'Boom...' A thunderous sound seemed to shake the whole city, followed by heavy raindrops, slapping the retro-style windows fiercely, and the ancient mahogany window frames looked like they were soaked in blood.
Generally, delicate and red.
There was a young woman standing by the window. If it weren't for the steaming cup in her hand, the whole picture would have looked like an oil painting. The woman was wearing a lake-green dress with a cinched waist, and her slim figure was leaning against the window, as hazy as if she came from
In a dream.
Her slightly curly long hair was scattered on her back, with only one strand hanging on her chest, giving her a unique charm. Her delicate facial features were projected on the window, and the low raindrops were like tears hanging on her face, making her look sad and beautiful.
And restrained.
It's September again. In September three years ago, Qin Qing became Xiang Chubei's 'wife'. Now in September, she is already thirty years old, but she is still waiting for his return.
Qin Qing's eyes glanced at the military report on the table. He was coming back. After three years of advanced officer training in Scotland, he returned with excellent results and his military rank was promoted again.
Looking at the strange yet familiar handsome face in the newspaper, Qin Qing couldn't help but sigh: Ah Chu, why do we count every time we have a cold war in years?
"Xiaoqing, it's time to eat!"
"Mom." Qin Qing turned around with a smile and looked at the thermos bucket in her mother's hand: "They say you don't have to go to such trouble to bring food. You can also eat in the school cafeteria."
"The stew at home is good for your health, eat it quickly!"
Su Qingqiu looked at the newspaper on Qin Qing's desk, coughed lightly, and then went to sit down at the desk opposite her. Xiang Chubei came back, she didn't know what her daughter would do?
Three years ago, when everyone thought Qin Qing had accepted the job at the Asra Research Institute, Qin Qing did not leave, but chose to stay. But when she learned that Xiang Chubei had gone to Scotland quietly
, when there was not even a message, she chose to return to the south to teach.
"Xiaoqing, he..."
"Mom, I want to resign!" Qin Qing didn't dare to look up.
Three years ago, when she came home and was scolded by her mother, Qin's mother held her and cried bitterly, telling her to never leave her parents again! Even if the whole world didn't want her, they would not despise her and would tolerate her.
her!
"You want to find him?" Su Qingqiu was surprised.
Qin Qing nodded: "Mom, it was Achu who pampered me and tolerated me in the past, but I squandered his patience and accommodation again and again. This time, I want to get him back. Mom, in the past three years, I have been the only one I have known.
What is clear enough is that I love him, very much!"
"You..." Su Qingqiu frowned.
"I'm sorry, Mom, I can't live without Ah Chu!"
Faced with her daughter's insistence, Su Qingqiu couldn't refuse. She knew that Qin Qing had become really sensible in the past three years. If she had to give it a try, why didn't she support it? If Qin Qing really loved Xiang Chu
North, then they can be happy.
"Okay, take care of yourself and don't worry about your family!"
Qin Qing nodded, thinking excitedly, Ah Chu, if possible, I am willing to exchange everything I have for you!
It was already October when Qin Qing completed the resignation procedures. She went to City B alone without bringing anything with her. She thought it would be a good idea to let go of the old and start everything over again.
It was Wu Yuxuan who took the opportunity for Qin Qing to return to City B. Wu Yuxuan basically guessed the purpose of her return at this time.
"I have bad news to tell you!" Wu Yuxuan held the steering wheel with a solemn expression.
Qin Qing smiled and said indifferently: "Did my resume be rejected by University B? Isn't it possible?"
"No, your job is settled. You teach quantum physics at University B. Your students also really want to meet you. Li Mingming is studying for a Ph.D., and the project is going smoothly. Now it's at the last moment..."
"Wu Yuxuan, there's no need to do so much foreshadowing. Just tell me what the bad news is."
"Song Ziyu is pregnant!"
"This is a good thing, why is it bad news?"
Wu Yuxuan pursed his lips and looked at Qin Qing: "She came back with Xiang Chubei!"
Qin Qing's smile froze on her face, and she didn't know how to react for a moment. She just looked ahead dullly. If she thought Xiang Chubei's love for her for more than twenty years was a bargaining chip before, what about now?
"perhaps……"
"Song Ziyu goes to Xiang's house almost every day." Wu Yuxuan stopped Qin Qing's thoughts.
"Wu Yuxuan, actually you can put it more tactfully." Qin Qing closed her eyes and smiled bitterly, all illusions were shattered.
Wu Yuxuan looked at her and sighed: "Qin Qing?"
"I'm fine!"
"I do not believe!"
"What can you do if you don't believe me?" Qin Qing pursed her lips and looked ahead: "I've already been here, why should I just go back empty-handed? I want to see him, even if it's just in the name of friends. After all, we,
It’s a childhood sweetheart… a bamboo horse…”
Wu Yuxuan looked over, and Qin Qing raised her hands to cover her face. Tears kept pouring out from between her fingers. Wu Yuxuan could understand the feeling of having a dream shattered. Just like him two years ago, he went south full of hope, but was beaten by her.
He scolded and rushed back.
"Maybe...I can go and congratulate him?" Qin Qing laughed at herself and took out a tissue to wipe away her tears.
"Actually, you don't have no leverage at all. You can..."
"I don't!" Qin Qing knew what he wanted to say and flatly refused: "This is just a matter between me and A Chu!"
Wu Yuxuan didn't want to discuss this topic anymore, so he asked: "How many days will I send you to stay at my place?"
"Send me to the hotel. I will apply for a dormitory from the school after I report to school!"
"Don't think of me so badly!" Wu Yuxuan was dissatisfied.
He had no other intentions. Why had she been wary of him like a thief? If he hadn't called Aunt Su in advance to know she was coming to city B this time, she probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to contact him.
"It's not that I think you are so bad, but..." Qin Qing looked out the window and said casually: "You are not a good person to begin with."
"Hey..." Wu Yuxuan was very hurt.
Wasn't it just that one day three years ago, she came to him to ask for help, and happened to meet him flirting with a certain supermodel sister. He didn't do anything, he just hugged his sister and said some wild words!
Wu Yuxuan never dared to force Qin Qing, so he had to send her to the hotel and order a dinner for her. Then, he completed his mission and left alone.
Qin Qing came out of the shower, wiped her hair and called home.
"Mom, I'm here, don't worry."
"Okay, remember to eat, eat well, and don't treat your body badly." Qin's mother warned, and then said: "Your dad took Xiaobao to take a bath and will call you later."
"Okay, don't let Xiaobao play in the water for too long. He always likes to get tired of being in the water recently."
"I know, you take care of yourself outside!"
Qin Qing turned on the TV and sat down in front of it to eat dinner. News was being broadcast on the TV, saying that the newly appointed lieutenant general would visit the military training parade of freshmen at various universities in city b.
