I ignored the two aunts and other people in the living room who looked over with complicated eyes.
Chu Li rushed all the way to the hall door, grabbed the car keys and rushed out of the door.
In a moment, the car sped along and rushed out of the Chu family gate.
Along the way, while driving the car towards the apartment building, the corners of her lips were always raised.
This time, she finally no longer has to worry about her identity. She can finally have a real love like all girls.
She grabbed the phone and wanted to call Shang Li. After thinking about it, she put the phone down.
There were some things she wanted to say to him face to face.
She wanted to look him in the eyes, apologize to him, tell him her struggles, tell him how much she liked him and how reluctant she was to let him go.
Noticing a famous breakfast shop on the roadside, Chu Li stopped the car.
She pulled the mask and put it on her face, covering her face. She stood in front of the counter and queued up to buy two of the store's classic breakfasts.
When she came out with breakfast, she was still smiling.
This breakfast can be regarded as compensation for him. I hope he won't be angry.
After getting back into the car, she quickly drove back to the apartment and went upstairs with breakfast.
After stepping out of the elevator, she turned around and walked a few steps toward Shang Li's room, then stopped.
He turned around, hurriedly returned to his apartment, and rushed into the bedroom cloakroom.
Running her fingers over the women's clothing, she took off her favorite newly bought dress that she had not yet worn, put it on, sat in front of the mirror, and put on makeup carefully.
She stroked her short hair and pursed her lips.
Unfortunately, my hair was cut short.
However, it will grow back in just a few months.
When her hair grows longer, she should be able to wear women's clothing blatantly, right?
When the time comes, she will definitely take him for a nice shopping trip, like all ordinary girls.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Chu Li mentioned breakfast and came to Shang Li's apartment again.
He raised his right hand and knocked on his door.
Dang Dang Dang!
Inside the door, there was no response.
Isn't that guy still sleeping in?
You promised to prepare breakfast and wait for her?
Chu Li smiled and increased his strength.
Dang Dang Dang!
Inside the door, there was still no response.
With an ominous premonition rising in his heart, Chu Li knocked on the door again.
"Sixth brother...Shang Li, open the door!"
Inside the door, it was so quiet that there was no sound.
Chu Li's heart tightened inexplicably.
Taking out her cell phone, she frowned and dialed Shang Li's number, then put the phone to her ear.

Imperial Capital Airport, inside the international flight security checkpoint.
The assistant raised his wrist to check the time, and his eyes fell on Shang Li, who was standing by the window not far away.
"Sir, we should board the plane, otherwise it will be too late."
Shang Li looked away from the plane outside the window and turned around.
I don't know why, but my assistant intuitively told me that Shang Li was a little different today.
In the assistant's impression, this man was always smiling and the expression in his eyes was always a bit cynical.
It seems that there is never anything in this world that he really cares about, and there is nothing worth staying for.
But today Shang Li seems a little depressed.
"Do you have anything else to do?"
Shang Li pursed his lips and shook his head.
"Let's go."
The assistant followed him and frowned.
He must be overthinking it. After following Shang Li for several years, when had he ever seen this man sentimental?
The two walked into the plane together and took their first-class seats.
The phone vibrates slightly.
Shang Li hurriedly took out his cell phone from his pocket.
Not the call or message he imagined, but an advertising message.
"Sorry sir, please put your phone in airplane mode."
Next to me, the flight attendant reminded me politely.
Shang Li unlocked his phone and called up Chu Li's number. His fingertips paused on the dial button for a few seconds before finally moving his finger away.
Since Chu Li didn't choose to be with him, he should respect her decision.
In my heart, I feel lost.
But Shang Li understood very well that some things cannot be done without force.
Chu Li has her own difficulties, so he shouldn't force her.
Raising his hand, he tapped the screen to bring the aircraft out of flight mode.
After a moment, the plane slid onto the runway and slowly flew high into the sky.
Shang Li glanced sideways, staring at this familiar city, his brows furrowed little by little.
Ever since he was little, he has never been able to get whatever he wanted.
Even two hours ago, he was confident that Chu Li would knock on his door.
It seems that he is still too conceited.
In her heart, he is far less important.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable."
In my ears, my phone reminded me again.
Chu Li lowered his right hand and glanced at the darkened phone screen.
He raised his right hand and knocked on the door hard.
"Shang Li, open the door!"
Inside the door, it was still quiet.
He must be angry.
Maybe, he has already left.
Turning around, Chu Li rushed into the elevator on high heels and pressed the button hurriedly.
When the elevator went down, she rushed out, got into the car and started.
The car drove out of the apartment complex and rushed to the apartment where Shang Li was promoted.
Parking the car at the door of the hospital building, Chu Li forgot to bring a mask and rushed in all the way.
The elevator was full, so she turned around and rushed up the stairs.
Panting all the way to the cardiac surgery ward, Chu Li saw a nurse coming over, and Chu Li grabbed her.
"Excuse me, Shang... is Director Shang here?"
The nurse looked at her in surprise and shook her head.
"Sorry, I don't know."
"Thank you!" Chu Li turned around, ran all the way to the office of cardiac surgeon Shang Li, and knocked on the door hard.
Across the way, the door to another office opened and a doctor came out.
Seeing how hurried Chu Li was, he just thought the other person was a patient or a patient's family member, and took the initiative to come over and explain.
"Hello, Director Shang is not here today, what can I do for you?"
"He...where did he go?"
"He went abroad."
"Going abroad?"
"Yes, I heard there is something urgent at home."
"Then...when will he come back?"
"We don't know much about this. If you are a patient's family member, you can contact Director Li..."
Before the other party could finish speaking, Chu Li had already turned around and rushed towards the exit.
She was in a hurry as she drove all the way to the airport.
He rushed into the airport and came to the information desk. After consulting the staff, Chu Li quickly rushed to the international flight boarding area.
"Shang Li, Shang Li..."
She called his name loudly, but the miracle didn't happen.
There were tourists all around who looked at her curiously, but the person she was most looking forward to was not there.
That morning, Chu Li searched the entire airport but could not find Shang Li.
I called Shang Li countless times but got only one result.
"Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be connected."
When I came out of the airport dejectedly, I noticed the figure reflected in the exit.
Chu Li stopped.
Her shadow was reflected in the bright metal mirror.
The girl is wearing a skirt and looks young and beautiful, but her hair is a little shorter.
This was her first time wearing women's clothing in public.
Turning around and walking out of the airport step by step, Chu Li returned to the car and sat in the driver's seat, finally unable to hold back his tears.
Before, she had always thought that it would not be a big deal even if there was no Shang Li.
Now, when she lost him, she realized how important this man was to her.
