Song Qiluo took two sips of coffee and asked in a low voice.
"Sis, when are we going to church tomorrow?"
Their mother was a Christian, so every time the two sisters came to Tokyo, they would go to St. Mary's Church to donate money and listen to lectures to pray for their mother in heaven.
Song Lingshan seemed a little absent-minded. "Let's do it at noon."
It has been more than a month since I last saw Su Luo, and I haven't tried to find out anything about him.
A few nights ago, she couldn't resist and scrolled through Su Luo's WeChat Moments to see what he had been up to lately.
One flip was fine, but the flip almost made me furious.
I was discovered to have been blocked or deleted by Su Luola, and I can no longer see her Moments.
Will he truly be happy if he leaves me?
Is the money I spent on gifts for him enough? He probably won't sell the Nanjing lock I gave him; he'll have to find a new job again.
With the current poor job market, his social anxiety, and weak personality, even if he finds a new job, he'll probably still be bullied by his colleagues just like before.
So, is this the life he wants?
In the future, when he faces difficult times in his life, will he really not think of me, and will he really not regret leaving me?
Looking at her sister's somber eyes, Song Qiluo asked, puzzled.
"Sis, what are you thinking about?"
She had already arranged for her sister to be discharged from the hospital ahead of time, as she had requested, and even brought her to Tokyo to relax. Why was her sister still unhappy?
Is she still thinking about that bastard Su Luo? Seriously? Are all the men in the world dead? What's so great about that guy anyway?
Song Lingshan let out a heavy sigh.
"nothing."
Forget it, Su Luo has changed. He's not the person she remembers anymore. He's just an ungrateful bastard now.
She no longer wanted to be like those foolish women in romance novels, secretly protecting their exes even after a breakup and doing silly things that were beneath them.
To be honest, she wasn't that noble. She didn't want him to leave her and live a good, happy life.
She actually hoped he would suffer a bit, then come back to her like a defeated dog, begging her to come back to him.
That scene must be very interesting.
...
Nighttime.
Su Luo sat motionless, leaning against the headboard, staring at her phone and text messages.
Squeak.
The door was pushed open.
As soon as Ozawa Nami entered the room, she saw Su Luo staring at her phone screen with a dejected expression and asked worriedly.
"What's wrong?"
Su Luo raised her head and forced a smile.
"Xiao Tian isn't coming."
He clearly said a few days ago that he would definitely come, and with his wedding tomorrow, he suddenly sent a message saying he wasn't coming.
They didn't even give him any mental preparation. Aren't they best brothers?
Why did you change your mind so easily after promising him something?
Ozawa Nami sat down next to Su Luo and asked gently, "What's the reason?"
Actually, she had guessed that Ye Xiaotian might not come, because when Su Luo went missing last time, she called Ye Xiaotian and felt that he seemed a little out of his mind.
Su Luo gritted her teeth, her tone filled with resentment and grievance.
"He said he was busy, but I know he's lying to me. He... he's not that busy at all..."
Nami Ozawa comforted her.
“What if he really is busy? Didn’t you say he would have to manage a lot of things after inheriting the family business?”
She really couldn't bear to tell Su Luo her suspicions, after all, Su Luo truly considered her a good brother.
Su Luo lowered her head, looking dejected.
"You have a lot to manage, but don't you even have a single day to spare?"
He never had parents, and subconsciously he had come to regard Ye Xiaotian as family, not just as a friend.
He was getting married, and he would only get married once in his life. This was the kind of occasion when he needed his family the most, but Ye Xiaotian didn't come.
Does he think that since he's moving to Tokyo, he doesn't want to be brothers with me anymore?
Is it about distancing oneself, abandoning oneself?
"?!?!"
Su Luo's reaction completely exceeded Ozawa Nami's expectations, it seems that Ye Xiaotian really holds a high position in Su Luo's heart.
For a moment, Ozawa Nami didn't know how to comfort her.
After thinking it over, he took the initiative to lean in and kiss Su Luoyan's red lips.
Su Luo stared wide-eyed, completely bewildered as to why Ozawa Nami would do such a thing.
Su Luo then closed her eyes, no longer thinking about Ye Xiaotian.
Much later.
Su Luo lay on his back on the bed, taking small puffs of his cigarette.
Exhale smoke rings of varying sizes.
Nami Ozawa asked gently.
Are you feeling better?
"Hmm, much better."
Su Luo reached out and tapped the cigarette ash into the ashtray on the bedside table.
Nami Ozawa smiled and said, "That's good."
Su Luo was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked.
Do you think there might be any unexpected events tomorrow?
For some reason, Su Luo always felt that coming to Tokyo was like a dream, and she was afraid that she would suddenly wake up from the dream.
Has Song Lingshan really let go of her past? What if she finds out I'm getting married and suddenly shows up?
Nami Ozawa said firmly.
"No, don't worry."
The couple didn't plan on having a big wedding, which saved them from many complicated procedures.
Su Luo is an orphan with no parents.
His father was gone, and his mother was still in China.
Because her mother was unhappy with Su Luo, she refused to attend her wedding, leaving Ozawa Nami with no choice but to compromise.
She couldn't break up with Su Luo just because her mother didn't like him; she knew all along that in her mother's heart, she was far less important than money.
Since her mother doesn't care about her, she doesn't need to worry about her anymore; she just needs to send her money on time.
"That's good."
Finished a cigarette.
Su Luo leaned closer to Ozawa Nami, turned to the side, put his arm around her slender waist, and asked the question he had always wanted to ask.
"Honey, why do you insist on having our wedding in a church?"
He has always been a materialist, not believing in ghosts or gods, and naturally not in any religion.
Having known Nami Ozawa for so long, he hadn't discovered that she was a Christian, so he didn't understand why she insisted on having her wedding in a church.
"Because it's very romantic, and I think most people with faith are kind people. You know our relationship isn't blessed by many people, so I hope to receive the blessing of church members, even if they are strangers."
