I had dinner very late today and didn't finish it until ten o'clock in the evening.
There was very little food and wine left on the table, and the whole family stopped eating and just chatted.
Everyone in the team also knew that this family must have had a lot to talk about before they parted, so they dispersed early after dinner.
Chu Xuan and Zhou Wenqiong are leaving tomorrow, and the family seems to have endless things to talk about at this moment.
The family chatted endlessly in the restaurant, but they did not say farewell, only talking about interesting things from the past.
"You don't know, when we were filming "Sword and Sword", these two guys kissed and hugged each other." Liu Xiaoli told Zhou Wenqiong about the past, and she clapped her hands and laughed: "I said eh? Aren't these two people embarrassed?
Why are you so skilled in those intimate movements? There’s something wrong!”
Zhou Wenqiong covered her mouth and smiled, looking at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei with a joking look.
The young couple was a little embarrassed, but looking back on the good times, they both smiled.
"Is this how you found out?" Zhou Wenqiong wiped her mouth with paper.
Liu Xiaoli nodded and turned to look at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei: "These two guys didn't care about my feelings at that time. They were very brave to fall in love under my nose."
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other, each looking cheerful.
Zhou Wenqiong had never heard the story of this family's past. It was really interesting to hear it today. As she wiped her mouth, she saw Chu Xuan picking up the last prawn on the plate and preparing to eat it. She couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Xuan is still hungry?"
"No." Chu Xuan shook his head, peeling shrimps in his hand: "Eat and have fun."
Liu Yifei watched the shrimps in Chu Xuan's hands being slowly peeled by him. When the shrimp lines were removed and ready to be eaten, Liu Yifei stretched out her hands and hugged Chu Xuan's arms, leaned on Chu Xuan's shoulders and said, "I want to eat."
Chu Xuan stopped peeling the shrimp with both hands, and immediately fed the white and tender shrimp meat to Liu Yifei. Liu Yifei opened her lips slightly and only took a small bite of half of it.
Chu Xuan put the remaining half of the shrimp meat into his mouth and wiped his hands with a paper towel on the table.
This naked show of affection made Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong shake their heads.
Liu Xiaoli looked at the time on her watch and realized that it was already late, so she said, "Get some rest, it's very late."
Hearing her mother's words, Liu Yifei frowned, with a hint of pleading in her tone: "Let's talk some more."
Liu Xiaoli stood up and made a motion to put away the plate, but her daughter's plea made her move.
She and Zhou Wenqiong looked at each other, with helplessness and love in their eyes.
If Sissi hadn't been begging her, this meal would have ended an hour or two ago.
They also knew that the reason why Qian Qian behaved like this was because Chu Xuan was leaving tomorrow.
On this occasion of parting, Sissi had the attitude of staying with Chu Xuan as long as she could.
However, Chu Xuan has to take a car to the airport early tomorrow morning. It is already very late and he should have a good rest.
"Go to sleep, we are going to see off Xiaoxuan and your aunt tomorrow." Liu Xiaoli said softly.
Hearing what her mother said, Liu Yifei sighed inwardly, blinked, and nodded with some melancholy in her eyes.
She and Chu Xuan got up, said good night to their mother and aunt, and then walked upstairs.
Seeing that the family had finished their meal, two assistants came over to help Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong clean up and wash the dishes.
After everything was tidied up, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Jess and Caitlin did the final security work and walked around the yard before going back to their bedrooms.
After some time, the lights in the bedrooms on the third floor of the villa were turned off one after another, and the entire house completely merged into the silent night.
As the moon climbed higher in the sky, in the middle of the night at an unknown hour, in the bedroom where I could hardly see my fingers, two breathing sounds were intertwined, but the breathing sounds were not as even as in normal sleep.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei hugged each other, both of them closed their eyes and seemed to have fallen asleep.
However, both of them knew that the other was not asleep yet.
Maybe we have to say goodbye tomorrow, and each of us feels reluctant to leave and cannot sleep peacefully.
"Go to sleep." Chu Xuan whispered.
Liu Yifei didn't speak, she arched into Chu Xuan's arms, and her hands wrapped around Chu Xuan's neck tighter.
When she thought that Chu Xuan was leaving tomorrow, she felt uneasy, and there was always a sense of emptiness and unknown coming towards her.
Facing the uncertainty of the unknown and the discomfort caused by the uncertainty, she felt unspeakable sadness.
She resisted her sleepiness and tried hard to stay awake, just hoping to feel more of the warmth nestled in Chu Xuan's arms, and the familiar sense of worry-free security that this warmth brought her.
Chu Xuan's hand in the quilt moved, and the hand on Liu Yifei's waist was placed on the back of her head, slowly stroking the hair on the back of her head.
Liu Yifei's closed eyes narrowed, enjoying the love and comfort Chu Xuan gave her. When Chu Xuan's hand moved to her back and caressed her, the warmth in it seemed to hold up the sky for her, dispersing
She felt the discomfort and uneasiness that she had predicted due to Chu Xuan leaving.
"Shall we go for a walk?" She opened her eyes, finally unable to bear the thought of passing by Chu Xuan in her sleep when they were parting.
She wanted to spend sober time with Chu Xuan, and she also wanted Chu Xuan to spend more time with her.
Even if it was all night, even if it was only a few hours before Chu Xuan left, she didn't want to waste a single minute.
Chu Xuan opened his eyes and looked at her in the darkness.
In Chu Xuan's eyes, Liu Yifei's eyes fluctuated slightly, revealing strong reluctance and love.
Chu Xuan lowered his head and kissed her lips. After a few seconds, he wanted to separate and reply, but Liu Yifei hugged him tightly.
The lips of the two people met tightly again, wanting to completely release the reluctance they felt before parting.
I don't know how much time passed, but on the path between the villas in the Yi Lai Community, two figures were reflected under the dim street lights.
The two figures were holding hands, occasionally shaking their hands, and one figure would stand on tiptoes to kiss the other figure's face from time to time.
It is a picture that is a little naughty, mixed with a little sadness, interspersed with bursts of love, and very romantic.
"What should I do if I miss me?"
"I'll come over when I have time."
"And you?"
Liu Yifei turned her head to the other side, snorted and said, "I won't miss you, I want to study hard."
Chu Xuan turned his head to look at her, and Liu Yifei turned her head and looked at Chu Xuan, each looking like she couldn't help laughing.
"I won't be able to eat my mother-in-law's food when I go back." Chu Xuan sighed, his mother-in-law's getting better and better cooking skills had already whetted his stomach.
"I'll give you a suggestion." Liu Yifei looked at Chu Xuan, blinked and said, "If you stay, you can eat mother's food every day."
Chu Xuan didn't answer, and Liu Yifei didn't say anything more. They both laughed and said nothing.
Of course Liu Yifei wanted Chu Xuan to stay, but she also knew that this was impossible. What she just said was just a joke. After all, there were so many things in the country that needed Chu Xuan to make decisions and he needed to be at the helm.
Liu Yifei released her tightly held hands, hugged Chu Xuan's arm, and leaned her head on his shoulder.
The two of them didn't speak anymore, they just walked quietly, enjoying the tenderness of each other's existence as they got closer and closer to their separation.
Sometime late at night, the moon began to recede.
The streets of Yi Lai Community are covered with the footsteps of young couples walking back and forth many times.
Apart from the moonlight and street lights, there are only unknown places where two pairs of eyes witness all this and guard the sweetness of spreading love.
Liu Yifei looked up at the sky. The sky was getting brighter, which also indicated that the time for Chu Xuan's departure was getting closer.
Full of separation sorrow, she was slightly uneasy and uncomfortable: "Stay longer..."
She suddenly spoke, but then stopped abruptly.
She wanted to say, "How about staying a few more days?" It was just a few days, and it shouldn't delay anything in the country.
But before she finished speaking, she suppressed the reluctance in her heart and did not embarrass Chu Xuan.
Hearing the word "stay with me", Chu Xuan also knew what Liu Yifei wanted to say, but seeing Liu Yifei stop again, he couldn't help but feel moved and pity in his heart.
Chu Xuan pulled his arms away from Liu Yifei's arms, put his arms around her waist and held her tightly in his arms. Liu Yifei leaned against his neck.
"I have been reading books and looking at information in the past two months. I passed the interview and written test in June. I should be almost done with "Nirvana in Fire" in July. Then I will come back to film and play. I will be apart for two months at most." Chu Xuan
said.
Liu Yifei nodded slightly and said "hmm" softly.
"Go back." Chu Xuan saw that the sky was getting brighter, and it was time to go back and get his luggage to prepare for departure.
Even though Liu Yifei was reluctant to give up, she didn't force anything more and walked home with Chu Xuan.
When Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong heard the news that they had been walking outside all night, they looked at each other and then couldn't laugh or cry.
"It's quite romantic." Zhou Wenqiong commented on the behavior of the two children with a smile.
The luggage had been packed yesterday, and when the team members helped to carry it down, the group of people went out together.
Under the arrangements of Jess and Caitlin, everyone got in the car and headed to New York International Airport.
Along the way, in the eyes of Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei did not speak a word, only holding hands tightly expressed the attachment in their hearts.
Maybe it was because of tiredness, maybe because they didn’t know what to say, or maybe because they had said everything they wanted to say while walking late at night, so the young couple was very silent at this moment.
After almost two hours of journey, the group successfully arrived at several venues, got off the bus and walked towards the terminal.
The assistant bought the tickets in advance, and there was still more than an hour before the flight took off. Chu Xuan and the others only needed to go to the lounge and wait.
"Auntie, please go back." Under a load-bearing pillar in front of the terminal, Chu Xuan asked Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei to go back first.
Before Liu Xiaoli could speak, Liu Yifei expressed her thoughts: "I want to see you get on the plane."
Her eyes were firm, but actually she wanted to stay with Chu Xuan for a while longer.
Liu Xiaoli was dumbfounded, looked at Chu Xuan, and then at her daughter, letting the two children decide for themselves.
Chu Xuan opened his mouth and looked at Liu Yifei's resolute eyes. He laughed for a moment.
Chu Xuan also felt very sad. After all, the girl in front of him was the one he loved most. Even though they would only be separated for two months, in his opinion, this would be a very sad time.
He also wanted to stay with Liu Yifei for a while, but he knew in his heart that the more this happened, the more uncomfortable it would be when they got on the plane to say goodbye.
"Go back, I haven't slept yet. Go back and have a good rest. I'll call you when I get back to China." He held back his reluctance and comforted Liu Yifei.
"I don't." Liu Yifei stood up in front of Chu Xuan and looked directly at Chu Xuan, very stubborn.
When she heard Chu Xuan asked her to go back again, she blinked her eyebrows, her trembling eyelashes indicating the coming tears.
Seeing her like this, Chu Xuan felt even more uncomfortable, and gently held her in his arms: "Don't cry."
Liu Yifei nodded in Chu Xuan's arms and said with a choked tone: "If you don't cry, you'll be ugly if you cry."
Chu Xuan was startled and laughed dumbly: "Whether it is Zhao Ling'er or Xiao Longnu, the moment when you cry is always the most touching moment for you. You should be self-aware of this. Ugliness does not exist."
Liu Yifei smiled brightly and raised her head in his arms. There were some tears on her eyelashes, but she was strong enough not to fall.
Chu Xuan looked down at her. After looking at each other for a while, he held back his reluctance and said, "Go back, good boy. I'm tired too. I just want to rest in the lounge for a while."
"Let's go." Liu Xiaoli took a step forward and said. She also understood what Chu Xuan meant. If he is so difficult to leave, it will only make it more uncomfortable.
Liu Yifei said nothing this time, left Chu Xuan's arms, and held the hand handed over by her mother.
"Then you have a safe journey. When you arrive, please call us to make sure we are safe." Liu Xiaoli said.
Chu Xuan and Zhou Wenqiong nodded, and Zhou Wenqiong said: "Go back, I will come to you when I have time, or you can come to Los Angeles to play with me."
Liu Yifei nodded repeatedly and waved her hand: "Goodbye, aunt."
She looked at Chu Xuan again, with a sweet smile on her lips and a thumbs up.
The corners of Chu Xuan's mouth were slightly raised, his eyes were full of softness, and he also gave a thumbs up.
"Let's go." Liu Xiaoli pulled Liu Yifei around and left slowly under the protection of Jess and Caitlin.
"Go up and have a rest." Zhou Wenqiong said to Chu Xuan, turned around and walked into the terminal.
Chu Xuan nodded and followed with the returning team members.
One goes out, the other goes in.
Just halfway through, Liu Yifei in the square and Chu Xuan in the terminal turned around at the same time.
The two looked at each other in the distance and smiled slightly.
Liu Yifei suddenly bulged her eyes and pointed in a direction.
Chu Xuan couldn't see clearly, but Xu had telepathy, which allowed him to understand Liu Yifei's meaning: "Go to the lounge to rest quickly, or I won't leave."
Chu Xuan turned around and continued walking. After about ten steps, he turned back again. Liu Yifei was still looking at him from her position in the square.
Seeing him turn around, Liu Yifei put her hands on her hips and bulged her eyes, as if to say: "You are not good."
The corners of Chu Xuan's lips gradually turned upward, and he turned around and went upstairs, heading towards the lounge.
When he arrived at the lounge, Chu Xuan immediately walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. He had a strong feeling that Liu Yifei might have expected him to come here.
As expected, Liu Yifei did not move around in the square, but looked up at the window of the lounge. But when she saw Chu Xuan approaching, she quirked her eyebrows and waved to Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan waved in response. The next moment, under his gaze, Liu Yifei put her hands together, then put her hands on her cheeks, tilted her head slightly, and made a cute "good baby, take a rest soon"
action.
Chu Xuan nodded gently, turned and left.
Liu Yifei held her mother's hand and turned to leave.
After almost ten seconds, Liu Yifei suddenly looked back, only to find that Chu Xuan had returned to the window again, as if watching her leave.
Seeing this scene, Liu Yifei first smiled softly, and then she turned sullen and glared angrily, as if to say: "You are so disobedient!"
Chu Xuan couldn't help but laugh. He imitated Liu Yifei's actions just now and made a "good baby, take a rest quickly" look, then turned around and disappeared in front of the window.
Liu Yifei squinted her eyes with satisfaction on her face.
Liu Xiaoli looked at the two children interacting in the air and shook her head in her heart. At the same time, she felt very loving and warm.
Ahead is a corner at the edge of the square. Once you pass this corner, you will no longer be able to see the terminal building.
Liu Yifei stopped before turning the corner and counted silently in her heart: "10, 9, 8, 7..."
Counting silently to 1, she turned back to look at the lounge on the second floor of the terminal.
However, the floor-to-ceiling windows in the lounge were empty, and Chu Xuan did not come again.
Liu Yifei's heart felt empty for a moment, and the suppressed feeling of reluctance could no longer be suppressed. Her nose became sore, and tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes.
Dear, I'm sorry, I can't do it.
She promised Chu Xuan not to cry, but she found that the strength she thought she had in her heart was far from equal to her love for Chu Xuan.
No longer seeing Chu Xuan's figure made her seem to have lost the source of her strength, just like flowers losing watering and birds losing freedom.
After several years of getting along day and night, her dependence on Chu Xuan has become more and more profound. She has also noticed it in her past life, and she also expressed her feelings in this regard in previous interviews.
But at the moment of separation, she truly understood that Chu Xuan had long been indispensable in her life, and it was deeply rooted in her heart and unshakable.
Chu Xuan told her that he hoped she would become an independent and strong woman, which was also her pursuit and dream.
Isn’t this the purpose of my trip to the United States for further study?
"So, Liu Yifei, you have to work hard! You have to be strong! The temporary separation is just for the next beautiful reunion and for a better future." Liu Yifei cheered herself up in her heart and held her hands tightly.
Suddenly a gentle hand touched her shoulder, Liu Yifei turned her head and looked at her mother, whose eyes were full of encouragement.
The warming sunshine in New York hit her face, and the wet tears shone brightly. The beautiful girl smiled brightly: "Mom, go home."
The mother and daughter took steps again, turned and walked towards the parking area outside the square.
What they didn't know was that in the second-floor lounge of the terminal building a hundred and eighty meters away, Chu Xuan's figure appeared silently in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the mother and daughter disappear into the street.
He just peeked at the scene of Liu Yifei crying in the corner of another window. He felt extremely sad, but he murmured to himself with blessing and encouragement: "Come on."
