But later I heard that she went abroad not long after, and that first love in her student days came to an end.
"What's wrong? Are you married?" Gao Qi asked curiously.
"What kind of marriage? I'm back home. Someone called me earlier and asked for your number. I have a feeling they have bad intentions, Lao Gao. I want to rekindle our relationship."
Gao Qi: "..."
Thinking of those unfamiliar numbers, could they be Sun Ailin's?
"Hello, hello? Are you listening?"
"Listen, don't talk nonsense."
"Look how scared you are. I was wondering if you've been lucky in love recently. The butterflies are flying towards you, but not a single one is flying towards me." Zhang Biao was envious. Lao Gao, who had been quiet for many years, was beginning to let himself go.
"It happened so many years ago, why are you still scared? I guess he just wants to get together." Gao Qi guessed that those things that happened back then were just the impulse of adolescence.
Zhang Biao let out a long sigh, "Lao Gao, if you go on a date, be careful not to start any rumors."
"Get lost."
After hanging up the phone, Gao Qi took a sip of water and saw the red phone number. Should he call it back?
Forget it, don’t cause any trouble.
But the phone rang at this time, and it was that number again. Gao Qi couldn't help but think of a face in his mind. He had a strong sense of responsibility and was a little stubborn. He was going to chase him for several blocks because he didn't hand in the homework. Is it really that necessary?
As the call was connected, Gao Qi didn't say anything, as if he was trying to confirm whether it was her.
"Hello, is this Gao Qi?" The familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from the phone. This long-lost feeling made Gao Qi a little confused. At that time, they were really on a date. Although they didn't show their cards, it was no different from a showdown.
And it felt like an ex-girlfriend calling after eight years.
"Sun Ailin?"
"How do you know it's me?" Sun Ailin on the other end of the phone laughed, thinking that Gao Qi still had her in his heart. No, no, he should still remember her voice.
Gao Qi explained with a smile: "Biaozi just called me and told me you were coming back. I guessed it."
After hearing this, Sun Ailin thought to herself that she was overthinking. It turned out that it was Zhang Biao who told him. She thought Gao Qi still remembered her.
For a moment, both of them fell silent, not knowing where to start.
Do we have to start from the unfinished date eight years ago?
It seems a bit unrealistic.
"Are you returning to China for tourism or something else?" Gao Qi asked, breaking the silence between the two.
"Oh, work."
"oh."
This way of chatting is a bit awkward.
Sun Ailin pursed her red lips, took a deep breath, and asked, "Are you free now? Is it convenient for us to meet?"
Meet?
What if you are photographed by paparazzi? They will talk nonsense, but will you refuse?
I'm not willing to accept this. At least I should ask him why he suddenly went abroad that year. He didn't even tell me. It's so irresponsible.
"OK."
"Come under the bridge across from the school."
Speaking of the bridge, it was a great place for dates back then, especially at night when there was no one around. Couples would sit by the river, acting sneaky like thieves.
"Yeah, about twenty minutes."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
After hanging up the phone, Gao Qi took a taxi. He wondered if it would be like what Zhang Biao said. Judging from the way he spoke just now, it seemed a bit similar.
Should I forgive her for leaving without saying goodbye?
This is a problem.
Before reaching the bridge, Gao Qi got off the car and chose to walk across.
It was almost ten o'clock and there were basically no people around. It was almost autumn and the riverside was getting cooler.
Gradually, Gao Qi saw a dark shadow standing on the steps under the bridge, seemingly skipping stones on the water.
Having not seen each other for such a long time, Gao Qi felt mixed emotions, lamenting the cruelty of fate.
Sun Ailin, who was throwing stones, felt someone coming around her. She knew who it was without thinking. In fact, she came back for work, but she also chose to come back to work in order to find him.
But when I saw the news, I found out that he actually had a girlfriend, and she was the well-known Song Shishi. At this moment, I was extremely conflicted.
I hesitated for a few days before deciding to meet him.
"So boring." Gao Qi walked over and said with a smile.
Sun Ailin turned her head to look at Gao Qi. Although it was a little dark, she could still see Gao Qi's appearance clearly. Compared to when he was in school, Gao Qi was now much stronger and taller, but the smile on his face was still the same, and he looked quite handsome.
Gao Qi was also looking at Sun Ailin. Her previous short hair had now become long, slightly curly hair, and her appearance had also changed. Her face seemed more three-dimensional, and her delicate facial features made her even more attractive, and her red lips looked particularly sexy.
Her outfit today is also extremely sexy. She wears a professional women's shirt tucked into a black miniskirt, and her chest is so prominent that it seems as if it is about to burst through the buttons.
Oh my god, I remember it wasn’t this big when I was in school.
And under the black miniskirt is a pair of super sexy black legs. Could it be that Zhang Biao guessed it right and that he had bad intentions?
"If you look at me like that, be careful that your girlfriend won't get jealous." Sun Ailin blushed a little when Gao Qi looked at her, and couldn't help but remind him.
Gao Qi coughed twice and joked, "It can't be helped. Men's nature dominates their thinking."
"That's a good way to pass the buck."
The two smiled and looked at the calm river surface, feeling that everything had changed.
"Why did you leave suddenly back then?" Gao Qi still asked this question. This was the deepest question hidden in his heart.
Sun Ailin felt a little happy after hearing this, which showed that Gao Qi still cared about him: "My dad was in the hospital and his life was in danger. He rushed over."
"Then you could have told me." Gao Qi's tone changed unconsciously.
Sun Ailin lowered her head slightly and said aggrievedly, "After I went there, I realized that I had been deceived. Moreover, my father seemed to know about our relationship and threatened me that I could not contact you, otherwise he would throw you into the river to feed the fish. I was scared and did not dare to contact you."
Gao Qi was stunned when he heard this. Could your father be a bandit leader?
"Then if you come back now, I won't be afraid of being thrown into the river to feed the fish."
"Because I've grown wings."
"That's easy to explain." No, this conversation sounds problematic, as if they are trying to rekindle a past relationship.
How could that be? He just left and wanted to make peace when he came back. Don’t I have any dignity left? Biaozi laughed at me for a whole year and I lost all my face. I didn’t want to have a relationship in high school.
Seeing that Gao Qi was still very angry, Sun Ailin didn't know what to do and suddenly forgot the countermeasures she had thought of before.
"How have you been these years?" Sun Ailin asked softly.
He put his hands in his pockets and replied calmly, "It's still the same, just muddling through."
If it were my old self, I would definitely correct his attitude and be a positive person, but now I am not qualified to advise him on what to do.
