Analyze the facts, clarify the conjecture, prove the intention, and write poems
Xue Jiuyue was very surprised. "What? Have you figured it out? Our agreement is just a certificate. There's no need to fulfill it. You don't need to worry about it."
"No, no, I, I have to tell you that I am no longer qualified to pursue you."
"You've returned to your family? This is good news. Congratulations, congratulations!" Although Xue Jiuyue congratulated him, she still found it unbelievable that they were remarried so soon?
"No, that's not the case!" Qian Jianjun lowered his head and voice with full of guilt, "I met another girl..."
"So Mr. Qian has found a new love. That's right, it fits in with your usual style of being fickle!..." Strictly speaking, it had little to do with Xue Jiuyue, but Xue Jiuyue still couldn't help but speak sharply.
But before she could finish, Qian Jianjun interrupted her anxiously, "It's not what you think."
"Oh? It's okay. I didn't think anything of it. It has nothing to do with me."
"No, yes, yes, oh, I can't explain it clearly, I, I..." Qian Jianjun's mind was already a mess, and now he was at a loss for words. He just looked at Xue Jiuyue helplessly, bitterly, and aggrieved.
Xue Jiuyue looked at the pair of eyes that were once bright and lively, now not only bloodshot but also covered with a layer of mist, as if there was something else hidden. She couldn't help but feel sympathy, "Don't be impatient, talk slowly, I'm listening."
"Are we still friends?" Qian Jianjun asked first.
“As of now!”
Qian Jianjun felt a pang of heartache, but he sobered up a bit. "I did something wrong, and I blame myself. I may not be worthy of being your friend anymore, but can you promise me that no matter what you hear, you will keep it a secret for me and don't mention it to anyone, including Qiu Nian, Keke, and the others."
"Whether we are friends or not, you have been very kind to me. I promise to keep it a secret for you."
"OK, thanks……"
Next, Qian Jianjun described to Xue Jiuyue everything that had happened in the past two days.
Xue Jiuyue pondered for a long time, and finally uttered a few words, "I finally understand!"
"Do you understand?" Qian Jianjun was still confused.
"Mr. Qian, could you please tell me your evaluation of Gu Quyu first? Please don't include personal feelings. Just give an objective evaluation based on work."
Qian Jianjun thought for a moment and gave an eight-character comment: "Smart, capable, and meticulous!"
"Can I understand that she is very smart and very meticulous in her work?"
"Yes, this is not just my evaluation of her. The company employees nicknamed her 'Female Gongjin', and Mr. Qiu also admires her."
"That's right!" Xue Jiuyue further confirmed her judgment and explained to Qian Jianjun: "Such a smart girl, why would she come to my shop to chat with me and reveal her true identity?"
Qian Jianjun, who was not in good shape, still looked confused.
"Mr. Qian, why did you go to talk to Gu Quyu the day before yesterday?"
"Oh, yes! Because she came to talk to you, you guessed that she is an employee of my company, right?"
"Ever since my shop started seeing more customers, I've been vaguely suspecting you were secretly fanning the flames. That was until that day when Gu Quyu came to the shop specifically to chat with me, and intentionally or unintentionally confirmed the truth for me!"
"You mean, she deliberately revealed my plan to you?"
"It's more than that! If that's all, then it could be that she likes you and is afraid that your behavior will make me fall in love and eventually steal your favor."
"What else could be the purpose?"
"Mr. Qian, if I had only revealed the plan, I wouldn't necessarily have told you that it was her who was behind it. I could have guessed it myself. If I had only revealed the plan, how would I have exposed her relationship with your wife?"
Xue Jiuyue still used the term "wife," but Qian Jianjun didn't notice. "Is this intentional?"
"What did Mr. Qian think when he found out that Gu Quyu was your wife's cousin? Was he extremely disgusted with your wife's behavior?"
"Yes, it feels unforgivable."
"I don't know if this was your wife's original intention, but Gu Quyu used me to tell you, probably to make you hate your wife even more. Because from the beginning, she clearly knew that your wife was the mountain that stood between her and you! Whether from a moral, public opinion, or emotional perspective, this is true. If I'm not mistaken, she originally hoped to use me to completely bury your marriage. But when she found out how much you had done for me, she began to hesitate, fearing that I would be tempted, so she temporarily changed her plan and planned to interfere and thoroughly slander your wife once again, which was like killing two birds with one stone."
Qian Jianjun remained silent on all of Xue Jiuyue's comments about Mei Rugu. The pain in his heart was causing the meridians in his left arm to twitch. He didn't try to understand or understand the source of the pain, but instead quickly turned his attention back to Gu Quyu. "Could this be just our hindsight analysis? Could she have let something slip in a fit of impulsiveness?"
"If I remember correctly, Mr. Qian just said that she is smart, capable, and meticulous."
"Yes, she is like this at work. Is it possible that she will be completely different when facing love? Look at how I am now, isn't that a living example?" Qian Jianjun said self-deprecatingly.
"Okay, let's not discuss her original intention for now. Let's just talk about your experience yesterday. Going to the university campus to spend a day with her must have been her plan for a long time."
"Isn't this a bit arbitrary? She asked me to fulfill a wish about 20 days ago. She hadn't thought about it yet at that time. I think it was more of a temporary idea." Qian Jianjun still tried his best to help Gu Quyu excuse herself.
"I remember Mr. Qian told me before that he graduated from Xialin University. Did your wife also graduate from that school?" In fact, Xue Jiuyue knew that Mei Rugu also graduated from Xialin University, and it was Mei Rugu who told her in person, but she also promised Mei Rugu not to mention it in front of Qian Jianjun.
"Hmm..." Qian Jianjun gave the simplest answer.
"On the one hand, Gu Quyu is trying hard to destroy your relationship so that she can take your place; on the other hand, she also wants to use your relationship to achieve her own success. Because that must be the purest and sweetest part of your heart, so she asked to spend a day with you on campus, so that you can relive the romance of the past, but the heroine has become her, Gu Quyu."
Seeing Qian Jianjun still looking skeptical, Xue Jiuyue added, "You said she wrote two poems, one 'South China Tiger' which you liked, and one you wrote yourself. So how did Ms. Qian know about this? Even if 'South China Tiger' was a coincidence, have you ever published the one you wrote yourself?"
"No, not really. When I wrote that poem, I was just a freshman in college, full of energy and ambition. Even now, I've never considered publishing. I've always believed that my writing is for myself or for friends, and it's the purest place in my heart. Once published, it will be constrained by money and other people's aesthetic standards. I don't want my work to be judged by the world."
When he mentioned that the words had indeed touched Qian Jianjun's soul, he immediately ignored other issues. His subsequent words also aroused strong agreement from Xue Jiuyue. The two of them had a highly consistent view on the words, but Xue Jiuyue was not paying attention to this aspect at the moment. "Yes, then how did Gu Quyu know?"
"I showed it to her cousin when we were in love, maybe..." Qian Jianjun still tried his best not to mention or think about Mei Rugu.
"Even so, it would take a lot of effort to memorize it word for word! What do you think, Mr. Qian? Can you rewrite all the poems you wrote yesterday?"
Qian Jianjun recalled yesterday's poems and wrote them out from memory, handing them to Xue Jiuyue. Although they had just happened yesterday and half of them were original, he still hesitated before putting pen to paper, and was still unsure about the word choice in some places.
Xue Jiuyue read the poems silently and then asked, "Mr. Qian, is this the only poem of yours your wife has read? Why did Gu Quyu write this one?"
"This isn't the only piece I wrote when I was young. I wrote many more pieces I'm even prouder of." His confidence in Gu Quyu had begun to waver during the time he was reciting the poem. "Are you saying Xiaoyu deliberately wrote this piece?"
"Don't you think poetry is particularly romantic, like a harmonious couple?" In fact, Mei Rugu also talked about this with Xue Jiuyue that night.
"Yes, this is the romance that is exclusive to me from the period of dating to marriage." Qian Jianjun answered with bitterness.
From the outset, Gu Quyu's poetry is designed to guide your thoughts in her intended direction. She begins by offering you beautiful aspirations, perhaps allowing you to revisit your original aspirations. Then, through "South China Tiger," she points out your current caged state. Finally, through your own poetry, she tells you to rediscover the youthful spirit and bravely pursue freedom. And this freedom is the beauty we've been guided to build together."
"No, that's impossible..." Qian Jianjun was so shocked that he was speechless. He stammered for a long time, "I wrote the poem at the beginning first, and she wrote it on the spot with the same rhyme. It's impossible for her to think so much."
"As long as you prepare the elements in advance and change a few words according to your rhyme, it's not difficult. Why don't we try it on the spot? Can you please write a random poem?"
Qian Jianjun was filled with sorrow and confusion at this time. Although his words were not expressive enough, he still managed to write a poem:
As the night falls, the returnees return, their shadows sink in the wind; the flowing water and the flowers have intentions, but the rippling moon has no intentions.
Xue Jiuyue praised after reading it: "Good poem!"
She lowered her head to think for a moment, then picked up a pen and wrote quickly on the white paper.
Soon Qian Jianjun saw Xue Jiuyue's beautiful handwriting: "
The clouds are light and the sun is warm, the branches are full of red flowers; the ears are shyly conveying feelings, the flowers have no feelings for me but I do.
There is a beauty in Qinlou, and five horses came from afar to sink; Luqi seeks the phoenix's affection, and the shenghuang plays the jade heart.
Qian Jianjun had always known Xue Jiuyue was a master of poetry, but he had never seen her write. Seeing her today, her profound poetic skills were evident. Each poem, while preserving the original mood, changed only a few words or altered the order, resulting in a well-balanced rhythm and rhythm. The last two lines, in particular, draw on the story of Duke Mu of Qin's daughter, Nanyue, playing the sheng, inviting Xiao Shi to play the xiao, resulting in their marriage and mutual immortality. This parallels Sima Xiangru's pursuit of Zhuo Wenjun by playing "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" on the Luqiqin. The shifting of the reed (yellow) against the green is a delicate and remarkable feat.
"Look, it only took a few words to agree with you. Of course, Gu Quyu's ability to quickly and neatly revise it is quite impressive."
"Then I had a conflict with someone while playing basketball. It was just an accident after all..." Once his confidence was shaken, Qian Jianjun, who had been in the business world for a long time and was accustomed to the intrigues, did not dare to think further.
"She knows you very well. She always likes to take the responsibility on herself. That's why she laid the groundwork layer by layer for the natural and brief encounter and the final passionate kiss." Xue Jiuyue felt a pang of sadness for no reason when she said this. She suppressed her emotions and continued to analyze: "This kiss is to make you confused between responsibility and love, so that you can make a choice. Of course, all of this is just inference, there is no evidence."
