Chapter 681: Chapter 681: My wife, she has gone on a long journey (1)_1

The second floor was deserted, the entire corridor eerily silent.

Listening to his own footsteps, Zhang Te entered the hallway, walking around ten meters before pushing open a door.

In the lavish and luxurious room, in the back wall’s glass cabinet, there lay an extremely opulent wedding dress.

Sitting directly in front of the wedding dress on a leather sofa was a man.

Even from the doorway, where Zhang Te could only see the back of the man’s head, he recognized him, "Mr. Han?"

Han Jingnian did not respond.

Zhang Te walked a few steps forward to approach Han Jingnian, his lips parting to call out "Mr. Han" again. But before he could, he saw Han Jingnian, leaning back on the sofa, eyes closed in sleep. He instinctively hushed his voice.

Instantly, the room fell quiet as if time had frozen in place.

Zhang Te looked at Han Jingnian’s face as if it had come out of a painting and after a while, he noticed a faint noise in the room.

Zhang Te furrowed his brows. Looking around, he saw that Han Jingnian’s hand was holding a cell phone, from which the faint sound was coming from.

Zhang Te bent over and carefully extracted the phone, only to realize that a short video was playing on its screen.

In the video, a girl in a wedding dress was walking towards the camera from a distance...

The video was very short, but even something this brief made Zhang Te’s throat tightened involuntarily, a sour sensation surging inexplicably in his nose.

Even though it had been more than three months, he could still clearly remember the scene of when the Madam came here to try on the wedding dress. He could clearly remember how bedazzled he had been by her, and how Han Jingnian had obstructed his view with his body, declaring "No peeping" sternly.

Back then, he had joked about how easily Han Jingnian became envious... but who could have predicted, that it would be the last time he’d witness such a scene.

The tragedy that happened three months ago had almost claimed Han Jingnian’s life.

When the yacht exploded, he was stunned at first, and then like a mad man, he fought off everyone, and without any regards, plunged into the deep sea.

When he returned to Beijing, he was unconscious. Xie Lin had exhausted all methods but couldn’t wake him up. It was ultimately Madam Han who brought him back to consciousness.

Upon waking, Han Jingnian, in the eyes of everyone, was no different from the Han Jingnian one year ago. Cold, aloof, always neatly dressed in a suit and busily dealing with various tasks rationally.

However, those who knew Han Jingnian knew that the Han Jingnian who had awakened was not the same as before. After his wife’s incident, he started to sleep less, often staying awake through the night. He acted normally when people were around, so normal that it was frightening. But when he was alone, he would zone out frequently, fixating on one spot for half an hour without blinking...

He might look alive, but in reality, he was no different from being dead. He was Han Jingnian, but a merely a walking dead Han Jingnian.

When he heard people say that Mr. Han was back to being like how he was a year ago after Mrs. Han’s incident, he couldn’t help but wish that Han Jingnian could return to the time before he gave his heart to his wife...

Could someone who has experienced the deepest pain and despair ever return to their past?

Lost in reverie, Zhang Te suddenly noticed a slight movement from the man on the sofa.
