Looking at the man with a clear face and a cold expression at the door, his eyebrows and eyes are still the same as before, with slightly sharper edges and corners, so he seemed a little difficult to approach.
The cup in Su Qiuge’s hand fell to the ground.
The sound of the glass breaking was abrupt, and the scene in front of her seemed to be as fragmented as the glass. Memories of the past few years flooded into her mind like a flood of gold.
Su Qiuge once thought about the scene when she met him again.
During the first period of time, she comforted herself that they would meet up as soon as the college entrance examination was over.
Later, when the university started, she thought that maybe she just had to wait a little longer, and she would be able to see him after a while.
After a year or two, she didn’t think about it anymore, because she changed her phone card and her location. She was deliberately avoiding this question. Obviously, she could try to find him, but she kept shrinking away from it.
She tried to live in her comfort zone.
Because she didn’t even dare to imagine what the former boy would become after such a long period of time.
Time could dilute feelings, no matter how affectionate, nearly four years was a hurdle.
She wasn’t sure if they could cross over, and she didn’t even dare to approach because she was too concerned about being disappointed, so she put all the things with his traces into the cardboard box.
After all, so much time had passed that even the love they had in the past may have faded away.
She was plain on the surface, but in her heart, she had been wandering between giving up and hoping.
The more she deliberately avoided something, the more she cared about it, and the more she dare not mention it, the more deadly it was.
The voice of the waiter brought her back to her thoughts, “Sorry, we didn’t know you reserved this box…”
Feeling the man’s gaze on her, Su Qiuge’s heart was full of emotions, and finally, she rushed out with her head down.
When she walked out, she silently passed him by, but he didn’t hold her.
When she got to the bathroom, she took a deep breath in the mirror and told herself a fact.
He is back.
Just when she thought maybe they were going to separate, he came back again.
She thought she would come forward to hug him excitedly, and then hit him while crying and asked——
It’s been so long, where have you been?
Do you know that you violated our promise back then?
But she was afraid.
She wondered if they could go back to the past.
Since she started preparing for the internship, she rented a house next to the school.
On the way back in her taxi, someone called her.
She took a deep breath and connected.
Han Ming’s voice came from over there, “Brother Xing is back.”
Su Qiuge closed her eyes and said softly, “I saw him.”
Han Ming was silent for a while. He had seen with his own eyes how Su Qiuge got here before the college entrance examination.
Xie Xinglin was a person who can never explain, and he was even less willing to tell others about his suffering.
The gap between the two of them was not just the nearly four years, but also the pain and suffering after separation.
“Little Su, I told you before that after Brother Xing’s father passed away, his mother married a well-known real estate agent in our circle, named Fu Cheng.”
“Fu Cheng was injured when he went out to do business in his early years, and his physical function was hindered. He had a son and a daughter with his ex-wife, but the son died because of his weak bones. Zhao Xuening, a woman who has no other skills, can make the men she marries fall in love with her completely. Brother Xing’s father is like this, and so is Fu Cheng, and they haven’t given birth to a son since they married, so Zhao Xuening came up with Brother Xing.”
“We couldn’t get in touch with him a while ago. I think there must be a reason. Both Zhao Xuening and Fu Cheng are not good people. They can do everything. They are probably even more ruthless to Brother Xing. I know he wronged you, but why don’t you calm down and talk to him?”
Su Qiuge stared down at her knees and said softly, “Haven’t you never seen him? How do you know he still likes me?”
The words of anxious explanation on the other side stopped suddenly at this moment.
She closed her eyes and said with a little anger, “We all think that the other party is very strange now. You haven’t seen him for so long, don’t you also feel strange?”
Han Ming didn’t seem to expect her to say that. He clenched his fist slightly, but then he remembered that he also learned about Xie Xinglin’s return from someone else.
He didn’t tell anyone.
Even Han Ming didn’t know when he would come back.
What exactly was Xie Xinglin thinking?
·
That meeting seemed to be just an accident, and he never appeared again.
At the end of the semester, community activities are celebrated, and everyone had to go out to eat together.
Su Qiuge would not have participated in this kind of activity, but her classmates in the club sincerely invited her to go several times.
“Senior sister, you have really worked hard. You are busy with the internship while taking care of the work of the club. I think we should thank you the most.”
Su Qiuge’s eyes fell on the wine glass, she stared at it for a while, and then slowly smiled.
“You’re welcome, this is what I should do.”
She raised her glass and drank it down.
The spicy and bitter taste overflowed on the tip of her tongue, but she didn’t even frown and directly drank it with her head raised.
The rest cheered.
“As expected of a senior sister, you are so proud.”
“I want to come and have a drink with senior sister!”
“Come, come, everyone, let’s drink, today I treat you!”
