She worked as Gu Chengyuan's stand-in for three years.
The contract clearly states - "Party B shall not have any emotional dependence on Party A beyond the scope of the contract." She signed her name, thinking that she would be able to escape unscathed if she kept her heart.
She learned to cook his favorite dishes, took care of him late at night when he was drunk, and pretended not to hear when he called other people's names. She saved a refrigerator full of dinners that he had not eaten, painted more than a hundred osmanthus trees, and counted down the days until the contract expired in the memo on her mobile phone.
Until she found out that she was pregnant.
She wanted to tell him. But she stood outside the study door and heard him say: "No one is worthy except Nianwei."
She hid the pregnancy test report in the middle of her diary. Never mentioned again.
Later, she fell down the stairs. The child is gone.
She signed the organ donation agreement, arranged the rest of her grandmother's life, and lay on the operating table on the day the contract expired. And he went to Su Nianwei's cemetery.
Two messages arrived on Gu Chengyuan's mobile phone on the same day - Su Nianwei was found alive in the United States. Lu Wantang's death certificate requires the signature of his family members.
He rummaged through the things she had left behind like crazy. I dug out the diary, the pregnancy test report, the leftovers she had covered with plastic wrap every night, and the last sentence she wrote in the memo——
"Day 1095. Goodbye."
She was a substitute when she was alive. After her death, everyone became her stand-in.
