"Are you Ms. Zhao Xue?" the staff at the service center asked with a smile on her face.
"I am..." Zhao Xue's voice trembled slightly due to excitement, and her round eyes looked around the service center, hoping to see that familiar figure.
"Ms. Zhao Xue, here is a letter from you. It was given to us by a gentleman, asking us to let you pick it up on the radio at 3:50." The staff member came from the service desk with a smile.
He took out a brown envelope from his drawer and handed it to Zhao Xue with both hands.
"Letter?" The happy expression on Zhao Xue's face instantly turned into shock. Her eyes slowly fell on the brown envelope, and she hesitated to reach out to pick it up.
Taozi glanced at Zhao Xue, hesitated, reached out to take the letter for her, smiled and said "thank you" to the staff, and then pulled Zhao Xue away.
After finding two empty seats in the airport lobby and sitting down, Taozi handed the brown envelope to Zhao Xue and whispered: "Open it and take a look..."
Zhao Xue finally let out a long sigh, her white fingers gently touched the brown envelope, and said with a trembling voice: "He left after all, Taozi, the moment I heard the broadcast just now, I actually thought he was
Just waiting for me at the service center, I thought he would say to me with a smile like usual, Xiaoxue, I was joking with you..."
Taozi looked at her silently. The sunlight at four o'clock in the afternoon passed through the transparent floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the airport and softly shone on Zhao Xue, as if coating her with a layer of golden light. Her silhouette glowed slightly in the sunlight.
It was bright, even the tips of her hair were shining with golden light, but the expression on her face was sad that Taozi had never seen before.
Although she kept saying that she had given up and would no longer be sad for him, after the small hopes and expectations in her heart were shattered, her already numb heart still felt severe pain.
Zhao Xue sat silently on the chair for a long time, so long that Taozi thought she would sit until dark, but in the end she opened the letter and took out the white letter paper from the brown envelope.
.
On the letter paper was Ling Yun's elegant and neat handwriting:
Xiaoxue, please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye.
These days, I have been afraid to see you
I'm afraid to see your smiling eyes
full of sadness
But those sorrows were all brought to you by me
This is the first time, I suddenly realized
In the face of reality, my promise to you is so fragile
I hate myself for not being able to stay by your side
The future is too far away, the road is confusing and full of variables
These days when I'm not with you
If someone could take my place and take care of you
Although I feel heartbroken, I am still grateful
After seven years, I will definitely come back
If at that time, the seat next to you is still empty
Just let me take care of you for the rest of your life, okay?
Zhao Xue looked at the letter paper in her hand. The white and black words on the letter paper were familiar handwriting. But why was her eyes getting blurry and clear, and the clearly clear handwriting gradually became a blur. One after another, crystal teardrops followed her.
The fair cheeks kept rolling down.
How many tears has she shed for him these days?
"Xiaoxue...are you really going to wait for him for seven years?" Taozi also saw what was written in the letter, hesitated for a moment, and then asked.
