Life has to go on
Qi Yue, who was determined in her decision, answered Lin Lei.
"No reason, I just don't want to see it. If you think what I said was too harsh or excessive, you can just hit me a couple of times to vent your anger."
Lin Lei gently let go of Qi Yue's wrist: "If I hit you, you might as well take my life."
"How wonderful it would be if you were just you at this moment, but you are not you. You still have your responsibilities and duties. Aren't these the most important to you? Aren't these the things you are struggling with now? If my determination can make you feel more at ease, please don't forgive me. I, Lan Qiyue, am truly selfish."
"Be obedient and go back with your friends. There are many people who love you, and I am not the only one. Your mother loves you very much, and your family needs you. They are all waiting for you."
"So, you, do you need me?"
"Lin Lei, that's not important."
“No, it’s very important to me.”
"But this answer is not allowed to be affirmative. To you, I am just an outsider." Qi Yue looked at Lin Lei again.
The look was complicated, tense, fearful and expectant.
"Lin Lei, don't forget, I am the heroine of my life. Do you think I need it?"
"Yes, you have always been the focus of the crowd. The teachers appreciate you, and your classmates like you. As long as you say you need something, I won't be the only one who reaches out to you."
"You're wrong. This time, I'm also trapped. But I don't want to implicate you, especially you now, because you no longer belong to me. In fact, you never belonged to me.
But I can’t tell you.”
"This time, I won't delete or block you. We are classmates."
"Yueyue, is it really not possible?"
Qi Yue looked at the person in front of her, "Lin Lei, I also want to ask you something, can we?"
"No, take care." After saying that, he stuffed the mosquito repellent into Lin Lei's hand and left without looking back.
The white skirt is so dazzling and so cool under the moonlight.
Men don't shed tears easily, but they do when they are sad. Lin Lei seemed to have shed all his tears on Qi Yue, but it ended in vain again. This chase across more than 600 kilometers was once again sentenced to death.
Qi Yue returned home, stood in front of the window, looked at the vehicles at the entrance of the community, and waited quietly.
Dudu
"Boss, we're home now. I'm not going back tonight. I'm just downstairs from your house. I want to accompany you tonight."
"I will always be with you."
After reading the message, Qi Yue turned around and returned to bed.
"I'm sorry, Lin Lei."
That night, I was alone in the car, feeling grief-stricken; I was alone in the house, feeling heartbroken.
Perhaps this is the best ending.
The next day when she went to work, Qi Yue took a special look at the entrance of the community. It was clean and tidy, just like usual.
Life has to go on.
~~~
Sitting in a daze and meditating silently, Qiyue is still the taciturn Qiyue, the Qiyue who seems to get along well with everyone but is also very unsociable.
Colleague: "Qiyue, what are you looking at?"
"Nothing, it's a nice sunny day today."
Dudu
"Boss, I'm going back to Xinghai today. I'll leave from Mujin and take the noon bus."
"Okay, see you at noon."
After replying the message, Qiyue and the team leader asked for two hours' leave.
"If you don't take it to heart, why would you be so nervous? After all, you're not a stone, you can't stop thinking about it."
I went to the fruit store and bought grapes and cucumbers.
I went to the supermarket and bought snacks, instant noodles and drinks.
I went to the cake shop and bought some bread and small cakes.
I went to the duck goods store and bought some duck goods.
should be enough.
"Yueyue, why are you back so early today?"
"Jiang Yiheng went home today and bought some things. I'll give them to him at the station later."
While talking, Qi Yue sorted out the scattered packages.
"Mom, please help me wash the fruits and vegetables. I'll prepare something else."
Lan's mother took the things that needed washing to the kitchen, washed them, and sorted them into boxes. When she was in school, Lan's mother also made delicious food like this, preparing the specialties of her hometown and asking Qiyue to bring them to school to share with her classmates.
Qi Yue walked to the cabinet and prepared heating pads, mosquito repellent, alcohol wipes, tissues, etc. Even Band-Aids were packed in. In short, she brought everything she needed for the trip.
Qi Yue looked at the two large bags in front of her and said, "That should be enough. This is all I can do."
When Qi Yue arrived at the station by taxi, Lin Lei was sitting obediently at the door. When he saw Qi Yue coming with something, he stood up to take it.
"It's so sunny outside, why don't you go in?"
"You said you would come, I wanted to see you first."
After saying that, Lin Lei took the bag and saw Qi Yue's arm.
"Leader, why are your wrists blue?"
After saying that, Qi Yue looked at her arm and said to Lin Lei, "It's okay."
"It's really magical. If I use a little force, I'll be covered with bruises." Qi Yue thought.
Qi Yue then looked at the entrance and said to Lin Lei, "Go in, don't be late."
"Leader, there's still a while. Let's sit here for a while."
Qi Yue did not refuse, after all, this might be the last time they met.
Qi Yue seemed to remember something: "By the way, take out your phone."
Lin Lei looked at Qi Yue and paused. It was a subtle movement, but Qi Yue saw it.
He slowly took out his phone and handed it to Qiyue: "Qiyue, let him take off the phone case himself."
Then she took out 100 yuan from her bag, folded it three times into a rectangle, put it on the back of the phone, and asked Lin Lei to put the phone case back on.
Lin Lei looked at Qi Yue curiously.
"Electronic products will eventually run out of power. If you get busy with work and forget to charge them and can't find a place to charge them in time, just take it out and you will find your way home."
Lin Lei carefully put away his phone and looked at Qi Yue, as if he had a lot to say. He knew that he couldn't say it because Qi Yue didn't want to listen.
Finally, he mustered up the courage to ask, "Leader, do I still have a chance?"
"Chance, do we have a chance? Unless you are the one who is abandoned, there is no chance."
Qi Yue smiled and said, "This bus is your way home, returning the jade intact to Zhao."
Qi Yue is best at avoiding the topic.
"Leader, what I said is true. You don't have to feel burdened. This is my own business and has nothing to do with you. I just want to know, do I still have a chance?"
Qi Yue looked at Lin Lei who stood up and used his shadow to block the sunlight for Qi Yue: "I still say the same thing, unless you stand in front of me by yourself, with your identity as Lin Lei."
"Then could you wait for me?"
"No, because I'm not her."
"Then I must have it?"
"That's your business, it has nothing to do with me."
"But this is a matter between you and me."
"Lin Lei, you're wrong. From the beginning to the end, this is all your own business. Don't forget your own identity."
"I haven't forgotten, so I'm asking you, can we?"
"I said, absolutely impossible."
Behind the impossibility, Qi Yue understood Lin Lei’s eyes last night. “Fear” is because of the “violation” of the answer you already have in your heart.
This time, Lin Lei made the right bet. Qi Yue really gave Lin Lei the answer he wanted most, which he had realized in his heart.
"Leader, why, why are you so decisive towards me? Don't you think it's cruel?"
"Cruel, you say I'm cruel, but who is stabbing me in the heart now?" Qi Yue looked at Lin Lei expressionlessly.
Time can really change a person.
"Lin Lei, let me ask you this: without you, I am still me, but without you, is she still her?"
Lin Lei remained silent.
Qi Yue smiled.
"See, man, that's all."
No matter how much Qi Yue likes you, she will never give in on matters of principle, not even a single step.
"Come in, I won't see you off, I'm going to work.
After saying that, he turned and left.
Lin Lei shouted at Qi Yue's back, "Leader, wait for me."
"Waiting for you, are you any good? Why should I wait?"
Don't be too confident when you speak, because you will be slapped in the face too quickly.
Qi Yue opened the umbrella in her hand, her hair was blown by the wind, and she waved to the person behind her.
"Let's stop here."
Qi Yue returned to the office and stared at the water cup in front of her in a daze.
Lin Lei's message came from the phone: "Boss, you prepared so many things for me, all of which I like to eat."
Qi Yue did not delete or block the person. Sometimes, returning to the starting point is good for both of us. It is not a big deal. There is no need to stop communicating with each other, which will only make things worse.
"Look at you, I just left for a short while and you haven't replied to my message yet."
"Because my heart is in turmoil and I want to be at peace."
"Leader, please believe me. I will definitely come to you."
"Promises are really the worthless things."
The pause when he took the phone just now was because he was afraid that Qi Yue would look at his phone. What if Qi Yue got angry and directly called Su Li, the scene would not be good. It turns out that you, Lin Lei, are afraid sometimes.
Sometimes Qi Yue also wondered what was so good about a man who wanted it all. To put it bluntly, he was a two-timing man. But people are like this. Even if they know that the other person is not good at all, as long as they think there is one good thing about him, they will turn a blind eye to everything else and deceive themselves.
"Do I like this person, or do I like the me who could hide my love deep in my heart without any scruples and always liked him?"
This is the seventh year of nine years, and we probably won’t see each other again.
~~~
At the end of the year, Qiyue took the subjective test of the bar exam again. Lanmu also accompanied her to Yangbin. After the exam, they wandered around Yangbin for a few days and then returned to their respective posts.
After New Year’s Day, Qiyue received a courier.
A tearable paper calendar card, so magical.
"Leader, have you seen the thing I sent you?" Lin Lei seemed to know that Qi Yue had received the express delivery, and the news was very timely.
"I saw it, but what does it mean? Isn't the calendar on my phone?"
"Leader, you don't understand, isn't it New Year's Day? New Year, new atmosphere. In the new year, you can use this calendar. When you tear off the last pattern on this calendar, I'll give you a surprise."
"What kind of surprise is this? It takes a year." Qi Yue was increasingly unable to understand Lin Lei's train of thought.
Seeing that Qiyue didn't reply, Lin Lei said, "Yueyue, I'm always here. We will definitely be together, and you will definitely be mine."
Qi Yue is no longer surprised by this kind of messages. She just ignores them because once she replies, it will be an endless cycle which is very tiring and time-consuming.
In the following days, Lin Lei was extremely active, jumping around on WeChat every day, and his appearances were comparable to the countless report summaries in the work group.
