Chapter 2268 Shouldn't be so cold to her
The taxi driver increased the speed. Ah Fei closed his eyes and decided to sort out the matters concerning the new project launch conference to kill time on the way.
But as soon as he closed his eyes, the image of Ling Ying crying appeared in front of him.
He helped her with the housework today, and she rushed to the kitchen as soon as she got home. The moment she saw him, her eyes were instantly filled with loss and sadness that was difficult to comfort, and big tears rolled down her eyes.
At that moment, Ah Fei was even a little at a loss.
Looking back now, I seem to understand why she cried.
Judging from the layout of the second bedroom, the man named Qiao Qingze should be a very tidy person.
Did that man often help her tidy up her room when he was alive? So when she saw the tidy house, she thought he was Qiao Qingze?
Ah Fei thought again of the burnt passport with only half a page left.
He opened his eyes, took out his mobile phone, opened the search engine website, and decided to use the simplest and most direct method to find the answer first.
He entered the words "Qiao Qingze" and "air crash" in the search bar and clicked confirm.
Soon, several news pages with these two terms popped up.
Ah Fei clicked on one of the news and carefully read the content.
It was an international flight back to Haicheng. Shortly after takeoff, the plane suddenly lost power and dived straight into the valley, eventually crashing. All 63 passengers and crew members on board were killed, and Qiao Qingze was one of them.
Afterwards, the families of the victims went to the crash site to pay tribute and collect their loved ones' belongings. In one of the news photos, A Fei saw a familiar figure.
That was Ling Ying, although only a profile was shown.
She knelt on the ground, the blood-red sunset shining on her face. She stared blankly at the charred crater created by the plane. In her left hand she held a piece of burnt paper, and in her right hand she held a glass jar filled with something dark and brown.
Through the brief report in the news, A Fei roughly knew the story between her and Qiao Qingze.
They had been secretly in love with each other for many years, until she mustered up the courage to confess her feelings, only to find out that the man had also been secretly in love with her all these years.
After hearing her confession, Qiao Qingze changed his schedule and flew back to China with a happy and joyful mood. He originally wanted to confess his love to her in person...
Unfortunately, there was a plane crash and she could no longer wait for him.
The accident scene was so tragic that the man's body was reduced to ashes in the explosion, and only half of his passport was found.
The glass jar she was holding contained the dirt she had gathered at the crash site. It must have been the same jar that Ah Fei had seen on the bookshelf in the second bedroom...
Ah Fei silently put away his phone and looked out into the dark night.
Before getting on the car, thinking of Aying's departing back, he was still thinking of the classic poem by Tagore.
He thought he finally understood what it meant that "the furthest distance in the world is not between life and death, but when I stand in front of you and you don't know that I love you." At this moment, he no longer thought so.
The furthest distance in the world is obviously between life and death.
Today, less than three years have passed since the tragic plane crash, and this silly girl has obviously not gotten over the pain.
It's because the wound in my heart can't be healed that my life is getting worse and worse...
He doesn't clean his room, doesn't make friends carefully, and even treats himself like a broken jar.
Ah Fei thought about his previous attitude towards Ling Ying and sighed secretly. It seemed that he shouldn't have been so indifferent to her...
Half an hour later, Ah Fei returned home.
Without taking off his coat, he went straight to the second bedroom to see what the girl was like.
However, when he opened the door, he saw a scene that made his blood boil.
She was lying on her side on the bed, her back facing the door, the quilt tucked under her body, the pillow in her arms, her body curled up, obviously very cold.
Because she only had a set of underwear on her body...
Probably because she felt hot after drinking, she took off all her clothes after Ah Fei left. As for where she took them, there was no outer clothing to be found in the room.
Ah Fei pressed his solar plexus, averted his gaze, and wanted to turn around and leave.
But after hesitating for a second, he turned around. She would definitely catch a cold if she slept like this all night, so he decided to cover her with the quilt before leaving.
He came to the bed and tried to pull the quilt out from under her body. However, as soon as he moved the quilt, she turned over, facing Ah Fei, and continued to curl up.
When I turned over, one of the thin straps slipped down my shoulder.
The sharp contrast between her snow-white skin and the black lace fabric made his breathing gradually become tight.
In fact, Ah Fei has always had strong self-control, but that doesn’t mean he is cold.
He also has desires.
Faced with such a situation, the body has reacted instinctively.
He felt his blood heating up and flowing faster, and even some very inappropriate thoughts popped up in his mind.
After realizing that his mind was wandering, he felt frustrated and irritated. He reached out and pressed the switch beside the bed, turning off the corridor light.
If you can't see it, you won't have any random thoughts.
Then he quickly took the pillow out of her arms, put it back in its place, pulled the quilt out from under her and covered her up.
Every movement he made did not touch her body, and after doing all this, a layer of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
I breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave, but I saw her curled up again, sobbing softly, not knowing what she was dreaming about.
Just like a lone little animal, after running blindly for a whole day out of fear, it finally fell exhausted under a big tree and fell asleep.
Her insecure look made him feel pity for her involuntarily.
He sat down beside Ling Ying's bed, wiped her tears, and gently patted her back through the quilt to comfort her from her nightmare.
She finally stopped sobbing, and her breathing gradually became long and steady.
Ah Fei tucked the quilt for her and quietly left the room.
After all this hard work, he felt exhausted both physically and mentally and really wanted to have a good sleep. Of course, the prerequisite was that he didn't suffer from insomnia tonight...
When he passed by the restaurant, he saw a half-empty bottle of whiskey on the wine cabinet, so he sat on the bar stool, picked up a few ice cubes from the ice bucket and put them in the glass, then poured himself a glass.
After drinking a glass of wine, his body gradually warmed up and his spirit relaxed a lot. Taking advantage of his drunken state, he decided to go to sleep on the sofa.
However, as soon as he sat down, he felt the sofa touched strangely, as if it was wet, and then he smelled a strong smell of alcohol. He looked down at the situation on the sofa, closed his eyes, stood up silently, and walked towards the bathroom.
He probably guessed what happened at home after he went to the airport.
After he left, no one knew what the girl was thinking. She suddenly ran to the living room and vomited all over the sofa. She probably vomited all over herself as well. Then she took off her clothes on the spot and went back to her room to sleep.
Ah Fei was feeling sleepy and the lights were dim, so he sat down on the dirty sofa cushion without noticing...
He wanted to go to bed early, but he cleaned the sofa and took a shower. It took him an hour to finish his work, and the sofa was no longer sleepable.
Ah Fei was tired and sleepy, and was also very angry with the girl, so he simply ignored everything else and went straight to sleep in her bedroom. Anyway, she would sleep in the second bedroom tonight, and the master bedroom would be empty anyway.
However, just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard the door of the second bedroom open...
