Chapter 574: After Modification: Chapter 572 - Till We Meet Again, Seas Have Changed to Mulberry Fields (Part 2)

Lin Yixun couldn’t figure out who had come here to pay respects to her parents. There weren’t many people in T City who were familiar with her parents, and even fewer who knew about them. It actually wouldn’t be difficult to discover who that person was.

Just then, she suddenly heard a voice, both strange and familiar, coming from not far away.

Her heart trembled involuntarily. Following the direction of the voice, she saw a tall man standing under a pine tree, about ten meters away.

The man had his back to her, but that back, that figure, was unmistakable at a glance.

Ouyang Hao, this man etched into her bones and soul. Despite being only ten meters apart, it felt as though there were vast distances between them.

It wasn’t hard for her to guess that the person who had come to pay respects to her parents was Ouyang Hao.

When her parents passed away, she and Ouyang Hao had already separated. She didn’t know how Ouyang Hao knew where her parents were buried, but with his influence, it wouldn’t have been difficult to find out.

What she couldn’t have imagined was that Ouyang Hao would actually come to pay his respects to her parents periodically.

Why did he do this? After she had ended things so decisively with him, why would he still come here?

Looking at his tall figure, Lin Yixun felt a deep ache in her heart.

He should have forgotten the past, forgotten everything related to her.

Ouyang Hao, with his back still turned, was on the phone and hadn’t noticed her.

The call was from Mrs. Ouyang, complaining about why he couldn’t spend the weekend with them in the capital, instead of flying back to T City.

Of course, that wasn’t the main reason for her call. Mrs. Ouyang was mainly upset because Ouyang Hao had missed his future fiancée’s birthday party.

A few days ago, Ouyang Hao had agreed to a blind date in the capital. To Mrs. Ouyang’s surprise, her picky son had fallen in love at first sight, and the next day, he confirmed their relationship.

Mrs. Ouyang was naturally overjoyed. It happened that the girl’s birthday was in a few days, and her family had organized a birthday party to celebrate.

Mrs. Ouyang, eager for grandchildren, hoped for her son’s relationship to develop quickly. She had pinned her hopes on the birthday party to make Ouyang Hao’s relationship public. But to her dismay, he flew to T City on the day of the party, making her furious.

"Can’t you go to T City a day later? Nian Nian was so upset not seeing you; you’re not a very good boyfriend, are you?"

"Mom, I had things to do in T City."

"Things to do? What’s more important than winning over your future wife?"

"These things take time; we can’t rush them." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"No rush? You’re already in your thirties; how can I not be anxious? Your brother is like this, and so are you. I’m half in the grave already; don’t you think I’m anxious?"

Ouyang Hao couldn’t stand his mother talking like this. "Mom, I have things to handle here. I’ll talk to you later."

Without waiting for her reply, he hurriedly hung up the phone.

Putting his phone away, Ouyang Hao turned to leave, but his gaze inevitably drifted towards the two tombstones not far away.

His eyes darkened. He had learned about the deaths of Lin’s mother and Father Lin through the news, coming here on the day of their burial but staying hidden in a discreet corner.

He had seen Lin Yixun’s grief but could do nothing. At that moment, he was so powerless, so heartbroken.

But was he any less pitiful now?

The person he loved most was gone, her body never found. He couldn’t erect a gravestone for her, could only mourn her through her parents. Wasn’t that a misery and a joke?

Ouyang Hao bitterly curled his lips, slowly retracting his gaze, but in the next moment, his eyes froze.

He stared intently at the two tombstones not far away. Just now, there had been only one bouquet in front of them, but after one phone call, there were now two bouquets.
