The old man was asleep and it wasn't convenient to disturb him, so Qiao Xiaoni and Su Chenhao didn't say goodbye and rode their bicycles back home. They'd already said their farewells beforehand, and he wouldn't mind if they left first when he woke up.
On the road.
Qiao Xiaoni looked at the road in the distance: "I'm leaving by car tomorrow, and I'm so reluctant to go."
Su Chenhao stopped the car: "Let's walk for a while, anyway we'll be going back late today."
Qiao Xiaoni nodded and got out of the car; the two walked side by side.
"Honey, I have a plan in my mind that I haven't told you about yet."
What are your plans?
"I'm thinking that once we get there, we'll rent a bigger house and live together. Then I'll look for a job, and if I can't find a suitable one, I'll do some small business."
"Going door-to-door selling things will be enough to cover your tuition and our food expenses."
"So you had already thought this through, but I didn't want you to be so tired. Besides, you have such a brilliant future ahead of you."
"That life without you is something from a past life to me. I just want to live a good life with you, even if it's just simple food and drink, I'm only happy when I'm with you."
"You're quite the talker. Well then, let's get this straight: you must tell me what kind of business you want to do."
"Don't forget I have my spatial ability; maybe I can even help! I don't care about money, as long as I have enough to live on. The most important thing is to enjoy life, because you really don't know what will happen next." Qiao Xiaoni expressed her feelings.
Su Chenhao's smile vanished. Life is fleeting, only a few decades; they might part ways in the blink of an eye. As time passed, his feelings for her deepened. He even had a thought that if Qiao Xiaoni were gone, he would have no reason to exist.
Although this idea may seem naive to outsiders, it is a genuine thought in his heart.
Seeing that his expression was off, Qiao Xiaoni stopped her bicycle, walked up to him, and asked, "What's wrong? Did you remember something again?"
Su Chenhao threw his bicycle aside, grabbed Qiao Xiaoni, and began kissing her passionately. Before they knew it, they had rolled onto the grass.
...
After an unknown amount of time, the two rolled over and lay on their backs, their clothes disheveled, which was enough to tell what had just happened.
Qiao Xiaoni sat up and buttoned up her clothes: "What was wrong with you just now? What were you thinking about?"
Su Chenhao sat up and put his arm around her as they watched the sunset: "You just said that you didn't know what would happen next, and that made you suddenly feel bad."
Because I don't want to be separated from you. I don't know what life would be like without you.
If you had never appeared in my life, perhaps I would have lived my life just like that. But then you walked into it.
Qiao Xiaoni was very touched: "I was just saying it casually. Don't you think we're in good health and can live for decades without any problem?"
What you're thinking about now is completely unfounded worry. You can think about it when you're old!
"Okay, I won't overthink it anymore." Su Chenhao hugged Qiao Xiaoni tightly. Both of them were covered in grass roots, and it was the first time they had ever been so disheveled.
He almost did it; he regained his senses at the last moment and didn't manage to take the final step.
As Qiao Xiaoni gazed at the setting sun in the distance, her past life became increasingly blurry in her memory, as if it had happened in a previous life.
