immediately, first to find out the cause, and also to ensure safety."

"Yes!" Song Xuyao immediately went to contact Bai Ye, but he waited at the big stone for a long time, and Bai Ye never showed up.

He was startled, Qiao Xiaoyan had not returned, Qiao Xiaoyan went to City G, could Bai Ye also have gone there?

Song Xuyao immediately called Qiao Xiaoyan, but she did not answer his call at all.

Qiao Xiaoyan was chatting with Song Ziyu, and Song Ziyu keenly noticed that it was Song Xuyao’s number calling, "Is my cousin looking for you?"

"Ignore him!" Qiao Xiaoyan said.

"What’s wrong? Did you quarrel?" Song Ziyu asked with concern.

Qiao Xiaoyan replied calmly, "Don’t mention him, it’s annoying! Nowadays, everyone’s talking about having a second child, are you planning to have one too?"

"Hahaha..." Song Ziyu laughed, waving her phone, "He’s calling my phone now!"

Song Ziyu answered the call: "Song sir, what do you need from me?"

"Is Xiaoyan with you?" Song Xuyao asked her.

"Song sir, she’s with me, but she doesn’t want to talk to you!" Song Ziyu replied bluntly.

Song Xuyao hurriedly said, "Give her the phone, let her listen, I have something urgent to tell her!"

Song Ziyu turned on the speaker, Qiao Xiaoyan shook her head, "I’m not listening!"

Song Xuyao quickly said, "Xiaoyan, listen to me! Can you come back now, please?"

"I won’t come back tonight," Qiao Xiaoyan said, "I took leave from Brother Rui, you’re not my boss, and I have nothing to say to you."

Song Xuyao sighed softly: "Be good, please listen, okay?"

He had never spoken to her with such a tender tone before, but Qiao Xiaoyan’s heart had already frozen, and no matter what he said, she wasn’t listening.

"Xiaoyan, you know I’m not good with words, nor am I good at sweet-talking." Song Xuyao continued emotionally, "We have a very tricky case, and we all need you. Can you come back?"

Qiao Xiaoyan wasn’t stupid: "If I’m truly needed, wouldn’t Brother Rui contact me?"

"Everyone said it was my fault you left in anger, so it’s right for me to call and apologize," Song Xuyao was very anxious, "Please, come back and work. Work comes first, okay?"

Qiao Xiaoyan was a bit moved, she was a soft-hearted person, especially when it came to work.

"I’ll think about it!" she said.

Song Xuyao immediately said, "I’ll wait for your answer!"

Qiao Xiaoyan picked up her phone and called Situ Rui, "Brother Rui, is the case really tricky?"

"No," Situ Rui felt her silence after he spoke, then quickly changed his tone, "Yes, yes! We just encountered a very tricky case... please come back quickly!"

Qiao Xiaoyan said softly, "Brother Rui, you’re also teaming up with him to deceive me!"

"Xiaoyan, I..." Situ Rui tried to explain, but Qiao Xiaoyan had already hung up.

Situ Rui immediately called Song Xuyao: "Did you say something to Xiaoyan? She just called me."

"Did you slip up?" Song Xuyao realized that with this slip, she probably wouldn’t come back tonight.

He immediately went to request a helicopter and headed to City G.

...

City G.

Qiao Xiaoyan couldn’t help but cry in front of Song Ziyu, "Why did he lie to me like this?"

Song Ziyu hugged her, letting Qiao Xiaoyan cry. Sometimes you have to cry, feel hurt, be wounded, love and hate, and then keep moving forward.

"I don’t want to be sad, but for some reason, my heart always hurts..." Qiao Xiaoyan said, "I don’t want to care, but I can’t help it..."

Qiao Xiaoyan cried, her sobbing uncontrollable: "After Bai Ye left, I indulged myself for a while. When he left, it felt like he took my soul with him, so the remaining body didn’t matter, but, but with him..."

Song Ziyu gently patted her back, "Bai Ye’s departure is an unbearable pain for anyone, being with someone else doesn’t matter, Xiaoyan, don’t blame yourself like this, I think Bai Ye wouldn’t want to blame you, either..."

"You know, Ziyu, last night Bai Ye was in my dream..." Qiao Xiaoyan’s tears flowed like rain, "He’s still so handsome and sunny. I really hope he’s living well in another world, so I will also cherish myself. I won’t ruin myself anymore, I’m putting my heart into Song Xuyao..."

Song Ziyu nodded, "Yes, Xiaoyan, live your own life well, that’s what Bai Ye wanted to see, and what all of us hope for too! Stop crying! Anyone who cares about you will be heartbroken seeing you like this!"

As the two were talking, they heard the sound of a helicopter landing outside.
