The weather in the UK is particularly good today, the sky is blue as if it has been washed with water. Lin Jing is sitting in an outdoor cafe, looking at the children playing with pigeons in the square not far away, lowering his head to take a sip of coffee from time to time.
The coffee smells very fragrant, but it doesn't taste that good. There's too much creamer and the taste is a bit inferior.
The mobile phone was placed on the table beside him. Lin Jing was not like young people nowadays who can't let go of their mobile phones at all times.
It took her a long time before she glanced at the screen of her phone.
She had been waiting for almost half an hour, but she was not in a hurry. Instead, she raised her hand contentedly and ordered another cup of coffee that was not very good.
She didn't look like she was dating someone at all, but more like she was simply enjoying life in the sun on a nice afternoon.
When she finished her second cup of coffee, the person she made an appointment with finally arrived.
He Lin hurried by, probably at a trot, with a layer of sweat on his forehead. When he sat down, he panted: "I'm sorry, Lin Jing, I was delayed by something."
"It doesn't matter." After Lin Jing said this with a smile, he pushed the coffee order in front of He Lin: "Let me treat you."
He Lin was polite: "American style."
After ordering coffee, He Lin glanced at Lin Jing who was sitting across from him. He felt that she was a little different from usual, but he couldn't tell the specific reason. He felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart, "Lin Jing, you suddenly asked me out.
yes……"
Before He Lin finished speaking, Lin Jing raised his head and smiled: "I'm going back to China."
He Lin was stunned.
Lin Jing rolled his eyes: "Just tonight."
It took He Lin a while before he came back to his senses: "Didn't the company you're in now give you a salary increase? The prospects are so good, why do you suddenly think... or should I say that the country has given you better treatment..."
Lin Jing shook his head: "None of them."
He Lin opened his mouth, vaguely guessing Lin Jing's purpose of returning to China, but he said nothing.
Lin Jing looked at him quietly: "I originally wanted to go back."
After a pause, Lin Jing added, "From the day I left the country, I have been thinking about going back."
He Lin swallowed, his voice a little hoarse: "Because of him?"
Lin Jing nodded without hesitation and said without any hesitation: "Well, because of him."
He Lin clenched the coffee cup with his fingertips, "It's been so long, maybe he has forgotten you."
"But I haven't forgotten him." Lin Jing seemed to recall that person, the smile on his lips was a little gentle.
Not only have I not forgotten him.
I even miss him very much.
There was silence between the two for a long time. He Lin raised his head and said, "Lin Jing, you can return to China a few days later. I will go with you."
Lin Jing refused simply, "No."
He Lin opened his mouth, still wanting to say something.
Before he could say anything, Lin Jing looked directly into his eyes and spoke first: "It was you who called my mother at the beginning."
He Lin froze as he was about to drink coffee.
Lin Jing seemed to be talking about something else and said without any emotion: "I went to look for him that day and stayed up all night. You asked Lan Tingting about it in a roundabout way. After knowing about it, you pretended to be looking for me.
, called my mother, and then treated it like a casual conversation and mentioned that I didn’t go to be an exchange student.”
"He Lin, I know all these things."
"I just didn't expose you. Just like in the past two years, I know what you are thinking in your heart. You are thinking that as long as you stay with me, as long as the two of us do not return to the country, as long as time passes, I have nothing better.
Choice, I can only choose you."
"But He Lin, I didn't stay with him because of choice."
He Lin is a smart man, and Lin Jing knows that some things don't need to be said too straightforwardly, so he understands.
It's not that she doesn't thank him, he still gave her some help during these years in a foreign country.
When Jiang Wan was alive, He Lin knew that she didn't like him coming to see Jiang Wan and always came when she wasn't around. Jiang Wan also liked him quite a bit and felt that he was someone worth trusting for life, so he mentioned it in front of her.
He Lin several times.
She didn't answer the call simply because she didn't want to quarrel with Jiang Wan. Jiang Wan's illness couldn't be cured. When she came to England, she knew that her time was running out. She didn't want to cause a quarrel between mother and daughter in her last days.
Arrows and crossbows were drawn.
Jiang Wan could actually see what her plans were, and knew that she was simply fulfilling her filial piety, and wanted her to finish the last journey of her life well, and then go back to the grand occasion without any worries.
At first, Jiang Wan got into a mood a few times and asked her if she had not let go of the grand occasion yet. She always calmly said no. Jiang Wan could see that she was telling the truth, but there was nothing he could do with her. Maybe it was because time was not enough.
Jiang Wan didn't want to leave a bad impression on her daughter, so she stopped mentioning it over time.
Mother and daughter just pretend to be confused, but they can still get along, and they can still get along harmoniously.
Lin Jing didn't do things so well. After Jiang Wan left, she didn't go back immediately. She stayed in the UK for half a year to complete her studies and internship.
In the past two years, she has been informed of the latest developments almost every day.
The YLS team has become the number one team in the past two years and has won numerous awards. The once high-spirited young man is now an unsurpassable god-like existence.
In the past two years, she had gone to watch his games live, and she had fantasized about telling some stories just like the time she met him there.
But there was some fate, it happened once in a lifetime, and she and he never crossed paths again.
She sat in the audience and looked at him from a distance, just like the fans next to her, just like she was when she didn't know him, she was one of his many fans.
She never attracted his attention again.
Before Lin Jing returned to China, he had already contacted Lan Tingting.
Lan Tingting helped her rent a house and buy all the supplies for her home. She could move in as soon as she got off the plane when she returned to China.
She lived in the same community as Lan Tingting. Lan Tingting was at work. She was also very tired after the long flight. She went home, took a hot bath, put on an eye mask and started to catch up on her sleep.
She thought she would be woken up by Lan Tingting, who knew the password to this house, but she didn't expect that it was a phone call that woke her up.
It was a phone call from a senior girl I met in the UK. After returning to China, she joined Honor of Kings and is now responsible for some skin design there. This senior girl knew that she was very talented in painting and asked her last year if she would be willing to design some skins.
She wanted a new skin, and she agreed with a little selfishness.
I didn’t expect that the skins she designed were really popular.
The senior sister learned that she had returned to China and happened to be on a business trip to BJ, so she called her as soon as she had some free time.
Lin Jing had slept enough and wasn't that tired anymore. The senior sister was going back to Chengdu tomorrow and they made an appointment near her home. She couldn't refuse. After saying yes to the senior sister, she went to wash up.
At dinner in the evening, the senior sister was alone. The two of them had a simple light meal. After that, the senior sister suggested that they go to the bar to sit for a while.
On the way, my senior chatted with her about new skins and said that she wanted her to help design the KPL championship skin for this year's spring competition.
When Lin Jing heard this, his fingers trembled, and he asked knowingly: "Which player, which hero?"
The senior didn’t know that she and Sheng Kuang knew each other, “Who else could it be? The most popular professional player right now, the captain of the YLS team, Sheng Kuang, this time the MVP hero is Lan.”
